About: 10 years dog owner and lifetime cat owner. Very patient and caring with animals. Good at following instructions if special care is needed. Not scared of large dogs. I work part time from home so my schedule is pretty flexible when it comes to pet sitting walks or what ever the job requires. I have two large dogs Rottweiler and Pitt Rottweiler mix and three cats. Dogs are cat friendly. Large yard and crate is available upon request if needed.
“Polly was absolutely fantastic. She sent us photos and notes everyday which really helped our anxiety leaving him. When we came home we new right away that Chester loved her. She played with him, gave him his medicine, and even bought him a few toys. Exceptional care. This is the first time we used Rover and wish I had found out about it before! We hate leaving him behind when we travel, but knowing that we now have Polly to rely on, it makes is so much better. My only concern is now everyone will want to book her and then she is not available for us. We could not have asked for better care for our gentle giant.”

About: Hi there! My Theo passed away last summer, so I’m using Rover as a way to get some time with pets again (as well as getting in steps). I can easily help throughout all hours of the workday and over the weekend! ❤️ thank u for trusting me and letting me get in some fur baby love❤️ I do also have experience with elderly dogs (seizures, blind, deaf, falling, comfort, etc), as well as raised my own Pom from when he was a puppy. I work from home so I can easily help throughout all hours of the day, over the weekend, or any evening! Just let me know, ❤️ thank u so much I have experience as a dog owner as well as countless weekends cat-sitting! Going for walks, playing, feeding, check-ups. Anything you’d like done and can provide photos and feedback consistently!
About: Since birth we have had a dog in the house, first a German Shepherd, then Chocolate Lab, and now a Rottweiler mix. My sister has two rowdy Shepherds of her own that I frequently take care of. Together, my mom and I take care of six sweet girl cats and our Rotty mix. I was a manager of a pet store for a short time and gained vast knowledge on pet care, health, and nutrition. Currently working a part time job but will make time for you and your pets every need! Wednesdays are the only days not open due to a family commitment. I know how hard it can be to trust a stranger with your loved one and I hope I can provide some ease of mind knowing that I will treat yours as my own wholly. I am very flexible and open-minded, especially when it comes to anxious pets.

“Elizabeth is top-notch. I couldn’t have dreamed up a better sitter. She won over my shy Milo. She was there when she said she’d be there. She sent me photos and/or videos every day. She genuinely loves cats. She is fun to work with. Choose Elizabeth.”

About: Hello I am Emily! I am a great dog-walker, tug a war player and a responsible dog lover! My schedule is very flexible. I live just a block away from a big park. I have had big labradors all my life but I don’t discriminate! I love small and massive dogs alike. When I was younger I started a dog biscuit business and would cater dog parties. I hope you allow me the chance to get to babysit your 4 legged best friend! I am a small business owner and can typically step out of my store whenever your pup needs me. My shop is right downtown st. Joesph Working in clients home is best as my dog is a little to rambunctious at times. I’ve found it to be most comfortable for your pet to be in there own home with all treats, toys and normal comforts.
About: I’ve been working with animals most of my life. I started dog sitting when I was 13 years old. Then I continued my love for animals by working as a kennel worker at a vet clinic, I then went to schooling to become a dog groomer, I did that for 5 years and then decided I wanted to do more and began school to get my vet tech degree, I currently am in school and work as a vet assistant at a clinic in south haven. I have a German shepherd currently. I currently work full time during the day but have a 2 hour lunch in the afternoon and have weekends off. I have plenty of time to care for your pups on my free time. I follow your instructions to a tee, I have no issue with whatever demands you have for the care of your family member, I prefer walking on leashes and I also prefer a meet and greet before agreeing to sitting.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hollywood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 236 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hollywood. 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 Hollywood 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 Hollywood 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 Hollywood 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 Hollywood. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
