“Brittany was wonderful! Very accommodating to our schedule. Lucie did great and didn't seem to mind having a sitter two days in a row! :) She sent us pictures which was very nice and just added to the confidence we had that she was in great hands and being well cared for! If back in CSTAT, would definitely book with Brittany again and would highly recommend her to watch anyone's fur baby!”

“We are blown away by Nina and how well she cared for our pets! She was prompt when she came over to meet our fur babies and was very detailed oriented. This was our first time using Rover and have already booked Nina for our next two trips. She sent daily videos and updates, as well as did some brushing on the animals while we were gone. Our home was immaculate when we returned home from a busy day of travel and her personal touches are unparalleled. You should definitely book Nina, just not when I need her, lol.”

About: I’m an animal lover with 6 years of experience caring for pets and houses for friends and family. I understand that your pets are more than just animals—they’re part of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other unique pets, including providing meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, medication, and plenty of cuddles. I’m also happy to maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away so they can feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When house sitting, I’m respectful of your space and can help keep your home tidy and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to bring in mail, water plants, take out trash, and make sure everything is cared for! I currently work part-time as a housekeeper, scheduling my services around my client's individual needs on a first-come, first-served basis to ensure that every need is met especially the needs of your beloved pet! I take pride in providing dependable, and thorough care and I prioritize the highest quality of service possible! I provide high quality service that emphasizes the pet’s safety, comfort, emotional well-being, routine, and overall care while the owner is away. What my high-quality pet care service involves • Understanding each pet individually: Every animal has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs. I take time to learn the pet’s habits, likes and dislikes, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and behaviors rather than providing one-size-fits-all care. • Maintaining their normal routine: Pets generally feel more secure when their familiar routine is maintained. This includes feeding them at their usual times, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes or potty areas, providing walks or playtime, and maintaining their normal sleeping and daily schedule. • Providing companionship and attention: my quality care includes genuine interaction. Depending on the pet, that may mean playing, brushing, walking, giving affection, talking to them, or simply sitting with them. For pets that experience separation anxiety, calm companionship can be especially important. • Keeping the pet safe: As your pet’s sitter I prioritize creating a secure environment and preventing situations that could put the animal at risk. This includes checking doors and gates, being mindful of hazards, monitoring interactions with other animals, and following the owner's specific safety instructions. • Observing behavior and health: As your pet sitter I pay attention and inform you about any changes in appetite, drinking, bathroom habits, energy level, mood, mobility, or behavior. Recognizing that something is different can be extremely important to your pets health and well-being. • I ensure all care instructions are completed with qualityand care regarding food, treats, medications, exercise, allergies, behavioral concerns, or special routines. • Keeping your pet's environment clean is top priority! This includes cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste in the yard, washing food and water bowls, cleaning accidents, and keeping the areas where the pet spends time comfortable and sanitary. • Providing enrichment Pets need mental stimulation as well as basic physical care. Toys, interactive play, walks, scent exploration, routine exercises, and age-appropriate activities can help prevent boredom and reduce stress. • Respecting the owner's home I ensure to treat my client's home with respect and professionalism. This means being responsible with keys and access, keeping the home secure, cleaning up after the pet, and leaving the home in good condition. • I prioritize communicating consistently providing you with reassurance that your pets are safe and doing well. A high-quality and meaningful updates about your pets day and, photos or video updates. Communication is open and honest—if something unexpected happens. My high quality services ensure and prioritize that your pet is treated with patience, compassion, responsibility, and genuine care—not simply being checked on!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through my work as a pet bather and trainee, where I bathed, groomed, and safely handled dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I also have experience caring for my own dog and recently fostered a dog for a week. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, basic routines, and giving pets patience and attention. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on the day and service needed. I’m able to give pets consistent attention, playtime, exercise, feeding, and companionship rather than simply stopping by and leaving. I have experience caring for my own dog and fostering a dog for a week. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully and make sure pets are supervised, secure, and treated with patience and care.

About: Growing up in La Cañada Flintridge, my love for animals has been an integral part of my life since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated towards me, making it clear that caring for animals comes naturally to me. I believe dogs are truly a gift from above, sent to bring joy and laughter into our lives. Huntington Dog Beach is my happy place, where I can connect with these wonderful creatures and witness the pure happiness they bring. As a dedicated medical professional with over 25 years of experience in La Cañada Flintridge, I understand the importance of compassion and care. My my schedule is open. I dream of one day having a dog ranch where all furry friends are welcome, providing love and safety for those in need. With a genuine connection to animals that rivals human relationships, I'm excited to share my love and care with your beloved pets. Currently my schedule is open for pet care. I am able to care for pets during the day but I also can do overnights as well. I believe it’s most beneficial for your beloved pets to remain in their environment of their homes so that they can feel safe and secure.

About: Howdy! I’m a PhD student in medical entomology who brings a calm, detail-oriented approach to pet care. For the past three years, I’ve fostered dogs with medical needs, behavioral challenges, and senior pups who need a little extra patience and TLC. From medication schedules to enrichment and daily walks, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away 🥰 While my PhD keeps me busy, finding time to walk, play, and care for your pet is something I truly look forward to and see as a refreshing and rewarding part of my routine. My schedule allows for consistent morning and evening care, and I’m intentional about making time for walks, enrichment, and quality attention. My fish keep me company for now, so you can bet your dog will have my full attention! I’m intentional about building trust so your dog still feels at home while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little and have always had big dogs so im not afraid of them. I've pet sit for my friends and family many times and have had no issues at all even with their older dogs that need medicine at specific times or young puppies that are very acccident prone. Im a student but have found a lot of extra time on my hands that even my cat doesn't want to deal with. So im available for any job most weekdays. Im available after 3:30 Tuesdays and Thursdays for walks or playtime. And afternoons after 5 on Monday Wednesday and Fridays for any late night pet sitting. I have a fenced yard and a big living room with parks near me that are great for walks. For clients home im very adaptive and can keep pets occupied and cared for depending on the service.

“Carla was amazing! She is such a sweet person and I can tell that she really cares about doing a great job. I don’t leave Savana for long periods of time a lot and so I was a little apprehensive about getting a sitter but Carla eased all of my concerns. She was attentive to all of Savana’s quirks and she made sure that Savana was comfortable. I was so glad that Carla was able to sit for Savana and I will definitely use her again!”

I’ve had multiple jobs housesitting for multi animal houses and can’t wait to add your loved ones to my experience. I have no professional obligations currently. The only task I have throughout the day is to drop my partner off to work at 5 AM and pick him up at 3 PM. Open to all care needs. My love for animals makes me very detail oriented when it comes to care. I have cared for my dog through spinal issues and my cat through a urinary blockage.

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitehall

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 798 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitehall. 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 Whitehall 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 Whitehall 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Whitehall 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 Whitehall. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
