“We loved Macyn so much! She gave us such a comfort right from our first meet - knowing our pups would be in the best hands. She was responsive and great at helping us with anything we needed. We recommend her to everyone and cannot wait to book with her again in the future”

“Wow. That’s the best I could come up with, as a word to describe how awesome Brea took care of our dogs. She was constant with her updates of the dogs, sending multiple a day, especially when one of our dogs got sick. Not only that but Brea made sure to keep our small dogs on their schedule so that way there were no potty mishaps. She left the house better than when she was here and I would recommend her 1000x over. We will definitely be booking with her again, without a doubt.”

“Monica was very responsive and we were very satisfied with the care she provided. The house was nice and clean when we returned and Luna seemed as though we had never left. Would highly recommend.”


“We had a great experience with our sitter! She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pet was well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Her communication made the entire experience completely stress-free, and we were able to enjoy our trip without worrying. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“As always, Marnie kept my babies safe, healthy, and happy. It gives me such peace of mind to know she's here taking such good care of them. I feel incredibly grateful to have been able to relax and thoroughly enjoy my holiday because of Marnie's experience with and love for animals. Thanks again, Marnie the three of us love and appreciate you ❤️”

“Kylee loves and cares for your pet like they are her own 🖤 i got lots of updates and pictures and shelly warmed up to her quickly which doesn’t happen often so that was nice to know they both enjoyed their time together”

“Kailey watched 2 of our dogs at home for a long weekend. She is responsive, respectful, and kind. Kailey asked plenty of questions to make sure she could meet our expectations. House was kept tidy and Kailey was thoughtful to put the linens in the laundry room and clean the poop in the yard. I came home later than expected and Kailey offered to come back for a potty break. Girls seemed calm and content when I got home. Grateful for Kailey!”

About: I have always been a pet owner growing up. More recently, I have been a dog owner for 20+ years. However, my mom wanted company, so he's staying with my mom now. I miss seeing a dog so excited and having company at home. I feel like my place is empty. I usually take care of my friend's pets when they're out of town. So I thought why not pet sit for other people?! Spread the love!! I love dogs and cats alike! Each pet has their own personality, and it's fun to get to know them! For me, pets are always and will always be family. I'll be the favorite aunt for your pet. Book me and you know your dog will be with family! I work full-time, but my apartment is just 15 minutes from my office, so I’m able to swing by midday to let dogs out, feed them, and spend some quality time together. Pet care is a genuine part of my daily rhythm — not squeezed in around the edges. On evenings and weekends, I’m home and available for longer walks, playtime, and settling in together. My approach to pet care depends on the specific service, but the goal is always the same: keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and on a routine that feels familiar to them. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions closely for feeding, water, and any medications, then spend quality one-on-one time playing or cuddling before I head out. I always do a final walk-through to make sure everything is secure. For walks and runs, I match their pace and route to what suits them best, whether that means an energetic morning run or a relaxed neighborhood stroll, always keeping them leashed and close. If your pet stays overnight in my home, I treat them like part of the household — consistent feeding times, plenty of attention, and a comfortable space of their own, with anything hazardous kept out of reach. No matter the service, I send photo or video updates throughout, and I’m always just a message away if you have questions.
“Tori is by far the best dog sitter we have had! She sent so many updates throughout her stay and was ? responsive when we messaged her. It was so comforting to know that our Lola dog was getting the best care and lots of love while we were on vacation. Would highly recommend Tori to anyone!”

“Therese did a wonderful job taking care of our pups, even though she was not feeling well. She also tackled our outside critters too even having to deal with 1.3” of rain that came down while she was here. She went the extra mile to do everything we needed. Thanks so much Therese and River.com too.”

About: Since age 12, I’ve provided 11 years of loving pet sitting for dogs, cats, and horses. Farm-raised with 4 dogs (one ESA-trained), I comfortably watch up to 6 at once. Currently available weekends all day and weekdays after 4:30pm. In a few months I’ll add full weekday availability. As a new mom, I offer reliable, loving pet care. I provide attentive, personalized care for every type of dog, faithfully following each owner’s unique standards and routines so your pet feels right at home.

“Amber is, without question, the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. From the moment we met her, she was warm, kind, attentive, and incredibly professional. Her communication was outstanding, she was proactive, dependable, punctual, and paid such close attention to every detail. It was obvious from the start that she genuinely cared about our pets, and that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs and cats weren’t just cared for… they were loved. Amber is nurturing, patient, capable, and incredibly thoughtful. She followed every instruction perfectly, kept us updated with wonderful messages and photos, and consistently went above and beyond in ways we didn’t even expect. Honestly, my only hesitation in writing this review is that I selfishly want to keep her all to ourselves! But she absolutely deserves every bit of recognition. Anyone lucky enough to have Amber care for their pets can travel knowing they are in the very best hands. It’s rare to find someone who inspires this level of confidence and trust. We will be requesting Amber every single time we travel. She is truly one of a kind, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

About: I've been a devoted dog lover and caregiver since I was 14, accumulating over a decade of hands-on experience with our furry friends. From energetic daily walks to cozy overnight boarding, I've done it all. Whether it's a quick potty break, a long adventure-filled walk, or extended stays, I have the experience to ensure your pup receives the best care possible. My years of practice have taught me to understand and respond to each dog's unique needs, making every pet-sitting experience positive and tailored to your furry family member. I'm currently working remotely with flexible hours and have availability throughout the day all seven days. Since I take care of my own dog, I spend at least two hours outside a day and pet care is incorporated throughout my routine. My approach to pet care is tailored to each dog's unique needs, whether I'm caring for them in my home or theirs. I've worked with a wide range of dogs, from anxious and timid to energetic and even aggressive ones that needed special handling. In-home care: I maintain the dog's routine, following your instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. For anxious dogs, I provide a calm, reassuring presence. For high-energy pups, I ensure plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Home boarding: I create a safe, welcoming space in my home. For dogs needing special accommodations, like those who can't be around others, I provide separate, secure areas. Daily walks and visits: I adapt to each dog's pace and stamina, always attentive to their comfort level and adjusting activities as needed. Regardless of the service, my priority is the dog's well-being and happiness. I'm committed to providing loving, attentive care that respects each dog's individual personality and needs, drawing on my experience with diverse canine temperaments and behaviors.
“Paige was so incredible with our three big dogs, one of whom is reactive and another is a giant puppy. She was communicative and took great care of our home too! She sent lots of pictures and even left us a cute note about her time with the pups :)”

About: I have various experience with dogs and cats from veterinary clinics, volunteer work at a shelter, regular pet sitting opportunities, and from being a pet owner of two dogs and co-mom to a kitten. These experiences have allowed me to acknowledge when a fear free methods can be applied, what behaviors to monitor, and how to watch for heat exhaustion since living in a desert environment. I am also qualified to administer medications if your pet requires it. I work weekly at a veterinary clinic for dogs and cats. I take care of my own pets when home. I volunteer at a local animal shelter twice a week or three times a month. I make sure my pets have enrichment. This could be tossing a toy, exercise, practicing different training commands, or feeding a treat. I pick up after them, refill food and water bowls, give them a bath when necessary, will go for a drive to change environment, and lots of cuddles.

“First time using Rover and really lucked out with Will. He kept us apprised during the sit with updates and left the house nice and tidy. Our small senior dog really warmed up to him quickly! We returned to a happy dog - we would gladly utilize Will’s services again in the future. Thanks Will!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Tortilla Flat
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,937 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tortilla Flat. 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 Tortilla Flat 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 Tortilla Flat 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 Tortilla Flat 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.
