“Ana was absolutely incredible!!! I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the moment she started watching our dog, Pixie Dixie, we knew she genuinely cared for her like family. Her communication was outstanding the entire stay. She sent constant updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Every update showed how loved and comfortable Pixie was. Ana went above and beyond with Pixie with playing with her constantly, introducing new games, cuddling with her on the couch, and even sleeping beside her because Pixie wanted to be close to her. Seeing how attached Pixie became says everything about the kind of person Ana is. She also took phenomenal care of our home. Everything was spotless, organized, and exactly as we left it. By the end of the stay, Ana no longer felt like “just” a Rover sitter — she felt like family. We trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, communicative, and truly wonderful with animals. Pixie already misses her, and so do we!”
“Angelina was absolutely wonderful with my little dog, Peach. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in caring and trustworthy hands. She was kind, attentive, patient, and treated him with genuine love and affection. It’s not easy to leave your pet with someone else, but Angelina made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Angelina, for taking such great care of my little boy! ❤️”
“Alicia watched our two pups at our house and was fantastic! The pups were so well cared for and really happy! She communicated throughout and sent us lots of pics. Alicia also took amazing care of the house and left it in perfect condition! We will definitely utilize Alicia's services again! She is an excellent dog sitter!”
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.
“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! ♥️”

I am very respectful of the client’s home. I will obey their house rules. I will make sure to be thorough with any provided instructions and ask questions about things I am not sure about. I keep a clean and organized space.
“As always, we are leaving 5 stars because of how well our dogs were watched! Even when we left later than we had asked her to come in due to my partner’s work emergency, she was so patient.”
“Robert was absolutely amazing with our little autumn while we were on a cruise. It was our first time leaving our fur baby behind and she loved Robert so much. She had the best time and didn’t want him to leave. We would a million times recommend him to love your fur babies and we will definitely have him again!!!”
“Maria was able to come on short notice and sent daily photos of our pups. Our dogs seemed very comfortable with her, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy house-sitter”
“Jasmine is a great dog sitter! She watched our dogs for 8 days and did an awesome job. Communication was easy and consistent, and we really appreciated the regular updates and pictures. She made sure our dogs got daily walks and plenty of care and attention. We felt totally comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands and would definitely book Jasmine again. Thanks Jasmine!”
About: I have experience with dogs and cats as well as many different types of animals such as rodents, reptiles, and fish. I previously worked at a dog boarding facility so I have worked with many different breeds before. I currently have an 8 year old 50lb mutt whom I love with my whole heart. I would love to watch your dog and home while you are on vacation or just check in whenever you need! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. I am currently going to school fully online while still living at home. I want to fill up my free time caring for your pets as I am also unemployed at the moment. I cannot have your pets at my home but I am comfortable watching your pets at yours. I do have a dog of my own but she is able to stay at home with family while I care for your pets.
“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.”

“Donna and Mike were the answer to our prayers for our senior Chihuahua Capri. They were both loving and kind while watching her and sent updates each day, sometimes multiple times a day! Our Capri has health challenges and requires medicine throughout the day as well as help with feeding and mobility since she has a hard time seeing with cataracts. They were wonderful from drop-off to pick-up and gave Capri lots of reassurance and cuddle time. We would highly recommend using them as sitters for your fur babies. We will definitely book them again!”
About: I truly believe a dog is a best friend. I don’t have a yard, but I will drive to a dog park to make up for it. If you have an energetic dog, don’t hesitate to bring them with me because I will match its energy level. I’m playful and active, so I know your dog won’t be bored with me. My neighborhood is also very dog-friendly. I honestly love dogs so much. I’ve had such great experiences and always look forward to reconnecting with pets I’ve taken care of in the past. I would love for you to have a dog walker or dog nanny to rely on. I am a full-time college student in winter break, so I am available all week from 7am-3pm. I have weekends open, along with some holidays off. I am currently a full-time college student after leaving my full-time job. I have much more free time and honestly in need of extra cash. I enjoy playing and being with dogs so it's the best of both worlds. I am unable to have a pet, and that's why I treat every furry friend as my own. When taking care of a pet it’s always important for me to know where it’s going or what it’s doing. Dogs go into trash, they like to chew on random items that can be very harmful to them so I try to make sure they don’t endanger themselves under my supervision.
“Galina has been so communicative and helpful! Clay loved having her dogsit her!! She has been very responsible and I love working with her! Would definitely highly recommend :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tustin
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 ❤️
Joey did such a great job watching our dog and cat while we were out for 8 days! She was constantly in communication and sent pictures everyday. We felt relaxed and comfortable leaving them in her care. Came back to happy babies and a clean home. Totally recommend her to watch your pets.
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.
All I can say is WE LOVE SARAH ! She is an amazing pet and house sitter ! She sent us photos several times a day and kept us updated ! Our house was spotless when we got home too !! Totally reliable, responsible, and trustworthy ! The sweetest gal ! Will have her back for sure ! Thank you Sarah !!!!!!!

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.
