“Chris was an excellent house and pet sitter! She gave detailed updates and photos every day and kept all the pets on schedule with food and meds they needed to take. The house was left clean, tidy and safe when we arrived back home. Would hire again!”
“Avery was simply the best puppy/house sitter we could ask for. Our puppy fell in love with her and we got many smiling pictures and videos of him while we were away. Her job wasn't easy-- she was here over the 4th of July with a puppy who is very scared of fireworks. But she handled the situation with confidence and comforted our dog like a absolute pro. She truly went above and beyond to not only care for our active puppy, but care for our house as well. We could not recommend her more. Thanks, Avery!”
“Haley was wonderful taking care of our dog and home. We have already booked her for multiple dates. Bubby was happy so we were happy! She also had no problem giving him his meds.”
“We've gone with Vanessa to house-sit our Jack Russell Terrier, Maddie multiple times now and she's the best! She's quick to respond to texts and always leaves the place neat and clean. She also sends us texts and pictures of Maddie while we're gone which we love. Knowing Maddie is with Vanessa while we're gone makes our trips 100 times more enjoyable. She's awesome!”
“First time having a new sitter take care of my pups in a very long time and we got so lucky with Kathleen! She took great care of both my dogs, administered meds, and provided regular updates that helped me also enjoy my time off. Absolutely recommend!”
“From the beginning Lizzie was professional. She asked good detailed questions and you could tell she had experience. We have 2 labs, one is still very much a puppy. She took time and understood his needs. I would definitely recommend her and we will ask her again to take care of our fur babies.”

I’m very responsible, patient, and understanding of dogs’ individual needs and personalities. My goal is to create a relaxed, safe environment so your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I enjoy meeting new people and dogs and take pride in building trust with both. You can expect consistent communication, dependability, and genuine care every step of the way. My commitment is simple: to make sure your pet is safe, happy, and very well taken care of — just as if they were my own.

“Limari was absolutely amazing! She was always on time, followed every instruction perfectly, and often stayed one step ahead, which gave me such peace of mind. She took wonderful care of Pang Pang and my two cats, and it was clear they felt comfortable and well-loved in her care. I’m so grateful for her attention to detail, her reliability, and how smoothly everything went while I was away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”
About: I’m a compassionate, dependable animal lover who understands how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping each pet comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll follow their normal routine and give them personalized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel completely at ease. During this Summer I’m taking a couple of college online courses, therefore it gives me the freedom to prioritize your pet needs while giving myself the freedom to get my academic work done in my free time. I care for each pet according to their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, medication, playtime, walking, and litter-box instructions carefully while keeping the space clean, calm, and secure. I give cats time to approach me at their own pace and provide affection, play, or quiet companionship based on what makes them feel safest. I also send regular photo and message updates so pet parents can feel reassured while they are away.
“Jessica was wonderful, she stayed with our kitty for a few days and did a great job giving him the love and affection he needed while we were away. She was extremely reliable and took all instructions to the dot. Plus she is very pleasant and we totally enjoyed meeting her and getting to know her. We are so grateful we found her, and we will definitely book her again! Thank you, Jessica!”
“Jacqueline is a little shy in person but she communicated very well on text - she kept me updated daily how each of our pet were doing and sent lots of cute pictures of them! :) She also spent time playing with each pet, and they seemed very happy in the pictures. My cat is usually shy and would hide if a stranger is here but she warmed up pretty quickly to Jacqueline. Our place was also kept clean during her Stay too. Will rebook again!”
“Kevin was super easy to communicate with and stayed in touch while I was out of town. He was extremely responsible and took great care of my special needs dogs. I’ll definitely re-hire Kevin!”
“Alvin is an exceptional house/petsitter. I was completely at ease on our trip because he is competent, trustworthy, mature and responsible and committed to follow through with all the details. Staying in touch with Alvin was perfect as he sent us regular updates and always responded really quickly. Alvin made sure to let the gardeners in by unlocking the gate and securing the doggy door to make sure our pup didn't interfere with their work. He made sure the trash was taken out and the bins replaced and followed all security protocol. Took care of the property and kept the plants watered. Our pup accepted him right away and she had a great buddy to hang with while we were gone. She got regular walks, play times, all her supplements and meds, and all the care in the world. He also made sure our fish were fed properly. Alvin exceeded all of my expectations.”
“I would highly recommend Laura for your pet sitting needs. We booked Laura to stay overnight in our home to care for our 4 dogs, one of them was a 9 week old puppy who needed lots of love and attention. Laura made it a priority to make sure our pups had all of her attention and love. She was fantastic with all the dogs and they loved her. She took them on walks, cuddled and slept with them, and provided us lots of pictures. She is very professional and respectful. We felt very comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely use her again!!”
“Fantastic three days! Carrie was thoughtful, communicative, and always on time. She took such wonderful, gentle care of our senior pup. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Highly recommend Krista. She sent photos and updates throughout the day. She is very responsive and answered all my messages thoughtfully. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We will for sure call her back :)”
About: I have taken care of pets all throughout my life! From big dogs to little dogs, from houses to apartment living. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, play and keep company to their pets. It brings me so much joy and I love learning all the pet's personalities! I am flexible on taking care of your dogs since I am working part time! My part time is self scheduled based, so I can attend to their needs as long as I can work my way around it. I make sure the pets are in safe environment at all times! I treat people's pets and homes with respect. I believe keeping a client's space, and my space tidy for the safety, as well as enough outdoor time spent (for dogs).
“Namie is great! She is attentive and kind. She took excellent care of my sweet senior dog with separation anxiety and followed all my directions. Throughout her stay, Namie sent me pictures and gave me thoughtful updates. When I returned home, my dog was happy and comfortable. :) I will definitely ask her to provide house / dog sitting again!”
“Sonia was great with our dog, Fisher, who is blind and can sometimes be challenging. She communicated with us throughout the stay and even offered to contact the vet to refill Fisher’s medication for her. I can highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again.”
“We were nervous since we haven't been in Bakersfield long and didn't know anyone to watch our two pugs. Lacey came over and met them prior to the sitting date. Even our less social pug took to her. She interacted with them both so well. Lacey kept us updated with texts and pictures while we were away, which is great because I worry about them. When we returned, they were excited to see us, but they weren't overly anxious, which means they felt safe and loved while we were gone. We will definitely contact Lacey whenever we go out of town. She did an amazing job!”

another wonderful housesit with Celest! we needed someone to housesit for us on the afternoon and evening of our wedding reception and thankfully, Celest was able to! she was on time, responsive, and forth coming in all her communications with us and sent photos throughout the night. she has such great calm energy that Nebula really responds to. we returned home to a very happy dog and tidy house. we appreciate you, Celest! thanks again!
Was our first time using Chloe and she stayed 4 days with our fur baby! We were so happy with her and she spoiled him with daily walks, cuddles and playtime! She sent pictures of him and he always looked so happy with her. She went beyond what we asked and came home to a happy boy and a clean house. ( which wasn’t expected)
This was my first time using Rover. I was very concerned as my older dog had some health issues arise right before I left. Alvin was amazing. He was constantly advising me about my dogs and any change of normal behavior. He was able to take care of the meds she needed and all was good. I was also surprised my dogs went for walks with him, as I was certain they would not go with someone else. He truly cared that my dogs were healthy including mentally making sure they had activity. He stayed at my house and left it the same condition I left it. I would highly recommended using Alvin and plan to use him again on my next trip. He also took care of watering my plants while I was gone.
Michelle did an amazing job with our 14 week old puppy, Jackie. I was so nervous to find someone who would watch her carefully and give her the type of care we wanted her to have, being such a young pup and all. Michelle went above and beyond to follow our instructions carefully, show up right on time, play with her a lot, and provide constant updates! For a worried dog parent, having this level of comfort with our dog-sitter was everything. She also left the house in pristine condition! She really cared for our fur baby and it showed!! I was worry free the entire time, which is the best way to feel when leaving your puppy in the hands of someone new!
Kelsey last-minute covered for us for a week when our sitter fell through. She came to meet us at a momemt's notice and our dog immediately took to her. Sje also happens to be a wonderfully kind person. She was so responsive and responsible with our dog and our home. So much so that we asked her to come back for another week! Don't hesitate to book with Kelsey- she's worth it and I promise you won't be disappointed.
Wendy is amazing! Last minute plans because of a death in the family had us searching for a sitter for our two recently rescued pups. Wendy promptly answered my inquiry and didn't bat an eye when we said that we were still learning about our new dogs. She jumped right in and made us feel comfortable about leaving for our memorial service out of state. Wendy has great communication, sends lot of pictures, and took great care of the dogs and our home. She is a prompt professional who takes each dog sitting opportunity seriously. I recommend Wendy for your dog sitting needs! Plus, she's just a friendly and caring person.
Stephanie is a super star sitter! Our dog is sweet but has separation anxiety. Stephanie made her so comfortable that Etta was all smiles in all of her check in photos and videos. This helped us fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in great hands. Also, the photos and videos Stephanie sent were so cute, well captioned, and well-timed. I had some detailed instructions and Stephanie followed them all excellently. Her excellent communication and understanding helped manage my own anxieties about leaving Etta at home. She was extremely clean and left our place looking great. Also very reliable, professional, and punctual. My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience and would 100% work with Stephanie again!
Corina has been absolutely wonderful with my Bailey! She goes above and beyond to ensure she’s well cared for and happy. I’ve rebooked with her multiple times and will continue to do so. I highly recommend Corina for anyone looking for exceptional care on their next booking.

FAQs for House Sitting - East San Gabriel
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East San Gabriel on Rover is $59.94 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 15,462 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across East San Gabriel. 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 East San Gabriel 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 East San Gabriel 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 East San Gabriel 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 East San Gabriel. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
