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 💜

Hannah is such a reliable and kind animal-lover, I feel 100% confidence leaving my four cats in her care, even if three of them are kittens and it's a bit of a rambunctious household at the moment. She was super communicative and quick to respond. She also left the house possibly cleaner than I had left it, so that was supremely appreciated after returning home from a busines trip. I recommend her wholeheartedly and hope to be able to book her again for future trips!

I’ve been remiss at leaving a review as Michelle and Lisa have watched our doggos many times; house sitting and drop ins, for our two Labrador retrievers and sometimes also our golden retriever grandpuppy. They are both exceptional in their attentiveness and thoughtfulness and all our doggos love them. I couldn’t ask for anything more when my dogs are in their care. I appreciate them beyond measure. We’re so lucky we found them on Rover.

Dylan was a dream dog sitter! He came right on time, took great care of the dog and had great respect for our home. He sent tons of pics and gave a daily update. He gave our elderly dog medicine and walked her daily. He was great!

About: I have been in the pet industry for over 20 years. I am a groomer, and have very high end clients. I do dog sitting for them for weeks at a time. All dogs are free to roam the house as long as they are house trained and get along with other dogs and a cat. Dogs are not caged or crated unless owner provided or requested. Our bedroom is large enough for 4-5 large dogs to sleep in on their own beds. All dogs eat at the same time everyday. Mornings around 7am, and afternoon around 5-530 pm. Water is always available. On hot days they will be enjoying 2 large dog pools to cool off in and play as long as possible. Pet care has been part of my daily routine since 2006. It's what I love and am passionate about. My life would be empty without dogs. Always home to keep an eye on them. I keep my clients up to date with daily pictures and updates of what their pet is up to.

Georgina was absolutely exceptional while caring for our dog, Kobe, during our 13-day trip. From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every way. She carefully administered Kobe’s medication, followed all of our instructions to the letter, and treated him with so much love and attention—it gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Beyond pet care, Georgina took incredible care of our home as well. She watered our plants, brought in the mail, and managed the garbage—everything was spotless and perfectly maintained when we returned. Her attention to detail is truly unmatched. What stood out most was her communication. She kept us consistently updated with messages and lots of photos, which made being away so much easier. We always felt in the loop and confident that everything was being handled beautifully. Georgina is responsible, thoughtful, and incredibly thorough. We feel so lucky to have found her and she will absolutely be our go-to sitter moving forward. Highly, highly recommend!

About: For the last 8+ years I have worked in dog kennels, boarding, training and shelter environments. I am focusing on gaining my trainer and/or handler certificate as well as animal CPR care. I am a professional dog walker so it's more than just a side gig for me; I take your dog's health, happiness and safety seriously. My visit to your pets will vary on their needs from just a potty break or feeding to an hour long hike. I am very detail oriented when it comes to communicating what services I have done from what meals or treats given, bowel movements and behavioral updates. I have experience with newborn puppies, elderly pups and reactive dogs. I may suggest a different walking harness or basic training methods if I feel it would be better for your pup; if I feel like I can't safely handle your dog I will do my best to help find a better fit. I am able to take up to 4 dogs in my car if all fit and get along. I love taking them out for hikes or parks but never off leash. I prefer visits no earlier than 8am or later than 6pm, but am willing to work with special requests. Currently serving the San Fernando Valley areas; Burbank, Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Alhambra, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, etc. I currently have a rather open schedule for house visits, potty breaks, play visits, hikes and walks. I can not house any pets in my home but am available for in home pet sittings. I live in Burbank so can go about 20 miles radius depending on the care request. I try to stick with your usual daily schedule to help ease your pet's stress while you're away. I stay with any training requirements and diet restrictions. The only times I leave the home are for other pet care needed around town. I understand how stressful it is finding a new pet care friend and I value your trust more than anything. (Yes I will bring in your mail and packages of course!) I communicate daily with updated photos and texts. My rates are posted due to my years of experience and changing up my own life schedule to accommodate for your needs. I also don't mind taking care of plants too!

About: From working at the animal shelter, to returning a lost dog home, I love helping creatures big and small. I’ve always had the drive to make the lives, of people and animals alike, better through offering my time, knowledge, experience and a helping hand. In the summer of 2024 I had the opportunity to work alongside trained professionals at the animal shelter and witness the consideration and care that goes into animal care-taking. I was able to also work with smaller kittens, bunnies, alongside dogs from an assortment of sizes and breeds. From 2018-2023 my grandmother lived with my family; we were the caregivers. Especially during covid, I stepped up to help with more responsibilities concerning my grandmother. I learned so much patience and also so much about what a blessing it is to have the ability to care for others. I so deeply appreciate the opportunities I have to share a little bit of life with creatures of every kind:) I currently have no job, however I am applying for part-time positions. Along with that I do pursue performing arts so I set aside time for that accordingly. Having 4 dogs and a cat at home only supports my motivation to care for more animals. I have a lot of availability through the summer and possibly the fall. Weekly it varies but I will communicate any and all time changes. I have 4 dogs that are all friendly, and I’d keep them separate from any of your fur-babies just to ensure a smooth time. Our cat has yet to interact with another cat, but she seldom approaches the dogs. We are well equipped with dry food and doggie supplies. If any dietary restrictions are necessary I will adhere. When in the house of a client, I always ask lots of questions and make a shared notes tab. I will also make a group chat if desired by the client. I tend to tidy up the environment given, and if there are desires to keep things completely unchanged I have no problem with that.

About: I've taken care of various kinds of dogs for over ten years. My family has always owned large dog breeds, and I have done sitting for medium, small-sized dogs, and puppies. I have experience with pets on a special diet, so I understand the importance of attention to detail when it comes to taking care of your pets. I have experience walking dogs up to 140 pounds, and I also own two cats and a dog of my own currently. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to help out with your pets! I'm available on weekdays and weekends, and am comfortable with mornings and evenings. I have a reliable source of transportation to reach your destination on time. I'm comfortable taking your dog on walks, playing in the yard with toys, or staying in and cuddling on the couch!

Boba and I adore Noemi. She is by far one of the best pet sitters out there, and our #1 choice. She’s extremely caring and attentive to Boba’s need—which says a lot because he is a special needs dog, follows instructions well, asks clarifying questions when she needs to, communicates regularly, and is overall a very pleasant, respectful, trustworthy person. I highly recommend Noemi.

If you’re reading this and considering booking Margarita to care for your dog I highly recommend!!! I was extremely nervous using rover (my first ever booking was with her) and for my little puppy but the second she walked into my apartment I felt at ease and how much she loved dogs! She sent me so many photos and videos. She followed all directions and she even got my puppy to use his grass pad which he is stubborn with :) she even cleaned up his toys so my house looked more organized when I got home. I feel lucky to have found her and will be booking again!

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats pretty much my whole life and have taken care of dogs for friends and family for years. I’m really comfortable around different types of dogs and understand how to read their behavior and approach them in a calm, respectful way. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and well looked after. I’ve always been around pets growing up, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my routine. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I regularly help friends and family by taking care of theirs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it and make it a consistent part of my daily and weekly schedule whenever the opportunity comes up. At the moment, I’m not able to host animals at my place of residence. I’m hoping that changes soon so I can incorporate pet care more into my daily routine, but for now I’m happy to provide care in your home.

Hannah is by far the best pet sitter we e hired to watch our fur babies!! She’s reliable, punctual, follows instructions, and is very responsible. More importantly she is wonderful with pets, and you can tell they love her too! From the moment she arrived both my dogs took an instant liking to her and just followed her all around the house with excitement. They didn’t even notice we left so that made us feel even more comfortable. Hannah is very responsive to texts and she sent us the cutest pics while we were away too every day. She also communicated the play times and walks daily so we knew our pets were getting proper exercise and attention. She was very trustworthy during her stay and when we came home everything was in the same order as we left. I will definitely rehire Hannah going forward and recommend her to anyone I know. I’m so glad we met her on Rover, we definitely lucked out!! I highly recommend booking Hannah if you want an exceptional pet sitter and the best experience for your pets!! She has the sweetest personality and very professional. Thank you Hannah!!!

Kristine was amazing with our boys. We came home to tired, happy pups, which told us they got plenty of playtime and attention. The house was also clean and tidy—honestly like she was never even here. She was communicative, prompt, and really easy to work with. We’d absolutely love to have her back again if she’s available the next time we need someone to watch our boys.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sunland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 13,120 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunland. 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 Sunland 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 Sunland 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 Sunland 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 Sunland. 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.
