“By far the best dog and house sitter we have ever had. Our dog Coco was clearly so in love with her. She took Coco to the early morning dog walking group per her usual schedule every day and the other dog walkers said she was absolutely lovely. She sent us regular pics and updates. She left our house clean and was super respectful of our space. We are so incredibly pleased and will be requesting her services again in the future!”


“I would highly recommend Vivian! She was thoughtful to keep me updated with photos and comments on the state of my elderly dog. She is experienced and was attentive to my detailed instructions. I appreciate her going the extra mile stripping the bed and straightening everything up before I arrived home. Thank you!”


“Kristin exceeded every expectation—constant care, genuine engagement with my dog, a perfect routine, and a truly happy, very active dog. I found Kristin after a very thorough search, as it is absolutely essential to me that my dog is not left alone for more than a very short time. She not only respected that—she exceeded every expectation. A big part of my dog’s happiness is her walks, and Kristin took her on long, frequent walks every day. Just as important—if not more—is her feeding routine, which is central to her happiness. She has four main meals per day, plus a small supper and treats in between. I typically combine meals with training and play, and Kristin followed this routine exactly and with great care. Kristin truly engaged with my dog—playing with her both indoors and outdoors, grooming her, and even having her sleep in bed with her at night. She also sent me photos every day, which gave me complete peace of mind. She went above and beyond in ways I did not expect—she even bought my dog a new toy and a bag of treats, which says a lot about how much she genuinely cares. I returned to an exceptionally happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for dog. My dog is very perceptive, and it was immediately clear that she had formed a strong bond with Kristin—they were practically inseparable during the stay. On top of that, the house was left very clean and in perfect condition, with everything exactly as I left it. I would trust Kristin again without hesitation and highly recommend her.”
“John was kind, attentive, and caring to our shy little dog, Milo, and our crazy goofus, Ozzie. He sent us lots of photos and videos during our week away, and the house was left in immaculate condition. We couldn't be more pleased.”

“Kiana stayed at our home for nine days to watch our dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was a long time for us to be away, especially from a pup with separation anxiety and health issues that require medication multiple times a day, so we needed someone truly exceptional. Kiana was even better than that! She is incredibly detail oriented and follows every instruction with care. Our house was clean and well looked after. But what really sets Kiana apart is how deeply she cares. Knowing our dog struggles with new people and stressful transitions, she not only came for an initial meet and greet but proactively offered to visit again so he could feel completely comfortable before the long stay. Throughout her time with him, she sent photos and updates that showed just how relaxed and happy he was. He was genuinely loved and perfectly cared for, and honestly, I think he is bummed now that she is gone! We will absolutely be requesting Kiana’s help again. Highly recommend!”

“Roy was such a great sitter for our two (high energy) Australian Shepherds! He was very communicative and kept us informed with updates and photos. One of our dogs has some medical needs and I was confident he was in good hands with Roy. He also took great care of our house and honestly left it better than when we left. Would highly recommend!”

“Lauren did an amazing job house-sitting for our two cats. They took an immediate liking to her, and we were at ease throughout our trip because of her excellent communication - with photos, videos, and updates on what they were up to. We would highly recommend Lauren to anyone.”

“Julie took great care of our two dogs, cats and house while we enjoyed a vacation. We got updates and pictures on a regular basis. It made for a much more relaxing getaway. Will absolutely reach out again for future trips.”
“Dana was an amazing house/dog/cat sitter and I couldn't recommend her more highly. She had to deal with our very high energy puppy, anxious small dog and elusive cat and she did a wonderful job with all three. It was also such a relief to come home to a house that was even cleaner than we left it!”

“Sophia is an incredible dog caretaker, sitter and house guest. She is attentive, proactive in communication and very clean. She is organized in her approach taking the most care with instructions including giving medicine. She looked after my large cane corso dog soon after surgery. I really appreciate her!”

About: Hi folks, I’m Hannah. My pets are a part of my chosen family. They each have their own quirks, preferences, attitudes, and personalities. I’d be honored to bring your furry family member into our lives! I’ve had many different pets over the last 20 years: parakeets (Lucy and Ricky), gerbils (Louis and Clark), dogs (Lilly, Iggy, Olive, Stella, Dexter, Pearl), and cats (Charlie, Baby Boy). We love to walk and hike throughout the bay area, run the beach, teach tricks, sunbathe in the yard, play with the very many (too many!) toys strewn about our house, and cuddle in front of the fire pit. I’d love to know more about your pet to ensure they are safe and happy and that I’m providing the best kind of care catered to them. Are they shy? Friendly? Aloof? Nervous? Mischievous? Do they need a little more love to make sure they are comfortable? How many daily walks is ideal for their energy level? Do they get specific meals and meds to protect their health? Do they have a history of reactivity? Favorite spot for scritches? Etc. I’m also happy to provide specific care based on their needs, senior pups and cats welcome! Thanks so much for reading 💕🐾 We live in San Mateo and I’m currently working part time in San Francisco on M/W/F mornings so I have a flexible schedule to care for your furry family. I am also open to working out a pick up and drop off schedule if that is something you’re interested in. We have a lovely fenced yard for our pups to run around and frolic in, as well as a doggy door so they can go out at their leisure. I like to take my dog on 2 walks a day (gotta check their pee-mails!) and there is a dog park within walking distance of our house should your pup prefer to run around freely. I do not crate my dog, so if that is in your routine, please let me know in advance so we can plan accordingly. Above all I believe fresh air, engagement, and enrichment creates the happiest environment for our pets. I’d love to welcome yours into our family ❤️
About: Well, I love dogs and I honestly treat them like children. I take time to train and show affection while also creating a safe environment for your doggy💕 I work full time! But my weekends are free and can also watch during night! We can come up with a schedule that works for all of us! I currently live in a spacious apartment and right behind a park. I’ll make sure your pet is always on a leash and or in a gated area.

About: I'm a student looking to help out with local pet care and housesitting this fall. I live off campus on my own, I'm vegan, and I genuinely love animals. My classes don't require attendance since I use recorded lectures, and I don't work a job, so my schedule is very flexible. I'm more than happy to keep your pets company, stick to their regular routines and daily walks, and make sure everything is taken care of. I'm also comfortable caring for dogs with extra needs, including giving pills, administering eye drops, and helping with mobility, like assisting senior dogs with stairs, ramps, or getting up and down. I'll always send plenty of photo updates so you know they're doing great. I've cared for dogs and cats for neighboring families and friends for many years, so I'm comfortable handling pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. My home is very clean and dog-proofed, and my housing has double doors for extra security. I live off campus and independently, and my schedule is incredibly open and flexible this fall. None of my classes have mandatory attendance, so I watch recorded lectures on my own time, which leaves me with plenty of free time during the week and on weekends. Since I don't work a job, I can hang out with your pets, stick to their routines, and make sure they're taken care of as if they were my own. 🐾🤍 Safety is my top priority. I always double-check locks and gates, follow your feeding, medication, and walking instructions exactly, and keep a close eye on your pets the whole time. I've cared for dogs and cats for family and friends for years, so I know what can go wrong and how to prevent it. My housing has double doors, which adds an extra layer of protection if a pet is prone to bolting or escaping. My home is also very clean and fully dog-proofed, so your pets will be comfortable and safe. 🐾🔒
“Can’t thank Savannah enough! She took the best care of our senior dog and kept me updated throughout the entire stay. She put us at ease being so far away. Appreciate you so much Savannah!”


About: I’ve built a loyal client base since 2022 primarily through word of mouth and have many excellent references. I have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines, and I consider myself well-prepared to handle a variety of situations. I’m highly communicative, proactive, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I always strive to go the extra mile for my clients, making sure both pets and their people feel heard, respected, and confident in their care. This work brings me a great deal of joy, and I genuinely love getting to know and care for each animal. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week and travel across the Bay Area for in-home sits. Pets are also welcome to stay with me at my Emeryville loft. I have an 8-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix who is friendly with most animals and mostly keeps to himself. I prioritize regular walks, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection throughout the day. When caring for dogs in their home, I aim for 2–3 walks daily on safe, familiar routes; there is also a dog park directly across from my loft if that’s a good fit for the dog. I follow each client’s care instructions closely, communicate proactively if questions come up, and keep clients updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
“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!”

“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!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,925 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
