“Kelsy was amazing with the dogs! She took them for lots of walks and I could tell they loved her. She was very communicative, on time, and extra caring. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Kirk was amazing with our dog Baxter. He stayed at our place and was very communicative about how Baxter was doing. He took Baxter out for all his favorite walks and made sure Baxter was feeling loved. He left our place spotless when he left and we could tell Baxter was happy. We will use Kirk again and again. He is great.”
About: I bring nearly 10 years of experience caring for homes and pets, from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’m skilled in puppy training, senior pet care, and understanding each animal’s unique needs. As a Mindset & Mental Health coach, I naturally bring patience, calm, and strong intuition, ensuring pets feel safe and loved. Known for my reliability, warmth, and attention to detail, I give homeowners complete peace of mind while they’re away. I work fully remote as a Mindset & Mental Health coach, which gives me a flexible daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate plenty of focused time to your pets—feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship—while also keeping your home tidy and well cared for. My remote work schedule ensures I’m consistently present, attentive, and available to respond to any needs as they arise. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I prefer to sit at clients’ homes, keeping pets in the comfort of their familiar surroundings and routines. I care for them just as if they were my own—providing companionship, attention, and affection while ensuring their space is clean, secure, and stress-free. My goal is for both pets and homeowners to feel completely at ease while I’m caring for them.
About: I've shared my life with animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds and currently have a senior Husky named Aurora, so I've experienced everything from raising high-energy working dogs to caring for an older dog with changing needs. Those experiences have taught me that no two animals are alike. One of the things I love most about caring for pets is getting to know their individual personalities. Some dogs want to spend every minute playing fetch, while others are happiest taking a slow walk and taking in the world around them. Some cats will curl up beside you immediately, while others prefer to earn your trust on their own terms. I believe great pet care starts with understanding and respecting each animal for who they are rather than expecting them all to be the same. When I'm caring for your pet, my goal isn't just to make sure they're fed and exercised—it's to make sure they feel comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I pay attention to their routines, quirks, preferences, and body language so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave a beloved animal in someone else's care. Aurora has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting to a pet's unique needs, especially as they get older. Whether I'm caring for an energetic puppy, a large-breed dog, a senior pet, or a cat that needs a little extra patience, I approach every animal with the same respect, attentiveness, and affection I would want for my own. I also offer overnight house sitting and understand that caring for a home is part of caring for a pet. I'm happy to help with small household tasks such as bringing in mail, watering plants, taking out trash bins, and keeping an eye on things while you're away so you can travel with greater peace of mind. I look forward to meeting your pets, learning their personalities, and providing them with a safe, comfortable, and loving experience while you're away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight visits, and I make it a priority to be responsive, reliable, and attentive to each pet's individual needs. For house sitting, I spend quality time with pets and do my best to maintain their normal routine and environment. I understand that consistency is important, and I strive to provide attentive care and regular updates so owners can enjoy peace of mind while they're away. One of the biggest things I've learned from growing up with German Shepherds and caring for my senior Husky, Aurora, is that every animal has their own personality, preferences, and way of communicating. Some pets are immediately social and affectionate, while others take time to build trust. Some thrive on activity and adventure, while others prefer a calm routine and familiar surroundings. When caring for your pet, I take the time to understand what makes them comfortable rather than treating every animal the same way. I pay attention to their body language, habits, energy level, and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar, safe, and stress-free. Whether I'm walking your dog, stopping by for a visit, caring for your cat, or house sitting while you're away, my goal is to provide a calm, dependable presence and maintain the routine your pet knows and trusts. For walks, I prioritize safety, use secure leashing practices, stay aware of my surroundings, and adjust the pace and activity level to fit each dog's age, energy level, and comfort. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. During house sitting visits, I'm also happy to help with small household tasks such as bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping an eye on things while you're away. I believe great pet care is built on patience, consistency, communication, and earning an animal's trust. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, confident, and cared for from the moment we meet.

About: Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m based right in CDM steps from Crystal Cove, and I absolutely love what I do. My days are spent walking the coast, hiking the trails, and giving dogs the kind of attention and care that actually makes a difference. It’s genuinely my favorite part of my day. I’ve had dogs of my own for 15+ years and have experience with a wide range of breeds I can read body language, understand what a dog needs in the moment, and adjust on the fly. I have a special love for working breeds and high-energy dogs who actually want to do something on a walk. I work from home running a wellness business, so your dog gets real time and presence not someone rushing between jobs. Walks with me mean actual coastal adventures: Crystal Cove trails, Little Corona Beach, tide pool paths with ocean views. I’m an early riser, I keep a consistent schedule, and I pay attention to how your dog is feeling that day. My home is calm, clean, and non-toxic that’s just how I live. Good energy, no chaos, and plenty of cozy spots to decompress between adventures. You’ll get photos and updates so you always know they’re happy and well. I keep my roster small because I actually want to know your dog their quirks, their favorite spots, what makes them light up. Whether you need a reliable daily walker or someone to love on them while you travel, I’d love to meet them! 🐾 Working from home in my fitness & nutrition business means pets get constant attention and care. It's a daily dose of exercise and joy that complements my healthy lifestyle. Walks, fetch, or just quiet moments, pets make my day and yours brighter! When it comes to pet care, it's all about their turf. I'm a firm believer in maintaining their routine at home, where they're comfy and happy. I seamlessly fit into their schedule, whether it's mealtime, playtime, or cuddle time. Rest assured, your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities!
About: I am a certified animal communicator and reiki practitioner with over 10 years of experience. However I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for senior dogs as well as those with vision and hearing impairment. I also volunteer my communication services to animal rescues to help dogs exhibiting puzzling behavior be heard. In addition I work as an animal transporter for several rescues, so I guess you could say I’m a professional canine chauffeur! I have experience working with a wide range of ages and breeds. So be it a pittie puppy, a middle aged pug, or a senior chihuahua, I am comfortable with them all and will ensure your pup feels safe, happy, and secure while you are away. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible which allows me to accommodate your pup’s unique schedule and playtime needs. Whether they are an early bird or a night owl, I’ve got you covered! When caring for your fur baby in the comfort of their own home, I acknowledge that I am the new comer coming into their space. I always take it slow and allow the animal to share what they wish to with me, just as you would with a young child. This establishes a foundation of trust that we can build upon.
“Julie is amazing! She was able to accommodate our last minute booking request and saved our plans to attend a music festival. She was kind and patient with our fur baby. We will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Gina was an amazing caregiver to my older diabetic Yorkie and young cat! She took such great care of them and my house. And also sent thoughtful updates and pics. I will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I love all to get all the details, any special scratches, snuggles, cuddles, rubs, hugs or nicknames Fido or Fifi prefers Please Let me Know. I want to provide the same comfort a beloved family member might. Obviously, no one can replace their real Mom or Dad, but I like to try! 4 Paws Up! I have experience administering medications, if necessary. Hopefully it's just walks, fun. snuggles, and maybe a treat or two. 😄 I have a flexible schedule at the moment. I look forward to helping your pets at the appropriate time to keep them healthy and happy. I'll read and reread any notes or instructions left for me, so I can care and keep you fur baby safe and sound. I'm great at keeping an eye on the house, locking up and hanging out with your pets for a good night's sleep. I don't drink and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
“Danielle did an amazing job watching Brandy at my home. She was reliable, respectful of my space, and gave Brandy lots of love and attention. I really appreciated her regular updates and photos—it was such a relief knowing both my pup and my home were in great hands. I came back to a happy dog and a tidy home. I’d highly recommend Danielle and would be glad to book her again!”
“Alyssa was such a great dog sitter and house sitter! She was with my Petey boy for a week and I can tell he was in such good hands. Petey can be anxious with separation anxiety and I can tell from the pictures Alyssa sent me that Petey felt very safe and happy! I couldn’t recommend Alyssa enough, she’s very much a dog person and the ideal dog sitter/ house sitter. Alyssa also took care of my house very well. She took out trash cans and managed instructions well. I’m definitely booking with her again!”
“Patrick and Samantha were wonderful! They gave me lots of updates, and my puppy looked like she was having a blast while we were away. I highly recommend them!!”
“Otis had a great time with Melissa! She was punctual, friendly, and had excellent communication both before and during her stay. She even sent photo updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Otis was instantly comfortable with her - always a great sign as a pet parent. Since this was my first time using Rover, we did a video call beforehand, and I really appreciated how thorough she was in asking about Otis’s needs, behavior, favorite toys, and what to watch for while he’s recovering from an eye injury to ensure he was doing well.”
“Katya is wonderful. She was so attentive to my pups. One of my dogs has possible kidney disease and needs to go out to pee often. Katya was so patient and attentive in taking care of him. She left my house in great shape - and she kept me filled in with photos and texts all the time. Superb!”
“Danna was great!! We loved the meet and greet we had with her prior to watching our dogs. We felt extremely comfortable with her in our home and the care we felt strongly that she would extend to our dogs. We were not disappointed. We will definitely reach out to Rover in the future and specifically ask for Danna. I would highly recommend Danna. You will not be disappointed. She will keep you informed regularly and send you pictures of your babies throughout the day. ?????”
About: I currently two large weimeraners and had another one before them! I love animals and have been taking care of my own since I was old enough to walk and feed them! I can assist in training, take dogs on walks and runs, and am a trustworthy and loyal person to dogsit. I’m currently working part-time, with a lot of flexibility! I can walk and be a sitter for animals very frequently until the end of August! My dogs are walked 3-4 times a day by either me or somebody else in my home! They are extremely well cared for and loved! I have walked dogs for other people since I was 13! I am currently 20, and still love animals and am hoping to help out in any way I am needed!
About: I have three rescued pets at home: an 8-year-old (reactive) lab mix, a super friendly 8-year-old cat, and a shy 4-year-old cat. This gives me a pretty good idea of how to handle different pet personalities! My pup needs some extra care and attention, which has taught me how to manage reactive behaviors and create safe spaces by reinforcing routines. I also know how to help shy pets feel comfortable and secure. What makes me stand out is my ability to cater to each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s using positive reinforcement for training or just providing a cozy, loving environment. I’m all about making sure your pets feel happy and relaxed while you’re away! I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets! I have plenty of availability throughout the day for drop-ins or walks; just let me know what you need. When it comes to caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, trust, and keeping a calm environment. I stick to their routines (like feeding and walking schedules) and use their favorite toys to help them feel comfortable. Safety is super important, so I’m dedicated to creating a secure space for your pets. I really believe in getting to know each pet and understanding their unique needs and behaviors, which helps me anticipate any situations that might come up. Building trust is essential, so I take the time to make sure they feel relaxed and at ease with me. Overall, my goal is to provide loving and attentive care that keeps your pets happy while you’re away!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Corona del Mar
Roxanne and Eduardo take such good care of our older golden! We have used them several times and highly recommend them. We were particularly thankful for the good care this weekend as we were away at our son‘s wedding. It was so nice to have a reliable pet sitter!
Alyssa took wonderful care of my two pups, with periodic updates on their walks, meals and how their day went. Lots of photos too, which put me at ease. She was easy to communicate with, and she set up a meet and greet so the pups could get to know her prior to the sit.
Valerie is AMAZING! She provided great care for our sweet pup while we were out of town. So much so that we’ve already booked her again twice! She stayed in our home and took great care of the house, too. She sent lots of photos of our pup and our dog was so happy when we got home. Highly recommend!
Camden is absolutely terrific and I can not express enough thanks for the phenomenal care she provided while I was away. She house sat at my place for 9 days with Rowan while I was on a cruise. This was my first time I had been away that long so was nervous and not only that but Rowan had come down with pancreatitis the week I was leaving but was a few days on his medication and was almost fully better. Two days into my trip; however, Rowan’s health turned downward out of nowhere and he got extremely sick. He went from eating, drinking, being his playful normal self to not even wanting to move. Camden coordinated with Rowan’s primary vet as well as myself to provide him the urgent care he needed to get him better. She went above and beyond and I am so thankful to her. Camden is without a doubt who you want to take care of your animal and who will provide them with the same level of care and love as you would. I have the utmost trust in her abilities. Thank you, Camden!!!! Rowan misses you already.
Vi is awesome! She is very sweet with our very old kitty and our two pups. We were on a trip when our kitty got sick and Vi managed the situation perfectly. She treated him with loving care until we returned home (he’s okay). She is thorough and pays attention to detail. The best part about her is that our pets love her.
Jessica stayed at my apartment to watch my dog Toby, and she was an excellent sitter. Toby is sometimes anxious around new people, but Jessica made him (and myself) feel at ease. She was able to adapt to his needs, whether it was going for a walk or letting him sleep on the couch. She sent the cutest photos and was very responsive. I will definitely reach out to her again, and Toby LOVED her.
I'm thrilled to have found Savannah and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. She is responsible and went above and beyond keeping my home clean (she even made my bed with new fresh sheets!). She sent lots of updates and pictures and my pup loved her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Corona del Mar
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Corona del Mar on Rover is $69.93 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,935 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Corona del Mar. 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 Corona del Mar 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 Corona del Mar 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 Corona del Mar 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Corona del Mar. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
