“Rachel did an incredible job house sitting for a week+ with our Golden and tabby cat. She checked in with great pics and even got our pooch some toys. Thank you, Rachel, for making our trip stress-free. I appreciate you!!”
“Chasity was wonderful! From the moment I requested her to watch my 2 pups, she was quick to respond and easy to schedule time for an introduction. While Chasity kept my pups she kept me updated and I sent videos of how they were doing as well! She left my house tidier than I left it and I could tell the pups were well loved! Would definitely recommend Chasity to friends and use her again!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for lots of family friends since i was about 14/15 years old. I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and I love being able to help care for others furry family members. I always clean up after myself and your animals messes, no matter how big or small. I keep a close eye on the pets and have plenty of experience giving senior dog’s medicine if needed. I’m currently a receptionist at a dental school. I work Monday through Friday from 9:30am to 6pm and get a 30 minute lunch break anytime after 1pm. Although a good chunk of my day is at work, I am more than happy to drop by early in the morning or make a late night check in! I can come prepared with anything you’d need to make your and your pet more comfortable! I don’t have a very friendly cat at my home, so I’m not available for boarding. I do have reliable transportation and am very strict on time management, so if I told you i’m available, I promise I am and have put you and your pet on my priority list!
“Emily is the best! Our dogs love her and she always takes great care of them. She has dog sitted for us several times now and we know her to be super responsible and trustworthy.”
“Kelly is amazing! She takes care of our home and pets as if they were her own! To be able to leave and rest assure things are safe in her hands is absolutely wonderful! We can relax while we are away. She send updates, photos, and lets us know if something comes up. When we plan our trips, we now have to make sure she is available!”
“Jenna is such a gem. Our gsp is so happy, well cared for and spoiled every visit with Jenna. She is sparkling clean and a great communicator. Just a fabulous human :)”

“Angelica did a great job house sitting our dogs. She was a great communicator and sent lots of updates. She cleaned up after our dogs and left our home in good order. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your pets.”
“Kerry was great to have house sit for Murphy, who is a 12 yo chihuahua. She sent pictures everyday and he looked very content! I would recommend Kerry to anyone looking in the area. I will definitely use Kerry again!!”
“Cassidy is ALWAYS the very very best! great communication, sends us lots of pics, cleans up after herself, and our two dogs are so beyond happy with her! I’m not convinced they don’t like her more than me! I couldn’t ask for anything more !!!!!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old. Family, friends, neighbors, and strays. I have a love for pet of all kind. I have feed, walked, and played with them. I work full-time during the school year and want to add pet care to what I do during the school year and during the summers. During the school year I fit it in on the weekend.

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 Alpine Heights 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 Alpine Heights 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 Alpine Heights 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.
