“This is the second time I've hired Kathleen to look after my dogs and my house. She has always been incredibly responsive and responsible. She consistently goes above and beyond both with my dogs (even hand feeds my spoiled little one when she's being stubborn) and my house (there was a leak Kathleen went out of her way to try and diagnose, she keeps my plants alive and happy, and my house spotless). I trust her completely and all my animals love her. She sends frequent updates with cute pics, and you can tell she loves all living things. My dogs love her right back and appreciate having a snuggle buddy. She's absolutely wonderful!”
“Avery is terrific - you'll enjoy your trip knowing your pets are in good hands! Very communicative, lots of photos and updates/information in an appropriate time and fashion. Would reccommend to friends and would use her again!”
“Anna was terrific! She looked after our house, our garden, our dog, and two bunnies with so much care and responsibility. She kept in great communication with us throughout, sending some photos which made us feel reassured and connected while away. Taking care of our home, garden and pets is no small task, but Anna handled it all beautifully. She is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We felt completely at ease knowing everything was in her hands. We would definitely hire Anna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring house and pet sitter.”
“Sonia is an amazing sitter and kind person! Between the checkins with cute photos and clear communications, we knew our two boys were in good hands. Definitely recommended!”
“Jessica stayed with our senior French Bulldog over the weekend and it couldn’t have gone better. We are so glad to have found someone who took care of our house and our pup so perfectly. Already looking at her schedule to book her again!”
“Rebecca was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Otis, while we were away. She took great care of up, provided lots of updates, and left our home immaculately clean! We will definitely book again.”
“Kevin was super easy to communicate with and stayed in touch while I was out of town. He was extremely responsible and took great care of my special needs dogs. I’ll definitely re-hire Kevin!”
“Limari was great w my pups, she was communicative and flexible with my newness to the app in a few years. The pups seems happy and the house looked better than I left it! I'll certainly be using her services in the future”
“Amanda was so great! She updated me with pictures and updates all weekend. Our dog is a senior and has some health issues and we don’t like to leave her with just anyone. We will definitely rebook with Amanda! 😊”
“We've gone with Vanessa to house-sit our Jack Russell Terrier, Maddie multiple times now and she's the best! She's quick to respond to texts and always leaves the place neat and clean. She also sends us texts and pictures of Maddie while we're gone which we love. Knowing Maddie is with Vanessa while we're gone makes our trips 100 times more enjoyable. She's awesome!”
“Laura was great with our girls and our home! Laura was very communicative and sent tons of photos. Both our dog and cat appeared very well taken care of and spoiled during her stay ◡̈”
“Highly recommend Krista. She sent photos and updates throughout the day. She is very responsive and answered all my messages thoughtfully. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We will for sure call her back :)”
“Victoria was awesome! She was communicative, sent pics and updates, and left the house in great shape. And most importantly, my pups were happy and my mind was at ease the entire trip. Would absolutely hire her again in the future.”
“Chris was an excellent house and pet sitter! She gave detailed updates and photos every day and kept all the pets on schedule with food and meds they needed to take. The house was left clean, tidy and safe when we arrived back home. Would hire again!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give every pet. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, so ill make it a priority to keep owners updated with photos, messages, and details about how their pet is doing. Taking the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like a member of my own family. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners by providing reliable, attentive, and loving care every visit. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. As a soccer player, I stay active and enjoy going on runs, long walks, and spending time outdoors, which allows me to provide plenty of exercise and engagement for pets in my care. I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate extra time and attention to each pet throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free. Carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, any medication instructions, and any specific preferences provided by the owner.
“Natasha is fantastic! We were nervous to leave our 3 month old puppy alone for the first time, but Natasha made it so easy. She stayed in our house and sent us photos, videos and detailed updates frequently. She followed all of the rules we set for our puppy, and our pup was happy and so well taken care of. We definitely recommend her and would utilize her trustworthy services again!”
“Amazing ..I have a very difficult crew of pets- 3 dogs and a cat. One of which is a very high maintenance boarder collie. I was worried for Namie as I know how hard it is to keep my crew happy. Namie did it all! Took them to the park every day, and followed through on every task. She took such amazing care of my pets I knew they were so happy..Namie sent photos and updates daily. We were blessed to find such an amazing pet sitter she also took great care of our house…which was also difficult - the dogs she’d like crazy - so daily shedding on dark wood floors can be a pain ..the house was spotless…the roses alive and thriving in hot weather..Namie went above and beyond in every way! We are so grateful to Namie- to be able to take a vacation and not worry about our babies and to come home to a clean house and happy pups ..absolutely recommend Namie -I’d give her 100 stars!!!”

Limari was fantastic! On time, communicative, and our pup is so comfortable with her, she fell asleep within minutes of Limari getting here. We received pictures and updates and it was so clear that our dog was being well taken care of and loved. Our senior dog requires extra care like medications and diaper changes, and Limari handled everything with ease. We are so grateful for Limari’s dedication and professionalism, and would highly recommend her to others!
Laura is amazing. We have a very smart and stubborn corgi, and she stayed with him for nearly 10 days. She sent us regular photos and kept us very updated. He was very happy and extremely well taken care of. We cannot say enough good things about Laura. We would recommend her extremely highly.
We love whenever Avery is able to hang with our pup while we are out of town. He tends to need a minute to warmup, but her patience with him is appreciated and puts us at ease while we are out of town. She will treat your home with respect while you are away and you will return with things looking exactly the way you left them (if not better).
Kevin took wonderful care of our dog, Watson, while we were away from June 25 to July 2. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. He took Watson on walks to parks and trails, played ball with him using a long leash so he could safely enjoy the feeling of being off leash, followed all of our feeding instructions, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. We always felt connected and knew Watson was in great hands. What impressed us most was how observant Kevin was. Everything he told us about Watson matched his personality perfectly, which reassured us that he was truly paying attention and getting to know him as an individual. It’s clear that Kevin understands dogs, genuinely cares about them, and gives them the love and attention they deserve. We came home to a happy, healthy dog, and that says everything. We highly recommend Kevin and would absolutely trust him with Watson again.
Shirley was a wonderful sitter! Sent great photos and updates multiple times a day, and both of my pets seemed so happy—even our cat, who is usually shy and hides from sitters, spent her weekend out and about in the living room. Would definitely ask her to care for our girls again!
Jovi can be quite particular with whom he is comfortable with, so it was a great sign that he did not bark at Polli at our meet and greet. When she arrived for sitting, he was just fine with her in the apartment and didn't try to bark at her to leave. It is always nice to feel your dog is comfortable when leaving! I was gone for a week and when I got home Jovi was clearly well cared for. Polli did a great job getting new pony tails for him so he could see, the house was clean, and Jovi was in good spirits!
Mari is fantastic and clearly a cat lover - and understands cats! When she came to meet Busy for the first time, she took all the time needed to bond with my kitty and ask all questions about her care. During her time with Busy, I received the cutest photos and videos showing my kitty super comfortable, getting all her play time, and cozying up for naps every day during her stay. Mari also maintained my apartment extremely well and I’m very thankful for that! I am so happy Mari is now in our lives and I wouldn’t think twice before booking her again!
Kyra was truly wonderful! She was so kind and sent us photos and updates during our trip abroad. From the moment we met her we knew Chester P was in good hands. Kyra gave us so much peace of mind leaving our little guy and she always answered any questions or concerns we had when we were away. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful and we would happily have her look after our little guy again. Thank you so much again, Kyra!

FAQs for House Sitting - San Marino
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in San Marino on Rover is $72.15 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 15,216 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across San Marino. 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 Marino 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 Marino 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 Marino 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
