“Angelica took wonderful care of our sensitive older dog, Buddy. Since it had been quite some time since we last left him, we were naturally a bit nervous, but Angelica made the whole experience very reassuring. She kept us updated with Buddy’s activities and sent lots of great pictures, which really helped us feel confident that he was well cared for and loved while we were away. It was clear that Buddy and Angelica got along wonderfully, and that meant the world to us. When we returned home, everything was in perfect order and Buddy was relaxed and content. We’re so grateful for the care and attention Angelica gave him, and we look forward to and would absolutely trust her with Buddy again.”
“Charlotte was the perfect house guest and we would gladly have her watch our house and Arlo again. She was very responsive, sent photos, and took Arlo for long walks. Super grateful that we found her as last minute as we did and would highly recommend.”
“Couldn't be happier with Maya taking care of our home and four animals. House was in great condition, animals happy, exercised, brushed, treated, and given medication. Maya shared photos and updates daily and left behind cute poloroids of the animals. We will definitely ask Maya to house and animal watch in the future.”
“Sebastian was amazing! We had to book last minute with two very spirited pups. Sebastian was super accommodating and even showed up an hour early to hang out with our boys while we packed. Sebastian was totally un-phased by our big guy's food aggression and had no trouble getting them their meals. Every picture that was sent the boys looked like they were having a blast playing and snuggling! We plan to use Sebastian in the future and will recommend them to anyone that needs any help with their animals.”
“Bricca is awesome! She watched my dog and my home for a week and provided daily pics of Poppy for me. She’s an excellent communicator. The house was just as I’d left it and she laundered everything she used. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Katlyn and Ashley are wonderful dog sitters for our girls. We have a pup who needs medications for seizures and another who is a guardian breed and needs extra attention. They were attentive to the dogs, sent pics, communicated well, and most importantly gave us peace of mind! We will definitely have them care for the pups again!”
“Danayt took wonderful care of my dog and house, and I would definitely hire her again! She sent lots of updates about how my dog was doing and was very professional and friendly. She even cleaned up the house before I returned. I highly recommend her!”
“Mackenzie was great with our cats. She has chill cat energy that our cranky eldest cat and our timid semi-feral youngest cat both appreciated. She was very responsive and sent us great pictures of the kitties and house details.”
“We needed someone to hang out with our dog and cat for several days while we were on vacation and Ryana did a great job watching our house and mammals. She even handled an unexpected internet technician visit with no fuss. My dog was happy and relaxed and got lots of good play time in the yard, I would call Ryana again next time we're out of town.”
“Kaitlyn took great care of our pups and house while we were away. She’s an excellent communicator and I love that she’s so good about setting expectations up front. She did a fabulous job with our two large dogs who are on a few different medications right now. Thanks Kaitlyn!”
“Zachary set-up a meet and greet to ensure chemistry, a good fit, etc. On the day of arrival he was on-time. Throughout the day he provided periodic updates with photos. I appreciate his kindness and gentleness as my dog is older with some special needs. Would definitely have him again!”
“We had Erica back to house sit out dogs and rabbit a second time and she did a great job again. Our house was spotless when we came home and our dogs were relaxed and happy. Communication during the stay was great and she helped out with a few small requests I had around the house as I remembered them. I am planning to have her house sit for us again and gladly recommend her.”
“Baylee was fantastic and we're appreciative of her care for our two boys. She provided daily updates, along with photos, and kept our home in great condition while we were away. We loved that our boys took a liking to Baylee, especially how mopey they were after she left - definitely showing they were cared for and given the attention they needed. I'm glad we found Baylee and would definitely book with her again!”
“Lindsey was so helpful in making sure our dogs felt comfortable with us out of town! One of our dogs needs some supplements and medication and she made sure that he was well taken care of everyday. She made sure to pay attention and spend quality time with them and give them potty breaks when needed! We also really appreciated all the pictures (: Highly recommend!”
“Karen was a great addition to the house and pup over the long weekend! Very attentive, used the house as her own per my request, came back to it just how I left it, and loved every second of my doggo. Highly recommended if you’re looking for the at home service.”
“Meka is amazing and pickle adores her. Today we had a minor emergency and we were out of town. Meka stepped up and made sure Pickle was safe until we could put a plan in place. This was priceless and you can’t put stars or money on it’s value. If I could give 10 stars I would. You can’t go wrong with her caring for your fur babies. Meka we were so lucky for your help.”
“Carlynn was literally the best dog sitter I have ever had. Not only did she make sure my pet was comfortable and well taken care of, she also made sure to leave my apartment in even BETTER condition that when we left! I would rebook her a million times over! Highly, highly recommended her!”
“Stephani was such a wonderful sitter for our handful of dogs, that have their various needs (i.e., prescriptions) and strong personalities being huskies. Our doggos seemed instantly calm with her during the meet and greet, and when we returned they didn't want to leave her side. We are so appreciative of her staying with them and giving them such love and care!”

Giannara was amazing. She is great with responsive communication. My basset hound is normally very shy and takes days to warm up to people. Not with Giannara. He was on her lap in a few short hours. There is something special about her. We will be booking her again soon!
We had Erica back to house sit out dogs and rabbit a second time and she did a great job again. Our house was spotless when we came home and our dogs were relaxed and happy. Communication during the stay was great and she helped out with a few small requests I had around the house as I remembered them. I am planning to have her house sit for us again and gladly recommend her.
We would absolutely recommend Sherri. She took the time to drop by twice to meet us and our furry family prior to looking after them all for just over a week. She was calm and relaxed with our dog who takes a while to warm up to people, recognising that she just needs to come to being comfortable with new people in her own time. Our opinionated and determined, elderly cats took a shine to her quickly and Sherri was willing to work with them so they would be able to get some outdoor time while she was watching them. As it turned out they were able to just continue their normal routine which kept them very content. Sherri's communication was excellent throughout the entire time and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our furries and home were in safe hands. We had another booking with Sherri in place before we got back!
Jeanie was such a great sitter! Took lovely care of my dogs and was so easy to work with. It was raining the last afternoon she was with them and she took them out three times to get them to go potty before I got home. It’s a small thing but it was soooooo appreciated that I didn’t need to walk them as soon as I got home from traveling. I would definitely recommend her!!!
Lynlee has been nothing short of incredible for our family and pets. Having two large dogs makes it hard to travel and we really haven’t done much of it. Having somebody reliable who takes such good care of our dogs has given us the confidence to go on our first trip in years! Cannot recommend her enough.
Morgan did a great job of taking care of our rambunctious 8 month old puppy and our house for over a week while we were on vacation. She sent daily photos of the dog and was quick to get in touch when she had any questions. Our house was clean when we returned and the puppy was happy.
Danielle is a fantastic sitter! She did an amazing job watching our 2 pups for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She communicated frequently on how they were doing and sent cute pics. I did not worry one bit knowing they were in her care, and she also took awesome care of our home! I highly recommend Danielle and will certainly be contacting her again! Frankie and Jarle say “thank you Danielle for staying with us”!!
Kaitlin took great care of Sully and Mia while we were away! She was thorough, asked all the right questions upfront, and communicated really well throughout the stay. We felt totally comfortable knowing they were in good hands and came home to two very happy dogs. Would definitely book Kaitlin again!
Rowena continues to be our favorite sitter! Our kitty has special needs - pills every night and an inhaler twice a day. We always know she is well taken care of when she is in Rowenas care. She recently stayed at our house for over 2 weeks while we were on our honeymoon. Rowena takes great care of our house too - even watered my plants. So grateful we have found her and will continue to use her whenever she is available!
Catie was an exceptional sitter for our 9month old dog Sage. She stayed in our house for 8 nights and left the space as clean as she arrived. She took great care of Sage, taking her to dog parks and walks. She was attentive and asked questions. She checked in daily. I never had a worry about Sages care. We will hopefully be booking her again in the future.

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 Alderwood Manor 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 Alderwood Manor 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Alderwood Manor 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.
