About: I’ve cared for energetic puppies and senior pets, handling feeding, walks, routines, basic training, playtime, and extra patience while learning each pet’s unique personality. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide dependable pet care, walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the week and on weekends. I treat every pet and home with the utmost respect and genuine care. I carefully follow your instructions, lovingly supervise your pets, keep their routines consistent, and always keep you updated with their well-being.
“Lily was an amazing house sitter and took such great care of our dog Marley! She sent daily updates with photos and we knew Marley was well exercised with daily walks and given lots of love. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. I highly recommend Lily and will definitely hire her again. Thank you Lily!!”

“Maci took great care of my sweet girl. She provided regular updates and photos and I feel my dog was well taken care of. I wound totally recommend Maci as a sitter. Thank you!”

“We were so lucky to have found Emily. Our pup, Junie, takes a long time to warm up to new people and it takes a while to earn her trust. Emily was endlessly patient in the drop-ins we had her do before having her stay with Junie for a week. In addition to being a kind and calm person, she knows a lot about being around a reactive dog and earning their trust. We felt totally at ease with Junie in Emily’s care and we loved how Emily put together a shared album to see how Junie was doing throughout the week.”

“Isabella did a fabulous job taking care of my fur babies! She gave me regular check ins about how they were doing when while we were away and we came home to a clean home and happy pets! A Chewy shipment arrived and she even put all the contents away for us! She did a great job and we will definitely call her back again!”

“Jennifer was professional and provided updates every day while we were away. Our 3 dogs played their hearts out and were taken care of the way we wanted. Jennifer was reliable and gave us the peace of mind we needed!”

“Claudia was wonderful! Our pup is always a little nervous with new people but by day 2 she was snuggled up with Claudia. She sent frequent photos and updates, was great at keeping Kaya on her regular schedule, helped out with other household tasks and left the house clean. I appreciate knowing that Kaya is being well taken care of because it allows me to enjoy my vacation! Kaya will be looking forward to her next stay with Claudia.”

“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. I was a little nervous at first, but Jalen made the entire process easy and stress-free. He was professional, reliable, and showed genuine care for my puppy. I felt completely comfortable knowing my Oli was in good hands. I am beyond happy with the service Jalen provided and will definitely be booking with him again.”


“We are so grateful for you! We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful, kind, and attentive sitter. Christina took care our our new rescue dog Raya. She was shy at first, so Christina was patient and loving! We look forward to having you come over again next time. Thanks again!”

About: Hi, I’m Melissa – A Lifelong Animal Lover with a Personal Touch Growing up with animals taught me early on how to understand and care for pets with love, patience, and respect. Over the years, I’ve rescued, trained, and nurtured countless fur babies. I treat your pets like family because that’s what they deserve. We specialize in providing one on one attention by only hosting one dog at a time (or siblings from the same home), so your pet gets a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and happy. We believe in positive reinforcement, mental stimulation, and physical activity especially with the beach nearby for fun walks and playtime. I also bake healthy homemade treats and often add a little pet spa love for extra pampering. Your pet may even learn a new trick or two! You can get a feel for who we are by checking out our journey on TikTok at #lolasdoggycare We’re here to love and care for your fur baby just like you would maybe even a little extra. I have a small business from home, so the flexibility is there. I make pet products as well as homemade products so I set my own hours. I treat all the fur babies as if they were my own child or pet. I follow their schedule and give them my undivided attention and do lots of playing! We go get our walks or smelly’s. 🐶
“This was our first experience using an in-home pet sitter. We’re truly blessed to have found Jewels. She’s extremely professional, friendly, caring, and attentive to all of Guinness’ & Jimmi’s specific routines and stringent medication regimen. It was such a relief to know our senior dogs were safe, happy, and comfortable in their own environment rather than being stressed in a kennel. We returned to relaxed pets and an immaculate house. We couldn't be more grateful for the peace of mind she provided. We will absolutely be booking with Jewels again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving in-home pet sitter!”

About: I’ve been petsitting/housesitting for 8 years in San Diego CA and when I travel for petsitting. My experience with animals ranges from a wide variety of chickens, goats, pigs, a pet cow, horses, lizards, snakes and turtles as well as; cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. A note for boarding and doggy day care; as I do not have any other pets at home I am able to accommodate dogs that have not been fixed as shown on my profile, however there would be an additional charge as I would treat it as a buy out as I can only take on pets from the same family when one has not been fixed and would be unable to accept other doggy day care or boarding requests. I am available most weekdays for drop ins and walks; with limited weekend availability depending on the week. If my schedule shows I am available through the weekend, then I am! For dog day care or boarding I am the primary caretaker but there are two extra sets of hands available. I currently working from home during this part of the year and have a flexible schedule to accommodate! We have a fully fenced in yard. If your dog is comfortable with it and my schedule allows, I’d love to take them out with me around town. I live walking distance to a shopping center and a few parks and dog parks. Let me know what works best for your furbaby . Safety is very important to me as well as keeping the animals safe. I expect that all dogs and cats I care for to be non aggressive and properly trained to be safe to all in public. If they are not I require that it be disclosed in full and discussed with me prior to the sit, drop in, or walking; I am familiar with and can accommodate almost all behaviors but I do require it to be disclosed before proceeding. My priority is the comfort of your pet within their environment as well as the safety of all within that environment including your pet. If there are any quirks or triggers that your pets exhibit it is expected that they be disclosed when booking a walk, drop in or house sit as they can be accommodated if they are disclosed before the walk/visit. Please disclose if your cat is a frequent scratcher or biter, or if you dog has a rage/bite history for the safety of all parties.
About: I have diverse experience taking care of dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, birds, and chinchillas. All animals are welcome and will receive my full attention and care. I offer weekdays, weekends, and holiday availability. I work from home so pets can expect to receive my full attention if needed during the day. I prioritize safety, trust and a familiar environment. Your pet will receive expert care, always in an stress-free experience and your peace of mind at home.
About: I’ve been handling dogs for 15 years — family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with walks, feeding, house checks, and daily routines. I’m comfortable with energetic pups that need structure pullers, and seniors that need extra patience. I stick to your instructions, send photo updates, and treat every dog like they’re mine. Hospitality background means I’m reliable, on time, and good at following a plan. The reason I started on Rover was that I lost my best paw friend this year, and in return I want to help you & the community with yours when you need it the most. I work in restaurant management in San Diego, so my availability is strongest on weekday mornings and early afternoons, plus select evenings and weekends depending on the week. Drop-ins, walks, and house sitting work well around that. I’ll confirm exact windows before you book and keep the same routine every visit so your pet isn’t guessing. I care for pets in your home so their space, crate, feeding setup, and rules stay the same. Doors stay locked, gates stay as you left them, and I follow your instructions on walks, meds, and who they can meet. You’ll get photo updates during the visit. If your dog is crate-trained I’ll use it; if not, I won’t force it.

“Stephanie has now watched our pup a couple times and always does a great job! She takes good care of him and our home! Definitely recommend her, and it is always such a relief to know our pup is being taken good care of!”

“Finzel took great care of our home, our cat, and our dog while we were out of town for over a week. She had excellent communication and we appreciated the updates and pictures she sent each day. Finzel was very flexible when there was an issue with the A/C and we had to send a repair person to the house. It was wonderful to come home to happy pets and a clean house! We would absolutely hire Finzel the next time we go out of town.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,641 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wynola. 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 Wynola 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 Wynola 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 Wynola 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.
