“Wendy took such good care of my cats. I have a new kitten in addition to my two adult cats and she had to maneuver feeding them in 3 areas and spending time with each cat. They were happy and well cared for when I got home.”
“Shanise is going to be the best sitter you’ll ever have. She followed every instruction, sent us photos on every feeding/walking/potty time and updated us on how my dog is doing. She really helped relax our nerves while we were away from my baby boy. As long as she’s available, I would hire her to take care of my dog for the foreseeable future.”
“Kellar took great care of our pups (and house) while we were out of town! Kellar was great with updates and pictures, and was quick to check in when our old lady, Maggi, wasn’t eating (don’t worry, she was just holding out for the good stuff). Both pups were relaxed and happy when we got home - we would definitely ask Kellar to stay with Raffles and Maggi again!”
“Isabella was beyond incredible with my four-year-old husky. She took the time and effort to make sure my husky was well stimulated and exercised. Isabella is great at communication, sending photos and updates throughout the day. She also took care of my house and followed the rules. Isabella also went above and beyond and helped Nyra get more comfortable being in a crate. I highly recommend her services!!”
About: I've raised my current dog from puppy... house training, obedience, manners etc. I understand dog psychology and love spending time with them. I also was sitting all my neighbor and family dogs over the years. I'm currently not working, so I'm home most days available to walk your fur baby anytime. I'm walking my dog twice a day currently, can add more walks if needed. I live in an unfenced community with plenty of grass all around us. I walk my puppy on a leash always. I have an adorable Shih Tzu who can keep your fur baby company and playmate. Dogs in this house are part of a family, they can go anywhere couches etc.
About: Hello! My name is Sheng Yao Chao. You can always call me John or Chao. I had two dogs in the past, Akita and Shetland sheepdog. I love them so much. I treat every pets as my own family. What sets me apart is my reliability and attention to detail. I follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety on every walk or visit, and make sure pets stay comfortable and stress-free. I also provide consistent communication and updates. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine by allowing me to plan flexible time around walks, visits, and check-ins. I prioritize consistency, reliability, and clear communication with pet owners. I make sure to schedule enough time for each pet so they receive proper attention, exercise, and care without feeling rushed. In my client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain the pet’s normal routine, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins. I keep the environment clean, respect the home, and give updates with photos so owners know their pet is well cared for.
“She was great! Stayed close to the schedule we requested at all times our pups seemed to do great with her! She even went out of her way and took our dog to get a pup cup which was very sweet. And one of our dogs is very senior and fragile and she seemed to do great with him. Would absolutely book again!”
“Anthony was so patient with our boy. He tried everything to get him to take his meds, walked him and hung out with him, establishing trust. We were very nervous about having a new sitter. And 13 dog doesn’t adapt well. But Tony did a great job.”
About: I've cared for dogs and cats for many years and understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after them. I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication, senior pets and pets with special needs. I have experience caring for a blind and hard-of-hearing dog, and I recently completed a weeklong cat and house-sitting stay. I'm attentive to routines and instructions and want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I'm retired, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with your pets and keep their routine consistent while you're away. I follow feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter or potty routine, and any special instructions carefully. I'm dependable, respectful of your home, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are comfortable and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are my priority. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding, medications, walks, doors and gates, and any special routines or restrictions. I'm careful when entering and leaving the home and will never let a pet outside unsecured. I also respect your home and keep things clean and secure while you're away. Because I'm retired, I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of attention and not rush their care.
“Rachel did such a fantastic job taking care of my pup! I felt at ease the entire time. She sent lots of updates and pictures/videos of my Ellie, she even brought her some treats and a toy!”
About: I've cared for doggies of all ages all my life, both my own and for clients. I am comfortable with pups that require a bit more attention & have experience with administering meds, keeping food and water dishes clean & fresh, preparing specialty food and cleaning up any accidents. I am comfortable with giving baths, going for walks & frequent potty breaks. Getting to play and cuddle is always a plus! As I am looking for part-time work I currently have plenty of time for specialty pet care including play time, feeding, potty breaks, walks, or even baths. I have more experience with pets that are allowed free range of the house, but if needed I can safely crate the fur baby comfortably.
“Being the first time away from our shelter pup,we were very nervous about him - if he would be well taken care of, if he would have a good rapport with his sitter, and if our sitter would even work out. Steven was amazing and allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Ozzy was well taken care of. He established a good relationship with him before our vacation (it helped that we had several drop ins before so Ozzy would be familiar and comfortable with him - I highly recommend doing this for any new sitter) and was respectful of our home while we were away. Thank you Steven for taking such great care of Ozzy!”
About: My experience with caring for pets is mainly with friends and family. But it makes me feel very honored to care for someone’s animal pal. I have worked with pregnant dogs, puppies, giving medications, over night stays, walking and transportation as well as some reptiles and birds. Oh also enjoy the training aspect of pet care and if that is your intention with your pet, I would love to help! I am currently taking a 2 month break from work and would like to make some income during that time. My schedule is very flexible and negotiable. I take any instructions given very seriously and hope to create a trusting and safe relationship with your pet as well kindness and respect for you.

“Marx took great care of my senior citizen pup while I was away and communicated effectively when he had questions, or needing clarification. I also got sick while on my travels and Marx so graciously was able to stay another day so I could recover and enjoy the remainder of my trip. My dog seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned home. I would definitely use and recommend Marx again to others.”
“Amy was very punctual and reliable. She did such an amazing job looking after our cat, Kitten; he was so well cared for and happy when we got home. The house was clean and in perfect order. We will definitely use Amy again!”

Zoe was an amazing house sitter for our two boys. We have one elderly dog that is very specific about how he likes his day run and a middle aged dog with separation anxiety; both require medication. Zoe was in communication sharing update and photos and I felt at ease that they were in good hands. She was able to keep them on their routines and the boys looked so happy in the photos she shared with me. When I got home the boys were calm and clearly had good time with Zoe. I would absolutely work with Zoe again. She very responsive, reliable, and asked questions to clarify as needed. Zoe took such great care of my boys!
Charlotte was a wonderful dog sitter! She took such excellent care of my two dogs while I was away. She sent photos and updates every day. My home was also well cared for— clean and tidy on my arrival back home. I would definitely ask Charlotte to watch my dogs again in the future.
We were gone for 12 days while Rachel took great care of our 2 Golden Retrievers. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs. She’s mature, professional and an excellent communicator. She messaged us daily with updates and lots of pictures. We very much appreciated that she walked and brushed the dogs daily and kept them safe. Rachel took the time to try to understand any concerns we had and she asked lots of questions and we explained they were each on a different food as one is on a prescription diet. She also brought them a ball which was very thoughtful and sweet. We can highly recommend Rachel, we would hire her again.
Melanie was wonderful with our dogs! She made sure they were well cared for and got plenty of playtime, and we loved getting photos and videos multiple times a day — it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. She's warm, caring, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for dogsitting!
Lily is wonderful as always! She is the only one that my kitties always feel comfortable around, they really love her. I can always relax on vacation knowing that she is taking care of my kitties. She sends the best pictures and updates as well. Always highly recommend her!
Thank you Kellar for taking such good care of our senior pup! We were nervous about going away for the weekend and leaving our dog at home since he is starting to show his age. Kellar was great about sending us updates and taking extra special care of our dog when he had some anxious nights while we were gone.
Marx took great care of my senior citizen pup while I was away and communicated effectively when he had questions, or needing clarification. I also got sick while on my travels and Marx so graciously was able to stay another day so I could recover and enjoy the remainder of my trip. My dog seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned home. I would definitely use and recommend Marx again to others.
Caleb was absolutely amazing taking care of our dogs. He was punctual, reliable, and kept us consistently updated, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and comfortable the entire time. Funny enough, our neighbor even thought we had taken the dogs with us because they never heard a single bark 😂, that’s how calm and well handled everything was. I highly recommend Caleb to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely great pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking him again!
Great job taking care of my babies 💗 - I booked Richard for a week and he followed all of my instructions for my new puppy and took really good care of my cats. I appreciate how intentional he was about bonding with all three of them and going the extra mile to do some training with my puppy. He was extremely communicative and left my home clean!!!

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 Pomona 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 Pomona 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pomona 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
