About: Hello! I'm Diane and I have spent my entire life surrounded by the joy of dogs and cats. Caring for animals isn't just a job for me - It's a lifelong passion. I am an easygoing, loving and patient person who treats every guest like a member of my own family. When I'm not spending quality time with my friends and loved ones, you can almost find me exploring the great outdoors. I would love to bring your pup along for the fun! Home Environment I share my house with a wonderfully social dog-friendly cat. Because my cat gets along beautifully with canines, your pup will have a calm, welcoming environment and a relaxed companion to hand out with during their stay. Specialized Care & Peace of Mind I understand that your pets are your babies, and they deserve the highest level of care. Outdoor Adventures: Perfect for high-energy pups who love fresh air and long walks. Medical Support: I am completely comfortable administering medications and handling specialized routines. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing your pet's health schedule won't miss a beat. Tailored Attention: From playful energy to senior struggles. I promise to care for your pets to the absolute best of my ability Because of my flexible schedule. I can provide frequent potty breaks, regular companionship, and stick closely to your pet's feeding and medication timeline. Accommodating dropoff and pick up times. Pets are never left in an unsecured area. I have a fenced in back yard and a rolling gat in the front yard. Pets are never left unattended.
“Rebekah is the sweetest! Took care of our puppies very well! She is very responsive and very good response to feedback and requests! She is efficient when it comes to last minute changes and updated!”
“Alexis was the best! We would totally recommend and can’t wait to use her again. She was so communicative and really went above and beyond. She sent updates, followed the instructions we left, and even washed and remade the bed before leaving. Brisket loved the snuggles and daily walks.”
About: I have had pets my whole life. Grew up dog sledding so I am very confident in caring for high energy dogs. I have also had cats my whole life. I currently live with 2 senior cats. One is in remission from being a diabetic so I know how to care for a pet that needs extra love. I currently work from home during the day and can be available anytime before 3pm. From 3-8pm I need to be onsite for work. Most weekends I am free. I treat my pets like family. I will make sure they get the correct amount of food/water/exercise but will also be there to make sure they are having fun and feeling loved.
“Our two pups loved Morgan! We are so happy we found her, she took amazing care of our home as well as our dogs. We loved the pictures she sent and how often she checked in with us. Best pet care we have had in a long time. We look forward to having her again soon 💕”
About: I've always loved dogs, and want the chance to get to know yours as well! I myself have a very energetic miniature aussie, as well as experience pet sitting a wide variety of dogs. I grew up with a Shetland sheepdog, and have experience with dogs as small as 15-20 lbs, and as large as 101+ lbs. I have no qualms about dog breeds either, with all members of my family and friends having a healthy mix of dogs across the spectrum of size, breeds, and personalities. If your dog wants to cuddle and be pet, or go out and play endless fetch, I'm all about it. Or, I'm more than happy to stay in the house to give them some company. Totally up to you, and them! I'm a stay at home mom with lots of hobbies and the occasional tutoring session, so I have quite a bit of availability. Most of my availability is after my husband gets home from work, so I can give your pet the focus and love it deserves while my daughter stays home. I also have quite a bit of availability over the weekend to stop in and say hi. All of this being said, I'm flexible, and would love the opportunity to talk with you to see if we can work together for a solution that gets your pet the care and attention they need. I am happy to care for your pets in your home. I will arrive on time and consistently. More than anything, I will always communicate with you to let you know how everything went, and I'm happy to send pictures as well.
“Delmar is a lovely person and pet sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure my menagerie was taken care of and sent lots of updates. She also took her own notes about my home and the the pets’ schedules.”
“Ashley was wonderful! She sent updates 2x a day. We were so lucky to find someone that our all 3 of our girls loved on immediately. She made us feel comfortable, and we trusted her to watch our girls and our home while we were away. She lift our house cleaner than we left it!! We will definitely be using Ashley again.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alexandra was absolutely wonderful with our two doggies, Olivia and Ollivander! Olivia is still a puppy and definitely requires some extra attention, patience, and care, and Alexandra handled her beautifully. She was equally attentive and loving with Ollivander, making sure both of them felt comfortable, happy, and cared for while we were away. She followed all of their routines and instructions carefully, kept us updated, and gave us so much peace of mind knowing our babies were in such good hands. We came home to two happy, relaxed doggies, which says everything! We are so grateful to have found Alexandra and would absolutely trust her with Olivia and Ollivander again. She will definitely be our first choice whenever we need someone to care for them. Highly, highly recommend her! 🐾❤️”
“Caroline was great with all our pets! She came by in advance to meet everyone and helped us out with a last minute booking. She did a great job with a mix of our higher energy large dog and chill cats. She was super kind and responsive during her stay, and we’ve already booked her again for another weekend - would totally recommend her for watching dogs and cats ! :)”
“We could not have asked for a better person to care for Remi and our home while we were away. Nancy truly went above and beyond in every way. She didn’t just take care of Remi—she made sure Remi had a great time! She took her on walks and to the dog park, played endless games of ball, prepared her special meals of chicken and quinoa, and even took her to the store to buy new balls. She also brought some unique balls from her own home because she thought Remi would enjoy them—which, of course, she did! Nancy kept us updated every day with texts, photos, and videos. Being away from Remi is never easy, but those updates gave us such peace of mind. We could see that Remi was happy, comfortable, and genuinely enjoying herself, and we never had to worry about whether she was being well cared for. Nancy stayed in our home every night and treated our home with the same care she gave Remi. We came home to a clean house, dog hair picked up, and she had even gathered the linens and put them in the laundry. None of that was expected—it was simply Nancy going the extra mile. Most importantly, we came away knowing we can completely trust Nancy with two things that mean a great deal to us: Remi and our home. We were so pleased with her that we have already booked her for our next trip. We highly recommend Nancy and feel very fortunate to have found her. Remi may be the happiest of all—she gets to have Nancy come back! 🐾❤️”
“Travis was absolutely awesome with our girls. He sent pictures every day and kept us updated. Which was a huge stress reliever b/c me and my now husband were away getting married. We will definitely keep him in mind for future pet sitting.”
“Diana is so kind and generous! We have two animals and she came over twice to make sure she understood how to take care of them. Each time, she was a complete delight and also she kept me updated with updates on how my fur babies were doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She will be our go-to sitter from now on”

“Watched our pups for an extended weekend and took great care of them! One of our dogs has high anxiety and doesn’t get along with everyone, but she was able to feed him and give him his meds. Thank you!”
“Thanks to Karen we were able to attend a wedding knowing our 3 puppies were in excellent hands!! She kept in touch and was so nice to meet and work with!! I would highly recommend her!! Thanks so much again!!♥️???♥️”
“Jasmine was nothing short of amazing! She took care of our two dogs and our house for three days while we were on vacation. She is a natural with animals, making our rescue dogs feel safe and secure. They loved her! On top of taking them on walks and playing with them, she also kept our plants alive during the heatwave and fed the multitude of wild birds who frequent our feeders. She even laundered the sheets on the bed where she slept. All and all, we found her to be trustworthy and reliable, just like one of the family. We're so lucky to have found her.”

Jourdan did a great job watching our pup Scout when we were out of town for the weekend! He got lots of walks, cuddles, and love. And Jourdan kept our home spotless. Pretty sure Scout has a new best friend! We’d definitely book house sitting with Jourdan again!
Cheryl is a sweet lady and did a great job taking care of our dog and home. She sent pictures and gave updates multiple times/day and even sent us a video!

The average cost of House Sitting in Foothill Farms is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $78 per night.

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 Foothill Farms 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 Foothill Farms 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 Foothill Farms 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
