“Tony was excellent. We were out of town for 11 days, he sent us updates and photos. He is an amazing communicator. Our flight canceled coming home and I had my sister go pick up the dogs, she said that the dogs were so calm and happy. He also left my house spotless. I couldn't be more happy with Tony's services. We will be going out of town a few more times this year, Tony will be our FIRST choice, nd hopefully only choice. We couldn't be more happy with the respect and love he gave to our home and our dogs. Thanks Again Tony.”
“Marilyn was wonderful and I look forward to having her sit for me again in the future. She provided daily updates in the form of text and photos through the Rover app. Both of my dogs were well cared for and she left my home in the same sparkling condition she found it in.”
“Aileen was so good with my dogs. She sent lots of update photos and kept in touch. My dogs are on the shy side but they warmed up to her very fast. She is so sweet and my dogs loved her will definitely be booking whenever they need a sitter!”
“Celeste was amazing! From first interaction, she was professional, friendly, and communicative. I immediately felt she was a perfect fit to house sit and care for my sweet fur babies. She sent me appropriate updates, pictures, and left my house in better condition than I left it. I’m already planning to hire her again.”
“Todd was an exceptional dog sitter this was my first time to use Todd but I would definitely use him for future dog sitting. He was very attentive in regards to what my pets needs were and met those 100% he sent pictures and was in constant contact with me if questions arise. Todd is a five star dog sitter and I would highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs. We are ready have a trip planned and the following weeks and he is the only person that I would trust to stay with my babies. He is awesome!!!!!!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Emily. From her communication to the way she cared about my dogs, she is just great. Definitely booking again if she is available. Thank you so much for your help Emily”
“We were so grateful to have Cambria house sit for us and watch our two dogs while we were on vacation. She was communicative throughout our trip, sending daily updates and photos of the dogs. We were able to fully enjoy our trip, knowing that our dogs were happy and well-cared for by Cambria. She took care of everything we needed while we were gone, watered our plants and went above and beyond, cleaning the floors before we arrived back home! We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Eliana took great care of our babies and our home! We felt confident leaving them in her care based on her calm, kind demeanor and the insightful questions she asked during the meet and greet, which showed her knowledge and intuition for animal behavior. She kept in great contact and was even a great sport about some circuit breaker issues that popped up while we were away. Reliable, responsive, and very sweet with our precious pets!”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley, where I supported animals through post-surgical recovery, monitored their health, and assisted with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment activities. I’ve worked closely with veterinary staff and have been trained to recognize signs of distress, provide comfort, and ensure a safe environment for pets of all ages. I’m also fluent in ASL (American Sign Language), which allows me to communicate effectively with pet owners who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for-whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay. Availability: I am available Monday to Friday: Flexible hours (varied schedule) Weekends: Available upon request I am able to accommodate appointments and special requests based on client needs. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I follow your routines closely to ensure consistency and minimize stress for your pet. I maintain a clean and secure environment, provide fresh water and food, and make sure your pet has a cozy space to rest and play. My experience at the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley taught me how to monitor animals during post-surgical recovery, recognize signs of distress, and respond calmly and effectively. I’m especially skilled in caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering basic medications and offering gentle support. You can trust that your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and professionalism every step of the way.
“Nick did a great job taking care of my dog and cats. He provided great communication and was reliable. I will be booking him again in the future. I would definitely recommend him to friends.”
“THE BEST, book her! My boy is a little monster (standard poodle) and she had so much love and care for him and his brother. And she left my home in pristine condition. Thanks Maiya!”
“Harrison stayed with our cat Bongo for three weeks and he was amazing. He had fast responses via text, sent photos, and checked in regularly. We came back after three weeks and everything in the house was perfect: food bowls full, water clean, litter boxes clean, plants alive… Best of all Bongo was so completely relaxed and happy it was as if we had only been gone to the store. We would 100% hire Harrison again!”
“I don't want to tell you how wonderful Melissa is because we don't want to share her! She is such a sweet and gentle person and had just the right touch with our slightly over-protective boxer/pitbull. But he fell instantly in love with her. Don't use her unless you want your dog to fall in love with her too!”
“We had an unfortunate last minute cancellation with our last sitter and had to find someone less than a week before our 2 week trip abroad and makes a Responded quickly and was able to house sit for the two weeks and take care of our 3 cats. She did an amazing job updating us and kept our place nice and clean!! Book with her as she’s very reliable!!”
“She took lots of pictures. Helped as much as possible. He wasn't feeling well and she took him out numerous times to ease his worries. She kept me updated on everything. Very polite and nice to have had her help.”
About: I’ve had dogs growing up big and small. I currently have 3 cats named Mylo, Mateo, and Madonna . I keep everything tidy and love to play with animals :) Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and can dedicate my schedule to providing attention, exercise, and companionship. I am able to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and cared for. Cats always hide in weird places so when I take note on their favorite spots and always have an eye on them. I’ll always have your pet by my side! I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide patience, supervision, and lots of affection.
About: I'm an Animal science major on the pre veterinary track at UC Davis which gives be background to provide the best care for our animals! I am a current college student on summer break! I have three household pets with one being my cat. I fit my schedule around theirs as I know routine builds a great foundation! I follow any regulations or information provided for the pet specifically to ensure safety such as medications . I make sure to learn the animals behaviors as well as take things at the animals pace to ensure safety on both ends. I also use my animal science knowledge from college as I am an animal science student.
About: I’m back to this app because I miss taking care of animals! I love all pets and will care for yours like they’re part of my own family. I’m reliable, patient, and will follow your pet’s routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. I’ll send you regular updates with photos about every couple of hours, so you can always see how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your furry friend has a fun, loving experience! 🐾 I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute bookings. This is something that we can work out to accommodate you and both of our schedules. We will make sure to communicate through text or call. I have a nice dog park at my apartment complex that I can take your pet to (if you’d like)! I always offer a bath (free of charge) to my customers!

Jennifer was very responsive and attentive to detail. She was able to provide all the necessary compassion and needs for my 4 legged family members to feel comfortable for an at home overnight stay. I would both recocomend her to new clients and look forward to having her back. Thanks! 🙂

FAQs for House Sitting - Patton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Patton on Rover is $32.1 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 2,209 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Patton. 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 Patton 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 Patton 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 Patton 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.
