About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, I’ve loved learning how each dog is different and what kind of care they need. I care for my own dog and family friends dogs as well. I am currently unemployed, while doing online schooling full time, I only have zoom meetings Monday and Wednesday from 1:30-2:50 but I am available anytime! I make sure to follow all the owner’s instructions carefully, provide fresh water and food on time, give lots of attention and play, and keep their home clean and safe for the pets. I also watch for any signs of discomfort or health issues and make sure the pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away.
“Another great pet sitting experience with Lauren! Luna and Juice (my dog and cat) are always relaxed, calm and happy after Lauren has spent time with them! She's super responsive, sends updates and pictures, and takes care of everything around my house...and always leaves it very clean! Lauren also seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with my furry friends, and for that I am very grateful! I always feel 100% comfortable and confident when Lauren is my pet and house sitter! Thank you, Lauren!”
About: I have had pets most of my life since I was a small child. I have a deep bond with animals and love getting to know their individual personalities and having a great time playing together. I am currently working part time on my own schedule so I have a great deal flexibility to come play with your pets and provide them with my undivided attention! I provide care specifically based on each individual client’s requests and unique needs. Please let me know your preferences, needs and concerns. Thank you!
“Hayley took care of our dog at our home recently for an extended period. She provided excellent communication daily, including sending us pictures of Benji. She walked him, gave him his daily meds, and smothered him with love and attention. This was her second stay with Benji and we know he got excellent care. In addition to paying attention to Benji’s needs, she also took excellent care of our house and followed all instructions thoroughly. Our home was spotless when we returned, and she went the extra mile by washing sheets and towels. We highly recommend Haley for pet/home sitting!”
About: Hi future fur clients. I have a strong caring & loving passion for animals. Their safety and well-being is always my goal. If your fur child needs a walk , let's go , need them to get their energy out? I can help. I have strollers , dog carriers and always check my surroundings. Going on vacation and cant take babies? I will spoil them until you return. I have been rescuing animals since I was little and to this day continue to do so when I can. I had a dog that had seizures, so I am very aware of what to look for and what to do. I will send updates so you know your fur child is relaxed , spoiled and loved. I am a stay at home pet mom. I am available to give them all the love , care & attention they need while your away at work or they need an extra walk. Maybe you want to leave town for the day? Im here to help with your fur child. I have always made sure I am attentive to my surroundings and what the fur babies may pickup off the floor. I carry extra leashes just in case we need them. My fur babies have 3 dog beds but are always allowed on my bed and sofa. They have a ball pit full of toys , and when I need to leave for a moment babygates and dog fence it is.
“Dorothy was great with our rambunctious puppy! She followed safety precautions due to COVID. We got the cutest pictures throughout the day of Cora. Dorothy was respectful and took great care of Cora and our house. I would definitely recommend Dorothy!”
“Diego was fantastic with our Beagle boys, Royce and Baxter. Diego went above and beyond ensuring that the boys were cared for and keeping us informed daily. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and cats for the weekend. They were well cared for and well loved, as her adorable pictures showed. She was extremely trustworthy, a great communicator and went above and beyond caring for the animals and our house. We are so lucky to have found her and can’t wait to have her come again!”
“Rusty took care of two our elderly ladies with love and skill. She seems to be unflappable in dealing with mini crises. We hope that giving her a glowing review won't mean she's unavailable the next time we need her!”
“Karen watched our fur family for a week and we found her to be responsible, caring, engaged, conscientious and trustworthy, Karen has a true love of animals, and she connected with our pets right away. Animals were well taken care of, their regular schedule maintained, the house was tidy, and all plants watered and in healthy condition. We would love to have her stay with our furkids again. :) A great experience”
“When you first meet certain people, you know they are real and up front with you, such that you will have no worries leaving your pets and home in their care. Brianna is such a person. She was just like a gift coming to the front door to meet us and our pets. Her care and concern is the very best. We received updates and pictures of our cats with text messages about their activities. Three of our cats get meds and one needs a little bit of special attention. Brianna was on top of it all. We recommend her to anyone booking for pet care they can count on.”
“Chris ( Chappy) is amazing. We have two giant (120 and 150 lbs), complicated dogs—one of whom can be aggressive. Plus seizures. This is not an easy situation and we have rejected most sitters. Chappy had the right experience and feel to handle them both. He is also extremely conscientious. He is an experienced dog handler and we are relieved to have found him.”
“All praises from us. Francesco is amazing at taking care of our girl, communication and gets the best photos Betty. Goes above and beyond and is all around the most trusted sitter we've ever had. If you have a chance to book his services, take it!”
“Cathleen is a godsend! I have 6 dogs all with their own needs and ranging from 10lbs to 100lbs. While away on my trip I felt completely relaxed with Cathleen in my home taking care of all my pups. She took pics, played with them, and even did some minor grooming. If she was unsure about something she always asked questions and went above and beyond when completing tasks. I HIGHLY recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter and I will definitely be hiring her again for my future trips!”
“So pleased with my first experience having Lila dog sit our one-year-old Australian Shepard for 2 days in our home. She is very organized, asked good questions to taylor her care, offered good training tips and was successful in getting her to "settle". Most important of all, she formed a lasting bond with her as evidenced by Echo wanting to go into the guest room for several days in a row to look for her, sniff where her belongings were layed, and making me open the closet doors to make sure she wasn't in there! I look forward to having Lila care for our pup again.”
“Laura took wonderful care of our pups and house while we were away for 1.5 weeks. She was very communicative (but not overboard) and went above and beyond with keeping our house in good shape. We would book her again!”
“My husband and I loved Michaela taking care of our two corgis. She has dog magic that's for sure! We had just moved from out state, and our dogs were stressed of course from all the months of packing and travel. Our older dog is pretty much a couch potato not wanting much activilty at all. The reason I say Michaela has dog magic is because when the dogs met her, they immediately began their wonderful playful dog dance with each other around the house. She sent us videos each day of the dogs and it was delightful to see our older dog so inspired to go out and have some good fun he hasn't felt like in a long time. We love Michaela, our dogs love Michaela! This was our first time having a pet sitter, and she made it wonderful experience for us and the dogs.”
About: I’ve spent several years caring for pets as part of my work as a nanny and personal assistant, so I’m very used to routines, communication, and handling animals with patience. I’ve cared for high-energy breeds like German Shepherds and Dobermans, as well as small dogs, seniors, and puppies. What sets me apart is that I’m calm, dependable, and observant, I notice changes in behavior, appetite, or energy right away. I’m comfortable with crate routines, structured walks, feeding schedules, basic commands, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. I’ve also handled senior-dog needs like slow walks, medication reminders, and gentle mobility support. When I house-sit, I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions carefully, and send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident your pup is happy and safe. Whether your dog needs long walks, quiet company, playtime, or extra patience, I adapt to each pet’s personality to help them feel secure while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school remotely, which means my schedule is very flexible and I’m home the majority of the day. When I’m house-sitting, your dog gets consistent company, supervision, and attention, I’m not someone who will be in and out all day. If I ever need to step out for a quick errand or class requirement, I always communicate ahead of time. I believe in being respectful of your home and completely transparent about my schedule, so you’ll always know what to expect. Because my program is online, I’m able to structure my study time around your pet’s needs: walks, playtime, feeding, medication, and potty breaks. This setup lets me provide calm, consistent care while keeping your dog’s routine as stable and stress-free as possible. When I care for pets in your home, I keep everything calm, safe, and consistent. I follow your dog’s routine exactly: feeding schedule, walk times, crate rules, and any house guidelines you prefer. I’m especially careful with doors, gates, and outdoor time, and I handle strong or high-energy dogs confidently. I keep your home tidy, pick up after pets right away, and treat your space with respect. Throughout the stay, I send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to make your dog feel secure in their familiar environment and give you complete peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hidden Valley Lake
Yessenia is fabulous. She took exceptional care of my dog and cat. My dog is a rambunctious Lab, but she really knew how to work with him. My cat needs meds, and she accomplished that as well. Moreover, she sent pictures of them daily, which was so appreciated. When I saw my cat relaxing while laying tummy up, I knew Yessenia had won her complete trust. In addition, she left the house clean and tidy. I will always use Yessenia to care for my kids.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hidden Valley Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hidden Valley Lake on Rover is $51.31 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 540 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hidden Valley Lake. 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 Hidden Valley Lake 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 Hidden Valley Lake 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 Hidden Valley Lake 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hidden Valley Lake. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
