“Britney was amazing house sitting with Cleo. She followed all directions and requests and was very communicative. There was an issue when a construction crew broke a gas main near my home, and the police came to the door saying residents needed to evacuate! I was a wreck but Britney was so calm and collected and kept me updated. Most importantly, she kept herself and my pup safe! I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you are nervous leaving your dog like I am!”
“Tracy was absolutely wonderful! Our pets loved her and she took great care of both them and our home. She left our home clean and even took care of an ant infestation we had while we were away! She sent us updates with pictures of how the pets were doing while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent sitter for their pets!”
“Angela is amazing! She houses sat and watched my Honey for 3 days while we were out of town. She kept us updated morning and night and sent lots of photos. Thank you Angela for spoiling our baby.”
“Tyler was amazing with my dogs! She house sat for my 2 large dogs (one of them being reactive) for a whole week! She followed all the instructions that we gave her. We had specific instructions to keep our dogs seperate from each other because we had never left them before and were worried about how my reactive dog would act towards our other dog while we were away. We are so grateful for her!”
“Jade was phenomenal house sitting for my dog! It was a short notice, long weekend stay she was able to accommodate for nicely, and was even able to stay an extra night when my flight home was delayed. Communication was great and I recieved many pictures of Daisy enjoying herself (and treats) while I was away!”
“Maggie took great care of our pups while we were on vacation for 5 days. She walked them daily gave them lots of love and provided lots of photos and communication. We will definitely hire her in the future. Thank you Maggie!”
“Alexis was absolutely wonderful with the dogs, on time, and very reliable. We maintained excellent communication before, and while he looked after our pets. Alexis was very accommodating, pleasant, respectful, trustworthy, and would choose him 100000% every time I would need to trust someone to look after my fur babies. Very, very happy ???”
“We were SO grateful to have found Chloe. She is a great “baby”-sitter. She sent us so many cute pictures of the girls. Our girls were very comfortable with her. We had them with another sitter recently (and our dogs came back very stressed). With Chloe, we came back to happy healthy dogs! Lots of pictures of our anxious girl who doesn’t trust anyone else sleeping her usual “belly up” position which she only does when she feels safe. And a few sweet cuddle photos just after a day. On a practical note - she respected our house & our boundaries which was very appreciated. Followed all the routines. Took them on walks. We are very picky & we have full faith that you can trust her with your pets 😊”
“Veronica was so sweet, communicative and sent SO MANY photos of my dog which i really appreciate! I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a fun, communicative and overall wonderful sitter!”
“amy is so wonderful! she bailed us out at the last minute for a daylong sitting for two very elderly dogs (one of which is extremely high maintenance), complete with meds! the house was immaculate and i know she had to clean up after them! thank you, amy!!!”
“Holly was the perfect house sitter for Lucy. She has a very calm and soft demeanor and Lucy was comfortable with her in no time at all. Holly was very attentive and responsive throughout the whole process and I was comfortable knowing I could reach her easily. I would definitely ask Holly to watch Lucy again and would highly recommend her to others looking for a trusted carer for their pets.”
About: I have years of personal experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, with a deep understanding of senior dog care and daily routines. My home is safe, attentive, and welcoming. I treat every visiting pet like family, ensuring they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. I am available throughout the week to provide constant attention, regular feeding, play, and long walks. I provide a clean, quiet, and safe home environment for all pets. Safety is my top priority, so I strictly follow all owner instructions for feeding, routines, and leash safety during outdoor walks.
“Jacqueline took excellent care of the house and pets. Followed all instructions perfectly. Pets were happy! She left the house cleaner and tidier than she found it, too. Very pleased.”
About: I have had a dog since my first memory up until 3 years ago we lost our 3rd family dog. I have 3 years of experience walking dogs and about a year of training experience at a doggy daycare. I understand what pets need and the care they deserve from everyday operation at the facility I work at. I acquired a B.S. in Animal Science from Cal Poly Pomona to strengthen my understanding of animal health and welfare. I’m currently working towards my trainers certification, which is done at home at my own pace. I have an empty and free schedule to dedicate all my time to giving your best friend a positive experience!!! I have a 10 foot high fence and 8 foot surrounding barriers. My yard can accommodate 5-6 large dogs for them to run around and play comfortably. I also take dogs on 15-30 minute walks giving them opportunities to sniff and explore their environment just like they were meant to!
About: Hi there! I am currently a student studying vet medicine. I’ve been working with all types of animals for 6 years now. I do work part time as a vet tech and would love to pet sit, take your furry friend for walks and give them loads of love! I have plenty experience caring for dogs and cats, I am very passionate about caring for animals and hope to open my own doggy daycare one day! I sometimes foster kittens but do not have any right now. If it says I am unavailable please ask and I can try to accommodate. I look forward to meeting you and any type of pets you have. I am comfortable caring for all types of animals, just let me know! :)
About: I have an intimate knowledge of pets and all animals. I have nurtured many abandoned and stray dogs and cats and have found them safe and loving homes. I am reliable, trustworthy, honest, and communicative. I am physically fit and am a US Army veteran. I currently own a beautiful Corgi mix that was abandoned and ran over by a car. After the amputation i adopted her. She is the sweetest little girl! I also currently feed and assist with finding loving homes for other abandoned animals in the area. I am reliable, honest, and trustworthy. I am physically fit. I live in Brea. I am a US Army veteran. I have a drivers license and a clean background. I have lots of patience and love for all pets! I’m an excellent pet communicator.
About: Hello! My name is Layla and I am currently a full-time college student with extra time on my hands, my schedule can be extremely flexible on the days that I am available. I feel being a pet sitter suits me because a. I love animals, b. I’m very attentive and organized, and c. Earning a wage by hanging out/taking care of your fur babies sounds like a dream! I currently have two big dogs and one cat that I care for almost every day. I take the dogs for walks, play fetch with them, and take them out to go potty. I love spoiling my cat with new stimulating toys, cat trees, and lots of cuddles 🥰 I’m currently a full-time student with some spare time, a part-time job seems too much for me to handle while also engaging in school. I adore animals and it would be amazing to earn money while spending time and caring for them 🥲 A list offered of how you want me to care for your pet is preferred. I understand pets can have different quirks and I’m totally adaptable to anything that’s thrown at me. I love animals and their unique personalities! I’d like to follow your routine to care for your animal, just like you never left!
“Amber was very responsive and was great with our pets. She kept me posted on how they were doing. I felt very much at ease with her staying at my house and keeping my animals company. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I enjoy dogs, and have worked in a boarding setting. I am playful, loving, energetic, attentive, and am also an early childhood educator! By the time you get home, your dog will be tuckered out and at peace. I am very understanding and patient. I LOVE being outside, so your pup will have the most fun! I am self-employed so my schedule is open in the afternoons or weekends. I used to own a boxer, so I’m familiar with a dog’s routine. Please let me know your requirements or any information that may help care for your pet in the best most efficient and familiar way, so they feel safe and loved while you’re away from them.

I’ve trusted Linda multiple times with my 8 cats and home. She is attentive to detail, sweet, kind and respected my home. I will be rebooking with her in the future and recommend to anyone reading this review. Thank you Linda! Neil, Kurt, Mario, Binko Bear, Sonic, Lucy, Charlie and Federico say hello and thank you for all the cuddles, treats, and pets 🥹❤️🐈⬛
Tracy is a treasure. She was a terrific caregiver, companion, BFF, and all around great sport for our very active Doberman pinscher. We so appreciated her attentiveness, kindness and willingness to engage and play with Samson. We highly recommend her and plan to use her again.
We had a fantastic experience with Lauren, who stayed in our home for a full week. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for while we were away. We loved receiving regular updates and photos—it gave us so much peace of mind. Our home was left clean and well cared for, and communication was excellent from start to finish. It was clear our dogs were treated with genuine care and attention. We have had several past bookings with Lauren and have several more booked in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable Rover sitter.
Katya did a nice job . She had good rapport with Cassidy as well as taking good care of her.She also took care of my tortoise. She left the house clean and tidy. I really appreciated the care she took of my senior dog with the intricate feeding schedule I have for her.

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 Habra Heights 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 Habra Heights 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Habra Heights 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.
