“I had to reschedule my trip twice because of a tropical storm and Sara was extremely understanding and accommodating. Despite her anxious personality, my dog seems to have had a great time with Sara, she looks happy and relaxed. And Sara took great care of my house and treated it like hers. I would definitely book Sara again ☺️”
“Suzanne is truly an amazing dog sitter! She always goes above and beyond for my dog Chi Chi. She gives her the attention and love she needs when I go out of town and gives me total peace of mind. I will ALWAYS use Suzanne for Chi Chi!”
“Gosh, I can’t say enough positive things. I was very nervous about using Rover after a bizarre experience 7 years ago. I also have a lot of anxiety leaving my dog with anyone because she has a history of pancreatitis and the smallest thing can cause a flare up. Kat sent tons of pictures - pictures of the food, poop, playing, walks- all of which were very helpful at alleviating my worries and showing me that everything was ok, things were normal, Ziggy (my dog) was doing great. When I came home, I think Ziggy was actually disappointed I wasn’t Kat! 🤣 Definitely recommend Kat. She really went above and beyond 💜”
“Ahliyah was an amazing pet sitter! She was great with communication, sent lots of pictures and videos daily, and left my home clean and tidy. I felt very safe and secure leaving both of my pets in her care. I highly recommend booking Ahliyah!”
“Naomi was amazing! She sent lots of photos and videos while we were away. She followed instructions and gave updates along the way. I will book her again :) Sadie definitely made a new friend!”
“Emily was so wonderful! Very communicative and I'm super appreciative of her flexibility when I was booking her. My Tuna had a great time. Loved the photos and check-ins I received while I was away. Would love to book her again!”
“Kari was a dream! From the moment we met her, she was very calm and patient with our two anxious girls who are terrified of strangers. She took lots of photos and updated us during our three days away. The house was just as clean as we left it. We’re so happy to have had her and plan on hiring her in the future for sure. So kind and professional. ☺️🩷🩷”
“Emily was incredibly professional!!! I leave VERY early in the morning for work and she was here right on time. She made me feel very comfortable leaving my mags with her. Maggie doesn’t like other dogs and Emily did a great job keeping her away from other dogs while also ensuring she got the exercise she needed. Emily never left Maggie at all during the day because she me a she had separation anxiety! She spent 10 hours with her and sent me updates throughout the day. We have already booked Emily again because she was so awesome!!!”
About: Hey there! I'm Mikki and I have been caring for animals all of my life (professionally for a few years) I have experience with all ages and all sizes, and even quite the array of species and breeds. I am comfortable with most medication administration and handling animals with special needs. I would love to be a helpful assistant to you and your fuzzy (or scaly!) friends! *A little about me! I am from New Orleans originally and recently moved to California a after working in Missouri for a few years. I am hoping Rover will connect me with more wonderful clients and new furry friends! I am a private swim instructor so during Fall and Winter my schedule is incredibly open and flexible. I am usually available last minute and most days of the week, please feel free to message me! I am comfortable with multiple animals, planning activities for your furbabies, and cleaning up pet messes. Every home and pet is different so communication is a must. I can travel to you, take your furry friends for parks or appointments, and do house stays. *I currently am not available for boarding in my own home.
“Chelsea was amazing. Her ability to handle our large and various number for animals with ease was the perfect fit, she even made them special enrichment treats! We came home to a happy crew. Thanks again!!”
“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!”
“The pups loved her. They are rowdy and fun and active and mischievous but she handled them like a champ. They were happy and active and loved her company. We really appreciated her taking great care of our guys and gal. We could not believe the pictures of our Audrey who is so shy rolling around on the grass and having a ball.”
About: I provide personalized attention for each dog, enrichment activities that give mental stimulation through play, dog-friendly outings, and of course safety always comes first! :) I’m an actor looking for part time work. I sometimes have weeks off when I’m preparing for my next job. Working with animals felt like the right job for me. I always respect your home and I know safety is very important when inviting a stranger in to take care of a pet as they are family. My goal is to ensure trust!
“wow! what can i say other than thank god for Jaislyn. We had the worst travel day with our flights getting constantly delayed. Jaislyn was so patient with me and was able to extend her stay another night to watch the dogs. The dogs were so happy to have her and will def be using her again”
“Genuinely the BEST. Monika was more than communicative, sweet, and took the best care of my baby. She sent check-in photos all throughout the day and gave me updates here and there. I will forever be booking her!! Thank you Monika !!”
About: I have been the go-to pet sitter for my friends, families, and neighbors growing up. I worked at a doggy daycare during the summers and home baked dog treats in my spare time. Now I find my days working from home incomplete without a furry friend! I am great with any breed, size, and energy. Excited to give you peace of mind and your pet all the care and attention they need! I currently work from home. My meetings usually happen in the mid morning / afternoon between 10 and 2pm but I have a very flexible schedule. I am very attentive to the needs of the animals I care for. Most of the pets I have taken care of have some degree of separation anxiety so I have gotten accustomed to finding ways to soothe their anxiety weather it’s putting a show on for them, pets and cuddles, or lots of playtime! If your furry friend is shy or timid, no worries! I will let them come to me and treat them with respect and patience.
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Betsy! She is incredibly communicative and even sent plenty of pics of our 2 lovable mutts while we were away for three days. We are beyond grateful to have found Betsy.”
“I know I can depend on DeShaude for timely, professional, and gentle care of my pup. So thankful to have connected with him here on Rover. He gets my highest recommendation!”

Maizy was SO wonderful with our senior (but still spry!) dog Sadie and our two teenage cats! I never worried once about my animals or my home while I was on vacation and the animals absolutely adored them. Maizy handled everything from walks, feeding, play time and light medical care for our senior doggie— all while house sitting for us (getting mail, etc.) I am so beyond grateful and satisfied with the care they gave to our animals. Maizy is truly so respectful, caring and supportive. I would recommend them a thousand times over and would definitely reach back out for babysitting in the future.
Hayley did a great job with my two big fluffy dogs! It was the first time I have gone away in four years because I didn't have someone I was comfortable with watching my dogs Beau and Malibu. It was the first time I have used Rover, and I was happy I have found someone who I can trust with my pups. She was very reliable and communicated with me well with texts and pics. I look forward to having Hayley help out again in the future!
Sophia went above and beyond caring for our senior pup while we were away for an extended trip. She sent frequent updates and was able to make decisions for our pup’s care that were thoughtful and improved her condition. We came home to a happy and healthy dog and would book with Sophia again in a heartbeat!
Emily is a fantastic dog sitter, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She stayed at my home for 3 days and took care of my two rambunctious dogs. She was professional, conscientious, responsible, and incredibly communicative throughout her stay, always sending thoughtful updates and pictures that gave me peace of mind. She was punctual, attentive, and clearly took excellent care of my dogs, while also being very respectful of my home and leaving it even cleaner than she found it! I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable dog sitter to care for their pets and home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Studio City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Studio City is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $95 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 13,340 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Studio City. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
