“We had a wonderful experience with Dorothy! She was communicative, punctual, attentive, and so loving with Bumblebee. It gave us peace of mind knowing Bumblebee was in such caring hands. We really appreciated the great care she provided and would absolutely hire her again. Highly recommend!”
About: Over 30 years of pet care experience! I’m the type of person that stops by the side of the road to save a lost animal. My dog is a swimmer, not a walker! I work from home, but have a very flexible schedule. Definitely looking for a morning walker and am open for home drop ins otherwise. Safety is key, it is summer right now so pets should be indoors most the day. Early morning or late evening walks are best. Check the ground temperature and do not walk your dogs when its hot!
“Kyla did an excellent job taking care of our dogs while we were away. She was very quick to respond and asked great questions to prepare herself for our dogs needs. We appreciate you Kyla!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life! I’ve been around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from little puppies to older dogs. My grandma also fostered dogs, so I was always surrounded by them growing up! I have 4 years of pet-sitting experience, but I’ve also grown up taking care of our own dogs my whole life. people always tell me how much their dogs love me! I absolutely adore animals and would treat your fur babies like my own! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule since most of my classes are online! I’m available all day Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I have in-person classes Tuesday and Thursday but can discuss morning or evening visits. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I’ll always follow their normal routine, respect your home, and give them plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you know your fur baby is in good hands!
“Ashley was great with our two girls! She kept us updated with pictures and even got them out on a hike. The house was clean and our plants were all still alive too. Will definitely use her again!”
About: Throughout the years, I have always naturally bonded with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have dedicated much of my life to caring for pets, starting from the time I was young when family and neighbors relied on me for daily feeding, walking, and playtime. Whether your dog needs gentle senior companionship, patient routine maintenance, or a fun play session, I ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and deeply loved while you are away. My partner and I work together to maintain a highly flexible routine, ensuring your pets always receive plenty of attention. Between the two of us, we are readily available throughout weekdays and weekends for reliable check-ins, timely feedings, and continuous companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. As a team, my partner and I provide attentive, gentle supervision while strictly following all of your house and care instructions. Having two dedicated caregivers means your pet gets extra care, secure monitoring, and regular photo updates.
“Lacee was everything we were looking for in a house sitter and a dog sitter. She is reliable, responsible, and a proactive communicator. She took great care of our 3 active dogs and kept us informed. I highly recommend her and will use her services again.”
“Brandie you are amazing! Mishka and Nuggy had a great time with you. The home looks better than how we left it. Loved the daily videos/picture check ins. Hope to book you again in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our pups, Ragnar and Rollo, received over the weekend! From the moment we met, it was clear they were in great hands. Daily updates and photos gave us total peace of mind, and it was obvious the boys were relaxed, happy, and well loved. Everything was handled with care—feeding, walks, playtime, and even a little extra attention to their quirks. We came home to two very content dogs and a spotless house. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Bella caring for our senior dog while we were away for 10 days. She was dependable, caring, and attentive to our girl’s routine and special needs, and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us such peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a clean and orderly house, which we really appreciated! We are so grateful to Bella for taking such good care of our girl and our home. We would absolutely trust her with our senior dog again and highly recommend her!”
“Melanie did a wonderful job taking care of my dog and cat and my home while I was in the hospital. She provided updates each day, which was much appreciated. You can tell she really loves animals, and my pets loved her too. I will not hesitate to request Melanie to care for my babies next time I’m in need of someone to care for my pets.”
“Marika was an excellent dog and house sitter during a two week stay while we were abroad. She was flexible and able to adapt to interruptions such as a power outage. Communication skills were excellent! She is a compassionate and understanding person. Our sweet old girl pug was well taken care of and happy and healthy upon our return. We highly recommend Marika for your pet sitting needs.”
“Malarie is so great! We’ve had her stay twice now with our 6 and 1/2 year old chocolate lab and have been super happy with her care of our pup, our home, and she is a great communicator. We have a pretty lengthy list of ways we like to make sure our dogs care is handled, as well as the use of our home, and Malarie has followed everything, and gone above and beyond keeping our home clean and our pup happy. We already have her booked for the future for several stays and definitely want to continue using her! Definitely recommend her.”
“Mariah did a wonderful job house sitting for our two dogs and three cats for the weekend. Thank you for taking good care of our fur babies. She sent updates and pictures to keep us informed on how everything was going. We wouldn't hesitate to have Mariah take care of our girls again. Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I enjoy running long distances so walking pets is no problem! I’m currently a graduate student and as a result my availability is quite flexible. You can expect your pet to be safe and under gentle care when they board with me. I’m currently on summer break from graduate school so I’ll have plenty of time to fit in boarding or walking through the day. My availability is quite flexible and I can usually work out any service in advance. Weekends are generally free! I have 3 cats that are quite friendly with other pets and tend to keep to themselves. Your pet should expect a comfortable experience with enrichment toys, long walks, and frequent availability for bathroom breaks. We are able to crate medium to small dogs if needed.
“Ember was an amazing sitter! She was prompt, and even a little bit early on arrival. That meant a lot to me, because promptness is important to me. She was very attentive to the dogs and enjoyed being with them. She sent us pictures every day and updated us in the evening if we hadn’t communicated during the day. She followed all of the guidelines that I had set out, and even went over and beyond. The house was perfectly spotless when we got home and the pups were happy. We will definitely be having Ember back again. I would highly recommend anyone else hiring her for a sit.”
About: Animals are my passion in life! I have rescued and worked with dogs & cats for the last 20+ years. I have tons of experience dog walking, pet sitting, caring for pets with medical needs, fostering dogs and cats, pet rescue, etc. I have three large dogs; I can handle large breeds, pets with behavior challenges, pets needing medical treatment, and everything in between! My schedule is completely open for your fur babies. Weekdays & weekends are free. I can be available multiple times a day, or overnight stays at your home. Early morning to late night. I take safety extremely seriously; I always take precautionary measures to make sure that I am not risking the safety of your pets or myself. It's important that I get to know your pet(s) very well; animals can be unpredictable so it is my responsibility to minimize risks as much as possible. I'm very respectful and clean when it comes to your home. I can do feedings, walks, medical treatments, overnight stays, or simply keep your loved ones company.

We have used Kyla's service for in home dog sitting already twice now and are very happy. We had an amazing experience with her and our dog looks happy and well taken care of. She sends timely pictures and keeps us posted with everything. Will book her again anytime :)
Victoria was awesome! She is prompt with her responses during the initial contact phase and continued that trend while she took care of my two dogs. My family and I went out of town for 10 days and she sent pictures and updates about our dogs and ensured they were well taking care of during our vacation. She is professional, kind, and very trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone that wants their animals well cared for and the peace of mind her professional and passionate nature brings to her job.
Sabrina is absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend her services. My animals loved having her stay at the house, and she gave them so much attention, care, and love. They looked very content and relaxed in all the pics. Thank you for everything, Sabrina. The pups and Archie can't wait to see you again very soon!
Deanna was such a great house / pet sitter for our two labs. She was so communicative and sent tons of update pictures of my dogs throughout the stay. My house was cleaner than when we left it and the dogs were so well taken care of. We will definitely book with her again!
We are so grateful to Sarah for her thoughtful care of Remi and our house. Remi got her long walks everyday - even in the pouring rain! Great daily updates to keep us posted. The house was very well cared for and in perfect order when we got home. We will very gladly have Sarah back anytime!
Came home to a very relaxed and happy little dog. Ashley left our home exactly how we left it, and there were no issues during her stay… it was very cold and snowed during the weekend and we felt safe having her here just in case(never know with these cold snaps) we will absolutely have her back to hang with our snuggly little Frida. Thank you, Ashley! Oh, and she brought in packages and shoveled out front, a nice welcome home on my Birthday.

FAQs for House Sitting - La Cresta Village
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in La Cresta Village is $45 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $109 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 October 2026, there are 2,553 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Cresta Village. 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 Village 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 Village 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 Village 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 La Cresta Village. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
