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!!!

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.

Cody was very good with our dog Kody. He was very responsible and texted us any time he had questions. He also sent pictures and was always willing to meet our needs. I could really tell that Cody loved our dog and did a great job. We even came come to a clean house which was so appreciated.

About: Hi! I'm Michelle, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, sniffing every tree on the block, or simply relaxing with company, my goal is for them to feel safe, happy, and excited every time we're together. I also believe pet parents deserve peace of mind, so I always strive to communicate clearly and keep owners updated while their pets are in my care. Experience with Dogs: I have spent the last six years walking dogs several days a week, working with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I've become especially comfortable helping anxious or fearful dogs build confidence while keeping safety my top priority. I'm especially attentive to leash safety, reading body language, and adjusting each walk to the dog's comfort level to ensure they feel ready to explore outdoors. Senior Dog Care: I also have several years of experience caring for senior dogs with mobility issues, hearing and vision loss, allergies, and medication needs. This taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of adapting care to each dog's individual needs. Senior pets often communicate through subtle changes in behavior, and I pride myself on noticing shifts in their temperament, mobility, appetite, energy levels, comfort, or daily routines so I can respond with calm and appropriate care. Training & Enrichment: I enjoy keeping pets mentally engaged through positive reinforcement, interactive play, and enrichment activities that match their personality and energy level. Whether we're practicing simple cues, playing a favorite game, exploring something new, or simply enjoying quality one-on-one time, I love creating positive experiences that help pets feel happy, engaged, and confident. Every pet has their own personality, quirks, and routines, and getting to know those little things is honestly one of my favorite parts of this work. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and excited to see me each time we meet. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. While Fridays and Saturdays may fill up more quickly due to existing commitments, I always do my best to accommodate new requests whenever possible. If you're unsure about availability, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to see what I can do! Safety is always my highest priority, whether I'm caring for pets in your home or out on a walk. I make a point to stay aware of our surroundings, watching for potential hazards, changes in behavior, and anything that may cause a pet stress or discomfort. I pay close attention to body language and know that even subtle changes in posture, movement, appetite, energy, or demeanor can be important. I also understand that every pet has different routines, boundaries, and comfort levels. My goal is to respect those routines while creating an environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I believe clear communication with pet parents is just as important, so I always keep owners updated and will never hesitate to reach out if something seems out of the ordinary. At the end of every visit, my hope is that your pet feels happier, more comfortable, and excited for the next time we spend together.

About: I've had pets all my life. I've had dogs, cats, fish, and turtles. I've also cared for hamsters, rabbits, and guinea pigs before. I've walked, fed, bathed, house sat, and played with pets belonging to family and friends. Having had my own pets throughout my life, I know how precious furry friends are. I will tend to your pet with utmost care! I'm currently working on my master's so my schedule is inconsistent. However, if you need me to care for your pet at a specific time, please contact me and we can try to work something out! How I care for your pets will largely depend on your preferences as the owner. I want to get to know your pet's personality, preferences, and energy leveI. I would like a general schedule of feeding and bathroom times and instructions. In your home, I can play with your pet, sit next to them, cuddle with them, or go out for brief walks.

About: Welcome to Sung & So Pet Care! Our family, including our beloved Cocker Spaniel Sunny, provides a cage-free, loving home for dogs. With over 4 years of experience caring for various breeds, we follow each dog’s routine closely and ensure every pet gets plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, just like Sunny enjoys every day. I stay at home every day, making food and taking care of the dogs. My husband goes to work every day and my son goes to school in the morning and goes home to do other activities. On his free time, he usually plays games or plays with the dogs. I care for pets in a safe, calm, and loving environment where they are treated like family. In my home, dogs stay in a cage-free space and are supervised throughout the day. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I also reinforce basic manners and leash etiquette during walks. Upon request, I provide homemade meals or treats once a day in addition to their regular food, and for long-term stays, I offer bathing services. To ensure a healthy environment, all pets must be up to date on vaccinations, spayed or neutered, and on regular flea prevention. I require advance booking and strongly recommend a meet-and-greet visit before care begins so pets can feel comfortable and adjust well. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always safety, consistency, and giving each pet the same love and attention I give my own. 🐶💛

About: I've taken care of various kinds of dogs for over ten years. My family has always owned large dog breeds, and I have done sitting for medium, small-sized dogs, and puppies. I have experience with pets on a special diet, so I understand the importance of attention to detail when it comes to taking care of your pets. I have experience walking dogs up to 140 pounds, and I also own two cats and a dog of my own currently. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to help out with your pets! I'm available on weekdays and weekends, and am comfortable with mornings and evenings. I have a reliable source of transportation to reach your destination on time. I'm comfortable taking your dog on walks, playing in the yard with toys, or staying in and cuddling on the couch!

We couldn’t be happier with the care Richard provided for our boys while we were away. He went above and beyond to ensure they were well looked after, and it was clear from the moment we returned that our dogs had bonded with him. They were so attached that they even wanted to follow him when he left! Richard is attentive, reliable, and truly has a way with pups. We felt completely at ease knowing our boys were in such good hands. Highly recommend!

There were some tech issues and Jennifer was able to look into them for me and get them sorted so all of the automated cat gear could continue to function.

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was little :) Dogs, cats, chickens, quails, guinea pigs, and more! I’ve also volunteered at dog and cat shelters, which has really helped me understand different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m a calm, attentive, and gentle sitter who really enjoys spending time with animals. I pay close attention to little things, stick to each pet’s usual routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide cuddles, walks, playtime, or simply quiet companionship—whatever suits your pet best. I also send regular photo updates and stay in touch throughout the day for your peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely loving toward animals, I’d be happy to care for your pet 🤍 Feel free to reach out with any questions! I have plenty of time throughout the day to check in on pets, play with them, keep them company, and follow their usual routines. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give each pet the attention and calm presence they need :) I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets feel most comfortable and secure. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress and allows me to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m a calm, respectful, and home-oriented person. I treat every home with care and attention, keep spaces clean and organized, and follow all house instructions closely. Whether it’s locking doors, respecting quiet hours, or handling keys and security systems responsibly, I take home safety seriously. I’m comfortable staying overnight when needed and make sure pets are never left feeling alone or unsettled. My goal is to create a steady, peaceful presence — someone your pet can trust and relax around, and someone you can feel confident welcoming into your home.

Katherine is fantastic! She recently stayed at our house for 3 days overnight with our 50 lb goldendoodle Freddie - Freddie is a bit timid around new people but was instantly calm with her and her experience is obvious. She went above-and-beyond to communicate with us routinely throughout each day, sending cute photos and updates and even did a load of laundry on her last day which made arriving home that much easier. We have already booked Katherine again for upcoming travel and absolutely recommend her!

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 Crescenta-Montrose

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in La Crescenta-Montrose on Rover is $69.93 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 13,668 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Crescenta-Montrose. 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 Crescenta-Montrose 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 Crescenta-Montrose 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 Crescenta-Montrose 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 Crescenta-Montrose. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
