“Sophia is the best! We had to leave our service dog (yes, there were many reasons for this) and he was just as happy when we returned as we left. You could tell he was well taken care of and enjoyed lots of treats. He’s not talking about how many but that’s ok. We will definitely be using her again.”
“This is my second time booking Sarah for house/dog sitting, and she’s great! This time I asked on pretty short notice, and she was available and accommodating to my schedule. Will definitely book again :)”
“Aubree was SO great with our doggies, Teddy and Millie! We made a last minute decision not to travel with our dogs and she was willing to come do a meet and greet and accepted the job very last minute, thankfully! She stayed at our home and made our sudden trip away for a family funeral much less stressful because we knew our dogs were in good hands. We have an older dog and a middle aged dog with potty issues, especially when routines change at home. Aubree was patient and willing to clean up after them and I’m so grateful for that extra work and effort. She also sent us pupdates while we were away and pictures! Her communication is always positive and reassuring, making it such a pleasure to know her and work with her! We’re already working on scheduling with her for another trip coming up!”
“Simone took such good care of Ollie while we were away! She’s so sweet and kind, and Ollie loved her. She sent several photos and a video, which we loved! We will definitely rebook!”
“Londyn did great with our puppers! She took good care and gave them lots of walks during her stay which our husky needs. She kept us in the loop with regular updates. And left our house neat and clean. We will gladly use her services again.”
“Katelyn was awesome! She took excellent care of my two dogs and my home. She sent photos and video of my pups multiple times a day, kept me informed, and even dealt with arriving packages, watering my plants, and other various tasks. Upon returning home, I found happy, healthy dogs and my house spotless and clean. I would most definitely book Katelyn again in the future!”
“Abby was fantastic! She came and met my pups prior to house sitting just to get acquainted. My aggressive pup absolutely loved her and she text me updates throughout the visit letting me know when she came to the house and when she left after her stay! Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future!”
About: I grew up with animals! I have had a dog in my home since I was born and I believe that they are truly a part of the family. I work full time, so I am happy to help with your furry friend for overnights and weekends! I can do afternoon check ins on my break depending on location. I do not currently have any pets, so I am able to give all my attention to yours :) I am a runner and stay active - so I can take hyperactive dogs for a run or to the park for some exercise!
“Tess has been doing a great job walking my dogs regularly the last few weeks, so I knew I could trust her with my babies while I was out of town for a week. She sent regular photo updates of them eating, going outside and snuggling. She was considerate of the house and made sure to leave everything better than she found it. Her communication was great! I will be using her again.”
“Another great experience! Could not recommend her enough!! She is great with Jax and the easiest to communicate with. I always know he will be taken care of with her watching him.”
About: I’m a college student who’s majoring in poultry science. has all ways grown up with dogs as well as cats. I’m looking to dog sit and provide great care to someone else’s pet. I’ve worked with both small and large dogs. I’ve also taken care of multiple cats. For taking care of dogs I like to take them on long walks,play fetch, give them lots of attention and make sure they aren’t lonely. For cats to like to make sure they get attention to if they want it and play with them if they like to play. I also like to send updates of how the pets are doing as well as pictures. With me your pets and home will always be safe and cared for.
“Eaten is an absolutely awesome sitter! I can't recommend her enough. She was great with Maggie and took great care of her. I got updates and everything went so smoothly. I will absolutely have Caten hang out with Maggie again.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring to every dog. With 11 years of experience caring for my family's dog, I understand the importance of trust, consistency, and personalized care. I treat every pet as if they were my own—ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for at all times I'm available all day everyday Monday- Friday! Anytime of the day! I currently have a part time job that takes up a few hours once or twice a week! I have a fully fenced in yard as well as a very sweet and gentle 11 year old dog at my family's house! I can easily crate your dog as well. I'm well at maintaining routines and providing a safe, structured, and stress free environment.
About: My experience comes from years of caring for my own dog "Griffey" and cat "Miss Kitty", along with pets belonging to friends and family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or a calm presence, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own and keep you updated so you can feel completely at ease. I joined Rover because I miss having my dog in my everyday life. He is currently staying with my parents back home in north-central Kansas. My dad’s health isn’t the best, and my dog brings him a great deal of comfort, so I know he is where he needs to be for now. I return home about once a month to visit them. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Best Shawn Phelps I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can often accommodate short-notice requests and easily work around your pet’s regular feeding, playtime, and care routine. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in familiar surroundings. I will follow each pet’s normal routine, carefully secure doors and gates, respect the client’s home, and provide regular updates and photos. I have a friendly cat at home who gets along well with dogs but prefers not to be around other cats. Because of that, I would care for cats in their own homes but may welcome dogs into mine after a meet-and-greet. I’m flexible and always willing to discuss the safest arrangement for each pet.
“Liz came to visit and learn about my “needy boys” before hand. (They are all males, hence “my boys.” It was less stressful for me knowing she wanted to know exactly what to do for each one. Caring for them is a load but she was willing to tackle it, and they fell in love with her immediately. She gave them all equal time, and I couldn’t ask for more. I was nervous because they had not known her before, but as I said they loved her immediately and she was quick to get to know them. I was able to get relax on my trip while receiving sweet pictures and texts daily. Yes, I will use her again. Thanks Liz!”

Great experience. Jean came over a few weeks ahead for a meet and greet, communicated with me on everything, and was very easy to work with. The dogs were happy and got to stay home. Jean stayed at my house, took good care of the dogs, sent me updates and pictures, and even left a plate of fresh cookies.

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 Accident 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 Accident 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 Accident 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
