About: My favorite approach is with open arms through pure interest, curiosity, & patience to make friends with & show they are safe & sound with me. Right now i’m very available to a flexible daily & weekly schedule on the fly & can work with same day changes if need be. Nothing is more important than the safety of our furry friends, i’ve had a lot of experience working with crating, housing or backyard work with animals.
“Rey was absolutely amazing with Cooper, Louie, and Elton! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and incredibly kind. We could tell right away that she truly cares about animals. She gave us regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our pups were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved their time with her. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Rey again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 9 years old, and have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of dogs, cats, and reptiles for friends and family. I am currently looking for a part-time job, but my schedule is generally free to work around when your pet will need care. I am willing to adapt and switch up my schedule to have your pet be my priority. I am familiar with crate training, and I have a great understanding of pet behavior. I have worked with a variety of different animals, each with very unique personalities, and their safety and trust is my priority.
“Rhondee was amazing! She took excellent care of pups. They were happy and looked great when I got home from my vacation. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Bonnie stayed at our home and cared for our senior dog for about 2 weeks while we were away. Bonnie did great following all instructions for our dogs’ care needs, and we felt comfortable with her staying in our home! She worked with our dog when she was being picky, and we would feel comfortable working with her again!!”
“My large rambunctious dog loves Joy. Joy walked and snuggled both my boys. Received daily walk emails, updates and pictures on a small medical issue that Joy monitored for us and lots of pictures.”
“Anthony was very flexible with our schedule. He sent us updates and pictures throughout the weekend. I am very happy with the care he provided for my pets. We will definitely contact him again. 😊”
“Jessica was amazing. From the meet and greet on, our 80# male pitbull LOVED her! Most people shy away from Reggie, for good reason, he is not nice with new people. Jessica within a few minutes had Reggie's attention and he loved her. We got updates everyday with pictures, which put our minds at ease. We came home to a very happy and healthy boy. The house was immaculate, very hard to tell someone was living there 24/7 with our pup!! I HIGHLY recommend Jessica for house sitting/pet sitting. She will be hearing from us very soon!!”
About: I’m a certified personal trainer with a lifelong love for animals. Whether I’m working or filling my days with something I truly enjoy, providing active, attentive care for your pets is a top priority. At home, I share my space with my dogs and cat, so I’m completely used to managing a multi-pet household. I love keeping animals mentally and physically stimulated, whether that’s playing fetch, working on training, or giving cats some quality, calming attention. My availability can vary from week to week, but I am fully dedicated and communicative with every client to make sure my schedule matches your pet's needs. Please reach out to check specific dates and times! At home, I have a spacious backyard and a multi-pet household with dogs and a cat. I regularly spend time playing, training, and caring for them in a secure environment. Whether I'm caring for pets at your place or mine, I ensure a safe, structured, and comfortable space tailored to their needs.
“Don was great with both my dog, Neko, and my Cat, Teri. He sent videos regularly and keep me informed about Neko and especially how Teri were doing. Also, Don went out of his way to care for Teri, my cat. Teri has kidney disease and requires hydration with a saline solution every day. Don was wonderful with Teri by injecting the solution under his skin. This was accomplished by placing a needle under Teri's loose skin and slowly allowing the saline solution to flow under his skin. Don is very personable and I recommend him very highly for caring for your pet.”
“Rebecca communicated clearly with us throughout the process. Misty fell in love with her! I was worried she’d be crying at the door. Nope, she was asleep on Rebecca’s lap instead. What a relief. We look forward to return visits.”
“Renee, as usual, was wonderful. She sent photos daily and we were so happy to see our Georgie having such nice walks. She is so reliable about giving medications which is critical. We also travel with peace of mind when Renee is tending to our pups...”
About: I’ve cared for all types of pets—cats, dogs, birds, fish, and even a chameleon! I love animals and currently own multiple pets, giving me hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I provide attentive, reliable care for both young and senior animals. I can provide morning care, and depending on your needs, afternoon, late-night, or overnight stays. I’m flexible and prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their routine! I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. I care for cats, dogs, fish, and even a chameleon, following all instructions and supervising play to ensure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and secure. Fun fact! I also volunteer once or twice a week at pet smart with the cats and feed them and take care of them for an hour!
“Ana is a doggie parent’s dream! Kind, trustworthy, and dependable! Our 2 dogs loved Ana!!! Ana followed our wishes exactly- medicine, feeding and play time! The house was in order and pleasant to come home to!”
“Christine was absolutely wonderful, she was very timely, organized, tons of communication leading up to our trip and that continued while we were gone. She gave us frequent updates with tons of pictures. It was a great experience for us and our 3 animals. Would use her again 100%, I would highly recommend to anyone.”
About: I've been a dog sitter for almost five years , have experience in making your dog feel at home and not stressed out. Your dog will want to come back, and my home will be their second home. I telework , and and home most of the time. I live in the second largest city in the county with lots of dog parks. My home is perfect for dogs, I do not have carpet so if your dog has an accident I can clean it up very easily. Also your dog is welcomed to sit on any part of my home, unless instructed by owner otherwise.
“Mikayla was absolutely perfect for our first time ever leaving Woody! It was so nice for Woody to be in our home, safe and sound and in his normal routine. Mikayla was a perfect fit our rambunctious puppy! She took everything in stride, communicated openly and despite us both labeling Woody as Wild Woody she agreed to come back ?? She is a lovely young woman that has an obvious love for animals and a patient, gentle way of showing it!”
“Our dog, Winnie is thrilled when Kimberly comes to care for her and so are we. On time, dedicated care, true love of animals and personal kindness make Kimberly a perfect fit for us!”

Melinda is so amazing, she communicated with me the entire time I was away that she stayed with my pups. She is such a nice and sweet person, so of course my two dogs loved her as well! Would highly recommend her and I will definitely be booking with her again.
Reyanah house sat for us and looked after our dog Violet and cat Finneas. We booked her based on the reviews we read here on Rover. We told her the most important thing to us was piece of mind - knowing our pets and home would be taken care of and that we would know this by her communicating with us often. She did exactly this and we were more than satisfied with the work she did and our overall experience. She did a great job.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Coachella on Rover is $52.73 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 427 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Coachella. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Coachella walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Coachella maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Coachella choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
