“This is my first time using Rover and we were looking for an overnight sitter for mainly my little Genee girl who has never not had family around her. Anika filled that gap for us and did an amazing job. She put up with all my messages and provided pictures of Genee on walks and playing. She even included pics of the cat lounging around as usual. I was worried about leaving Genee for the first time but Anika made it much easier for me! I would highly recommend her and I will be calling upon her again when we need a sitter!”
“Wendy was great!! When she came over to meet the boys ( tuxedo cats)… for the first “meeting “ she sat on the floor with them, I really liked that….asked a lot of questions, to get to know them!! Sent me pics and updates….when I got home, they were happy…that is the best outcome!!!! Will definitely use Wendy in the future!!!!!!??”
“merry was great with my dog! they were very thorough and made sure they had al the necessary info to take care of him, and i was very confident that we would be well taken care of while i was gone! highly recommend (:”
“Molly was great! Super responsive, flexible, and a great communicator! She sent great pics while she was caring for our kitty, and it’s clear our cat bonded with her right away. We felt great knowing Akira was being well looked after while we were away. Would absolutely book again and recommend!”
“This is the first time Evelyn has done a sit for me, and I couldn't be more pleased. For 8 days she lived in my home and took care of my rambunctious Doberman. She texted me daily with information about how he was doing, notified me when she had questions or concerns, responded promptly to my texts/calls, provided Maestro with the agreed-upon food and medications, and took good care of my home as well. I will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Highly recommend Jayne! We had her come to our home to look after our two cats and dog. She handled all three with care and professionalism; providing lots of photos, updates, and one on one attention. I was a little nervous initially because we have a large American Akita that is very regimented, but Jayne had no problem following his typical walk/play schedule, and managing his handling. She was incredibly respectful of our home, making sure it was left in the same condition as when we left, and additionally watered our plants for us. She was very easy to work with, and her love for animals really shows! Will absolutely be using her as our go-to in the future.”
About: My preferred name is Ethan but you’re welcome to call me Meadow. I’ve taken care of animals since I was in middle school. I have been a pet sitter for many people for a few years now (usually cats and dogs) but I am open to other animals. I have two cats of my own who I love with all my heart! I am trying to build my portfolio to eventually work in the veterinary field. Im currently college to get a degree in Vet Tech. I have class from 10-12 am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This summer is really busy with animal care but you can always ask about dates and times. I follow care instructions to a t. I love playing with animals and some good lap time. I can do pretty much anything whether an animal has special needs/ care instructions. And am open to taking care of other kinds of animals besides dogs.
“I was worried about leaving my cat for the first time, but Erin took great care of him! I received regular updates and pictures, and the apartment was spotless. Thank you so much ☺️”
“Amir (and Tiana) were great! It was our first time leaving our puppy Nova for an extended period of time and first time using Rover but Amir sent plenty of pictures so we knew she was well taken care of. He checked in about giving her extra treats which we really appreciated. We'll definitely be booking them again!”
“She took great care of our two girl dogs. Our anxious girl has separation anxiety so it’s very helpful she’s able to be with them in our home so much. It is very hard to find a sitter that doesn’t have to leave for another job, go home to care for other pets, can’t stay the night, etc. We will be booking with her in the future!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life from the day I was born. I grew up on a farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. My passion for animals isn't just a hobby—it's been the focus of my personal and professional life. I have over 8 years of dog training experience and am comfortable working hands-on with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and behavior types. Whether you have a playful puppy, an energetic adolescent, a senior dog needing extra patience, or a dog with unique behavioral needs, I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I also absolutely love cats and enjoy building trust with each cat at their own pace. From social butterflies to shy kitties, I make sure every feline receives the attention and care they deserve. My experience extends far beyond dogs and cats. I have cared for rabbits, rats, hamsters, and other small animals, as well as reptiles, fish, and exotic pets. Thanks to my farm upbringing, I also have extensive experience with horses, livestock, and other farm animals. Because of my diverse background, I'm comfortable caring for multi-pet households and pets with specialized care routines. I understand that every animal is unique, and I treat each one as if they were my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. When you book with me, you're choosing someone with a lifetime of animal experience, professional handling skills, and a deep commitment to providing the highest quality care for animals of all kinds. 🐾❤️ Pet care is part of my daily life. I have years of hands-on animal care experience and build my schedule around providing reliable feeding, exercise, enrichment, training, and companionship. 🐾 I provide personalized care based on each pet's needs, including feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, medication administration, training reinforcement, and plenty of affection. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you're away. 🐾❤️
“Karen was an incredible dogsitter and we feel luck to have found her! She was communicative, great with our high-energy dog and took good care of our home. We look forward to Karen dogsitting in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Aislynn was so wonderful. This is our second setter through Rover and have had nothing but great experiences. It was great knowing Millie and Oliver was in safe hands during our day. I would for sure rebook with her again.”
“Jaydon is a very caring and attentive sitter. My dog Lola was well cared for and he followed all of her feeding instructions and gave daily meds. I was updated often by text and photos. Jaydon is caring and communicative. I hope to have Jaydon as a sitter again. Highly recommended!”
“Theo was such an amazing sitter, attentive, detailed, and gave daily check ins. Xxena was also given a little jacket for when the weather got cold for their morning walk and I couldn't be any more appreciative and Xxena was happy to have the company of Theo and the little one. Also left our place tidy and well taken care of :). Thank you SO much, Theo!”
“Amberle is the sweetest and a true professional! Our pets loved her so much and she was so communicative we really felt our pets were in great hands. She is so sweet and left the house better in better shape than we left it! We will 100% be trusting Amberle with our pets again!”
About: Hello! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and and excited to get to know yours and help out this summertime! For almost 15 years, I helped raise and take care of my family dog, Dakota. She was terrier mix who loved to play and eat like there’s no tomorrow! A few years after she passed, my sister adopted a puppy, and being a dog aunt has healed my heart once again! I love seeing dogs grow into their own personalities and learn from real world experiences. I feel that helping raise puppies, and continuing to care for them as they age gives me first hand insight on how dogs should be treated for best results: with patience, attention, and compassion. I feel confident giving commands and helping with basic training to puppies and actives, while also being more than happy to sit and chill with others :) Starting in June, I will be off for summer break from my job and will be available almost every day. I have pretty open availability on the weekends and am flexible to change things up. I’m looking forward to having a bit of a mixed schedule and taking things as they go. When sitting in a clients home, I think it’s important to make sure your fur baby feels comfortable since it is their space after all! I will do everything I can to help, whether it’s trying to play or get outside for a walk, but if it’s simply not happening and your pup is feeling nervous about someone they’re unfamiliar with in their home, then I will never push a boundary.
“Pam stayed at our house for a week while we are on vacation, and simply put, HIRE PAM. She is an amazing dog sitter and person. She carefully followed all of our detailed instructions for both of our dogs (related to medications, walking challenges, sleeping arrangements, etc.), sent us pictures and updates throughout our trip, and left our house in perfect condition when we returned. We don’t want to use anyone else to watch our dogs going forward. Thank you Pam!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Aims
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,319 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aims. 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 Aims 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 Aims 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 Aims 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aims. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
