About: Since I was 16 I have dog, cat, and house sat for family, friends, and neighbors with respect, love, and care! I love all animals! Im currently working as a server in Laguna beach! My schedule is at random (around 3-4 days a week) and my shifts don’t last longer than 5 hours! So, I will be able to spend as much time as you need me to taking care of and showing your pets love! I take care of other peoples animals as if they were my own. I will follow care rules and instructions delicately and with precision. It’s important to me to follow the rules of the house and with the animal to create a comfortable stay!
“This was the first time we left our pup at home (she's spoiled). Brenda immediately put our mind at ease and allowed us to not worry about the dog while we were away for the night. And our pup loved her too. Her communication was excellent, she even sent us updates throughout the evening. Brenda is great, we'd 10/10 recommend her if you need someone kind and trustworthy to watch your animals.”
“I had the pleasure of having Sabrina as my dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with her services. She is not only great with the dogs but also excels in communication. Whenever she arrived, my dogs were overjoyed to see her, which is a testament to the strong bond she built with them. Sabrina is incredibly knowledgeable and truly cares for the well-being of the dogs under her care. I wholeheartedly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.”
“Lisa was amazing! She sent tons of update pictures and videos, so we knew our puppy was ok and having a good time! Very kind and nice! I would absolutely recommend her, if you are looking for someone to watch your pets!”
“Alla was perfect for my nervous senior pup Kenna . i found her last minute and she was a perfect fit . she followed all directions perfectly and her communication was quick . i will definitely be asking Alla to babysit again”
“I cannot say enough nice things about our experience with Silvia. My dog absolutely loves her and she did a wonderful job dog sitting and house sitting while we were away. I highly recommend her.”
“Cheryl was great watching our needy/attention loving cat over the weekend! You can tell she really cares about each and every animal she looks after, and will do everything to make sure your pet is taken care of while you're away. She gave great updates and the cutest pictures! I am usually a nervous wreck when we have to leave our cat, but I was able to relax this time because we trusted in Cheryl's quality of care so much!”
“Caroline took wonderful care of our older golden at our house for the past couple days. We came home to a very happy pup and a clean house! Can’t ask for more than that!”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have many years of personal experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I currently have a miniature Dachshund whom I absolutely adore, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I am patient, attentive, dependable, and very respectful of each pet’s individual routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, companionship, basic grooming, and providing extra attention to senior pets. I also have experience preparing homemade, pre-portioned meals for my own dog each week, so I am very comfortable following detailed feeding instructions and special meal routines. I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. My goal is for both pets and their parents to feel comfortable, safe, and completely at ease while they are in my care. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, going for walks, playing, preparing their meals, and making sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the time and care each pet deserves I treat every pet and every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I carefully follow feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions, while keeping pets safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I also make sure the home is kept clean, tidy, and secure while the owner is away.
“Cristina took such wonderful care of my dog & 2 kitties. She was punctual, communicative, and very kind and caring all throughout. She sent us pictures of our happy pets during our vacation, which put our mind at ease, and we found our new pet sitter. Thank you Cristina!”
About: I grew up with dogs and spent 10+ years caring for my own rescue dog, Jack. I spent 5+ years volunteering at an animal shelter, fostering dogs, and taking shelter dogs running. I have completed dog training courses for all of those activities. I understand just how much trust it takes to put your dog in someone else’s care. I’m attentive, patient and affectionate, and I treat every dog as an individual with their own personality, routines and needs. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and the additional care they may require, including administering medications, preparing special meals, assisting with mobility, adapting walks and activities, and following detailed care routines. I’m also very observant of changes in behavior, appetite, energy and comfort. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs—whether that means a good walk, playtime, exploring outside, or simply keeping them company at home. I’m reliable and responsible, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully so your dog can stay as close as possible to their normal routine while you’re away. My apartment is large, spacious, and quiet. I am in the first floor so it is accessible for senior dogs. I have a gated patio which adds security to the front area. My complex is quiet and has walking paths and grassy areas, with very few dog owners - and we keep our dogs separate and away from each other. Your dog will be safe and secure with me. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m active and enjoy walking, but I’m equally happy to adjust my routine for a senior dog or a pet who prefers a quieter day at home. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I take caring for someone else’s pet and home seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, household rules and any special routines your pet is accustomed to. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility or comfort and will communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep it clean, secure and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable and getting plenty of attention.
“Sydney was great. Left the house in the same shape it was when she arrived. Dogs were happy on coming home and seemed well taken care of. Would have preferred more photos of them and a bit more communication.”
About: I have had animals since I was eight. I have compassion and patience. I enjoy the animals company and taking care of all their needs I have an open schedule and will accomadate all the animals needs and the pet parents wants for their animals. My goal is to meet all needs I will help pet feel relaxed, calm and not sad while the owner is away. I will play with them and try to make it like a vacation for them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Laguna Beach
Lisa was fantastic with our dogs. We had to find a sitter very last minute and she didn’t hesitant. She had great communication and was always so friendly. Lisa sent us multiple pictures everyday so I didn’t have a single worry about our dogs. We came back to our house extremely clean and organized and to happy pets. Would highly recommend Lisa’s services. She truly loves animals!
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 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 5,263 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
