“Kaylee is outstanding! I took a leap hiring her as I had not used her before, and I think she may be newer to Rover. But, she is definitely not new to caring for animals or housesitting. She sent lots of pictures, gave me a lot of updates, and I could tell the animals were very comfortable with her and got a lot of love and attention. My house was also very tidy when I came home and little things done I didn’t ask for. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible pet sitter. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you, Kaylee, for being such a loving pet sitter. You had my mind at ease our entire trip.”
“Samantha took great care of our two retrievers and our home. She followed our requests to the letter, maintained great communication, and made us feel very comfortable being away and leaving our pups and home in her care. Thanks Samantha! Highly recommended. Will book her again when we have the opportunity.”
“Took great care of our very interactive kitty. We can always tell when she’s happy and she seems to have had a great weekend. Thank you for being a wonderful caregiver!”
“Jorie did a great job watching my 3 pets over the holiday weekend! She has walked our dogs before, and this was the first overnight. She was communicative leading up to the stay and throughout. I think we got about 10 pictures within the first 24 hours! One of my dogs is very anxious, and Jorie was so good about being patient with her. My other dog has epilepsy and takes medication. She was able to administer that with no issues. Our cat is older and tends to sleep in her little house all day, but she was all over Jorie and loved hanging out with her! I would absolutely hire again and highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the very beginning, communication was excellent. Rebecca kept me updated consistently throughout my trip, followed every instruction I left, and sent regular pictures and videos that gave me so much peace of mind. What impressed me most was how comfortable and relaxed my pets were while I was away. It’s obvious they were treated with genuine care, patience, and affection, which made all the difference. Coming home to happy, stress-free pets is the best feeling. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone dependable, trustworthy, and truly caring. I will absolutely be using their services again!”
“I was gone for 5 days and Charla did an excellent job housesitting and caring for my senior pitbull baby and 2 sweetheart cats. There was a special feeding schedule and other instructions that Charla came over specifically to see and do before the date. I am absolutely going to book her again. She is nice and happy 😊 .”
“Connie was awesome! She took good care of my old man dog while I was away and sent updates and photos. She was responsive and reliable. I will definitely consider her for future pet sitting needs”
About: Growing up on my families ranch, I'm comfortable with all size pets, from goats to dogs, cats and birds. I'll make your pets safety and needs my top priority. Every morning I feed and care my two dogs, one elderly takes medicine for her allergies. The other is blind in one eye and needs medical care. Walks regularly. I have a nice shaded backyard for your pet to run around. Walking path for lengthy walk near by. If pet needs medication, I'll be punctual when they need to take it.
“Kelly was fantastic! She stayed at our house for 3 nights and watched our 17 year old siamese kitty Molly while we were out of town for the holidays. Kelly was quick to respond to every message and sent us lots of great photos and videos. Molly was very relaxed when we came home which is a clear sign of a good cat sitter. Highly recommend Kelly for your pets!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple breeds, big and small ever since I could remember. Watched over multiple cats as well. Excepting last-minute bookings with my flexible schedule!! I am not in school so I have flexible hours. As well as a car on me at all times so I’m able to be there for animal when needed. It’s second nature for me to be around animals and in constant communication with their owners. Whether it’s pictures or updates. :) Communication is important for me so I will not hesitate to ask questions in regard to what the owner prefers for the animal. All the details matter to me.
“Isabelle did a fantastic job house sitting for us and caring for our dog and cat. She was very communicative and even did a great job with our feisty cat. Our home was tidy when we got home, which we really appreciated after a long Disney trip! We would absolutely recommend Isabelle to anyone!”
“Katie is a great with communications, directions and respectful of personal property. She is caring and patient with our pets and kept us up to date with everything at home while we were away!”
About: I have always had a dog. But now I don't. I showed poms and German Shepherds. Our 28 year old son lives with us and he was our handler. I miss having a dog but just can't have one right now. My husband and I are retired. I consider dogs to be part of the family and not pets. So like children I only want one or 2 at a time so I can provide my full attention. I will be responsible and reliable with your baby. They will never be left alone since there will be someone here at all times. I am very good at puppy training ( puppy boot camp) and I am patient Don't be surprised if your baby is better behaved after spending time with our family.
“WHAT A BLESSING SHE IS!! Yaritza was amazing and kept me updated the entire length of my vacation. So nice to know that someone who cared so much for animals was with my sweet 14 year-old fur baby!! I would hire her again in a second!”
About: I’ve always had a connection with animals and they have always been a big part of our home. I want to spread the love and get the opportunity to meet more pets! I’m a responsible 22 year old nursing student wanting to make some money doing what I love ! I’m currently available at anytime. Weekdays are preferred for scheduled meet-ups. However please message me personally to guarantee you and your pets needs :) Thank you ! Disclaimer* no aggressive dogs pls :) If the pup doesn’t get along with other dogs then please inform me ahead of time. I currently live with my grandmother and her smaller dog Benji who gets along with anyone and anything. Although I do prefer to dog sit at the owners home, taking care of your pups needs will be assured because of our big home, our backyard play area, and experience as a pet owner/watcher. Other areas of care would be daily exercise for your pups, a routined eating schedule, and my full attention and love !
About: I had an English Setter Callie, and loved her as if she were my daughter. After she passed, it was not the same and I really missed her and the unconditional love and happiness she brought into my life. The past two years I've been house sitting for several people all over the United States, which began with an uber driver asking me if I'd look after his Belgian Malinois Berta while he went on a cruise. The experience was great and I realized how much I miss being around animals. I have done dozens of house sits since then, met amazing pets from dogs, cats, lizards, and frogs. I've met some great people in that time as well who I'd help in a heartbeat again should the need arise. On March 2, 2026 I found a chihuahua, Sweetie abandoned walking towards the road while I was house sitting for a customer. I saved her, she wasn't microchipped, no collar, nobody claimed her despite my listings. She is family now and an unbelievable gift in my life. She is 4 years old, very friendly with people, dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. Shes a total sweetheart and I bring her with me on sits, and have been impressed with how different pets interact with her and how they motivate and teach each other little things. I work remotely in financial services as a life insurance, mortgage protection broker. Plenty of schedule flexibility, I schedule all my own clients and appointments. I'm very health conscious and enjoy getting outside hiking, walking trails, or going to the gym to stay fit. Treat pets and homes as if they're your own. Leave things as found or better than when you arrived. I like to keep owners updated consistently usually every 2 or 3 days, with photos and an occasional video of something funny if you catch pets in the act.
“I have just returned from Asia after Numa and his lovely family sat my two boys and stayed at my house for 10 days. Having never used a sitter before, I must say i was really reluctant to do so. Numa agreed to look after my bulldogs whilst I was in Japan and Hong Kong. The weekend prior to leaving, I sent Numa an email detailing everything about my gated community, house and, of course, the boys. Numa and Madeleine arrived on the day I was leaving with an extensive check list they had put together, to ensure everyone was comfortable and happy. It made me feel really content - i could instantly see how detailed, caring and thorough they were. In addition, when we did the initial meet and greet one of my boys Archie (who is a typical English bulldog and can be a bit rambunctious when first meeting someone) jumped up and scratched Numa. After we agreed to Numa sitting the boys, he even offered to pick them up prior to my going away and take them to get their nails trimmed - what a lovely gesture (I of course took care of this, but it showed the detail and care he and Madeleine went to prior and during staying at my house). They provided me with daily updates, photos and videos. In every one of them i could tell how happy my boys were - frankly having been back only a few hours I think the boys are rather disappointed it was me coming through the door! This morning I found one of the dogs lying in the room they slept in! I reckon that's their own 5 star rating! Numa and Madeleine are people of the highest integrity, and I could tell how important it was for them that I was comfortable. I can honestly say whilst i was away i had absolutely zero concerns as i knew my boys were being loved and cared for, probably better than I do! It made my important trip all the much easier. I wanted to leave this review as, if like me you needed assistance to look after your dogs but were worried, YOU SHOULD PICK NUMA AND HIS WIFE EVERY TIME! MY only hesitation in leaving this review is that more people want to work with Numa and Madeleine and it might mean they cant take care of Archie and Gus when i next travel :-) Oh and one other thing, when i arrived last night, my house was as clean and tidy as its ever been and Madeleine communicated all the logistics of her departure. I simply couldn't be happier that I met them and would work with them without hesitation! They are welcome at my place any time.”
“Cierra was wonderful with our dog coco. Very loving and playful. She is very reliable, she sent us pictures of our dog as well very sweet. I would definitely hire and recommend her services”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s two dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, and ensuring they received daily attention and exercise. In addition, I have regularly cared for friends’ pets while they were out of town, providing reliable care for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. I am currently attending EMT school, so I have a very flexible schedule and am not working at the moment. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your little ones. I am available on both weekdays and weekends and would be happy to work around your family’s schedule. 😊 I care for pets by following their normal routine, including feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep their environment clean, ensure they feel safe and comfortable, and always respect my client’s home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Desert View Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Desert View Point on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 1,183 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Desert View Point. 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 Desert View Point 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 Desert View Point 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 Desert View Point 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.
