“Lizette was fantastic. We were staying in Marina Del Rey for the weekend. She came to the hotel to watch over our two small dogs while we went to a concert. She was commutative and punctual and most of all very affectionate towards our little ones. Highly recommended.”
“Emily was amazing! It was our first time since moving to LA last summer having a pet sitter and we were gone for almost two weeks but Emily was so kind and communicative and left us at ease knowing our baby was safe and happy while we were away sending photos and updates along the way! Would definitely hire again 🩷”
“Hannah was amazing! This was a very last minute booking for our 4 mth old Mini Austrialian Sheppard Hank ( within a hour) and Hannah responded right away. She was great with his high energy and kept him very entertained throughout the evening. He slept so well he was worn out! I would call on Hannah again next time we need a sitter. I highly recommend her also!”
About: I currently care for my three dogs. My experiences includes raising and caring for newborn puppies, overnight dog sitting, administering oral medications, and caring for senior or recovering dogs. I understand that every dog has different routines and personalities, so I take the time to make each pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra rubs and cuddles, I acknowledge each and every one of those needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well beings. I'm currently available through the middle of September until I head back to school. I have a flexible schedule for walks, drop in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine since I have three dogs of my own. My days naturally revolve around feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and making sure each dog receives the attention they need. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I want to keep myself busy while making a bit of income before my summer is over :) Your pet's safety and comfort in your home are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I'm experienced caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. Whether your dog wants to play, go on walks, relax nearby while I work, or simply receive extra affection and reassurance, I'll provide patient, attentive care while keeping a close on your pup.
“Liz was great! She took great care of our golden retriever (and home) while we were traveling. She communicated with us each day, and we felt extremely comfortable knowing our dog was in her hands. We hope to use her again in the future!”
“Stephanie arrived on time when asked. She was extremely sweet and took great care of Miles while we were away. She was understanding of Miles’s separation anxiety and they were best friends in no time.”
“Gassia was absolutely wonderful!!! She was so sweet and communicative, and sent TONS of updates and photos of our little munchkins!!! She was so patient with them as they took a couple days to warm up, but kept us in the loop and even left a couple of packs of new wet food to try since they’ve been a little picky as of late. Could not recommend her more! She was such a doll and we look forward to booking with her again soon. :)”
About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys providing pets with attention, companionship, exercise, and a safe environment. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I also have experience with more unique pets and larger animals, as well as high-energy and active breeds that require extra exercise, structure, and engagement. I especially enjoy active dogs who love walks, hiking, playing, and exploring outdoors. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and always focused on making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, house rules, and any special requests from pet parents. My goal is to treat every pet like they are part of the family while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time outdoors, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I enjoy hiking, exploring nature, gardening, and staying active, which makes getting outside with dogs something I genuinely look forward to. I’m also comfortable spending quiet time with pets at home, whether that means relaxing, playing, keeping them company, or following their normal routine. I’m tech-savvy and organized, so I’m comfortable communicating with pet parents, keeping track of schedules, and providing updates and photos. I’ll work with each owner to make sure their pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, behavior, feeding schedule, and specific needs before providing care. During walks and outdoor activities, I stay attentive and make sure pets are supervised and kept secure at all times. I also have a background in security and have been vetted by high-profile clients, which has strengthened my awareness, responsibility, and attention to detail when it comes to safety and trust. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and keep the environment clean and safe. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a pet and access to your home, so I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet parents know how their pets are doing.
“I hope this review doesn’t lead to us not being able to book Neveah - our pups new best friend. Neveah dog sits in our home and is great with updates and very attentive to the needs of our pup. She puts our pup first, and knowing that while on vacation really makes vacation feel like vacation. She even leaves our house cleaner than how we left it. Thank you Neveah 🫶🏼”
“Natalie was great with my two dogs! She was very communicative and would check in frequently with updates and pictures. My dogs warmed up to her quickly and seems like they had a great weekend with her! I’ll definitely be asking Natalie back to watch my dogs whenever I’m out of town, would recommend her to any dog parent looking for a sitter!”
“Hannah was great! Super responsive from the get go, kept me updated throughout each day I was gone, and left my house exactly as I left it. Loved the daily photos so I could see my pup having a blast. Thanks, Hannah!”
“Austin was great with my 3 dogs. He was on time, always in communication, and my pack had a great time going on walks with him. Definitely will be booking with him again in the future!”
“Our little guy is a tough one and Sam did great! Reggie is a rescue with a lot of issues and needs medicine regularly. We’ve had other sitters get scared off and not able to give his medicine. Sam was a pro! And by the end of the week, they were actually friends! Def recommend and will use him again.”
“This was my first time leaving my cat overnight since adopting her a few years ago, so I was definitely a bit nervous but Katherine made the whole experience completely worry-free. She provided frequent updates and adorable photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and accommodating throughout. I also came home to a spotless house, exactly how I left it. I’m beyond grateful for the care she gave my cat and am absolutely certain I’ll be hiring her again for any future cat-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
“My dog seemed happy and healthy when we returned after 2.5 weeks. House was clean and tidy too. Michael seems nice and responsible, and is accommodating. I'd definitely recommend him.”
“Wow! Jeff did an incredible job taking care of my two dogs. I was away for three days, and my pups were truly in great hands. Every walk was completed, and I received numerous photos and updates; the communication was terrific 10/10. Jeff was thoughtful, patient, and incredibly accommodating, especially with one pup who has some special needs and likes to hide under the bed. I’m so grateful for the care and attention given to my girls. Will absolutely book again. Highly recommend- a fantastic dog sitter and person!!!! Thank you, Jeff!”
“Lauren and Journey went above and beyond for our pup Dorothy. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease because of the incredible communication and updates. We received so many adorable pictures and videos throughout the stay, and it was obvious our girl was having the best time! We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive to care for their pet. Thank you so much!”
“Riley is a warm and caring pet sitter! I knew my chihuahua was in good hands at the first meeting, and Riley's confidence and capability in handling my puppy was greatly reassuring. From the pictures, videos and updates it was clear my dog had a great time and felt very comfortable with Riley! So happy to have found her before my trip!”
About: I have always gravitated towards other people's pets and shown love and care for them as animals. I do not mind walking, feeding, clean up, or bathing them and I treat every animal as if I was looking after my own. I also have volunteer experience with the “LoveJoy” foundation, volunteering and helping with their dogs specifically. Lovejoy is a nonprofit in Westchester, CA that accepts volunteers to walk their dogs I want to give you the most time I can. Please let me know your schedule and I will work around you, not the other way around. I want to be accommodating. I have one dog at home that I love and treat as a sibling. You can expect the same when I engage with your pet. I can easily keep them entertained and happy, regardless of home and yard size.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Ladera Heights is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ladera Heights
WHAT A GEM! I reluctantly want to write our rating because she is truly wonderful and we want her all to ourselves! haha Kristen is incredibly professional, attentive and a wonderful communicator. She is everything we could have asked for and more. We had a dog recovering from a serious surgery with a list of meds and an elderly dog that needs attention, which she handled with absolute grace and confidence. A wonderful person who we look forward to working with again.
Amber was absolutely amazing! We felt so at ease knowing Lucy was in such great hands while we were away. She took such wonderful care of her and was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and communicative throughout our trip. She also took amazing care of our home and left everything spotless. It’s such a relief to have someone you completely trust with both your dog and your home. We came back to a very happy Lucy and a perfectly cared-for house. We couldn’t recommend Amber more and will absolutely be reaching out to her again! ❤️
Julia was amazing! She looked after our one year old golden retriever Clementine for three days. She gave us plenty of updates and responded quickly when we checked in. Clementine still has some of that puppy energy and excitement and Julia handled that so well. Clem loved her and we’ll definitely book again!
Stephanie took excellent care of our house and Kitty Wompas! We came home to a happy and healthy cat and a clean and tidy house. Kitty Wompas is diabetic and requires insulin shots twice a day, and although Stephanie had not administered insulin before she took the time to come over and learn the process and followed all directions perfectly. I highly recommend her.
Hannah took such wonderful care of Milo while I was away. She gave me regular updates and was great about sending pictures. He stepped the wrong way while walking by himself in my yard and she got him the care he needed for what ended up being just a sprain. She expertly administered a growing list of meds, even when he tried to evade the pill pockets or other methods of disguise. Huge peace of mind knowing that he was with her while I was away. I can't recommend her enough. We are so very grateful to have her!
Val was so caring, thoughtful, and resourceful with my anxious dog, Lucy. I really appreciated how communicative Val was, and how much time and energy she put into figuring out ways to put Lucy at ease. I would be eager to hire Val again and highly recommend her!
Andriana and Adam were a total dream! We feel so lucky to have found them. They’re newer to the platform, but from the very beginning they were warm, thoughtful, communicative, and clearly wonderful with dogs. They were punctual for our meet-and-greet, asked great questions, and really took the time to understand our girls’ routines, personalities and little quirks. They’re used to raising and training bigger dogs, but were incredibly gentle with our two little ones. Foxy can be sensitive with new people and took to them almost immediately, which made me feel so comfortable. Andriana listened so attentively while I talked through everything, while Adam patiently sat and let the dogs come over, inspect him, and get comfortable at their own pace. It’s always a little hard leaving your dogs with new people, but once I left, I felt completely at ease. While we were away, they sent the cutest photos and updates, followed all of our feeding, walking, and house instructions, and clearly spent time actually getting to know the dogs. Adam even got curious about Foxy’s breed mix, did some research, and sent me what he found, which was so fun and sweet. Nothing unexpected came up during the stay, but after getting to know Andriana and Adam, I have no doubt they would have handled anything calmly and capably. They also took amazing care of our home. Everything was exactly as we left it, and they even washed the towels and duvet cover for us, which was completely unnecessary but so thoughtful. Adam is also an artist and surprised us with a painting of our front porch, a space I love, which I’ll absolutely be framing. It was such a personal and generous gesture and really captured the kind of care they brought to the whole stay. We came home to two very happy, relaxed pups and a perfectly cared-for house. I would welcome them back in a heartbeat and recommend them without hesitation. They’re kind, responsible, attentive people who genuinely love animals, and any pet would be lucky to have them! They were kind, responsible, attentive, and an absolute pleasure to have here.
Tracy was so great with Bentley! I always get a little nervous leaving him when I’m away, but I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of him. She was so sweet and attentive with him, and I loved getting updates while I was gone. Bentley seemed so happy and comfortable when I got home, which says a lot! I’m so grateful to have someone I trust to look after him and would definitely have Tracy watch him again.
Piper was wonderful! She was very friendly and Ozzy took to her quickly. I loved that she sent us lots of updates about how Ozzy was doing and also let me know her schedule for the day if she had to leave for a bit. We came back to our place very tidy, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. Thank you so much!!
Kimberly was an exceptional furbaby sitter while we were out of the country! She was incredibly attentive, loving, and caring with our babies, and she sent us pictures and updates every day, which gave us such peace of mind. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our vacation knowing they were happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. Our babies absolutely adored her! They even slept in the bed with her, which brought them so much warmth, comfort, and joy. They became so attached that they followed her around the house like the paparazzi! 😂🐾 Kimberly was also incredibly clean and respectful of our home. 🏠 We returned to everything beautifully cared for and just as we had left it. Having someone you can trust not only with your precious fur babies, but also with your home, is priceless 😍🥰! Thank you, Kimberly 💕😊 We truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our babies. Kimberly treated them like they were her own, and we are so grateful for all the love, attention, and care she gave them. We would absolutely trust her with our babies and our home again without hesitation. We highly recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a loving, dependable, trustworthy, and respectful pet sitter! ❤️🐾
Sarah is absolutely amazing with my dog, Ziggy! I left for a quick cruise, and knowing he was in her care gave me so much peace of mind. She was incredibly communicative, sent thoughtful updates throughout my trip, and captured the sweetest photos of Ziggy that made me smile every day. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found Sarah and will absolutely book with her again. It’s such a relief knowing my pup is in the most caring and capable hands whenever I’m away. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Ladera Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ladera Heights on Rover is $62.16 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 14,042 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ladera Heights. 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 Ladera 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 Ladera 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.
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 Ladera 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 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 Ladera Heights. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
