“Just got home from a 4-day vacation and our 2 pups first experience with Rover house sitting. Chelsea and Richard were fantastic, dogs were happy and content, house was clean. They did so many extra unasked things and even left some homemade Bundt cakes! They sent us pictures each day and did a wonderful job. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pet. I also have repeat dog-sitting experience, including caring for the same dog for extended stays while his family travels. This has included multiple extended stays ranging from five days to two weeks, so I understand the responsibility that comes with being trusted with someone’s pet while they’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles and following your pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I know every pet has their own personality, so whether yours loves constant attention or prefers a little space, I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable! I’m reliable, attentive and respectful of both your pets and your home, and I’m always happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands! 🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for drop-in visits as well as overnight house sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual feeding, playtime and care routine. I know how important consistency is for cats, so I’ll do my best to keep their days feeling as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, so I’ll always respect your home and follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll carefully follow any feeding, litter, playtime or other care instructions you provide, and make sure doors and windows are secure when coming and going. I’m respectful, clean and considerate of your space, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing both your pet and your home are being well cared for!
“Juan was incredible with my dog, Nova. I was 3,000 miles away and he gave me the peace of mind I needed to enjoy myself on my trip. He was absolutely outstanding with being on time, giving updates often, and letting me know my dog was in good hands. Juan is my go to dog walker for any time I need someone to look after Nova.”
“Emma is such a wonderful person you can put your trust to care of your furry baby. She constantly sent me updates and pictures of mi little monster. And she took my Freyja for many walkies. Freyja absolutely loved Emma!”
“Marissa is great! She is very flexible and was willing to change her plans as our plans changed at the last minute. I have been looking for someone I trust to stay with our pups and I finally found her! Marissa surpassed my expectations. We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Ally was so wonderful again taking care of Ollie, and she even made the long drive up to our new home when we were in a bind trying to find someone more local for a weekend. Ally sends tons of updates and is very communicative. I highly recommend her!”
About: I'm a dedicated dog owner myself so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I'm patient, attentive e and committed to making every walk safe, fun and stress free. I treat every dog like family. I balance my work schedule with pet care and always make time to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care. I carefully plan my days to ensure each dog receives safe, enjoyable walks and consistent attention. On walks, I focus on providing safe, enjoyable exercise tailored to each dog’s energy level.

Oh my goodness! I almost don't want to leave a review because it make make Vincent's schedule so busy that I will have a hard time booking with him again! He is a gem! He checks all the boxes for a pet and housesitter; kind, considerate, keeps in touch, cheerful, prompt....the superlatives are all there and all well deserved. Our pets absolutely loved him (even the fussy cat!) and I feel that everything is in competent hands while I'm away.
She was absolutely incredible! Watched our cat and dog with the upmost care! Kept me updated every day and let me know if anything was up with the pets and even our home! And the fur babies just loved her company! Made them feel very comfortable and safe! Played with them, walked and fed in a timely manner. Just hands down one of the best sitters! Highly recommend hiring her!!
Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home and took such great care of our dog Mookie and our house. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable and knew Mookie was in good hands. She was responsible, communicative, respectful and sent lots of updates and photos. We would absolutely trust Stephanie with our home and dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Gabby did an amazing job dog sitting for our little fur baby Romeo. This was the first time we used Rover and I contacted Gabby based on her location and profile. Turned out to be the best decision I could’ve made for me and my wife. We were traveling with a pooch to catch some games in Anaheim and Gabby was available to take care of our little guy Saturday and Sunday. Gabby was very attentive, she sent pictures and videos and really made the experience special and worthwhile. If you need the services and you’re in Orange, California, try to book Gabby you won’t be disappointed.
We were very happy with Dahlia. We could tell from her updates, photos, and videos how much she really loved our dog. Dahlia played all of Shadow's favorite games, kept to her schedule, and cuddled with her. I think Shadow might actually be happy the next time our family leaves for a vacation because she enjoyed Dahlia so much!
Marco was very helpful and accommodating with my schedule change. We met at my hotel for a quick meet and greet and then stayed in my room while I bounced around the city. He’s punctual, he pays attention and seems like a pretty trustworthy guy. He safely watched my dog sleep (her favorite hobby) and got her out for a quick walk which is all we needed. He has great communication and is quick to respond; also his rates are extremely reasonable for the service. I recommend you reach out to Marco if you need your dog watched while out visiting Disneyland or the greater Anaheim Resort Area.
Tiffany went above and beyond caring for Mikey while we were away. This was the first time I had ever left him, so I was naturally nervous, but she completely put me at ease from the start. She sent continuous photo updates, which meant so much and allowed me to see how happy and comfortable he was throughout his stay. Tiffany is incredibly organized, attentive, and meticulous in her care. It was obvious that she truly cared about Mikey's well-being and treated him like family. Knowing he was in such capable and caring hands made all the difference. I cannot recommend Tiffany highly enough and will absolutely trust her with Mikey again in the future.
Lauren is phenomenal! She did an excellent job with our timid rescue dog. He immediately took to her. She was loving, playful, gentle and communicative. It was a relief to know our sweet boy was being so well loved while we enjoyed some time with the family. I would highly recommend Lauren, without any hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fullerton is $70 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $99 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 13,936 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fullerton. 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 Fullerton 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 Fullerton 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 Fullerton 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.
