“Dorris was so sweet to our little Luna. Communicated frequently about any change in situation and was very respectful of our home. Would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Meg was awesome! We had a bit of an emergency and needed someone fast. Meg helped us out with less than 24 hours notice and took great care of our doggos. She was very communicative and kind. Would definitely recommend again.”
“Laurie was amazing! She was very accommodating and sent photos of my fur babies while she watched them on my wedding day. She took them for walks and was very patient with them all. She was a real life saver and I would recommend her to any one in need of an amazing dog sitter. 🩷🐶”
“Nick went above and beyond to take care of our babies! He left the house clean and the pups happy, what more can we ask for! He also included some high quality photos of the boys, very professional! We will absolutely be having him back to watch them next time we leave town.”
About: I have experience with walking, bathing, and medicine administering for small and medium dogs along with cats. I have experience and patience with senior dogs as well. I can also find ways to improve your home or routine with things that have worked well for me. I have a keen eye for everything to do with animal care. I work remotely and currently looking to fill my weekends providing care to my animal neighbors! My schedule may change in the future to more availability, especially for stay-overs. I treat pets like my family. Their well being and safety is the most important thing. Showing up for them consistently builds trust and I love nothing more than building that connection. Oh, and you can also call me by my middle name Linette, as a lot of people do!
“Julie was an absolutely amazing pet sitter! She cared for my Bella as if she were her own—showering her with love, spoiling her, and showing incredible patience. Of course, during the time Julie was watching her, Bella happened to have some stomach cramps and accidents, but Julie handled everything with so much kindness and care, cleaning up without hesitation and making sure Bella was comfortable. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing my furry baby was in such loving hands. I could not have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely be reaching out to Julie again in the future. Truly five-star care! I highly recommend her to anyone who wants their pup to feel loved—don’t hesitate to book her!”
About: Our pets can be the most valuable thing in our lives, taking care of them and loving them properly takes a village. Allow me to give you the relief of going to work, on vacation or off doing whatever life brings you. I have many years of experience with all sorts of animals, exotic and your typical puppy. I also have a photographer in my back pocket so guarantee some cute photos of your babies. I work part time at Better Buzz and looking to make some extra cash to make ends meet! I work super early shifts and have all day to come walk your pup. We keep our pups on a regulated diet, watching the weight of Riley. We give meds to Riley daily and have many tips and tricks to get him to take his med if he refuses! Our moody husky refused to eat many times and we find healthy ways to excite her food. I like to know about the type of dog they are, I’ve been around many dogs, overly loving, scared, hyperactive, and I want to make sure your pup enjoys my presence as much as I do them.
“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!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both Rover, my work as a professional pet groomer and my current work as a Kennel Technician. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and anxious pets that may need extra patience and care. My experience includes feeding routines, daily walks, playtime, basic behavior monitoring, crate training reinforcement, maintaining clean environments, and following detailed care instructions from owners. Working in grooming has also strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, safety, stress reduction, and proper handling techniques. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and positive experience for every pet while keeping owners updated with communication and photos My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each client’s needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week, including during the day, and weekends. I do currently work part-time in the evenings. I’m reliable with communication, punctuality, and keeping consistent routines for pets while their owners are away. I care for pets by keeping their routines as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special care requests closely to make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable. During visits and stays, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and supervision while also paying close attention to behavior and body language. Cleanliness and safety are very important to me, so I always maintain a clean environment, secure doors and gates, and make sure pets are never left in unsafe situations. I also keep owners updated with regular communication and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for while they’re away.
“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!”
“Sandra is amazing! She took such great care of my sweet 3 pound dog who is dealing with seizures. I felt completely safe leaving Coco in Sandra’s care. She went above and beyond! Thank you Sandra!!!💜”
“Angela exceeded our high expectations (based on her previous reviews). She was very caring towards our elderly dog, as shown by the questions she asked about her eating habits, where she sleeps etc. Angela is also an outstanding photographer and sent us regular pics of our dog who was clearly very happy spending time with Angela. Angela treated our home with complete respect and it was spotless when we returned. Angela even gave us a detailed list of all the things our dog did for example how she behaves during walks etc. I cannot imagine a better dog-sitter than Angela.”
“Kellie took great care of my two dogs and sent daily updates with photos. She left our house clean, but more importantly we knew our dogs were happy and well taken care of when we were gone.”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I enjoy being active outdoors, all year round, and would love to bring your dog along for a run or hike. I have over 20 years experience handling all types and sizes of dogs. I’d be happy to discuss how to tailor the daily routine for your pup for maximum comfort and enjoyment. Your dog will be spoiled, exercised and socialized. Medication and special care upon request. Communication is key during your time away and I can provide daily texts and/or calls and emails with pictures and updates of how your pet(s) are doing. My goal is to allow you to be away from your pets with peace of mind and complete trust that your dog(s) are being taken care of at a high standard and in a loving and caring manner. Thank you I work M-F with a flex schedule. I’m in the office 2-3 days a week and then WFH the rest of the week. Depending on your dogs needs, I can rearrange my schedule to suit your dog! I will keep your space clean and spotless. I will follow all your rules and work to build trust with you and your pet(s). Please let me know things like crate schedule (if you have one), furniture rules, potty schedule, etc.
“First time leaving our two pups with Caleb and Sara, they kept us updated all the time, either even when I was anxious about my anxiety, anxiety dog. But even she warmed up in the end. Got lots of pictures which put my mind at is. They not only cared for my pups, but they left my home clean and tidy. Definitely booking with them again.”
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience as a dog owner, providing daily care including walks, feeding, and lots of love. I truly enjoy being around animals and am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like part of the family. I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility in my day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I am fully available to give pets the attention, walks, and care they need. I take care of pets in their own home by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get regular walks, and receive plenty of attention and companionship so they feel comfortable and secure.
About: I have had dogs for my entire life and am very experienced with all levels of care from walking and feeding, to administering medication and light obdience and potty training. I am highly attentive, comfortable with all sizes and breeds, and dedicated to maintaining your dog's regular routine so they feel safe and loved while you're away. My schedule is currently wide open for the summer, so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pups. I do ask for some advance notice, but I am open to accommodating same-day requests when possible. I provide a secure environment for pets in my home with at least 3 walks a day and plenty of engagement. I have a doodle who loves to have "sleepovers" with new friends. Safety is my top priority, so I can easily crate your dog if needed. I am fully able to accommodate any specific feeding schedules and administer any medications if required. I can provide the same level of service in your home as well, except I'll leave my doodle at home ☺️

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fallbrook
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 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 4,818 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
