âThis was my first time using Candice and my dogs were well taken care of. She communicated well, and was flexible and responsible. She went above-and-beyond and she has my recommendation.â

âKevin is always welcome to watch our four legged babies every time we have him the dogs look so comfortable. Theyâre not stressed out the he shows me pictures of how they are at home and they love him.â

âLeann was awesome! She stopped by for a pre-housesitting face-to-face, which I appreciated. She sent an AM and a PM update, with pictures, each day. She left everything in good shape as well. I will definitely book Leann again.â

âCassidy really helped us out last minute when other plans for a sitter fell through. The pups immediately liked her when she came for the initial meet and greet. She asked really good questions regarding their care and routines and sent frequent updates with pictures. We definitely recommend her and will be using her again.â

âMelanie was wonderful to work with. Fig needed cuddles, attention, and love as well as medication twice a day. She met all his needs so beautifully and he enjoyed spending time with her. We will be using Melanie again to take care of our boy.â

âMichael was great with my husky Jameson!! I was in town for a friends wedding and he watched my pup at the hotel I was staying at when I was at the ceremony and reception. Super friendly, communicative and lots of pics, my pup had a big smile in every single one so I know he was well taken cared of and having fun!â

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for almost my whole life and I have experience caring for them on both an emotional and physical level. I am currently a college student, so Iâll have plenty of time to drop by during the day and to stay over night! I am available every week day other than Tuesdays, and Iâm available most weekends. I am more than comfortable playing with cats and dogs, cuddling, and giving pets. I am also comfortable feeding them the correct proportions that are specified for each pet, taking them out for potty time, taking them out for walks (medium size dogs or smaller), and crating them if needed.
âHalle was wonderful with our pup while we were out of town. She was flexible with our schedule and gave us daily updates. I felt at ease on vacation knowing he was in good hands!â


âYianna was extremely professional and wonderful to my dog. She was very loving to my pup, who requires multiple medications. She was great with check- ins and very responsive to questions. She was respectful of our home. I would highly recommend her to anyone and would use her in the future.â

About: My partner and I both love hanging out and taking care of peopleâs pets, so weâve decided to do it together. We both grew up with dogs and cats respectively, and overall, just love animals. Weâd be more than happy to check in on your per, take them for a walk and make sure that they donât feel alone while you have to be out. We have three cats of our own; one of them has allergies that we perform shots on her for. If your pet has such needs, we have experience in that department! I work from home two weeks of the month currently and will be expecting to be fully home by February. During those weeks, I can come anytime of day but the other two weeks, Iâll be available Thursday-Sunday. Iâll confirm that your pet is healthy and ensure that theyâre comfortable with my presence / actions. Iâll also follow all instructions provided to me and share updates after each visit.

âPayton was amazing! Our dogs were happy staying home with friendly and safe visits. She even took care of the poop scooping without even being expected to. Thank you for a great first time with Rover, Payton.â

About: My name is Hunter and my wifeâs name is Hope, I am 25 and she is 24. We absolutely love animals. We both have several cats and dogs of our own. Iâve grown up in a family that have had lots of pets as well. Iâve been dog/ cat sitting for about 4 years now and I really enjoy doing it as a side hustle. I am able to give meditation and take your dogs for walks as requested by owners. I work a full time job during the week from 6am-2pm during the week. I have off on Thursdays and the weekends which I can be at your house anytime before or after then. I am able to do two drop in visits per day. I always make sure nothing is left out or down that pets can accidentally get ahold of. I also always supervise pets whether they are in the house or out in the yard.
âWe were really anxious about our first dog/house sitting gig, but Mack did a great job with our 3 needy and spoiled pups. We were gone for 5 nights. She sent many photos, and my pups loved her. We have 2 dogs that require medications, and she followed the instructions to the letter. Our house looked great when we got home, and my pups were excited to see us - but not overly so - which lets me know that they really enjoyed their time with her. I highly recommend her, and we will definitely use her again.â


About: I have taken care of many animals through out my life and iâve had them ever since I was 5 so I am confident in knowing how to take care of someone elseâs pets and the value of how important it is. I have many skills and experience with animals. I love being an asset to my community and love to make a difference. I am a Vet Tech and Iâm a sitter on the side. I am currently in school for Vet Tech through YTI and I am remote, so I have plenty of time to take care of lovely animals, I work at a vet three days a week as a vet assistant! I have 5 dogs and 3 cats but they are very friendly and would love to play with a new furry friend, my pets are very spoiled so other pets will get the very same treatment! I love taking dogs for walks and enjoy playing with animals and giving them the attention they desire. I will also travel if your fur baby needs a sitter. I have a trail behind my house in the woods where my dogs love to walk, and iâm sure your dog would too! I love playing with cats, they are lovely purring friends. I donât cage my dogs but if your fur baby needs crated I already have crates.
About: As an only child, I grew up with my dogs as my siblings and I have grown to adore them. I will provide playtime, walks, and unlimited cuddles for your best friend! My family and I currently have four dogs, Brooklyn, Whitney, Sammy, and Bourbon - They are all Labrador Retrievers and very well behaved. I have taken care of dogs of Rover parents, family, family friends, and neighbors for the past few years and it is such a fun experience! I am a firm believer that dogs are a blessing and they deserve the very best care! I am confident that I will help you give them that special care when you are not available. Pet care is an important and joyful part of my life, even with a full-time work schedule. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for your pet. I know that a loved pet is a happy pet, so I make it my priority to show your fur baby all of the love that I can while you are not home with them. This includes cuddles, play time, walks, and plenty of potty breaks!
âWe cannot recommend Jyllian enough. We have two big dogs and one is very quirky and anxious at times. Weâve never left them with a stranger before they always travel with us. Jyllian was wonderful with our boys, went above and beyond and we could tell from the pictures she shared every day that they were at ease and very comfortable with her already. She was wonderful, trustworthy, dependable, and treated them like her own - all things someone hopes for in a great pet sitter. We are so glad we found her and our boys have a new best friend!â

About: I've loved dogs since I was a child! I understand that dogs are more than pets- they're family! That's why I provide personalized, attentive care that goes beyond a simple walk or feeding schedule. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, relaxing stroll, overnight companionship, or someone to keep them company while you're away, I focus on creating a safe, loving, stress-free experience tailored to their individual needs and personality. As a mother I understand how important it is to find a quality care-giver you can trust. That same level of care, responsibility, patience, and attention is what I bring to every dog I walk and sit. My approach is rooted in patience, reliability, and attentiveness. I pay close attention to details, follow routines carefully, and make sure your dog receives affection, exercise, and the care they deserve. You'll receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to stay connected to your furry family member. Even though my family doesn't have a dog currently, my children would love to have one. I felt that pet sitting and dog walking would be a good way for my children to see what it's like to have a dog. I will make sure your dog will be well taken care of! I'm able to check on your dog and/or walk your dog throughout the day. I'll make sure your dog is well taken care of, given plenty of food, water, and attention! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your dog to run around while at my house! I also have children who love dogs. While pet sitting in your home, I will be professional, and respectful of your home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Wilson
Kevin stayed at my house with my two dogs for an entire week while I was away, and he did an excellent job. I have a 9âyearâold social, loving dog and a rescue who is very cautious and wary around strangers. Kevinâs calm, gentle personality made him a perfect match for both of them. Before my trip, he willingly came for several short visits so my rescue could get used to him at his own pace. While I was gone, he gave my little guy plenty of affection and was patient, kind, and respectful with my apprehensive rescue. He kept in touch throughout the week, updating me on how they were doing, which gave me great peace of mind. When I returned home, the house was exactly as I left it â tidy, organized, and well cared for. Kevin even ran the dishwasher and washed the linens before leaving! If youâre looking for someone you can truly feel comfortable trusting with both your pets and your home, Kevin is absolutely the person you want!

FAQs for House Sitting - Mount Wilson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,017 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Wilson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Wilson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Mount Wilson 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Wilson 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
