“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.”
“Nicholle was really lovely and communicative while looking after our senior dog. We were a bit behind schedule and she was very accommodating to our timing. I would absolutely book her again! Thanks Nicholle!!”
“Margaret did a wonderful job caring for our dog George while we were away for 5 days. She sent us updates and photos everyday - we loved seeing that George was having fun and well taken care of! She also kept our apartment perfectly clean. We will definitely be booking with Margaret again!”
“Emily was a wonderful choice to house/dog sit for our long weekend. She was communicative, sent updates, and very easy going. Thank you for taking care of my senior pup who can be a little odd sometimes.”
“Daisy house sat and took care of our Labrador dog and two cats for several weeks. She was communicative and responsible. We got lots of photos. The animals were well taken care of. Our dog gets so excited whenever he sees Daisy. She watered plants while we were away. The house looked great when we got back, too. I would definitely hire her again.”
“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!!”
“Mary watched our aging little dog over Christmas. Our dog has anxiety with lots of triggers, and also takes many meds and bathroom breaks due to her heart condition. Mary followed all directions and loved on her a lot! She was very communicative, sending us lots of videos where our girl looked so happy and relaxed. Mary has such a caring and calm energy, I think our dog instantly vibed with her from the initial meet and greet. We felt secure leaving the country with Mary watching our house and our girl, we would book her again in the future!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Lizett was a wonderful dog sitter for our two dogs. She gained their trust quite quickly and took them on lots of walks. She also kept our home clean and tidy. Would highly recommend!”
“Margaret was fantastic with our dog and 2 cats while we were out of the country. She was able to ease my anxiety, great communicator, and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely book future sittings with Margaret”
“Nicolas made the effort to meet our pups and acquaint himself with our place for the overnight. Our dogs loved him and were comfortable. I recommend if you need someone to handle your large or big energy pup.”
About: My first dog was when I was 5 yrs old and have had 6 since then. I have been a reliable source for my friends to love their dogs like my own and have dog sat, walked, and even taken them camping for a nature break. I chose River to fill the void of not being allowed dogs where I live. They are simply the best! I am currently working from home with weekends off which allows me a very flexible schedule to walk and care for your dogs when needed. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood and have a park within walking distance. Your pets safely is my main concern. I will always treat you fur baby with kindness and care.
“This was our second time having Ashley watch our dog. She is reliable, communicative, and our pup really enjoys his time with her! She also leaves our home clean. We will definitely book her again. Thank you, Ashley!”
“Ivet was an absolute lifesaver. My scheduled sitter was hospitalized the night before while I was traveling out of state, and Ivet stepped in at the last minute. She met with my first sitter for the handoff, was patient and understanding with Marcy while she warmed up, and kept me updated with plenty of messages and photos throughout the stay. Marcy ended up feeling completely comfortable with her, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with Ivet again!”

“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!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Culver City
If you've been on the hunt for a reliable, kind, and capable dog or house sitter, you won't find a better person than Valeriya! Not only does she do a wonderful job of taking care of my senior dogs (with their many health needs!), but she is incredibly flexible and responsive in times of crisis. I can't thank her enough for jumping to the rescue when another sitter backed out in the middle of watching our pups when one got sick. Valeriya stepped up and took care of everything. I am so grateful to have finally found a dog sitter that I can trust that I'm reluctant to tell anyone else about for fear of her getting booked up! But I hope she does get busy with sitting because that means so many more animals and families will rest easy knowing they're taken care of.
This was our first time leaving our small kitten alone for an extended period of time and Nicholle took amazing care of her! She was very on time with feedings and sent many pictures to make us feel connected to Willow & feel comforted in the fact that she was being well taken care of. Couldn’t recommend her more!
Tracy was wonderful from our first meet and greet. She has a calm and kind demeanor, great for my two senior dogs. She went above and beyond when our flight was delayed to stay longer with our fur babies, and we came home to a clean house! We are worriers as our dogs have gotten older and are so thankful that Tracy took such good care of our dogs. We will definitely ask her to house and dog sit for us again.
This was our third time having Jessica come housesit, and it was another wonderful experience! She provided frequent updates with great pictures so we knew our dog was getting great care and following his usual routines. Her communication leading up to and during the booking was excellent. When we got home, our dog was happy and healthy, and our house was clean and tidy. We would absolutely book with Jessica again and are happy to give her the highest recommendation for anyone considering booking Jessica for their pets!
Kirsten was wonderful! She was super communicative, tidy and most importantly my cats were instantly drawn to her and comfortable around her, including my nervous cat Oliver. Both cats were relaxed and happy when I returned. Extra bonus that she has an amazing daughter that's great with animals too! Thank you so much Kirsten.
Everything went smoothly and they provide wonderful care for our dogs and home. Having Andi and Adam for over a week provided peace of mind and they are super at communication. Pictures of the pups everyday helped us with our dog withdrawals while we were abroad. We were able to do a quick meet and greet before booking and they managed to keep dogs from getting into any bad habits. They were great with two extra large Pyrenees which not all dog sitters want or can handle. The house looked like we hadn’t had guests. Def recommend and will consider having again.
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Culver City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Culver City is $73 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $134 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 13,826 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Culver City. 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 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.
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 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Culver City. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
