“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.”
“Grey was an absolute delight! He consistently went above and beyond to ensure the well-being of our fur babies. He diligently took care of them, kept us informed and updated daily, and showed great consideration for our home. We would be thrilled if Grey could watch the fur babies again!”
About: I have had pets my whole life, and have been petsitting for friends and family for over two decades. I have extensive experience with positive reinforcement training, attending to special needs and medications, special feeding instructions, puppy/kitten and senior pet care, and caring for recent rescues and anxiety issues. Multiple pets welcome! My availability is very flexible to suit whatever your pet's scheduling needs may be. Your pet's sense of enrichment and happiness is so important to me. I will faithfully ensure their regular routines are kept, and that they are fully pampered to the highest standards. Your instructions and your pet's preferences are my prerogative. I'll have attentive eyes on your pet at all times, and will be happy to send photos and videos along to you as desired. I am very respectfully intuitive with pets, following their lead and yours in terms of the type of companionship and care that makes them the most comfortable. I can provide yard breaks, leash walks, games and playtime, baths, crate time, as well as administer most medications. I have experience with elderly and special needs pets as well. Please note that for boarding and doggy daycare services in my home, my apartment doesn't have a yard space. It's a very dog-friendly part of town to explore on as many walks as your pet likes, or simply for bathroom breaks outside if they're not feeling like a journey. Also, my friendly terrier named Frankie is present during doggy daycare and boarding in my home. He loves company! As a gentle soul at heart, he's great at reading whether your dog would like a playmate or prefer some space. He is neutered and current on vaccinations and flea prevention. I have a doggy gate to use as needed for separate feeding, or other needs along those lines.
“I am late on this review, but I want to make sure that I do give a shoutout to Michael. She was great with our fur babies and kept our plants alive! I recommend her for anyone look for someone who is looking for a great pet sitter!”
“Meg was great! She was very patient with Ace and handled his silly antics. It was a last minute booking and Meg was very accommodating. She took the time to get to know Ace before the booked sitting, which was greatly appreciated. She sent frequent updates and pictures. Im definitely booking Meg again!”
“Leo does such a great job with our older doggies. He gives them lots of love and attention. I don’t even think they miss us when we’re gone! We’ve booked him for overnight stays twice now and will continue to hire him when we travel!!”
“Alex was great! The dogs were certainly well taken care of and he was great at providing updates throughout. The house was clean when we came back as well and all asks completely followed. Thanks!”
“Miguel was great! My dogs got lots of love and attention, plenty of walks and were well taken care of. It’s so nice not worrying about my dogs while on vacation, knowing they are in good hands. I will definitely book with Miguel in the future!”
About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and have owned them throughout my life. As a student attending school to major in Veterinary Medicine, I want to get the best experience I can day by day. I currently own a doxie right now and she truly deserves the best. I am currently a sophomore student athlete going into my second semester. I want to be able to stay busy and get some experience with a variety of pets by understanding day by day. Also please understand that I will do my best to keep my availability updated, and as a student athlete please have patience with me. Thank you! I believe that caring for an animal is like caring for a child. The attention and care is a priority, as I do have a doxie myself. She is my whole world and she truly deserves the best along with all other pets!
“Patty is wonderful dog sitter. She takes incredible care of my 15 year old bichon that requires extra effort. He's on meds and needs a little more attention. Patty gives him that. She also is wonderful with my 3 year old mini poodle. I highly recommend Patty!”
“Zoe is an excellent house & dog sitter. She cared for our aging Belgian Sheppard’s dietary and walking needs, kept us informed with frequent pictures of his meal times & walks, and they kept each other company at night. Highly recommend (except during periods we need her again).😁”
“Eric was a great dog sitter! He was prompt with his communication… He sent pictures and updated us regularly on our dogs. We have three large breed dogs, with one of them being a puppy… And he was great with them!! we came home to an orderly home… and happy pups!”
“Ignacio did a fantastic job with our boys! We got regular photos and text updates throughout the stay with details on how each dog was doing. He was attentive and always open to any changes w asked him to make. They were both in great shape when we got back and are excited to see him again!”
“Morgan was a godsend for our last minute vacation sitting. She handled our maniacs like a true professional and we could tell immediately that she was going to be a great fit. Expect great communication and photos if she's taking care of your pups! I highly recommend Morgan and will be rebooking in the future! Thanks Morgan!”
“Vionna was amazing with my babies. Took good care of them. Kept me up-to-date with texts and photos. Highly recommended. Jimena and Lalo thank you too, Vionna!”
About: About Me 🐾 Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and responsible dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. Having experience in a 2 dog 2 cat household I know the importance of trust you have to have in your pet's caretaker. I’ve also cared for senior dogs and dogs who need medication, and I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and routines. I know that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, habits, and individual needs to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a potty break, a meal, medication, or simply some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’ll treat your dog like my own and keep you updated with photos and messages during visits. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and provide the dependable, loving care they deserve! 🐶❤️ I have a flexible schedule with work and dropping in and walking dogs helps to make my day, and make my day go by faster For drop in visits: potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles (upon pet request 😝) Dog walking: a stroll around the neighborhood for potty break, exercise, and mental stimulation with smell breaks along the way

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Olmos Park
Alba was wonderful with Atlas over the weekend! She made the whole experience easy and stress-free, and it was great knowing Atlas was in good hands. I really appreciated the updates and pictures while I was away. She was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. I’d absolutely recommend Alba and will definitely be booking her again!
Nichole watched our dog and 2 cats for 11 days, and we couldn't be happier! Our dog has epilepsy and requires meds 3x a day. She made sure our dog was safe and taken care of. She sent us daily photos, checked in, and left our house in great shape. We will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend:)
We had a great experience! Taking care of six cats is no small task, but we felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Melisa was reliable, communicative, and took great care of everyone while we were away. It was such a relief knowing our cats were being well looked after.
Caroline was incredibly warm, loving towards our pets, highly responsive, and made it so we could enjoy our vacation without worry. All the photos she sent and her attention to detail helped us see how happy and well our pets were doing while we were away. We are so grateful to her and her care for our large brood! Thank you, Caroline!!!
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.
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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Olmos Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Olmos Park is $35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,735 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 , 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.
