About: I’ve always been an animal lover and currently have both a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and providing walks, playtime, fetch, feeding, potty breaks, companionship, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I know how much peace of mind it gives me to know my own pets are with someone who will genuinely care for them, not just check in on them. I’m dependable, attentive, and will take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine so they can feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following feeding schedules, household instructions, exercise routines, and any special preferences you have for your pet. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same affection and care that I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule while I work on my graduate degree, which gives me availability throughout the day to care for your pet as much as needed. I’m able to accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of companionship. Having this flexibility also allows me to spend quality time with your pet rather than simply stopping by and rushing through their care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s normal routine, personality, boundaries, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding routines, and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both their space and their established routine so they can remain in an environment that feels familiar to them. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or anything else that may seem unusual, and I believe in keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
“Vivian was the perfect match for our dogs/fish sitting needs! We've been looking for quite some time to find someone that we felt comfortable with! And our Leila loved her! We'll definitely be asking her back!”
“We are so happy that we came across Lainya on Rover! We recently moved to the area and needed a weekend away to ourselves. It was on shorter notice but we took the gamble that we would find someone that would be comfortable with our pups. We couldnt be happier with Lainya. When we arrived home our dogs were in good spirits and we knew that she took good care of them and that gave us great comfort. She was very communicative, shared pictures, and updated us with the day. With anything out of the ordinary she let me know and we appreciated that. We have an older dog and they can be a bit high maintenance due to aging circumstances and she handled that great! She was respectful of our home and took great care of our dogs! We would feel comfortable recommending her to anyone 🙂.”
“It was such a pleasure to work with Karen! She is professional, reliable, kept me updated, and responded quickly to all my texts (I really miss my dog when I’m gone). She left my home in perfect condition. I look forward to having her stay in my home again soon.”
About: I’ve had cats and interacted with dogs my whole life. I have been house/pet sitting for friends and family since I was 12 and have cared for many different pet households. I have bathed and medicated multiple different dogs and cats and walked dozens of dogs. I’m currently available 24/7 for visits, dog walking, and house sitting. My schedule is very flexible and i’m willing to work odd hours if needed. I love meeting new animals and am always careful with nervous pets. I am great at following instructions and always respectful of pets and belongings.
“Ariel is thoughtful, she took the time to ask great questions about Molly to understand her care needs. I was able to feel safe leaving Molly in good hands. I trusted Ariel in my home. She played with Molly and made sure she was entertained. Ariel was awesome to send me picture updates to let me know things were going well. Grateful!”
About: Mom and daughter dog-loving team! We have years of experience caring for dogs-large and small. We will give your pets all the love and care they need while you are away. Working from home means we can care for your pet throughout the day. My 14 year old daughter and 12 year old son love to help care for animals and will give your pet extra attention, walks, and playtime. We can provide playtime, walks, medical care, food and water refills, or just potty breaks while you are away! We will gladly follow all guidelines you give and provide consistent training/commands that you request.
“Aubrey was fantastic while house sitting for us. We have a high-energy mini Aussie, and she handled her with ease and care. She kept us consistently updated, communicated clearly, and sent photos, which we really appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog and home were in such good hands. We highly recommend her—thanks again, Aubrey!”
“Eleshia was great! She stayed three nights with our cat and dog who do not get along with one another. She spent time with each pet and made sure they were comforted and well cared for. She left our home just as clean as it was when we left. We will definitely use her again.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Jacob to take care of our 8 year old dog at home. He is a kind soul that allowed us to really enjoy our long weekend without any worries. We have already booked him for our 9-day trip to the East Coast in September. He is very responsive and easy going. I'm grateful for his attentive care of our best boy!”
“Caitlin took wonderful care of our dog in our home while we were away. We received updates and photos and came home to a happy pup and clean house! We would recommend her for any dog sitting needs.”
About: I stand out by giving pets real attention and care, not just basic sitting. I’m reliable, calm, and good with different personalities, and I make sure every pet feels safe and loved. I’m currently not working another job, so I have open availability and can dedicate my time to providing reliable and consistent care for your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I always follow instructions closely, keep a calm and clean environment, and make sure pets are secure and well cared for at all times.
About: I grew up with horses, dogs, cats, and even goats and cows at different times. I have always "had a way" with animals and even have an associate's degree in equine management. I am retired with a flexible schedule, and care for my 87-year-old mom, my husband (as needed, ha!), and a friendly, spoiled beagle. I love to hike in the local area and would be glad to take your dog on walks in the desert or on the many paved trails nearby. We have a fenced yard and a dog door that can accommodate up to a medium-sized dog. Our dog (Tucker) is part of our family, and your dog would be treated the same way. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I have a garden and care for my elderly mom, but your pet can tag along for those activities, or stay crated in our house, depending on the pet parent preferences. I have a fenced yard and a friendly beagle to keep your fur baby company. I am home all day, so will be here to let them in and out for potty breaks. If pet-sitting in someone's home, I would not bring my dog along (unless requested).
“Hope was a date night saver for us! She took care of Chani for a few hours, who normally express a bit of separation anxiety with us gone, but with Hope she felt totally safe and relaxed at home! Easy to book with, super fast communication, kind, caring, ideal Rover experience! Thanks again, Hope!”
“Deannica was great. We booked her for a full week for our two dogs. She texted every day with updates and left our house cleaner than it was when we left. We will for sure be using her in the future.”
“Our experience with Amelia was excellent. She took such great care of our pets and paid attention to every detail. She was very responsive and sent us plenty of pictures of our pets. She took great care of our house too. I would definitely recommend Amelia as a pet sitter/house sitter and will rebook with her again.”

We are new in town and will be in Moab for a while Ariana stepped up and took care of our English cream golden 5-year-old boy Rio while we attended a wedding out of state .We couldn't be more pleased the way she cared for him like if he was her own. She stood overnight with him for four nights took care of him throughout the day Fed him let him out spent quality time and made sure he had everything he needed so he did not stress while we were out of town . She kept in constant communication day and night sending pictures and updates we are so pleased and thankful to find her. She is someone reliable trustworthy and has a compassion and great knowledge of dogs . We will use no one else in Moab.⛰️ ❤️❤️🙏🙏🐕🦺👋 Thank you Ariana ❤️🙏👍
Erin recently housesat for us on several occasions and did an excellent job! We have a dog and two cats and she took such great care of them.

FAQs for House Sitting - Redlands
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Redlands on Rover is $38.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Redlands. 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 Redlands 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 Redlands 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 Redlands 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.
