“Clara house sat and watch our labradoodle for 5 days and did a fantastic job! Walter was happy and healthy when we arrived home and the house was in excellent condition. Several of our dog-loving neighbors got to know Clara and really liked them. We highly recommend Clara and have absolutely no reservations in hiring them again! :-)”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Champ was so well cared for while we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. He was fed on schedule, let out regularly, and clearly received lots of love and attention. We really appreciated the updates and knowing he was in such good hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and it’s obvious he was treated like family. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our boy!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was in middle school and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and giving lots of attention to pets. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a full-time student at USC, so I typically only have about two in-person classes each day. Outside of school and my social life, I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pet the care, attention, and love they deserve! I live in a pet-free apartment, so I’m unable to have pets stay overnight at my home. However, I’m happy to care for pets in their own home and can follow any safety instructions or routines you provide.

“We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Deborah! We’ve used her three times now, and we are so incredibly thankful we found her. Our dog, Leo, absolutely adores her, which gives us so much peace of mind when we’re away. She goes above and beyond every single time, and somehow we always come home to a house even cleaner than we left it! What really speaks to the kind of person Deborah is happened during our most recent trip. When she realized we were away celebrating our son’s birthday, she went out of her way to get him a birthday gift “from Leo.” It was such an incredibly thoughtful gesture and meant so much to our family! She is fantastic with communication, sends pictures and updates throughout her stay, and genuinely treats Leo and our home like her own. Finding someone you can trust with both your home and your fur baby is priceless, and Deborah is truly one of a kind. We feel so lucky to have found her and cannot recommend her enough! ❤️”

About: I like to pay attention to the emotional state of the pets I’m looking after. Their comfort level is important to me. Love and science based dog training is also Huge for me and I don’t punish dogs! I work full-time but I’m almost always available on the weekends and on holidays! I will be free during the summer to work on the weekdays. I live in an apartment with my teenage children and my dog, Milo. The place is puppy-proofed as needed and he is house-trained + crate-trained! As for my clients, I like to have a little care plan that includes emergency information or instructions on how to care for the dog im watching.I love being affectionate with my furry friends but I also know to respect their boundaries.

About: Update: I will not be available Nov 9-13 and Nov 19-29. This has happened to me and it is so very unfortunate I have to say this...If you have a senior dog, please let me know of any changes to their health!!!!! If you believe your pup is nearing end of life, PLEASE do not ask me to keep your dog. It is very heartbreaking and your pet wants YOU and needs YOU during his or her last days because YOU are their entire world. I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life and have always loved loving on them. I'm a mom of two pups and I pet sit for friends and family regularly so I have plenty of references to go around! I have a very flexible schedule so you can trust that I will be able to make taking care of your pet the highest priority every single time! Taking care of your pet is a privilege. I know just how precious they are to us and treat them all as if they were my own. With love, and patience!

About: I’ve had dogs all my life taken care of then. I currently have 2 year old pug and we go to the dog park almost every day. Milo, my current dog is the most spoiled dog. I know I cook his food so he can be nice and healthy and his coat can be nice and shiny and soft And take the time out to make sure that he gets all his Zumiez out So I currently work for T-Mobile typically work around seven hours a day, but I still have a Lotta free time before and after depending on the day. I still manage to take my little Pug on numerous, walks into the dog park every day, and typically free on the weekends all day. Honestly, I love dogs so I will treat your dog like It’s my own, I do require all animals have updated shots and car seat belts as Milo and I often go on car rides and to the dog park… also if your dog is not neutered or spayed that is fine but please inform me prior so I can book accordingly, I do have pee pads for dogs who aren’t potty trained although most young puppies are easy to tech when a older dog is present.

Leanissa is hands down the best dog sitter! She stayed at my home for 2 weeks to take care of Kingston and did an incredible job. She followed all care instructions, treated my home with immense respect, and went above and beyond to keep everything clean. She is now my top choice for pet sitting, and I can't wait to book her again! Kingston and I are so grateful for her!!

Alexis did great! My first time leaving my babies with a sitter who I wasn’t familiar with so I was a little nervous but she followed all instructions to a T and was overall kind and very respectful. Looking forward to booking with Alexis in the future❤️

FAQs for House Sitting - Haskell Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 599 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Haskell Heights. 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 Haskell Heights 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 Haskell Heights 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 Haskell Heights 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.

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

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
