“Great communication with us and sending pictures. We were at ease knowing my babies were taken care of. My hyper anxiety dog took right to her so did my unsocial cat. That says a lot.”
“Rosemarie came to visit us and meet Lulu before the dog sitting date, which was very nice as they got acquainted with each other. On Thanksgiving Day Rosemarie arrived early and begin bonding with Lulu right away. We weee gone for a long time. Rosemarie fed and walked with Lulu. She sent us photos and even spent time cuddling with Lulu. We would definitely recommend Rosemarie and have no reservations about using her in the future as well as recommending to others. Thank you, Rosemarie!”
About: I've grown up around cats and dogs my whole life, so I am very used to being around them. I love dogs but I do feel I have a close affinity with cats more. Either way they are both great to love on. I'm currently working from home right now so I have plenty of time to spend with the fur kids. I'm currently available whenever needed as long as its reasonable, and of course schedules will change the more work I take on. We have a big fenced backyard for any animals to run around it. And a dog a 2 cats that are totally fine around others. Especially the dog who would love any new friend.
About: My ultimate goal and promise is to provide the safety and love for your pets as if you were still home. I know how worrisome it may be while you're at work or on vacation to wonder how your pet is doing and if they're receiving the care they deserve and i'm here to eliminate all worries. I have grown up and owned many animals ranging from dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and hamsters. I can confidently go on long walks or even be a cuddle buddy. Working part time on the weekends, I have almost my whole day during the week to take care of your fur babies. A bonus to the sad fact I don't currently have any pets of my own at the moment, my home and large backyard is free for your pet's comfortability. I grew up training my dog in 4-H and have raised puppies as well as kittens. I work part time on the weekends so I am free during the week to care for your pets if you are at work or on vacation. I have a fenced backyard and no other pets in my home. I will care for and clean up after your pet whether they are in your home or mine. I live walkable distance to parks and dog parks.
About: I’m a law student with a background fostering, training, and walking dogs at the Elk Grove Animal Shelter and Santa Cruz SPCA. I’ve lived with and loved dogs my entire life and would be happy to help out with anyone and everyone’s pups! I am at school during the day most week days, but contribute what time I have at home to spending as much time around animals as I can. I keep a close eye on their mannerisms and comfortability. Parents will know their pet best, so I keep their input at the front of my mind and otherwise allow my experience with animals guide their care.
About: My pet care history is broad from cats to dogs. My childhood dog required senior care due to obesity and deformities. I’ve had outdoor cats as well as tending to neighbors cat feedings when away to avoid critters getting to food. Recently house sat for senior cat. And I’ve cared for mother and pups from birth to age. I am available mostly evenings and weekends. As early as 3 pm depending on distance. Weekends allow for long hours. I currently take care of a child during the week day till 2:30. How I take care of your dog will depend on how you request, the breed and needs of the dog. Cats are the same situation, however due to my allergy I may decline connections with needy cats.
About: I promise to treat your dog just like it's my own. I have always been a huge animal lover and an even bigger lover of dogs. Your dog will have fun playing with toys and getting lots of attention during his/her stay. I stay home full time so your dog will have my full attention and will never be left alone. I will send daily check in updates on how your dog is doing, along with pictures and short videos of your dog as well. So you can rest assured that in my care your dog will be in great hands while you are away! I currently don't do anything else but dog sitting meaning your dog will not be left alone and will always have my full attention during their stay. I do not require dogs to be in a crate they are free to roam and sleep wherever they would like. I am sure to watch closely that your pup does not eat anything they are not supposed to. I do not have a fenced yard but rest assured while on walks/potty breaks I am very alert and watchful to your pup and surroundings. They will be safe with me at all times.
“Jazmin was wonderful! House-Sat for us during a 3-day weekend trip. Was willing to come by beforehand so Frisco could meet her (and not be too scared when she came to house-sit that weekend) which we really appreciated. She was responsive, sent pictures and videos, and our guy seemed to be doing well when we got home :)”
About: Aside from having cared for my toy poodle for 12 years until he passed, I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family either during the day or entire vacation. Followed owners’ instructions and gave needed updates on pets’ wellbeing. I’m currently a full time student at community college Monday through Thursday, so while I am capable of being home in between classes, your pets will be able to have my full attention and care Friday through Sunday nights. I have a two story house with a fenced yard for your pets to play. I will abide by whatever instructions required to care for your babies, crate and frequently give potty breaks and walks. Aside from that, I would love to allow them to wander around and lay on the couch.
About: I am a compassionate caregiver, not only to mother, but to 2 “furbabies” of my own! I am available most weekdays after 4 pm, and available on weekends and holidays. I have experience housesitting and caring for animals of all kinds. I am a firm believer that pets are a part of a family and am passionate in helping others care for their furbabies when needed. I am patient and caring to all and enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. When your beloved companion stays with me, their overall health and safety are my top priorities. I will make sure that your pet receives the love and attention it deserves while in my care and will strive to make your experience easy and hassle-free. I provide quality care for breeds of all types and will strive to make sure your furbaby is happy and safe. I work from home during the week — I also stay close to home as I am my mother’s full-time caregiver. I am flexible and open to communication to fit you and your furbaby’s needs. I have a fully fenced yard that is regularly locked and secured in addition, I also work from home and rarely leave for long periods of time.
“Aicha was fantastic! She stayed over at my house with our baby for 4 days and was so responsive, respectful, and loving to our kitty! The house was in good shape when we returned and she sent us consistent images throughout the stay to show off how much fun she and the kitty were having. We would rebook (and did!) at any time. Thanks Aicha!”
“Lauren is amazing! I couldn’t recommend her enough. We have three dogs - which can be a handful - and she so easily managed them without issue! So excited to have connected with her and look forward to future appointments.”
About: Hi, I'm Kristina and I've been a veterinarian technician for 5 years! I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, affection, and devotion I give my own dog, Echo. I specialize in customized care tailored to your pet's unique personality—from energetic playtime and structured walks to gentle belly rubs and quiet companionship. I love keeping owners updated with frequent photo updates and detailed check-ins so you never have to worry while you're away. To ensure the safety and well-being of your pet, I require the assistance of a second person for administering injections or difficult medications if the animal becomes highly uncooperative. This helps keep stress low and procedures safe for everyone. I'm currently looking to sit for your fur babies part time while I'm out navigating a new work schedule for the time being Routine & Comfort: Keeps pets stress-free in their familiar environment by sticking strictly to their normal feeding, walking, and sleep schedules. Health & Safety: Precise administration of medications, daily litter/yard cleanup, secure handling, and close monitoring for any behavioral changes.
“Charlotte was amazing! She was communicative and responsive. She was proactive about questions and when I got home Perla was very well loved! Definitely would use again and highly recommend!”
About: It is important to me that our furry family members are taken care of and receive the care they deserve. I am extremely detail-oriented and strive to make sure I care for your family just as well as you do. I currently work a consistent part-time schedule along with attending online college so there should be little to no time conflicts. I keep a planner so I have a clear idea of what my schedule looks like. I have experience with giving medication to pets of different temperaments along with handling cases of food aggression. I ask owners to provide detailed lists of what is needed as well as actions I could take in case things go awry. I usually make the effort to contact owners with updates on pets and with questions when necessary.
“I’ve used rover many times before, Maria not only left me reassured on our pet meet up before the booking but also during booking. She listened to all of my elder dogs needs, my baby is 14 years of age and leaving her for a week was definitely nerve wracking since here eyes are already grey. She would send me updates on my pets, my dog doesn’t get along with many people or pets but she allowed Maria to get near her and even napped together. She truly is Angel and HIGHLY recommend!”
“Ayanna was great to work with -- very responsive, and able to take great care of our somewhat complicated and challenging dog. Would book her again for dog-sitting and house-sitting in a heartbeat.”
“I would not leave my special needs pup with anyone but Bari. She is amazing and goes above and beyond every time she takes care of my pup. Thank you Bari!!”
“Gabriela played with my pups and they had a great time. She walked them and they went to the park. I haven’t been able to do that for quite a while. She is a superhero. We had a great conversation about tropical fish and I learned a lot about pets from her. I’ll be requesting Gabriela again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Laguna is $60

Domynique, is fantastic she is always responsive and always keeps up with updates. This is the second time she has watched Nanea (2yo pitty mix) I swear I have not seen Nanea so happy with another person as she is with Domynique. I would 100% recommend using Domynique for your pups.
I almost don’t want to leave this review so that we can have Marissa for ourselves! We have ALOT going on with our old girls health and leaving her with a sitter really made us nervous but we had to for a family event last minute. Marissa was so amazing with our girls. Our older girl stopped walking a week ago due to vestibular issue but when Marissa came back the second day, she tried to walk to the door to greet her. I think that’s all the review she needs. We will definitely be calling her back for future sittings. Thank you for being so kind and loving our babies while we were out!
Amanda was AMAZING house sitting and watching my dogs! She was extremely communicative, and sent updates photos/videos throughout the day. I could tell in the photos now much my dogs loved hanging out with her! Thank you again Amanda! Would definitely work with her again!
AJ took amazing care of our home and dogs while we were away for our wedding. Prior to watching our dogs they came over twice to meet the dogs and know the home which made us feel great. He gave updates when needed but allowed us to fully enjoy our day with no worries. Highly recommend them for your dog and home sitting needs!
Karyna was requested last minute to care for our dog and was able to accommodate our needs. She is very responsive and communicative while sitting. We were so pleased with her excellent care she took care of our dog making being away from home so much easier for me. We will definitely be booking her again in the near future.
I can’t say enough good things about Marina. She is so sweet and incredibly responsive. She was always quick to reply and updated me throughout the day with messages and adorable pictures of Shiloh. Shiloh had an accident during the visit, and Marina was so kind and understanding and took care of cleaning it up without any issues at all (which I truly appreciated 🥺) Marina was also right on time despite having a very early start time, which really showed her reliability. I felt completely at ease knowing Shiloh was in such caring hands. Highly, highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!
We had such a great experience with Athena while we were away on our family trip. She was incredibly reliable and took amazing care of both our dogs and our home. She kept the house clean, made sure the dogs were walked regularly,even in cold weather, and went above and beyond by cleaning up the backyard. Our dogs clearly enjoyed having her around, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. It’s not easy to trust someone with your home and pets, but she exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Laguna is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $83 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 2,798 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laguna. 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 Laguna 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 Laguna 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 Laguna 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 Laguna. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
