“Alisson was such a wonderful pet/house sitter. She was very informative sending updates and photos of the dogs. Our dogs loved her! One of our dogs usually isn’t the most comfortable with strangers but he warmed up to Alisson right away no issues. We completely felt that our home and dogs were in great hands while we were away. We will definitely be repeat customers of Alisson.”

“Samantha took great care of Jax. I got lots of updates and pictures and confirmations that she was putting in the extra effort for his care. The house was clean and his box was unkept when i got home. He warmed up to her slowly which means she took it at his pace which i greatly appreciate. It means she knows how shy cats can be. Thank you so much and Jax and i Greatly appreciate all the extra efforts. Means so much when I’m away! My old man is almost 19 Now and his care is imprornat to me.”
“We recently adopted our dog and were concerned about leaving her all day. Kayla made us feel at ease. Kayla has a calm energy and our pup loved her! She sent us pictures and videos so we knew everything was good. We highly recommend Kayla.”
About: I am both friendly and respectable to animals. Ive had the privilege to live with my families Lhasa apso for 12 years, so I am qualified with the basic necessities to care for any 4 legged friend. I am currently flexible with my time, so scheduling anything at the last minute is fine by me. I spend most of my time at a art studio with plenty of room and is pet friendly. I would to be aware of any medical or special needs that your pet my have before any hand off. If you need to drop off your dog with me, I have a studio space with plenty of room for any dog to run around.
“David was absolutely amazing for us! He was able to accommodate us last minute for our wedding, which meant so much during such a busy and special time. From the moment he arrived, he bonded so quickly with all three of our dogs — it was clear they felt comfortable and happy with him right away. He kept us updated throughout the night and sent the sweetest pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We were able to fully enjoy our wedding without worrying for a second. Huge thumbs up! He was truly awesome, and we are so grateful for him! 🐾💛”
“We can't recommend Kaitlyn enough! She took amazing care of our 9-year-old Ragdoll, who has special needs, and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she ensure he was well-fed, comfortable, and given his medication on time, but she also showered him with love and attention, keeping him happy while we were away. Our cat had a litter box accident, and without hesitation, Kaitlyn gave him a bath and made sure he was clean, comfortable, and stress-free again—something not every cat sitter would be willing to do! On top of that, she took it upon herself to look after our home, making sure everything was in order. We returned to a clean, well-cared-for space and, most importantly, a content and relaxed cat! She kept us updated with messages and photos, giving us peace of mind throughout our trip. If you're looking for a truly dedicated, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter, Kaitlyn is the one to call!”
“Better late than never. Robin is amazing . She watched our Bentley for week at our Aliso Viejo home when we were in Hawaii. Bentley adored her and was well taken care of . Robin sent photos daily . We knew our pup was loved and pampered. Robin we appreciate you and thank you for not only taken great care of Bentley but also our home. You are our go to and we thank you dear friend . See you soon.”
“Dawn did a great job watching my greyhound over the holiday week. She made sure to take pictures for his walks and when he was fed and checked in with him regularly. She was really responsive as well and had a great with my dog. Will definitely book again and recommend her as a sitter!!”
“First time having Emily help us out watching our dog and staying at our place while we were out of town. She was great, kept us informed with pics and messages and left the house immaculate. Emily stopped by a few weeks before the stay to get acquainted with Lucy who took to her right away. We will definitely keep Emily in mind next time we need some help.”
“Claudia was an amazing pet-sitter to our dog and cat! After meeting her beforehand and seeing how happy Chase and Jojo were to see her, we knew they were in good hands! She sent us pics of our boys and kept us updated. Claudia is the sweetest and friendliest woman you’ll ever meet. I highly recommend her.”
About: I have more than 30 years of experience. I started dog-sitting for friends and family and through private referrals. I have cared for dogs of all ages. I will keep you updated with photos and messages. And for additional peace of mind, I have pet-sitter insurance (certificate available upon request). Doggy socializing (the dog park, Starbucks, restaurant patios, doggy play dates with their friends or your fur baby's other favorite hangout spot) are included during overnight stays with dog parents' permission of course. I work from home which allows me to give your fur babies the love and attention that you would want for them and that they deserve. My aim is to provide next level service and to help lessen the stress of being away from your fur baby. All I need is a place to crash (I don't mind sharing the bed with your dogs), the Wi-Fi password, and your doggos to hang out with. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, relaxed, doted on and well looked after while you’re away. Rest assured, during overnight bookings, your pets will be the only ones that I take care of. Meaning, I won't book any drop-ins or walks with other clients.
“Donna and Mike were the answer to our prayers for our senior Chihuahua Capri. They were both loving and kind while watching her and sent updates each day, sometimes multiple times a day! Our Capri has health challenges and requires medicine throughout the day as well as help with feeding and mobility since she has a hard time seeing with cataracts. They were wonderful from drop-off to pick-up and gave Capri lots of reassurance and cuddle time. We would highly recommend using them as sitters for your fur babies. We will definitely book them again!”
About: I grew up in a lively household with 6 dogs and 3 cats, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the last 15 years, I’ve pet sat for nearly everyone in my life- friends, family, neighbors, you name it. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, medication for seniors, or playtime with energetic pups, I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I care for. This path felt inevitable. So here I am I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me a flexible schedule to offer walks or check-ins throughout the day. I take regular strolls to the park and around the lake, so I’d love a furry friend to join me! Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday play session, or a relaxing evening cuddle, I’m home and available to give your pet the attention they deserve. I have a fully fenced-in, sun-filled patio with a large, comfy outdoor couch- perfect for lounging in the fresh air, surrounded by birds and plants. Inside, pets can relax on a spacious, pet-friendly couch and feel right at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and can create a calm, secure environment tailored to their comfort, whether they’re staying the day or overnight.
“Stella did a great job. Harley was walked 2-3 x a day. He really was Happy to see her when the key was dropped off. The house was left spotless. We would definitely use Stella again to watch Harley and our house.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. For the past five years, I've been a proud dog dad to my corgi, Juju, which has given me firsthand experience with the daily needs, routines, and personalities that make every dog unique. As a teacher, I am naturally patient, responsible, and detail-oriented. I understand the importance of consistency, clear communication, and building trust with both with pets and their owners. Whether it's sticking to feeding schedules, going on walks, providing playtime, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, and my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am available for overnight sitting Sunday through Thursday nights, as well as drop-in visits and dog walks from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain the routine they are already familiar with. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences provided by the owner. During drop-in visits and house sitting, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life! I have personal and professional experience with dogs, cats, birds, small animals, and reptiles. As a recent graduate with a bachelor's degree in animal science, I have extensive knowledge in pet care and animal enrichment. I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time in the day to entertain and care for your pet/pets if I were to be house sitting. Alternatively, I have plenty of availability for drop in visits or walks as needed. For house sitting, I would carry on your pet's schedule as if you were home. Walks, food, and any other hygiene or health care routines would be carried out as usual. I am also capable of maintaining home care routines and chores as well, garbage, watering plants, etc.
About: I take care of 5 of my dogs back home and I love them with my whole heart. Walking them, feeding them, training them, you name it! I’m currently away from them right now, and while I’m away from them, I wanna share my love to other dogs because every pup deserves it! I currently have a part-time job and only one class at school so I have a lot of time to invest for your pups any day. Just let me know in advance and I will be at your service! :) Taking care of 5 dogs for 5 years has trained me how to properly deal with dogs. Whether they are big or small, I believe I can handle them with love and care.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Laguna Hills is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Laguna Hills
Samantha was amazing. She helped with dog training and kept in constant communication with us throughout our time away. She walked our doggo 2x a day and gave her special treats. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely be asking her to help dog sit again.
This was our first time using Rover as our regular sitters were unavailable. I am so impressed with Alison and cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She came to meet me and the dogs a week before our trip, and I could tell right away she was responsible, knowledgeable and loving. She was extremely communicative before and during our stay, she sent daily updates and photos and quickly won over our shy little rescue, which was such a pleasant surprise. I will absolutely rebook with Alison and I’m so grateful for her care.
We booked Caroline very last minute, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. Leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, but they immediately put our minds at ease with incredible communication and genuine care for Roxie. They sent so many pictures and videos throughout the stay, which meant so much to our family and made us feel completely comfortable knowing Roxie was happy and well cared for. It was obvious from the updates that Roxie was getting lots of attention, love, and great care. We are beyond grateful for how thoughtful, communicative, and caring they were—especially on short notice. If you’re looking for someone dependable who will treat your pet like family and keep you updated every step of the way, we absolutely recommend Caroline We would gladly book with them again!
David was truly awesome. I think our pets wish he was still there and we didn’t come back! He was very attentive and took such great care of them. He was also super communicative and sent pictures and an update every day. He was even flexible when our travel got messed up. I highly recommend him. He kept our pets and our house cared for and attended to. He is very thoughtful as well. Couldn’t ask for more.
Nicole was an amazing dog sitter and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She gave us daily updates along with lots of photos and videos, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. She took such great care of our dog, Rex, and it was obvious he was happy and well loved the entire time. We would absolutely book with Nicole again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!
Jen has been WONDERFUL with our dog and cat! She always sends us picture updates so that we know that our animals are happy and safe. Jen was always flexible with our weird schedules (my husband and I both work nightshift). We hope Jen can watch our dog and cat again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a very caring pet sitter!
Joshua is great. I had to go out of town for a family emergency on short notice. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little nervous about it, but I didn’t have much of a choice. I messaged Joshua and he immediately messaged me back saying he was available. He offered to come over just 20 minutes after I first messaged him to do a quick meet and greet with the dogs. My pups pretended to do their guardians of the house routine but Joshua won them over in about two minutes flat. During my entire trip, Joshua was very communicative. He sent me a video every morning and evening so I could see how the dogs were doing. The dogs were pretty depressed looking on the first couple of days, but by day 3, I could see their tails wagging. Joshua was such a neat houseguest, too. I could hardly tell that anyone had stayed there. He even took out the trash before I got home. I’m very happy with this experience and I’d be happy to book with him again.
Martina was a great fit for our family. We would definitely book her again. Martina came to our house in advance to meet our dog and her people, and we all thought she would be awesome with Jet, and she totally was. After we came home, our dog continued to keep an eye out the front window, looking for Martina. Martina did a fantastic job communicating with us and readily asked questions about things I didn’t think to cover. Martina and I have some significant life experiences in common and bonded over that. It felt like she was a friend I hadn’t seen for a long time as soon as I met her. We will definitely be requesting Martina again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Laguna Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Laguna Hills on Rover is $53.39 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,994 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laguna Hills. 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 Hills 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 Hills 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 Hills 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 Laguna Hills. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
