“Joyce did a great job with Bellini. She regularly sent me images and updates on my pet's behavior throughout my time away. Communicative, reliable, and an obvious pet lover - I felt confident my cat and my home were in good hands during my vacation. I'll definitely be working with Joyce again in the future. 5 star recommend!!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Anthony! He cared for our severely injured pup with the utmost compassion, patience, and professionalism. From the very start, Anthony followed every single care instruction with precision, making sure our dog was comfortable, safe, and on track with recovery. Beyond just being attentive, he showed our pup so much genuine love and affection—it truly gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in the best hands possible. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet as if they were their own, but that’s exactly what Anthony did. We are beyond grateful for his kindness and dedication, and we couldn’t feel more appreciative. We are already looking forward to having him doggy sit for us again in the future. Thank you for everything, Anthony!”
About: Fur babies love that I genuinely offer love and care at first sight and touch. With more than 10 years of first hand experience and knowledge, I truly enjoy interacting with the most intelligent, loyal, and loving creatures of them all. I have great pet care experience in: bath & grooming, tick & flea removal, and hair dematting. Also, I have experience administering medications. My key objective is to keep your fur baby comfortable and happy every minute under my watch. I have a flexible schedule with open extra early or late bookings for weekdays and weekends. I truly believe our beloved fur babies have a 6th sense and they will always be the best judge when sniffing people out if you get what I mean.
“Viviana was amazing with our puppy, Ollie! It’s clear that she has a true love for animals and is committed to providing excellent care. She’s also knowledgeable and gave us great feedback on what to expect during this stage (it’s our first time raising a puppy). I would have her watch Ollie again soon, and I would recommend Viviana to others in a heartbeat!”
“Jordan was amazing! My senior citizen has a history of bad anxiety especially around the Fourth of July with the fireworks but Jordan kept me reassured that my boy was doing great and that made me at peace while I was away, which is all I can ever ask for while I’m away. She sent pictures and updates and I would definitely reuse her again.”
“Always such a pleasure to see Victoria. Our husky, Mika, absolutely loves her. Her dog, Nova, is the sweetest too. Victoria is so wonderful with Mika and makes sure that she has a safe and fun time! Highly recommend.”
“Five stars isn’t enough. We’ve had great dog sitters, but Beverly blew us away with her kind, thoughtful, and communicative approach. We’ve never felt more comfortable and confident leaving our home and dog in her extremely capable hands. Thank you, Beverly! Will book again and again.”
About: We’re a fun, family home with lots of love to give! Your pup will enjoy playtime, snuggles, and a cozy environment where they’re treated like one of our own. I believe in gentle care, clear communication and making sure you feel comfortable while you’re away Because I work part-time and my husband works from home, there is consistent supervision in our house. Pet care easily fits into our daily rhythm. we’re already used to giving lots of love and attention. Feedings when scheduled.Your pet would be part of our normal family life, not left alone for long stretches. In our home, pets become part of our family’s daily routine. I keep feeding schedules consistent with what they’re used to, provide supervised playtime, outdoor patio breaks, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or shy and need a quieter space. Safety is very important to me, so all interactions with my children and our cat are gentle and supervised, and pets are never left outside unattended. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.
About: My name is Abby and I am 30 years old. During the year, I am a teacher but I love to jump into these side jobs to make a little extra income. I love all dogs! I have had 3 long term dogs join my family over the past 12 years who are family to me. As of right now, I own a wiener dog who loves to hike, swim and go on runs with me. I love giving dogs cuddles, tummy rubs, and walks. Dogs with energy don't stand a chance with me since I spend lots of time with my sisters Australian Shepard. Big dogs don't scare me either as my dad has had both Great Danes and Dobermans as our family dogs growing up. I am currently a teacher on summer break, so pet care takes priority for my little dog currently. I try to make sure my dog goes outside for a walk at least 3 times a day. My complex has its own Dog Park on the property with 2 other parks near by as well. All 3 are well fenced in to provide security.
“We cannot recommend Carissa highly enough! From our initial meet-and-greet, we knew Cadbury would be in great hands. What impressed us the most was Carissa's attentiveness and care. She took the time to ask detailed questions about Cadbury’s daily routines and personality traits. Carissa sent regular updates, complete with photos which completely eased our worries about leaving Cadbury at home for a week. When we returned home, our house was perfectly clean, and it was evident Cadbury had received plenty of love, attention, and exercise. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is responsible, compassionate, and truly loves dogs, look no further than Carissa. She provides a top-notch service and gives you complete peace of mind. We will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”
“Justine was so amazing! I didn’t have a single worry while I was gone because I knew my girls were in good hands. She sent me lots of pictures and kept the house super clean. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Monica was great. She was not only attentive to our pup’s needs, but Monica genuinely enjoyed her time with her. She sent pictures or texts to me daily which put my mind at ease. And on top of that, she left my house in tip top shape, sparkling clean! I would highly recommend Monica as a sitter for your pet.”

“Devanna was so good with our wild Weim and also took such good care of our other animals as well! She left our home spotless as well and our pup seemed very happy (and tired) when we returned from our trip. Thank you Dev for such a great first overnight visit with Biggie! We’ll definitely see you again soon 🥰”
About: Hi, I’m Lennon. I’m an 18 year old girl who loves animals. I have 4 dogs and a bunny of my own and I love taking care of them and my family’s pets. I have an extreme passion for taking care of animals and I am extremely patient with animals even with some behavioral issues, they all deserve love. Your animals safety is my first priority and I’m always open to learning different training techniques to what suits your pet the best individually! This is my part time job, so caring for your pets is my main priority! I go to school at Citrus College but mainly online and my schedule is very flexible.

I will never let your pets off leash unless specifically told to. I never play with dogs after they eat, especially big dogs for their safety. I know how to train young and old dogs the basic commands. If you have any specific instructions or needs, let me know!
“Isabella was beyond incredible with my four-year-old husky. She took the time and effort to make sure my husky was well stimulated and exercised. Isabella is great at communication, sending photos and updates throughout the day. She also took care of my house and followed the rules. Isabella also went above and beyond and helped Nyra get more comfortable being in a crate. I highly recommend her services!!”
“I am incredibly grateful to have found Tammy as my dog sitter. I have two Shiba Inus, one very naughty and one very shy, and Tammy has been exceptional in taking care of them. She provided daily updates with pictures and videos, keeping me informed about their eating and sleeping habits. Tammy took them out for walks, played fetch with them, and made sure they felt loved and comfortable. Despite my dogs not being leash-free and having poor recall, I never had to worry about them running away under Tammy’s care. She managed them wonderfully, and they LOVE her. I highly recommend Tammy for anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“What a great experience. Yasmin did such a great job. We immediately felt comfortable and couple tell she was exceptional with dogs. We would highly recommend her and 100% will utilize her services again.”
About: I have taken care of pets and been around pets since I was a child. I mainly specialize in cats but I have experience with medium and little sized dogs too. I have had my own 2 kitties for about 8 years. I am a gig worker and I love having flexibility. It is great for being able to drop in and play with your animals or feed them. With my knack for attention to detail I can easily pay mind to any specific instructions I may need to follow. I give my pets love, patience and understanding and would treat your animals with the same respect I give my own.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I am a responsible and dependable animal lover who understands that pets are an important part of the family. I grew up on a farm with several animals. I have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, and other furry friends, which has given me a good understanding of animal behavior. This experience taught me the importance of how animals have different needs and personalities. Therefore, I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and needs. So, I understand the importance of following instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and any special care. I work from home, and I can keep an eye on your pet while working. However, If this is an issue, I fully understand. I am available after 5 PM for my full attention. I am available overnights on Thursdays and free most of Fridays. I will do my best to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide dependable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I will follow all household instructions, respect your home, and contact you immediately if I notice any changes in your pet’s behavior or health.

Jaylin and Isaiah housesat and took care of my sweet anxious dog, Magpie while I was out of town. I returned home to a completely spotless house, towels folded, and a relaxed dog who was listening to some zen dog calming youtube videos, which I thought was extra sweet and thoughtful. They were great communicators and sent me lots of cute picture updates. I'd definitely book them again!
As always, we felt completely comfortable knowing Gio was caring for our dog and cat. He sends regular photos and communicates clearly, which we really appreciate. He also took great care of our home and followed all instructions perfectly. Having that kind of peace of mind while traveling is invaluable. Our pets absolutely love Gio!
Joyce is amazing! My babies warmed up to her immediately 🤗. I’m very picky about who I trust with my dogs, but I felt completely comfortable with Joyce from the start. She sent me pictures throughout her time with them, which I absolutely loved as a crazy dog mom! I highly recommend Joyce.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Covina on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 15,055 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Covina. 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 Covina 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 Covina 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 Covina 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 Covina. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
