“Courtney got along so well with our dogs, Snack and Tuna, and made us feel totally stress free leaving them for our vacation. She sent amazing, regular updates (even on a busy holiday) and we came home to happy dogs and a super well-kept house. We’re so glad we found Courtney!”
“Viky was incredible! Appreciated her being able to tackle on a last second house sitting and Monty was left in excellent care. She was incredibly communicatice throughout :)”
“Jessica (Jasper) was great and was loved by our little guy! Took great care of our place and kept our little one entertained and safe. A very kind and compassionate soul whom we'd love to have back.”
About: I have been a life long multi-pet owner. Animals have been my passion my entire life and I recently moved to the area to continue to grow that passion into a career. I am currently attending veterinary school and I am hoping to utilize the flexible scheduling of pet sitting and care to continue my passions off campus. I do come from working in small animal emergency hospital, so I am equipped to deal with any situation and can ensure those with special needs are cared for properly when you are away. I’m currently commuting to and in school five days a week. My best availability is Friday afternoon through Sunday. I have so vary degrees of flexibility on holidays, or when classes are not in session. My care can be as simple as multiple visits and play sessions. Or I can spend the entire day with your pet. No matter what you can rest assured every need will be met with the best attention to detail needed for your pet. I will be providing care for your pet in your own home and walking in your neighborhood. I am pretty flexible and have reliable transportation so if you’d prefer your pet to go to a specific place or park or close hike, I can do that as well. In these hotter months I try to keep walks to mornings before 9am and evenings after 7pm due the heat and temperature of the ground.
“Leaving our home and pets in Bethany’s care turned out to be a great decision. She is responsible and loved our animals like we do. It was very comforting having her at our home.”
“Casey was perfect! She stayed with my dog Cokie for a week while we were out of town and it was love at first sight. Despite her joyous reunion when we returned, she was still looking around for Casey, and slept in the bed she used for a few more days.”
“Cody was great. He sent us photo updates and was a good sport when the power went out just as he was arriving. He left the house clean and the dogs happy.”
“I would highly recommend Laura for your pet sitting needs. We booked Laura to stay overnight in our home to care for our 4 dogs, one of them was a 9 week old puppy who needed lots of love and attention. Laura made it a priority to make sure our pups had all of her attention and love. She was fantastic with all the dogs and they loved her. She took them on walks, cuddled and slept with them, and provided us lots of pictures. She is very professional and respectful. We felt very comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely use her again!!”
About: Full disclosure, candor, your vocabulary word of choice. Hello, I’m André. I’m a 30y/o Los Angeles pet dad, looking for a nice side gig as well as a way to Connect & edify myself with pet-care & social skills going to forward. Primarily with the animals, yet as well built communicative skills with individuals. -Cheers, André. ✌🏽 Currently I am self-employed. Be that as it may, I have quite the open/flexible schedule. Adherence to any fitted schedule isn’t necessary. Unless communicated prior, scheduling shouldn’t ever be an issue of concern. I’ve been surrounded by, and lived with and have familial pets all throughout my life, but I’ve only recently become a pet father myself as of eight months ago. Actions I take in my home to cater to, and care for my pets include the following: -Thorough research on how to continue to better myself as a parent towards my pets. -Patience becoming more and more a virtue 😅 ha. -Repetition -Understanding Acts of discipline, or constructive experiences to better the bond between myself and my pets, are dismal. Redirection, and communication with the pets consistently build the bond. Consistent, and I mean consistent playtime, proper feeding schedule, toys…I’ve built quite the furniture shop for my cats. Lastly just love them, damn. 😁
“Noemi stayed with our senior Bichon Poodle while we went on vacation. While we were away she sent us photos of our little guy enjoying walks and at our home. When we returned to our house, it was so clean and well cared for. What impressed me most was that the shutter in our bedroom was broken BEFORE Noemi ever came & I forgot to tell her about it. She tried to open it & thought she was the one who broke it, so she sent me a picture apologizing. I assured her that she was NOT responsible for the broken shutter- that had happened a long time ago, but I was so impressed with her honesty for letting me know. That shows true character! Our dog was happy and as healthy as a very aging senior can be when we returned. I felt like Noemi took really good care of our sweet boy. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Noemi again!! She is truly awesome!! 5+stars for sure!!!”
“Like a family friend from the very first meet. Lanaye fit in instantly. Our dog who has her quirks took to her immediately. Trustworthy, responsible, respectful and communicative, Lanaye is awesome!”
“Another great stay with our babies, thank you Rachel! House was spotless, fantastic communication and our dog and kitty were both mellow and happy when we got home. Highly recommend!”
“Murphy helped take care of our new puppy on short notice; he was punctual, reliable and so attentive to our fur baby. He sent regular pictures and videos along with updates on what she did throughout the day. Our puppy felt comfortable right away and we will definitely be reaching out to Murphy in the future for any dog sitting needs!”
“We were very happy after our meet and greet with Michelle and Elizabeth. And their long weekend housesit with our two labs didn’t disappoint. Excellent communication, awesome photos, house was left in great condition. Sincerely thankful for their availability, thoughtfulness and expertise. Already have them booked for three more stays and feel extremely confident in their care of our dogs while we’re away.”
“Bob is a truly dog whisperer and a dog lover! Peanut is very picky and can be really tough sometimes but they quite got a long pretty quick. Highly recommend! I will definitely rebook”
“This is the second time I've hired Kathleen to look after my dogs and my house. She has always been incredibly responsive and responsible. She consistently goes above and beyond both with my dogs (even hand feeds my spoiled little one when she's being stubborn) and my house (there was a leak Kathleen went out of her way to try and diagnose, she keeps my plants alive and happy, and my house spotless). I trust her completely and all my animals love her. She sends frequent updates with cute pics, and you can tell she loves all living things. My dogs love her right back and appreciate having a snuggle buddy. She's absolutely wonderful!”
“Brigette was incredible! She was punctual and communicative through and through. We felt such a sense of peace while away knowing that our beloved cat (and home) would be cared for in all the important ways. Whenever we travel again, can only hope that Brigette will be available:)”
The median cost per night for house sitting in La Canada Flintridge is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Canada Flintridge
We came home to a happy pup! We’ve had our dog, Ludo, for over a year and a half and haven't had to leave him for any significant amount of time. So you can imagine our hesitation leaving him for four days while we took a cross-country trip. Thankfully, we found Cody on Rover. He immediately put us at ease with his warm, welcoming demeanor. Ludo took to him instantly, sniffing him like an old friend—and if that isn't a seal of approval, I don't know what is! Cody was punctual and followed Ludo's routine to a T. He sent frequent photo updates that eased our anxiety about being away from him for an extended period. Cody kept our minds at ease and our pup wonderfully entertained. We’ve already decided to book him for all our future trips. If you're nervous about leaving your pet with someone new, you couldn't be in better hands than with Cody.
Casey watched our pups and house sat for us while we were away on vacation for the week. It was our first time leaving the dogs for that long and weren’t sure how they would do because they can be nervous around new people. The dogs warmed up to her right away and Casey was very reassuring when we were feeling anxious about leaving them! Casey was communicative and followed care instructions closely. We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely book with her again!
Wow! Pixie went “above and beyond” in caring for my Cookie who has separation anxiety. I was so worried leaving her, not knowing how she would handle this 3 day break. But with Pixie spoiling her and sending me multiple videos I was able to relax and enjoy my weekend. Book with Pixie! Your pet will thank you. Not only is Pixie energetic and loving, she knows a lot about dogs and how to care for even a spoiled pup.
Julianna cared for my two schnauzers in my home for a week. I was so impressed by her care and attention to detail. My dogs can be yappy and excitable and Julianna’s kindness and calming presence enabled them to warm to her quickly. She played with my dogs regularly, provided them with love and attention and quickly became their favorite person! Julianna also thoughtfully inquired about my preference on the cadence of communication and provided me regular updates. This was the first time I had hired a housesitter for my pups, so it was very comforting to hear from her regularly. Further, my home is in an area populated by coyotes, and Julianna followed all of my safety instructions to keep my dogs safe from predators. Beyond the excellent care Julianna provided to my dogs, she also treated my home with incredible respect and left it in better condition than she found it. I trust Julianna with my dogs and my home and will book with her again. If you want someone warm, respectful, and professional you should book with her too. Thank you Julianna!!

FAQs for House Sitting - La Canada Flintridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in La Canada Flintridge on Rover is $54.79 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 14,250 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Canada Flintridge. 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 La Canada Flintridge 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 La Canada Flintridge 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 La Canada Flintridge 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.
