“We highly recommend Melinda! We felt completely comfortable leaving Melinda in charge and we were not disappointed. Melinda is truly a wonderful pet/house sitter. So happy we found her!”
“This was our first time using Rover and were a little apprehensive about a stranger coming to our house, but Hayley met with us before she came to pet sit. We felt comfortable after meeting with her. We knew our dog Lucky would be in good hands! Hayley stayed at our house for 2 nights and communicated regularly with us. We are very happy with Hayley and will use her again in the future!”
“Ebonnie was great with our two pups! They are a bit rambunctious and she did well with them. She kept in touch while we were away and updated us when we asked. She is respectful and sweet. I already have her booked for a trip in September!”
“Kaylah was awesome with both our cat and dog. She was very attentative and had much concern about our cat not eating the first 24 hours. But, the situation resolved with Kaylah’s attempts to make the cat comfortable with her. 😃 She is the first to follow feeding instructions and found our home very clean. She is highly recommended that I’ve already booked her for our next trip.”
“I hired Kaylee to sit at my home with my Belgian Malinois with separation anxiety. I appreciate her quick responses thru the Rover App, and her willingness to arrive for an early morning appointment. We will definitely call Kaylee again in the near future.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 18. Rescued an older husky, a year later I took in 2 more that people could no longer take care of. After they passed away I helped friends and family with pet sitting. As I was helping a family locate a new home for a yellow lab I took him in and fell in love with him. He rekindled my love for a companion dog. Trained him and was well around other dogs and cats. I’m an outdoorsy person and would go camping and hiking with him. As he got older we decided to let him have an offspring and now we have his son. I take my puppy before work and after work on a walk Saturday is a free day and able to take my dogs out to socialize. Sunday I leave with my dog to church and then comeback home for a family day. While I go to work during the week . My Wife is a stay at home mom who is with the animals while I’m away. I have a fenced backyard with the plenty of room to run. I also a a fur baby with his full shots. We usually give them fruits and veggies for snacks and have kongs toys to keep them entertained. All pets are welcomed in the house and will be given access every hours to use restroom outside as needed. Inside the house the temperature is regulated for comfort. Pets also have access to crates, dog beds and blankets and sofa . We do make treats for our pets and will ask owner before ever giving anything to their dogs.
“Cassidy is great. A true animal lover, and this was notable within the first few minutes. You wouldn’t want someone who is not. Very communicative and sent daily pictures of my fur babies. She’s highly recommended.”
“Lili was wonderful with our boys, Ozzy & Luke. She communicated with us throughout the stay. She sent updates and photos of our pups, which we really enjoyed. She treated the pups and our home with lots of respect. We’re looking forward to her spending more time with our pups in the future. Lili is great, your fur babies will warm up to her immediately. 💛”
“Louie was great. He watched our two Great Dane puppies, provided updates, and let us know how they were getting on. It was great knowing we didn’t have to worry about our girls while we were gone for the night. Would highly recommend!”
“Did a great job with my fur babies. She sent me pics and updates of them. My dogs loved her and I would definitely rebook her for the next time I have a trip away. She did a great job!!”
“This was our first time using an in-home dog sitter after losing our previous dog unexpectedly at a boarding facility, so we were understandably very hesitant. From the moment we met Vickie, she immediately put us at ease and gave us the confidence to leave our new pup at home while we were away. Vickie went above and beyond by visiting a few times before our trip to help our pup feel comfortable with her in our home. While we were gone, she kept us updated with daily photos, which meant so much to us, and she even took the time to water our garden. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a house in perfect condition. We’re so grateful for the care and attention Vickie provided and would absolutely love to work with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hemet
Debbie was an amazing care giver for King. She is kind and gentle, and showed a genuine love for King. Debbie was very conscious and intentional with everything she did with and for King. He was on eye drops for an infection and she was very consistent in keeping his schedule. I was very pleased with the level of care she provided, and I appreciate the way she respected my home. She was clean and everything was in place when I returned. Will definitely use her again!
Pet sitter Nova is caring & attentive. He has pet sat twice for me. Arrives on time & leaves at scheduled time. He’s flexible, knowledgeable & responsible. He even vacuumed & emptied the trash. Nice. Three dogs shed a lot. I can relax knowing he’s taking care of my dogs/family. He follows instructions. Stays in touch, sends me updates & photos. I definitely recommend him. Thank you Nova!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hemet on Rover is $44.4 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 1,640 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hemet. 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 Hemet 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 Hemet 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 Hemet 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.
