“Virginia was terrific. Lucy has to warm up to people. She warmed up to Virginia quickly. I will not hesitate having Virginia stay with Lucy in the future. My home was clean and picked up beautifully and Lucy was very happy too! Great experience!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kinds ever since I was ten years old. Customers have relied on me to care for their pups; walking, feeding, cuddling, etc. etc. I'm currently a student at Diablo Valley College and play on their football team. I have free time during the day and on the weekends to care for your pets. I have a client with four small pups that I watch, feed, crate, walk. I am responsible and caring and happy to care for your pet in the way you'd prefer.
“Isaiah was amazing with our 2 huskies. My husband and I were pretty stressed this week because we had a medical procedure happening in the family and one of our huskies wearing a cone and needing some extra care due to an injured paw 🐾❤️🩹 Isaiah replied instantly, we had to change the duration of the booking last minute and he was there to help us and make things easier. Will DEFINITELY 💯 % reach out to him again. Very good impression, very professional. THANK YOU Isaiah!”
“Amanda did a great job caring for my two old ladies and taking care of my home. I felt very comfortable having her in my home. She kept in touch while I was away, kept my plants alive, left my house clean, and my girls were happy!”
“Julia did an amazing job watching my dogs!! They’re both herding breeds and kind of a handful and she did great with them, they were both very happy and tired when I got home. She was also very communicative, respectful, clean, and sent lots of updates. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Brooke was amazing! I was pretty nervous about leaving the girls for so long, but Brooke eased my mind. She stuck to the schedule we agreed on and sent me adorable pictures everyday. Brooke is very attentive and reliable. When I got home, my place was cleaner than it was when I left and most importantly, my girls looked happy and healthy. I will definitely be booking her again.”
“Jimena did a great job with my sweet but neurotic cats (and their neurotic owner)! I was nervous about going out of town because the cats had recently been demonstrating some changes in appetite. Jimena sent lots of pictures, which helped ease my mind, and she was vigilant in reporting back to me about the cats’ meals and bathroom habits. My shy kitty also seemed to warm up to Jimena quicker than she usually does with new people!”
“Ef was terrific - personable, responsible, caring, communicative, and dog-smart - from booking, to stopping by a second time on the day before we left so he could connect with Polly and double check arrangements, to reporting while we were gone, to debriefing on our return.”
“Danielle is the best!! She stayed over a weekend to watch our new pup Bella. Her communication is great- she went above and beyond to keep us updated on Bella’s care. We were so comfortable knowing Bella was safe at home with her while we were both away. We will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”
“Maire is a wonderful person. She did an amazing job. My dog is a rescue, somewhat quiet and reserved yet Maire was able to make her feel safe, secure and happy to the point were they hung out together. Maire took her for walks and my dog obviously loves her. I will definitely use her again.”
“Alexa is AMAZING! She recently watched our two dogs while we were away. Our senior dog, Scout, has several medical conditions and Alexa had the knowledge and background to handle all of his needs. She provided excellent loving care and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. It is clear that Alexa has a gift with animals. Our normally shy rescue puppy, Olive, gravitated to her immediately. Alexa made sure she got plenty of exercise and they became fast friends! We were able enjoy our time away knowing they were both in the best of hands. I highly recommend Alexa for anyone needing pet care. You won’t find a more compassionate and knowledgeable caregiver. We will definitely use Alexa again!”
“Opus got all the love he could possibly want and it's that what's most important? He must've enjoyed his visit because he forgave us for leaving him. My furry son tried to pull a fast one (you know how kids are) but Karma & Sierra's well-timed pictures tipped me off. My fault I failed to mention he's not allowed on the couch. They handled it great! We're very thankful we found them despite it being last minute.”
“Alexa was amazing with our dog! She came over right on time, was super communicative and took great care of him with walks and playtime. So glad she was able to help us last minute! We will be reaching out to her again!”
“Ashley was totally amazing with Manchitas, we left for 3 days and she took care of her very well. She played with her, she walked with her making sure the temperature was not too hot, she gave her all food and medien she needed during the day. And the best part she was most of the time with her in the house. Thanks to her I had an amazing short vacation with my family♥️ thank you so much Ashley , I will totally hire you again. You are amazing 🤩”
“Colleen was amazing and I will definitely be booking with her again! Colleen came to our home for a full week and took wonderful care of our two dogs and our home. Our dogs each had two walks a day and were fed and given their supplements twice per day as well. Colleen sent updates and photos each day, which was so appreciated! She also did things like water plants, take in the mail, etc.”
“Jordyn was thoughtful and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were on vacation, which we appreciated. She took very good care of our sweet girl and our home while we were away! Highly recommend her for dog/ house sitting.”

Teagan is an awesome sitter. I’m out of the country and she took care of my challenging but sweet pittie with grace and made me feel so comfortable with leaving her. She also dropped her off to her other sitter with no problems. Highly recommend and will be using her again.
Hosana took excellent care of my two high-energy dogs (one of which is extra, extra high-energy). Really appreciated her updates and excellent, proactive communication. She stayed at our house and took great care. We very much appreciate her and look forward to using her services again!
Brenna was great! The pups seemed right at home with her. She was very responsive and sent pictures every day along with updates on how their day went. I felt very comfortable having her caring for the them and will definitely contact her for future petsitting needs.
Gheeta was very thoughtful throughout this experience by keeping me up to date sending photos and asking questions appropriately when needed. She really dotted over my cat and showed lots of concern for his wellbeing . She also took really good care of the plants and cleaned up nicely so everything was on its place when I came home. Thanks Gheeta !!! I will ask you back soon
Monica was the perfect person to look after our fur children. She sent tons of pictures, asked for and followed all of our normal routines to keep the girls on the same schedule, and left the house exactly as she found it. We came home to extremely happy pups. Thank you, Monica!!
Mia watched our pup for 2.5 weeks. Our pup has a back condition so I was nervous to leave him, but she was great with him and following our instructions. I also got to meet her boyfriend and sister before we went on our trip and felt very comfortable with everyone. It was nice that she got to come a few days before we left so we could go over all the instructions. She was also flexible on her departure time when we thought we were going to miss our flight and come home late. Our house was clean and in great condition when we got home. Thanks Mia! We'd definitely recommend.

The average cost of House Sitting in Pacheco is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $95 per night.

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 Pacheco 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 Pacheco 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 Pacheco 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.
