“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”
“Marisa was a great fit taking care of our Rottweiler Kali. She was very confident initially meeting her and definitely gained full trust in a very short time period. We will definitely be using Marisa in the future. Thank you again Marisa.”
“Juliette was absolutely amazing! She's so kind and considerate of my animals! My dog has really bad separation anxiety and she really helped him through me leaving for the work day! She loved on my cats as well and treated them as her own! She was so good about potty breaks, feeding time, taking pictures, keeping me updated and just overall very responsive and just so kind! I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs their fur babies watched or checked in on! Absolutely loved having her stay with my babies and plan to utilize her services in the future!”
“Meghan clearly loves dogs and gave special care and attention to both of my needy dogs. She sent regular updates and I felt so comforted that they were safe and taken great care of!”
“Jasmine and Ian are fantastic! They are very professional and took great care of our pups. We appreciate all the special attention they gave our pups and didn’t worry at all while we were away knowing they were in good hands.”
“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’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own. I also live on a farm where I care for a variety of animals, which has given me hands-on experience understanding different personalities, temperaments, behaviors, and individual care needs. I know that no two animals are the same, and I take the time to understand what makes each one feel safe and comfortable. In addition to my hands-on animal experience, I have a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and knowledge of behavioral principles that I apply when working with dogs, including positive reinforcement, consistency, recognizing behavioral cues, and encouraging appropriate behaviors. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, as well as puppies and dogs who may need additional patience, structure, or reassurance. I understand how important it is to completely trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or prefers cuddles and a quiet companion, I’ll provide care based on their individual personality and routine—not a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m also happy to reinforce training routines you already use at home and carefully follow instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and daily care. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away, and I’ll keep you connected with regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I do my best to accommodate their normal feeding, walking, potty, playtime, and bedtime schedules. I’m available for both weekday and weekend care and will communicate clearly with you regarding scheduling and your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions before their stay. I provide a clean, comfortable and supervised environment with plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and downtime. I never assume two pets have the same needs and will always follow the care instructions you provide. I also believe communication builds trust, so you can expect regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care.
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the outstanding care Amanda provided to our two dogs, Sammy and Sully. From the moment we met, it was clear that they were in great hands. She went above and beyond to ensure that both dogs felt comfortable, happy, and loved while we were away. Daily updates, photos, and thoughtful communication gave us complete peace of mind. Sammy and Sully were clearly well taken care of and were so calm and content when we returned. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your pets and will treat them like their own, look no further. Highly recommend!”
“Steven did an absolutely fantastic job watching Cooper and our home. Cooper was able to keep his normal routine and get lots of walks and cuddles thanks to Steven's attentive care. Cooper was also on medication and Steven did a great job with that as well. We returned to a clean home and a happy dog! We highly recommend Steven as a responsible and loving pet care provider for your house and pet sitting needs.”
“We felt very comfortable having Erick at our house over the Thanksgiving holiday. He was very communicative and professional and he took excellent care of our two pups. We will definitely use him again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of cats since I was about 10 years old and dogs since I was about 13. Shortly after I moved out I adopted puppy then a kitten. It was definitely fun training my own puppy. I am currently a stay at home mom who also homeschools my kids. Our dogs are taken out for walks during the day and night. We love playing and cuddling with our cats and dogs throughout our school day. We crate our dogs when we are not home. If your pet is needed to be in a crate when you are not home, I can ensure that will happen.
“Laurie was amazing! She was very accommodating and sent photos of my fur babies while she watched them on my wedding day. She took them for walks and was very patient with them all. She was a real life saver and I would recommend her to any one in need of an amazing dog sitter. 🩷🐶”

Ako took care of my two babies once again. And we felt at ease knowing they were in caring hands. She kept me updated with their activities and even did more than what was required of her. We highly recommend her and would only use services whenever we are out of town. We trust her 100%! Thanks again Ako :)
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.

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 September 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 September 2026, there are 3,186 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
