“Great communication and experience with Chloe - did an amazing job during an overnight sitting so that we could enjoy a rare “date night” over in Seattle. Nice updates and photos during our absence. Will use again!”
“Cassie did a wonderful job taking care of our 2 labs and 1 cat while we were away on vacation and made sure the house stayed in good working order! Her schedule was flexable enough to house sit Thursday through Sunday which allowed us to travel out of state and the primary reason we went with her. She stayed in constant communication and was swift with her reply! She gave us peace of mind knowing our pets where being well taken care for which allowed us to enjoy our vacation!”
“As a somewhat anxious, first-time Rover user, Sophia immediately put me at ease with her friendly, professional demeanor and desire to make a connection with my cat upon our first meeting. I left on vacation feeling confident that my pet was well cared for. Sophia kindly sent photos and updates to ensure that my cat was adjusting well in my absence. I returned to a happy cat and home just as I left it. I would, without reservation, happily recommend Sophia for pet care needs.”
“Flora is so sweet. She was very nice and communicative the whole time we were gone, and took great care of our dogs! Our dogs are rambunctious to say the least, and so I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Could not be happier with the care Cara provided for our big ole mama dog while we were gone. Almost want to plan another trip just so they can hang out again! I recommend Cara without hesitation.”
“Penny has watched our dogs and house twice and each time, has provided great service. Our dogs are happy and healthy, and our house is clean. She communicated well and send pictures and updates daily. Thank you Penny! We appreciate you so much!”
“Heather was extremely helpful in agreeing to watch our two beagles over the 4th of July for us! She was an excellent sitter, and we felt at peace knowing she was looking after our home and boys while we were gone. Heather was extremely communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, and even brought her kids to play with the boys so they’d have lots of company. Heather administered medicines and was even kind enough to pick up a few packages for us. We’d highly recommend Heather as someone who will take care of your home and pets while sending some great photos to boot. Thank you very much for helping us out, Heather!”
“Autumn is one of the best dog sitters I’ve ever booked! She was very communicative, handled each dog perfectly despite their individual quirks and overall made me feel so much better about going on vacation! I absolutely recommend Autumn to look after and love your animals!”
About: Since I was a child my family has had pets in the home. When I was 9 my sister and I collaborated to earn ourselves a kitten and since then pet care has been an important part of my life both the cuddly and the smelly. Most of my experience is with cats, I have one myself who is a total sweetheart once she gets comfortable. I’ve watched over and managed multiple cat households, senior cats, outdoor cats, and cats that have required oral medication. I also have experience watching over dogs, taking them out when needed, playing with them to help tire them out. I am comfortable walking dogs big and small, I am not professionally trained but know I can hold my own when needed. I’m currently between jobs so have plenty of time to care for your pets! Available all hours of the day and night, and I can be flexible with new jobs or cancellations. I have experience house sitting so I understand that it’s often about more than just taking care of your pets but also ensuring that your home is safe and well kept. People I’ve sit for can attest that I do my best to ensure everything is in its place and to make the space at least as clean as it was originally.
“Our experience with Clarissa was fantastic! She was very thoughtful of all our needs. She cared for our 9 month old puppy with great attention and love. We greatly appreciated all updates everyday with photos of our puppy walking and playing. It was amazing to come home to a clean house and everything cared for so well. We highly recommend Clarissa and will be excited to have her come back.”
“Spencer is fantastic! He took excellent care of our dog, Windell. He was responsible, sent pictures every day and did everything he was supposed to do, and the place was in good order when we returned. I would highly recommend Spencer for the care of your pet. Thanks, Spencer!”
“We loved our experience with Anna! She’s so friendly, communicative, and our dog Sopa loved her!!! She left the house tidy and like she wasn’t even here. She’s such a nice person and great dog sitter! We’ll definitely use her again :)”
“Katherine and Brian are a gem! They took such great care of our dogs. One of our dogs is very timid, but Katherine and Brian were able to gain her trust very quickly. We are so grateful to have found them to take care of our doggos when we are away. They also left our place immaculate and even prepared a delicious meal for us. Thank you so much!”
“Hannah was wonderful with our puppies! She did everything we asked and even visited with my elderly mother who lives with us too. She was timely and went the extra mile for us. She kept the yard & house super clean. We are so happy with her help! Definitely will be calling her again for help.”
“I can’t thank Jordynn enough for the great care of my pups who have vastly different personalities. One sweet girl Nina who never wants to leave your side and could play all day and then my shy old man Dewey. But Dewey warmed up to her so quickly and I could tell Jordynn truly cares about animals. She was courteous, timely and thoughtfully communicative. Even though I was going to be without cell service during part of my time away I always returned to pics and updates. I look forward to booking with her again.”
“We have two very particular dogs who don't get along very well and Samantha did a great job at taking care of them. We hired her for 2 weeks of overnight house sitting and she went above and beyond. She kept our plants alive, took out the trash and recycling, did her own dishes, and cleaned the towels and linens. We received frequent updates during our vacation and any concerns we had were addressed quickly and respectfully. I highly recommend Samantha for house sitting and are excited to call on her in the future for our dogs. Our dogs love her and we do too!”

Jason is a wonderful house sitter. He took amazing care of our home, our 2 dogs and pet fish. Great communication from start to finish, getting regular photos and check ins really made us feel at ease. I’ve had some nightmare pet sitter experiences in the past, and I’m thrilled to say that is all behind me. My family and I will book trips knowing we have an awesome, trusted person who treats our dogs as his own. We took a 10 day trip to see family and I didn’t spend one second worrying, it was fantastic! Highly recommend and will definitely book again. Thank you Jason!!!
Naomi was amazing. She stepped in at the very last minute after our original sitter canceled while we were already out of town, and she truly saved us. She house sat and took great care of our chocolate lab, Oliver, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated, was reliable, and treated our home and dog with care. We couldn’t be more grateful for her willingness to help on such short notice. I would absolutely recommend Naomi and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
Cassie was fantastic. Our senior Corgi took to her immediately and bonded very well. She house sat with our Corgi and understood her medical issue, her needs and what to do in case of an emergency. We will definitely call on Cassie again to house sit our Corgi.
Wendy was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was very caring and understanding about our anxiety ridden dog. She was available on such short notice when our plans changed last minute for our upcoming vacation. Kaylee surprised all of us by warming up to Wendy almost immediately at the meet and greet we did and from what it sounds like, happy to see Wendy and her little pup Honeypie show up on the first day. She sent pictures throughout our trip and was great at sending us updates. We will definitely be booking with Wendy again on any future trips we take! Hopefully well in advance next time 😉
We had a great experience with Cheyenne! She was so easy to communicate with and our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We felt at complete ease leaving our pups with her. She also took great care of our house and left it better than she found it. We will be using Cheyenne to watch our fur babies again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Eldorado Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Eldorado Hills on Rover is $62.16 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,352 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eldorado Hills. 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 Eldorado Hills 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 Eldorado Hills 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 Eldorado Hills 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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.
