“Chelsea was great. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and she made us feel comfortable being away from our fur baby. She also went above and beyond keeping us updated through texts and pictures while we were away. Very trustworthy. Highly recommend ❤️”

“Maria house sat our 10 month old German shepherd puppy for a three day weekend and he was very well looked after and played and cuddled with. We were wondering what to do with our pup when we were traveling since the friends we usually leave him with were also traveling. We found Maria on Rover and she came home for a quick meet and greet at short notice. She and our pup hit it off immediately so that was a big relief for us to leave him with her. She also kept us posted with photos and videos and other updates. Overall a good experience for us and for our pup.”

“Michaela has been wonderful with our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She accomodated us booking her at the last minute before an international trip and was proactively communicating before and during the trip. The pets have been very happy in her very experienced hands and we received the cutest pictures a few times a day. Michaela went above and beyond with our pets and with taking care of our home - leaving stunning flowers on the way out. We personally connected with her and would love to have her back. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Shawn did a fantastic job pet sitting our dogs and cats for a week while he stayed at our house. In particular, he was very responsive to the needs of our senior dog who needs extra help. He kept us in the loop and was a marvelous house guest. I’d book him again for my next trip out of town as he is capable, reliable and very good at taking care of our pets. They all warmed up to him in no time! What a treat to travel knowing that all is well at home with Shawn there to ensure it all goes to plan!”

“Connie kept our cat safe and our condo well taken care of while we were away for 10 days. We are grateful for the attention she gave to our cat Baby, and the daily pictures she sent. Connie was quick to respond from the first Facetime meet, through our entire trip. Connie went the extra mile to find out our Cat's likes, dislikes, quirks, vet info etc using her own questionnaire and information doc. We really appreciated that. She left our condo spotless and our cat was a happy cat when we arrived home. Our cat is an indoor/outdoor cat, which can be hard. Connie followed Baby one morning just to see where she likes to wander! We felt confident leaving Connie in Baby's care. My husband and I both highly recommend Connie!”

“Ryan & Maria are everything you could possible want in a dog or house sitter. They are trustworthy, passionate, caring and diligent beyond most. We have had the pleasure of having them watch our home several times and each time the bar is raised for care, professionalism and creativity. On this last trip; our flight back from Hawaii was cancelled and we had to stay an extra day; Ryan and Maria were able to switch their schedule around to ensure our dog Cecil was taken care of. Book without any hesitation; highly recommend.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Loma Mar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 6,850 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Loma Mar. 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 Loma Mar 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 Loma Mar 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 Loma Mar 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 Loma Mar. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
