“John was great! We booked last minute. I went with him based on his reviews, and they’re all accurate. He was prompt and our dog took to him immediately. We got photos while we were out and Faust was so relaxed when we got back. We will definitely book with him again in the future. Honestly, 10 out of 10.”
“Emily watched my 2 pups and bird while we were out of town for a long weekend. She kept me informed and sent photos and videos of my babies, which I really appreciated! She is very respectful and has great rapport with my dogs and will hire her again 🐶”
“Kaitlin was wonderful and is a great communicator! She sent us a picture of the dogs while we were gone which we really appreciated! Looking forward to our next booking and will continue to book with her in the future. :)”
“Isabelle is amazing! Nala immediately warmed up to her at the meet n greet, making me feel more at ease leaving her with a new person. Isabelle gave regular updates and pictures and took Nala on a few little adventures, which I greatly appreciated :) Isabelle also took great care of our place. Everything was clean and tidy when we returned. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be reaching out for future needs!”
“Emma was all we could’ve hoped for: an excellent dog sitter! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos and updates about our girl Dolly while we were away. We were at ease knowing our pup was in excellent care and getting lots of love and attention. Thank you Emma!”
“Kelsy was amazing with McLovin. She had such a caring energy from the moment she arrived at our home. Her communication was great. We felt very much at ease leaving our sweet guy with her.”
“Jimena was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs and our home. She always kept in touch, and sent lots of happy photos. It was such a relief to know our dogs were in great hands while we were away. We will be booking her again for sure!!”
“Dawn was absolutely AMAZING! She cared for our dogs so effortlessly and stepped in on such late notice, which was a huge blessing for us on our wedding day. Our dogs instantly felt comfortable with her, and that gave us so much peace of mind. She even helped get them ready for our wedding photo shoot, which meant the world to us! She was so pleasant, kind, and truly incredible to work with. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would recommend her to everyone without hesitation! 🐾💛”
“Laura kept the Boyz happy and entertained…just what we wanted. We were only gone for one day and night and she sent pictures of the Boyz cuddling with her and the all important feeding time! Thanks for being a great temp Mom to my Boyz!”
“This is only 2nd time using Rover for house/dog sitting. The last person used was lovely but unavailable this time. I thankfully came to Jenna who was. I am so thankful to have found her. She was super responsive and had a very pleasant demeanor. I am someone who is pretty detailed when it comes to my fur babies so I provided her with a full list of all things pup related regarding their routine. She appreciated my attention to detail and I think it really helped avoid any confusion or questions. She sent me pictures and gave me updates throughout her stay giving me such peace of mind that they were well taken care of. I will certainly reach back out again for future house/dog sitting needs.”
“Krystal is AHMAZING! I came home and the house was so clean. My dog never lets sitters walk her but she let Krystal walk her multiple times per day which is WILD in the best way! Krystal is a miracle worker and I'm so thankful she came to sit for us <3”
“Jingyling was absolutely amazing taking care of our senior pup. Our pup had some recent medical issues and she took excellent care of her. She gave us lots of updates and left the home tidy. Will use again.”
“We hired Jasmine to house/pet sit while we were out of town. She took excellent care of our dogs and cat. She is very reliable and attentive, providing consistent communication with photos and video updates. She even went above and beyond by sweeping our floors! Our dogs are very high energy and Jasmine provided them with more than enough playtime. She clearly loves animals! Our dogs were well cared for and happy they got to have her very cute dogs as playmates! I feel she is someone we can trust with our animals and we already hired her for our next vacation. Thank you so much, Jasmine!!”
“Sarah is super communicative and very easygoing, making the whole experience so pleasant for us. We had multiple changes in our plan, and she was very accommodating. I look forward to having her care for our pups in the near future because I know they’ll be in good hands.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Laguna Beach
We are so grateful to Mikayla, and are so glad we found her. 😊 She took great care of our two pups while we were out and about, and our youngest dog is a rescue who is afraid of most people, but seems to have warmed up to her quickly. Would definitely use her in the future.
Ryan was excellent. He took great care of our dog Karma while we were at the hospital for the birth of our baby. Very reliable, flexible, and respectful of our home. Clear communication, thoughtful updates, and genuine care. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dependable sitter who handles everything smoothly and professionally.

FAQs for House Sitting - Laguna Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Laguna Beach on Rover is $64.38 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,275 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laguna Beach. 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 Beach 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 Beach 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 Beach 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.

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.
