Claudia is an amazing dog sitter and I highly recommend her for the patience, caring and attentiveness she showed our sweet dog who is a anxious and needy. Claudia really took the time to get to know our dog and you could tell she truly cares about my dogs well-being. I was nervous about leaving my dog with an overnight dog sitter, but Claudia was amazing. I truly appreciated her communication and pictures she sent while we were away. We will for sure not hesitate to reschedule with Claudia!

Paris did a great job watching our two dogs while we were on vacation to 10 days!! She stayed at our house with the dogs and sent me a picture every day. It was great to have someone we could trust watch our babies! I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter.

Belinda is AMAZING. I had some many neighbors text me while I was gone saying they loved her and she was taking such good care of my pup. She took him for all the walks and play dates at our community dog park with his friends. She will also send you amazing pics of your fur baby! I can’t recommend Belinda enough! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own. I have two cats and have cared for my boyfriend's two cats for about a year, as well as a friend's cat for another year. I am also comfortable caring for dogs and enjoy spending time with pets of different personalities and energy levels. I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting at the clients home. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, or simply having someone keep them company, I will make sure they receive the care and attention they need while you are away. I know every pet has a different routine, and I am very detail oriented, so I will always take the time to follow your instructions and help them feel safe and comfortable. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can spend quality time with your pets. My goal is to treat every pet like they are my own and provide reliable, loving care. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely pets! I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I can work around your pet's normal routine to make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos while you're away. I've always loved animals and know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them. I take the time to learn each pet's routine and personality so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I have two cats, a bearded dragon, and a frog, so caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, keep your home clean and respected, and send plenty of updates and photos so you know they're happy and doing well.

About: My passion in life is taking care of Animals especially dogs and cats. I have grown up with dogs/cats for all of my life so 19 years so far. I knew since 10 I would do anything for my pets and I wanted to learn more so I started to do research and still to this day I’m learning the absolute most that I can so I can eventually become a dog trainer after schooling, than I’ll be able to start my dream Goal to start a rehabilitation center for dogs in need. My goal is to save the dogs that are close to being put down or they have severe behavior problems. In my family we have a total of 6 dogs right now, my mother fostered many dogs and puppies which opened my eyes to such an incredible experience and knowledge. I know how to handle dogs from tiny to large, I am very strong and can handle big dogs larger than 70 lb. I love dogs (and cats) with a passion and would love to be able to help in any way that I can. Thank you for taking the time to consider me! I am currently working from 6am-2:30pm Monday-Thursday and Saturday. I’m free after 2:30 or Friday and Sunday. If you have any questions please feel free to ask! Where I am living at the moment I am not allowed my pets so they stay at my fathers house. I go home everyday after work to walk/run my dog Lucy (Rottweiler, Pit-bull, German Shepard mix) I feed her, give her a training lesson and give her the absolute best love/ cuddles. I also take care of my cat aswell when I get home and when I’m not there my dad will feed them and take them on walks.

About: Hi! I’m Scarlett! My whole life I have grown up around animals (mostly dogs) and I am very familiar with their needs! My family mostly adopts large and older dogs but I’ve also seen my fair share of puppies as well! So my skills are pretty diverse and can accommodate your dogs needs! Thank you and I hope to be meeting your four legged friend soon! As of right now, I am working three days a week virtually for my college’s writing center. So on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday nights I will be unavailable. But any other day of the week and weekend I am usually free and happy to provide care for your animal(s)! I am only open to providing care in the client's home because I currently live with my parents. In their home, I will make sure to respect their privacy to the highest degree and only use what is necessary for their lovely pets!

Amanda has taken care of our pets on numerous occasions and she has proven to be an incredibly caring and trustworthy pet sitter. We just got back from a 10 day trip and our pets were happy, healthy and well loved. It’s clear they miss her a bit, too! I highly recommend her for all pets but especially those with special needs and requirements.

FAQs for House Sitting - Del Dios

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Del Dios on Rover is $63.41 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 7,347 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Del Dios. 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 Del Dios 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 Del Dios 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 Del Dios 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 Del Dios. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
