About: I have many years of volunteering at an animal shelter and my main job was to train, and social many of the new dogs they would be in. As well as my entire life my family has always had pets growing up. I am currently working full time at a dental office however I have a set schedule. I am a person that likes to be extremely organized and plan my days accordingly along with my own pets needs as well as caring for the needs of other pets. I am very flexible when it comes to changing spaces. So whatever particular care your pet needs won’t be a problem. I can follow clear directions as well if there’s anything specific to your pet needs.

“Chelsea was very responsive and sent wonderful pictures and videos. Our cat, which warms up to no one. Feel completely in with Chelsea. I highly recommend her ace will be reaching out again when future needs arise”

“I was in Reno for a convention I was working. I could not have my dog with me so I asked Bailie and Kyle to watch Koda. They were not far and took great care of him. I could not recommend them enough. Thank you all. I hope when I come back next year, I can have yall again!”


“Booking Coralie to watch our cat, dog and house while away was a great decision! She stayed 4 nights in our home with our pets, we received multiple updates and pictures everyday we were gone. She even took our doodle for a nice long weekend hike with her own pup, they got along great and I know he had a blast! We never once felt concerned or worried, we knew they were in great hands. Coralie left our home tidy and clean, the dog was well exercised/loved and even the cat warmed up to her. We will definitely be booking Coralie again for our future pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a kid which included multiple dogs, a hamster and now currently a cat. Whatever task you need me to do I will be sure to complete it with precision and care. I feed my cat and clean her litter box everyday for the past two years. It is now a big part of how I get my day started and how it ends. I walk my mothers dogs, wash them and feed them on top of doing all of the same things for my cat throughout the day.
“Regina took amazing care of our pup, kept us updated and left the house and pup in excellent condition. She was super sweet with our dog, very respectful and knowledgeable. We feel so grateful for her work with our fur baby! Thanks, Regina!”

“José was absolutely amazing. We’re truly so grateful for the care he gave our dog and cat. He communicated consistently with daily updates, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. When we arrived home, both Latte and Arty were clean, happy, and clearly well cared for. We did house sitting, and the house was left spotless. José made us feel comfortable and confident the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily recommend him to anyone!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for family and friends for as long as I can remember. Looking after pets has always been something I genuinely enjoy! Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, bath time, playtime, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I work full-time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends, which allows for even more quality time, walks, play, and cuddles. I’ll do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel as relaxed as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a close eye on every pet in my care to make sure they feel safe, secure, and well loved while you’re away. I pay attention to each pet’s unique personality and body language so I can provide the care they need and avoid anything that might cause unnecessary stress. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park, giving dogs a safe place to run, play, and burn off energy during their stay. Whether we’re enjoying playtime, going for walks, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels right at home and has a fun, positive experience.
About: Since I was a little girl, I have always had a ♥ for animals. I've cared for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, ducks, chickens, rabbits, and a mini pig. A plus for me is that I have been a foster for Animal Rescue of Tracy for 10+ years now, so I have experience with all sorts of dogs and cats, from those who need special medication to rambunctious dogs to newborn kittens. There is no animal you can give me that I will not love, pet, cuddle, and care for. 🌷 I am a responsible 25 year old who has been caring for animals my whole life. This is my first Rover account, but I have been pet sitting in the Tracy community for 10 years. I live on 1.5 acres with 25 + animals, so I am very experienced and would love to help out with your furry friends! :) I'm currently working part-time with the majority of my work being remote so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! 🏡 I live on 1.5 acres of property so your dogs will have plenty of space to run around, play, and relieve themselves. Depending on your dog's friendliness, they can remain inside with my two small dogs, or I can keep them in our supervised dog run area just for them. If you have cats, they will be contained in their own area in my house so that they do not run and hide, as new environments tend to cause anxiety. 🏠 If house sitting, I make the animals feel as comfortable as possible to ease any stress of their owners being away. Pets & play are always guaranteed. I also send pictures everyday & when asked! ⭐ My routine is simple: follow your directions on feeding, walking, medication if needed, and I will handle the other most important part: giving them lots of love!
“Ashanti did an amazing job house sitting for us. She went above and beyond caring for all our babies and the house! We highly recommend her services! She really truly loves animals and made sure our doggie had lots of love and playtime!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and at this moment I have 2 friendly dogs; a 13 year old terrier mix and a 2 year old mini pitcher. I have a quiet clean (not scrubbed just cozy) home. Dogs are able to sit on couch, sleep with me in my king bed, have snack breaks and go in the backyard for potty breaks and to play fetch. My fenced backyard has a large grass area and a covered patio, we spend lots of time hanging out there on nicer days. I own my home in a nicer neighborhood since 2012. I'm super casual and easy going with a drug, smoke and alcohol free home. Your dogs will be spoiled! Dogs have lots of indoor and outdoor play time. If dogs have thier own dog food, I'll put the other dogs outside to make sure they get thier meal times otherwise I have plenty of blue buffalo dog food I mix with Purina. A morning potty out back while I prepare and separate dog bowls then they can all come in unless a dog is on a special diet then ill feed them separately. My backyard is fenced with locked gates. They get treats throughout the day and a dinner before bed. Then if they want to sleep on the bed with me they can otherwise there's thick blankets on the floor near me.
About: My family and I used to breed dogs and it grew my inspiration for becoming a vet, so being able to care and help families with their dogs means the world to me! I currently am working and in school but have many days that I dont go into work, and would love to sit down with a puppy/dog and do homework and be able to take breaks and go outside and play I am very respectful to other peoples homes, I do have a guinea pig and a cat at the moment and amd really good and cleaning up so if i need to do clean anything up after the dog I do not mind!

FAQs for House Sitting - Patterson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Patterson on Rover is $65.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 403 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Patterson. 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 Patterson 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 Patterson 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 Patterson 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Patterson. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
