“Giselle was great with my dog and kitty 😺 She gave my dog his medicine as instructed and fed him as well. My dog is a picky eater and she was able to get him to eat. Will definitely use her again!”

“Tony was excellent. We were out of town for 11 days, he sent us updates and photos. He is an amazing communicator. Our flight canceled coming home and I had my sister go pick up the dogs, she said that the dogs were so calm and happy. He also left my house spotless. I couldn't be more happy with Tony's services. We will be going out of town a few more times this year, Tony will be our FIRST choice, nd hopefully only choice. We couldn't be more happy with the respect and love he gave to our home and our dogs. Thanks Again Tony.”

About: Dogs have been a particularly big part of my life. I grew up with a Chihuahua who had multiple litters, and I helped care for approximately four litters of puppies, including feeding, monitoring, and caring for them as they grew. I’ve also puppy sat a German Shepherd, Pit Bull mix, and Doberman puppy, which gave me experience handling young, energetic dogs that require confidence, patience, and plenty of attention. I’ve also had the experience of caring for a dog through her senior years. As my dog grew older, I became more attentive to her changing needs and learned the importance of providing extra patience, comfort, supervision, and gentle care for an aging pet. I have some experience with cats as well. While dogs have been my primary experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats too and have experience handling and bathing them. I understand that cats have their own personalities and boundaries, and I’m happy to give them time to feel comfortable and safe around me. Whether I’m caring for a playful puppy, an energetic adult dog, or a senior pet who needs a little extra patience, I want every animal in my care to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for. I am also currently taking dog training classes to become a dog trainer. I’m available starting Friday afternoon and all day on weekends for onboarding sitting. Weekdays: Available for morning walks Available for morning and evening check ins Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect while following their normal routines as closely as possible. Before caring for a pet, I make sure I understand their feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, medications if applicable, and any special instructions. In my client’s home, I’m attentive to potential hazards and make sure pets are supervised and kept in a safe environment. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to build trust and let them become comfortable with me at their own pace. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾💕

About: I was an ER vet in NM, CA & IL for 28 years. Rehab vet for the last 12 years. Semi-retired now. All the skills except training. I'm currently semi-retired. No more 12 hour work days. No more 6 day work weeks. But I still want to do what I love doing around dogs and cats and their owners. I have a cat named Oliver. He needs medication twice a day, so I will need to go check in on him while pet sitting. I'm also a night owl if you need someone later in the day.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets. I have cared for up to 8 cats at one time and currently care for 2 dogs in my home. I also grew up caring for 3 dogs of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, playtime, keeping pets safe, giving them attention, and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available for drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and make sure they receive the attention and care they need.
“Was our first time using Chloe and she stayed 4 days with our fur baby! We were so happy with her and she spoiled him with daily walks, cuddles and playtime! She sent pictures of him and he always looked so happy with her. She went beyond what we asked and came home to a happy boy and a clean house. ( which wasn’t expected)”

About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I had the joy of owning and caring for my family’s two Shih Tzus since I was 10 years old, and they became two of my very best animal friends. Sadly, they both crossed the rainbow bridge 2 years old. Now I give my love for my pets to others’ furry friends. Growing up with my Shih Tzus has taught me just how much love, patience, and care our pets deserve. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, house sitting, and babysitting, and family, friends, and babysitting clients have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their beloved pets as if they were my own. A fun fact about me: I’m a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) by day! My background has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I love using those principles to help animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know pets are family, and I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and give them all the care, affection, and attention they deserve! 🐶❤️ I have the most availability during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll do my best to provide dependable, loving care for your furry family members! Safety and comfort are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and welcome them into your home. I will follow your care instructions closely, ensure a safe environment, and make sure your furry friends receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection during every visit or walk. During walks, I will use appropriate safety precautions, keep your dog securely leashed, and remain attentive to their surroundings and individual needs. For drop-in visits, I aim to respect your home, follow your pet’s feeding and care routines, and ensure they have everything they need before I leave.

“I appreciate Marilyn staying with the boys again, for an at house sitting with my 2 pups. I would reccomend her to friends needing extra help for day trips or at home support. Thanks again 🙂”

“Jizelle did an amazing job watching my 3 dogs on New Year’s Eve. I have a senior dog with dementia that needs medication and she did a wonderful job administering the medication and watching over him throughout the night. She arrived early and was great at communicating with me throughout the night and sending me photos. Would definitely have Jizelle watch my dogs again!”

“Eliana took great care of our babies and our home! We felt confident leaving them in her care based on her calm, kind demeanor and the insightful questions she asked during the meet and greet, which showed her knowledge and intuition for animal behavior. She kept in great contact and was even a great sport about some circuit breaker issues that popped up while we were away. Reliable, responsive, and very sweet with our precious pets!”

I can also go back and forth between campus and your home to make sure your dog is fed, checked on, and given the attention they need.

We will definitely be asking for Tanja again if she is available for our next trip!”

Nick took wonderful care of our dogs! It’s always stressful to leave them, but after meeting Nick I felt very at ease. He seemed trust worthy, friendly, and a genuinely kind person. Upon returning home the dogs were happy and relaxed. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing a trustworthy person to take care of their furry family members! Thanks again Nick!

gisselle was so wonderful with my Coco. Coco is a senior dog with health problems and cannot get overly excited. Gisselle understood my concerns with leaving my Coco with anyone but me! She sent me updates and pictures of Coco throughout my absence. i would highly recommend her.

The average cost of House Sitting in San Bernardino is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $80 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.

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 San Bernardino 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 San Bernardino 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 San Bernardino 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.
