About: I’ve had pets since childhood. I currently have a senior dog and my hands-on experience caring for adult dogs with specific emotional needs. Because I live with a senior, I am naturally patient, highly observant, and deeply respect a dog’s established routine. I am fully comfortable administering oral medications, including anxiety medication, and I know how to keep a calm, low-stress environment for pets who get nervous when their owners are away. Whether I am arriving for a high-energy neighborhood walk or providing cozy, in-home sitting, I focus on building trust with your dog at their own pace so they feel completely safe and secure. I’m a part time nanny and because my job doesnt start until 3:45pm my mornings and early afternoons are completely open for adventures! I’m here for bright and early mornings, or lunch drop-ins and daytime playdates. A quick note for house sitting friends: I do head out to my nanny job from about 3:15pm to 10pm on weekdays. I will always make sure your pup gets a long walk, and a full belly right before I leave, and I return immediately afterwards for overnight cuddles. If your sweet fur baby is happy to snooze and do their own thing for a few hours in the evening, we will be an excellent match. I look forward to meeting you and discussing how I can best support your pets daily routine. I already pet sit and house sit for several families in the area, and I make sure to treat every home and pet I visit exactly like my own-with total respect, love, and tons of belly rubs!
“We have NEVER felt so safe and comfortable leaving our boys with anyone. Veronica is a Godsend. She sent us pics every day. When our six year old asked whether the dogs missed us, she sent us an “e-card” from “them” to us. Our younger dog is very wary of new people, but warmed up to Veronica faster than he ever has to anyone. Our house was in perfect order when we got back. We love her!”
“Sarah did a great job with our Sadie and we will definitely use her again in the future! Sarah gave multiple updates a day and always responded timely to any messages I sent her. Our house was just as we left it and you could tell Sadie was comfortable and happy while we were gone. Thanks Sarah!”
“Audrey was a fantastic house sitter. She sent us so many pictures of Cho when we were on our trip and took care of our place. Would be happy to book her in the future!”
“William was wonderful with our boy Beaux while we were out. He was very respectful of our home and Beaux was happy to see him after we had an initial meeting. I highly recommend booking with William.”
“Farrah was really great! She stayed at our house for a week with our dog and did an amazing job. She sent lots of updates and was always very reachable whenever we checked in, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also kind enough to come by a few days before we left to do a walk-through of the house and meet our dog, which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy dog and a house left in great condition. We truly appreciated having someone so trustworthy and reliable caring for both our home and our dog. We would absolutely recommend Farrah and would love to work with her again.”
“IULIIA was wonderful with our puppy, Bob. He had no accidents in the house, as he is in potty training. She played with him a lot, and he was a very happy puppy when we came home. She followed instructions and she was on time, and very nice. We will use her again! Thank you!”
About: I say what sets me apart from other sitters is the love and care I offer. I treat them as if they were my own pet. I’m currently a full-time student from 8 AM to 1 PM Monday through Friday so I’m available anytime after 1 and available anytime on the weekends so I have enough time to come play with your babies and make sure that they are well taken cared of. I have a fenced yard and a loving golden retriever who will keep your pet company 🥰 I have a safe neighborhood and love to take my dog and dogs I’m sitting for a walk as well.
“She is very nice and took good care of our dogs while we were away. Everything was clean when we returned, and most importantly, the dogs were happy and well cared for”
“Cordelia was great with Rocky! She took the time for a meet and greet, communicated really well and seemed to really enjoy caring for a dog. We would recommend her and hope to use her again!”
“Nicola stayed at our house and watched our dogs for a week while we were on vacation. Nicola was fantastic with our dogs and took very good care of our home. Nicola was very communicative all week, sending great pictures of the dogs and the house. Nicola was a pleasure to work with, and we would definitely hire Nicola to help with our dogs in the future. We would highly recommend hiring Nicola for any dog/house sitting or dog walking jobs.”
About: I am an owner of 2 energetic dogs - both huskies! I have always been a huge animal lover since I was a kid growing up in an household full of fur babies and aquatic creatures. I understand the importance of wanting your babies to be safe and well taken care of while you are away. I heard about Rover through a friend who has been an active caretaker since 2019 and she suggested I begin my journey in building great relationships with owners and gain their pets trust and love! I have experience in providing care to dogs of all sizes, cats, Guinea pigs and aquatic babies (fun fact, I’m also a PADI diver!). I am super excited to begin my services and give you and your animals a positive and comfortable experience 💕 I am a full time songwriter with lots of flexibility to watch your fur babies! I will be available to walk your pups, house sit, and or provide drop in visits :) My home is also equipped with a doggy door so access to the backyard is super convenient! I am accustomed to keeping a good eye on my pups and now that they live with their grandparents, I have all the amenities your babies will need for a clean and safe environment. My home is also located in a gated community so taking them out for walks is safe (very little vehicle access!). There is also an off-leash dog park 8 minutes away if ever needed :)
About: I’m a compassionate, dependable animal lover who understands how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping each pet comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll follow their normal routine and give them personalized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel completely at ease. Being a full-time student taking care of fury-children compliments my lifestyle. I’m a spiritualist at heart. I love a nice meditation, yoga, & nature walk to center myself in my day. I care for each pet according to their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, medication, playtime, walking, and litter-box instructions carefully while keeping the space clean, calm, and secure. I give cats time to approach me at their own pace and provide affection, play, or quiet companionship based on what makes them feel safest. I also send regular photo and message updates so pet parents can feel reassured while they are away.
“Madelyn did such a wonderful job cat sitting while we were on vacation. Our cats were happy and calm when we got home. She sent me detailed updates everyday and lots of pictures of the cats playing and eating. I hope I can book her again in the future.”
About: I grew up having large dogs and am currently an aunt to a grey cat who is named Booboo. I allow pets to show their personality in order to give them the best care and keep them happy. I’m available Friday afternoons, Saturdays and Sundays. Just message me :) I’m flexible as long as I have a few hours notice. I can do mornings, afternoons or nights as needed I follow all care directions given by owners. I currently feed and play with my cat and give her lots of love. I will make sure all pets are taken care of and are kept safe
“We were so grateful to Emily for being available on short notice and on Christmas night, no less! While we were staying with family over the holidays, Dudley was less than happy to be left with a dog sitter in a home he was unfamiliar with. Emily was great in understanding his behavior and gave him time and space to adjust to our being gone. She sent us pictures and let us know that while not happy, he was doing fine. We so appreciated Emily's sweet nature in dealing with our sulky boy. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter and would use her again next time we're in town!”
“Alexis is a phenomenal and reliable dog sitting partner. Benny and I are so grateful for her help! She dog sat for us for a week while I was away at a work conference and she kept me posted with daily updates pictures and commentary on the pup. Thanks again, Alexis!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Panorama City is $65

I’m a *psycho* about who watches my dog, after she escaped a few years ago. And Jackie was PERFECT for Golda. My trip kept getting changed due to personal and work emergencies and Jackie was super communicative and really good at balancing my anxious self. My dog was so happy with her, she left my place spotless, and her communication was top notch. I’m so thrilled to have found Jackie on here, Golda loved her!
Suz helped me out when I was in a panic to find someone at the very last second after another sitter had to leave during their stay with my dogs. I have 5 dogs and I know they can be overwhelming for most people but she was so great with them! She was always there to chat when I needed and she kept up my home nice while I was gone as well. My dogs were super happy and well taken care of and I’m so grateful that she was there when I needed her. She never made me doubt that my pets were safe in her care and that is the most important thing, I never had to worry! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
We were gone for 6 days & Wynn has never been away from us that long. After meeting Taylor you could tell that this wasn't just a job, but a passion. We received "Taylor" made text messages, pictures, & videos from her EVERY day. We even had a special video of Wynn dancing for his sister's, our daughter, wedding. In addition to providing for Wynn, Taylor watered my plants, & we walked into a house that was cleaner than when we left. Taylor is the BEST!
Kim was amazing! She went above and beyond watching my 9-week-old puppy for the day. I knew Junie was safe, loved, and having fun because of the frequent photo updates, and I was so amazed how Kim saw that I needed some help around the house being a new puppy mom, too. I highly recommend her to everyone.
Andres knows exactly how to treat my silly, aloof dog who wants nothing to do with anyone when I'm not there. He kept trying to win her over, but was not bothered that she wanted to stay hidden and cautious. She ate and did all she needed to do and Andres kept me informed with checkins each day of 4. I trust him to watch my dog and not force or expect more than she can give. Would definitely use Andres any time I go away.
Jade was so lovely and communicative with me while staying with my girls! She was persistent and patient with my kitty who has to take a medicine that she hates and I was so appreciative. She left my space clean and tidy! Overall, it was so lovely being able to travel and trust that Jade was taking fantastic care of my babies!
At the meet and greet Hector took time to ask thoughtful questions about Rhea, her routine, special needs. He made sure we left him contact info in case of an emergency. He was attentive, responsible and easy to communicate with. We felt very comfortable leaving Rhea with Hector. He kept us updated throughout the evening with texts, pictures and videos. We would definitely recommend Hector and will happily book with him again.
We have NEVER felt so safe and comfortable leaving our boys with anyone. Veronica is a Godsend. She sent us pics every day. When our six year old asked whether the dogs missed us, she sent us an “e-card” from “them” to us. Our younger dog is very wary of new people, but warmed up to Veronica faster than he ever has to anyone. Our house was in perfect order when we got back. We love her!
Yeilin was outstanding and followed all of our instructions carefully while caring for our pets. Although we didn’t have the chance to meet in person before I had to leave, she took wonderful care of my dogs and treated them with kindness and attention. She was always on time for meals and potty breaks, respected our home, and communicated well throughout the stay. I would highly recommend Yeilin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Wow! Carlos was just the best! A total pro who handled my snippy Min-Pin with so much ease and care! Carlos stayed at our house while we were away on a trip and made sure everything was taken care of as if it was his own home. He even watered my plants and an outdoor garden for me AND searched through some papers to help find one I'd accidentally left behind on my desk! A lifesaver for sure and I'm so grateful for the Rover connection to Carlos!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Panorama City is $75 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $139 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 12,242 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Panorama City. 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 Panorama City 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 Panorama City 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 Panorama City 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.
