“I cannot recommend Ashley enough! I have two very high-energy dogs who require a lot of attention and exercise, and she handled them with such patience, care, and love. From the moment I met her, it was clear she truly understands dogs and enjoys spending time with them. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When I got home, the dogs were happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It’s not easy to find someone who can keep up with their energy, but she did it effortlessly! If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and absolutely amazing with dogs, look no further—we feel so lucky to have found her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats in the past, when I lived in Australia, and in Napa, I am trusted by all of my friends and family to take care of their pets and home while they are away. I have been doing so much housesitting recently, I decided to offer my services to others again! I love animals and am always that person that can't walk past a cat or dog without saying hello and giving them a pat. I am a winemaker and notary on the side, so I have had regular background checks and am a respectful and responsible person. I live by the moto of "leave the place better than you found it" and am very cautious and mindful to leave your home in perfect condition, so you can return home with no problems and no cleaning to worry about! I work full-time and am generally at work by 7:30am and am home by 4pm. I spend a lot of time at home on the weekends to get work done and tend to walk with friends to get exercise or go to the local farmers markets. Give me a list of instructions that you would like done and I will fulfill all of your expectations! I work during the day, so I will not be able to stop by during the day in most cases (between 7:30am-4:30pm), but I will free for walks before and/or after work and anything else that needs to be done.
“Dorothy is an awesome communicator and took amazing care of our puppy and home. She sent daily texts with updates and pics which reasssured us that our puppy was happy and well taken care of. We would be lucky to have Dorothy help us again in the future!”
“Kelly was a fantastic sitter for my fur baby Onyx! She was in regular communication, sent lots of pics and kept me updated as necessary. Onyx was well taken care of and Kelly was loving, patient and kind with her. She worked with me on crazy changes to my flight schedule and even offered to stay late which I really appreciated. She left my house clean and fresh and was a pleasure to work with. She is reliable and a great communicator. She even checked on Onyx the day after my return. I’d definitely have Kelly again and am already trying to book her for a future date. Thank you Kelly for taking such great care of Onyx, for being so loving with her and for being willing to work with me on all levels!”
“Giana was amazing with my pups, I think they miss her more than than the girls missed me. Giana stayed at the house and left it just the way I left it clean, tidy and sent plenty of pictures and videos while I was gone. I would highly recommend and trust her for daily walks, stay overs, or other sitting needs.”
“Katie is a true “dog person”. She was unfazed by our boxers’ exuberant greetings and quickly developed a rapport with them. Her communication and attention to care is outstanding. Our dogs were very relaxed and happy when we returned.”
About: I have taken care of many dogs, including my own. I've had 2 huskies in the past and now have a black lab. I love spending time with animals. I make sure that dogs get all the loving that they need. I’m available pretty much any time of the day because I work from home. I will walk your dog or care for your dog at home. If you need me to I can keep you updated on how things are going to insure that you are completely happy. I will even send you endless pictures if you'd like! I currently work from home and am able to stay overnight whenever needed and can check up on your dog anytime of the day. I'm even happy to sit with them while I take a meeting! My dog is an indoor and outdoor dog. He enjoys playing in the yard and going for walks. I usually sit on the patio with him while I work if the weather is nice. At night he goes into a crate. I will make sure that your pet gets the attention that it needs.
“Giselle did a great job taking care of Rosie and Gracie! She sent pupdates and photos on a regular basis and she asked questions when she needed to be sure of something. The dogs seemed calm and well cared for when I arrived back home.”
“Melany pet sat my four animals for me for an overnight. She was easy to communicate with before the sit, took lots of cute pictures during, and left my house very clean. I came home to happy animals all around. Would highly recommend for any of your needs on Rover!”
“Jessica is a true animal lover who puts so much care and attention into her work, treating your pets as if they were her own. She took care of my dog and two cats for almost a week while I was out of town and I got frequent updates and came home to very happy animals! It’s also clear in talking with her that she has a wide range of animal experience, not just dogs and cats. Highly recommend and grateful to have found someone who I know will take excellent care of my pets.”
About: I've spent years caring for my own pets, including senior dogs and cats, and I understand how important it is to treat every pet like family. I'm comfortable with puppies, shy dogs, counter surfers, herding breeds, and dogs who simply need alittle extra patience. Your pets safety, happiness, and routine always comes first. Please note: For Constant Care: If your pet needs someone home with them and cannot be left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time, there will be an added constant care rate of $75 per day. I schedule my day around making sure they're fed, exercised, and given plenty of love. My job allows me to be very flexible with my time. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.
“Angela is so great with our sweet dog! Remi took an immediate liking to Angela and that says alot!! My husband and I feel very comfortable leaving Remi with her! She's greatl!! ❤️”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs, lab mix and a chihuahua mix. I was especially fond of Rosie( our lab), she was a very loving and sweet pup. I understand how a pet really can become a special part of your life and I know it's important to treat them well. I love having the companionship of a dog in the home and I am very good with dogs even when they are very hyper. I have a patient and loving way with dogs. I'd be happy to play with your dog, take them out for some exercise and give them the attention they need! I'm free if they need to get out in the mornings as you to rush off to work or school!
“Hayley was great with my senior dog and accompanying cat. It was great to get the check-ins while away and have the full confidence that the fur-kids were getting the best care. We'll definitely be looking for a rebook soon!”
“We were hesitant to trust anyone but family or friends with our beloved dog, Bella, but Channing completely won us over! Channing stayed in our home for several nights to take care of Bella. With daily pup dates and photos, we knew that Bella was happy and well taken care of. Also, our house was cleaner than when we left! It's clear that Channing genuinely cares for animals and treats them like her own. Thank you, Channing, for providing such wonderful care for our furry family member! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Yountville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Yountville on Rover is $89.91 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 2,070 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Yountville. 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 Yountville 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 Yountville 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 Yountville 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.
