“Ysabel was great with Django and Walter! She sent us daily updates, photos and comments about their day. When we returned, the house was picked up, the kitchen was clean and the dogs were happy. We will definitely use Ysabel again and recommend her highly.”
“If there were 10 stars to give, Mayumi would get all. She was fabulous! She bathed my baby regularly, took her for walks, sent me photos and videos, and when I came home, my home was as I left it and Saji was in happy spirits, well-fed and healthy. I will definitely keep Mayumi as my prime contact for when I need someone to care for Saji. I highly recommend her!”
“We felt comfortable immediately with Claudia staying at our home and watching our pups. She seemed to take such incredible care of them, that we felt safe to enjoy our trip. She sent regular pics and updates and the pups seemed so happy. Our dogs also needed medication and she had no problem administering it. She also took great care of our home and cleaned up. We are so glad we found Claudia and can't wait to book her again!”
About: I have always lived in a house with dogs. I have experience in administering medication to dogs anywhere from birth to the senior years. I have experience leash training as well as house training. I currently work a part-time serving job with very flexible hours. I have reliable transportation and can take same day appointments! I am able to check in as many times as needed as well as stay overnight, I do live in a house with a lot of animals so I don’t believe it would be a good idea to take other pets into my home but, I can guarantee to treat your pets and home as if they are my own when in my care. As a teenager I often did house/child/pet care for people in my community. I understand that I am a guest in your space and I can promise to act with respect, kindness, and integrity as I care for what is yours.
About: Hello! My name is Fidencio, (my family calls me John, and you can too). I am 32 years old and have a long history of caring for dogs in my family. In 2005, my Father rescued a puppy from war torn Iraq. He fell in love with Target, our Iraqi dog, while he was deployed there. I remember my dad calling my mom, begging her to please find a way to get Target home, to California, over 7000 miles away. We went to work as a family finding any possible way to get our small puppy back home. Long story short, because we love animals, we got Target shipped to LAX. Target was what we considered an animal refugee. I remember going on the drive to LAX as a 5th grader to go pick up Target, when I first saw him he was scared, being shipped across the globe and being separated from his owner on the journey. But as soon as we got in the car we broke the crate open, we instantly all fell in love. Dedication to protecting a caring for animals is something that runs deep for me. And opening up our home to do that for others is an honor. I’ve attached some photos of Target, our 1st family dog. Looking at these older photos is such a trip! Blast from the past if you will. My Dad is now retired from the USMC and has a service dog jack, who is pictured above. He loves to play with other dogs and is very friendly. Hope you meet you and your pet soon! I am home full time and will always be there for you and your pet! Can be contacted 24/7 and checkup anytime. I’m just a call away. I care for other pets the same I would care for my own. With love, patience, and care. These things come naturally as an animal lover!
“Karaleah took care of our dogs on Thursday and Friday while we were busy with wedding events, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was so loving, sweet, and gentle with both of them. Her calm and kind presence made such a difference, especially during a hectic time. She was patient, attentive, and made sure our pups were happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dogs like her own!”
“Renee was absolutely terrific. She gave us peace of mind and the fur babies were happy and my home well cared for. She really cares, pays attention to detail and goes above and beyond.”
About: I will tailor the love and care for your pet based on his or her behavior and personality. I have both a senior dog and a pup, so there’s a huge range of personalities in between both. My senior dog requires at least an hour inside then wants his own time in the yard as for the pup he requires a lot of exercise and then nap time in the couch. Let me know your fur baby ‘s personality and I’ll be sure to accommodate. At my home you have the option to be completely outside or inside, we have cement and grass and lots of fruit trees for them to smell and explore. I would prefer for your dog to be potty trained in advanced if he or she requires to be inside.
About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.
“Angela again provided outstanding care to our elderly dog. She left our home in the exact condition she found it, even washed the bathmat. When our return flight was late she even went the extra mile to change her plans and stay later than the original agreement.”
About: With over five years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals, I provide attentive, loving, and reliable pet care, ensuring your pets feel at home. Currently on break from college, I have a flexible schedule and am available any day of the week after 10 am. This allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for your pets, ensuring they receive the best possible care and company. I prioritize safety and trust when caring for pets in my clients' homes. I follow all provided instructions meticulously, ensuring that pets are comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I keep a clean and organized space, promptly clean up after pets, and make sure they have fresh water and food. I also engage them in regular exercise and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you’re away.
“Ragon was everything I thought she would be and more! I could tell from the start that I was leaving my fur baby in the right hands. I would highly recommend her and will use her again if the opportunity arises before we move.”
About: i started doing dog sitting when i was in the fourth grade for some family friends. i take long walks, very organized with households and pet cleanliness. i can take care of pets with strict schedules, medicine and diets as well! IM YOUR GIRL 👉😜 i can pet sit almost any day of the week, i'm an online student and this job fits great into my lifestyle. i am active and am really looking forward to exploring more of the city with some company of a furry friend i take long walks, i like to hike and go to the dog park or beach. At my family home, the dogs get fed twice a day and get walked 3 times a day for about 30 minutes unless we do a longer hike or outing. this is also done with client's pets and of course can fluctuate upon request
“Megan is a gem! She took great care of our dog, Blu, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She was a great communicator, kept our home clean, exactly as we left it, walked Blu every day, and sent us photos that always made us smile. We also appreciated that she took the time to do a meet-n-greet before our trip. Megan is kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. We feel so lucky to have found her and look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I’m an animal lover who has been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up around all kinds of animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals, so I’m comfortable with just about any animal you consider family! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime, your cat prefers some quiet company, or your farm animals need feeding and care while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they’re used to. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m also happy to follow specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel at home. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can trust to care for them! My schedule is very flexible! I recently got my real estate license and currently work very part-time through a staffing agency when they need someone in the sales gallery. I’m able to choose which days I work, so I can easily work around pet and house-sitting schedules. I’m also up pretty early every morning and take my own dog to the park or on a long walk for at least an hour, so I’m very used to having an active morning routine with dogs. I’m happy to give your pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime and cuddles throughout the day, along with another walk or outing in the evening. I can be flexible depending on what your pets are used to and need! I want you and your pets to feel completely comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes and always treat them like I would my own. I’m clean, responsible, and mindful about keeping doors, gates, and anything else secure, especially with animals that may be nervous or prone to getting out. I also understand that every animal is different, especially rescues, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine, boundaries, or special instructions you have. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re gone, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
“Danielle is an amazing sitter, she stayed with our dog all day and took care of him, fed him walked him. She is responsible, ontime, trustworthy and very professional. Will recommend her 100%”
“Chloe was friendly, punctual, and happy to keep an eye on our energetic boy while we went out to dinner with my parents. Would absolutely have her house sit again for us in the future!”
“Katherine was terrific housesitting for our three pets (Mini-Australian shepherd, older ragdoll cat, and highland lynx kitten) in Newport Beach! The older two pets are very anxious with strangers, but Katherine was very patient and managed to win their trust. She sent us many photos and updates during her stay, and we felt very secure about leaving the "kids" in her care. Katherine also looked after the house and left it exactly as it was; you would never know she had been there. I am happy to recommend Katherine and would gladly hire her again!”

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 Holcomb Village 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 Holcomb Village 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 Holcomb Village 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 Holcomb Village. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
