“Edith was absolutely FANTASTIC with our furry kids! When she came over for the meet and greet before our trip, I could instantly tell she was a dog person, as she was familiar with how to probably introduce herself to dogs in their home. During her stay, our dogs obviously took to her very quickly and wanted to be close to her while she was there. She sent regular updates, was very communicative and warm, I just dont have enough good things to say about her. We will be reaching out to Edith again in the future so our pups can hang out with their new friend 🧡 🐾”
About: Hello, I'm Ashley! I'm a veterinary assistant currently preparing to apply to veterinary school next year. I have experience working with dogs and cats in animal hospital/clinic, shelter, and daycare/at-home settings. I'm experienced with in dog walking, playgroups and cat care. I can also administer medications, prepare directed diets needed or give special-needs care. I am currently a full-time student and working part-time at my vet clinic. Therefore, I am mostly available on the weekends, but I can do drop-in visits on various days of the week. If discussed (and if stars align, of course), I can do weekend stays overnight with your furry kiddos! Special requirements may be discussed and we can come to an agreement on your pet's care that works for all of us 🐾 Whether it's walks, playtime, or cuddles, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I'll care for your pets with the same love and attention I give my own gals, a black lab and my lil tripod kitty cat! As a pre-vet student who is also working full time, I'm currently available for pet care on weekends or for holidays. When your precious fur baby is in my care, they'll receive my full attention! Whether that's walks, playtime, enrichment, or plenty of cuddles, I strive to provide reliable and attentive care. I will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a veterinary assistant, I am experienced handling dogs and cats with a variety of personalities and needs. As a Type-A, I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I understand that every pet is unique, and I'll treat yours with the same patience, love, and care that I give my own fur babies!
“Jennifer took good care of our pups and was respectful to our house. She was a pleasure to work with and we felt that our dogs were in great care. She kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. I would not hesitate to have her watch them again.”
“Elle was terrific! We needed care for our 2 dogs while we were gone to wedding. She came over and met us and the dogs ahead of time. The dogs loved her right off. She has a caring personality and they loved that... One of our dogs is a senior diabetic that needs shots. Elly was more than willing to handle that as well as the pills they needed. She sent lots of pictures and notes about how it was going. Everything went well and we plan to request her in the near future. So glad to have someone that we trust with their care.”
About: I’ve taken care of dog around me for about my whole life. Different types of dogs as well always been surrounded by them growing up no a thing or two about them. And love watching them and playing with them. I’m currently not working right now so I’m available at all time times throughout the week. So My schedule is pretty flexible and durable right now. I have a fenced yard. I do have a guinea pig, but she is caged up and no other pets. Will do daily check ups check in with the owner.
“Yu Jie was absolutely awesome, especially being available for me on such short notice. She pampered my bundle of joy, Spirit, by taking him on multiple walks, playing with him, and keeping him entertained. With all his energy, she made sure he stayed active and happy. She also made sure he ate at his appropriate time, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was well cared for. Yu Jie went above and beyond, by not just meeting his needs, but making him feel loved. She is welcoming, kind, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I will definitely continue to trust her with my Spirit and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to take care of their furry babies.”
“Ann took amazing care of our pup while we were away for a week. We loved getting the updates and never had to worry! When we arrived home, we could tell he was relaxed and extremely well taken care of!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I love getting to know their unique personalities, keeping them company, making sure they feel safe and loved. Your furry family member will get lots of attention, affection and TLC with me. I work from home giving me flexibility for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, plenty of attention throughout the day and evening with lots of love. I want your fur baby to feel safe and comfortable in their home. I’ll follow their usual routine, give them plenty of love and attention just as you would. ❤️
“Loved having Laurie stay with our 3 Golden’s. They seemed happy, and she sent pics of them daily. I was able to enjoy myself, knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I have a deep love for animals and years of practical experience caring for pets of various breeds and sizes. I am highly attentive to their body language, energy levels, and specific daily routines, ensuring they always feel safe, happy, and well-loved while their owners are away. I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. Whether it is morning walks, afternoon playtime, or overnight boarding, I can easily accommodate your pet's regular feeding and exercise routines without any rush. Safety is always my top priority. When watching pets, I maintain a secure, hazard-free environment and closely supervise all interactions. I strictly follow the owner's specific instructions regarding diet, medication, and outdoor habits, and I will keep you updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Isabel did an amazing job taking care of my puppy! She was diligent, communicative, caring snd so kind. I truly appreciated her quick responses and photo and video updates. I will definitely reach out to her again and recommend her for anyone looking for someone responsible to take care of their pet. Thank you, Isabel!”
“Another amazing house/dog-sitting experience with Destiny! Our pups love her and we love her. She's very communicative, helpful, and professional. We're looking forward to her next stay!!!”
About: Consider me a house sitter as well!! I have taken on additional responsibilities such as collecting mail, dusting, sweeping,watering plants, yard, moving vehicles. Your wish is my command. I currently work from home. I work for the County of San Bernardino so I went thru background and fingerprint for my current role. That also helps you feel comfortable watching your pet. I also know how stressful it can be to leave your pup while on vacation. I will send photos throughout your vacation. I’m comfortable administering medication and caring for animals with special needs.
“Myles was an great house sitter and companion for my 3-year-old Boxer, Layla. Layla, who was recently rescued, is still working on her trust issues, but by the second day, she was following him everywhere. Myles is polite, kind, and reliable. I’d love for him to look after Layla again.”
About: Hi, I'm Chelsea! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first with me. ❤️ I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your pets, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re with someone who will genuinely care for them like they’re my own. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and currently have animals of my own, including dogs, cats, rats, and reptiles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do for work, it’s something I truly love. I understand that no two pets are the same. Some want all the cuddles and attention, while others need patience and time to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, respect their boundaries, and take the time to learn their personality and what makes them feel safe. I’m comfortable with dogs of all different sizes, including large and strong breeds, and I understand how important it is to stay attentive and responsible on walks. Trust is also very important to me. I’ve worked with the same professional cleaning company for about 10 years, so I’m regularly trusted inside clients’ homes and understand the responsibility that comes with that. You can expect plenty of communication, photos, and updates while your pet is with me. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without constantly wondering if your pet is okay. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or caring for your pets while you’re away, they’ll receive the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want someone to give my own. Because to me, they’re never “just a pet.” They’re family. 🐾 I work part time and have a very flexible schedule to help with yours and your pets needs,most of the weekends im available as well! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow your care instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, keep a clean and secure environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send regular photo updates for peace of mind.
“Adriana was great! She listened perfectly to instructions and took wonderful care of my senior pup with special needs. She kept him comfortable and enriched the entire time she cared for him. Would definitely recommend!”
“We went on vacation for 2 weeks and came home to happy, healthy dogs. I cannot tell you how nice it is to go on vacation and know your dogs will get the best care while you’re away. Thank you Casey, once again. I highly recommend Casey for your pet care!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Glen Avon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glen Avon on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,351 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Glen Avon. 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 Glen Avon 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 Glen Avon 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 Glen Avon 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.

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.
