“We are so lucky to have found Ashley. She is reliable, responsible, trustworthy, and communicative. It’s so nice to be able to leave home and know that all my pets are in her wonderful care!”
About: With a lifetime of pet care experience, I specialize in providing the extra attention your fur babies deserve. My background includes hands-on care for senior rescues and dogs with physical disabilities, meaning your pet is always in highly capable, patient hands. Let's chat today about how I can support your pet's routine! 😊 Fresh graduate out of college, now giving me the time to explore my fields into caregiving. I also babysit for families too! I do my best to work with schedules into mine. I am available everyday except Tuesday and Thursday, but if it’s really needed I can work in the afternoons. I make sure your pets are included with everything I am doing. I’m my home my dogs are always doing activities, such as passing a ball, watching movies, playing with bubbles, sleeping, eating, drinking, and getting headpats. I even plan outdoor park time for my senior dog to take in the sun he needs. Like I said I want everyone to feel included so I even take my time to carrying him up and down the stairs of my house.
About: Caring for dogs has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I’ve cherished every moment of it. From feeding and exercising them to ensuring they receive their regular vet check-ups, I’m dedicated to their well-being. Having dogs all my life has taught me the importance of patience, love, and understanding in building strong, trusting relationships with them. Each dog is unique, and I make it a priority to cater to their individual needs while providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine, both before and after work. In the mornings, I start by feeding my pets, checking their water supply, and taking them for their first walk or play session of the day. This ensures they get the exercise and attention they need to stay healthy and happy. After work, I focus on additional playtime, training, and grooming activities. This includes feeding them their evening meal, a second walk or play session, and any necessary care such as brushing or administering medications. I also use this time to clean up any messes and check in on their overall well-being. By incorporating these pet care tasks into my daily schedule, I maintain a balanced routine that keeps my pets content and ensures their needs are consistently met. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client's home, involves a thoughtful approach tailored to each animal's needs. In my own home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment by maintaining a clean space, providing fresh food and water, and sticking to their regular exercise routines. I also offer plenty of enrichment activities and attention to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain consistency and comfort for the pet. This includes adhering to feeding schedules, administering any medications, and following their routine as closely as possible. I also make sure to respect their home by keeping it tidy and addressing any concerns promptly. My goal is always to create a stress-free and happy environment for the pets, ensuring they feel secure and well-cared for while their owners are away.

Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or snuggles, I treat every pet like family. I’m a college athlete with a busy academic and training schedule, so I’m available to care for your pets on weekends, Mondays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I have class from 12 to 4 p.m., but I’m flexible outside of those hours. My love for dogs and years of pet care experience means your dogs will get top-notch attention and care! I understand how important your home and pet’s safety are, and I take that very seriously. I will always respect your home by following your guidelines, keeping spaces clean, and ensuring your pet has a calm, secure environment. I value responsibility and honesty. You can trust that I’ll provide the best care for your pet and peace of mind for you.
“Mike took good care of our two older dogs. They were happy and healthy apon our 5 day return and the house was great as we left it. He got packages from outside that werent supose to be delivered so that was great too. He showed up on time and stayed until our agreed upon touch down of flight very late the last night. Knowing he lives in the town we do also is nice. We will definitely get him to stay again if he's free next time we need a sitter. He even fixed our tv remote/sound bar connectivity issues. Thanks Mike! Dana”
“Alexis C. Is amazing❗️ We meet with Alexis two times before our travel. I was a bit nervous to leave Yuuki so I requested to have a meet and greet and then a short visit the day before we left. Alexis was agreeable to both meetings. She is very flexible and amazing with dogs. Our shy Yuuki excepted Alexis on the second visit. Yuuki wanted to play with her on the first visit but she couldn’t let her guard down. We were very pleased because Yuuki is slow to except new friends. Alexis is a dog whisperer. She is very quick to reply to messages. Alexis is very sweet, has a gentle disposition, and is very acomadating . After all of this we didn’t use Alexis ? because our grandson became ill and wasn’t able to take the trip, he was able to care for Yuuki. Alexis agreed to be on standby the complete week of our trip. Alexis stayed in touch and offered to come over for feedings and walks. Alexis showed such compassion. We will most definitely use Alexis for our next get away. Maria M”
About: We all love our fur friends, but life gets in the way sometimes. That’s why I’m here! My family once had 5 dogs and 1 cat all at once, and I loved every second of it.

I current can’t sit at my home, but at your home, I will follow every safety rule AND SOME because this is someone’s fur baby.
“Jamie was a caring, kind sitter and I felt totally confident after meeting her that she would take excellent care of my little dog. She was understanding and helpful while I was on vacation. A pleasure meeting and working with her on all arrangements!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud owner of six pets. I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like family. I’m patient, reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I make pet care a priority and strive to maintain each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and supervised environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed. I take time to learn each pet’s needs, routines, and preferences to ensure the best possible care. As a nursing student and licensed esthetician, I understand the importance of attention to detail, responsibility, and clear communication. I will always keep you updated with messages and photos throughout your pet’s stay.🙌
“You can tell taking care of animals is in Nelson’s blood. He came through for me and Nico on a last minute business trip and provided plenty of updates throughout the day. In addition to taking excellent care of Nico, Nelson also left the house even cleaner than I did when I left which is such a relief after coming home from a trip. Thanks again Nelson, Nico is already looking forward to hanging out with you next time!”
“April housesat for me for five days with my two Weimaraners. They are nervous around new people, but they warmed up to April quickly. April was diligent about contact, keeping me updated and letting me know when anything came up with the dogs. When I returned from vacation, the dogs were happy and healthy, and the house was tidy. I will absolutely be booking with April again when I go on my next trip or if I need drop-in visits on long work days. She is friendly, kind, and communicative.”
About: I am a college student at Chico State, my mayor is Ag Business. I lived with dogs my entire life and sharing is caring. I enjoy putting others priorities instead of mine because that will bring happiness to the individual and that will make me happy. I use to work at a BBQ restaurant as a waiter at first then became a cook and ended as an assistant manager. I left the restaurant business because I wanted to go to College in California. Now I’m here enjoying the California culture. I would be more than happy to help you with your dog needs. Feel free to contact me at any time of any day. Ohh I was born and raised in Quito, Ecuador my father raised me bilingual.
“Coralie house-sat over the weekend with my lab April. She took such great care of her and sent me pictures of her on walks and playing with her dog Zia. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her and when I got home April was happy and healthy and she even loaded my dishwasher :) Coralie is very reliable and so great with my dog. We always have great experiences with walks and pet-sitting. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was 4, my whole life I’ve had 8 dogs. I work at Petco so I have lots of experience with dogs. I work at Petco 5 days a week so after work is preferred, so later at night. Usually after 6:30 is the best for me I will follow the directions given by owner very carefully. I’ll be respectful of other peoples homes and take great care of your pets if given the opportunity
About: I grew up on a small farm, and from as young as I could remember, I was always the “Animal Wrangler”, and main caretaker for my friends’ and family's pets, anytime I would visit. I started pet sitting more professionally in 2012, beginning Team Max as an All-In-One, Pet/House/Child Sitter, with Cleaning, Transportation, and General Task Assistance available, as additional services. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals, from big to small, old, or wild, and most with special needs. (Only Spiders are off limits). I’m currently getting my degree in Animal Training, followed by a Vet Tech degree; so, soon I’ll have a brochure of training opportunities I can provide and more. I'm available 24/7 for short term and long term stays; including emergency visits, performing additional tasks, and providing grooming or training services during anytime of the year! I like to build a foundation of trust by meeting with my clients beforehand. Not only for us and the pets to feel safe and comfortable, but, I enjoy getting a walk-through of the house, learning how it functions, and talking through any concerns, prior to the first stay or visit.
“Luna did an amazing job staying and sitting for our senior dog who needs medications twice a day and can be a bit nervous/high strung. Within minutes of being in our home, our dog was snuggled next to her and licking her hand. We are so grateful to have found Luna and have already reached out to rebook!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Los Banos on Rover is $35 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 149 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Los Banos. 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 Los Banos 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 Los Banos 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 Los Banos 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
