“Deanna was wonderful!!! Couldn’t recommend her enough. We left for a week and when we got home our dogs were happy as can be, that tells me everything I need to know :) we were sent lots of pictures and they seemed to really enjoy themselves. Would definitely book with her again!!”
About: I dog sit and walk all the time and I love dogs! I also house sit and water plants and feed goldfish! I’ll love to play with your pets! I just graduated from granite bay high school and I have a dog of my own, he’s an english pointer and is super energetic so i’m used to having to wear out dogs! I’m good at getting a dog to listen to me and I can also crate your dog if needed! Just show me the commands and your dogs will be in good hands!
“Sam watched our dog while we were gone and did an incredible job. Great with communication and we had peace of mind that our puppy was in good hands. When we got home everything was perfect. Thank you, Sam!”
“Wow!!! Anastassia was amazing!!! She went above and beyond. The basic things were there, sticking to schedule, sending pictures and keeping me updated. But so much more than that! My pup had to take some medicine and she made sure he got what he needed! She also ended up taking out the trash, cleaning and even organized my fridge (there were very few things in there but she still organized it all). I cannot speak highly enough. I will be booking her again next time I need someone to stay with my pup. Highly recommend. 10/10!”
“Ben took excellent care of my spicy kitten who wanted nothing to do with him. He is a soft spoken gentleman who eventually got her to trust him enough to play with him, even though there were soft hisses of protest when he tried to pet her, she didn’t run away. So if she was truly upset she would have been gone. I’ll have him back for sure to keep an eye on her and her separation anxiety at bay.”
About: I’ve had many animals as part of my family, raising them from infancy and all the way through the life cycle. My home has always had cats and dogs, with the occasional other animal added to the mix. I have been professionally pet-sitting for the last few years now and have cared for hundreds of pets. I treat your home and animals as though they were my own, with all of my respect and love. I’m working on pet first aid and CPR certification, am a member of Pet Sitters International, and am always learning more about cat behavior and dog training. Pet sitting is my favorite job ever! It’s become my full-time passion to find my niche and do this as a career. It sure beats my old desk job! I am also my daughter’s chauffeur. I am a night owl at heart and have no problem with late-night visits, but can also do visits before 8am when necessary. I start out meeting you and your animal(s). You show me what is most important to you and them, and I follow your instructions while also providing much-needed attention and affection to your loved ones while you are away.
“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.”
“Lacee was everything we were looking for in a house sitter and a dog sitter. She is reliable, responsible, and a proactive communicator. She took great care of our 3 active dogs and kept us informed. I highly recommend her and will use her services again.”
“Ronni is the best!! She took care of not only our two cats but also our anxious pup and he loved her! He warmed up super quick and was very comfortable. Ronni is great and we will continue to ask her back whenever we are planning a trip!”
“My dog took an instant liking to Mira. Mira looked after our dog at our home and we felt completely at ease with her. Not only is she a lovely person, but she also made sure our dog was well looked after in every way. I was really pleased to receive regular photos from her so I could see how well our dog was doing. Ten out of ten”
“What a wonderful experience. You were the perfect answer to taking care of our dog and cat! I will only be having you take care of them from now on!! I am so grateful to have found you through this ap! I only wish I would have found you years ago! THANK YOU”
“Meredith took great care of our home and our dogs. She took our dogs on multiple walks, and we hear there were lots of snuggles in between! We had a relaxed time away from home because we knew Meredith had us covered! Thank you, Meredith!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with five years of hands-on pet-care experience and four cats of my own. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, cleaning litter boxes, and following each pet’s normal routine. I can also trim cats’ nails and brush both cats’ and dogs’ teeth. I’m patient with nervous animals and understand that every pet needs time to feel safe and comfortable with someone new. I also volunteer with the SPCA, which has given me even more experience around animals with different personalities and needs. Pet care fits very well into my weekly schedule. I’m available throughout the day on Sundays and Mondays, as well as Friday and Saturday evenings. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship while following your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, grooming, and household routines. I keep doors and gates secure, maintain clean food and water bowls, clean litter boxes thoroughly, and give each pet the level of attention or personal space they prefer. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, dogs, cats, small pets and I’m known for being calm, patient, and detail-oriented. I specialize in in-home care so your pet stays relaxed in their familiar space. I’m comfortable with seniors, puppies, and anxious or shy pets, and I follow your routines exactly (feeding, meds, potty schedule, exercise). My schedule allows me plenty of time for quality pet care! I’m available most mornings and evenings. I do work part time and have my kids week on week off so between work and kids I make time for pet walks and pet care when I have my kids. When I don't have my kids, I have more available hours and can-do house sitting locally in the placer county area. I take caring for pets in their own home very seriously and always treat your space with respect. I follow your routines exactly ~ meals, walks, meds, and bedtime ~ so your pets feel calm and secure while you’re away. I keep everything tidy, lock up carefully, and provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your home and pets are safe and well cared for. My goal is to make your time away completely worry-free.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats before for friends and family, I also take care of my own! They’re my whole world! Your fur babies are my top priority I currently work at Sutter Health 4-5 days a week, I am able to care for your fur babies before & after work. I’m almost always available weekends 24/7! I will always make sure there are no windows / doors open or unlocked so your pets cannot get out. Along with making sure no food is accessible for them to get into easily.
About: I have taken care of pets for over 20 years including feeding, bathing, providing injections, walking, and loving on all pets in my care! :) I work from home and have plenty of time and care to provide to your fur babies. We have a large yard for playing and running around as well as a fenced in pool if your pets enjoy swimming! I have a fenced yard, have two dogs and 3 children (ages 2, 6, and 9) that love animals! We live in a friendly neighborhood with trails and parks nearby for walks.
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! Currently, I am working part-time and I am a college student. However, my shifts are never longer than 4 hours. My services are available all week! 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!

Deanna was wonderful!!! Couldn’t recommend her enough. We left for a week and when we got home our dogs were happy as can be, that tells me everything I need to know :) we were sent lots of pictures and they seemed to really enjoy themselves. Would definitely book with her again!!
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.

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.
