“The best dog sitter! Our dogs love her and she always leaves our house nice a tidy. Regular updates are great so we never have to worry about the dogs while away. Will continue to be a repeat customer as long as possible!”
“Oliver is amazing! He was incredibly patient with my shy, slow to warm dog Tulip. I am super grateful for his friendly professional attentiveness and meeting with us 4x before the actual dog home sit days to get to know her. She bonded after the 5 nights with him. A very heart-warming successful Rover experience. So relieved to have a dependable and local dog sitter. Wr highly recommend Oliver!! 🤍🐶”
“Lydia is a wonderful and thoughtful pet sitter. She stayed with our cats and guinea pigs over thanksgiving and we will definitely be asking her to watch them again. We received so many adorable updates from her and our house was even cleaner than when we left!”
“We highly recommend Vicki! She was on time, sent pictures and updates to let us know how our babies were doing frequently, and was very kind! Our littlest yorkie has severe anxiety and warmed up to her quickly. So glad she is able to watch our pups while we are in town for the week.”
“Danielle did an amazing job, we are so grateful for her watching Cookie and Molly. We were especially grateful for the fact that she confirmed the job, was reliable, and that she sent lots of pictures and updates (which was really nice for an anxious pet mama). She also checked in with us before leaving and washed the sheets. We would definitely book with her again.”
“Danny helped us out by spending the day with our puppy after her surgery. It was so nice to know she was well taken care of. As always, Danny is super easy to communicate with and takes great care of our pets and home.”
“Mona did a fantastic job watching Copper for an extended period of time. Even though Copper is a larger dog she did not have any issues, and sent plenty of pictures and updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable house/dogsitter!”
“Jerrett did a great job with our house and two pups during an 5-day overnight stay. He’s very responsible, communicative and shared lots of photo/video updates. Our vacation was stress-free as we knew everything was going well at home. Would highly recommend him to care for your pets!”
“Savanah was a fantastic sitter for our puppy, Benny! She took such great care of him and kept us updated with frequent photos: Benny looked happy and content in every one! Not only was she wonderful with our pup, but she also left our home spotless when we returned from our trip. As a sweet surprise, she even made a cute bracelet for our daughter, which she loved! It’s safe to say we’ll definitely be using Savanah as our puppy sitter again. Benny already adores her!”
“Jackie took SUCH great care of my Llama! I was so nervous leaving my dog with someone new, and especially while I was out of the country and several time zones away, but Jackie set my mind at ease. She sent frequent texts and photos, and was always responsive when I checked in. Llama was happy and relaxed when I came home, and the house was spotless. The next time Llama needs a sitter, I will absolutely reach out to Jackie first. She is trustworthy, responsible, and she really cares for animals.”
“Chase was fabulous. He took great care of our dog and home, and sent us so many wonderful photos. Having a dog sitter hasn't always been easy for our dog but Chase made it effortless. We will definitely utilize his services again. Peace of mind is priceless. Many thanks!”
“I highly recommend Vivienne to anyone who is looking for a trusted and reliable sitter for their fur baby. We were traveling out of town, ended up having delays and Vivienne was more than flexible with the sudden changes and took the best care of our high energy GSP. She is highly responsive, attentive, caring and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter to watch him.”
“We cannot say enough about Karen-Joyce. She is professional, reliable, pays attention to the details, and took great care of our pets and home. We will use her as often as she’s available when we travel. Meg Zahner”
“Elizabeth went above and beyond. Before accepting the booking, she came to our home for a meet and greet on her own time. We truly appreciate her taking the time to do this, She communicated with us before the set time to make sure all was as planned and showed up exactly as she stated she would. Not only did she take great care of our dogs, but she left the house in perfect condition. Although not required she took the time to put sheets and towels in the wash. Our pups were so well taken care they were not even excited to have us home! We will definitely request her in the future and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“Bianca was outstanding! She house/pet sat for our two dogs while we were away for 10 days. We received daily updates and photos. She let us know details about the dogs and our house was perfect when we returned. Her experience with animals and understanding of behaviors is clear. Would highly recommend her!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - La Cienega
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in La Cienega on Rover is $56.57 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 247 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Cienega. 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 Cienega 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 Cienega 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 Cienega 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 La Cienega. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
