“Meng is highly responsible, informs herself of everything she needs to know to take care of one's pet. She stayed for a couple of nights, sent me lovely photos of my sweet pup, left my place clean and my pup was calm and happy when I returned! She will be in my auto-dial!”
“Nicholle was great! She was super attentive to our pups while we were gone and gave us frequent updates throughout the day. Pups seemed to have had a great time over the weekend with her!”
“Molly was great with my puppy Sky, they connected immediately! She stayed at my house over New Year's Eve and made me feel totally comfortable leaving my pup for the first time overnight with someone else; grateful to have found Molly!!”
“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.”
“Amber is awesome. We were very nervous about leaving our newly adopted and anxious pup and she eased all of our concerns! She was very calm and patient with Poppy. We can tell Amber truly loves dogs and has a gentle way of working with them. Will definitely rebook!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Ariana was amazing with my 4 year old cat, Ramona! I got lots of updates and pictures while I was gone for 3.5 days, and Ramona was clearly very happy and well-taken care of. I am so grateful for Ariana who made me feel completely at ease and confident that Ramona was getting great care. Would absolutely recommend Ariana in the future!”
“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.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal attention and care I give to every pet. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and personalities, including puppies, senior pets, and pets who may need extra patience or reassurance. I’m also happy to follow specific feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions. I treat pet sitting as more than simply checking in I want each pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely loved while their owner is away. I also value clear communication with owners and providing updates so they can feel confident their pet is in good hands. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and naturally make time for in my routine. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own. I’m attentive to their individual personalities, routines, and comfort levels. Whether that means a morning walk, playtime, meals on schedule, medication, cuddles, or simply being there for companionship, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is doing well. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and confident in my care. I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any specific instructions from their owner so they can feel secure and relaxed. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I would my own. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, keep pets away from anything potentially unsafe, and maintain a clean environment. I follow feeding, walking, medication, and other care instructions carefully. I understand that leaving your pet with someone is a big responsibility. I believe in being dependable, communicative, and attentive, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I have loved nature and the animals that we share the world with since early childhood. My mission here on Rover is to provide pets the enrichment that can be evasive in the hustle and bustle of the big city. My job is to make pets feel safe, to give them a chance to exercise and play, and of course to give them all the pets they desire! I currently work part-time during afternoons, and I have lots of openings in the morning and the evening for pet care. I see pet care as a great opportunity not only for the pets, but for myself to give myself some joy, distraction, and exercise alongside adorable animals. I always approach the pets I care for with empathy, and as I get to know them, I strive to provide the ideal environment for their happiness and health. I put emphasis on exercise and physical play, as not only does that aid greatly in improved behavior for owners, it leads to healthy and happy pets who sleep soundly and peacefully.
About: I typically walk my dog down my block and I tend to visit many dog parks around Los Angeles. At home I have a senior Chihuahua and a chill bengal cat that stays to her own. I often care for a golden retriever pup as well. I currently work during school hours so I am available early morning or during after school hours. I am also available on weekends since school is out. I have a senior dog who is chill and stays to herself, usually cradles herself in her dog bed while the golden tends to follow me around when shes in my care. Both dogs have different personalities and trained different so I would say I am open to what your pet would need in order to be comfortable.
“Monica is an absolute gem! I haven't left my dogs with a non-family member since before Covid, and I was so nervous to go out of town and leave them with a "stranger." You can absolutely trust Monica with the care of your pets. She provided daily updates and pictures and communication was great. My dogs typically don't have much of an appetite when I'm out of town, so seeing pictures of them eating and coming home to empty bowls shows me how comfortable they were with Monica. She even tidied up the house before leaving. I highly recommend!”
“Val has watched our two dogs for two extended stays in the last year. My wife and I are very lucky to be able to count on her to take care of them. She sends us regular photo updates and it’s clear from the updates and the dogs behavior when we return that they have a lot of fun and feel genuinely loved when she is around! 10/10, thank you Val for taking such wonderful care of our 2 babies!!!”
“Overall, I was very impressed with Stephanie's dedication and the genuine bond she formed with my dog. It's comforting to know she's in such capable and caring hands. Thank you, Stephanie, for providing excellent care! I will definitely be reaching out to you the next time I need someone to look after my furry friend.”
About: I've had my pets for most of my life. I've owned dogs that are small, medium-sized, and even large! I believe our furry friends need some daily activity and outdoor time in order to live their best lives! I'm available during the week from the morning until the early afternoon so my schedule is quite flexible Monday through Friday. I do not walk on the weekends. I primarily walk dogs and care for cats in their home, I do not have the space to pet sit a dog in my home currently. I make sure to ask my clients how they take care of their pet and use the same approach to make your furry friend feel relaxed.
“Shay was absolutely amazing with our dog, Oliver. From the start, we felt completely at ease leaving him in their care. While we were away, we received the most beautiful pictures and thoughtful updates. Oliver looked so happy, relaxed, and full of smiles in every single one. It meant the world to us. During the stay, it made us happy that Shay communicated that Oli peed on his bed and was bleeding a little on his paw. It’s important to feel comfortable communicating when things aren’t perfect, and Shay resolved everything with confidence and ease. When we came home, we were welcomed by a calm, well-balanced pup who had clearly been loved, followed his routine, taken all his meds, and just looked so content. Our home was also spotless, which was such a lovely surprise. You can tell Shay truly cares, Oliver clearly made a new best buddy, and it shows (he was around the house looking for them last night) We’re beyond grateful and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust them again. Thank you, Shay! You’re a gem 💎”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Culver City
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!

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.
