“Mike is our go-to for taking care of Red. Red loves taking Mike on walks and cuddling on the couch with him! I am always 100% worry-free when we have Mike taking care of Red!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Shannon! We live in an RV fulltime, and wanted to take a quick trip without the RV. I was so grateful to learn that Shannon is very knowledgeable on RV living. She took great care of our dogs, cat, and RV while we were gone. She was easy to contact, came for a meet and greet, showed up on time, kept me updated with text and photos, and left our home cleaner than we left it. I would absolutely use her again when we come through the area.”
“Kelly was awesome with our dog, Poe! He met her for a meet and greet in advance and instantly loved her. When she came back for the stay, he was very excited to see her again. Poe was clearly comfy in Kelly's care and she did a wonderful job taking care of him and the house as well. I felt very comfortable leaving Kelly in charge for a few days while we went camping. I would definitely recommend her and would look to hire her again for additional jobs! Thanks, Kelly!”
“Octavia is awesome. She house-sat for us for 2.5 days. It was the first time our dog had stayed without us and he is really anxious. Octavia kept working to get him comfortable, cooked for him, sent us updates constantly and was really flexible in adjusting things to keep him less anxious. Our go-to person for Dudley!”
“We came home to very happy and relaxed kitties, I could tell they were well cared for. Our apartment was left clean, Stephanie was communicative, and she followed instructions. Thank you so much!”
“We reached out to Cordigen with a last-minute request, and she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and flexible from our very first messages and meeting. She immediately recognized that our pup needed support with calm greetings and was so thoughtful in how she approached her, speaking softly and offering gentle, kind reminders to Scout not to jump. Throughout the day, Cordigen was wonderfully communicative, sending photos and updates so we always knew how Scout was doing. She even played calming music on the TV and was happily playing with Scout in the backyard when I arrived home. At pickup, she gave a detailed rundown of the day, from bathroom breaks to how she helped Scout stay calm when she heard noises outside. We truly couldn’t be happier to have found Cordigen as a sitter and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for dog care, especially for dogs who may be a bit anxious or need extra help staying calm. Thank you, Cordigen!”
“Holly is great, she even took the time to come and meet me and my dog before our few days of dog sitting. Easy and quick to communicate with and has left my home nice and tidy.”
“10/10! Rosalva was great with our two dogs, and they can be a handful (reactive to other dogs and new people). After several meet & greets, we felt confident leaving the dogs in her care for an extended trip. And when we got home, the pups were happy & healthy and our home was just as we left it. Highly recommend!”
About: I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I spent my free time walking and caring for dogs. I loved getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they got the exercise and attention they needed. I truly miss it, and I’m excited to spend time caring for your pup like they’re my own. (I also love running please let me know if you want me to take your dog on a run!) Free on the weekends! During the week I’m free in the mornings or after work at 3pm! Would love to interact with animals more since I can’t own any in my apartment. I’m very used to big dogs and or aggressive cats it’s very situational but I’m confident I can handle any pet! I don’t offer boarding at my place unfortunately.
“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.”
“Angelika was absolutely wonderful while caring for my dog, Brie, and my home for five days. She is incredibly loving, responsible, and professional, and it was clear from the start that Brie was in the best hands. Throughout her stay, Angelika took exceptional care of Brie, giving her plenty of love and attention. I returned home to a happy dog, one who even looked for Angelika ! She also took amazing care of my home. We live close to the beach, and she even vacuumed before I returned, leaving everything spotless and beautifully cared for. That level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Angelika to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. She truly treats both your pets and your home with the utmost respect and care. I'll feel so confident to have her again”
“As a first time rover user i was pretty hesitant to use the app, but Tiana has ensured that i use it more going forward. She is prompt, shares lots of pet pics while im away, and i think my cat ended up missing her when i got back”
About: New to Rover? Use my promo code SARAHC42510 to get $20 off your first booking. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I specialize in small dogs, especially Chihuahuas, and understand the extra patience, attention, and care they often need. I’ve also cared for poodles and larger breeds, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I treat every pet like they’re my own, following their routine closely and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or cuddles, my goal is to make every dog happy while giving owners peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m available throughout the week and can work with your pet’s routine to provide reliable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routes, and any special needs. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times, and I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care as my own. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and in good hands.
“Anne was a fantastic dog sitter for our girl JoJo. She was responsible, helpful, and comforting for our dog while we were away. We came home to a happy dog with all needs met plus. We hope to book with Anne again.”
“Katie was absolutely fantastic—we couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with a new sitter. She went above and beyond from the very beginning, taking the time to do a thorough meet-and-greet and really listening to all the details about Tiger—his quirks, schedule, and medication routine. It was clear she was not only attentive but genuinely thoughtful in how she approached his care. During her stay, Katie was incredibly communicative and reliable. She followed all of our instructions perfectly while also incorporating some of her own training techniques—and we actually noticed positive improvements in Tiger after just four days, which was amazing to see. She also treated our home with so much care, leaving everything in pristine condition. She even went the extra mile by taking out the trash and starting laundry, which we truly appreciated. This was hands down one of the best experiences we’ve had with a first-time sitter, and we’re so excited to continue working with Katie. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“Grant was great. Not only did he keep Athena fed, walked, and safe, he also worked with her regarding various training issues, like having her wait at the door for permission to go through, barking, etc. She liked him the moment she met him, and he let me know how she was doing.”
“Darya was amazing! She sent me multiple daily updates with photos. The animals loved her right away which was very reassuring and she left my house very clean and even stripped the sheets! I will be using her again.”
“Scarlett took such wonderful care of our dog, Snow Cone! She was so kind, flexible to a couple of last minute changes, and took lots of great photos. She communicated really well with us, with very prompt responses, and asked great questions during the meet and greet. We are excited to book her again soon!”
“Marion was absolutely incredible—truly a 5-star experience from start to finish. She stepped in on very short notice to care for my cat Betty and a newly found cat, Ginger, and handled everything with such professionalism and kindness. She made sure all medications were given properly, kept up with their daily routines, and spent quality time playing with them so they felt comfortable and cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I especially appreciated the regular photo updates and her clear, consistent communication—it made being away so much easier. Marion went above and beyond in every way, and I can confidently say she’s the best sitter I’ve ever had. Highly, highly recommend!”

Kelsey is so wonderful! She’s extremely responsible, friendly and communicative. And most importantly our boys loved her! We received multiple updates and pictures throughout their time together and the boys were so mellow when we returned. We recommend Kelsey to all and will be using her again soon!! Thank you Kelsey!!
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.
I’m the kind of person who cancels plans because I don’t trust anyone with my pets. Not exaggerating. I turned down a wedding because the sitter I’d booked sent me a photo of my cat and I could see the water bowl was empty. Drove home that Midnight. Afterwards, I just stopped looking. Easier to stay home than go through that knot in your stomach when you’re three hours away wondering if your dog is actually okay or if “he’s doing great!” Is just what they text everyone. So when I say I’d hand my keys to Marion tomorrow and sleep through the night, that should tell you something. The first time, I did a one-night trial. Figured I’d feel it out, pick up early if something was off. What happened instead I got a video at 7pm of my cat - who takes 45 minutes to warm up to anyone - asleep on Marion’s lap. Not posed. Just… settled. You know what your cat looks like when they feel safe. That was it. I’ve booked Marion six times now. Here’s what’s different. She actually learned my cat. Not “cats” in general - my cat specifically. Knows he won’t eat if the bowl is near the door. Knows he gets restless at 4pm and needs more play time. Knows that when he sits by the window he’s not being cute, he’s anxious, and the fix is getting on the floor with him, not putting on the TV. I stopped sending my usual paragraph of instructions after the third visit because Marion already knew everything in it. That’s never happened with any sitter, ever. The thing people don’t realize until it’s too late is that most pet sitters are fine… until they’re not. Until your cat eats something weird and the sitter doesn’t notice for six hours. You won’t know until you come home and your pet is acting different and you’re piecing together what happened from a timeline that doesn’t add up. By then you’ve already paid and left a review and the damage is done. Marion sent me a photo once of a tiny scratch my cat got on a bush during a walk. Unprompted. With a note about what she cleaned it with. That’s the difference between someone who watches your pet and someone who actually cares about what happens to them. I actually adopted two more cats since then. I wouldn’t have done that if I didn’t know marion was there for whenever I need to travel. Honestly? Part of me doesn’t want to leave this review because I don’t want her calendar to fill up before my next trip. But she’s too good not to share.

FAQs for House Sitting - Los Trancos Woods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Los Trancos Woods on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,189 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Los Trancos Woods. 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 Trancos Woods 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 Trancos Woods 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 Trancos Woods 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 Los Trancos Woods. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
