“Ayla was great! We knew instantly that she was the best fit for our special needs dog. She came over to introduce herself and get acquainted before our pet sitting dates and seemed to understand dog psychology and how interact to our highly anxious, deaf pit bull. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Rob was great! He sat for our 2 dogs and cat. He was very communicative, responsive, reliable, and sent updates and photos. You can tell he loves animals. The puppies were happy and the house was neat and tidy when we got home.”
“Ashlie was absolutely fantastic. She loved on our dogs. We could tell they were so happy when we came home. Very professional ..sent pictures. We were not worried one bit. I highly recommend her for all your pets sitting needs.”
“Cassie does a great job taking care of our "old lady"! Our cat is so much more like herself since Cassie started sitting with her when we are away instead of drop-in visits. She is also a great communicator.”
“If you were ever thinking of hiring a dog/house sitter, than look no more!! Rhonda is perfect!!! We never leave our dogs but now that we've found Rhonda, we won't think twice. From beginning til end she was great, so go ahead & plan the perfect escape. She will take care of everything. Thanks Rhonda, for doing what you do!!!!!!”
“Nathan was patient with my older dog Jewel who takes longer to warm up to new people but once she does she loves you! He was also great my with new puppy who is still learning the lay of the land. I would recommend him to all of my friends and book him again!”
“I needed a dog sitter last minute after a cancellation. She was on time, caring, responsive. Sent me several pictures and kept me updated. It was a great experience. Will definitely book again!”
“Our beach trip was at risk due to unavailability of our usual dog/house sitter. Found Elly on Rover and she was great! Provided photo updates of our dog that kept our minds at ease. Bo typically is quite anxious when we are gone and it takes several days after we return for him to calm back down. This time he was fine immediately. Elly also tended to our mail, etc. Highly recommend.”
“This is the first time we had someone stay at our house to watch our animals and we were a bit nervous about how it would go. We couldn't be happier! Stephanie was very communicative prior to her stay and made the effort to stop by our house twice beforehand so that Bosco would know her. While we were gone she sent us daily updates and pictures so that we didn't need to worry. Bosco did so well with Stephanie! We thought he'd pout and hide out most of the time but that's not what happened. He stayed by her so much that she referred to him as "her shadow". Bosco was happy and rested when we got home from vacation. In the past, when we've boarded him, he's been stressed out exhausted when we get home. This was a great experience and I'd highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Diana took amazing care of our dog Max! She was communicative and kept us updated, made sure he was happy and comfortable. We felt at ease knowing Max was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Leilani is super sweet and respectful, just simply amazing. She kept in touch the whole time we were away, sending pictures and videos. She treated our pups like family and they loved her. Definitely recommend her.”
“Robyn is absolutely amazing! She treats your furry family like they are her own and she took great care of our home. Robyn goes above and beyond to make sure your pets are not only cared for, but loved!”
“Hannah aka Mikki house sat for us and watched our mini dachshund. We did a meet and greet a few days prior to our trip (which we booked with her on short notice) and she was so great with Banjo, even totally unphased by his typical dachshund barking. She seems to truly love her job and love animals. She checked in while we were out of town and sent pictures. This was hands down the best experience we’ve ever had with a Rover sitter and we will absolutely be booking her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds, Pit Bulls, Bichon Frisés, and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I work 8AM to 4PM Monday through Thursday, but am free to watch your babies in the evening and Friday through Sunday. I provide drop-in visits and house-sitting. I have a fenced-in yard, two crates and four dogs all ready to be their new best friend! I do prefer to watch them in your home, not mine as I have one dog that isn’t the most friendly.
“Blaise and Kendall took good care of Wilson and Maggie. Wilson is pretty laid back while Maggie is a more energetic 7 month old puppy. They communicated with us regularly and sent lots of pictures. The morning after we returned, Maggie searched for them in our house showing us that she bonded well with them.”
“Sophie is always amazing but this time she had to deal with the crisis of my older pup passing away. She rushed him to the vet and stayed with my sweet boy the entire time. I can never thank her enough for the extra care she gave my pups. Thank you Sophie!”
“Elizabeth did a great job and I couldn’t be more pleased. She sent pictures everyday and is a great communicator. She also took great care of the house. It was very nice to come to a happy dog and clean home.”
“Erin was great with Rowan! She showed up on time was very communicative and sent pictures! We had a great experience with her watching him and our home. Rowan is still in training and she followed his rules and worked with him to continue his training! We will use again and you will be happy with Erin, she is great with dogs!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Adams Grove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,349 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Adams Grove. 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 Adams Grove 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 Adams Grove 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 Adams Grove 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.
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.
