About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.

Our first time using Ryan since moving to the area and he was fantastic! Gave us daily updates on our dogs and the house was spotless when we got home. Our boys can be a lot so finding a good sitter is hard but we would definitely use him again!!

Wow! Mooney is fantastic! I think our dog Frankie might prefer Mooney to us at this rate 😂 Mooney did such a fantastic job taking care of our dog and home. He is reliable and his communication is top notch. And most importantly, you can tell he really cares about your pet. We will absolutely use him again for future pet/home sitting.

Marisela went above and beyond with my girls. I appreciate your willingness to help me in my day notice request. She was extremely understanding and patient to my eldest dog who takes a little longer to build trust. I highly recommend her services— I have very picky expectations who watches my girls.

About: I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone else. Whether you're traveling for work, taking a vacation, or simply need help during a busy week, you're trusting someone to care for a member of your family. I understand that responsibility, and I never take it for granted. I specialize in House Sitting, Pet Boarding, and Dog Walking, providing personalized care that's tailored to each pet's unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, a curious kitten, or a senior companion who enjoys a slower pace, I take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I welcome pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages, including cats. From playful puppies to senior pets and those with special needs, I tailor my care to meet each pet's individual personality and routine. I also have extensive experience administering oral medications and carefully following detailed care instructions, so you can feel confident your pet's health and well-being are always my priority. I don't see pets as another booking on my calendar. I see them as family members who deserve patience, kindness, attention, and genuine affection. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood while their family is away. My goal isn't simply to care for your pet. It's to earn your trust and become someone you can rely on whenever you need dependable, compassionate pet care. Because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Your pet will receive plenty of companionship, supervision, and love throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. My flexible schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, medications, walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention based on your pet's normal routine. I know consistency helps pets feel secure, so I do everything I can to make their day feel familiar, comfortable, and stress-free. Communication is just as important to me as the care I provide. When you book with me, you can expect: • Daily updates so you always know how your pet is doing. • Plenty of photos and videos so you can enjoy the little moments you'll miss. • Prompt, reliable communication whenever you have questions. • Honest updates about meals, walks, playtime, naps, medications, and your pet's overall well-being. My goal is for you to relax and enjoy your time away, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the same love and attention they're accustomed to at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is always the same: creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. For added convenience, my home is located about 15 minutes from Sacramento International Airport (SMF), making drop-off and pick-up easy for pet parents traveling for work, vacations, or weekend getaways. My home is designed with pets in mind. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore, along with several nearby parks and scenic walking trails that are perfect for daily walks, exercise, and outdoor adventures. Whether your pet enjoys an energetic game of fetch, exploring new scents, or a leisurely stroll, I'll make sure they get the activity, enrichment, and one-on-one attention they need. During every visit or stay, your pet receives much more than the basics. They'll enjoy companionship, playtime, enrichment, exercise, affection, and plenty of individualized attention. Whether they love chasing a ball, exploring the neighborhood, curling up on the couch, or simply relaxing beside someone they trust, I'll make sure their days are filled with comfort, fun, and genuine care. If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll carefully follow their established routine, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, favorite activities, bedtime routines, and any special instructions you provide. I'll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I give your pet. Above all, I want every pet to feel loved, every home to be respected, and every pet owner to have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care. I'd love to schedule a Meet & Greet so we can get to know each other, answer any questions you may have, and make sure we're the perfect fit. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member with the love, care, and attention they deserve.

Joel is an excellent dog sitter! My dogs are my family and I usually worry about them when I'm away from home, but I feel totally at ease when Joel is with them. He takes consistent, thoughtful care of them, and it's clear in the pictures he takes that the dogs are having a blast.

Jasmine was nothing short of amazing! She took care of our two dogs and our house for three days while we were on vacation. She is a natural with animals, making our rescue dogs feel safe and secure. They loved her! On top of taking them on walks and playing with them, she also kept our plants alive during the heatwave and fed the multitude of wild birds who frequent our feeders. She even laundered the sheets on the bed where she slept. All and all, we found her to be trustworthy and reliable, just like one of the family. We're so lucky to have found her.

We have never had anyone stay at our house with our animals before, so the idea of leaving them with a complete stranger was very daunting. Sydney was absolutely wonderful with our two big, rambunctious dogs (2 year old huskies) and four cats. Our house was exactly as we left it and she sent lots of updates so we could see everyone’s sweet faces and how much fun they were having without us! She was terrific about updating us when she got here and letting us know how everything was going. She was always very responsive through the whole process, and it was very clear our animals were all comfortable and enjoying their normal routine with her. We will absolutely have Sydney back, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!

About: Hi! I'm Susi, and my goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible, for both you and your pets. My experience comes from being a lifelong dog owner and understanding firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I know that every dog has their own routine, comfort level, and quirks that make them who they are. That’s why I focus on providing personalized care for one family at a time, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your pet can feel safe and loved. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, so I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I'll follow your instructions carefully, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and bedtime routines, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. When your pet stays with me, they'll receive the same love, patience, and care I'd want for my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I’ve structured my schedule so every pet in my care receives consistent attention, companionship, and supervision. I’m home everyday of the week and have plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am-12pm and 6pm-9pm, but someone is always home, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. Because I only care for one family’s pets at a time, I’m able to give them focused, personalized care instead of dividing my attention between multiple bookings. My goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress free as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home. In my home, I provide a calm, comfortable environment where pets can settle in and feel like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard for supervised potty breaks, playtime, and outdoor enrichment, along with a quiet dog park just a few blocks away that is usually empty. I only use the park when it is appropriate for the individual dog and with the owner’s permission. I also have a dog (Jayda) of my own who is friendly, calm, and respectful of other dogs’ boundaries. I always prioritize safe introductions and closely monitor interactions so every pet feels comfortable. If a visiting dog is not comfortable around other dogs, my home has separate rooms and spaces where pets can be safely kept apart whenever necessary. Their comfort and safety always come first. Because I care for one family at a time, I can give each pet personalized attention and follow their usual feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. For care in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. During drop-ins or house sitting, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, litter box or yard cleanup, medication when needed, playtime, affection, and any other care instructions provided. For walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and letting each dog move at a pace that suits their age, energy level, and comfort. No matter the service, I send regular photo and message updates so owners can feel confident knowing their pet is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care.

Jenna is the best! We used to board our dogs until we got an epilepsy diagnosis for one of them right before a trip and needed to find someone to stay with our dogs for greater peace of mind. She responded promptly and became a life saver! While staying with our dogs we got great daily updates and came home to a clean house and very happy pups. We have 3 dogs, and they all love Miss Jenna! She will be our first choice every time we travel we now.

She stayed at our house while we went out of town for a week and kept in constant communication with us the entire time, not to mention the amazing photos she takes!! Our house was so clean when we got home and it was such a relief to know we could trust our pups were in good hands while we were away!

About: My husband and I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. We have four dogs of our own, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleaning, and maintaining a calm and safe routine are part of our everyday life. We also have experience house sitting through TrustedHousesitters and have received several five-star reviews. We are responsible, clean, attentive, and comfortable caring for multiple pets at once, including senior animals and pets with different routines or feeding needs. We understand how important it is to follow instructions carefully, keep pets comfortable in their familiar home, send regular updates, and treat every home with respect. My husband and I have a flexible schedule, which allows us to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in our care. We work remotely and travel throughout California, so we're often available for house sitting, overnight stays, walks, and drop-in visits. We always make sure pets stick to their normal routines and receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. We understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so we carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and home care. Safety is always our top priority—we double-check doors and gates, use leashes when required, and never leave pets unattended longer than agreed. We treat every home with the same care and respect as our own, keep it clean and secure, and provide regular photo and video updates so owners can relax while they're away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Karnak

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 2,632 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Karnak. 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 Karnak 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 Karnak 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 Karnak 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 Karnak. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
