“Toni did an absolutely wonderful job caring for our pup while we were away. She was incredibly communicative and sent detailed, thoughtful updates that gave us so much peace of mind. We truly felt the whole time that our pup was safe, loved, and in very capable hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a spotless apartment, everything looked amazing. We’re so grateful for her care and attention and would gladly work with her again. Highly recommended!”
“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and cats for the weekend. They were well cared for and well loved, as her adorable pictures showed. She was extremely trustworthy, a great communicator and went above and beyond caring for the animals and our house. We are so lucky to have found her and can’t wait to have her come again!”
“Lucy was so great! We had a last-minute request that she was able to accommodate, she was great at communicating and sent us cute pics of our pup Capri, and Capri loved her! Would definitely book again (:”
“Gina did such a great job taking care of the place and making sure I had regular updates and photos throughout my trip. It meant a lot to have that peace of mind. She is truly an animal lover and I am so glad I found her! Definitely would recommend. Excellent job!”
“Sebastian did an excellent job housesitting Sophie and Maerwynn for 9 days. He communicated well throughout the stay, sending regular updates that gave us peace of mind. When Maerwynn wasn’t eating normally, he expressed concern right away, which helped us quickly resolve the situation. He was punctual, self-sufficient, and left our home clean and just as we had left it. I would gladly welcome him back in the future.”
“Rebecca lived in and looked after my older cat who has health issues and is very anxious and can be messy. Rebecca did a fantastic job of creating calm and routine for my kitty and by the end of her stay they were friends. Rebecca sent me daily photos and updates and asked me questions if she was unsure of something which really eased my mind. She also left my place clean and tidy. I will definitely book Rebecca in the future.”
“Naycis was so sweet with Bogart! She was very attentive to him and took him out to explore his surroundings which he loved. She was wonderful attending to all his needs as an 18 year-old. She regularly sent pictures and updates and was a lovely person. Bogart would love to see her again!”
“Jinah was fantastic. She took great care of both my dog and my cat while I was gone. Both immediately liked her. She took great care in watching how much they were eating and went out of her way taking Benny for his walks in the heat. She took great care of the house along with everything else. A wonderful pet sitter.”
“Kaitlyn was excellent with Riley. He has never accepted anyone else. Kaitlyn was so patient with him. He wasn’t socialized by his first owner, very much. And Kaitlyn gave him all the space and time Riley needed. By the time the shift was over, Riley was eating out of Kaitlyn’s hands. I know now that I can leave him with a Trustworthy and Professional Person. 🏆”
“Thad was prompt, communicative, and great with my dog. He kept the house in good shape and watered the garden as instructed. He is very personable. I enjoyed meeting him and will call him again.”
“Blake spent 3 nights with my dog Sam and everything went smooth. She communicates well and recommended a meet and greet prior to the sitting dates. When I got back home Sam, who has separation anxiety, was calm and happy to see me. I will definitely request dates with Blake when needed in the future.”
About: I've volunteered at the Sonoma County animal shelter for the past year walking, bathing and training dogs. I also have two dogs of my own, Dexter and Lulu, who I walk and feed everyday. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and I love it. I am a current student at Santa Rosa Junior College studying nursing and am looking forward to gaining more experience with pet care, as I have a passion for animals. Please contact me directly regarding availability, as it can differ with my school schedule. That said, I am extremely flexible, often able to take last-minute appointments, and always do my best to accommodate. I am available anytime on weekends, while weekdays vary but remain flexible around my classes. I can also do overnights if needed. I ensure pets receive attentive, personalized care in my clients' homes, including regular feeding, exercise, and companionship, while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment tailored to each pet's needs.
“Trey watched our 20 y.o. girl for the day. Our dog is elderly and becoming special needs; she wears diapers, is incontinent, and requires to be lifted in order to go to her peepee spot. Trey took care of her without any issues. He was communicative and--most importantly--had really positive energy when it came to his interactions with us and our pup. He even stayed an hour later than the original booking since I was running late to get home. I would recommend him.”
“Sofia stayed in our house and watched our two pups and cat over the weekend. She was quick to reply and left the house just as we had left it. Already have her booked for our next vacation!”
“We are so happy that we found Ashley. She was wonderful and took such good care of our two cats, two dogs (one with high anxiety) and chatty cockatiel. We received daily updates with pictures and were able to relax and enjoy our time away without worrying. We highly recommend Ashley and we hope she wants to come back again.”

Rebecca is amazing! Totally sweet and professional. She took care of our 3 cats and our newly moved into house while we were away for work. We got regular updates and photos of our three cats and kept everyone well fed, entertained and loved. She was very flexible with our changing schedules and patient with our disorganization while we moved. She is now our go-to pet sitter any time we go out of town (hopefully you’re okay with that Rebecca 😂). Hire her!!!…. but also don’t book her when we need her 😂. Thank you so much Rebecca! ❤️
Kaitlin housesat for us and did a phenomenal job! We have a senior dog with dietary restrictions and daily medications and three cats. Kaitlin not only provided excellent care, she provided daily updates and frequent pictures. She was communicative and proactively maintained our household even when unexpected issues came up. We came home to happy, healthy pets, a spotless home and a thriving garden/plants. We will definitely ask her to housesit for all our future family trips!
DeAnna is wonderful! She stayed with our tiny elderly chihuahua over a holiday weekend and took amazing care of her. We came back to a happy hound and a clean, tidy home. She was super communicative throughout our trip and sent pictures and updates while we were gone. I am so delighted to have found DeAnna and will be working with her again for sure!
Sheila was our absolute hero and stepped into care for our lovely little senior dog after a last minute cancellation from another sitter. She was wonderful. She sent daily updates about our pup and took great care of her and our home. I appreciated her open communication and ease and would 100% book with her again.
We can’t say enough good things about Berenice. She was so attentive to our dog and cat while we were gone. She sent daily updates with great photos showing us all that they were doing while we were away, and we could tell they were having a blast. She also took great care of our house and everything was just the way we left it when we came home. We can’t wait to have Berenice come watch our boys again (and they can’t wait either)!
Nyah did a wonderful job watching our cat while we were away. She was very reliable, respectful of our home, and clearly has a great love for animals. Nyah sent pictures and updates while we were gone, and it put my mind at ease to see our cat so happy and well cared for. I will not hesitate to book her services again. 5 stars, very highly recommended!
I've had really bad luck with dog sitters in the past so I have a lot of anxiety around leaving my almost 15 year old shihtzu mix with just anyone. Mia was amazing... I explained to her what had happened with previous sitters and she made every effort to make sure I was as comfortable as possible. She willingly came and met with Weez twice before the confirmed dates. Mia stayed at my apartment and took care of week for a week! She sent me pics and updates and was very communicative. I came home to a clean apartment and a very happy dog! Mia has given me a chance to take vacations and see family again. I could not recommend her enough!! I will be booking with her again!
Emma is amazing! We ended up leaving her with an injured dog that needed meds and additional treatment and a sick cat that had to be given pills daily. Her response was: No problem! Her experience as a vet tech was obvious. Upon return the house and our pets were very well taken care of. Thank you Emma!

FAQs for House Sitting - Roseland
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Roseland on Rover is $71.3 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,028 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roseland. 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 Roseland 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 Roseland 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 Roseland 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Roseland. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
