“Thank goodness for Grace! She is the dream pet sitter. She was so helpful, communicative, and most importantly made me feel so much better about leaving my kitty. So grateful for her!”
“Jade was so wonderful and communicative! I was truly able to enjoy my time away knowing that she was taking such good care of my babies, including giving them the medicine they needed! Cannot wait to ask Jade to watch my animals again in the future!”
“Our dogs are so much happier being left home with Cheyenne than being left alone on event nights!! Thank you so much for your sweet care of our pups! And the old Bub cuddles!😉”
“Leah was great! She was available fairly last minute for me after a cancellation, came over before our booking to meet my pup, and sent pictures throughout the sit. Would definitely use her again!”
“Andrea is the best dog/house sitter. She understood and respected my dog's personality of being aloof and not bonding with new people. This is so important as it is a quality of her breed. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I received continual communication and pictures reassuring me that all was well. It was my first time leaving Bailey and it worked out perfectly. I found Andrea to be calm, attentive and caring with Bailey. Highly recommend her!”

“What's better than watching your dog FLIP OUT with JOY as soon as he sees the pet sitter? Not much! The dogs love Corey, and we love that for them. And us. Reliable, trustworthy, dog's best friend. We're grateful for Corey & his services.”
“What a giant blessing Kendi is to my little pack! She was wonderful with three very different personality filled pups and each of their needs. She was patient with my newly adopted and somewhat reactive guy, accommodating to my post op senior and lovingly patient with me gal who loves her back scratches on every single lawn! I loved and appreciated the many photos, walk updates and questions if anything was unclear and her willingness to extend the care when my flight went haywire. Thank you Kendi!!! Your care is so incredibly appreciated and we hope to have you back soon!”
“Gaby was absolutely FABULOUS. Our Fur Baby Jax immediately fell and love with her (I think the feeling was mutual). She was able to accommodate us at the last minute and in the midst of a storm no less. Gaby is sweet and kind, responsible and attentive. She’s already one of my favorites. I feel very comfortable with Gaby she gets raving reviews from us!!!”
“Lauren is fantastic. She sent us regular updates and photos and was a great communicator. We felt so comfortable and at ease being away with her there taking care of Percy, and it was clear that he quickly felt comfy with her too. We look forward to working with her again.”
“Our pets seemed happy and well cared for when we got home from our trip! Tayler was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates. Thanks again!”
“We are so incredibly grateful to Alisa for taking such wonderful care of our three pets while we were away. She was extremely responsive, reliable, and handled everything with great independence, which gave us real peace of mind. What impressed us the most is that even our very shy kitten, who usually keeps her distance, slowly warmed up to Alisa and even approached her — something that truly means a lot to us. We absolutely recommend Alisa without hesitation. Thank you again for everything!”
“Tom could the Platonic ideal of pet - and house-sitters. We’ve booked him three times and each time he’s managed to surprise and delight us with his kindness, creativity, sense of humor and responsiveness. He always finds a new way to go above and beyond our expectations, and it is such a comfort and delight to know that he is taking wonderful care of our beloved dogs—he makes us want to go on more trips!”
“Arlondriah was amazing with Johnny! He is a bit skiddish and requires insulin injections for his diabetes, and she pulled it off like a rock star. Can't wait to use her again :)”
“Sharon was really wonderful! This was our first time using a pet/house sitter. We were very nervous about it and Sharon gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our vacation. From the start, she had great communication. Our large dog and tortoise were well taken care of with check ins each day and our house was too. She even threw her sheets and towels in the wash and dryer, and took out the trash before heading out. We had happy pets when we returned and are so excited to have a reliable and caring person to use in the future.”
“Hayley was reliable and communicated well. She bonded with Maxi right away and saw how needy he was and how much love he needed. I trust her and would book her again.”
“Prescilla saved us! We needed someone last minute and she made it happen for us she always keeps great communication with me and I feel super safe with my pup in her hands <3”

Lauren is fantastic. She sent us regular updates and photos and was a great communicator. We felt so comfortable and at ease being away with her there taking care of Percy, and it was clear that he quickly felt comfy with her too. We look forward to working with her again.
Katherine was very responsible and thorough. She sent me frequent pictures and updates of my cat while she was staying with her. I felt like Katherine made Cleo her priority for the days she was booked to pet sit and I appreciated the open lines of communication. I did not worry about Cleo's well-being while I was away because I knew she and Katherine became fast friends.
First time booking with Adam, and I truly can’t thank him enough. Three days before my husband and I were supposed to leave for a work trip, our usual pet sitter texted us saying she had food poisoning and could no longer help. I was honestly terrified. We have a 19-year-old Maltese named Bear who has been by my side since I was 18. Bear is in the final chapter of his life and requires a tremendous amount of specialized care. The thought of leaving him with someone we didn’t know was incredibly stressful. After exhausting every personal connection we had, we finally took a leap of faith and booked Adam through Rover. It was the best decision we could have made. Even with only three days’ notice, Adam went out of his way to make a meet-and-greet happen before we left. From the moment we met him, we immediately felt at ease. He brought professionalism, good vibes, and the attention to detail our animals needed. Adam met our two cats and, most importantly, Bear. We warned him that Bear is deaf, blind, wears diapers full time, and has recently started showing signs of Sundowning/dementia. At this stage of his life, keeping him comfortable and feeling safe is our absolute priority. Because of his needs, we always have someone stay in our home with him when we travel so as to keep him in a familiar environment and not make his confusion worse. I warned Adam there would be accidents, diaper changes, oral medication, and most likely having to wake up with him in the middle of the night if he had any restless spells. Kinda like having a newborn. None of it scared him. Instead, Adam listened, asked thoughtful questions, paid attention to every detail, and made us feel like Bear was in incredibly capable hands. I felt so at ease getting on the plane the next morning. While we were away, Adam kept us updated, communicated consistently, sent us headshot-quality pictures of everyone, and treated our animals with the same patience and care that we would have given them ourselves. Even our cat Ellie, who is scared of everyone new, started to feel comfortable coming out of hiding a few times to say hi! Bear's senior needs are no joke, and I am sure it presented it's challanges for Adam, but he never let us feel that. Every update he sent was full of nothing but positivity, which allowed me to focus on my work trip instead of stressing about what was going on at home. Leaving the needs of my senior pup in a stranger's hands was really hard for me to do. I am so grateful to have found Adam and the excellent care he provides. I walked into our house after 4 days of being away to a clean home, freshly washed sheets, 2 happy cats, and little Bear sleeping peacefully on his bed. He wasn't scared or confused, which is the biggest blessing Adam provided us. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone, but especially to someone who has the same anxieties about leaving their babies with someone they barely know. If Adam will have us, we plan to add him into our pack and his mom, Ruth, too! Adam, thank you for stepping in when we were in a complete bind, for taking such incredible care of Bear, Ellie, and Joe, and most importantly, for giving us the peace of mind to actually enjoy our trip knowing they were safe and loved. Ok, thank you for listening to my TED Talk, now go BOOK ADAM!
Blake was fantastic! He took great care of our dogs and our home while we were away. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and very well looked after. We would happily recommend Blake to anyone looking for a reliable house sitter / pet sitter, and we'd love to have him back again.
Lane was absolutely amazing and all 4 of our animals love her!! She stayed on top of 4 different feeding schedules, a bunch of medications (including eye drops, pills, and even a cat inhaler), and navigating our unique kitchen rules. The animals all warmed to her so quickly, even our shyer cats who came running up to her by the end of her stay. She sent the best updates with such cute pictures and all the important details which helped put my anxious pet mom self at ease. It made our trip so much better knowing our pets were being taken care of by someone who cares just as much as us. Already booking our next house sitting stay with her!
Julia was great with our dog and cat! We were able to fully enjoy our trip away knowing that the pets were taken care of. Julia sent pictures and video a couple of times every day, letting us know that everything was going well. We highly recommend Julia for pet sitting and look forward to working with her again.
Christina was awesome and such a lifesaver. I ended up needing a dog sitter to stay in my apartment for nearly a week very last minute & she was super communicative & trustworthy. She came by before to do a meet & greet & followed all my care instructions perfectly. Arleda enjoyed her time with her and I totally trusted her in my home and with my best girl. She sent photos and updates daily and honestly went above and beyond with loving on my girl. I will definitely book with her again!
Jason was so great! Super great with communication, got along with our dog Tiger right away, and was just so thorough through the entire stay. Our house was perfect when we came back, just couldn’t have asked for more! Great first dog sitting experience with rover :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Studio City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Studio City on Rover is $66.38 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 13,283 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Studio City. 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 Studio City 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 Studio City 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 Studio City 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 Studio City. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
