“Erica was prompt, reliable and sweet to our two small pups. We received regular communication from her with photos. The moment we met her we felt confident that our puppies (who are like babies to us) would be well cared for and she exceeded our expectations. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Erica!”
“I had a great experience with Robin! She did in my home sitting for 3 nights to take care of my 2 dogs and 1 cat. She sent me pictures everyday. I felt very comfortable with her care.”
“I was super grateful to have found such a highly recommended sitter for a very much needed short trip. It was a relief to have someone look after my pets and know that everything was handled at home. My pets were well cared for, and I appreciated being able to take my trip with peace of mind.”
About: Hi, I’m Madelyn!, Your Friendly Neighborhood Pet Sitter! With a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I provide reliable, compassionate care for pets of all shapes and sizes. Whether you’re away for a day or a week, I make sure your furry (or feathered!) family members feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, and furry friends of any kind of size! I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs—feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, or just keeping them company. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Trustworthy, punctual, and detail-oriented, I aim to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Let’s make your time apart from your pet as stress-free as possible—for both of you! 🐶 🦴 🐱🩵🦜🦴🐓💙🐴 Pet care is a natural and rewarding part of my daily and weekly routine. Every day, I schedule time specifically for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins with the pets I care for. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening check-ins, I structure my day around my clients’ needs to ensure consistency and reliability. I treat each pet like they’re part of my own family, so spending time with them doesn’t feel like a task—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. On a weekly basis, I also stay in touch with pet owners to confirm schedules, provide updates, and adjust care plans if needed. My routine is flexible but always built around providing the highest level of attention, safety, and affection to every animal I care for. In clients’ homes, or my own I follow their pet’s routine—feeding, walks, play, meds, and cleanup—ensuring comfort, safety, and love in a familiar, stress-free environment..🐶👍🏡🐾

“I used Rover for the first time, as all our regulars were unavailable over spring break. I was a bit nervous and had heard mixed reviews, but KALI was AMAZING!! I’d use her again and again. It was heartwarming to watch little miss P warm up to her after the first few days. She followed all instructions and took care of my home like her own. She communicates well and consistently checks in. Would 10/10 recommend and can’t wait to use her again. Thank you Kali!”
“This is our first time using a dog/house sitter. Charlene is the BEST! She kept us updated with pictures and texts letting us know how our dog was doing, showered him with love, kept him active and well cared for. I would HIGHLY reccommend Charlene.”
“Our first time using Rover and Rachel; she was fantastic with our 3 dogs!! Rachel sent pictures and/or videos daily; stayed overnight for a week and we came home to happy pups!! When we got home they fur kids we so happy to see us but then would run over to Rachel as well, which told me they had a blast!! Thank you so much!!!”
About: As a child, my siblings and I raised dogs and cats at our country house. Therein, I spent a large portion of my childhood with animals, where I learned to respect them and appreciate how unique and loveable they can be. I am working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to either check in on your pets, walk them, or spend time with them. I love cats and dogs equally. I have three dogs at home, two of them are big dogs and one of them is small. The first two I mentioned, were rescued as puppies-and so I have a deep appreciation for all types of dogs and cats, despite their pasts. I also have a history with cats, the number of them I cannot say, but I love taking care of them too.
“Charlayne was amazing! She took excellent care of my 3 while i was away for a week! She had a busy schedule during this time but still managed to prioritize the care of my pups! She sent photos with updates throughout my trip. I also came home to a clean house! It’s an amazing feeling not having to worry about my fur babies while on vacation and then to come home to peace is such a blessing! Thank you so much!”
About: I had plenty of dogs. I love dogs of all kinds. Unfortunately cant have any right now. Will play with them walk them when I can. I have a full time job but can check on them during my break. Im working full time 40+ hours a week. I can check on them during my breaks, and on my days off i stay with them all day. We currently don't have any pets. We don't have a fence in yard and live close to a highway where most people drive like crazy.
“Karen is amazing! Every one of our dogs love her - even the two grumpy old men :) She was patient and kind and let the shy ones come around slowly - the others trusted her immediately. Karen was conscientious about our home and cleaned up all the messes! We will definitely ask Karen to come back :)”

FAQs for House Sitting - Aley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 183 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aley. 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 Aley 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 Aley 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 Aley 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 Aley. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% 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.
