“Thank you Ella for taking care of Kenichi! She was available for the holidays and I thank her that she was able to extend her stay when we had medical emergency. Also, she cleaned the house and took care of Kenichi like her own. I wish to work with her again in the future!”
“Amy did an amazing job watching our babies while we were away! We felt great knowing our cats and dog were in such great hands! We definitely recommend! Thanks again for everything Amy!”
“Laila was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated throughout her stay, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from her updates and photos that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with our pup, and our dog looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We came home to a content dog and a great overall experience. We’d gladly book with Laila again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“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 !”
“I was very impressed with Eliana. She is an excellent caregiver for animals. Eliana followed through with all of the things she said would be done. She sent me daily texts and videos with my dog Romeo. I would definitely ask her to watch my dog again. As a first time rover.com customer, I can say with certainty that I will tell others about this app. Thank you.”
About: I have 4 dogs. I always stay behind on family vacations to watch them. I also make sure that they are fed on time, taking care of their medical needs and always put their needs before mine. I don't see dogs as pets but as part of the family. I work part-time at the best Western on Benicia. I at the moment only work afternoon/ evening shifts. So I always get up 5 am every day making sure I get my dogs needs fulfilled before mine. I have a lot of free time in the morning since I take online course at solano community college. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs were not socialized with other dogs in their puppy years. Because of that I always make sure of my surroundings at all times. I also understand breed bias as well since 1 of them is a Rottweiler german shepherd mixed. Again I always make sure that I treat dogs that I take care of as if they were mine.
“Katie is an exceptional pet sitter. We would 100 % recommend her. She asked good questions and listened well, taking the absolute best care of our dog Maeve. Kind hearted and knowledgeable, I wouldn’t hesitate to entrust any animal to her care. Well done Katie!”
“Kyle did a great job taking care of Luna and Yeti and my home for 11 days. We arrived home to pets that were not stressed and were happy to see us. The litter robot was clean and the dog’s bedding had been washed. Kyle sent pictures of the babies daily which was so appreciated. Will definitely call Kyle again!”
“Leyda was amazing! We have a 5 month old puppy and a 2 year old "puppy" and she snuggled and played with them while she was here. She stayed the night and kept me updated through out her visit with pics and videos. I will definitely will be using her again and again. She was very kind, and trustworthy with my pets and my home. ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“This was our first time ever having someone outside of our family watch our dogs, so we were a little nervous—but Diyanna was amazing! She kept us updated several times a day, had great communication, and was so sweet. Our dogs absolutely loved her! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“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.”
“Kristin is the best! She took such good care of our puppy while we were out of the country. He also needed medication and handled that with no problems. Highly recommend her and will definitely use Kristin again to watch our dog!”
“Ellen Jean really calmed my anxious pups! The house was well cared for and my mind was at ease. She was very responsive when I had questions and kept my boys on their routine.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Patricia, who stayed at my house for five days and took care of my eight-year-old mini doodle, Ruby. Patricia was highly communicative leading up to her stay, sent daily pictures of Ruby while I was on my trip, left the house spotless, and even helped out with our parakeets. When I met Patricia during our meet and greet, I could see that she is a truly lovely and kind person. I look forward to working with her again. Patricia is highly trustworthy, responsible, and most importantly took great care of Ruby, I cannot recommend her services highly enough!”
About: My own pup crossed the rainbow bridge not long ago, so I’m looking to pass on the love to any and all pups! She lived to 13 years old so senior dogs have a special place in my heart, but I also raised her from a puppy so I’m comfortable with all ages. I’m a stay-at-home wife with no children and no pets currently. My husband is in the Air Force so I’m looking to find ways to spend my time during the days. My schedule is fairly open! I have a fenced backyard with a good amount of space and live in a nice quiet neighborhood. I am willing to make as many accommodations as needed, and am really open to whatever is needed. I prefer to only host one household at a time, but will occasionally be open to overlapping bookings if only by a day or two, and all parties are comfortable with it. Please don’t be afraid to let me know your preferences as well.
“Dorothy is the best! The moment Dorothy walked in the door, she demonstrated a calm and professionalism that was comforting to us. Having someone in our home that is unknown to us is very uncomfortable. We never felt uncomfortable with Dorothy. Dorothy treated our peta with respect and was attentive to their needs. Dorothy is also a very respectful visitor, cleaning after herself and treating our home like her own. Dorothy also sent great pictures of the fur babies during her stay. We will be repeat customers. Thank you Dorothy!”
“Aileen is wonderful! She took care of my super high maintenance 15 year old small soul dog who needs meds twice a day and only wants to be hand fed. She was attentive and sent me texts which put me at ease. It is a big thing to trust a sitter when you have a special needs baby, and Aileen is the perfect person for the job. We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Wow! What an incredible sitter Hong was. This is the first time I have ever been away from my fur babies and not worried once. She was so communicative the entire time and I came back to happy dogs and a pristine house. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you again Hong. ❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Willota
We truly could not have asked for a better dog sitter or house sitter. She cared for our dogs and our home better than I ever could have imagined. From day one, she stayed in constant communication, sending frequent updates and photos that completely put our minds at ease. It was so clear how much love, attention, and care she gave our dogs... they were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her. Our home was immaculate when we returned. I can say without hesitation that I will never use another sitter as long as she’s around. Absolute gem of a human.
Kristin did an amazing job not only watching Harley but also made sure we returned to a spotless home. She definitely goes above and beyond to ensure that Harley felt safe, secure and comfortable. It’s apparent that Kristin knows the importance of maintaining a calm and caring environment for our senior pet. Thank you so much Kristin!
Emily was amazing with our large senior dog, and was super respectful of our home while we were away for the weekend. She was great about keeping us updated and sending pictures. It’s really wonderful to know someone so reliable, consistent, and caring is watching our fur baby - it made all the difference during our vacation to have that peace of mind we had with Emily. I could tell Cormac was healthy and happy as could be when we returned.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,989 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Willota. 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 Willota 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 Willota 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 Willota 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
