“Meng was amazing! She made everything so easy with great communication and was super flexible about meeting up beforehand. I loved getting all the cute pictures of my dog while I was away. Such a great experience overall.”
About: I grew up around animals (dogs, cats, horses, snakes) and worked at a doggy daycare for 5 years while in college. I walked dogs of all sizes and ages! I am a full-time pet parent, part-time technical recruiter, and forever animal lover! My weekday schedule is flexible, so I have lots of time to pamper your pooch! As someone who grew up around all kinds of animals from birth, I know how to take care of a lot of types of animals (from horses and snakes, to cats and dogs). When I worked at a doggy daycare, I walked dogs from 5 pounds to 150+ pounds.
“Amanda did a great job taking care of my pup for the weekend. She was responsible, communicative and took great care with her. She even got her some medicine for a cut. Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and energy levels, including puppies and senior pets. I can help with basic puppy training, reinforcing good habits, maintaining feeding and walking routines, and providing extra patience and care for older pets. I’m also attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means extra playtime, exercise, companionship, or simply giving them a calm and comfortable environment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is being treated like family while they’re in my care. As of now pet care is my only priority. I’m available everyday of the week at any time. I’m willing to work with yours and your pets schedule. I care for pets by keeping them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. In my client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific routines or preferences their pet has.
About: I love dogs! I would want a bernedoodle because they are so cute. I always wanted a dog, but my parents never gave me one growing up. So I would always go to my friends house and play with their dog. I hang out with my brothers girlfriends dog (pug), daily. I have experience in house sitting/dog sitting for a few years. I am pretty flexible, as long as there is constant communication. I am a loving and caring person. One thing I love to do with dogs is to cuddle. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to take a dog for walks and play with them. I have a pug that lives with me, so I take care of him a few days during the week. Pretty lowkey. I live in an apartment so it’s pretty small to have play. I love taking my roommates pug to the dog park or to the beach and get some sunshine and play.
About: I’ve cared for a few friends’ pets for years and housesit when they travel, so I figured I would make it a regular thing! Mostly I've watched cats and dogs, but I’ve cared for many different animals in various capacities, including rabbits, hamsters, turtles, and fish. I'm also happy to do various house chores and preferred upkeep while you’re away! I work in office Monday-Friday in Culver City, but my hours are somewhat flexible. As long as your pups can be alone for 6 hours or less, I can be there to walk them before and after! My weekends are generally free, especially with advance notice when I can save time for activities with the animals. I care for pets in their home environments and stick to whatever instructions pet parents leave for me. I understand the trust required to welcome someone into your home and take care of your pets and I always try to honor that and leave each place as I found it, or better.
“Aolani was absolutely wonderful! She did an outstanding job caring for Waffles and Pancakes and took such great care of our home while we were away. She also handled several unexpected house emergencies with professionalism, good judgment, and incredible helpfulness. She truly went above and beyond, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Aolani is responsible, reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the pets and homes entrusted to her. I am incredibly grateful for everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional pet and house sitter.”
“We just took our first family vacation since pre-pandemic, and it was a huge relief to leave our furbabies in Kim's loving care. She stayed overnight for a whole week with our pup and senior kitty. I was worried about our cat turning 19 while we were away because he was losing weight before our trip. When we returned, he had gained weight, and he looked healthier. Kim has a magic touch! She also cared for our guinea pigs, which are rather high maintenance, so I am very appreciative of her dedication to them. I'm so glad we found Kim so we have a trusted sitter for our next trip.”
“Shontel was absolutely the best and I will definitely rebook her as well as seek her out! She was so sweet with my two little ones who just absolutely adored her. Great energy and super reliable with messages and pictures! Came back and I think my dogs wished it was her! Seriously the best!!”
“Sam was amazing! Her communication is quick and clear. She is warm, friendly and smart. We left her with our year old dog (who can be quite high maintenance, and our senior cat while we were out of town, and Sam gave frequent updates and photos. If she had questions, they were always of a nature that let me know she was mature, and taking good care of our pets as well as our house. Everything was clean when we returned and our pets were happy! Highly recommend Sam🙏”
“Robert is so very amenable. He was so helpful in a pinch and went ABOVE AND BEYOND. He is a great fit. My pup and cat loved him. He was right on schedule with all their needs and got them up and moving and staying healthy!”
About: Attentive, reliable care tailored to your pet’s unique personality: experienced with daily medications, safe walking routines, and giving extra devoted attention to keep tails happily wagging. Midday care is built right into my daily schedule. I offer dependable lunchtime drop-ins, exercise walks, and bathroom breaks to keep your pet happy and stimulated while you are at work. Safety, routine, and clear communication are the foundation of my care. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure all environments are secure, hazard-free, and clean. I strictly honor your pet's feeding, medication, and exercise guidelines, keeping their days structured and low-stress. On walks, I practice cautious, leashed safety and attentive monitoring. Most importantly, I keep you connected with frequent photos and updates every step of the way.
“Jebraune is our go to cat sitter now. She is respectful of our home and spoils our two cats! We get timely updates and she goes above and beyond to ensure the cats are happy. She has even been helping us train our cats since one is new to the house. Thank you!!”
About: Hi, I have a 11 year old husky and have had multiple dogs and cats throughout my life. I work as a nurse and would like to offer my care to not just humans but also our animal companions! I am comfortable with puppies, seniors, medication administration. I have raised about 6 puppies and 3 kittens familiar with multiple breeds including huskies, goldens, GSD, Aussies, Danes, etc. I work from home as a psych nurse practitioner. Therefore my schedule is very flexible and would love to take care of your pets while you are away. (If you are interested in medication management please let me know!) I go to the dog park with my husky everyday, if you prefer walks we can walk around the neighborhood or drive to a park to walk and have a change of scenery. I am very flexible so just let me know what you would prefer for your furry friend!
“First time with Stephanie house-sitting for my 15yo beagle and it was a huge success! Great communication, easy and flexible. Stephanie followed all instructions to a tee and I came home to a happy pup and a pristine home, will definitely book again!”
“Stephanie was a great cat sitter. She really helped us out when another Rover sitter canceled and it was getting closer to our departure. She responded immediately and we set up a meet and greet. All went well and we booked her that day. I didn't manage my time effectively and ended up leaving a small note about staying at our apartment and our cat Meka. No problem, we were able to communicate through text and she just knew what to do anyway. She sent pictures every morning and also extra ones with cute poses. I could see Meka had made a new friend. Our plane got in late and she stayed to make sure the cat was feed. Everything was in order and our plants were even taken care of. Don't hesitate book Stephanie, we would again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Culver City
This was Alexandra’s second time staying at our condo with our reactive older cattle dog Luna, this time for 9 days. Alexandra is professional, responsive, and reliable and handles Luna like a pro. She administered Luna’s medication twice a day, and managed Luna’s reactivity to other dogs and strangers well She kept us informed throughout. She wrangled my car out of a tow zone when needed - she even handled getting accidentally lockout with good humor. I’d highly recommend Alexandra for house sitting your pets, even spicy old ones who need twice daily medication!
In all our years of meeting sitters on Rover, Anita is heads and shoulders above the rest. The level of care, kindness, and attention to detail was nothing short of outstanding. She was punctual, genuinely loving to our sweet Mala, took lots of fabulous photos, offered regular updates, and left our home looking immaculate! Anita is a dream, and someone we would ask back again, without question!

The average cost of House Sitting in Culver City is $70 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $131 per night.

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 Culver City 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 Culver City 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Culver City 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
