“Nichole is the best! Second time we’ve used her for dog sitting at our home. She leaves the house so untouched sometimes I’m not even sure she cooked anything for over a week lol but I’m sure she ate at some point. Our dogs love her!”
“Sara did a great job taking care of our darling gizmo. They kept me updated everyday with photos and comments. I appreciate the way our house looked like no one had stayed there! Gizmo was well taken care of. I would 100% book with Sara again.”
“Danielle was responsive, took time to meet my dog before the booking, and communicated well throughout the process. She took good care of dog and was even flexible with my return. Highly recommended!”
“This is our second booking with Rachel, and she is the best! Our three kiddos are always so well take care of when she's here. If you're looking for a great, trustworthy dog sitter, we can't recommend Rachel enough! Thank you Rachel!!”
“Roxanne was so great with my little pup. She sent me photos and gave me updates throughout my trip and it felt great to know Macchiato was in good hands. Roxanne dog sat at my place and left it immaculate when she left. I'd definitely have Roxanne back again.”
“Braydon was an excellent communicator and went above and beyond by mopping up muddy footprints left by 4 dogs. He sent lots of pictures and regularly checked in with me to let me know how things were going. I would definitely recommend Braydon to any one who needs dog walker and or house sitter.”
About: I have a genuine connection to animals and care deeply for them. In my own home I care for a senior dog and two bunnies. I always give my animals my first and my best. My schedule is flexible as I prepare for graduate school. My goal is to make some connections with families that need additional pet care that I can work my schedule around to accommodate theirs. In my client's home I will be sure to understand and fulfill all of the specific expectations they have for their pets. I will provide love, comfort and a safe environment for any and all pets. While you are away, at work or just need a little extra support I will make sure your sweet pet feels all the love they are missing.
“This was ourfirst experience with Rover and we could not have been more pleased with Madison! She cared for our pets as if they were her own. Prior to her visit, we had a vet emergency and explained the issue and asked her to keep an extra eye out him. Well our pet had the issue come up while away and Madison did such a great job notifying immediately and took to the vet to receive the medical attention. In addition, during her visit, she sent updates on all the other pets. I highly recommend Madison!!”
“Rachel was so amazing! This is my official first time using Rover and she was amazing. Great communication, left the house clean and updated me throughout my trip. Will definitely use her for any future trips for my pup!”
“Sarah was punctual, communicative, and so sweet with my dog. I appreciated her short turnaround response and hope to use her again soon for my frequent work trips. Highly recommended! Thank you!”
“Evelyn was nothing short of amazing! She took care of two crazy GSPs and made sure they were happy and healthy. One of ours needed medication and special attention while we were away and it did not phase her at all. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Cheyenne is amazing! This was the first time we had to leave our dog for an extended period of time. Cheyenne was great at keeping me updated on how he was doing and all the fun he was having! He is a playful boy and needs quite a bit of attention, and Cheyenne was ready and willing. His energy is not always easy to manage, but we came home to a calm, relaxed boy! Cheyenne also took meticulous care of our gecko. She can be fussy with new people but warmed right up to Cheyenne! We returned home to a spotless house and happy animals! Overall Cheyenne was extremely mindful in every step of the care she provided and we will absolutely be reaching out again!”
“Matthew was amazing as always! Sent daily pics, updated me on anything new. Cleaned up after himself when he left. Thank you again Matthew for being so great.”
“As an anxious senior dog mom I could not have asked for a better dog/ house sitter while we were out of the country!! Sent me so many updates & pictures every day and stayed on top of all the niche things our trio of pups require. She even noticed a poisonous snake (tbh idk if i would’ve seen it) in our yard and took the proper precautions with the dogs without hearing back from me yet! I was so nervous to leave our gremlins for so long and about the time difference incase anything came up, but my mind was at ease the whole time and that says a lot (:”
“I’ve never left my 2 dogs with just anyone ever. They’re both 11 years old. Meet Sierra…….who I couldn’t have asked for better to care for my 2 special needs dogs(diabetics). Knowing my boys were well cared for made our trip that much more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be rebooking for future vacations.”
“Grey was AMAZING!! We are so grateful we found him to watch our babies while we were both on military assignments. He went ABOVE AND BEYOND to take care of them and we hope we can welcome him to our home again soon!! 10 stars!!”
“Will was very attentive to Penny. Checked in on her, fed her at same time everyday and stayed overnight with her. When I came back on Sunday, she was very content, and not stressed at all. I will use Will again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Olmos Park is $42
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Olmos Park
Danielle was great. She was very attentive to all instructions including special feeding instructions, and managed our Great Pyrenees Lily, who has quite a mind of her own, very well, and kept us posted several times a day. The house was left in good order. We will ask her to come again.
Ericka was very attentive and caring to our two cats during our 6 day trip. She was always sure to send updates and pictures which was a big relief. One of our kitties is shy and apprehensive towards strangers, but grew comfortable with Ericka. She followed our detailed instructions and went above and beyond to make sure the house was in order before we came home. We trust Ericka with our little ones and are so glad to have found her. We hope to book her again in the future.
Nev is the BEST! I can see why they have the reviews and repeat clients that they do! I was so fortunate to have Nev stay at my home with my yellow lab for a week. He was spoiled rotten, but in the best way of course! I need to plan some trips so Ellis can have his playmate back again!! Thank you, Nev~
We booked Parker to watch our 2 dogs for 5 days in our home. One of our dogs is very shy and timid but Parker was able to get her to trust her on the first day. She has a big heart for animals and the care she provided was very evident. We did have an issue on the last day with us getting back home at a certain time but Parker was quick to respond and resolve the issue in a timely manner.
Amazing sitter! Meet & greet went well- she was thorough- asked good questions and was kind to the dogs and cat! The sit itself went wonderfully, she sent photos and we got home to a very tidy home with a clean litter box and clean dog bowls! We would definitely recommend and will work together again!
Kayla once again did a great job taking care of my two dogs, one of whom is a challenging, picky eater and also needs special care due to a spinal problem. She texted and sent pics and updates several times a day. I felt very comfortable leaving my babies in her care.
This is the second time Jessica saved my sanity :) When life throws you a curve ball and you suddenly need care for your fur baby, you can count on her! She is reliable, gives lots of lovin’, keeps in contact and sends great photos. I miss my pup while I’m gone but I know she’s in excellent hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Olmos Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Olmos Park on Rover is $38.85 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 1,747 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Olmos Park. 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 Olmos Park 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 Olmos Park 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 Olmos Park 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.

- 97% 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.
