Jazmine took such great care of my babies while we were out on the 4th of July! She was very communicative and followed all care instructions. She also kept my dogs entertained and comfortable during despite all the fireworks in our neighborhood. We’d definitely book her again!

Kat is nothing short of AMAZING!!! My Little pup is super hesitant around new people but he took to her right away. She was also super helpful when we had an issue with our flight. This is my first Rover

About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always focus on being attentive, patient, and reliable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they feel loved and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates for peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine will always be my priority, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I always make time for feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, needs, and boundaries to help them feel secure and relaxed. I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors/gates, and always make sure pets have a clean, safe, and calm environment. In clients’ homes, I’m respectful, reliable, and follow all care instructions closely. I also provide consistent updates and photos so owners always feel informed and reassured while away.

Julia was such a wonderful sitter for our senior pup and cat! She sent regular updates + photos while we were gone, and took on extra medicine for our dog last minute. She helped out with extra items like mail pickup and cleaned all of the items she used without being asked. I would highly recommend her to others!

Emily was absolutely wonderful! So caring to our pup and so thoughtful to us, sending pictures unprompted (such a lovely surprise to get throughout the day!) and really giving him the love we couldn’t while we were gone. I’d highly recommend Emily to anyone needing someone to care for their dog, she was fantastic :)

Their genuine care and attention to detail provide us with unparalleled peace of mind. Knowing that our pets and home are in such capable and loving hands allows us to fully relax and enjoy our time away. Chelsea and Rich always send great pictures and updates, which keep us connected to our pets and reassure us that they are happy and well-cared for. We always return to a spotless house, and the delicious treats they leave in the fridge are such a thoughtful touch. We cannot say enough good things about Chelsea and Rich—they have become an invaluable part of our lives, and we are incredibly grateful for their exceptional service. Thank you, Chelsea and Rich, for always going above and beyond!

About: I approach pet care with the understanding that every animal is different—whether they’re energetic, shy, routine-driven, or need a little extra patience. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have hands-on experience caring for pets with more complex needs. One of my own cats is on anxiety medication, so I’m very comfortable administering oral meds in a calm, low-stress way and paying close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, and mood. More recently, my family dog went through a three-month battle with cancer, where I was actively involved in adjusting care routines, monitoring comfort, and providing consistent, attentive support. That experience deepened my ability to respond thoughtfully to pets who need extra care, patience, and flexibility. I’ve also grown up in a household with up to 12 pets at one time, so multitasking and providing individualized attention is second nature to me. I’m confident managing different routines, energy levels, and personalities all at once. I’m highly detail-oriented and reliable, so you can trust that feeding schedules, routines, and any specific instructions will be followed carefully. I also prioritize communication—I provide consistent updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own: with patience, respect, and a genuine investment in their comfort and happiness. As a Ph.D. student, I have a flexible and structured schedule that allows me to consistently incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I plan my days around responsibilities, which makes it easy for me to prioritize visits, walks, and check-ins without feeling rushed. Caring for my own cats is already a big part of my daily life, so feeding schedules, playtime, cleaning, and monitoring behavior are second nature to me. Adding in pet care for others fits seamlessly into that routine. I’m also intentional about not overbooking, so I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning, midday, or evening visits, I’m able to show up consistently and stick to your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Overall, pet care isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and able to build my schedule around. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific habits your pet is used to—so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m very respectful of your home and make sure everything is kept clean, organized, and exactly how you left it. I’m also attentive to the details that matter, like monitoring eating habits, energy levels, and behavior, so I can quickly notice if anything seems off. Overall, I aim to create a calm, reliable presence so your pet feels safe, cared for, and as comfortable as possible in their own home.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, with 10+ years dedicated specifically to dogs. From tiny Chihuahuas to large, strong German Shepherds, I’ve worked with breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I’m also a lifelong cat owner and have cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, from playful and social to shy and reserved. I understand that each pet is unique, with their own quirks, needs, and routines, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. Animals seem to sense my genuine affection right away, and most warm up to me quickly. I bring calm yet positive energy that helps even timid pets feel at ease. I treat every pet like my own, offering attentive, protective, and responsible care. Whether it’s providing enriching playtime, keeping up with special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I go above and beyond to make sure your furry family member feels happy and secure while you’re away. As a music teacher, I currently work only three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to devote to pet care. From Wednesday through Saturday, I have ample time and energy to focus on your pet’s needs whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. My schedule allows me to give your furry friend the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I primarily provide care in my client’s home, where pets can stay in their familiar environment and feel most comfortable. This helps reduce stress and maintain their normal routines. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to playtime and exercise, and always give extra love and attention. In certain cases, I can also care for pets in my own home, especially small dogs or cats. In my home, they will have a safe, clean, and comfortable space, along with plenty of affection, supervision, and enrichment.

Annie showed up for a meet and greet with a clipboard and lots of questions. I really appreciated her attention to details. I also really liked how she interacted with Kenai. She’s very quick to respond, and also asked about taking my pup somewhere indoors to walk when we were in a really bad heat wave. I plan to reach out to Annie to hire her again. Thank you Annie!!

About: Hello, my name is Maira and I’m a life long animal lover. I’ve had all kinds of pets and cared for everything from turtles to fish, hamsters and birds, a rabbit, cats and dogs. Although I love all animals, Dogs are where my heart melts! I’ve taken care of friend’s dogs as well as helped friends and family basic train their small and large breed dogs. I have 10+ years of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages including my 90lb high energy Doberman which taught me a lot. If you remember one thing from my page I hope it’s this; I will take care of your furry babies as if they were my own. Monday through Friday I am available 6:30am - 6:30pm to care for your furry family. Saturdays and Sundays I am available 7:00am -7:00pm. If you need me outside of this time frame please let me know. During a drop in visit, I let your fur child out for a potty breaks and ensure they have plenty of water, food, and treats (if you okay the treats before hand) then hang out, play, and love on them for the remainder of the 30mins. During a walk booking, I will pick up your dog for a walk around the neighborhood. Which can be part structural and part sniffing to mentally stimulate and not just physically work out. The goal is a happy healthy pupper (and yes a 10 y/o is still a pupper) you will receive photos of our adventures and a message informing you how your baby’s walk went. Rain or Shine! Your Dog’s safety is my top priority. If it’s too hot or it is raining we will alter our walks with either a rain jacket or walking indoors at a near by pet friendly store. I am prepared with towels, plenty of water and a pet first aid kit should we ever need anything.

This was our first experience with Rover and a pett sitter. Not only would I highlighly recommend them both if you like us do not leave your dogs at home but find yourself having to figure out what to do on vacation. Sofia was amazing, after our initial meeting and she arrived on time sent us pictures during the day. If we are ever in the Anaheim area again and need a pet sitter she will be the person I will call.

Requested Bella last minute before our family went on vacation. Not only was she able to accommodate our needs which are relatively high during July 4th, she did so with so much care. We have 5 animals, 2 dogs, 3 cats who are fairly needy and stubborn. She handled them very well and had so much patience. Over the course of our vacation we received lots of updates on how they were doing and reassured us that they were okay. Bella is a nice and sweet girl who cares about animals and is very trustworthy, we would very much love to have her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Stanton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Stanton on Rover is $55.5 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 13,478 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stanton. 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 Stanton 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 Stanton 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 Stanton 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.
