“Alyssa did a great job!! She was attentive, communicated well and followed instructions well. The dogs and cats were happy and healthy when we returned and our home looked just how we left it! I would highly recommend Alyssa and will definitely use her again in the future!”

About: I have always had a deep love for animals in my l life! I have lived with cats and dogs my entire life—they’ve always been a part of me! Growing up, I always wanted to be a veterinarian so that I could care for animals because that’s how much I love them! I have taken care of dogs and cats on and off over the past 13 years of my life through my best friend’s dog and cat sitting business, as well as owning my own pets. I’ve dealt with all sizes of dogs. I’ve walked the dogs, fed them, played with them, cleaned up after them, etc. I have always loved taking care of fur babies and I guarantee I will instantly fall in love with your pet! I will make sure they are spoiled with love and the best care possible! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday, so I am completely free those entire days! On Tuesdays and Wednesdays I work in the office from 10-3 but am free before and after that! I will spoil your pet with unconditional love and cuddles! I take pride in providing proper care for animals and making sure all of their needs are met. I am a high energy college athlete who absolutely loves animals!
“Great communication throughout the whole process. Had a hiccup with my St Bernard, but it was a 50/50 chance on the sitting working out. We just moved to a new town, street, and house, so the doggos stress was too high. We'll definitely give it another try in the future!”

“Julie was awesome!! She took care of my two dogs and two cats. One of my dogs is a huge Great Pyrenees Pit Bull Mix that she figured out how to charm. She was very caring, and honestly visited more often and did way more than I was asking (or expected). She is my Go To if/when I need care for my critters!!!”

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for animals, including cats and dogs. I’m also a CNA with 5 years of professional caregiving experience, so I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and comfortable following specific care routines. I’ll treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship. I’m active, dependable, and enjoy spending time outdoors, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to! Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always follow each owner’s specific instructions and keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible. I make sure their environment is clean, secure, and comfortable, while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior or needs and will keep owners updated with photos and messages while their pet is in my care.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, from smaller breeds like dachshunds to larger dogs like Labs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve also dog-sat for family members and a family friend, caring for their dogs while they were away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, care, playtime, and affection. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own! I work full-time during the day, so I’m primarily available for pet care during evenings, weekends, and select holidays. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to accommodate drop-ins and walks when my schedule allows! I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable and follow their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care your pet needs.

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for!

“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She didn't hesitate to ask questions if she had any. She sent me photos of our pup while we were away. We definitely recommend her if you're in need of someone to watch after your fur babies.”

“Scott was just awesome. The dogs were very receptive to him. He sent numerous pictures. I will recommend him to anyone and everyone. My wife and I don't go on vacation very much because of our furry friends, but we may start to go more often now.”

“Rory was amazing with my Duchess. Being a giant she can intimidate people as well as she is nervous to meet new people. Rory and Duchess bonded quickly after introductions and I trust my girls instincts. He was very professional and was very flexible and accommodating for my spoiled Duchess’s needs. I will be rebooking with Rory with all my future fur baby sitting needs.”


“Jenny put up with our ridiculous Frenchies and even collected eggs from the chickens each day. The house was in the shape we left it and she communicated each day with updates. Would recommend!”

“Always timely and informative during visits. Very easy to talk to, easy to trust. I can count on Tanya to show up and make sure my pup is safe and well cared for. She’s extremely respectful of the space and you can tell she really does enjoy being with the pup. My go to for a sitter!”


“Briana was amazing with our two very high maintenance dogs even with some big last minute changes to their plans and care. Both of my dogs warmed up to her quickly and she took wonderful care of them. Absolutely recommend her!”

“Sydni stayed with our dog recently for the day while we were at the hospital. She communicated how things were going, sent pictures, and kept us up to date. We appreciated her care for our dog!”

About: I have experience taking care of both dogs and cats from two different boarding facilities, one larger and one smaller, personalized facility! I currently work as a groomer. In addition, I have both volunteered time at the local senior dog rescue, Grey Face 🤍 while also fostering multiple dogs over time. I work with dogs on a daily basis all ranging from walks, training exercises, enrichment, grooming and nail maintenance, etc.. Please ask about any services I may be able to provide! My personal dog is the contributor to much of my experience as well. I have knowledge in training behaviorally challenged dogs with behaviors specifically focused on separation anxiety, human reactivity, bite risk/management, dog reactivity, and basic fear and anxiety in dogs. To me, a happy dog is one not only one that can play to their hearts content but one that also is allowed the time for mental enrichment through interactive toys, positive reinforcement training, routines, satisfying walks, and through games involving food and treats all of which I have learned through my own research and enrollment in online instructions. I would be happy to care for your pets and provide them with the most enriching time possible. Pet care is my daily and weekly routine! My schedule is flexible and ever changing- so, I can always check my availability and work to make your pet fit into my schedule if possible! I personally have a fenced in backyard; however, I have experience walking multiple dogs at a time and handling dogs safely in open environments. I make intentional points to always be attentive to dogs regardless if they are fenced in or not. When I am caring for someone else’s dog, or my own, I make sure their safety is guaranteed. This is a skill I have sharpened since owning a fear reactive dog and caring for multiple dogs on a daily basis.

FAQs for House Sitting - Almelund
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 295 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Almelund. 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 Almelund 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 Almelund 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 Almelund 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.
