“Melissa did a wonderful job caring for our fur babies! Despite some hesitation from our pup at the beginning, he warmed up to her and was all smiles and licks-on-the-face within a few minutes! Melissa was great at sending pictures and updates throughout her stay and we appreciate all the loving attention she gave to both of our pets! Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve always been a people person and an animal lover! I enjoy getting to know new people and their furry friends, and animals tend to warm up to me pretty quickly! I have experience caring for both big and small dogs, as well as a kitten, and I’ve loved getting to know all their different personalities. I’m a friendly, patient, and responsible college student who loves making connections with both people and animals. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, giving lots of attention, or just keeping your pet company, I want them to feel happy, comfortable, and loved! I also know how important it is to feel connected to your pets while you’re away, so you can definitely expect regular updates, cute pictures, and little check-ins from me! I want you to feel just as comfortable with me as your pet does. My goal is to make pet care a fun, positive, and stress-free experience for everyone involved! 🐾 I’m currently a Psychology student at Sacramento State, where I balance school, a part-time job, and extracurricular activities! Although my weekdays are pretty structured, I still have time to fit pet care into my routine. I’m generally available on Mondays and Wednesdays after 5:00 PM, Tuesdays and Thursdays during select breaks or later in the evening, and Fridays after 1:30 PM. My weekends are much more flexible, with availability throughout the day on Saturdays and Sundays! I’m great at managing my time and planning ahead, so I’ll always make sure I have enough time to give your furry friends the attention they deserve! Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or some quality playtime, I’d love to make pet care part of my week. 🐾 I currently offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home, since I’m unable to host pets in my own home! I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I do my best to keep them happy in the environment they’re already familiar with. I always make sure to follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special routines their pets may have. I’m also big on keeping things clean, organized, and making sure your home is treated with respect! I love giving pets plenty of attention and affection, but I also understand that every animal has their own personality and boundaries. You can expect regular updates, cute pictures, and check-ins from me so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing! My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. 🐾💕
About: I’ve been a dog owner all of my adult life. My kids are grown and my two dogs crossed the rainbow bridge. I have lots of love to give your babies while you are away! I work full time. I’m available to take care of your pets by 5pm and all day on my days off. I am a nurse and have a rotating schedule including every other weekend. I’m available to stay at your home with your pets are welcome to stay at my apartment. I’m also available for short days, drop ins, or simply a walk.
About: I've always loved dogs, and want the chance to get to know yours as well! I myself have a very energetic miniature aussie, as well as experience pet sitting a wide variety of dogs. I grew up with a Shetland sheepdog, and have experience with dogs as small as 15-20 lbs, and as large as 101+ lbs. I have no qualms about dog breeds either, with all members of my family and friends having a healthy mix of dogs across the spectrum of size, breeds, and personalities. If your dog wants to cuddle and be pet, or go out and play endless fetch, I'm all about it. Or, I'm more than happy to stay in the house to give them some company. Totally up to you, and them! I'm a stay at home mom with lots of hobbies and the occasional tutoring session, so I have quite a bit of availability. Most of my availability is after my husband gets home from work, so I can give your pet the focus and love it deserves while my daughter stays home. I also have quite a bit of availability over the weekend to stop in and say hi. All of this being said, I'm flexible, and would love the opportunity to talk with you to see if we can work together for a solution that gets your pet the care and attention they need. I am happy to care for your pets in your home. I will arrive on time and consistently. More than anything, I will always communicate with you to let you know how everything went, and I'm happy to send pictures as well.
“Our pup was so comfy with Megan. He normally is so anxious and loses his appetite when we go on trips, and that wasn’t an issue at all with Megan! He was so taken care of and comfortable. The constant updates of pictures of walks and his normal routine made us feel at ease. She’s the best. Would 100% recommend her.”
“Brandie did and amazing job of watching our four big dogs. The had some special medical needs that she accomadated and we got photos plus great communication. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats before for friends and family, I also take care of my own! They’re my whole world! Your fur babies are my top priority I currently work at Sutter Health 4-5 days a week, I am able to care for your fur babies before & after work. I’m almost always available weekends 24/7! I will always make sure there are no windows / doors open or unlocked so your pets cannot get out. Along with making sure no food is accessible for them to get into easily.
About: I am a nursing student, mother, and fur baby mother to a sweet little dog, 2 cats, and a bearded dragon. I love animals and always have had a special connection to them ever since I was a child. I am looking to work while finishing school and spend some quality time with your pets. I'm a stay at home mom who is looking to take care of animals either for a few hours or overnight. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I make sure my pets are clean, fed, walked, loved and have fresh water. My babies have toys to play with and they are healthy.
“Shannon truly loves doggies! I have 3 seniors, who each have their own set of medical issues… collapsing trachea, epilepsy, arthritis, allergies, severe separation anxiety just to name a few… so I agonize over having to leave them. Shannon made this recent trip so much easier. She loved each one how they wanted, as they are so very different… She walked the one that liked walking, rubbed the belly of the one who can’t walk anymore and gave the mamma’s boy, who is not overly fond of others, his space and loved him on his terms when he was ready. I received lots of photos and videos, which was so reassuring to know they were happy and well taken care of. Shannon kept me informed along the way with both the ups and downs, which was very much appreciated. She did not give up when my seizure baby would not take his medication and tried every trick in the book including running out to the store for some new temptations… I know it can be frustrating and also stressful knowing without the medication, he will have a seizure but Shannon loved him on his terms and kept trying until it all fell into place. Having Shannon for this trip was a game changer for sure and I am so thankful for her!”
“Piper was lovely to work with! Communicative, asked great questions during the home visit, and took great care of our animals and home! We would absolutely have Piper house/pet sit again!”
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. Throughout high school and college, I regularly dog- and cat-sat for friends, neighbors, and friends of friends, caring for pets with a variety of personalities, ages, and routines. One thing that sets me apart is my ability to understand a pet's body language and cues. Every animal communicates differently, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and safe. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs a little extra patience, I adapt my care to what they need. I also know how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else's care. Because of that, I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and consistency while you're away. My goal is not only to make your pet feel happy and secure but also to give you complete peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands! I recently moved back home after spending 10 months living in Madrid, and I currently work part-time remotely. Because of my flexible schedule, I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether that's daytime walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or keeping your pet company throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and making sure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel most comfortable and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to recognize when a pet is relaxed, excited, or anxious. Whether we're going for walks, playing, feeding, or just relaxing together, I strive to create a calm, positive environment where your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved. I also understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful for both you and your pet. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and in good hands!!
“Alexis was great! She was available for a last minute quick trip and was able to make time to come over and meet my dog and go over everything before I left. I came home to a happy and healthy little boy with no issues at all!”
“Collin & Ashely are always great company for our anxious, large, snuggle pup pit bull. They are tidy, thoughtful, and keep us posted with lots of photos and updates. All my other reviews will tell you the same. They are consistent and reliable. Thank you! See you soon.”
About: I currently manage a busy, happy household with two dogs and two cats of my own. Having a full house means I am highly experienced in handling different personalities, managing feeding schedules, administering medication if needed, and keeping both canines and felines perfectly balanced and loved. I work from home so I’m very flexible when it comes to my hours. I’m able to do long activities as needed while still being able to seamlessly fit them into my routine. By providing fresh food and water daily. Keeping their mind stimulated with exercise and training. Taking my dogs to the park so they are able to socialize.
“Aniah is an excellent house and fur babies sitter! Aniah brings a very calming spirit to the home and to our littles. They all loved her because they genuinely felt her sweet and loving personality. I would hire Aniah again and again. I would trust her with Chulo, Chica, and Charlotte any and every day.”
“Alex is an absolute gem! My dogs love her & I can relax knowing they’re in good hands. She recently stayed with my two dogs while I was away on a two week vacation. Alex stayed in communication & sent pics daily. We came home to happy healthy dogs & a clean home. Thank you so much Alex!!”
“Helen stayed with my senior boxer for a week while we were in Hawaii 💖 she is the absolute best! My girl was cared for loved and happy! Pink, decided to stop eating, then got diarrhoea and puked 🙄 all in Helen’s care…and mostly because she’s so attached to me. Helen readjusted her food and loved her back to healthy, happy and relaxed. Plus she was in constant contact with me and sent pictures. Our house was in perfect order, Pink was taken care of, more than I could have hoped for. Highly recommend 🌺”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rocklin
We had a great experience having Deanna watch Zoe and Odie during our two-week trip! She was very communicative and sent photos and videos almost daily, which we really appreciated while we were so far from home. She even had to deal with Odie getting sprayed by a skunk and kept us in the loop throughout the whole ordeal. We were so grateful for her care and communication through that unexpected adventure! It was obvious both dogs loved her from the videos she sent - lots of cuddles and play time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were so comfortable and happy with her. Thank you, Deanna, for taking care of our pups!
I knew the minute I met Ellen she loved animals and that she would take great care of my senior dog. She provided excellent care, followed instructions and gave me detailed updates which I very much appreciated considering she has an infection. She stayed in my home and was very considerate of the space.
We had a great experience and couldn’t be happier. She did a wonderful job taking care of our Great Dane, Gunner. She kept us updated with pictures, which we really appreciated and loved seeing. Gunner was happy and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book with her again.
Mia is a top-notch sitter and an absolute sweetheart! She communicates clearly, sends plenty of pictures, and keeps me updated throughout the day, which gives me such peace of mind. She takes amazing care of both Bella and my home and has gone above and beyond to make sure Bella is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and Bella absolutely loves her! I highly recommend Mia to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly caring. She’s the best! 🐾❤️🐶🐾💜🐶
Taylor did a fantastic job with our Toby. He can be a real pill but she knew how to care for him. I would never have known by his behavior that we were gone almost 2 weeks. She was punctual and handled a medical situation with him very appropriately. I will definitely hire her again. Oh and the house was spotless and even clean sheets for two weary travelers. Thanks again.
Sydney was great with our cat, Goya, and also did an excellent job in looking after the house. She was on top of everything and communicated when there was an issue or needed advice. She also sent plenty of pictures of Goya. We have already signed her up for future stays.
Belinda watched our dog, Winston, for a week and she did a great job. He's a bit anxious and we appreciated how thoughtful and kind she was to him that week. She did a great job to make things as stress-free as possible for him and us! She was super communicative throughout the week with updates which we really appeciated. I will definitely be requesting her services again the next time we go away.
Sophia was amazing My dogs were treated as if they were her own She has a Natural gift as both my dogs related to her immediately She was very prompt in arrival and extremely courteous and kind by sending us photos while we were gone and keeping us abreast of every situation We trusted her 100% with our home and our dogs and we couldn’t be happier I highly recommend her as she is probably one of the best dog sitters you might find
Linzi and her family were wonderful hosts to my dogs Lucy and Georgie! Linzi sent me pictures just about daily of the dogs exploring their property and/or hanging out with the fam, and it was clear my pups were loving their visit - plus they got along great with their dogs! Very highly recommend and will definitely call on them in the future

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Rocklin is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $90 per night. On Rover, 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 2,574 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rocklin. 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 Rocklin 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 Rocklin 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 Rocklin 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.

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.
