“Thomas took great care of my cat. He provided lots of updates for me, entertainment for her, and was especially attuned to her needs. I will definitely be asking for his help in the future!”
“Wow! What a relief to have found Victoria! She is kind and sweet, loves animals and was so sweet to mine! I was able to go on a last minute trip with my family and relax knowing they were in good hands!”
“Christina was great with our puppy. She took him for walks, played with him and sent lots of pictures and videos. The house was clean and I felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her and her staying in our home.”
“Kimberly was wonderful! So reliable and attentive the entire time. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again! -Beth and Knox”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing! She sent several photos for the kids and I and over communicated everything! Teddy absolutely loved his time with Jennifer and was well taken care of. 🐾”
“Jace is the absolute best dog sitter in the Fresno area especially if you have a dog that needs a little extra attention, has a specific routine they need, or some detailed instructions that they need followed like our dog Sissy. When Jace came to meet the dogs they came prepared having read the instructions we shared via the app. They also came with questions and took careful notes to make sure they had a clear understanding of everything that the dogs would need. While we were away, Jace checked in regularly with photos and updates about what they were doing. They were proactive and asked about some of our dogs needs that weren't clarified in the instructions we left. Jace also quickly followed up when we had questions about how things were going. Jace was also an incredibly great guest in our home. They kept up with their own dishes and left our home as tidy as we left it. Jace is an absolute professional when it comes to pet care and you will not be disappointed. The level of thoughtfulness, consideration, and care for our animals was unparalleled and second to none. Its clear our dogs Barks and Sissy made a new friend in Jace and are likely looking forward to the next time they will spend with them! I would recommend Jace to anyone!”
“Thanh-Mai was great with our separation anxiety boy. He immediately took to her even though he’s typically shy. She was super enthusiastic & well knowledged about dogs. We felt safe that our dog was in great hands. She provided updates and reassured that he was happy and comfortable. I’d definitely recommended having her care for your pets :)”
About: I have a special place in my heart for senior pets. For the past 25 years, I have been a foster parent to senior cats. Giving them the love and comfort and individualized care they deserve period. I have had up to 11 different types of cats in my home at a time. I also would feed and take care of the feral cats as well. If they would get sick I took them to the vet and would take care of them. Some could go back out side a few need to have inside care for they rest of there life. I have a very flexible schedule since I'm a real estate agent. Which is an independent contractor I have plenty of time during the day and at evening to take care of your fur babies and make sure that they're healthy and happy. I have 5 cats at home. They are all seniors, Persians, very well taken care of and spoiled. They have the run of the house. They have their own room which is the sunroom that I had rebuilt for them. With lots of light but yeah, cool enough in the summer and warm enough in the winter for them. And my brother also helps play with them. And take care of them.
About: I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs of all different breeds. I have one animal of my own and he is the love of my life. I have also recently graduated CNA school so reliability, trust, and care quality are of utmost importance to me. I recently moved to Fresno for CNA school and just graduated. I have plenty of free time on my hands and am looking to fill it with an activity I love, like taking care of furry friends:). My schedule is very open. I am looking to take care of animals in their own home to provide the most comfort. I have reliable transportation and an open schedule. I am beyond willing to help with walks, feeding, love, and any other necessary care.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs while growing up since I was 7. I learned how to feed, walk, bathe the pets I had. And learned more things about dogs when I had my dog Oreo in 2020. I'm working part-time at a clinic, as BT which is 3 to 6 hrs depending on days I'm scheduled. I'm doing this as a side gig. I'll guarantee to help and take care of your pets for you. Pet sitting at someone's house I'll be respectful and responsible, making sure your fur babies is in the best care on my watch.
About: I have been trusted since childhood to watch over my neighbors' pets and have experience with two pit bulls and countless cats. I don't mind giving medicine, as my senior cat took some for years. I work full-time during the week, but am free all weekend to give your furry friend some love. I am generally active, so walks in the morning and evening are not an issue and I can easily integrate them into my daily routine. I can easily crate pets, love to take daily walks, and play for about an hour or two with my own pets, so I do not mind addressing the needs of your pet based on their energy level.
“Judy’s fantastic! She was great at communicating, great to work with, and most importantly, great with Wesley. We appreciate her watching over him and our home while we were gone!”
“Tiffany was amazing with my girls! She is sweet, prompt, a great communicator and very easy to work with. I’m glad my dogs got to enjoy her company when I was gone!”
“Dalene watched my 5 month old golden retriever, Walter, for a two day period and she was great. She kept my lad active and was in constant contact while I was away. Walter was very content and happy when I came home, which is a sign he had the best companionship with Dalene. I cannot recommend her enough.”
“Shauna really connected with my animals. The fastest trust building I have experienced with a pet sitter. She has a lot of animal knowledge which was helpful. I for sure will be requesting her services again for all my upcoming trips. Please be confident in selecting her for your own personal needs. You won’t be disappointed.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Muscatel
This was my first time using Rover and I had a wonderful experience with Antonia. She was polite, professional, responsive and really cared a lot about the well being of my dogs. She cared for the house well and I definitely recommend her for any pet/house sitting jobs. Looking forward to working with her again!
Thanh-Mai took great care of our pets while we were away. She did more than what we asked for and went above and beyond to make sure our pets are well. It was raining during our trip out of town and she did not mind coming in more often to check on them. She also made sure they were fed, walked and not be in their crates for too long. Thanh-Mai communicated very well with what she was planning to do and kept us updated with pictures and videos several times a day. She took pride in her job and it shows. We would highly recommend Thanh-Mai with anyone, and will definitely book with her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Muscatel on Rover is $47.73 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 539 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Muscatel. 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 Muscatel 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 Muscatel 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 Muscatel 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 Muscatel. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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.
