Mason was wonderful! He came over for a pre-meet and was very polite and was happy to do what we asked. BUT he went above and beyond walking the dogs, playing bubbles. Great communicator. Sent pics and videos. Had a small emergency and he handled it beautifully! So happy we found him!!!!

Hired Kelly to see how petting would work for a trip in the future. Kelly was super friendly. Came for a quick house tour during the week and watched our pets on that Friday. She got here right when we asked. Feed and hung out with the dogs. Sent photos. Will hire again

You can trust that I am efficient when it comes to taking care of your pets. I have plenty of tools to take your fur babies on a day of fun! With both a pet stroller and leashes, I can ensure cats and dogs get some nice fresh air.

We absolutely loved having Theresa as a sitter! She was great with our girls and they loved her. They can be finicky dogs and they felt comfortable with her from the start with snuggles on the first day. She was very attentive with lots of feedback that enabled us to enjoy our vacation because we knew our girls were well taken care of.

Stephanie was absolutely incredible. She was very communicative, she made sure to update us with pictures and videos daily (for 2 weeks!) and Albus was so sad to leave her. She made sure things were as close to home with her as possible. She welcomed my detailed, type-A notes and schedule. She went out of her way to coordinate a drop off to get him back home. I feel so good knowing that we found someone kind and reliable for our pet. I would highly recommend her and I plan to use her again in future.

About: I’ve had pups of my own my whole life. I love all animals and want to make sure your other half is cared for! I work five days a week but I am allotted an hour everyday at lunch to go provide care to your furry friend! After work I will be able to let them out and get them out for exercise ! I always ensure that the animals care is met based on their specific needs, walks are very important and making sure they have ample time to get their energy out.

Lark is an amazing pet sitter that took great care of our dog and two cats while we were out of town for over a week. From the first time I met her I knew she'd take good care of them and of our home, and I was not wrong. She sent regular updates and pictures, letting us know how our babies were doing throughout the day. I could tell she was taking the time to learn each one their personalities including their likes and dislikes. Even though we were far away overseas, we felt comfortable knowing our three guys were being looked after by such a caring and attentive person. We loved that we were able to keep all three of them at home while we were out of town. I will absolutely hire Lark again and will wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone.

About: Hi, I’m Amaya! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly love caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I love teaching them tricks, going on walks, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I also have years of experience working at a pet boarding facility and volunteering at our local animal shelter, so I’m confident handling dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether it’s snuggles, playtime, or structured care, your pets will be treated like family with me! I work part-time at a restaurant, so my shifts aren’t the same every week. But no worries—I update my Rover calendar regularly, and I’m great at swapping shifts last-minute if I can. Just let me know your dates and I’ll make room for your pets! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I currently live with three cats and three dogs, so I don’t offer boarding or in-home pet care at this time to ensure a calm, controlled environment for everyone. However, I’m more than happy to provide drop-in visits and walks, and I take great care to follow your instructions, routines, and preferences exactly as you leave them. I always treat pets and their spaces with the same respect I give my own. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick potty break or taking your pup for a walk, I’m committed to creating a safe, loving experience every time.

Lark is so compassionate and caring towards us, and our cat, Maple. We received many updates on how she was doing and Made Maple feel safe and loved. Lark ease our mind while we took our first family vacation! Lark was so attentive, she took care of our plants and mail, not to mention the garbage, too. Lark is the only person I’d trust with our ball of fur. We loved having Lark take good care of Maple!! She’s such a blessing!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hollywood Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Hollywood Heights on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,530 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hollywood 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 Hollywood 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 Hollywood 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 Hollywood 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 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 Heights. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
