“This was my first time utilizing Rover after an emergency pet-sitting situation came up. We have a 1 year old pup with very limited exposure to other people. Emily's reviews are what caught my eye and she delivered. She was responsive, professional, and communicative if something caught her eye out of the ordinary with the pup. SUPER polite and took excellent care of the house while we were gone for 2 days/nights! Highly highly recommend. I'm very appreciative of her and will DEFINITELY reach out to her again!”
About: If you need to know your loyal companion is getting some extra attention and love, I would like to help you find some comfort with that. I will send you pictures and videos so you can know how our time was spent, and hopefully gain your trust in our new found friendship that helps us get through the long days at work. I’m available most days as I am self employed and fairly flexible! Sundays after 1pm~Monday through Thursday after 9am, with some alternating weekends open due to my schedule of events needed worked. I can usually be flexible with a lot of my day. I have a female Malti~Poo who I watch for my Son while he works and I believe she would enjoy the canine~ship! I could also crate if that’s the most important and appropriate way you would want to have your best bud feel safe and comfortable. I’m open to all of the best ways to help you feel like you are making them happy when you need to be at work or on vacation or just need to having some self care time. Open to suggestions
“Marisa stayed with our 2 dogs for a long weekend. She sent many pictures and videos along with updates throughout. It’s always nice to feel like your dogs are being loved and cared for while away and I definitely felt that way with Marisa. One of the best sitters we’ve had on Rover. Would definitely book again.”
“Jasmine is truly an amazing person. She cared for Snickers (our dog) for a week and spoiled her like crazy. I loved all the pictures she sent to us while we were gone, it sure made our day. I will use her for sure in the future”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Madison was amazing and so easy to work with. She took care of my two cats and dog over the weekend, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the weekend, which was so reassuring. It really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future”
“Raquel was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Gracie and Rowdy! From the start, her communication was excellent—she kept us updated regularly and sent lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is incredibly sweet and clearly has a natural connection with animals. She bonded with both dogs right away and took the time to really understand their individual personalities and little quirks. It was obvious they felt comfortable and cared for in her presence. One of our dogs was dealing with some pretty bad allergies during her stay, and Raquel truly went above and beyond to keep him comfortable. She was attentive, thoughtful, and kept us informed every step of the way, which we appreciated so much. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would hire her again and again without hesitation. Highly recommend Raquel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dedicated!”

About: I am currently home full-time while homeschooling my youngest child who is now in his teens. We ADORE all animals! Our schedule is extremely flexible, which allows us to work with whatever schedule needs you have. I have a huge heart and could not live without animals in my life. I am very active and look forward to the opportunity to walk, play and love on your pets! For the past 40+ years I have owned, fostered and cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, horses and more. I recently lost my Great Dane after a decade of getting to love him. He had DCM since he was a puppy so I have extensive knowledge of caring for that, giant breed needs and know how to track and administer many medications. Being a stay at home mom I've often thought about walking and caring for other animals while they're humans are away at work or vacay! I recently discovered Rover and know this is a perfect fit for me! I am very patient and have experience with all areas of pet care from walking to medication dosing and everything in between! I am currently home full-time while homeschooling my youngest child who is now in his teens. Our schedule is extremely flexible, which allows us to work with whatever schedule needs you have. I have a very large, completely fenced in yard with a locked gate. We are taking a break from pet ownership and would love to open our home to care for your animals. I have experience caring for dogs and other household pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, long or shorter walks, cuddles on the couch, or sticking to their usual routine, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requirements to ensure your pet feels happy and secure.
“Another worry-free vacation thanks to Amanda! So professional and our dogs and cat absolutely love her. Amanda goes above and beyond. Due to a storm, we had to extend our trip but Amanda helped tp take away the stress with her flexibility.”
“Caleb and Sara were excellent with our pups Sunni and Cali! They sent me daily pictures and texts letting me know that things were going well at home. I felt reassured throughout my time on vacation. They took out our trash barrels and brought them back in and our house was left in the condition that I left it in. I would highly recommend Caleb and Sara! Thank you Rover, Caleb and Sara!”
“Melia took care of our pup while I was in town visiting my parents. She was kind, respectful, and very good with our dog, Hazel. She sent us updates and photos as well! 10/10 would recommend. She was very helpful and kind.”
“Anthony was the best! He was incredibly communicative and responsive both before the stay and during. He took great care of our pups and sent photo updates regularly. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Temecula Ranchos
Marissa was an absolute pro while taking care of our fur babies! She paid close attention to each pet’s individual needs while keeping everyone on a regular schedule. Marissa’s kind and gentle nature was exactly what we were looking for when having someone in our home caring for our pets. Her communication was excellent with frequent updates and did not hesitate to ask us questions. She will be our immediate go-to for our next trip.
Great communication, I could not have asked for a better sitter, she took our dogs out daily and provided daily updates on how they were doing, if anything didn’t make sense on their needs she asked and confirmed. Thank you so much for your help while we were away. Will for sure be a return customer!
Martin did a great job house-sitting and caring for our puppy while we were away for 12 nights. He was extremely communicative and responsive throughout the entire stay. He showed up when needed, checked in periodically, and was attentive whenever questions came up. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for puppy gave us a lot of peace of mind. Martin was professional, reliable, and easy to work with from start to finish. We felt comfortable trusting him with both our home and our pup, and he delivered exactly what he promised. We appreciated your care, Martin, and would trust you with our puppy again!
Brandie was outstanding! Truly went above and beyond to make sure our boys were well loved and taken care of while we were away, which made us feel so much better about leaving. She was so kind, respectful, and communicative. It’s obvious that she really cares for animals and wants them to feel safe and happy while in her care. I can’t thank Brandie enough and our dogs will be so happy to see her again!
We found our pet sitter for overnights stays at our home - YAY! Amy made our vacation stress-free with updates and photos of our 2 dogs. Proactively asked questions, and followed our instructions for daily care. When you can't (or don't want to - haha) take them with you, book Amy to look after them with plenty of love and attention.
We have a 6 month old pup and two senior dogs, so it was important for us to find someone who would spend the time with them while we are gone. Kathleen did a wonderful job of taking care of our 3 pups! She spent a lot of time each time she came. We know our pups love her. She sent us an update at the end of the day which was great. We already have her booked for an upcoming extended trip and we know they are in good hands 😊
She was amazing and very helpful when we went on vacation. She was even a life saver when we got stuck on the east coast due to the storms and stayed with our pets till we got home. My family and I def recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and she will take care of and love your animals as if they were her own. 5 stars out of 5 stars for sure if I could go higher in the ratings. Thank you again Savannah for all your help!
First time using Rover and was a tad worried. Our dogs are very important to us and have only been looked after by people we know. Katie had a meet and greet and the dogs loved her. We didn’t have to complicated of instructions and everything was done perfectly. You couldn’t ask for a better person to look after our house and fur babies!!!!
Absolutely stellar. Jasmine and Ian took incredible care of our home and animals while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for better humans. The house was spotless, the animals were clearly loved on and happy, and communication was rock solid the whole time. Zero stress, total trust. 11/10 amazing! We would have them back in a heartbeat and recommend them without hesitation.
Michael stayed over at our house for 7 nights, taking care of our 2 Boston Terriers. We've never had anyone watch them this long! Michael made sure to send photos and give us updates. Sounds like they behaved! Will definitely ask him to care for them again when needed. Thanks Michael!

FAQs for House Sitting - Temecula Ranchos
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Temecula Ranchos on Rover is $42.8 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 3,240 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Temecula Ranchos. 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 Temecula Ranchos 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 Temecula Ranchos 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 Temecula Ranchos 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 99% 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.
