About: I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I have experience caring for neighbors’ dogs and currently work part-time with a pet care company, where I help with walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and bilingual in English and Spanish. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and care I’d give my own! ❤️ I work remotely part-time for a pet care company and make my own schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m excited to offer my own services as well and spend even more time caring for pets. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and their parent’s instructions closely. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications are handled safely, and I’m happy to do a meet and greet beforehand. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and cared for.

“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.”


“In one word: Excellent!!! Claudia kept me updated on what was happening to my dogs. The biggest test was how they reacted when I returned. They were relaxed and free of anxiety. My dogs took to her instantly when she met them. Thanks, Claudia!!!”

“Wendy was great! Kept our two rambunctious doggies safe and comfy during our few nights away and sent us lots of photos and updates. We'd highly recommend her for your dog or pet care needs!”

“Siu was great with my two dogs. Especially my senior dog who needs a little bit more attention. He was attentive, communicative, and adamant about giving the best care to them. 10/10 would recommend!”

“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!”

About: Hi there! 👋 I work from home and have always had animals as a big part of my life, so I truly understand the love and companionship our furry family members bring. My home is pet-friendly with a large, secure backyard where your pup can play and feel safe! 🏡 I also love providing dogs with socialization and mental stimulation to keep them happy and engaged! 🎾 Just a quick note—while I encourage social interactions, this isn’t a substitute for formal socialization training if your pup needs it. Can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged friend! 🐾 I’m super clean and detail-oriented, which means your furry friend will be in a safe, well-maintained, and hazard-free home at all times. A tidy, organized space isn’t just for me—it ensures pups stay happy, comfortable, and out of harm’s way! 🐕🦺 - Walks, walks, and more walks! Your pup will get plenty of fresh air and exercise 🐱- No personal pets, so your pup gets full attention and support 💕 - Limited number of pups being hosted at a time, to ensure pups are not overwhelmed and receive the proper amount of attention they deserve ❌ - Aggressive animals are prohibited for the safety of others 🎾 - Each pup’s personality and uniqueness is personally vetted to ensure any group dynamics are smooth and safe 🍽️ - Feeding schedules are followed to a T 💧- Fresh, filtered water always available 🍃- A large, secure, and spotless backyard for roaming, sunbathing, and safe exploration 🚪 - Freedom to move in and out of the house—a cozy, clean space where pups can relax and feel at ease 🧸 - Enrichment toys, cuddles, and mental stimulation to keep their minds engaged and tails wagging! 🧹- A meticulously clean and hazard-free home—no harmful foods, small objects, or anything that could pose a risk to curious pups Because I pay close attention to every detail, you can rest easy knowing your pup’s routine will be followed with love and care, all in a safe, and welcoming home. If your pup is crate-trained, I ask that you bring their personal crate for boarding. Pups tend to feel more comfortable in the crate they were trained in, and so I want to make their stay as stress-free as possible. 🐶 Because I pay close attention to every detail, you can rest easy knowing your pup’s routine will be followed with care, any issues or possible concerns reported to you, all in a safe, spotless, and welcoming home. 🐾
“We had to find a sitter on very short notice, and Jisselle was a godsend. She was prompt, communicative, and took wonderful care of our dog. She also sent lots of adorable photos. Would absolutely book again!”

“Alejandra took excellent care of our three dogs, and our home. She communicated well, and transparently, which helped keep us informed on the health and welfare of our “kids”, one of whom was still recovering from dental surgery. She even took her to her follow-up vet visit. When we returned after our 11 day vacation, the house was clean and tidy and the dogs were clearly bonded with her. We will gladly book with Alejandra for all of pur future vacations!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for almost as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, and my parents bred and showed Dobermans, so I was surrounded from an early age by thoughtful, consistent dog care and training. With only a few gaps during college and early adulthood, I've had a dog by my side throughout my entire life. I'm currently a dog owner myself, and my dog is very much part of my everyday life. That's also how I approach boarding. Rather than caring for a large group of dogs, I prefer to host one guest at a time so they can settle into our household and receive plenty of individual attention, companionship, walks, play, and affection. I'm home much of the day, so a visiting dog isn't routinely left alone for long stretches. I believe dogs respond best to patience, consistency, clear boundaries, positive interaction, and lots of affection. I also know every dog has its own personality, habits, and comfort level, so I want to learn what makes your dog feel safe and at home. My goal is simple: while you're away, your dog gets to live as a beloved member of the household rather than feeling like they're being sent away to boarding. I work primarily from home, and my own dog is already my near-constant companion, so caring for another dog fits very naturally into my daily life. When I board a dog, my intention is for them to join our household and our routine rather than spend long stretches of the day alone. That means plenty of companionship, regular walks and outdoor time, play, relaxation, and, when it's appropriate for the individual dog, coming along with us on dog-friendly outings. I take my own dog with me frequently and am happy to do the same with a guest who enjoys it. Most importantly, I adjust the routine to the dog. Some dogs love being out and about; others are happiest relaxing somewhere familiar and quiet. During their stay, I pay attention to what makes them comfortable and adapt accordingly. I want each dog in my care to feel safe, included, and genuinely at home while their family is away. Safety starts with making sure a dog is a good fit for our home. Before a first stay, I prefer to meet with you and your dog and introduce them to my dog so we can make sure everyone is comfortable together. I strive to understand your dog's normal routine, personality, feeding and walking schedule, house rules, medications or special needs, and anything that makes them anxious, excited, or especially happy. I follow your instructions and try to keep familiar routines consistent while adapting to what I observe during the stay. I host only one guest dog at a time, which allows me to give them plenty of individual attention and closely monitor how they're settling in. I use leashes and secure handling outdoors, keep food and other potential sources of conflict managed carefully, and never assume that two dogs who get along well don't still need thoughtful supervision. Most importantly, I pay attention. Dogs communicate constantly through their behavior, and I want to notice when a guest is relaxed, uncomfortable, tired, excited, or needs something different. My goal is to provide a safe, calm home where your dog can become part of the family while they're in my care.

About: All animals tend to love me, I have not met a animal that has never liked me, even the most timid animals feel comfortability when come in contact with me I do online schooling, so dog walking would be the best side hussle to take on to earn that extra money on my own time. I care for pets like any other owner would, which is feeding, playing and walking. May even bathe them if they are needed after playing or walking
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.
About: I love animals. I grew up on a farm looking after all types of animals. When I got older and moved to a city I made sure to get a family dog. Currently I don't have my own dog but I look after my daughter's dog Chula. I am very energetic, I love taking Chula on hikes, letting her lead the way. But also love hanging out with her on my couch. I am happy to welcome any fur babies into my home and treat them like family. I am retired. During the week I look after my grandkids from 9-5. If your pet is good around kids they are welcome to come hang out with us during the day. If not then please only schedule with me at night or during the weekends. I regularly look after my daughter's Taiwanese mountain dog so my home is dog tested My wife and I are animal lovers so once your pet joins us we will treat them like part of the family but also make sure to follow any specific rules that you have set out for them.
About: Currently working from home full time! I own a 4 year old shihtzu terrier named Cooper. He’s a super friendly little guy who gets a long with basically any dog. On my free time I enjoy taking my dog to dog parks and interacting with other dog owners. I have experience handling all types of dogs and sizes. Seeing a dog's tail wag super fast is one of my joys! Aside from working and loving dogs, I do enjoy being a foodie and eating at the newest hot spots that open up. Let me know if there is anything else you need to know about me! Working from home full time so I can drop in to walk your dog during the day time if needed! Otherwise usually available weekends as well. I live in a apartment complex on the first floor so there is some room for your dog to roam around. There is also a dog park nearby.
“Alyssa is an incredible sitter who pays close attention to detail and asks a lot of questions to better understand your pet's schedule. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”

I cannot say enough good things about Dzit! She communicated with us so well throughout the entire time she took care of our fur babies and sent us plenty of pictures as well. She was very sweet and understanding, showed up on time, and took such good care of our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worries knowing they were being cared for by her. I couldn’t have asked for a better person. It’s so hard to find someone trustworthy and I’m so glad I found her. Hope to book her again another time!

Laura went above and beyond to care for our pets. She sent clear daily updates, handled their feeding and care instructions with total precision, and left our home in fantastic shape. Finding someone this reliable and caring is a huge relief. 10/10 recommendation for anyone looking for a top tier sitter!

Julia is wonderful. She was very quick to respond, reliable and trustworthy. She took the very best care of my aging dog Loki and kept her happy while I was away. I got home and Loki was smiling ear to ear! Julia kept the house super clean, sent lots of updates and was awesome all around. Thanks Julia

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!

The average cost of House Sitting in San Lorenzo is $68 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $100 per night.

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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

- 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.
