“Tifaney did a wonderful job. She kept at it when my old baby wouldn't come out of his hiding place until he finally decided she is a 5 star! Great house guest and left things better than before. I will book Tifaney again.”
“Alonna was awesome! We felt at ease leaving town knowing she was caring for our pups. She checked in frequently, send pictures, and left the house clean. I would book her again in a heartbeat, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!! :)”
“Daniel stayed with our two dogs for eight days. They were happy, eating and playful all week. He has been so good for our dogs when we are gone. He took care of all their needs and gave them play time in the yard. The house and the dogs were in great condition when we returned. He even folded blankets and left the place clean. He stayed a couple extra hours when our flights continued to get delayed just in case they were cancelled, and left calming dog channel on for them when he did leave. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“I have not left one of my pups to travel in over a year. She had her gall bladder removed June 2025 and was shortly thereafter diagnosed with Cushing's Disease, so I was scared to leave her, but I had a wedding in Charleston to go to, so I contacted Nikki. She came over and met the girls and I liked her a lot. She was on time the day I was leaving. She left the house just like she found it. She texted me frequesnt updates and pictures. She made my short trip to Charlestion much less stressful. I will definiotely reach out to Nikki the next time I need someone to stay at my house with the pups.”
“There was some unexpected bumps that come up during week stay but Lauren was so gracious and she took Twix to her place. She sent updates everyday with pictures of him. Our somewhat picky dog became a dog that is more laid back, enjoyed their cat and and made many new friends. Lauren gave him the best care along with her family. Twix was so sad to leave their home, he had the best vacation.”
“Angela took wonderful care of our babies and home, while we were away for the holidays. She provided plenty of updates, and daily photos, that gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend! We can’t wait to have her back again :)”
“My dogs are 10 and 12, and they both got sick on my very first day out of town. Chrissonna was incredible - she kept a close eye on them, gave me clear updates about what was going on, and had them both comfortable, taking their meds, and feeling better before the end of the day. It was such a relief to know they were in good hands. I would highly recommend Chrissonna to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling.”

“Victoria is great with our 4 furkids. The 3 older kids took to her right away. Little Monkey took a little longer, but he came around. We will definitly book with Victoria again. We highly recommend her.”
“This was my third time having Yvonne watch the Bassets, and once again she did a fantastic job. She is reliable, communicative, flexible, and always takes great care of the dogs and my home. This trip involved coordinating a handoff with another Rover sitter, and Yvonne handled everything directly and seamlessly without me needing to manage the transition while I was away. It was another completely stress-free experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Yvonne again. Highly recommend!”
“Christine was a great sitter for our house and pets. We have a dog, cats, and several ducks and Christine took care of them all very well. One duck needs medication twice a day, and I was impressed that Christine was totally unbothered by this and capably gave the duck her medicine. I will definitely be booking Christine again for our next trip.”
“Reggi is great! As soon as I met her I felt comfortable leaving Mickey with her. She came highly recommended by a friend, Ashley. She made sure to keep in contact before the weekend and also during the weekend with texts, updates and pictures. In the pictures he looked really relaxed and content. I will definitely book her again!”

John was amazing! Our two dogs were so well taken care of by him. And not only our dogs, but our home looked better when we returned than how we left it. I would highly recommend John to not only take care of your pets but also stay in your home. We will definitely become his repeat customers.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,843 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alexis. 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 Alexis 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 Alexis 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 Alexis 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
