“What amazed me about Ryan was how organized, knowledgeable and self-sufficient he was. He even took notes at the meet and greet! We quickly concluded that we and our pups were in very good hands!(”
“Adia did an amazing jog taking care of our dog and house. She is highly reliable and surpassed our expectations. She always showed up on time and went the extra mile. I had no worries while I was away. I would book again.”
“Adam was absolutely amazing with my elderly great dane. He's incredibly knowledgeable about large breeds and their needs. I never felt the need to check my cameras to make sure he was still there. He sent me plenty of updates with adorable pictures. I would trust him with my babies anytime.”
“Cheryl K was a wonderful sitter of my dog and my house. I will trust her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need. She is professional and attentive. She was respectful of my house, leaving it clean and neat and a dog clearly calm and happy. Thank you Cheryl. See you again”
“Megan was great to work with! She took great care of our boys while we were out of town, was communicative with updates and pics. She even washed the bedding from the guest room before she left. Thanks so much!”
“Danielle always makes traveling and leaving our fur babies a little easier as we know they are getting lots of love and treats ☺️ always stays in contact and communicates very well.”
“She was so accommodating and was wonderful with our super senior dog! She was also so knowledgeable about her current health conditions and did a great job with all meds and special feeding routines. She was wonderful ❤️”
“Olivia was absolutely fantastic with Tully and Jasper while I was in Mexico this week! She kept me updated so well starting with the very first day, she sent pictures and videos and that peace of mind really allowed me to be able to enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about the dogs. I would 10/10 recommend and I certainly will be booking with her again!”
“Chloe is the best. I had a change in plans and had to extend my trip and she agreed to stay longer with my babies. I never worried once about them. Amazing sitter!!”
“Can't say enough about Karen; she was attentive and sent pictures to keep me aware of how my baby was doing. I usually travel with my dog, but that wasn't an option this time. I was hesitant, but all my fears vanished when I saw the first picture! I knew she was in good hands.”
“Jennifer was the absolute best! She was very thorough when we first met. Jennifer gave me updates daily with pictures. She took such great care of our Ruby, 100% will ask her to stay and see watch Ruby again. If you want someone who is very reliable, thorough, caring and devoted to your pet, book with Jennifer!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I usually watch just one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.
“Molly took care of my senior and 3 yo huskies for 5 days and did a great job; I plan to ask her to help again in the future. She walked them according to what we agreed and they seemed healthy and happy upon my return. Her updates included pics, and she told me when she was "accepted into the pack" when my dog decided to sleep on the bed with her. Thanks Molly!”
About: I have had cats, dogs and rodents since I was able to walk. I love all animals and cannot wait to meet yours! I currently have two cats, two rats and a leopard gecko. I am currently a student and I have plenty of time on my hands to take great care of any pet that you need! I attend school for a few hours a day and am free most of the time! I live in an apartment, but have no issues watching pets in your home! I could take in cats, but dogs might feel a bit cramped in my one bedroom apartment
“The dogs love Grady and we love him. Always takes care of the house and the pups the way we would take care of them. We feel lucky to have him be our pet sitter!”
“Lily did a wonderful job with my senior, partially deaf, dog, and guinea pig. My dog can be challenging as he can be a bit standoffish, but she got him to warm up. Also, he only gets pain medication when necessary, so it was up to her observation and judgment. My guinea pig requires daily cage cleaning and feeding, in addition to handling my dog's needs.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Almedia is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Almedia
Adia took extra special care of our pups as an in-home sitter for a week long vacation and kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Communication was prompt and friendly, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 768 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Almedia. 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 Almedia 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 Almedia 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 Almedia 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.
