About: I have cared for all sorts of pets including dogs, cats and birds for at least 10 years (not including the time I spent caring for and helping to train my own dog growing up). I would periodically watch my grandmother’s two senior schnoodles as a teenager, have been asked over the years by family friends to house/petsit for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes and with different medication needs, and once lived with two cockatoos who I got to care for as well. I am currently working as a substitute teacher which means my schedule is very flexible and -with advanced notice- I can be available for longer periods during the day to dedicate plenty of time to your pet(s). Since I will be caring for your pets in your home, I do my absolute best to treat them and your space as I would my own. I know how much trust it takes to allow someone into your home with the things that mean the most to you and take that very seriously!

“Quinn was very responsive and easy to communicate with. He was also flexible in setting up a time to do a meet and greet before we left. The dogs were well taken care of and the house was in excellent shape upon our return. Quinn was very thoughtful and tidy and even started laundry for his bedding and towels before we got home.”

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, and even a rooster at one point! Ever since I can remember, animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have two sons of my own, and my goal is to care for your fur babies the way I would want someone to care for mine! I just finished working a summer in Alaska, and currently have no winter job lined up, so your fur baby will have all of my undivided attention, and of course they will be showered in love! I have plenty of free time to hangout with your fur baby, and will treat them as if they’re my own while in my care. My goal is for both you and your fur baby to feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m very attentive when it comes to body language, and always do my best to make sure the comfort of my client and or clients fur baby comes first.

About: Hello, I'm Michael, an experienced house sitter in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Though I'm native to NM, I've completed over 22 home-based sits just in the past 2 years around the western hemisphere; from Nashville to Seattle, Vancouver to Barcelona, Big Sky to Dublin, and more. I'm experienced, trustworthy, kind, compassionate, and zen. I provide a variety of services to ensure your home is secure and well-maintained while you're away. In addition to overnight home and pet care, my "drop-in" services include pet feeding, mail collection, plant care, snow clearing, and trash & recycling. I am experienced in administering medication, can do lite grooming care and bathing, and have cared for both older and younger pets alike. I also keep my head in emergencies and believe that honest, clear communication is key to resolving most issues efficiently. I am a freelancer by trade, working primarily digitally (which allows me the freedom to travel from time to time), so my schedule tends to be somewhat flexible. I do like to have some notice when planning care for pets, and clear (as possible) instructions when pet needs are more complex. I cannot care for pets in my home, however; I'm happy to travel to your home for drop-ins as often as you'd like. I prefer longer engagements as I feel that pets in general prefer people they know, and I don't enjoy causing them any unnecessary anxieties, so overnights are the types of gigs I commit to. That being said, I'm here to help YOU, so don't hesitate to let me know how I can be of service.

About: I've had large dogs since I was born, when I was young I remember going outside and feeding them with my mom and giving them treats and feeding them. Now I have two small dogs I've had for 10 years that I trained myself, they know pretty much every basic command plus some that are more advanced. I also groom them myself such as brushing and bathing. I walk my dogs so we can get out of the house and get fresh air. I am available full-time as I do occasional 30-60 minute drop-ins throughout the day, but I am never away from home longer than 2-4 hours. Can keep pets on routines depending on instructions. I have a fenced yard to let them out morning- night anytime they need. I have a fenced yard to let them out morning- night anytime they need. I can provide walks as well if instructed, there are walking trails and dog parks near my home.

“Dont really want to extole Laurie's work here because I want to keep her the best secret ever, but that wouldn't be fair. She's kind, smart, conscientious, flexible, my dogs LOVE her. She's great! The house was tidy and her communication was just right, not too much but enough to give me confidence that all was going well. I'm going to book her again any chance I get.”

About: Hi, my name is Sam. I am in the Albuquerque area and would be happy to help you with your pets. I have tons of experience with animals including volunteering for cat adoption days with PACA, rehoming abandoned animals, petsitting special needs animals, fostering, agility and show dog training, and behavioral training with dogs. I also have a passion for my fish hobby :) due to this app being a little odd with keeping a lot of our pay lets discuss on our own time a good solid plan ahead with your furry friend that way everyone is happy :) I am available in the afternoons up to the early evenings. However, I can make an exception for some early morning check-ins or walks. Just feel free to ask first! Because I work from home, I am more flexible when it comes to extended periods of pet-sitting as long as I have a quiet place to work. Whatever instructions and guidance I am given I am happy to respect and adhere to those rules when it comes to being in someone else's space or if they are coming to my house. In my own home, it is calm, quiet, with a gated area in the back patio with a garden. The animals are free to move about in the house. I do not have a backyard per se but the back patio is a decent size and secure for dogs to do their business and relax for a bit. I do not have animals of my own at the moment.

Sarah went above and beyond and I would definitely hire her again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Valencia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Valencia is $17 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $22 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 October 2026, there are 617 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Valencia. 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 Valencia 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 Valencia 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 Valencia 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 Valencia. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
