“I can't say enough good things about our recent experience with Johnna pet/house sitting for us. Johnna took the time to meet us first to make sure it would be a good fit. Our dog is a senior and Johnna was so kind and considerate of all of his needs. Her little dog Bonnie is so adorable and I think having her here made Dexter feel even more comfortable. She sent us daily updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. She left the house spotless and even watered our outdoor plants! It was by far the best experience I have had with a pet sitter. I have already reserved another pet sitting!”
“Thank you Raina. You did a wonderful job taking care of my animals. My Bearded Dragon looked well loved and well exercised. That took patience on your part! Thank you for dealing with a senior dog.”
“Shelby is amazing! She took care of our pup while we were vacationing in Costa Rica. I was nervous about leaving him because he’s quite clingy with my husband and me. She checked in daily, sending me pictures and updates. It made me feel at ease knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Zair came to our house for 3 nights to care for our dog, Laney. Laney is fearful of strangers but I could tell from photos sent that she was calm and comfortable. I really appreciated that.”
“Casey took care of our 3 pups and she was amazing! She stayed at our house and it was left in perfect condition. We would completely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”
About: Growing up with dogs, I have provided lifelong care for them from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me deep experience in their unique needs. I am fully capable of administering medications, and I am highly diligent about following specific feeding and exercise schedules. My background ensures I provide consistent, reliable, and compassionate care for your pet, treating them with the same love and attention I have dedicated to my own dogs throughout my years of experience. I'm currently working a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of availability to give your pets my undivided attention! I am available on weekends and weekdays. For services like dog walking or drop-in visits at the client's home, I provide attentive and reliable care. I focus on maintaining the pet's routine, ensuring they get exercise, and providing companionship. I'm skilled at adapting to different pet personalities and environments, always prioritizing their safety and happiness during our time together.
About: With an energetic pup of my own, I am no stranger to the needs of fur babies. Consistency is key when it comes to pet care and training. I will make sure your pups gets plenty of exercise with a walk around your local neighborhood. Each dog is unique and I will be certain to cater to your individual pets needs. But no matter what, I will be certain that each doggo gets the same loving care as if they were one of my own. I am currently very flexible in my schedule so I can offer walks or drop ins for potty breaks and daily enrichment or house sitting for more comprehensive care for your pet when you’re away! I would love to check on your fur baby if you're busy so they don't get lonely! Personally, I have my own rambunctious pup named Lila who loves treats, walks, and attention. I would treat your dog like my own in care and affection!
“Cheryl was great. She communicated with me the entire time and provided a bunch of pictures to make me feel better about leaving them. She was very kind and understanding of my dogs individual needs and treated them amazingly well. I would use Cheryl again without a doubt.”
“Fatima did such a wonderful job with our two goldens! We are so careful and particular with who we leave them with and she made us so comfortable and provided them with the BEST care while we were gone. We asked for one walk a day and she gave them two! :) she threw the ball for them and reached out when one pup was forgoing her breakfast & dinner, I was able to give her tips to get the dog to eat. :) and she followed them and it worked! Loved that she reached out and made me feel like I could trust her with them as she was very communicative. I would absolutely hire her again!”
“Alexis is fantastic! Immediately I noticed she had a nice peaceful energy, which is really important for my nervous girl. She gave me unprompted morning and evening updates with pictures, and never once did I worry or wonder how things were going. My home was also just as clean as I’d left it when I returned. Will absolutely be booking with her again, and for the long run! Thank you Alexis, Ms. Millie was so happy spending time with you! <3”
“Brandie took such great care of Coco and of my house. She was great sending me updates and pictures. I came home to a happy calm pup who had clearly gotten lots of love. I will definitely be booking Brandie again!”
“Piper was great with my rambunctious, one year old Doberman! He has a lot of energy and Piper didn't miss a beat taking care of him for my work trip! He was very happy to see her! Thanks again, Piper!!”
“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.”
About: Loved and cared for two puppies, potty trained them and how to sit and shake. Currently caring for our second chihuahua that is 10 y/o I am currently taking classes on the weekdays for a Personal Training program—which is really flexible. The weekends will be needed for a second job. Treating every pet and home like my own, I follow routines closely by keeping doors locked, sending photo updates, and staying responsive throughout your trip.
About: As the only single, childless work-from-home girlie in the family, I've been the go-to house sitter for all my relatives in the area for years now. I've cared for dogs, cats, and even a pigeon. I had a lot of pets growing up, and I hope to have some of my own in the future. Until then, I plan to quell the overwhelming urge to adopt every puppy I see by taking care of other people's pets :) I have a full time, fully-remote job, and I usually work from around 8am-4pm. However, as you might expect, the work is very flexible, so I can take breaks to walk the pups and give them food/attention as needed with no problems. My current living space isn't set up for additional animals, but I'm happy to come to you! I have a car, so I won't have any issues getting getting there.
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.
“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! 🐾❤️”

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! She happily did everything we asked her to do and even stayed an hour longer than requested because our dog wasn’t settling down well for bed. We highly recommend Cheryl for dog and house sitting!
Johnna is the best! By far one of the Best pet sitters I have had. She is someone you can trust to take care of your pets and your home. I completely trust her and know she will be there always. I Don’t have to worry if my pets or my home is being taken care of. My pets love her and I will Always reach out to her first before anyone else
Laura did a great job caring for our menagerie of pets. Having 3 dogs and 4 cats is a big job but Laura did a fantastic job of caring for all of them. She followed all my instructions and also left my house spotless. She is a great communicator and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her.
I am so happy we chose Kaiya to care for my babies while I was traveling. From the start her warm personality was apparent and I could see my pups would be comfortable having her care for them. She provided frequent communication and sent cute photos. Even my shy rescue pup was quickly at ease.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
