“It was our first time leaving Luna (our rescue who we believe was previously traumatized) so we were a little anxious. We couldn't have asked for better. Norma was amazing. She stayed in our home to look after Luna and looked after both as if they were her own. The house looked amazing and Luna was calm and relaxed, clearly well looked after. Norma sent us regular updates and pictures which were much appreciated. We would highly recommend Norma if you are looking for someone who is conscientious with a genuine love of animals. Thanks Norma x”

“Another fantastic job! Thank you Angelica! Our 3rd time using her this year and she did not disappoint. Came home to two happy dogs. Angelica stays at our house and always goes the extra mile… not only walks and feeds the dogs but she also brings in the mail, takes out the trash cans on trash day and sends the best pics/videos of the dogs playing, walking and snuggling throughout each day :) ❤️ TY!!”

“Laurie Beth is simply amazing! I have two vocal beagles, one of which has severe anxiety and is epileptic. This dog is very slow to warm up to people. It took a bit but Laurie Beth got her to come around and even got kisses! I was stunned. Laurie was very punctual and sent videos and pictures. She treated my babies and our home like they were her own. Going out of town is now much easier. She will be sitting for us in the future”

“We had a great first experience using Rover! Taryn was truly the perfect choice for our pup sitter! I was pretty nervous having to leave my puppy for the whole day but Taryn really took the best care of her. Communication was great and everything ended up going very smoothly! They played together throughout the day and Taryn even managed to give Leia some basic training lessons, which was super awesome!! We would absolutely recommend Taryn and will definitely book her again because we know our Leia will be safe and having fun!! 🐾✨♥️”

“My wife and I wanted to get away at the last minute, but our normal dog/house sitter was unavailable. In looking for someone to babysit our little dog and house sit, we chanced upon Rover. It’s always a scary prospect to allow a stranger not only watch your precious animals, but have them stay at your home. After checking out a number of prospects on Rover we decided to call Krista. What a wonderful decision we made. Krista came over to our house to meet our dog Chewy and give us a chance to “qualify” her. We’ll just say she was beyond qualified. Responsible, Joyful and Professional and Communicative during our trip. All that to say Krista is our new “Best Friend” house/dog sitter. Thank you, Krista!”

About: Consider me a house sitter as well!! I have taken on additional responsibilities such as collecting mail, dusting, sweeping,watering plants, yard, moving vehicles. Your wish is my command. I currently work from home. I work for the County of San Bernardino so I went thru background and fingerprint for my current role. That also helps you feel comfortable watching your pet. I also know how stressful it can be to leave your pup while on vacation. I will send photos throughout your vacation. I’m comfortable administering medication and caring for animals with special needs.

“We had a last minute event and she came through! We highly recommend. Great communication quick response, and punctual. We have a Great Dane Mastiff and an 14yo boxer who can be very needy in their own ways. She sent updates of potty breaks, meals and asked all the important questions. We will definitely request her again. Thank you for taking care of our babies!”

About: Hi, I'm Chelsea! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first with me. ❤️ I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your pets, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re with someone who will genuinely care for them like they’re my own. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and currently have animals of my own, including dogs, cats, rats, and reptiles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do for work, it’s something I truly love. I understand that no two pets are the same. Some want all the cuddles and attention, while others need patience and time to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, respect their boundaries, and take the time to learn their personality and what makes them feel safe. I’m comfortable with dogs of all different sizes, including large and strong breeds, and I understand how important it is to stay attentive and responsible on walks. Trust is also very important to me. I’ve worked with the same professional cleaning company for about 10 years, so I’m regularly trusted inside clients’ homes and understand the responsibility that comes with that. You can expect plenty of communication, photos, and updates while your pet is with me. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without constantly wondering if your pet is okay. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or caring for your pets while you’re away, they’ll receive the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want someone to give my own. Because to me, they’re never “just a pet.” They’re family. 🐾 I work part time and have a very flexible schedule to help with yours and your pets needs,most of the weekends im available as well! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow your care instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, keep a clean and secure environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send regular photo updates for peace of mind.

“Gabby did an excellent job house sitting for our two large dogs while we were away on vacation. She kept us updated every day with photos and videos playing with our dogs and taking them on walks. Our dogs took to her immediately and we came home to happy, well cared for fur babies. Knowing our pups were so well taken care of allowed us to relax and truly enjoy our vacation. We would rebook with Gabby in a heartbeat for our next time out of town!”

About: Since I was younger, I have cared for all kinds of dogs. Friends and family relied on me often and even entrusted me with pets of extra care. I love taking care of animals. I always look after an animal. Even if they are anxious or very energetic. I learned how to maintain patience despite any challenge. When I interact with pets I make sure to give them lots of space so I don't disturb them in any way. I also don't mind caring for them 24/7. I understand some pets need extra comfort. When a pet is in my care I go at their own pace, respect their boundaries, and always aware of any potential dangers. I truly appreciate what pets bring to this world. They deserve the best care and attention. As of right now I don’t have a job and have a free schedule to focus on you and your pet’s needs or anything you ask for. At my house there’s a fenced yard with walls and a dog and cat who can interact with your pet if needed. If your dog is crate trained I also have that available.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish. Whatever you need, I got you, worry free. Pet can be of any age. I am currently only working 4 hours a day, 4 days a week. My weekends are completely open as well. I can usually be available on short notice as well, just message me. I will read over the directions left by the pet parents carefully and thoroughly and ask questions if I have any concerns or questions. I want your fur babies to be loved me just as much as they are by you.

About: I have volunteered at shelters all my life where I would play and walk the shelter dogs. I would also food prep and make toys I’m a full time college student and working part time as an animal care staff in a lab, so I am usually busy in the mornings. But my job allows me to be very flexible with scheduling which means more time to play and care for animals on the side! The biggest thing for me when caring for a pet is making sure they feel confident and comfortable with me. Less stress meanings happier dog.

About: I was raised with cats and dogs and have always loved animals. I have large and small dogs and cats and one horse. I even take care of butterflies! I can feed, medicate, train and love house pets and livestock. I worked for over thirty years as a psychiatric technician, so I can give injections to people and animals. I am patient, reliable and kind, and am a karate instructor in my spare time, so I can keep up with large and active animals. I groom my own large dogs and give them vaccinations, as well as my horse. I have handled a variety of animal-related emergencies, including snake bites, birth, evacuations from fires, and end-of-life care. I treat my animals like they are family.

About: I've taken care of my neighbors pets off and on since 2018. Along with that I have taken care of my own dog since 2019. I don't mind picking up after a dog or if necessary cleaning up a dog in case something goes wrong I'm currently between jobs but I make it a priority to walk my dog every morning around my neighborhood 2-3 times a day 7 days a week. I make sure my dog is fed every morning and night, we play whenever she has too much energy or gets zoomies. Checking in on my neighbors or technically clients animals was always a top priority every morning or every other morning depending on instructions. I have no issues house sitting if it is needed

About: (Experience & Background) I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and a wide range of breeds, from high-energy working dogs like Malinois to smaller companions like Chihuahuas. I have also experience with cats as I grew up with them. Grew up with a parent involved in specialised training (narcotics, ammo, obedience, etc) and search and rescue, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, structure, and safety. This background allows me to confidently handle different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I approach every pet with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care, treating them as if they were my own. I also live in a community with access to a dog park and walking areas, allowing for safe, structured exercise when appropriate. (Availability) My schedule can be flexible and designed to accommodate your pet’s needs! Weekdays: Available starting at 5:30 PM Saturdays: Full availability for walks, drop-ins, etc Sundays: Available after 1:30 PM I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your routine, just send me a message!

Light care such as water refills or quick feeding can be included if time allows. -For more involved care routines, I recommend booking a drop-in visit to ensure your pet receives my full attention.

My first time using this app and I was very anxious to do so but after meeting Nicole, I felt at ease. I expressed to her how I felt my two dobermans were a lot for some people and I felt hesitant to book on this app. She went out of her way to come meet them and conversate with me while we waited for the dogs to become acquainted with her BEFORE we even decided to move forward with working together. Fast forward to the next day, I was getting married, while I was pretty busy, she made sure to check in with me and send pics periodically. I felt that given her medical experience in the vet industry, what we discussed in our prior meeting, and how well she took it when my dogs barked when she came in, i knew they were in good hands and felt comfortable with her taking care of my babies. I couldn’t recommend her any more.

We had a wonderful experience with Angelica! This was the first time Laurie and I had ever used a dog sitter, so naturally we were a little nervous about leaving our two dogs, Amo, our German Shepherd, and Shadow, our Chihuahua mix, while we traveled to Texas for our daughter’s wedding. From the very beginning, Angelica made us feel completely comfortable. She took the time to come to our home twice before our trip to meet the dogs and get familiar with their routine. Amo and Shadow both warmed up to her very quickly, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Angelica stayed in our home for two nights and three days and followed all of the instructions we left for her perfectly. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and messages, and it was reassuring to see that the dogs were happy and doing well. When we returned home, the house was in great condition and, most importantly, Amo and Shadow were happy and well cared for. We truly appreciate the care, communication, and attention Angelica gave them. We would absolutely recommend Angelica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you, Angelica!

This is our first time using a service/app like this. We were in a bind with a looming trip, and honesty had no other options besides one of us missing altogether. We were nervous having previously only used family and close friends to house sit and dog sit. However Kellie’s reviews and number of repeat clients had us feeling a little more comfortable. Luckily she was available very last minute and agreed to meet with us and the dogs which made us feel even more comfortable with the process. We left and by the 2nd day we were feeling much more comfortable with the situation due to her updates and photos. When the trip ended and we returned, we found the house in better shape than we left it in, and the dogs were still happy and healthy. Overall we are very pleased with Kellie and are happy we have found someone that we may be able to use again!

Jane has specific medical needs, and she monitored her respiratory rate, pulse, and overall comfort thoughtfully and responsibly. She was gentle, patient, and respectful of Jane’s temperament. She even went above and beyond by helping with household tasks without being asked. I felt completely at ease knowing Jane was in capable and caring hands. I highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Rancho Cucamonga

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Rancho Cucamonga on Rover is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $97 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. 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 6,536 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rancho Cucamonga. 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 Rancho Cucamonga 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 Rancho Cucamonga 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 Rancho Cucamonga 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.
