“Wow! I am beyond impressed with the care my two fur babies received from Collin! They were loved on , got treats and went on walks nearly every day. I loved the daily updates like photos and videos to know my pups were doing well. He even went above and beyond his job description when I left an important document at home he was quick to help get the information to me! I will be using his service in the future! Thank you again!”

“My dog loves visits with Lez D. I know she is in excellent and kind hands. Lez D goes on walks, gives cuddles and plays with my pup. It eases my mind when I have to go out of town. Thank you so much.”
About: I grew up with beloved household pets, and house sitting and dog walking jobs throughout my schooling. I have done this for cats and dogs alike of all kinds. I'm excited to continue the journey now through this platform and I hope I can be of help to many more in need. As a teacher, I have summers off. There is more time for house and pet sitting during my summers. The rest of the year I would work around my school calendar. I can followed detailed instructions, times for medications, walks, check ins, and feeding. If pet needs to be in a crate, I can proceed with owner preferences.
“Carrington is simply put an amazing dog sitter. You can feel it from the moment you meet her that this isn’t just a job to her it’s her passion. My dogs fell in love with her from our meet & greets to now getting to spend a full day of fun & play. I was dreading losing a day with my pups due to work but I can honestly say it was a blessing in disguise. Obi & Koda are ready to wind down after a long day of fun with their new best friend. She kept me informed from beginning to end, no anxiety or feeling of dread I know they were both happy all day long with the most adorable pictures as proof. Thank you so much Carrington!”
“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!”

“Reagan is seriously amazing. She went above and beyond watching our dogs and made us feel relaxed on vacation knowing that they were being loved. Kept us updated the entire trip, and upon return the dogs and house looked great. She house sat for us for two weeks and took care of two dogs so she can handle both dog and house sitting. I would recommended her to anyone and she will be our go to dog sitter forever.”
“You can tell Benjamin really care about your fur babies. One of our cats can be a little bit difficult to deal with when it comes to eating his food but Benjamin went out of his way to accommodate his needs. Highly recommended!”
“I couldn’t be happier with my dog sitter! She was incredibly responsive from the start, always quick to reply and keep me updated while I was away. What stood out most was her flexibility—she easily adjusted to my dog’s routine and any last-minute changes without hesitation. Above all, her kindness and genuine care for my pup truly gave me peace of mind. It’s clear she treats every dog like her own, and I feel lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Johnna did a fantastic job with my 2 dogs, kept me updated and sending proof of life photos…which I appreciated!! She showed such respect for my home as well. Would highly recommend her and for sure will be using her again in the future. 🙏”

“We are so grateful to have found Erika! She is amazing with our dogs. She is very responsive and a great communicator. We could go on our trip feeling at ease knowing our dogs and house were in really good hands. It was a great experience from start to finish. Thank you Erika!”
“A week before our trip our family member cancelled watching our 3 dogs and home. We panicked! I remembered seeing Jennifer’s dog sitting ad on Facebook. I downloaded Rover on my phone and set up my account. I looked all through Rover till I found her. She immediately contacted me back and we set up a meet and greet to see how she was around the dogs. She was great, very sweet and caring with our pups! We hired her through Rover which was a very easy process. She sent updates with pictures throughout the weekend. They even all ate their dinners for her which is a challenge for my Yorkie and Havanese. I greatly appreciated the updates and pictures throughout the trip. I would highly recommend Jenifer for the love and care of your pets while you’re away. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and awesome communication.”
“We were SO impressed and grateful to Alexa for housesitting our energetic cocker spaniel, Luna for over a week while we were out of town. Alexa struck the perfect balance of communication - checking in to show how things were going well, but also allowing us to enjoy our time away. She was very calm, professional, and warm. Our dog is a bit anxious and has frequent accidents when meeting new people, but we could tell she immediately was comfortable with Alexa. We came home to a perfectly clean house, fed fish and a happy dog! She followed our care instructions to a T. All in all we hope to use Alexa again for her services and would recommend her wholeheartedly.”

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 $62.16 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 2,549 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.

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.
