“Rebekah did a wonderful job caring for our dogs. We had some caterpillars show up unexpectedly and she was able to take care of getting them set up, with no problems. Thanks again Rebekah!”
“Katie is responsive, reliable, understanding, and our pets love her! She is willing to give nervous pets time to warm up to her and play with the more outgoing ones. She also kept us up to date with pictures during her stay. Would 100% recommend!!”
“Caroline was great with our dog + 2 cats, again! I would recommend her for your pet needs, she is very responsive, attentive, and easy to work with on any thing that may come up before or during the sitting.”

“Absolutely the best sitter I have had!! She sent details of each day and the best pictures. My house and my dogs were well taken care of and I couldn't have asked for anything more!! Ashley is awesome!!!”
“Zair was an excellent cat sitter for my little ones. Prompt, responsive, communicative, and helped my cats feel comfortable during my time away from home. I would highly recommend her services.”
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was 12, both cats and dogs. I’ve loved taking care of my pets, and treat them like members of the family, because they are! My best friend’s dad growing up was a Veterinarian, so I was fascinated with pet behavior. I’ve helped to take care of family and friends’ pets when they’re away, and it’s one of my favorite things! I am currently job-hunting, working part-time where I can, and working on a degree, so my schedule is pretty flexible at the moment. I have a dog of my own at our house, and he has someone here to look after him alongside me. I look after a family pet in our home, with shared responsibilities. I cannot board any pets at my home, but I am happy to help take care of, and make sure your pets feel safe, and are well taken care of while you are away or need some help!
About: I have experience caring for my own two dogs and previously cared for my cat for many years. Through caring for my own pets, I’ve gained experience with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention or comfort. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, love, and care I would give my own. I attend college fully online, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. Your pet will receive consistent care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and walks. Because I attend college fully online, I’m home most of the time and can provide frequent bathroom breaks, exercise, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. For everyone’s safety and comfort, my own dogs will always be kept completely separate from any pets in my care. They will never be in the same room or have direct contact. This allows me to provide a calm, safe environment while giving your pet my full attention and ensuring every animal remains comfortable.
“We are so appreciative Ryan could last minute accommodate our request. We were desperate to find someone a week out from our trip as our normal dog sitter cancelled on us, and he was able to spend the weekend at our house. Our animals were well taken care of and he left our house in great shape! He even washed the bedding and took out the trash which was so nice. I definitely would rebook. Thanks again!!”
About: With an energetic pup of my own, I am no stranger to the needs of fur babies. Consistency is key when it comes to pet care and training. I will make sure your pup(s) get plenty of exercise with a walk around your local neighborhood. Each pet is unique and I will be certain to cater to your individual pet’s needs. But no matter what, I will be certain that each pet gets the same loving care as if they were one of my own. I am currently very flexible in my schedule so I can offer walks or drop ins for potty breaks and daily enrichment or house sitting for more comprehensive care for your pet when you’re away! I would love to check on your fur baby if you're busy so they don't get lonely! Personally, I have my own rambunctious pup named Lila who loves treats, walks, and attention. I would treat your dog like my own in care and affection!
“Jenna had her hands full with my two pups for sure! She did a fantastic job taking care of them and was super responsive with sending me updates and pictures each day. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Cheryl was great with my little pups and worked around their schedule- they are early risers. House was clean when I came home and most importantly, the dogs were safe.”
“Shelby always does a great job with our small, anxious dog. She does great with keeping him on his normal routine, meds, feedings, and playtime. We love knowing our dog is in good hands when out of town :)”
“Cheryl was great. She communicated with me the entire time and provided a bunch of pictures to make me feel better about leaving them. She was very kind and understanding of my dogs individual needs and treated them amazingly well. I would use Cheryl again without a doubt.”
“Wonderful experience! Elizabeth was very sweet with our dogs! They seemed to love her! She was very communicative and followed our requests and asked great questions! And I love all the pics and the video we received! She also left a lovely card in our screen for when we got home! Thank you Elizabeth! We will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. Grew up dog sledding so I am very confident in caring for high energy dogs. I have also had cats my whole life. I currently live with 2 senior cats. One is in remission from being a diabetic so I know how to care for a pet that needs extra love. I currently work from home during the day and can be available anytime before 3pm. From 3-8pm I need to be onsite for work. Most weekends I am free. I treat my pets like family. I will make sure they get the correct amount of food/water/exercise but will also be there to make sure they are having fun and feeling loved.
“Abigail was wonderful! She was very friendly, warm, and caring toward my dogs. It was clear she genuinely enjoys being around animals, which made me feel comfortable leaving them in her care. I had a great experience and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

Cheryl is a sweet lady and did a great job taking care of our dog and home. She sent pictures and gave updates multiple times/day and even sent us a video! She happily did everything we asked her to do and even stayed an hour longer than requested because our dog wasn’t settling down well for bed. We highly recommend Cheryl for dog and house sitting!
Dylan was great with our two dogs and cat, even providing extra help since one of our dogs was still recovering from a recent surgery. He was very respectful of our home and provided frequent, thoughtful and often humorous updates about all our pets! Would highly recommend Dylan to anyone as he is a true animal lover!
Drew was phenomenal with Meeko and Belle. I was traveling abroad for two weeks, and it was such a blessing to find someone who can genuinely care for blind pets—especially an elderly one with a younger, mischievous sibling. Drew was incredibly responsive, sent regular updates, and took amazing care of both the pets and the house. Belle is blind, senior, and sometimes experiences separation anxiety, but Drew was patient, gentle, and attentive with her. Meeko is a curious troublemaker, and Drew kept him stimulated while keeping the “trouble” under control. I’d 100% recommend Drew to anyone. I’ve already told my coworkers and friends—he’s truly exceptional.
Madeline is awesome. This was the second time she has watched my two dogs. She stayed for four days this time. I received numerous updates and photos. When I checked in Madeline was always quick to respond. I highly recommend her. Madeline is welcome any time she’s available.

The average cost of House Sitting in McClellan Air Force Base is $62 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $62 and $79 per night.

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 McClellan Air Force Base 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 McClellan Air Force Base 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 McClellan Air Force Base 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.

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.
