“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.”
“Stacy was so professional and such a good communicator. She would adapt to things I requested while I was away and always made sure she was checking on Dottie and making sure she was safe as an old dog. She stuck to a pretty strict schedule for feeding, medication and walks, but was very flexible and open to some changes during the heatwave. I would definitely book her again.”
“Erin did a wonderful job caring for our Goldendoodle and Rat Terrier. She arrived on time for our meet and greet, took the time to go over everything our dogs needed, and was knowledgeable and respectful throughout. We came home to two very happy dogs and would happily recommend her!”
“Miley did a wonderful job watching my 8 year old corgi mix, Loki, overnight. He’s usually very anxious, but warmed up quickly to Miley. I came home to a happy pups! Miley was also responsive and provided updates letting me know how things are going.”

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.”

Thank you so much Deanna for your excellent care of our 4-legged fur babies over the 3 days I was out of town. I love that can leave them with someone I trust, who takes such great care of them 🙏🏾 I am deeply grateful, and look forward to you taking care of them again in November!
Stacy is an amazing dog sitter! She was on time, always sent great pics, took Bailey on daily walks and even did a few household things for me like watering my plants and taking in garbage cans. I was incredibly impressed with her and felt like Bailey absolutely loved her! I will definitely use her again! -Terri
Jae recently watched my spoiled and rambunctious pups. It was my first time partnering with a pet sitter and although I was nervous and hesitant, Jae went out of her way to ease my worries. She sent me several pictures while I was away, and she was very communicative and responsive. The pups loved her and were healthy and happy upon my return. Additionally, my house was clean and well taken care of. I couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely continue to book her services in the future. Thank you Jae!
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.

The average cost of House Sitting in Granite Bay is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $122 per night. On Rover, 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.

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 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.

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.
