“David is an incredible sitter! He connected with all four (yes, FOUR) of my animals (3 cats + 1dog) while we were away. He provided frequent updates with pictures and didn’t hesitate asking questions. David offers a calm energy, is completely attentive, enjoys playing and connecting with each animal and bonded with them so effortlessly - he is amazing! Thank you, David, for taking such incredible care of our fur-family!”

Clearly comfortable around dogs and even when Penny was a little stubborn to leave me, Ari was able to easily get her moving and on her walk. Highly recommend her and I know Penny will be excited to see her again!”

About: With years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, I understand that every animal is unique. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior cat who loves a gentle routine, or an energetic dog in need of extra exercise, I provide personalized attention to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart? ✅ **Reliable & Attentive:** I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their well-being and emotional needs. ✅ **Experienced in Special Care:** I’m familiar with administering medications, handling senior pets, and understanding different temperaments. ✅ **Flexible & Communicative:** I keep pet parents updated with detailed check-ins, photos, and reassurance that their furry family member is in great hands. ✅ **Passionate About Enrichment:** Whether it’s stimulating playtime, structured walks, or maintaining a comforting routine, I focus on keeping pets happy and engaged. I take pride in building trust—not just with pets, but with their humans too. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter who goes above and beyond, I’d love to connect! I work mostly from home, so I'll have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pets. I do occasionally have to go out, but I never exceed a 4-5 hour period of leaving your pets alone. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them in their familiar surroundings while maintaining their routine. I respect their space, provide companionship, and ensure they have everything they need—from fresh water and meals to enriching playtime and walks. Communication is key, so I keep pet parents updated with regular check-ins, photos, and any necessary observations.

About: Having 2 dogs of my own I am well versed in every aspect of making pets feel loved and cared for! I have cared for pets for nearly 8 years house sitting overnight, taking pups for lengthy walks and doing check ins/ feedings. I make it my mission to bond with your pet and make sure they are comfortable. I am available for pet sitting when I am home from college. My schedule is mostly flexible with majority of my availability being in the afternoons/evenings on weekdays and all day on weekends. I make sure that pets have the chance to warm up to me and that I put their needs first. I am comfortable with judging when a dog wants to go for a longer walk or head home early. Similarly with cats, I am able to gauge if a cat needs extra play time or if they want to be alone to nap. I will always check in with you as the owner before I sit, to make sure I know exactly what your pet needs!

“Pat stepped in and coordinated a smooth transition of care with my previous cat sitter when I was stranded and unable to return home in time. She went above and beyond to work with me to make sure my cat was cared for and not left alone, and offered extra time with my cat, support, and reassurance when I was panicked and stuck a second time at the airport. So grateful for her care, highly recommend!”

She left my place tidy and took great care of my sweet girl. Next time we will try a longer stay to see how she does. It was great having someone who understands the needs of senior pups.”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and even started my own dog walking business when I was ten. I love animals … maybe even more than people. 😂 I’d be honored to care for your cats and dogs while you’re away. I would love to help you care for your pets when my children are at school…and if it’s okay for them to visit with your sweet dogs and cats as well I have TONS of flexibility all day. I am very careful with pets. They are part of the family. Please tell me what you feel comfortable with and I will follow the instructions to the last detail. I have so much love to give these animals and am hoping to get to spend my time with helping them not miss you too much while you’re away.

About: I’ve worked with young dogs and understand the extra patience, structure, and energy they need. Got a high-energy pup who needs to run? I’m in. Got a mellow dog who just wants company on the couch? That works too. I adapt to what your individual dog needs rather than sticking to one mode because every dog is different. ChemE students don’t cut corners, I apply that same precision to pet care. Feeding times, medications, walk routes, behavioral notes. I pay attention to the details that matter and I communicate proactively if anything seems off. Unlike sitters juggling work or classes, I’m home for the summer with real time to give your dog. With a flexible summer schedule, I build my day around your dog walks, feeding, playtime, and checkins come first, every time.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ I am available anytime and willing to go above and beyond. I follow your pet’s exact routine feeding schedules, walks, medications, and habit whether I’m in your home or mine, consistency and comfort always come first.

About: Hi Pet parents! My name is Sophie and I’ve been a dog owner for all 19 years I’ve been alive - using all of that time to gain experience walking, taking care of, cleaning up after, training, and ensuring the safety of my pups. I’m comfortable with any size level and activity level- I’ve seen it all! I also have experience house sitting and taking care of friend’s/family’s pets while they are away. I’m looking to take care of some animals while I’m home from college for the summer because it’s what I do best! Thank you for entrusting me with the health and needs of your baby 🩷 I’m a college student who is home for the summer! I’m not working any jobs outside of this, so I can give your pup all of the love and attention and exercise they deserve! I have a fenced yard so there is no risk of running into the road and a large house/yard for the dogs to play around in. I have a 10 year old Boston terrier who is extremely friendly and she loves making new friends! If your dog doesn’t work well with others, I have enough space to separate them completely and comfortably.

I am so glad I found Lydia. She went above and beyond. She even helped my sister when she needed to find some things at the apt for me. She sent photos and updates everyday. She took Rosco for a lot of walks, out to the park and to run errands with her. I really feel like she treated him like her own pup.

Cory has taken care of my "easy" dog, Ginger, before. Then I double down and asked her to dog-sit both my dogs. Pepper is lovely... but a bit spicy with other dogs and has a prey drive that doesn't quit. All went well, and I returned home to two happy and healthy pups:-)

We could not have asked for a better cat sitter than Marilee, she not only took exceptional care of our kitten, but also went above and beyond to ensure he was stimulated and happy while we were away. She brought him things like string toys and newspapers to play with- which kept him really active and entertained. In addition to her A++ care, she also was great communicating with us. I loved getting little videos and pictures of him every day. I highly recommend Marilee- she really is a cat whisperer! Marilee also

Susan was amazing. We were very concerned about leaving our three dogs for the first time in years especially our 16 yr old with health issues. However, Susan did an incredible job handling the special needs of all three dogs from food issues to medications. On our first meet and greet we could see she was truly an animal lover and had the patience and disposition we were looking for as a dog/house sitter. We would highly recommend Susan to anyone who is looking for to care for their fur babies while out of town. We will definitely be using Susan again!

This is our first time using Rover to find someone to come into our home and take care of our pets. I like the reviews of Ryan and scheduled a meet and greet with him to make sure he would comfortable with staying at the house. My main concern was keeping the dog and cat separated since they don't get along. Ryan sent me updates of how things were going, which was reassuring. Joplin (dog) really liked Ryan and she doesn't like everyone. We came home from our trip and Joplin was very happy to see us. Joplin actually looked the next morning to see if Ryan was still in the spare room :-). I would definitely use Ryan again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Gallinas

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Gallinas on Rover is $43.87 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 7,210 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gallinas. 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 Gallinas 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 Gallinas 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 Gallinas 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 Gallinas. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
