“Macie is absolutely wonderful! We had Macie watch our dogs for two visits over the weekend, and both experiences were outstanding. She was punctual, communicated beautifully throughout both days, and sent thoughtful picture updates that gave us complete peace of mind while we were out. What really impressed us was how Macie went above and beyond basic pet sitting. She took the time to understand each dog's individual needs and personality, and she even worked on crate training with our puppy during her visits. By the time we got home, our puppy was already responding better to the crate command—Macie didn't just supervise, she actively helped with training! Macie was fantastic with both of our dogs and clearly has a gift for reading and responding to what each animal needs. She was incredibly respectful of our home, and when we returned, she took the time to share detailed updates about how each dog did, remembering specific details about their day that showed how attentive and caring she had been. We felt completely confident leaving our dogs in Macie's care, and we wouldn't hesitate to book her again. If you're looking for a sitter who is reliable, communicative, genuinely caring, and goes the extra mile, Macie is the one. Highly recommend! We are already planning to rebook her!”
“Samantha was amazing to help us out with a last minute request. She sent us great updates and photos throughout the day. Our German Shepherd is very wary of new people, but Sam has such a great way with animals that he warmed up to her very quickly. We will definitely trust her to care for our babies again!”
About: Hi my names Amber and I am a full time student who just moved to Temecula for my clinical rotation I am just now reactivating my rover account for some extra income. All pricing is negotiable, just trying to make some extra money as I’m currently only working twice a week and my boyfriend works from home so someone is always with the animals we care for during the week. I’ve done rover before and Love all animals and would love to care for yours like my own. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions :) and check out my reviews from the past. My dog pixie the little Chihuahua in my photos has unfortunately passed away aftee 15 years but my 7 year old corgi Roxy sure would LOVE the company. I currently work as a server and my shifts are usually only 4-5 hours long. Other than that I’m a home body who loves her shows and my boyfriend who will also be helping works from home. So someone is always with the pets. We will definitely have time for cuddles and naps or walks and playtime depending on what your dog or cat likes to do. I have no problem bathing walking playing or just hanging out. Whatever your dogs needs are.
“Kendra is amazing!! From our first meet and greet, she let my 90lb dog give her kisses all over her face and they were comfortable together right off the bat. She gave proactive updates and was great at communicating while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with Kendra again!!”

I needed a pet sitter extremely last minute and Macie was available and did so so well with my very anxious dog! She communicated well and kept me well updated and got her to relax which is hard to do with strangers. Will definitely booking with her again!
Madison did a great job looking after my cat, Harvey. Before the booking she made sure to ask informed questions about Harvey’s needs to better care for him and during the booking she kept in touch with regular pictures. Harvey seemed to really enjoy her company and I would 100% recommend Madison to anyone looking for house sitting for their pet. She was respectful of my home and most importantly treated Harvey as one of her own.
Samantha was amazing to help us out with a last minute request. She sent us great updates and photos throughout the day. Our German Shepherd is very wary of new people, but Sam has such a great way with animals that he warmed up to her very quickly. We will definitely trust her to care for our babies again!
This women right here is a 10/10 I would highly recommend her to puppy sit your fur baby ! She was on top of everything and she even is helping me train my baby !

The average cost of House Sitting in Pitco is $49 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $54 per night.

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 573 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pitco. 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 Pitco 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 Pitco 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 Pitco 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.
