“Amy watched our house and took care of Blue throughout the entire Christmas holiday, and she did a wonderful job. She was very communicative whenever we reached out, regularly sent us pictures of Blue, and kept us informed of anything important. She was incredibly sweet, easy to work with, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, 10/10!”
About: Former animal health student with hands on knowledge of pet care and safety. I've had dogs my entire life and am comfortable with different breeds and sizes. I love spending time with new fur buddies while getting my steps in! I currently work part time and am available early mornings and evenings. Most weekends I am available all day. My schedule is pretty flexible depending on client's needs. I prioritize the safety and well being of every dog. I watch for signs of stress or discomfort and ensure dogs are hydrated and comfortable. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they enjoy their walks!
“Lisa was great and obviously cares about animals. We couldn’t be happier with her services and will have her over again next time we travel! She’s a great person and I highly recommend her.”
“Hunter did an excellent job. He was communicative and responded immediately every time I contacted him. He sent me pictures frequently keeping me updated on my doggy’s status. He informed me before he was leaving the house to eat and was never gone for an extended period of time. He was able to coerce her up the stairs when she decided to not allow him to pick her up and sent me a video with the progress! Then he figured out how to lift her onto the bed for bedtime! This was the first time that I used a pet sitter and am glad I found Rover.com (it was easy to find them!) and was hooked up with Hunter. I would definitely use Hunter again and highly recommend him as your next pet sitter. Thank you, Hunter and best of luck with veterinary school 🙂”
About: I specialize in adaptability. I do my best to meet your pet where they’re at in terms of energy level and follow their routine so as to keep them feeling loved and content while you’re away. Whether they want to be spoiled with attention or just have a peaceful lap on which to doze, I’m here to be your emotional support friend’s emotional support friend Providing pet care on Rover helps me fill in my part-time work to provide for my family, including my own sweet little fur baby My main goal caring for your pet at their home is to keep their routine and environment as consistent as it can be with your absence. I believe the best way to minimize a pet’s stress response to a change in their environment is to try to keep everything around that change as familiar as possible.
“Letitia did an excellent job of house sitting with Dash, our English Setter. He can be a handful. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Letitia also sent us photos and updates on how Dash was doing.”
“We highly recommend Degan! This is the second time we've had her watch our cats. She takes great care of them and the house. She is reliable, diligent, and caring. When we return, our kitties are always happy. We can tell that she has given them lots of love and play time!”
“If I could leave 10 stars for Amirah, I would! She communicates very quickly, her personality is so incredibly sweet and helpful, her voice is pure puppy love!! even though we booked last minute because the other person fell through Amirah was ready and so easy to work with. She put us at ease just a few days before our trip. She did a meet and greet was very flexible with the schedule. She offered additional perks, brought doggy snacks, and toys. Sent me pictures and videos and just went above and beyond. I told my friend about her service and without even vetting her , wants to use her for our next trip ! thank you so much Amirah you made it possible for us to relax and not worry about the dogs. I got to enjoy myself because I could see how happily the dogs followed you out for walks. Normally we have to beg and plead for them to go outside for a walk, but we could see they followed with tails wagging. Till we meet again! Do not hesitate, and if you’re on the fence and want additional feedback about Amirah please reach out”
“As always, Michelle took great care of Frogger. I really appreciate all of the pictures and videos as well as the way she adjusted his food to make sure he was eating. Thank you!!”
About: I worked for a pet boarding and daycare so I’m optimistic I can provide the best care for your furry family members! My skills start with tending to pet clients needs, group play for daycare and for boarding, as well as individual play for special dogs. Feedings in am and pm as well as lunches for specific clients. Picking up and cleaning spills, fecal, and other messes. Dishes and laundry and overall tending to the cleanliness of the facility. I have faith if I can handle 60+ pets I can handle anything! I provide pet care services solely through Rover. I currently have full availability, so I am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet's specific needs. I follow client instructions to ensure the comfort and care of their little fur family. I know it can be hard being apart from their owner so I always try to give them extra love to provide comfort and reassurance!
“Hermes was so awesome with our (challenging) dog and two cats! He watched them for two weeks and sent lots of updates and pics while we were on vacation. Our pets absolutely loved him and we felt really secure knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. My background includes basic obedience training, administering medications, and providing calm, consistent care for anxious pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, focusing on their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether it’s a walk, overnight stay, or special-needs care, I make sure your pet feels loved and secure while you’re away. Taking care of a pet is an important part of daily and weekly life. On a daily basis, pet care includes feeding, providing fresh water, and spending some time playing or exercising with your pet to keep them happy and healthy. Regular check-ins allow you to notice any changes in their behavior or health. Weekly routines often involve deeper care, such as grooming, bathing, cleaning living areas, and restocking supplies like food and toys. These activities help maintain your pet’s hygiene and overall well-being. Integrating pet care into your routine not only ensures your pet’s health but also strengthens the bond between you and your furry (or not-so-furry) friend. Caring for pets requires attention, compassion, and adapting to each pet’s unique needs. Whether the pet is in your own home or at a client’s home, the goal is to ensure their comfort, safety, and happiness. In Your Own Home: You provide a familiar and loving environment where pets receive consistent care. This includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, grooming, and monitoring their health. You can tailor activities based on each pet’s personality and preferences, creating a stable routine that promotes their well-being. In a Client’s Home: Caring for pets at a client’s home means respecting the pet’s environment and the owner’s instructions. You follow established routines for feeding, exercise, medication, and social interaction to maintain the pet’s comfort and reduce stress. Being attentive and responsive to the pet’s behavior helps build trust and ensures they feel safe while their owner is away. In both settings, communication with pet owners is key to understanding specific needs and preferences, allowing you to provide the best possible care.
About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from small pups to big dogs! I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs.

I’ll also keep you updated with regular check-ins and plenty of pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is in good hands!
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a special love for caring for them.

About: I come from a genuine position of wanting to understand how the animal is feeling and what is motivating their behavior. I have experience with cats and dogs from growing up with them and from pet sitting as a kid. I also worked at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with the animals such as pigs, chickens, ducks, and goats. I treat all animals with compassion and care. They are like children in that they each have unique personalities, and deserve autonomy, while at the same time needing to be cared for and protected. I am always learning about how to better communicate with animals and understand their needs. From watching videos to taking classes and reading books, I seek out new perspectives on animal behavior because it is an ever-changing field of study A couple years ago, when my dog started peeing in the house, punishment was not on my mind, I could see from her body language that she felt bad and wasn't doing it on purpose so I had her checked out and learned it was a medical problem not a behavioral one. This is the type of care I will bring to your pets. I'm currently working part-time with flexible hours so I'll be able to stop by multiple times or even stay with your pet for hours or days. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighbors. I am respectful of other people's homes, I leave things the way I find them and do my best to understand the unique needs, routines and personality of every animal.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I am a responsible and dependable animal lover who understands that pets are an important part of the family. I grew up on a farm with several animals. I have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, and other furry friends, which has given me a good understanding of animal behavior. This experience taught me the importance of how animals have different needs and personalities. Therefore, I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and needs. So, I understand the importance of following instructions regarding feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and any special care. I work from home, and I can keep an eye on your pet while working. However, If this is an issue, I fully understand. I am available after 5 PM for my full attention. I am available overnights on Thursdays and free most of Fridays. I will do my best to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide dependable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I will follow all household instructions, respect your home, and contact you immediately if I notice any changes in your pet’s behavior or health.
About: I had male husky growing up, fostered a female pit bull and rescued a 2 year old toy poodle. They have brought me so much joy through hikes, beach trips, and play dates with friends. I am excited to learn more about every pets unique personality especially through walking and playing time. Your pets will be in a safe and tidy environment with me. It would be extremely helpful to me if you can provide me with any information about your pet to allow them the most exciting and fun experience when they are with me. Hope to meet your furry friends very soon. I currently work hybrid and only go in person a few times a week. My days are flexible for house sitting, lots of long walks, potty breaks. I frequently accompany my neighbors and friends pets whenever they needed. Owners will leave me instructions for feeding, exercise and play time. For my poodle, we normally go on 3 walks a day, but now with the heat wave, she’s limited to two walks, early morning and evening. During the day, she’s kept busy with puzzle games and mental stimulation!
About: We’re a fun, family home with lots of love to give! Your pup will enjoy playtime, snuggles, and a cozy environment where they’re treated like one of our own. I believe in gentle care, clear communication and making sure you feel comfortable while you’re away Because I work part-time and my husband works from home, there is consistent supervision in our house. Pet care easily fits into our daily rhythm. we’re already used to giving lots of love and attention. Feedings when scheduled.Your pet would be part of our normal family life, not left alone for long stretches. In our home, pets become part of our family’s daily routine. I keep feeding schedules consistent with what they’re used to, provide supervised playtime, outdoor patio breaks, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or shy and need a quieter space. Safety is very important to me, so all interactions with my children and our cat are gentle and supervised, and pets are never left outside unattended. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Verne
Leaving my dogs for the first time was so hard but Rachel helped make it so smooth! We met a couple times before the appointment and she kept in touch the entire time with texts, pics and videos which helped calm this furmamas anxiety. Will definitely be using again for future travels and other fur baby needs
Isabella was amazing. She took care of my 14 year old Maltese, Mochi while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. She kept me updated and sent pictures. Isabella is sweet, friendly and very responsible. I will definitely be using her services in the future. Thank you!!
Kellar was an amazing sitter. We were out of the country for two weeks, and unfortunately our AC broke during a heat wave. While we were away, Kellar closely monitored the temperature in our home using a remote thermometer and kept us updated throughout the situation. Kellar also worked with us to develop a contingency plan for relocating our two dogs, bearded dragon, and tortoise if the house became too hot. Thank you, Kellar, for truly going above and beyond to ensure our animal companions stayed safe, comfortable, and well cared for. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and caring hands.
Zoe was an amazing house sitter for our two boys. We have one elderly dog that is very specific about how he likes his day run and a middle aged dog with separation anxiety; both require medication. Zoe was in communication sharing update and photos and I felt at ease that they were in good hands. She was able to keep them on their routines and the boys looked so happy in the photos she shared with me. When I got home the boys were calm and clearly had good time with Zoe. I would absolutely work with Zoe again. She very responsive, reliable, and asked questions to clarify as needed. Zoe took such great care of my boys!
Jade did a great job of taking care of our dog, Lily, while we were on vacation out of the country. She was very responsive and sent us pictures daily. She left our home in great condition as well. Our pup was excited to see us when we returned, but not overly excited, which made it clear that she was well taken care of and well entertained while we were gone. We would definitely recommend Jade to other pet owners and plan to hire her again in the future!
Melanie was wonderful with our dogs! She made sure they were well cared for and got plenty of playtime, and we loved getting photos and videos multiple times a day — it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. She's warm, caring, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for dogsitting!
It was a good experience with Hunter. Good things are that he is easy to communicate with, reliable, and knowledgeable about dogs. I could feel his passion for studying to become a vet, and he has a strong sense of professionalism toward animals. He did everything we asked for, sending many cute photos and videos. We could see how our dog was doing. He was on time, and responses were immediate. The room and backyard were kept clean. I appreciate it not only for taking care of our dog. I’m willing to ask about taking care of our dog next time if we have any chance. Our senior dog liked him well. I guess he missed Hunter the following day because he didn't see him.
Tanya was amazing with our kids! She was conscientious in our home, and asked clarifying questions to ensure she was adhering to our routines. Our animals are all older and she was able to make sure they were comfortable and got extra love while we were away.
Jennifer was amazing with our dog over Memorial Day weekend! She was attentive, responsive, and kept us updated the entire time! She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond by getting our dog new toys. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such great hands. We highly recommend Jennifer and look forward to the next time she can babysit our dog!
Myra was able to handle my crazy calicos and my chinchilla with no problem! I have yet to find a pet sitter who is so detailed, care oriented, and well versed in exotic pets. She even gave my cats a nice groom! My medium haired looks fluffier than ever :). As for my chinchilla, I usually have to sweat over the fact that people have never even seen one before. She knew exactly what to feed him, pet him, clean his cage, and he was the calmest I’ve ever see him post trip. Left the apartment and litter boxes immaculate! Will be booking again.
Shanise took such good care of my 2 kittens and sent great updates and photos while I was away! She is knowledgeable, responsive, and got along really well with my babies. Even my shy kitten ended up loving her! I would definitely rebook with Shanise in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in La Verne is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $99 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 November 2026, there are 11,897 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across La Verne. 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 Verne 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 Verne 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 Verne 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 Verne. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
