“Sandra is amazing! She took such great care of my sweet 3 pound dog who is dealing with seizures. I felt completely safe leaving Coco in Sandra’s care. She went above and beyond! Thank you Sandra!!!💜”
“Marissa did an amazing job! We adopted a puppy w/ severe trauma background who is afraid of everyone, who’d never been left alone w/ anyone before. He’s never let anyone near him before. Marisa’s patience and skill w dogs with a traumatic past enabled her to break through his fears and by the end of the day my sweet dog was cuddling with her! It was truly amazing. I highly recommend Marissa.”
“Laura was very professional and was completly comfortable with my pets right away. She kept me updated and asked/answered questions as needed. She even took the time to clean up after my dog with incontinence issues. And, lastly she added a sweet touch by putting out a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a note of appreciation. It was hard to leave my vacation, but coming home was great. I would recommend her.”
“Jade was awesome! My dog and cats really took to her. she was very attentive and courteous. She kept us updated everyday that we were gone. My pup was in great spirits when we got home!”
About: Hello, I Have alot of experience with dogs and would love to watch yours. My experience is with both puppies and dogs alike. I am a big dog lover! I currently own two socialized and well behaved dogs who love to meet others. I have a lot of experience watching dogs and have watched many different breeds with all kinds of personalities. If you would like me to walk them everyday, that is not an issue. Please feel free to send me a request. I am reliable, responsible, dependable, and can guarantee they will receive the love and exercise they need while you are away. I treat every dog who I watch as my own pup. I always make sure I give plenty of updates and send pictures throughout their stay so you know exactly how your dog/ dogs are doing. Your pup will receive constant care and attention. I always treat your dogs just like I would treat my own. Look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you. Right now Friday-Sunday can do some Monday as long as it is earlier on. Feel free to send a message so we can discuss more. If your dog is outside I am too. There is always supervision no dogs are left alone. I’ll be your pups BFF and treat your pet as my own.
About: I have lived with and cared for dogs most of my life, all of different breeds, but I am now a sole dog parent to two amazing, working breed (retired) senior dogs. I have learned so much over the years about responsible and safe care for dogs across the spectrum of ages, breeds and size. I am a business owner and a full-time pet parent, I generally have most availability throughout the week and work on the weekends. My fur children take their regular walks in the early evening, so I'm generally most available during the day and during the weekdays. I care for pets based on the preferences expressed by the client. All foundational care with a pet will always be with care, safety and treats.
“Caleb & Sara stayed over & cared for my little pack of pups, and cat couple with devotion. Kept me posted, sent pictures and made my time away, worry free❣️💕💕 Will ask for them again in a heartbeat!!”

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets & have grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve had a few puppies on my own and raised them since they were little.

Fed everyday on a schedule and our routine is to end the night with a treat for her doing great. Fenced yard and access to inside easily to stay cool. I try my best to always be mindful of my pets needs and set them up for success when we’re gone for more than a few hours.

“Katherine was fantastic, once again! She has taken wonderful care of our home, a very high maintenance dog, and two cats (one still a hyper kitten!) several times now. I recommend Katherine without reservation. She is responsible, reliable, neat, patient, and kind. Plus, she always takes GREAT photos of our pets ...”
About: I’m a huge animal lover. Currently a cat mom but have been a dog mom for many years. I’m extremely patient and lovable with pets so I’m definitely someone you can count on. Ideally I would like to do this full time. I only care for my cat and home so I currently am very open when it comes to availability. I have an indoor cat. She is spayed and fed a can of wet food every morning. I feed her dry food and check on her water too. Litter box gets cleaned every night and play time at least 15min a day along with cuddles and lots of attention throughout the day. I hope this gives you an idea of how I will care for your pets.
About: I spend lots of time with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I also take pride being a dog trainer apprentice in the making. I currently work full-time time at a dog ranch and would love to spend my days off with your pups! More tail-waggin fun for pups! I follow client instructions and care for their pups. From feeding, medication if needed, walking, playing, grooming, baths if needed, and spending quality time too.
“Absolutely wonderful, took such great care of Lila and she followed up with texts and pics that always help ease the slight anxiety that we "furry family members" have as we travel..well no need, Savannah is amazing..House looked great when I returned and she even remembered to water the plants that I completely forgot about!! Thank you again Savannah and Sarah too!! I have found my permanent house/pet sitter!!”
“Maria did a great job taking care of Abby. Abby had the best time. Maria sent me pictures and videos everyday. Which made my day. Maria took care of Abby like she would her own dog. I would definitely have her watch Abby again and I would definitely recommend her to watch someone else dog. She is great .”
About: I have always had a passion for dogs since I was a young girl!! I have pet sit for neighbors, family and friends, and also worked for a doggy day care as a playroom attendant for a year! Your pup will mean everything and I mean EVERYTHING to me!! I have plenty of time to pop in and check on your pup! During the school year I am full time on weekdays, but still have plenty of time to put your pup first! I am not able to keep pups at my home, but at a clients home during pop ins I am able to take the pup out (on leash for a walk or free range in a backyard if able!), snuggle your pup for as long as needed, and of course feed!! For house sitting, I prefer to do as many check ins as needed, but cannot stay overnight unless absolutely necessary. Caring for your pup will always be my top priority :)
About: Animals have been part of my life since the day I was born. Over the years I’ve cared for 12 dogs, 12 cats, birds, fish, and a bearded dragon through every stage of life, from newborn litters to senior pets. I’ve assisted with caring for pregnant dogs and cats, newborn puppies and kittens, senior pets, and animals recovering from illness or injury. I’ve given oral medications when needed, monitored pets closely, and provided patient, around the clock care while following veterinary guidance. One of my beloved companions lived to 22 years old, and another to 15, so I understand the extra patience and gentle attention senior pets deserve. While I’m not a veterinarian or professional trainer, I’m observant, calm, dependable, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine consistent. I know the importance of recognizing when something isn’t right and seeking veterinary care promptly. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. My own pets are part of my daily routine, so feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, cleaning, and making sure everyone is happy and healthy are second nature to me. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to plan my day around the pets in my care and keep their routines as consistent as possible. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn what helps each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe pets are happiest when their routines stay as normal and pleasant as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (when agreed upon), and any special routines that help them feel comfortable. I’ll make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and a clean, safe environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Hi my names Amber and I am a full time student who just moved to Temecula for my clinical rotation I am just now reactivating my rover account for some extra income. All pricing is negotiable, just trying to make some extra money as I’m currently only working twice a week and my boyfriend works from home so someone is always with the animals we care for during the week. I’ve done rover before and Love all animals and would love to care for yours like my own. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions :) and check out my reviews from the past. My dog pixie the little Chihuahua in my photos has unfortunately passed away aftee 15 years but my 7 year old corgi Roxy sure would LOVE the company. I currently work as a server and my shifts are usually only 4-5 hours long. Other than that I’m a home body who loves her shows and my boyfriend who will also be helping works from home. So someone is always with the pets. We will definitely have time for cuddles and naps or walks and playtime depending on what your dog or cat likes to do. I have no problem bathing walking playing or just hanging out. Whatever your dogs needs are.
“Amanda is amazing! This was the first time she watched our 2 dogs and cat and she made us feel very comfortable and confident that our pets would be safe and happy while we were gone. When we got home we could immediately tell that our pets were super happy and had been loved. She sent cute photos with all of them snuggled up on our couch....which we loved. Thanks Amanda! We are looking forward to having you watch our pets in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Cresta
Maria is an angel! We have wanted to take a vacation, but always put it off because we could not find someone that we trust leaving our boys with. And then we found Maria… wow! She is hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had! To start off with, Maria always messages us the day before to confirm times. She then messages when she is leaving her house and when she arrives. She provides updates with pictures and videos on a daily basis. We’ve never had anyone be so dependable and trustworthy. She is so patient and loving to our boys. They absolutely adore her and can’t wait to see her. Our oldest kept searching the house for her because he missed her. When we returned from our week long trip, our home was in immaculate conduit, like we had never left. Overall, we’ve truly been blessed to have found Maria. She is amazing to our boys and to us. We cannot thank her enough and can’t wait to book her again!
We were looking for a more local sitter since we moved. We were very nervous to trust anyone new with our fur baby and home. We are so very happy to have Maria stay at our home with our baby girl. Our 5yr pup was very happy with Payo and so are we. I was stressed at first but quickly found that Payo is a good match for our family. Thank you so very much for taking care of Abby! 😊
Sandra is an incredible pet sitter. She takes amazing care of our dogs, has excellent communication skills, and is very reliable. Our dogs are always so excited to see her and it is so nice to know they are in such great care when we are away. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!

FAQs for House Sitting - La Cresta
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in La Cresta on Rover is $87.69 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 4,610 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Cresta. 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 Cresta 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 Cresta 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 Cresta 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 Cresta. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
