“Omg thank u soooo much Deanna. My dogs were in such good moods when I came home- soft and happy! Thank you for taking care of everything 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 one of my boys needs extra behavioral attention on walks. Deanna was fantastic. I highly recommend. She’s a gem!!!!”
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Samantha to look after my senior buddy, Buster, a cantankerous old soul who generally isn't fond of strangers. To say that I was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional care provided by Samantha would be an understatement. What truly set Samantha apart was her patience and attentiveness. Recognizing the quirks of my aging Buster, she took the time to learn his habits, preferences, and, most importantly, his boundaries. Rather than forcing interaction, she let Buster set the pace, gradually earning his trust with each passing day. She kept me up to date with pictures and communication, she also took exceptional care of our home.”
“Jae took excellent care of Ginny. We had an unexpected delay with the CrowdStrike travel delays and Jae was able to extend an extra day. Plenty of photos of Ginny, very respectful of our home and excellent communication. Highly recommended.”
“Mira was absolutely amazing for our dogs this weekend. Her level of professionalism and standard she holds herself to is very high. She had a great line of communication with us and continued to keep us in the loop daily about how our animals were doing. We will 100% be looking forward to having her dog sit for us again in the future.”

“Cayla did so great with my senior dog and also 9 week old puppy. She even helped with potty training! She left my house spotless after leaving and continued to give me updates and send photos while she was dog sitting. I will definitely hire her again and I recommend that you all do too!”
About: I have had experience in dog sitting and walking puppies! I have always wanted a dog but just do not have the room for it at home so pet sitting for friends has always been something I have loved doing!

I make sure to care for pets with as much love as I can! Seeing a stranger come into your home can be daunting so I try to be as graceful as possible when meeting and interacting with the clients pets!

“Alex is an amazing dog sitter for my very anxious boy. Communication was excellent and so friendly. My senior dog requires a lot of medications and I didn’t worry about him at all in her care. I am so grateful.”
About: I genuinely love being around dogs and have been trusted by friends and family to care for their pets many times over the years. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and focused on making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for pets has been part of my life through helping friends and family with their dogs over the years. With graduation coming up and a flexible summer schedule, I'm excited to spend more time doing something I really enjoy. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment. I follow the owner's instructions carefully, making sure their pet receives plenty of attention and care, whether they re staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own home.
“Bryce did a great job w/ our 2 boxers. They're crazy, needy and a little too much for some people, but they didn't seem to bother him at all. We really appreciate Bryce staying at our house since our dogs can have seperation anxiety and tear things up. We also received photos daily which helped our anxiety as well. We will be using Bryce in the future! Thank you!”

I’m skilled in administering medications—including injections for diabetic animals and eye treatments—and provide compassionate, reliable care for pets of all kinds. References are available upon request. I’ve just completed a medical program and recently got a part-time job. With some availability, I’m happy to offer pet sitting services as a flexible side income while I work part-time. I work 6 hours Tuesday-Friday.

I also provide dog walking and advanced care for pets with special needs or medication requirements.
“Brandie stayed at my house for 4 days with my dog and 3 cats. She left the house in great condition and even watered my plants and brought in my mail. She is a natural with animals. My dog developed a tight connection with her and she did a great job taking care of him even in the very warm weather. She was great with the cats as well; playing with them and tending to their needs. I appreciate that she kept the dog and cats apart as they do not like each other. I highly recommend Brandie for your pet sitting and dog walking needs.”
About: I have over 3 years of experience dog sitting for more than 8 regular clients. I am highly flexible, reliable, and open to accommodating your schedule. I am also comfortable administering oral medications (pills) if your pet requires them. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their dogs, and I treat every pet like my own! I am a full-time pet sitter and an online college student, which means my schedule is incredibly open and flexible! Because I study from home, I am around almost all day to provide constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of potty breaks and playtime for your pets. I have grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, giving me a lifetime of hands-on experience. I personally own two large Mastiff breeds—a Cane Corso and a Boerboel—as well as a cat, all of whom I’ve successfully raised and cared for over the last 4 to 7 years. My home features a secure, fenced yard where your pet can safely play. Because I am highly experienced with both powerful, large dog breeds and smaller feline companions, I know exactly how to maintain a safe, balanced, and harmonious environment for all types of pets!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Granite Bay
Deanna did a fantabulous job taking care of our four-legged fur babies and house while we were out of town! Great communicator, (responded quickly and thoroughly to sit request, and sent pictures and let me know the puppies were doing well throughout the stay); arrived on time for both meet and greet and the day we left; followed complicated feeding and supplement giving directions, as well as how to avoid getting skunked protocols!; kept the house tidy and clean; and both dogs loved being with her! Highly recommend Deanna and will hire her again and again if she agrees!
Paige was great with my furry kids. She took care of two cats and two Alaskan Malamutes while traveling, and all went smoothly. She also came before for a meet-and-greet, which facilitated the walkthrough and understanding of the request to keep the furry ones comfortable. Highly recommend Paige's services.
Ashely was amazing! She was wonderful with our fur babies and made sure they were loved and cared for while we were away. She followed all of the directions we left in our note, sent lots of pictures of our fur babies, and went above and beyond to walk/care for our pets. I would highly recommend Ashely and will absolutely rebook with her in the future.
Stacy did great with my four pups. She was reliable and kept my dogs happy while I was gone. One of my dogs is super anxious and Stacy went out of her way to try and build trust with him and work with him where he was at. I would highly recommend Stacy and will definitely be using her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Granite Bay
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Granite Bay on Rover is $98.79 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,573 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Granite Bay. 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 Granite Bay 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 Granite Bay 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 Granite Bay 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
