“Thank you, Dana! Dana stayed at our house for two weeks with our two dogs. She sent pictures often and left the house in immaculate shape before she left. There is nothing like peace of mind when leaving your home and dogs in the hands of a professional like Dana.”
“Karli was absolutely amazing with our little Bentley. She loved him like her own and made sure he was always having fun. She was great with updates while we were gone and left our home looking great! I know we’ll be going to her for future puppy sitting needs.”
“Samantha was amazing. Only thing I would change would be how I prepared the house for her. She did exactly what I asked to take care of my baby Nipsey and I had zero worries coming back to my home after a business trip.”
“Sally made the whole Rover experience easy and knowing someone would be in to check on Puzzles while I was out of town made me feel less guilty about leaving. Plus getting updates about the visit was as well!”
About: I've had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I'm retired now, and I have all the time in the world to hang out with yours! I'm retired, with nothing to distract me from taking care of your pet. I have a nice yard to entertain your dog during the day, or I can come over and hang out with your pet. Either way, I'm your guy! I have a fenced yard and all the time in the world to hang out with or entertain your pet at my house or yours.
“Sharing watched ate two dogs and two cats. All were very happy when we returned from a 1 week trip to Hawai. House was in great shape. Communications were excellent. Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏”
“Nicolas did a great job with our 60lb German shepherd mix while we were gone over the weekend. He got lots of walks, treats, and attention -- his 3 favorite things. Will definitely be keeping Nicolas on the roster for future trips!”
“Kristen stayed with Charlie for a week while we were out of town. She provided pictures and updates daily and took great care of him. Super great at communication and left everything exactly the same as when we left. She is awesome and very reliable! Hope to have her back again soon!”
“Katherin was amazing! My dogs absolutely loved her, and it was clear she kept them happy, entertained, and well cared for throughout her stay. She communicated promptly and respectfully, provided regular updates, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. To top it all off, she even left our house cleaner than we left it! I highly recommend Katherin to any dog parent looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We would happily book her again.”
“We had a last minute cancelation for a dog sitter. Holly was able to house and dog sit with short notice while we were out of the country. Our fur-babies were well taken care of. Will use Holly again!”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who understands that pets are family members, not just animals. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, an energy-burning walk, or extra attention while you’re away, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have been around dogs my whole life, all ages and love all from the young energetic puppies to the elderly who may need medicine and extra attention. What sets me apart is communication and consistency. I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed summaries so you always know how your pet is doing. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routines, and preferences because every pet is different. I’m currently working a part time flexible schedule so pet care fits in at all times! Let me know when you need the help! I do not currently have any pets at home so your puppy will have the most attention! I am very respectful of your home’s boundaries.
“Anthony was the best! He was incredibly communicative and responsive both before the stay and during. He took great care of our pups and sent photo updates regularly. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter!”

I am currently the full-time caregiver for four senior dogs, which has given me extensive experience in managing pets that require patience, specific medical needs, and a gentle pace. I understand that your dog is not just a pet, but a cherished member of your family. Because of this, my approach as a dog walker is rooted in professionalism and care: Absolute Reliability: I value your time and schedule above all else. You can count on me to be there when promised. Safety First: Your pet will always be in a controlled environment under professional supervision. Customized Pacing: Whether your dog needs an energetic workout or a calm, sniff-filled stroll (perfect for senior dogs or those with limited mobility), I adapt completely to their physical needs and temperament. Clear Communication: You will receive updates and photos during every walk, giving you total peace of mind while you are away. I am a resident of Fallbrook and am familiar with the best, safest, walking routes to ensure your dog enjoys their time without any unnecessary stress.

I approach every environment with a methodical, detail-oriented mindset, treating your home and your pet with the utmost respect and vigilance. You can rest assured that your companion is in professional, attentive, and responsible hands at all times."
“Michele and David were great! We booked them pretty last minute and they were willing to stay the weekend with our Lux and Link! Luxy was/is stuck in a cone right now and needed medication administered as well. They were patient with the unique needs Lux has right now and kept us updated throughout the stay. Thanks for taking care of our fur babies!”
“Thank you Laura!!! Always takes the best care of my sweet boy!! Gunner was still looking for her even after we got home. She is so good he sulks for several days because she is no longer here but he is actually happy we are home. Recommend her highly!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fallbrook
Jada was a wonderful sitter for our 3.5 month old Honey. From Jada's first response, meet and greet, to her week with our puppy we were pleased with her hard work with Honey. Jada did above and beyond what we expected as first time Rover users. She met every challenge of a young dog, potty schedule, feeding, walking, some training, sending texts and photos, and upkeep of the house. We will definitely use Jada in the future.
Julie did an excellent job caring for our dogs, Mike and Crüe, while we were traveling in Europe. From the start, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. She provided consistent updates, photos, and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while being so far away. She followed all instructions carefully, kept to their feeding and walking routines, spent meaningful time playing with them, and clearly treated them with genuine care and affection. It was obvious from her updates that Mike and Crüe were comfortable, well-exercised, and happy the entire time. Julie also took great care of our home—handling small things proactively and respectfully—and was thoughtful enough to keep us informed of anything she noticed. When we returned, everything was exactly as we hoped, and our dogs were relaxed and content. We would absolutely trust Julie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and kind pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fallbrook
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fallbrook on Rover is $49.95 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 4,748 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fallbrook. 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 Fallbrook 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 Fallbrook 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 Fallbrook 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 Fallbrook. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
