About: I live with an active Siberian Husky, so I’m very familiar with dogs who need more than a short loop around the block. I’m comfortable with strong walkers, high-energy dogs, and dogs who benefit from structure and consistency. I also grew up with a Cocker Spaniel and Springer Spaniel so my experience truly spans the gamut. I build my days around dogs and walking. I’m out with my own dog every day and keep a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of room for weekday walks. I intentionally keep my service area close to home so I can be dependable, unhurried, and consistent with the dogs I care for. Recurring weekday walks are especially welcome. I treat every dog and home with the same care I’d want for my own. I follow your routines closely, double-check doors, gates, leashes and harnesses before heading out, and never leave a dog unattended outside. I take time to learn each dog’s temperament, triggers and walking habits, and I’m thoughtful about interactions with other dogs and people. In your home, I respect your space, follow your instructions carefully, and keep communication clear, including photos and an update after every walk.
“Cocoa seemed very happy and in good spirits after Leslie stayed with her, so I would definitely hire her again. She gave frequent updates and kept the house very neat too.”
“Femke was the best! She clicked with Fernet immediately and from the photos she sent, he spent most of our trip on her lap :). Femke was incredibly communicative and made sure we had daily updates with photos and videos of thier adventures. Would definitely book again!”
“Jessica did a FANTASTIC job taking care of my 2 cats while I was away for 10 days. They can sometimes timid, but not at all with Jessica! She sent photos the entire time we were gone of them as happy as I’ve ever seen them and snuggling up with her. This is the second time I’ve had her house sit, and I will 100% be reaching out again!”
“Wow! Sonja was great at following routines (and she asks great questions!). Fennel was cared for and we received a daily photo and update. Sonja is detailed. She has such great energy. Our entire home was truly cared for. Thank you, Sonja!”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our 2 month old kitten over a weekend. She was extremely attentive, gave consistent updates & great pictures and great communication before and throughout. We were so grateful and will definitely have her back - thank you!!!”
“Monica was so great with our pup! We booked her last minute when I was going into labor and we are so lucky she was available and flexible when we had to stay longer at the hospital. Will absolutely book with Monica again!!”
“Muhammad watched our cat over a long weekend and it was clear the two of them had a wonderful time! He sent us lots of pictures and videos, which were really nice. I’ll definitely rebook in the future!”
“Gisselle is phenomenal! She takes wonderful care of Nala (and all of Nala’s extra needs), sends lots of great updates, and is also very conscientious and takes great care of the apartment. Thank you!”
“Logan was awesome with our dog, very patient and sent lots of photo updates! She even got him a toy! Not to mention Crue who is the sweetest friend and role model for any pup. Thank you Logan!”
“Amazing! Bandit was so relaxed when I got home, and the house was cleaner than I left it. Christine is professional, supremely experienced, and she loves dogs. She sent pictures of Bandit that I will keep forever!”
“I had a quick, unplanned trip to the East Coast and needed a house sitter for Willy. Lauren was prompt to respond when I reached out to her. My dog is a shy senior who takes meds and supplements with his meals. He's also quite active and requires a couple of long walks each day. Lauren took excellent care of Willy and even made him dinner when he ran out of food. It was comforting to know Willy was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Lauren’s services and plan to contact her for future trips.”
“Gillian was incredibly reliable/ on time, always punctual, and kept me updated throughout the day with photos and messages. My dog seemed so happy and relaxed in her care. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful person to trust with my furry!”
“The kitties were very calm when we returned, and we assume this is because they had great company in Cameron. Cameron stayed overnight for the weekend and we'd do it again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for more than 10 years. That includes puppies and kittens, senior pets, high-energy dogs, shy cats, an older deaf dog, and homes with several pets. I’m comfortable following medication and special-care routines, and I pay attention to the little things that help each pet feel at ease. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’ll stick to your instructions, keep you updated with photos and videos, and take good care of your home too. I work from home and my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m an early riser and walk around San Francisco a lot, so dog walks fit easily into my day. I can also stop by for meals, playtime, litter or potty breaks, medication, and some company. I’m available for overnight stays too. I follow the routine you leave for me and take care to keep pets safe and comfortable. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, food, and medication instructions, and I leave the home clean and tidy. I’ve cared for senior pets, an older deaf dog, and pets with special routines. If anything seems off, I’ll let you know right away. I also send regular photos and videos.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who's been around large dogs my entire life. At home, I have a sweet 3-year-old cat named Pepper, so I'm comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. My favorite pets are the ones who love to relax on the couch just as much as they enjoy getting outside for a walk or a game of fetch. Whether your dog is a playful retriever who can't get enough tennis balls or a couch potato who just wants company and cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I'm happy to match their energy—whether that's playtime, snuggles, or simply keeping them company. I'm proud to provide an LGBTQIA+ friendly, inclusive, and judgment-free experience where every pet parent is welcome. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide dependable care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, feedings, playtime, or overnight care, I'm happy to work around their routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I believe consistency is important, so I'll do my best to stick to your pet's normal schedule. I'm also comfortable administering routine medications and following any special care instructions to make sure your pet receives the attentive, personalized care they deserve. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. My biggest priority is making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you're apart. I'll follow your pet's routine closely, keep your home tidy and secure, and make sure they have everything they need—from fresh food and water to playtime, enrichment, and affection. I'm also comfortable administering routine medications and following detailed care instructions. One thing you can count on is lots of updates! As a cat mom to Pepper, I know my favorite part of having a sitter is receiving plenty of photos and messages. I'll send regular pictures and updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for you to feel like you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing.
About: I have taken care of and trained my dog (a little poodle) since she was a puppy. I also help friends take care of their dogs when needed. I have experience with small and big dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I enjoy playing with dogs and watching them. I work part time and my schedule is flexible now. I’m available on weekdays and weekends. I enjoy walking, so let me know if your dog needs someone to walk with them. I walk just one dog at a time, unless you have more than one dog. I will adjust the walking speed based on your dog’s needs. I’ll make sure to be on time for both the start and end of the walk.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vista Del Monte
Selena was so great with our mini aussie puppy! We really appreciated her clear love for dogs and how happy our pup was playing with her; she was very attentive to our instructions and tips. Also, we really enjoyed getting pics of their playtime and appreciated the detailed recap of their day. Highly recommend!
Rachel took great care of my cat and my apartment while I was away! She was very communicative, sending timely updates and great photos. My cat took to her immediately and I was so happy to know she was in great hands. I would definitely hire Rachel again in the future!
Liang is one of the best cat sitters I have ever had! She took really good care of both of my cats, followed all of their feeding and litter box instructions perfectly, and gave them plenty of love and cuddles. My cats absolutely loved her! She also kept the house extremely clean. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and genuinely caring cat sitter!
Logan did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Maggie, while we were away on vacation. Maggie was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we returned. Logan also took great care of our home—the house was neat, clean, and in great shape when we got back. We appreciated the dependable care and would be happy to have Logan stay with Maggie again in the future!
Jesse rescued us when we had to switch petsitters while on an international trip and I am so so grateful to him and happy to have found him! He took extra care of our dog to make sure he felt comfortable after switching sitters, and went above and beyond to put my mind at ease - he was super communicative especially given the last minute booking. Highly recommend booking with Jesse, your pets will be in good hands.
João was a fantastic dog sitter for my pup Nora. He is incredibly kind, professional, very easy to communicate with and responsive. He was nothing other than attentive, thoughtful and loving with my dog and treated my place like he would his own while he watched her over an extended holiday weekend. I could not recommend him more highly.
Linda was beyond excellent with our dog, Greer! She kept us updated the full week we were gone, did lots of training with Greer, and made sure our house was spotless when she left. We are so thankful we found Linda—leaving our dog is stressful but we didnt worry for a minute knowing she was with Linda.
Allie did an amazing job sitting for our two dogs. She was very patient with them because they take awhile to warm up to people. She sent frequent updates on how they were doing. We came home to an immaculate house and she picked up after the dogs in the yard. We couldn’t ask for a better petsitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Vista Del Monte
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vista Del Monte on Rover is $67.41 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,138 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vista Del Monte. 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 Vista Del Monte 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 Vista Del Monte 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 Vista Del Monte 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.

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.
