“We LOVED Sonia! Our pup is a bit of a handful, and can sometimes be a little anxious around new people, but Sonia has such a calm and grounded energy, and he was comfortable with her right away. We came home to find him the happiest he’s ever been after our being away, and Sonia also took great care of our home while we were gone. Thank you so much Sonia!”

“Tamar was fantastic with my four-year-old husky. She has a husky herself so she understood the nuances.She was very attentive and stayed for long periods of time. She sent a lot of pictures and updates. The communication is superb and follow up was really appreciated. Tamar was very respectful of my house, I definitely recommend using Tamar for housesitting.”

About: I love dogs! They have been a part of my life for more than 22 years. I have had the pleasure of raising our family dogs to my own set of fur babies. Life is more enjoyable with pets! As a pet parent, I know how challenging it can be to find someone to care for your pups, since no one loves them like you do. Let me help take some of the stress out of pet care. I provide convenient, reliable, and safe dog walking/boarding services.  I have experience helping with crate and potty training, administering medication, and rubbing bellies. From pups to senior dogs, I tailor my care to their needs. All breeds are welcomed for walking services and pet sitting; small to medium breeds are welcomed for boarding.  Look forward to hearing from you! I am currently working part-time and have a flexible schedule when it comes to pet care. I can provide morning, afternoon and evening walks as needed. I am able to board dogs any day of the week and can provide house sitting services with advance notice. I have two dogs at home who are playful and friendly, and a cat that knows she is the queen of her domain. My dogs are crate trained and have access to the house whenever my wife or I are home. Your dogs can expect to have a safe environment, companionship, with regular walks. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood, a short drive from a very nice dog park.

About: I have had many dogs growing up and I have been able to connect with them one way or another. My parents would travel a lot growing up so I would be responsible for taking care of them and my cats, and I love doing it! I love waking up next to a fluffy puppy and getting some cuddles in. I also love to take a stroll around the neighborhood with them! I also have training with puppies. I have learned how to do various things like potty and crate training for example. I'd be more than happy to make sure your pups receive the care that they deserve. I am currently working on online school, which means I am able to work and look out for your kitties whenever and wherever you need! In your home, I follow all the rules that you give me, whether thats for your pet or your house. This can include rules such as making sure they don't go into certain rooms/areas in your home, handling them the way you would like me to, and not feeding them what they are not allowed to be fed. As the pet sitter, I also will not go into the rooms/areas you do not want me to enter and I will follow any other house rules you would like me to. I do not mind security and nanny cams. I am also more than happy to send you updates and photos of your kitties.

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for over 5 years, including seniors, shy rescues, and energetic kittens. I’ve helped foster and rehome multiple cats, and currently care for three of my own. Friends and neighbors often rely on me to feed, clean, and spend quality time with their pets. I’m gentle, attentive, and love learning each animal’s unique personality. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and every interaction with animals feels incredibly healing and meaningful to me. I wish I could welcome even more animals into my life, but since I can’t right now, I treat every pet I care for like family whether they live in my home or yours. Pet care is already part of my daily life. I have three cats at home, including one I'm currently fostering. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love being around them as much as possible. I provide a calm, pet-friendly space with lots of love and patience. I'm especially experienced with shy or anxious cats and dogs, and I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. My own pets are well socialized, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions you have.

The animals were in good spirits when we came home which is always a good sign! We were so grateful they were able to sit for us for such a long stay and would book them again.”

About: Like many pet lovers know, animals have a good radar for caring people. Often animals approach me, because they know I pay attention and feel safe. I also work very well with senior pets and those needing medical care. I am an educator, researcher and program evaluator, who works from home a couple times a week. I teach educators, high school, and college students. I conduct research on well-being and school success. Furthermore I evaluate health and educational programs. I am a published author and lead a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization supporting student mental health and success. I believe that pets will indicate their wants preferences and needs. Furthermore, I also believe that pet owners, for the most part, are most informed on the best way to keep their animals happy and healthy. Therefore I always follow the lead of pet owners and make sure to establish a secure relationship with the animals I have the honor of working with.

About: Ever since I was a kid I’ve always had an affinity for animals and their care. I grew up taking care of animals and have become the designated sitter for family and friends. With years of experience with an animal adoption Im comfortable with dogs of any age, size and temperament. I believe pets are family and i love to pour into them and go above and beyond to give them a fun and loving experience. I know how important it is for animals have their routine and I make it my upmost priority to maintain that for them! No quirk is too quirky. I work from home so my schedule is free and adaptable. Whatever your dog’s needs are, I want them to be as comfortable as possible! I love cuddles and I can offer some basic training. I’m looking forward to spending time with your pets! I currently work part time so my schedule varies week a bit week to week. But im typically free in the evenings and on thursday, friday, and sunday. I will care for pets in your home by keeping their routines, respecting their space/autonomy, and trying to maintain as much normalcy as possible. Giving them as much love and care and you would.

Jess makes traveling so much easier for us because we know our boys are home, happy, and loved. They're so excited to see her that they barely notice we're leaving, and when we get home, they're like, "were you gone?" which is exactly what I want - doggos who get to continue enjoying their normal lives even when we're not here. I'm so grateful to Jess for caring for them and sending us pics of them lounging in their usual spots. We look forward to booking her again in the future and would easily recommend her services to anyone else who needs someone loving and responsible to care for their fur babies while they're gone.

Kevin was absolutely amazing. I have multiple animals, and each one has their own personality, routines, and individual needs, so finding someone I genuinely trust with all of them isn't easy. Kevin was incredibly compassionate, patient, and attentive with every single one of them. I could tell he really took the time to understand each animal rather than just going through the motions of feeding and caring for them. He was also extremely respectful of my home and left everything clean and well cared for. Communication was great, he was dependable, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my animals and my home were in his hands while I was away. That peace of mind is honestly priceless when you have animals who require a little extra care and attention. It's very clear that Kevin genuinely cares about animals and takes the responsibility of caring for someone else's pets and home seriously. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals and a home that had been treated with respect. I wouldn't hesitate to have him stay again and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and responsible house and pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Kinneloa Mesa

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Kinneloa Mesa is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $104 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 14,678 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kinneloa Mesa. 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 Kinneloa Mesa 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 Kinneloa Mesa 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 Kinneloa Mesa 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 Kinneloa Mesa. On Rover:

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.
