“Monica was great. She was not only attentive to our pup’s needs, but Monica genuinely enjoyed her time with her. She sent pictures or texts to me daily which put my mind at ease. And on top of that, she left my house in tip top shape, sparkling clean! I would highly recommend Monica as a sitter for your pet.”

“Five stars isn’t enough. We’ve had great dog sitters, but Beverly blew us away with her kind, thoughtful, and communicative approach. We’ve never felt more comfortable and confident leaving our home and dog in her extremely capable hands. Thank you, Beverly! Will book again and again.”

About: Fur babies love that I genuinely offer love and care at first sight and touch. With more than 10 years of first hand experience and knowledge, I truly enjoy interacting with the most intelligent, loyal, and loving creatures of them all. I have great pet care experience in: bath & grooming, tick & flea removal, and hair dematting. Also, I have experience administering medications. My key objective is to keep your fur baby comfortable and happy every minute under my watch. I have a flexible schedule with open extra early or late bookings for weekdays and weekends. I truly believe our beloved fur babies have a 6th sense and they will always be the best judge when sniffing people out if you get what I mean.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Anthony! He cared for our severely injured pup with the utmost compassion, patience, and professionalism. From the very start, Anthony followed every single care instruction with precision, making sure our dog was comfortable, safe, and on track with recovery. Beyond just being attentive, he showed our pup so much genuine love and affection—it truly gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in the best hands possible. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet as if they were their own, but that’s exactly what Anthony did. We are beyond grateful for his kindness and dedication, and we couldn’t feel more appreciative. We are already looking forward to having him doggy sit for us again in the future. Thank you for everything, Anthony!”

“Jordan was amazing! My senior citizen has a history of bad anxiety especially around the Fourth of July with the fireworks but Jordan kept me reassured that my boy was doing great and that made me at peace while I was away, which is all I can ever ask for while I’m away. She sent pictures and updates and I would definitely reuse her again.”


About: I've grown up around animals my whole life and have owned and cared for many different pets over the years, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of temperaments and needs. I'm a responsible, reliable student here in Pasadena, working to help support myself through school, and I take that responsibility seriously when it comes to caring for someone else's pet too. Whether it's a daily walk or watching your house and pets while you're away, I show up on time, follow your instructions closely, and treat your animals like my own. I'd love to be your go-to sitter. I'm a full-time student, so pet care fits naturally around my class and research schedule rather than competing with a 9-to-5. I have reliable open blocks most weekdays for walks and check-ins, plus wide-open evenings and weekends for overnight house sitting. I'm also happy to be flexible if your schedule changes last minute. When I'm caring for pets in your home, I treat it like my own. I follow your instructions on locks, alarms, feeding, and routines exactly, I don't have guests over, and I keep a close eye on the house the whole time I'm there. On walks, I always keep dogs leashed near roads and double check collars and harnesses before heading out.
“We cannot recommend Carissa highly enough! From our initial meet-and-greet, we knew Cadbury would be in great hands. What impressed us the most was Carissa's attentiveness and care. She took the time to ask detailed questions about Cadbury’s daily routines and personality traits. Carissa sent regular updates, complete with photos which completely eased our worries about leaving Cadbury at home for a week. When we returned home, our house was perfectly clean, and it was evident Cadbury had received plenty of love, attention, and exercise. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is responsible, compassionate, and truly loves dogs, look no further than Carissa. She provides a top-notch service and gives you complete peace of mind. We will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of pets and been around pets since I was a child. I mainly specialize in cats but I have experience with medium and little sized dogs too. I have had my own 2 kitties for about 8 years. I am a gig worker and I love having flexibility. It is great for being able to drop in and play with your animals or feed them. With my knack for attention to detail I can easily pay mind to any specific instructions I may need to follow. I give my pets love, patience and understanding and would treat your animals with the same respect I give my own.
About: Hello, I’ve had experience with dogs from a young age. I got my first dog when I was 10 years old and cared for him until I was 25. About five years ago, I brought home my current dog as a puppy, just a few weeks old, and I’ve been raising him ever since. He’s truly like my kid. Through these years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with training, daily care, grooming, and understanding dog behavior. I’ve also learned how to handle situations like anxiety and stress, making sure he feels safe and comfortable. Having a dog has not only been a joy, but it has also taught me patience, responsibility, and the deep bond that comes from caring for animals. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. Since I already care for my own dog, I’m used to scheduling walks, feeding, grooming, and playtime around my day. I make sure to prioritize their needs by setting aside time in the morning and evening for exercise, and I stay consistent with training and routines to keep them comfortable. Taking care of pets has become second nature to me, so incorporating it into my daily life feels natural and rewarding. As a pet boarding provider, the safety and well-being of the animals in my care is my top priority. I ensure that my home is a secure environment, free from hazards such as exposed wires, toxic plants, or small objects that pets could swallow. I provide separate, comfortable spaces for each pet as needed, with access to fresh water, proper nutrition, and appropriate bedding. I maintain a clean environment by regularly sanitizing food and water bowls, litter areas, and common spaces. I supervise pets at all times to prevent conflicts and ensure that each animal receives individual attention, exercise, and mental stimulation. I also follow any specific instructions from the pet owners regarding feeding schedules, medications, or behavioral needs to ensure continuity of care. Overall, my goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel at home while staying with me.
About: As a long time owner of a working breed, I am familiar with energetic dogs that need both physical activity and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. I go on daily hour long strolls each evening with my own dog as well as morning walks with play sessions scattered throughout the day. In addition to caring for my own dog, I've regularly helped friends and watch their dogs while they're away. This has given me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it's taking them on walks, keeping up with feeding schedules, providing companionship, or making sure they feel comfortable in a new environment, I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique needs and personality! When caring for your dog, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, or simply providing companionship and attention. I live in a home with a fenced backyard with my partner who is also work from home, so we have a very flexible schedule and will always have at least one person supervising your pet. Since I've also used dog sitting apps before for when I needed to travel abroad, I understand how important it is to keep you updated with photos, messages, and plenty of reassurance so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm currently in-between jobs, so I'll have plenty of time to spend the day with your pups! This also means my current schedule is very flexible to fit around your dogs routine and needs. I have a fenced backyard with a friendly 4 year old Samoyed in a very walk-able neighborhood. I have a dog bed is most rooms around the house so they can pick and choose wherever they wish to lounge.
“Always such a pleasure to see Victoria. Our husky, Mika, absolutely loves her. Her dog, Nova, is the sweetest too. Victoria is so wonderful with Mika and makes sure that she has a safe and fun time! Highly recommend.”

“Viviana was amazing with our puppy, Ollie! It’s clear that she has a true love for animals and is committed to providing excellent care. She’s also knowledgeable and gave us great feedback on what to expect during this stage (it’s our first time raising a puppy). I would have her watch Ollie again soon, and I would recommend Viviana to others in a heartbeat!”

About: I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting, with care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always loved caring for them. My family has had many rescue pups over the years, giving me experience with different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels—from Shih Tzus to German Shepherds and Rottweilers. I’ve also become the go-to person for family, friends, and neighbors when they need someone they trust to care for their dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and following each dog’s routine while their owners are away. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog and creating a positive experience that makes them feel cared for. I work part-time remotely from home in the mornings, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day, making pet care a natural part of my routine. My availability allows me to be present and dependable while your pet is in my care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll provide a calm and caring environment while following your instructions, routines, and any special needs. Pets will never be left unattended and will always have access to fresh water. I’ll also share regular updates and photos so you can stay connected and feel confident knowing your furry family member is being cared for while you’re away.
About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved being around animals. Over the years, friends and family have regularly trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs while they're away. I’m calm, responsible, and happy to follow your pet’s routines to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether it’s a daily walk, some playtime, or a full day of care, I treat every dog like my own. I'm currently in between work projects so I have ample time to care for your dog during the week and on the weekends - can be available anytime with enough advanced notice. Unfortunately, I'm not able to host your fur baby at my house at this time. However, I'd be happy to keep them company at your home and promise to leave your space better than I found it.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I’ve raised 5 dogs of my own—Money, Little Bro, Sugar, Latte, and my beloved senior pup Bear Bear, who was with us until the age of 18. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs, including overnight stays in my home. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pup in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. I also love capturing sweet, candid moments and sharing photos with pet parents so they can see how their pups are doing while they’re away. I recently stepped away from my full-time career and am enjoying having more flexibility in my schedule. This gives me plenty of time to give your pup the attention, companionship, walks, and care they need. I’m generally available throughout the week and can work with your dog’s routine and schedule. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and each dog’s individual routine and needs. I follow pet parents’ instructions carefully and treat their home with the same respect I would my own. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel connected and know your pup is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Justine was so amazing! I didn’t have a single worry while I was gone because I knew my girls were in good hands. She sent me lots of pictures and kept the house super clean. I will definitely be booking her again!”

“Justin provided an excellent service! He connected with my dog Cometa and ensure he was exercised, fed, safe, and well cared! Cometa was relaxed and happy! I found him calm and secured at my arrival! I will continue having Justin taking care of my dog as many times as my dog needs service! Justin is dependable, responsible, nurturing and committed to provide de best service possible. I’m very grateful and happy with his service. Gracias, gracias, gracias….”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Irwindale
Tyler was amazing with my dogs! She house sat for my 2 large dogs (one of them being reactive) for a whole week! She followed all the instructions that we gave her. We had specific instructions to keep our dogs seperate from each other because we had never left them before and were worried about how my reactive dog would act towards our other dog while we were away. We are so grateful for her!

Jaylin and Isaiah housesat and took care of my sweet anxious dog, Magpie while I was out of town. I returned home to a completely spotless house, towels folded, and a relaxed dog who was listening to some zen dog calming youtube videos, which I thought was extra sweet and thoughtful. They were great communicators and sent me lots of cute picture updates. I'd definitely book them again!

As always, we felt completely comfortable knowing Gio was caring for our dog and cat. He sends regular photos and communicates clearly, which we really appreciate. He also took great care of our home and followed all instructions perfectly. Having that kind of peace of mind while traveling is invaluable. Our pets absolutely love Gio!
Pasha and Nathan were absolutely fantastic with our home, two dogs, and new cat. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly took great care of everything while we were away. All of our pets were happy, relaxed, and well loved when we returned, and the house was in great shape. We would happily book them again.

Sara did such a great job taking care of our cat! She gave him the care he needed, including getting his daily medication. She was also really communicative and sent tons of photos! She also took great care of our home while she stayed there, everything was very clean when we returned. We hope to continue to use her whenever we need a pet sitter:)

FAQs for House Sitting - Irwindale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Irwindale on Rover is $35.31 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 15,259 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Irwindale. 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 Irwindale 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 Irwindale 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 Irwindale 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 Irwindale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
