“We had a great experience with Jaquana taking care of Penny! She was very communicative, sent us pictures every day, and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Penny was very well cared for, and we would absolutely use her again!”
“My little guy does not warm up quickly but Morgan was great with him! She sent lots of pictures and videos for the week I was gone and I felt like he was well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend Morgan!”
“Good job at getting Lucas to trust you. He’s a Covid kitty. Like many pets who were only exposed to their owners during Covid, he does not trust easily. But you continued to work with him. Good work. Thanks for house sitting and feeding Lucas.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, including German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, and Shih Tzus. I currently have a Chihuahua of my own, so I understand how much our pets mean to us. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and will treat your dog like family while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m happy to communicate about your pet’s specific routine and needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure they have everything they need. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine.
“Anna was amazing! She was very communicative and I know my dog received lots of love while we were gone! I didn’t worry about him at all, and she took great care of our home too. I would absolutely recommend Anna for dog sitting!”
“Bennett was phenomenal. We have 3 kittens and needed someone to stay over to watch them. Incredibly responsive, very communicative, and even more so thoughtful, we were impressed by Bennett. Very willing to send several photos a day, tell you any updates as needed, and provide you the kind of peace of mind any pet owner wants to be able to enjoy their vacation without stressing over if their pets are okay.”
“Jose was a fantastic in-house sitter for my Labrador Retriever, she took to him immediately and he was a great communicator, sending plenty of updates and pics. He left my house neat as a pin, I will definitely utilize his services again!”
About: Hello, I’m Fern (Magdalen) I love animals, I find them to be the most pure little buddies. I have experience with leash pullers and dog reactive dogs. I have experience with cats with medical needs such as administering pills, ear drops, ointments and syringe feedings. I find that pets respond best when you speak to them like they’re human. I enjoy sticking to routine with pets and I ensure pups get plenty of stimulation! I work Mondays through Thursdays 7am-5:30pm. I work remotely Mondays and Wednesdays. I am available to house sit Fridays-Mondays. I am available for walks Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. Depending on distance, morning and midday walks are tricky unless I am house sitting. I pay attention to the animal’s needs. I tend to talk to the pet as if they were a person. I find animals respond well to it and it helps establish trust. I enjoy playing with both cats and dogs. Extra enrichment when the owner is away is key to help relieve pent up anxieties. I love long walks with dogs. I am good with routines and adhere closely to the guidelines set by the owner.
“My boys loved Kyle. He took such great care and gave us lots of updates and pics. He stayed at my apartment overnight with Otto and Groot and it was clean and perfect when we returned. Communication was great and he’s such a good energy I was comfortable with him in my home. Highly recommend. So glad we found him!!!!”
“We can’t say enough good things about Paula! We have a quite difficult corgi and she manages her well. She is responsive and sends pictures to put your mind at ease while you’re away. Great dog sitter!”
“Zoe is so awesome! Zoe recently stayed and cared for our furry boy in our home. He could be anxious when we go away but did so well with Zoe. We know it’s because Zoe showed him love, extra attention, and kept him calm especially over the July 4th holiday. Zoe also updated us regularly with texts and photos of their stay together. It melted our hearts! He looked so relaxed and happy. Zoe’s excellent communication meant so much and allowed us to feel comfort that he was in such great hands! Thank you Zoe!”
“Hannah is amazing! She is very communicative and put all of our crew at easy. She sends plenty of updates and pictures of our doofuses chilling and playing and even some funny face candids. Would 100% recommend for dogs AND cats...because we have plenty of both and she takes good care of them.”
About: I got my first dog at the age of 5 and my love for pets only grew from there. I've worked as a volunteer at a rescue as well as a professional Kennel Technician. I'm the person who answers "both" to the question "are you a dog or a cat person?" Unlike apartment complexes, I don't have any breed restrictions. In fact, I adore bully breeds and rescued my own pit mix. I'm also experienced with both puppies and kittens so I have no age restrictions either. I would be happy to set up a meet & greet prior to a booking. Please let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to answer them! I have open availability at the moment so I can spend as much time as you want with your pets and would love an excuse to leave my apartment. I am comfortable with every type of harness and leash and can crate your pet if necessary. I understand that all pets have boundaries and will respect those boundaries as I learn them. Your pet's trust is very important to me and I will work hard to earn it. I'm more than happy to set up a meet & greet to introduce myself to them.
About: As a proud dog owner and caregiver, I offer dependable, loving care with a personal touch. I have hands-on experience walking, feeding, and spending quality time with dogs of various breeds and sizes. Whether it's playtime, exercise, or sticking to a routine, I treat every dog with the same attention and care I give my own. Pet safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m able to accommodate different schedules, including daytime visits, walks, drop-ins, and extended stays. I’m dependable and enjoy being able to give pets the attention and companionship they need. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep their routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and always communicate if I notice anything unusual with their pet.
“I cannot say enough about Omeria!! I have a 4 yr old rescue who can be aggressive/protective out of fear and Omeria is the only person in all her years who gave her a chance and actually worked with her. She has so much compassion and she is SO professional in how she cared for our sweet baby. I have FINALLY found a person I can trust to keep our pup and I cannot wait to have her come back!! If you need a reliable, prompt, compassionate, trustworthy, hard working and honest dog sitter.. Look. No. Further.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs since I was a kid. I will play with your dog and give it lots of attention! I have a dog park at my apartment complex that I will take your dog to twice a day, as well as potty breaks every 3-4 hours. I have been around dogs all my life and was formerly a dog mom of two. I have no problem with tending to any special needs, including giving any medication. I will make sure that I dedicate at least and hour of play time for them to run around and get some exercise everyday. I am available to dog sit at any time! I am looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your dog the time and attention that they need. I’m never gone for more than three hours. I have raised all of my dogs to live long, healthy, safe lives and with do the same for you pup! I keep a tidy space, and keep a close eye on them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wilshire
Kevasha was wonderful with our dogs. We have 3 (2 large GSDs and 1 Chihuahua). She walked them, let them out and entertained them. She was wonderful with our house as well and we enjoyed having her watch the dogs. She shared pictures and updates throughout the day
Brittany was great! We have two dogs and we were out of the country for 9 nights and Brittany did a wonderful job with our dogs and our house. She was communicative, sent pics, and spent so much quality time with our dogs. She also took great care of our home and it was spotless when we returned :) We will definitely use her again if we take another trip. Highly recommend!
Jessica and Kristen took great care of our dog and our house while we were away on vacation for a week. They stayed in our home with our dog due to separation anxiety issues. They even changed our bed sheets which was a sweet gesture! We will be booking with them again soon. Thank you, again.
Jill was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home for three weeks and took excellent care of our dogs. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a house that was just as we left it. Jill was reliable, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would happily have her stay with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
Joe did an excellent job dogsitting Sky. He was very attentive and kept in contact with me the entire day. He also sent me photos throughout his stay and let me know how Sky was doing each day. He’s a very caring and loving dog sitter who will treat your pet as his own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Wilshire is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $66 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 4,735 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wilshire. 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 Wilshire 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 Wilshire 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 Wilshire 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.
