“Letitia has hung with our dog a few times now, and it always goes great! She just did an overnight for the first time, and went above and beyond by comforting our dog through a wind storm in the middle of the night. She is very responsive and friendly, and we’re so thankful for her.”

“Gabby did an excellent job house sitting for our two large dogs while we were away on vacation. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos playing with our dogs and taking them on walks. Our dogs took to her immediately and we came home to happy, well cared for fur babies. Knowing our pups were so well taken care of allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our vacation. We would rebook with Gabby in a heartbeat for our next time out of town!”

“If I could leave 10 stars for Amirah, I would! She communicates very quickly, her personality is so incredibly sweet and helpful, her voice is pure puppy love!! even though we booked last minute because the other person fell through Amirah was ready and so easy to work with. She put us at ease just a few days before our trip. She did a meet and greet was very flexible with the schedule. She offered additional perks, brought doggy snacks, and toys. Sent me pictures and videos and just went above and beyond. I told my friend about her service and without even vetting her , wants to use her for our next trip ! thank you so much Amirah you made it possible for us to relax and not worry about the dogs. I got to enjoy myself because I could see how happily the dogs followed you out for walks. Normally we have to beg and plead for them to go outside for a walk, but we could see they followed with tails wagging. Till we meet again! Do not hesitate, and if you’re on the fence and want additional feedback about Amirah please reach out”

“Laurie did a great job with our little Rowdy! It was great to get to take our grandkids to the NASCAR race and not worry about him as he was able to stay in his own house (RV). Thank you Laurie for taking good care of our little guy!”

“Rachel was absolutely amazing from start to finish! She was very prompt with her response to my initial query, quickly scheduled a meet and greet, and came prepared with questions. She is very professional, reliable, and absolutely loves animals. Buster had a great time with Rachel! She stayed with him for three days and I came home to a spotless home and a happy dog. She reviewed all the instructions in depth and consistently provided me with updates and cute little videos of Buster. I will absolutely be using Rachel again in the future and can wholeheartedly recommend her to others.”

About: I have 6+ years of animal care experience from animal rescues, to doggy boarding and daycare facilities, to puppy training, and now currently working at an animal hospital while in school for a degree in Animal Science. My love for animals big and small is sometimes more than even I can handle 😂 I hope to be able to care and love your pet just as much as you do! Animal care is apart of my daily life! Not only because I care for the pets that come to the animal hospital I currently work at, but also because I always help any stray dog/cat, hurt critter, or even a worm stuck on the sidewalk (true story🥴) I make it my life mission to help those who cannot help themselves and love those who need it the most. I believe the highest care for all animals is a non-negotiable. I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is well loved, cared for, and enriched! I treat them like I would anyone else, because I believe that they do have thoughts, feeling, wants, and needs and I make it my goal to meet and surpass them!
“Kat took good care of our two dogs as well as our home. She checked in with me a few times and sent photos. We have one dog with congestive heart failure that requires her to take medication 2 x day. Kat was able to administer the medication as necessary.”
About: I have been the go to pet sitter for family and friends. I lovingly cared for my own dog from puppy, through her senior years. I know how much animals/pets have meant to me, and I will treat your beloved pets/family members with the same love and attention as if they were my own. I currently work remotely from home full time and have the time and flexibility to play, walk, feed, and care for your pups or cats. I am available most weekends with notice. I have a fenced home with 2 friendly dogs. Please let me know all your pets needs: • Frequency of walks • Emotional triggers • Meal times • Likes and Dislikes • Medical history • Bathroom schedule
About: I come from a genuine position of wanting to understand how the animal is feeling and what is motivating their behavior. I have experience with cats and dogs from growing up with them and from pet sitting as a kid. I also worked at an animal sanctuary so I have experience with the animals such as pigs, chickens, ducks, and goats. I treat all animals with compassion and care. They are like children in that they each have unique personalities, and deserve autonomy, while at the same time needing to be cared for and protected. I am always learning about how to better communicate with animals and understand their needs. From watching videos to taking classes and reading books, I seek out new perspectives on animal behavior because it is an ever-changing field of study A couple years ago, when my dog started peeing in the house, punishment was not on my mind, I could see from her body language that she felt bad and wasn't doing it on purpose so I had her checked out and learned it was a medical problem not a behavioral one. This is the type of care I will bring to your pets. I'm currently working part-time with flexible hours so I'll be able to stop by multiple times or even stay with your pet for hours or days. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighbors. I am respectful of other people's homes, I leave things the way I find them and do my best to understand the unique needs, routines and personality of every animal.
“Nichole was absolutely perfect. She took great care of my dog Kaya and left our house in pristine condition, which is always appreciated. She was very communicative and I was definitely put at ease while on our camping trip about any concerns over Kaya. Highly recommended. I will be contacting Nichole in the future :)”


“It was our first time leaving Luna (our rescue who we believe was previously traumatized) so we were a little anxious. We couldn't have asked for better. Norma was amazing. She stayed in our home to look after Luna and looked after both as if they were her own. The house looked amazing and Luna was calm and relaxed, clearly well looked after. Norma sent us regular updates and pictures which were much appreciated. We would highly recommend Norma if you are looking for someone who is conscientious with a genuine love of animals. Thanks Norma x”
“Kirsten is a godsend! She handled my 2 needy dogs and 4 cats without any problem! I felt totally relaxed knowing my babies were well taken care of ! I highly recommend her 😊”

About: I have a deep love for animals and years of practical experience caring for pets of various breeds and sizes. I am highly attentive to their body language, energy levels, and specific daily routines, ensuring they always feel safe, happy, and well-loved while their owners are away. I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to your pets. Whether it is morning walks, afternoon playtime, or overnight boarding, I can easily accommodate your pet's regular feeding and exercise routines without any rush. Safety is always my top priority. When watching pets, I maintain a secure, hazard-free environment and closely supervise all interactions. I strictly follow the owner's specific instructions regarding diet, medication, and outdoor habits, and I will keep you updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 9 from neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with pet sitting reptiles, dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies and even horses. I own a bearded dragon and two small dogs, both potty trained with a doggy door available for them to come inside and out. I volunteered for a few years at my local animal shelter with the newborn kittens , walking dogs, and sometimes helping with their pigs and goats. Both of my dogs are friendly with others. I'm currently working part time so I am mostly available all week other than mornings on Friday (10am-1pm) and Saturday (9am-12pm). If it's alright for me to be able to leave to go to work I can pet sit all week long. My own dogs get fed early in the morning then again right around dinner time. Let me know your dogs feeding schedule and I will make sure to implement it. My dogs are also regularly walked so I can easily bring yours along or walk them separately depending on what works best. I have two small dogs, both uncrated and well behaved/friendly. I have a doggy door available for your dogs, so if they are used to coming inside and out, they are able to use it. I do want to put on here that I have a full concrete backyard with walls on all sides and a pool. So definitely make sure your pup is okay with being near a pool. And if not, I can also put up gates to block the pool, just message and let me know. Dogs are blocked off and trained to stay out of the living room because we have carpet but they have access to the rest of the house, not allowed on any furniture other than the couches we have outside and their own doggy beds.
“Lily watched our cat Raja while we were away on vacation and did an excellent job! Our cat can be difficult at first when meeting new pet sitters, but within a day Lily was able to become best friends with our cat. She sent numerous photo and video updates daily to keep me in the loop which I really appreciated! She followed all of our house rules and we came home to a clean apartment and a really happy and well taken care of cat! I highly recommend Lily for pet sitting and I know we will be using her for all of our future cat sitting needs! She's a gem!”

“Hermes was so awesome with our (challenging) dog and two cats! He watched them for two weeks and sent lots of updates and pics while we were on vacation. Our pets absolutely loved him and we felt really secure knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely book again!”

About: I previously worked for one year at a professional cattery, where I cared for cats of different ages, personalities, and special needs. I truly love animals—I currently have two cats and a chinchilla—so pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I’m familiar with basic pet health, behavior, and stress signals, and I always pay close attention to each pet’s comfort and safety. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing, or comforting shy or sensitive pets, I approach every animal with patience, gentleness, and genuine care. I work on Sundays and Mondays, but I have flexible availability on the rest of the week. I’m fully available for visits and cat sitting from Tuesday to Saturday, and I can often adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s routine. I always prioritize safety and a calm environment. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and well-organized to ensure your pet stays comfortable. I’m experienced in handling different temperaments, and I always introduce new pets slowly and respectfully. With my knowledge of basic pet care and behavior, I make sure each animal feels safe, understood, and relaxed throughout their stay.
About: Ive been caring for dogs since 2010. From Shih tzus to Weimaraners. I am very understanding of dogs’ needs at any ages, especially senior dogs. For the past 6 years I’ve been caring for cats as well, fully getting to know what goes into cat care. Caring for cats has been such a great experience. I’ve become close to an expert when anticipating a cats needs and wants. I’m comfortable with cats that are super friendly to cats that are super shy and keep to themselves. I currently have full availbility and can care for pets anytime during the day, afternoon, evening and overnight. I am very flexible with my schedule and can work with most schedules. I never leave my dogs unattended in the backyard because while it is completely fenced off they are curious and can sometimes find ways to go get into things. I also never let them off the leash in the front yard. I monitor eating time to make sure no one eats the others food. I also specially prepare their food based on needs (vitamins, mix-ins, microwaving food, etc). Also putting on coats or sweaters if it’s too cold. For my cat I never let her go outside so I’m very diligent when I let the dogs out to the backyard. I prepare her food as well similar methods to the dogs. I keep up with her nail trimming and brushing as well as keep her litter box clean and tidy. They all have had different medications at different times so im very use to keeping track of different medications needed per pet. When weve had chincillas, guinea pigs and fish, Im always very attentive to how they are. This entails monitoring them if they are getting time outside of their enclosure, cleaning up after them and making sure the other animals in home are respectful of their space :). Many times I have had to redirect my cat away from the fish tank with either a churu treat or toy lol :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,207 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Baldy. 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 Mount Baldy 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 Mount Baldy 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 Mount Baldy 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.
