“Angie was great. She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire time she took care of both our pups. The pups were healthy and happy and our home was kept clean. We would have her house sit for us again.”
“Daria was a great dog/house sitter, even with a last-minute booking and a sick dog. She watched our dog for over a week and even did an unexpected vet visit when she wasn’t feeling well and needed extra tests and adjustment in her medications. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands!”
“Ashlyn is amazing!!! Thanks to her calm, easy, attentive presence, our very shy new kittens took to her right away! And thanks to her experience, competence, and unflappable nature, she was also the perfect person to leave in charge of our house, which she took good care to leave clean & orderly. She also sent great updates, photos, & videos of the kittens every couple of days as we had asked. We will definitely book Ashlyn again for our next trip if she's available!!!”
“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”
“Tori was absolutely wonderful. Our dog is very skittish and does not warm up to people easily, but within minutes of meeting Tori, she was affectionate and clearly comfortable. Tori was incredibly responsive, responsible, proactive, attentive, and respectful throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated, took amazing care of our dog, and treated our home with real care. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing both our dog and house were in such capable hands. We cannot recommend Tori highly enough and are already planning to book her again to stay at our house when we travel later this summer.”
About: I have two dogs and two cats. I’ve done dog walking since early middle school and pet sitting for two years. I love animals and have for a long time. I’ll bring treats and spoil your furry friends! Walks, cuddles and playtime are my specialty! I just finished my semester of school and am pretty free for the summer! I love excuses to go out of the house and go on walk adventures with dogs or cuddles with your cat (or walk them if they like walks too!) For walks I can double leash just for added security and safety with dogs. I can swing by during set times you want me to be there, give food and play or go on walks. If you want me to house and pet sit I will bring my own stuff to keep myself entertained and maybe a few treats to share with your furry friends.
“Christine was wonderful and kept me informed with everything that was going on at my house. When I got home, the dogs were calm, which to me is a good sign of a caring sitter.”
“Nicky did a great job watching both our house and our sensitive Catahoula hound! Our dog has not done well when we have kenneled her previously, so we thought she would be better off at home while we left on a 10 day trip. We were very anxious about our dog, but Nicky really put our minds at ease after our first meeting weeks before we left, and she followed through by providing great care while we were gone. Nicky sent thorough updates with photos and also bought our dog a new toy and some treats, which was going above and beyond. We were mostly concerned with our dog's well-being while we were gone, but she was also respectful of our home and took good care of everything. We will definitely contact Nicky the next time we need a house/dogsitter!”
“We feel so lucky to have found Shanley! Our dog absolutely loved her and we felt very at ease leaving him in her care. Shanley was super engaged, responsiveness, provided lots of updates, and was very respectful of our home. We definitely recommend and hope she’ll take care of our pup again in the future!”
“Linett took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. We have two strong and energetic bully breeds and they definitely got to have lots of adventures and snuggles with her. She was very communicative and shared photos and videos of the doggos while we were gone.”
“Francis did great! We have a reactive dog that doesn't do well with new people. He did great with Francis. We got lots of updates while we were away, came home to a clean house and detailed notes. We would definitely book again in the furture.”
“Parind was a fantastic sitter for our dog! He was consistently communicative and sent us many updates (and photos) while we were away. We felt reassured and that she was safe the entire time. She’s an older dog who needed extra medication and care; Parind took it all in stride and managed the additional needs. Our dog was loved and cared for, and he was respectful of our home. We look forward to booking Parind again!”
About: I come from parents who did Alaskan dog mushing with over 20 dogs. I grew up surrounded by dogs and have experience with many breeds. I know how to train, help with senior care, and provide any advice you’re looking for. I’m currently working part time, so I can quickly adapt to any pet or house needs you might have. I’m also very physically active so any further exercise is welcome! After growing up with dogs in the Alaskan wilderness surrounded by moose, I definitely have good habits of staying aware of my surroundings. I’ll be able to fully dedicate myself to your requests!
“Timmy is a senior dog and boarding him has become a challenge. i found Sergio on Rover and had a good feeling from the start. Super responsive and the meet and greet went very well. I got reliable daily updates on my trip to Japan and When I got back Timmy was relaxed and happy. I could tell he was very well looked after. I would definitely recommend him to look after your best friend!”
“Jenny was absolutely amazing. She came over for a meet and greet and brought both the cats and dogs treats. They instantly loved her. She is very responsive and very good with animals. My two dogs and two cats sat at the door after she left waiting for her to come back. She sends daily updates and took such great care of all of my four-legged kids. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants their animals to be well cared for. Thanks again Jenny!”
About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I have over 11 years on and off and 5 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I've worked as a veterinary assistant in multiple settings, including a feline-focused practice and a facility that specialized in dog boarding and walking. These experiences taught me how to safely handle animals with different personalities, energy levels, medical needs, and comfort levels. Because of my veterinary background, I'm comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, stress, discomfort, and potential health concerns. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and positive interactions, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, playtime, medication support, extra attention, or simply a calm and reliable companion, I'll treat them with the same love and respect I would my own. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I currently work full time at the zoo so my time is limited to before and after work and my weekends but I will do what I need to to meet your needs. I will always follow the owners instructions to a T and even go above and beyond to try and ease the clients worries in whatever ways I need to.
“We can’t thank Michelle enough for the incredible care she provided to Hampton during our 12 day trip. This was our first extended vacation since Hampton was recently diagnosed with chf, and leaving him was understandably stressful. From our very first meet and greet, Michelle immediately put us at ease with her kindness, confidence, and genuine love for animals. Hampton now requires medication six times a day, and Michelle never hesitated to take on his complex care routine. She made sure he stayed on schedule, kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and treated him like he was her own. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a spotless home. Michelle exceeded every expectation, and we would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond, Michelle is the one. Thank you again for everything! We are so grateful.”
“Couldn’t recommend Eleanna more! She watched our dog and cat while we were away for a week and was very communicative the whole time. She sent us lots of pictures and made sure they both got lots of exercise and love.”
“We had a great experience with our dog /house sitter, Julia! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. She also kept our home clean and treated it with respect. It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and received plenty of attention and love. We felt completely at ease knowing our pet was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

This is my 2nd time hiring Laura and I'm so glad I did! I was away from my pets (a senior cat and anxious dog) for 2 weeks. Laura provided excellent care and attention to my pets and I felt very comfortable knowing they were in Laura's hands. Laura made sure they were both happy and safe and that's all I could ask for. She also left the house spotless and even did some extra cleaning. I would recommend Laura to anyone and will hire her again in a heartbeat because my pets love her!
I’m so thankful to have Brenda as my dog walker/sitter! My two boys love her and she is great with them. She sends me pictures of the dogs during their walks and when she feeds them or gives them. She is a great communicator and she is very reliable. She is someone you can trust with your fur-babies!

Alisha did a wonderful job caring for our two dogs while we were overseas for two weeks. This was our first time hiring a house sitter, and were a bit anxious about leaving our pups (a 9 month old and a 16 year old) with a new person, but Alisha's friendliness and professionalism made us feel comfortable right away. Everything went smoothly, we received regular updates and responses to our communications. When we came home the house was sparkling and the pups were happy! We will definitely be repeat customers!
We are so happy to have connected with Jamie who provided house-sitting care for our daughter’s husky-malamute mix, Kazami. Jaime was caring and attentive to Kazami, who at 2.5 years old is energetic and loves the attention! Jamie walked, fed, and played with her, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our family can wholeheartedly recommend Jaime!
Kimberly is an amazing dog sitter and house sitter!! She is great with communication and providing multiple daily updates to make us feel comfortable knowing our dogs are being taken great care of. She has watched our pups a couple times now and we’ve been very happy with her services! She also takes great care of the home too!
This was a fantastic experience and all due to the care and communication we had with Siu Kei K. He was on punctual, did a great job caring for our pet, sent lots of pics and we were able to relax. Rover should take note of how much Siu Kei K. has earned our trust through his kindness with us and our pet, and his professionalism. I really can't recommend Siu Kei K. enough. Anyone interested in getting a pet cared for should put Siu Kei K. at the top of their list. We will be using Siu Kei K. again in the near future if he is available! Ken
Kayla was for a week our in-home cat sitter and she was pure magic. She is the cat-sitter equivalent of Mary Poppins—truly beyond compare. As anxious pet parents of needy cats , we were looking for someone who could handle specific routines and provide constant, loving care. Kayla exceeded every expectation. • Exceptional Cat Care: She treated our cats like her very own, building a wonderful relationship with them and ensuring they were happy and stress-free. She followed all of our detailed instructions perfectly, managing our cats' needs. • Above and Beyond: Kayla didn't just meet our expectations; she went above and beyond. Not only did she care for the cats, but she also took immaculate care of our home, leaving it as neat and tidy as when we left. • Peace of Mind: She was a pro at managing our pet-parent anxiety, providing timely updates and clearly demonstrating her dedication. We can't recommend Kayla enough. If you are looking for a trustworthy and absolutely amazing sitter who will treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect, look no further. We will absolutely be booking her again!
Min was amazing! Right away we knew Min would be a great fit for our 5 year old labradoodle. Min kept us updated and sent pics throughout his stay. He took very great care of our dog and home. We plan to stay in touch with Min and use his services in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - San Lorenzo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in San Lorenzo on Rover is $69.55 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 9,532 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across San Lorenzo. 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 San Lorenzo 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 Lorenzo 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 Lorenzo 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 San Lorenzo. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
