“We just finished our first pet sitting with Kerri and she was wonderful. Our shy dog took to her to her right away and she sent us several photos of him cuddling with her while we were gone. Her communication with us was excellent and she displayed great judgment in handling an unexpected situation that came up. We are very happy to have found her and look forward to working with her again.”
“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.”
About: My goal is to create an environment and relationship that makes your life easier and your pup happier. I’m loving, gentle, and patient with all pup ages! I’m available any day of the week. I just ask for a 2 day notice for booking and for canceling. For walks, preferably early morning or evenings (especially in hot days. I want your pup to enjoy their walk, and not be uncomfortable or in pain from the hot pavement) I appreciate your consideration! I adapt to what your puppy is used to. My goal is not to brake their routine. I would like to jump in where you need me to assist and maintain the routine you approve and would like to maintain. I’m here to help you both!
“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!”
“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!”

“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!”
“Ariel was great with McLovin. She asked wonderful questions before we left for our evening. She sent incredible photos and updates. We will definitely ask her for her help again soon!”
“Penny was wonderful! She was so sweet with our pups and they absolutely loved her. She sent us updates and photos so we could feel at ease while we were away. We will definitely be using her again in the future. ❤️”
“Margarita took such good care of my boy! She was super flexible and communicative setting up a meet and greet, which was nice since my schedule is kind of all over the place. She followed my instructions for my anxious boy to the t and sent great pictures and videos along the way. I had never booked with Margarita before but am definitely going to add her to my list of trusted people to watch my pup. Would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a good person to watch your pet while you're away! Thanks again, Margarita!”
“Angelea house sat with my Pug and indoor cat and did a great job. Uncharacteristically, my Pug had several accidents inside, and Angela was kind enough to clean up after him. She was diligent and kept to the walking and feed schedule. I will use her again.”
“Thank you so much Lisa for taking such good care of our fur babies. This was the first time using this app and we were very pleased. Lisa did an amazing job keeping us updated with super cute pictures and videos. Lisa was very respectful towards our home. We will definitely have Lisa watch our babies in the future.”
About: With 2 years of pet care experience, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members! I’m a responsible, attentive, and loving caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone around to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences and follow their owner’s instructions closely to ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is being treated with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own!

I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I can accommodate different schedules and routines. Your furry friend will receive lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away!

Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I prioritize regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of affection while respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries.

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was little :) Dogs, cats, chickens, quails, guinea pigs, and more! I’ve also volunteered at dog and cat shelters, which has really helped me understand different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m a calm, attentive, and gentle sitter who really enjoys spending time with animals. I pay close attention to little things, stick to each pet’s usual routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide cuddles, walks, playtime, or simply quiet companionship—whatever suits your pet best. I also send regular photo updates and stay in touch throughout the day for your peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely loving toward animals, I’d be happy to care for your pet 🤍 Feel free to reach out with any questions! I have plenty of time throughout the day to check in on pets, play with them, keep them company, and follow their usual routines. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give each pet the attention and calm presence they need :) I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets feel most comfortable and secure. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress and allows me to follow their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m a calm, respectful, and home-oriented person. I treat every home with care and attention, keep spaces clean and organized, and follow all house instructions closely. Whether it’s locking doors, respecting quiet hours, or handling keys and security systems responsibly, I take home safety seriously. I’m comfortable staying overnight when needed and make sure pets are never left feeling alone or unsettled. My goal is to create a steady, peaceful presence — someone your pet can trust and relax around, and someone you can feel confident welcoming into your home.
“Alex is an amazing sitter and house guest. She is experienced, communicative, attentive, friendly, and has a great energy that is needed to have someone stay in your home. She took fantastic care of our two cats so well that they didn’t miss a beat when we returned - no cold shoulders or disappearing acts because we left for a few days! Our gals like to hide around new people but they were out and about with Alex. Everything was clean and in its place when we returned. Just a lovely experience all around. Highly recommend, will book again!”
“Kathy is wonderful! She’s kind, friendly, and incredibly skilled and focus with our fur bebe, Pumpkin. He’s quite shy, and she takes her time to get to know him and build trust. We look forward to more doggo care with Kathy!”
About: Getting to pet a dog, whether on the job, at the park, or walking around my neighborhood, is always the highlight of my day! I’ve taken care of coworker’s and neighbor’s pets before and always enjoy the time I get to spend with them :) I also grew up in a family that always had dogs, so I learned the responsibilities of feeding and walking dogs at an early age, as well as teaching basic commands like sit, stay, and no tugging on the leash on walks! Our family dogs were primarily rescue dogs of unknown breed origin, as well as Bichon-Frisés , a dog breed I dearly love. I have the perfect temperament and patience for older dogs, but welcome doggies of all ages! I am most comfortable caring for small and medium sized dogs under 40 pounds, as those are the type of dogs I grew up around and have dogsat for previously. I’m able do drop-ins during the weekdays and housesit any day of the week! My general drop-in availability is Mondays - Thursdays, late mornings to evenings. While in your home, I will take the utmost care to leave it as I found it, if not a little bit better! I will also take copious notes on everything your pet need, where all pet items are stored in your home, and all emergency contact info. I am incredibly organized and love taking copious notes.
“Jade took such great care of my two senior dogs. We booked her for a weekend stay in our home and she was fantastic. She sent a lengthy update each evening with tons of pictures from the day! She made me feel super at ease leaving the pups in her care. Would absolutely book her again and recommend her!”

Keri is so sweet and down to earth. Ruby loved hanging with her outside all day while I was at work. I had an office meeting during lunch so I couldn't get home at lunch to let Ruby out so it was wonderful to have Keri there. I hope to work with her in the future. Thank you so much for you help Keri is great!
We used Michelle and Elizabeth (Lisa) for in home care for our puppy while we were traveling and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I was anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time and knew she needed more hands on care and attention since she’s a baby. We received pictures and updates throughout every day we were gone and our puppy had the time of her life! I highly recommend their services!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Tujunga is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $93 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.

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 Tujunga 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 Tujunga 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 Tujunga 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 Tujunga. 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.
