“Elton had a fantastic time! 🖤 She kept me updated throughout the entire booking and sent pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Elton was well cared for, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. I really appreciated her communication, kindness, and how attentive she was to his needs. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. As a child, I always wanted a pet but was frequently told no. As a teenager, a family member needed an indefinite pet sitter for his young schnauzer. I took care of his baby for 3 months and fell in love with being his provider. It was devastating when I had to return him back to his owner and my parents felt terrible. They finally saw the capable person that I was and gave me my own puppy to take care of! My mother and I were his sole caregivers up until he passed. His name was Panda. Right after school, I’d put his leash on him and would take him on lively walks. I taught him how to do tricks, even roll over! He was mostly in for the treats. I took him on my long car rides where he mostly slept in the backseat but you could tell how much he loved it. I am very serious about safety so of course he had a seatbelt. Towards the end of his life, he became sick. It was like he became a senior in one singular, sudden day. He had a plethora of medications and supplements that he needed to take that I became responsible of. I was also the spokesperson for him during his scary vet appointments. Needless to say, I will take good care of your pet. Whether they are a puppy or a senior, I have it handled. I lived a life where I was able to fully love my boy and it would be a token to him that I take care of your babies. I am currently not working so I am mostly free from Monday-Thursday from early morning to sunset. I am very selective about my time from Friday-Sunday but I can always make space for your fur baby with proper communication! I do not have the space in my home to take care of your pet but I can always go to yours! I am a rule-follower so whatever you tell me, I will gladly do. No matter how specific.
“I’m a repeat client and for good reason! Melissa sends updates and pictures everyday! She’s professional and must be a calming presence on my dog. We really appreciate her and would recommend to anyone.”
“Very sweet lady! Did a great job watching the house and our pets! Kept in touch with us while we were out of the state. Sent cute pictures of the dogs and cats! I would ask her to housesit/ pet sit again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets.

About: I’m new to the Rover community but I look forward to expanding my profile and making time for your companions. My family and I have had dogs are entire +20 years, til this day too. We’ve had large and small dogs, several breeds, some became mothers, and some left the family—so I’ve experienced full life cycles of dogs. Because of my understandings of having a furry companion, I have a soft spot for all furry buddies and i’m committed to learning and adapting to taking care of a new friend if it means making a fellow pet owner’s life a little easier. I love to be active so I can take your buddy for nice nature walks, play with them, or even down time with endless head/belly scratches—whatever your friend needs I can give. My two dogs, Muffin and Biscuit enjoy short walks and eating snacks so they’re two furballs of fun! I’m available for drop-ins or house sitting when needed.

About: Hello, I am 40 yrs old I live in Mojave, Ca. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own and I have always had animals in my homes growing up as a child, it taught me compassion and patience. I love to interact with all types of animals, dogs/wolves are my favorite tho...my pets are more than just pets, they are my FAMILY...I would also treat yours as family. I work, graveyard shifts so I'm home pretty much all day so my life would be surrounded by your pups lol. I work graveyard so I will have all day with your fur-babies and then just before it's time to put them to bed I will be leaving to work, but if I am called into work earlier than someone is ALWAYS home to help with boarding. I have a fenced yard that your pups can run and play in all day or night...as long as they are all dog friendly of course.
About: I’ve spent nearly my whole life around animals, and I genuinely can’t imagine it any other way. Almost 30 years working with horses — training, rehabbing, and caring for them — taught me patience, how to read an animal’s body language, and how to stay calm when they’re not. That instinct carries straight over to dogs, cats, and just about anyone with fur. When your pet is with me, they’re not an obligation on a checklist. They’re company. I’ll keep their routine steady, give them the attention and exercise they need, and send you updates so you’re never wondering how they’re doing. Whether it’s an anxious rescue who needs a gentle hand or a high-energy goofball who needs a real walk, I’ve got them. Acton/Santa Clarita area. Reach out and tell me about your crew — I’d love to meet them. I work from home, so pets aren’t squeezed into the margins of my day — they’re part of it. My schedule is flexible, which means I can match your pet’s routine instead of forcing them into mine: morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, all of it stays consistent with what they’re used to. Between my own animals and my work with horses, caring for animals is already woven into every day. Adding your pet to that rhythm isn’t a stretch — it’s just one more member of the crew. I’m around throughout the day to keep an eye on things, so your pet gets steady attention rather than a quick drop-in and gone. In your home, my first priority is keeping your pet’s world exactly as they know it — same feeding spots, same walk routes, same routine. I don’t rearrange things or cut corners. I make sure doors, gates, and yards are secure before anything else, because a lot of trouble starts with a gate that didn’t latch. I keep your keys and access details private and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine. With animals themselves, decades of reading horses taught me to watch body language closely — I can tell when a pet is anxious, overstimulated, or not feeling right, and I adjust instead of pushing. New environments and unfamiliar dogs get introduced slowly and on the pet’s terms. I keep an eye on hazards most people miss: food left out, toxic plants, an open trash can, a fence gap. You’ll hear from me with updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and settled. If something seems off health-wise, I’ll reach out right away rather than wait — and I’ll always have your vet’s info on hand just in case.
“Kimberly did a great job. She had to manage two large dogs over three days. The house and the pups were well cared for. I asked Kimberly to abide by some fairly strict rules with the dogs in order to manage their high-energy and potential anxiety and she did an excellent job. Kimberly have our pups multiple daily walks, administered pet medication, and maintained the security of the house. I strongly recommend Kimberly for your pet/house sitting needs.”
“Mariah took wonderful care of my dog. She sent me updates on how everything was going. When I got home I could immediately tell my dog was relaxed and happy. Highly recommend. Thank you Mariah!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 267 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roosevelt. 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 Roosevelt 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 Roosevelt 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 Roosevelt 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.
