“Ana is an EXCEPTIONAL pet sitter!!! The best ever! I can't say enough nice things about her. She Sent pictures of him and communicated with me on a daily basis, while on a 12 day cruise! She gave him a bath, medication, and hand fed him when he was reluctant To eat. She left my house sparkling - totally clean & my Yorkie looking super healthy and cute! She was an angel - took care of my little dog like he was her own. I know he was sad to see her leave - but we will Always call her in the future! Thank you Ana!!!🌺❤️ You are truly an amazing person!!”
“Alicia was the first sitter we used on Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better first impression. Our dog, Barnaby, can be a bit skittish around new people, but Alicia didn't have any problem getting him to warm up to her. We felt very at ease with Alicia watching our dog, and I'd definitely recommend her in the future.”
“100% the best! Took care of our two golden’s Sunny and Candy, and we will definitely book with them again. We received consistent updates and pictures. She was supportive in giving medication to Sunny who got a hot spot just a few days before our trip and we were so happy he was in good hands.”
About: Cared for cats and dogs of all activity levels, ages, and medical needs. I am experienced in administering medicines, following strict schedules, and making sure pets are well adjusted while their parents are out of town. I have both a cat and a dog at home and have owned pets all my life. I am passionate about pet care and making sure pets feel well adjusted. I like to spend as much time with pets as I can an make sure that they have plenty of time to get their energy out. Depending on their comfortability, I find it works best to be present in their space so they know someone is there for them while their parents are out of town. For non-overnights I check in at least twice a day and spend some time after feedings to keep them company.
“This is my first time using Rower and I’m so glad I did. Katie made this process so easy for me. My dog Lucy is 15 1/2 and have never stayed with anyone before. Katie was great with her so much so that I’m going to trust her with Lucy for 16 days while I’m on vacation. Katie send me pictures of Lucy while under her care and when I came back Lucy was happy.”
“Nadia was the best! She drove our pooch down to the vet hospital and picked her up after surgery. She made sure to come over the night before, though it wasn’t part of the contract, to make sure she knew where she was going and to meet our pooch. I’d use her anytime.”
“Junping was a wonderful house/dog-sitter. She was incredibly attentive and communicative. She always made sure Winston was taken care of and sent a ton of pictures to us! If she ever had a question, she would reach out and kept the house in immaculate shape. Would absolutely have her care for Winston again!!”
“So lucky to have found Kathy through Rover, she was an exceptional sitter for our two dogs. Our boys are leash reactive so we are always a little anxious to leave them under just anyone’s care, but with Kathy we’ve never felt more at ease. Great communicator and responsive, would definitely book her again if we can!”
“We’ve used Katie a few times now to watch our pup and we can’t say enough good things. She’s attentive, kind, a great communicator, and responsible. We are so happy we found Katie and can go on trips knowing our sweet girl is in good hands. Katie helps administer meds to our pup and is very intuitive with knowing what our dog needs. Thank you Katie for taking the best care of our girl!”
“So happy Amyra was able to watch my dogs again, especially over the holidays it’s hard to find a sitter. She was great with communication and sent multiple updates daily! Left the house clean and with the happiest dogs!”
“Robert is so very amenable. He was so helpful in a pinch and went ABOVE AND BEYOND. He is a great fit. My pup and cat loved him. He was right on schedule with all their needs and got them up and moving and staying healthy!”
“Amazing dog sitter! Very attentive and showed up early as requested. Belle made sure my Nova was doing well and informed me he might have a small stomach ache which I really appreciated. Belle is the best! Definitely rebooking in the future”
“Esther was awesome! Petsitting 2 cattle dogs at the last minute was challenging, but she worked with me and my pets and got them in a routine within a day! She kept me informed every step of the way and never hesitated to answer my texts. I've already asked her how to contact her for future pet sitting. Raider, Sloane and I are grateful to Esther for everything. Thank you! ♥️”
“Shhelby recently watched my dog when I was out of the country and did an amazing job. My dog was having tummy issues and Shhelby handled it so well, was very conscientious, and sent me thorough and frequent updates. She left my place cleaner than she found it and most importantly I could tell she really cared about my dog. Strongly recommend her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tustin
Dana was absolutely AMAZING!! We have a new 19-week old German Shepherd puppy and had to go out of town for a week. We were stressed about leaving her with someone but Dana was so great with both Venus (our puppy) and Cleo (our 11-year old senior cat). She helped alleviate our stress and we knew our babies were being well taken care of. She went above and beyond with our pets and treated them amazing! She fed Venus her special meals, helped maintain training, lots of walks and playtime. She also did amazing at administering our cat her morning and nighttime meds (inhaler + oral injections). She stayed in constant communication with us and sent us lots of adorable pics and videos. We are so thankful to Dana and her family who really treated our pets like their own! We are so happy and thankful to have found Dana and cannot wait to use her again. She is definitely our go-to-sitter from now on! I HIGHLY recommend you use Dana! She is the best!!
Joey was great! She was very communicative and sent pics of Mav and the cats everyday which was a nice surprise. She followed every step in their routine perfectly to keep them happy when I was gone! She even cleaned up a accident and the cat litter that spilled out.
Hayden was great! Hazel loved him and he followed all the instructions I had to handle hazel. Will definitely add him to my doggy sitters list. Hayden was also early and still offered to walk Hazel (which was not needed) thank you Hayden for being so nice and communicative
Rebecca is the BEST! We went on a trip overseas for a week and not a single time were we worried about our dog. She kept us updated everyday and showed him love like he was her own. Could not recommend more! I will never book with anyone else but her! 1000/10!🫶🏼
Paige took great care of our 2 boxers in our home. They are older but still playful, not great with other dogs, especially on the leash. They had no issues and were kept safe and happy. She took great care of the house and gave us updates and photos. Thanks for making our trip so much easier.
Ana took the absolute BEST care of our two special pups! We told her up front if they could just have a lovely snoozy time while we were gone with pets and treats, we'd be over the moon and Ana delivered exactly that. She listened to all of our guidance and was able to give us updates all the time. It was a 11/10 experience and look forward to her taking care of our boys when we need her again ❤️
Alicia was highly recommended from a friend and we were happy to find she had availability when we needed help! Alicia is wonderful with our 2 labs. This is her second time with them and it means so much to know we are leaving our babies in trusted hands. We love the multi-daily pics and updates. Thank you Alicia!
My wife and I booked Dalton and Mariela for overnight house sitting for two weeks. Our Boston Terrier is 1 year and 4 months old old land we've not spent one night away with him since we've been owned by him. Suffice to say we were nervous leaving him for our first time, especially being so long. Throughout our trip, they texted us, providing us pictures of him an keeping us up to date. We came back from our trip to a healthy and happy dog. In addition and equally as important, our house was left in the same clean condition as we left it in. I would not hesitate to utilize their services. I know I will be using them again when we take another trip. Thank you once again Dalton Mariela!
Patricia and Steven were great! Really easy to communicate with and coordinate. And they were able to help me out at the last minute. Steven came to my house to sit my dog Squid and he was super friendly. We had really great conversations during the handoffs both before and after the sitting. He was super punctual and texted me photos of Squid while he was watching him. I would 100% rebook them in the future if I needed help watching Squid again. Squid seemed to really like him too!
Mitchell was great with our dogs, and helped us out with our last-minute booking. He was timely and really cared for the dogs. He gave them an extra walk and lots of attention and wore them out in the best way. We will definitely call on Mitchell again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tustin on Rover is $64.06 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,465 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tustin. 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 Tustin 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 Tustin 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 Tustin 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 Tustin. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
