“Jaquan did an amazing job with our two frenchies and left the home cleaner than when we left, with two happy puppies. We will definitely reach out to him again for our needs.”
“Ori is fabulous! She kept us updated everyday with pictures of our boys and we felt so at ease knowing she was there at our home with them. Will absolutely be reaching out to her again!”
“Nicky was an absolute pleasure to work with, she was very responsive. Came to meet my girls before sitting for them. They were very happy and comfortable, which is a must for me. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation because I knew they were in good hands. There were even a few situations that came up, not due to her, but she handled it perfect even though she could not get a hold of me ( I was on a cruise ). Not only did she take good care of my dogs but also took good care of my house. She cleaned and did laundry/dishes. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Nicky !”
About: I have walked a friends dog for around 2 years. I also sat for them once last year. I also take care of my dog of 4 years. I am a free for almost the entire day,except on Sundays. The evening I like to keep clear just in case. This schedule might change once I get a job. I love walking dogs, especially in the mornings when it’s cool. This service is easy to take off an owners plate, when they need it.
About: I've taken care of dogs of all sizes and temperments for my whole life. I have a calm demeanor that helps them relax. I live in a house with a large fenced yard, I have a car with dog restraints, a vet office within walking distance, experience giving medications, and I'm a veteran who's good in a crisis. I am currently a student doing most of my work from home. I only accept a bookings if I'll be home and able to provide plenty of love and attention. I have lots of space, a car with dog restraints, a medium dog crate (for crate trained dogs up to 70-ish pounds) and plenty of toys. I also carry my own pet sitting insurance that goes beyond the Rover guarantee, for the mutual protection of sitter, owner and pet. Dogs will not be left outside unsupervised.
“Alexis was absolutely amazing! She was so loving and caring for my 4 month old pup. Sent multiple updates, many videos and I could tell Sonny was taken care of. I was able to be at peace knowing he was taken care of and loved while I was gone. I highly recommend Alexis and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
About: I absolutely love animals. I'd be doing this for free if I didn't have rent to pay! I have been dog sitting for friends and family forever and used to work with tiny kids at a school so I have lots of experience and energy to keep up! I am self-employed so I make my own schedule! I will always put your pet first when it comes to scheduling. I am a morning person so I'm up as early as 6am and as late at 11pm. I used to work with tiny little babies at an elementary school and I'd take care of your pet with the same amount of love and precaution!

About: I am currently a medical student with a pretty flexible schedule and deep love for all animals. I have owned cats my entire life and a couple dogs. I care greatly for the happiness of pets. They deserve nothing but love and comfort in their caregiving. A bond between pet and owner is very special and I know how hard it is to have obligations that take you away from them for any amount of time. It’s important to me that your pet receives the comfort, affection, and mental stimulation they need while they are waiting for you to come home. I am a lover of all dogs, big dogs, little dogs, young and old. I am very excited to get to know your dog by walking them, feeding them, and stopping by to take care of your dog if you are out of town. Puppies are no problem. I may not have as much experience working with dogs but I have not met a dog that did not like me and I am very friendly and excited to spend more time around dogs. I won't let you down! I have a deep love for cats as well. They are simply such a gift. I have much more experience in caring for cats. I have school 4 days a week from 2-4 hours a day. I have plenty of free time for loving on your sweet pets. I am willing and able to come to your home where your pet is most comfortable! I also have the ability to host them at my apartment where we have nearby walking paths and a dog park!
“Jessica is a true animal lover who puts so much care and attention into her work, treating your pets as if they were her own. She took care of my dog and two cats for almost a week while I was out of town and I got frequent updates and came home to very happy animals! It’s also clear in talking with her that she has a wide range of animal experience, not just dogs and cats. Highly recommend and grateful to have found someone who I know will take excellent care of my pets.”
About: I've loved cats and dogs all my life (more than people sometimes LOL) 💜 I've taken care of neighbors/family/friends pets while they are out and showered them with all the love and care as if they were my own. My heart is full whenever I am around animals and my goal is to help alleviate some stress all owners tend to get while on vacation/work trips etc (I know the feeling!). I cannot wait to meet your furry little pals! I currently work fully remote and spend my Mondays-Fridays at home. My time is best spent with a new friend (your pet!) and am happy and ready to treat them as one of my own. 💜 I am available for boarding M-F after 3pm and flexible on weekends. Being away from your pet can be anxiety ridden, (I know the feeling!) so I am open and honest with how I care for your pet and you can trust that your little pal will be safe and comfortable until you return🩵
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I have experience with all breeds large & small ranging from Pitbulls, German Shepards, chihuahuas & more. I worked as an executive assistant for over 4 years to a family where I took care of a variety of animals, from training puppies to putting on diapers for senior dogs. My responsibilities included everything from feeding, bathing, training, cleaning & much more. I am currently a full-time Pre-Med student working online trying to save money for medical school. I have a class on Monday from 5:30-6:45pm and the rest of the week I am available for dog care. I am very open to anything! Working as an executive assistant for a family with over 10 cats and several dogs, I was responsible for cleaning their litters, picking up after the nets, washing bowls, providing the dogs with their snacks or medicine and changing the diaper of the elderly dog. I am very respectful of the homes of others, especially the ones that I work in. I clean up after myself along with the fur babies and will treat it as if it were my own too with the upmost respect.
About: I am currently an animal care assistant at a pet hotel where my main task is walking and taking care of animals straying with us! I also have been a vet assistant for a little under a year now but have handled numerous animals in my time! I would feed, clean, walk, and bathe as well as administer medications, flea/tick, dewormer, vaccines, etc! I’ve also grown up with cats my whole life and help walk my friends and family’s dogs from time to time! I am currently a college student at UC Davis and am available all weekends, as well as Monday Wednesday and Friday 9am-4pm! Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available 11am- 2pm depending! I love snuggling and playing with all furry animals but know when boundaries are set! I am very attentive and will always be aware of mine and your animal’s surroundings

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vacaville
Ryan watched our 3 dogs and came to our Air B&B we were staying at. All of our dogs are rescues and come with there own little corks. Ryan has a very calm and pleasant personality and worked wonders with dogs. Without any reservation, I would have her sit my dogs again and again.
Sarah was wonderful when watching my senior cat, George. I was super nervous about leaving my cat alone for a few days but Sarah provided George with so much companionship and love. It made me feel so much better about going on my trip. And I know George appreciated the comfort with Sarah there. Thank you so much!
Would highly recommend using Daniel and Haruka for any dog sitting needs! They were so excellent during our 5 night house sitting providing daily updates and photos for us. They followed every recommendation for our dog, were easy to communicate with and even helped water my plants.
Leaving your fur family behind is always a bit stressful, but Grace made it completely worry-free. She has such a natural, kind energy that our three dogs picked up on immediately. Usually, when we return home from a trip, our pups are practically climbing over us in a frantic greeting. This time? They were so relaxed and content that I’m honestly convinced they were a little disappointed to see us walk through the door instead of her! It is such a gift to find a sitter who doesn't just "watch" your pets, but truly connects with them. Grace is kind, attentive, and clearly has a huge heart for animals. If you are looking for someone who will treat your dogs like her own, look no further. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Alexis was absolutely phenomenal. We have two dogs — one puppy and one senior dog on medication — and she handled both with total confidence and care. She sent updates three times a day (morning, afternoon, and night), each with photos and videos so we could actually see that everything matched what she was telling us. We never had to ask for information — she proactively told us when medications were given, when the dogs were fed, and what they were up to. That kind of communication is rare and made being away so much easier. She walked the dogs daily — sometimes multiple times a day depending on what they needed — played with them, gave them plenty of attention, and followed our instructions to a T. Any time she had a question, she asked — no guessing, no assumptions. Our house was spotless when we returned, and she even kept up with poop pickup in the yard. Both dogs were happy and well cared for. We will 100% be booking Alexis again without hesitation.
Aniyah was absolutely amazing with our puppy! I really can’t say enough good things. She gave us so much peace of mind during our first trip away from our little boy. He stayed with her for a week and was happy as can be. I received several updates including pictures and video every day. She was so communicative and I took so much comfort in knowing that he was well cared for and safe! We will definitely be using her service again. Your pup will be in great hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Vacaville is $49 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $121 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.
As of November 2026, there are 2,321 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vacaville. 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 Vacaville 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 Vacaville 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 Vacaville 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 Vacaville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
