“I appreciate Marla staying at the house with my "kids". My dog Gracie seemed to be fond of her, judging by the picture Marla sent of the dog cuddling on her lap! Everyone was well cared for and my house was in order upon my return, and I was at peace while I was away. This was the first time I've had anyone other than family stay in my home, so I was a bit nervous, but am so happy I chose Marla to be the first, and would not hesitate to use her again if needed. - Lisa -”
“Kiah was incredible. Great communication, loving care for three aging doggies, and the house was spotless. I would book her again without hesitation. You and your pets will LOVE her warm and bubbly personality.”
About: I have grown up with and taken care animals since I can remember from dogs and cats to fish and birds to even chickens! I have watched puppies and senior dogs. I currently work from home as a secretary so I have a lot of free time in between calls and invoicing to love on and care for your pet. I also can work anywhere, not just at home. I can take care of your fur baby like you would depending on your preferences. I can crate your pet if needed and take them on the walks and exercise that they my need.
“Pauline (and Richard) were so easy to reach and while she was staying at our house we setup a WhatsApp so we could communicate and get pics from abroad! Olive (Doberman) just Loved her from the first moment they met and thru the entire stay. She had loads of exercise and walks and Pauline easily controlled her with the horses and chickens. Pauline learned how to care for a complicated property and when we returned we could not tell at all that they were staying here. We highly recommend Pauline without reservation! We have become friends and we are now going to meet up with Pauline and Richard at a dog friendly vineyard.”
About: I provide attentive, personalized care, maintain routines, give regular updates, create a calm home environment, and treat every pet with genuine patience and affection. Thanks! I work part time, usually in the mornings. I have ample time to play with pups, give plenty of potty breaks, and provide them food. I have a partially fenced yard and one very friendly pup to keep yours company. I can also provide great care at you home too.
About: I have been a dog owner since childhood and grew up in farm country Wisconsin so animals have a fond place in my heart. I've been involved in animal rescue for over 15 years as well as working as a dog trainer in the past. I believe in positive training and reward system. Your fur baby will be treated as if they are part of my own pack, spoiled with love. My work schedule is very flexible as I work from home so your pet will always be cared and looked after. I know your pets are family and should be treated as such and that's priority #1 when your pet is with me. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. Both my animals and yours will be a priority and always have companionship from myself and my puppy I have a large enclosed backyard for fresh air and sunning but always visible to watch them. I’m very alert and aware on walks and hikes at all times as well
“Ten ⭐️! Robyn came to our rescue with a last minute booking. She took extraordinary care of our senior Golden and two cats. We were sent videos of play time, brushing and belly rub time… our pets adored her. I read all her five star reviews and have to agree she is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had- and we’ve had many!”
About: From drop-ins to overnights, let me be your dog's best friend while you're away. Care includes feeding, medications, walks, cuddle time, ball throwing - whatever your dog needs and likes. Semi-retired so plenty of time to love your critters. Unless your animal prefers a short visit (sometimes shy or reclusive cats) I like to spend at least 45 minutes with your pet (s) during drop in visits. Obviously on overnights I spend a much longer time. I know the peace of mind that comes from having a trusted pet-sitter and I want to provide that peace of mind for you. You know your animals best so I will always follow your instructions to the letter. Rest assured that their welfare and comfort is ALWAYS my number one concern.
About: I’ve cared for animals for over 5 years, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other small pets. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, cleaning enclosures, and administering oral or topical medications when needed. I understand how important it is to follow routines closely and provide attentive, reliable care so pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet with patience and respect as if they were my own! I know every pet has their own routine, so I do my best to stick to what they're used to. Whether that's mealtimes, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, my goal is to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I'll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how they're doing! I focus on providing attentive, responsible care during drop-in visits and walks. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions and make sure pets are secure before leaving. Clear communication and updates are always provided for peace of mind.
“Katie is an absolute gem! Warm and communicative and clearly a dog lover. She is the kind of person you can trust right away. We are so happy to have find her and can tell the dogs adore her as well. Highly recommend!”
“Brittany was amazing!! We have never felt so comfortable leaving our babies. She sent us so many pictures, videos, and text updates. We highly recommend Brittany, and we definitely want to work with her again in the future! ?”
“Kady has watched our fur baby twice and after the first meeting he greeted her like an old friend. Yay! Kady is a good communicator and a lovely person. 100% trust her with our pup.”
“Jessica was a wonderful sitter to our dog! She communicated frequently and clearly, and we were at ease while we were away knowing that our dog was being well cared for. We highly recommend her!”
“We actually ended up taking our dogs over to Janice’s house, where they spent the night. Janice sent pictures of the dogs enjoying themselves thoroughly; sitting on laps, lounging on the couch and generally being spoiled! We could see that they were well taken care of and”
“Our boys love Genovieve! She is always reaponsive and sends us pictures of Winston and Louie in their walks. She always cleans up after herself and washes the laundry from her stay. Highly recommend!”
About: I am reliable and very responsible with all fur babies! I am confident in CPR for animals, but still working on certification. I have a deep passion for animals, and it translates through the way I interact with them! I am finishing my masters degree in clinical psychology and have lots of time on my hands as I wait for my associate number to work as a therapist! Many services I provide include walking, housesitting, potty training, bathing and other basic needs. I want to keep your fur baby busy throughout the day!!
“Carlos is a cut above the rest - he was responsive, prompt, punctual, and he really stands out with his calm energy and conscientious care. Our puppy LOVED her time with Carlos while we were at a friend's Paso Robles wedding. It was obvious from her photos that she had a blast, and she was quite a happy camper upon her return as well. We are really grateful to have found Carlos - and we really wish we lived closer so we could use his care all the time!!”
“Tori has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever hired. She took amazing care of our dogs, and went above and beyond to no only learn their routines, but to also become their friend. She made sure each of our four dogs felt comfortable with her. Taking care of four dogs (3 who are special needs) and a couple of aquariums was not an easy task, but she did a great job. Tori was on top of medications, supplements, making specific meals for each of our dogs, playtime, and walking routines. We were gone for about 2 weeks, and each day we received updates and pictures. When we came back our dogs were in great shape and the house was exactly how we left it. We are extremely happy to have found Tori and we had a wonderful experience with her. We look forward to booking her in the future, we highly recommend her! You will not be disappointed!”
“Carol was everything we were looking for, hoping for, and more. We contacted Carol on short notice for a last minute two-night get away. She was available and was open to a meet/greet with us and our pups before the scheduled sitting. We felt very comfortable with Carol; her demeanor, her abundant interest and care into our dogs daily routine. It was clear Carol was for us and our beloved pups. Once our weekend was underway, Carol not only provided us pictures of our dogs, she provided astute and caring updates about our dogs. In addition to taking interest in our dogs, she displayed interest in our home. We do our best to keep a nice home and Carol picked up on that. She provided updates on the various things she'd done around the house (sweeping, monitoring a puppy, an ant infestation (sorry Carol!)), she proactively addressed it all with aplomb. I can't say enough about Carol - and I don't even like writing this review because I want to keep her all to myself. ;) But, she's a gem and sharing the good in the world is always worth it.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Paso Robles
This was our second time using Marla and it was just as great as the first! She is a great communicator, I never have to worry about what the pups are doing because she keeps us updated at least once a day. It is clear our dogs love her and are excited when she comes to stay with them.
Kaia was wonderful! She sent pics and videos, which was much appreciated. She was very thoughtful - my Boxer Gracie Jane just had ACL surgery, thank goodness she was willing to deal with a post op dog, but I was concerned Gracie wasn't drinking enough, so Kaia later sent a video of Gracie drinking, which was so reassuring! That's where I appreciate her thoughtfulness. She took great care of my senior cat Nala, as well. When I came home from being away, Gracie kept going to the guest room bed smelling for Kaia, and a number of times got on the bed and pouted! Even this morning she went in looking for her and sniffing around! That let me know she really liked Kaia! The house was in order, meds were given, food and water bowls filled - much appreciated! - Lisa -
So grateful to have connected with Victoria. Our pup is used to us being around 24/7. Being new to the area we needed to find someone we could trust. She met us to do a meet and greet. Then we decided to have her help for a few hours before an upcoming trip. Our pup had the biggest smile on her face when we got home because of how much love and play she had while we were gone. She will be our go to from now on!
We just love Emily! This is the second time we have used her and she is such a great pet sitter! This time she actually stayed the night to watch our boy so we could do a staycaytion. Her communication with us was great, she was able to manage all of Mojo's medications with no problem and even handled a small issue at the house with no problem. So glad we finally someone we feel like we can rely on to actually do what they say they will and we will definitely use Emily again in the future!
Nicki was wonderful! Was supportive of Jack's separation anxiety and let us know how he was doing. It was wonderful for us to know that he had a person who cared about keeping him calm and feeling secure and safe. Even the cats loved her! Looking forward to having her watch Jack in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Paso Robles
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Paso Robles on Rover is $49.95 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 457 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Paso Robles. 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 Paso Robles 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 Paso Robles 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 Paso Robles 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.

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.
