“Lexy did a great job taking care of Mal and our home while we were away. We really appreciated her updates. I would definitely recommend her to others and will use her again when we are in need. Thanks!”
“So happy to have Lisa watching my 2 pups the last three days. It was our first time with her and won't be the last! I've already booked her again. Lisa was great about communicating with me. She sent an update and pics twice a day without my having to prompt her. She had great rapport with my dogs, even with shy Riley. The house was in great condition when I got home. Lisa really cares about animals and doing a good job. I appreciate all you did while I was gone.”
“Molly was amazing! I sent her a last minute request to dog sit my anxious dog and she responded right away. She was very thorough about asking the right questions, getting to know my dog’s needs, and making sure he felt safe and comfortable throughout their time together.”
“Jeni was wonderful. She's quick to respond - sends great pics, videos, and updates - and seems to know/understand dogs really well. We felt very comfortable with her staying at our home with our puppy.”
“Madelyn is now our 4-mo-old puppy's favorite person! She gave up her Thanksgiving to stay with Ziggy at our house, but it wasn't just a "stay." Madelyn played with her and give her so much love and attention. It was just what Ziggy needed and we were so happy to trust her with our puppy! We're also very happy that Madelyn will be coming back to stay with Ziggy again in a couple of weeks. Thank you, Madelyn!”
“Amazing communication, super respectful and kind. She left the place cleaner than we did and even did some of our yucky dishes which was so unnecessary! Can’t wait to book her again.”
“Yana is so lovely! She talks to my dog, which he loves and gives him lots of cuddles. Very caring and clearly loves taking care of dogs, which makes all the difference. I feel comfortable with her taking care of my dog.”
“Anna is wonderful. Our very shy dog actually cuddled up to her within a few days - that’s a first! And when another fog injured himself she rushed him to the vet. It was very minor, but we are grateful she took the precaution. All is well with him, and I think our house may be cleaner than we left it! She sent us lots of updates, it was always clear the dogs were comfortable with her and felt safe.”
“Kim did a great job watching my baby. He is super shy and she handled it perfectly. She was trustful and communicative. Would definitely use her again either for sitting or walks or anything! Thank you Kim!!✨✨⭐️💫”
“She is very nice and took good care of our dogs while we were away. Everything was clean when we returned, and most importantly, the dogs were happy and well cared for”
“Melanie was great and took really good care of our pets. She was good with direction and made sure to keep us update and maintain a peace of mind knowing we were away from our pets!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and caring for them feels natural to me. I’m patient, calm, and really pay attention to each dog’s personality. I’m used to walking energetic pups, giving extra love to shy or senior dogs, and keeping routines just the way owners prefer. Friends and neighbors always trust me because I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Your dog will get lots of care, love, and happy walks with me. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. I always start and end my day with walks, playtime, and check-ins, so caring for pets easily fits around my work and schedule. I make plenty of time for feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, and exercise. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening, I make sure each pet gets consistent love and attention throughout the day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines exactly how the owner prefers. I make sure they get enough walks, playtime, feeding, water, and any special care they need. I keep their space clean, give lots of attention, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their family is away.
About: What sets me apart is the combination of genuine love for animals and a thoughtful, detailed approach to their care. I have over 10 years of hands on experience with pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m playful and affectionate with pets, but I take the responsibility seriously. My priorities are their safety, keeping their routines consistent, and communicating with you so you know they are happy and well cared for. As a pet mom myself, I love my babies and will show the same kindness to yours. My experience includes caring for puppies and kittens through different stages of life. I have helped raise and train two puppies and would be happy to reinforce any training you are currently working on. I have also cared for a newborn kitten who needed frequent feeding and help with bathroom breaks, and I currently have three cats of my own. Over the years, I have helped family and friends with dog sitting and walking, including walking multiple dogs at once, and I have volunteered with cats available for adoption at Petco. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so I can keep them comfortable and happy while you are away. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to work around your pet’s routine and needs. Whether it’s overnight stays, drop ins, or walks, I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll follow their normal routine and spend quality time with them. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own, and keep you updated so you know how things are going.
“Alondra took a good care of my dog for 3 days that I was out of town. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and she loved Alondra . To me it was very important that my dog feels safe and not anxious when I’m out for few days and I’m glad I found Alondra that could stay with TaTa at my place so TaTa felt so relaxed. 🐶🙏🏻😍”
About: I have always loved animals and feel comfortable caring for small and medium dogs. I am calm, patient, and careful with pets. I can help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and basic daily care. I always follow the owner’s instructions and send photo updates. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I can give pets attention, walks, feeding, and regular potty breaks. I am usually available on weekdays and weekends, depending on the booking. I prefer to care for one pet at a time so I can be focused and responsible. I live in an apartment and I keep the environment clean, calm, and safe. I do not leave pets off leash outside. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep doors secure, and make sure pets have fresh water, food, potty breaks, and attention. I prefer small and medium dogs.
About: I have had many pets of all kinds. I love them all. As well as my own pets I have experience with other animals from volunteering at the West Valley Animal shelter as well as pet sitting for family and friends. I am very passionate about animal welfare. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and just keeping them company. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away, giving you peace of mind they’re in good hands. I am currently not working so my schedule is very flexible. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I love to hang out with my own pets and would love to hang out with yours too! I have two dogs, one cat, and two birds. The dogs and cat have access to a doggy/cat dog that leads to the back yard which is fenced in.
About: I have experience in caring for pets but also professional experience in the Veterinary field. I am a Vet technician so I am quite experienced with all pets and their needs. I currently work part time. My mornings are completely open and weekends as well! Please don’t hesitate to reach out to see if we can be a good fit! As an experienced pet owner/ vet technician, I understand every pet is different and depending on their personality I will work around each pets needs and respect owners requests.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Granada Hills
Lisa watched my fur baby again while we were gone for 9 days. My dog was thrilled to see her and he was incredibly well-cared for! My dog is a diabetic and has a strict feeding and insulin injection schedule and Lisa is a real pro in handling this. Also our home was equally well cared-for. Thanks Lisa!
I could not have asked for a better dog and house sitter. I met Geena and explained what I wanted done with my dogs while I was away for 3 weeks; thier feeding times, walk schedule, sleeping arrangements, etc. I was relived that she was mature, responsibe, and trustworthy. She updated me daily with texts and photos of my (2) dogs whom I missed terribly. She brought in mail and kept the house nice and tidy and controlled the A/C. I was able to travel without worrying as I knew Geena was giving love and attention to my little ones. Without reservation I would hire Geena again !!!
Anna is great! I’ve never used Rover before and my two dogs are like my children so there was a lot of anxiety leaving them with someone I didn’t know. I used her for both a drop in and over night sitting and everything went great! My dogs are highly anxious but Anna kept us constantly updated on how they were doing which was so helpful. My dogs even managed to settle down and relax a bit which is huge for them. Would definitely use her again!
I'm already planning on booking Rachael again. She went above and beyond while caring for my dog, Wilma. Not only did Wilma absolutely love her, but Rachael also brought in my mail, watered my plants, and made sure everything at home was taken care of while I was away. She sent multiple photos and updates every single day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I never had to wonder how Wilma was doing because I always knew she was happy, loved, and in great hands. Being away from your dog can be stressful, but thanks to Rachael, I wasn't worried at all. I can't recommend her highly enough, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
This is our second time using Emily and she is just fantastic! I cannot recommend her enough, she is so caring and thoughtful and provides such excellent care for our fur baby. She sends daily updates and pictures and also took great care of the house since we had her stay at the house for the duration of our vacation as well. Highly trustworthy and responsible, we would continue to use her again every time!
I highly recommend Luke to take care of your furry family. Our dog is wary of strange men at the outset but she warmed up to Luke very quickly. This was our first vacation away from her since we rescued her so we weren't sure how she'd handle the change in caretakers but she did better than I expected. Luke was responsive and sent daily pics and updates. He was also great at watching our house for us while we were out of town. Thanks Luke!
Farrah was really great! She stayed at our house for a week with our dog and did an amazing job. She sent lots of updates and was always very reachable whenever we checked in, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also kind enough to come by a few days before we left to do a walk-through of the house and meet our dog, which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy dog and a house left in great condition. We truly appreciated having someone so trustworthy and reliable caring for both our home and our dog. We would absolutely recommend Farrah and would love to work with her again.
Joycelyn is awesome! She took wonderful care of our pup Shiloh. She’s exceptionally warm, accommodating and kind, and that made all the difference with our baby. We have a lot of unique instructions to take care of our dog because he does have some behavior issues and she handled it perfectly. 10 out of 10, 100% recommend and we will absolutely be hiring her again!

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 Granada Hills 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 Granada Hills 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 Granada Hills 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.
