“David was able to help us out on very short notice. Despite the tight time frame he found the time to come by for a meet and greet, and took detailed notes on how to care for our fur babies. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gaia was amazing with our two dogs! They are not always comfortable with new people, and Gaia went above and beyond to make sure they felt safe and comfortable with her. Before staying with them, she came over for multiple meet-and-greets just to spend time with them and let them get to know her at their own pace. That meant so much to us. She then stayed with them for a few days, and we were able to actually relax knowing they were in such good hands. She was incredibly patient, reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Most importantly, our dogs were happy and comfortable with her, which says everything. We would absolutely trust Gaia with them again and highly recommend her!”
“Rachel was amazing! She was patient and bonded with my pets (despite barking at first), she asked great questions, sent me updates and photos, and even baked cookies! The place was in great shape when I got back, and I had no worries while I was gone. I'd definitely hire Rachel again!”
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I'm currently studying Animal Health Science and hope to eventually work in animal conservation. Over the years, I've had many different kinds of pets and have gained lots of hands-on experience caring for both my own animals and other people's pets. I'm hardworking, friendly, dependable, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal and their individual personality. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and make sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you're away! I am a college student looking to gain more experience with animals and earn extra money for living expenses. I am currently enrolled at Cal Poly Pomona as an animal health science major, but I'm living in Moorpark this semester. When it comes to potty breaks/walks, I’m especially careful with smaller dogs because of the potential risk of wildlife or other animals nearby. I’m also extra cautious around pools if in the backyard especially if there isn’t a fence or barrier around them. Every home and pet is different, so as long as the owner lets me know about any specific safety concerns or rules, I’m happy to follow them and make sure their pet stays safe!
“Emily is an amazing sitter!! She watched our 13 week old Golden Retriever puppy for 2.5 days and was so incredible with him. He can be a handful, but she is so patient and caring. Highly recommend her and we will be using her a lot more in the future!”
About: I have always grown up with big dogs and have dealt with reactive dogs as well. I know how to approach each dogs quirks when I walk them! I just graduated college and am currently job searching and walking dogs is a great way to get my steps in and fill my love for dogs as a side gig Whenever I enter my parents home or another’s home greeting the dogs with love is a must! My parents dogs are always on my mind and I am constantly thinking about if they are bored or need to use the bathroom. My heart strings are pulled anytime I see a dog on the street and go out of my way to give it water or food.
About: Hi! I'm a dog-lover with a flexible schedule, so I can pop in for visits or take your pup(s) out for a good walk any time of day. My daughter and I have two dogs of our own (Luna and Sunny), so I know firsthand what it takes to keep a dog happy, active, and well cared for. This isn't a job to me, it's just what I love doing. Whether it's a quick potty break, a longer walk, or a check-in with some cuddles and playtime, I'll treat your dog like part of the pack. If you'd like, one of my own pups can occasionally tag along on walks too; happy to chat about what works best for your dog I recently moved back to Moorpark, so I have plenty of open availability for walks and drop-in visits. I'm an early riser for an early AM walk and I enjoy an evening stroll before it gets too late. I am very familiar with dog safety when it comes to making sure collars/harnesses are on and leashes are fully attached before opening any doors. I also take my time when passing other dogs on leashes (just in case).
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is that I’ve lived with animals my entire life and truly love caring for them. I have experience with both cats and dogs, and I understand their routines, personalities, and needs. I own cats, and many of my friends have dogs and cats that I’ve helped take care of, giving me hands-on experience with different temperaments. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I care for my own pets every day, which includes feeding, cleaning, playtime, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. I plan my schedule around pet care, so I’m used to being consistent, on time, and attentive. Because of this, it’s easy for me to fit pet sitting, walking, and check-ins into my routine and give each pet the time and care they need. I care for pets by following their usual routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home or a client’s home, I provide fresh food and water, regular walks or playtime, litter box or cleanup care, and lots of attention. I respect the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and house rules. I always keep the environment clean and make sure pets are supervised and never left feeling stressed or ignored.
About: Growing up I always had cats and dogs and have loved caring for them. Currently I am living on a small alpaca ranch and have gotten to experience taking care of alpacas, goats, chickens, horses, donkeys, dogs, cats, and lizards which all have unique needs. Whether your pet is simple and easy to care for or has a complex routine I am excited to help in any way I can! I'm currently a full-time student so the times I'm most available are Monday-Thursday before 9 A.M. and after 4 P.M. as well as Friday after 2 P.M. and Sunday after 6 P.M. If your dog would like to beat the heat with me at any of these times shoot me a message! If you book me my sole focus will be on your pet and making sure they have a safe and enjoyable time. I have experience with large dogs and pulling and can handle any interactions with other humans and dogs the way your family prefers. I am also able to manage multiple medications and schedules for pets and will take notes on anything your pet may need.
“Austin was great! Have already watched our giant dog Sassy twice. Great with our energetic girl. Was a great communicator and our house was nice and tidy when we returned home. Thanks Austin!”
“Jeffrey was amazing! He kept us posted constantly while we were out of town. It helped us give us a peace of mind and we will definitely be booking him again in the near future.”
“I highly recommend Meghan! She did such a great job taking care of my dog and my home while I was away. The house was spotless when we returned and although my dog can be anxious, she warmed right up to Meghan during her stay. She was also very quick to respond and sent lots of updates!”
About: Hi there, I’m Britney! If I’m not exploring a local coffee shop, you’ll probably find me hanging with my pup. I’m a lifelong dog lover who believes every pup deserves plenty of love, belly rubs, and playtime. Whether we’re out on a walk, throwing the ball or snuggling on the couch…I’ll make sure your fur baby feels safe, happy, and so loved while you’re away! I currently work part time at Starbucks so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am happy to work my schedule around for your pups needs! My pup is family and I’ll treat yours no different! Happy to give them my undivided attention and love and also have a sweet, loving pup that’s happy to be a friend and companion if needed!
About: I have had around thirteen years of cat care experience, having owned four cats, a tarantula, and a snake throughout my entire life, and currently volunteer at an animal shelter. I have had a lot of opportunities to learn how to take care of cats and their body languages, so I am very experienced with knowing when to back off or if a cat wants love or pets; I also know what to look out for to prevent cat fights from happening or how to break one up. Although most of my experience is in cats, I am always open to learning new things or how to take care of dogs, and I am always willing to walk your dog or house sit for them because I am someone who loves animals and will never shy away from a chance to meet them! I am still a student right now, so I am only free in the afternoons and evenings during the weekdays, but I am totally free on weekends (minus 2-5 PM on Saturdays where I volunteer). I am also looking to get a part time job so my schedule might shift around. I will happily send you pictures or video updates of your puppies or kittens, and I am also extremely willing to play with them using their favorite toys, and I don’t mind spending extra time for snuggling sessions while I’m there! ❤️ My house is usually very quiet save for the occasional cara passing by, and the cats are allowed to wander about and do whatever they want. I will also never try to force an interaction with a cat if the cat does not want it. I brush and groom my cats if the opportunity comes up, and is open to snuggling with a cat anytime 🥰
“Talk about a dog whisperer . He had our big dog and our little one. The dogs can’t interact and have opposite personalities, size and ages and he did an amazing job with both. Even the little one who doesn’t like strangers warmed up to him. I knew both dogs were well taken care of and Ever was very communicative . Will 100% recommend him and have him watch them again”
About: Thank you for visiting my profile! My name is Carly and I am a Moorpark native who has recently graduated from UCLA with three degrees: a BS in neuroscience, a BS in biology, and a BA in psychology. I bring a high level of responsibility, organization, and attention to detail to my pet-sitting services. Growing up with 2-3 dogs (right now I have a mini aussie and a red heeler!) has equipped me with the skills to handle multiple animals simultaneously, care for older dogs, and exhibit patience with puppies. My experience extends to caring for a cat in my college apartment, showcasing my versatility with various pets. What truly sets me apart is my genuine love for animals; I am a caring and compassionate individual who views pet-sitting not just as a job, but as a passion. I work in the pharmaceutical industry as a biologic purification process engineer, but still love to help take care of animals simply because ai love it. I also spend my free time volunteering at the Moorpark Teaching Zoo! My background in handling different pet needs, combined with a natural affinity for effective communication, makes me the ideal choice for pet owners seeking a dedicated and loving caregiver. As a recent UCLA graduate who moved home to save money after college, I have lots of free time to care for your pets! I have a job at a biopharmaceutical company that I have not yet started, so in the meantime, I hope to meet and care for your furry friends! Respect and clear communication are paramount in my approach to caring for pets, especially in my client's residence. I prioritize establishing clear boundaries and open communication before starting any pet care assignment to ensure that I fully understand and adhere to the specific requests and preferences for both the home and the pets. Respecting the sanctity of the client's space and community is very important to me, and I am committed to maintaining a clean, organized, and secure environment. By setting clear expectations and respecting boundaries, I aim to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners.
“Sara is amazing and took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. I usually feel a lot of anxiety when we leave for long periods of time, but her frequent updates and communication really put me at ease. She is very trustworthy and caring, and we will most definitely book her again in the future! :)”
“We just completed a long stay while we were abroad for nearly 2 weeks. Before leaving, Tyrion started having stomach issues right before our trip and had a new medication. Mr. Steve was very accommodating and gave updates on Tyrion throughout our being away. Mr. Steve was great and sent photos of his dog, Sadie, playing with Tyrion. Now that Sadie is gone, Tyrion definitely misses her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Moorpark on Rover is $67.41 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 4,547 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Moorpark. 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 Moorpark 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 Moorpark 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 Moorpark 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 Moorpark. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
