About: I love animals and have been pet-sitting for friends and family for as long as I can remember. I am excited to help you out and become friends with your dog(s). If you are walking or skating distance (under 5 miles), I can be available regularly AM, afternoon, & PM. Otherwise we will have to schedule 2 days in advance. Thank you! I only offer walks, and pet sitting at your home. This means I will come to your home and have a walking route planned out for your dog, refill fresh water, & food (if needed). If it's cat or cats, I will refill water and food as needed as well. I love animals and Im sure you'll see thay upon meeting the first time. I look forward to helping any way I can.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid and my experiences have ranged from puppies to senior dogs with special medical needs and disabilities. I’m an animal lover and have love and respect for all living beings. I do my best to make sure your fur baby is comfortable, attended to and loved. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom, so I will have all the time available to take care of your beloved dog. I’m available for boarding, daycare, drop in visits and walking. My home has a roomy, fenced in backyard and I have a super friendly pup at home. There is plenty of space to play, run and sniff! I do not let the dogs go outside unattended. They are always supervised to ensure safety. I’m also able to crate your dog whenever needed if that is preferred.

“Leaving your beloved pet behind while traveling, especially for an extended period, is never easy. However, Liana made this experience incredibly smooth and worry-free for me. Entrusting my dog to her care while I had to leave the country for two months was one of the best decisions I've made. Liana's dedication to my dog's well-being was evident from the start. She not only ensured that all of his needs were met but also went above and beyond to make sure he felt loved and secure in my absence. Her attention to detail, from maintaining his daily routine to providing regular updates and photos, reassured me that my dog was in the best hands. What stood out most was Liana's genuine love for animals. My dog, who can be quite selective in his affections, absolutely adored her. This bond they formed was a testament to her kind and caring nature.I returned home to find my dog happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, which speaks volumes of Liana's exceptional care. For anyone in need of a reliable, compassionate, and skilled dog sitter, I cannot recommend Liana highly enough. She not only ensured my peace of mind during my travels but also provided my dog with a loving companion in my absence.”

She has also been very willing to communicate as needed to ensure that our expectations will be met and that we will come home to a pet that was well cared for.

About: I provide calm, home-style boarding with maximum of 2 dogs at a time, so each dog gets plenty of attention and space. My home has a large, fully gated yard and an open layout, so dogs can move freely and feel comfortable-no overcrowding or stress. I am experianced with dogs up to 80 lbs and focus on creating a safe, relaxed environment, especially for dogs who don't do well in busy boarding settings. I keep routines consistent and send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your dog is doing. this is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a calm, clean and secure home while you're away. I always had dogs in my family and I was taking care of them. Also, I took care of our family’s and friend’s dogs. I like to interact, to play with them, that they won’t feel alone. Fortunately, I am home always to give potty breaks, provide treats, and get in some cuddle and playtime. I always had dogs.. Three years ago, I had three dogs. Two of them passed away. Third one, Chihuahua, who passed away last year. I missed my dogs. It’s very soon and difficult for me to get another dog, but I will be happy to have guest pets in our house. I live in a house with backyard. I have a fully fenced backyard if your pup loves to be outside. I am home all day and night, and dogs are my life. I take them out for walks around a beautiful quiet neighborhood. Lots of birds, trees, squirrels, and all the fun stuff dogs enjoy.

About: I’ve dedicated years to caring for dogs through rescue, fostering, boarding, and pet sitting. I also run a dog rescue, so caring for dogs is a huge part of my everyday life. I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments—including shy, fearful, anxious, and behaviorally challenging dogs who need extra patience and understanding. I also have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs with medical needs and special care requirements, including administering medications and monitoring dogs who need extra attention. I have my own Yorkie, Duchess, who absolutely loves having friends over! She’s used to sharing her space with foster dogs and visiting pups, which makes my home a fun and social environment for dogs who enjoy canine companionship. One of the things my clients especially love is that their dogs can get healthy, appropriate socialization while staying with me. Because I regularly foster dogs, your pup can enjoy companionship and interaction with other dogs when it’s a good fit for their personality. I always prioritize safety and make sure every dog’s individual needs and comfort level come first. And there’s plenty of room to enjoy it! I have a beautiful, dog-friendly 3,000-square-foot backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, relax, and get some exercise. I also believe you shouldn’t have to wonder how your dog is doing while you’re away. I provide daily photo and video updates so you can see your pup enjoying their stay, getting comfortable, and receiving plenty of love and attention. To me, dogs are family—not just pets. When your dog is in my care, they’ll receive lots of love, attention, companionship, and individualized care in a home where dogs are genuinely part of everyday life. My goal is for you to feel completely confident knowing your dog is being cared for as one of my own. I run a foster-based dog rescue, and most of the work is done from my phone, so my daily life genuinely revolves around dogs. I also work in the fashion industry, but typically only 1–3 days per month. On the rare occasions I’m working, I have professional dog trainers I work with who can step in and provide care. This means your dog will never be left without attentive, experienced care or have a lapse in their routine. Most days, I’m home and available throughout the day for walks, playtime, cuddles, and individual attention. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can always see how your pup is doing. I have a beautiful, dog-friendly 3,000-square-foot backyard where pups can safely play, explore, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time. My Yorkie, Duchess, loves having friends over! I also run a foster-based dog rescue, so I have extensive experience safely introducing and socializing dogs with different personalities and needs. Through my rescue work, I have extensive hands-on experience recognizing when a dog may be uncomfortable, becoming ill, or experiencing a medical issue, and knowing when professional veterinary care is needed. I keep many of the supplies and essentials needed to address common issues on hand and have established relationships with multiple veterinary offices for additional support when needed. Dogs are always supervised, and I can accommodate crating, separation, medication routines, and other individual needs. My priority is making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me.

About: Since 2009, I have had dogs... I absolutely love them (and really all animals)! I cared for my two dogs until their passing at approximately 9 years of age since they were puppies. While in graduate school, I volunteered at the Oakland Animal Shelter for a few months taking care of pigeons, such as feeding them and cleaning their cages. So, if you have some unusual animals- I am open to taking care of them too! I also had a 2 week experience cat sitting for my cousin's senior cat by feeding/giving her water and general watching her. So, I have good experience with taking care of cats too although I have never had a cat personally. At the moment, I have my senior dog, Mr. Beau, an 11 year American Staff Terrier I adopted in 2023 at the shelter. While I was at the Oakland Animal Shelter, staff made it known that senior animals are the most often overlooked animals for adoption and that made me feel sad :( So once I was able to, I made it a mission to adopt a senior pup, and I am so happy and fulfilled with my decision. As with any senior (including humans), they come with special needs, such as different medications, loss of hearing, limited walking, increase in illnesses, etc. My dog has had many complications, but with my great patience with senior pups, I feel confident in taking care of their specific needs! I know what it is like to trust strangers with taking care of your pet- its scary! Mr. Beau has specific senior needs and is picking, so I hope my experience can make you feel more comfortable with choosing me to take care of your pet when you're away! Experience: senior dogs, puppies, cats, birds, or other types of pets. I am open-minded! I was laid off from my job at the end of June, so I while I am applying to full time work, I have time to take care of pets in the meantime to fill my weekly schedule! While I cannot provide pet sitting services at my own home because my dog is not friendly with other dogs (sad face), I am skilled in meeting with my where my clients are at. I love to ask questions about the pet's history, current physical state, quirks, boundaries, etc. so I don't cause unnecessary stress or issues. Depending on the pet's attitudes and boundaries, I am open to playing, walking, or just simply checking in on them. I want to try to make their environment as healthy and safe as possible, so for instance, if its too hot in the house, I'd like to verify with the owner is opening a window or using the air conditioner is okay.

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.

Halle provided 3x a day drop in visits over four days. She was always on time and stayed with Luka for at least the the amount of time requested.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Granada Hills on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $42 per visit. 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 16,038 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Granada Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Granada Hills. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
