“Dani was amazing! She took such good care of my pup and home for a week. She sent detailed updates with pictures every day. And she also took care of some plants for me. I came home to a happy dog and a clean house. She was fantastic!”
“Brandy is the best! She requested a meet and greet and we knew right away she'd be a perfect fit. Brandy was great with our fussy, senior dog following her routine perfectly. We came back to a spotless house and really appreciated the frequent updates while we were gone. We can recommend Brandy without hesitation and will absolutely be using her services in the future.”
“Destiny was wonderful. She watched all 5 of our animals. 1 cat, 2 senior Chihuahuas and 2 puppies. That is not an easy task. Upon returning home I could tell they were all well taken care of. The house was clean (which isn't easy with 2 puppies) and she even left music in for them when she left. A kind soul that I will absolutely trust my animals with again.”
“Sydnee took very good care of our dog, Gabriel while we were on vacation. Sydnee sent daily pictures and updates about our dog. I will definitely be rebooking with Sydnee in the future!”
“Amelia is the best around she is very attentive Great with my dogs. I went to a baseball tournament in Portland and my fridge broke she moved all the freezer items into the garage freezer for me and helped my friends who came to get the condiments out she is so great! Very responsive and I have already booked with her twice!”
“Cayla was wonderful! She sent us lots of pictures and was very patient with our anxious pup. She also made sure our house was locked tight when she left. Would definitely recommend.”
“We use Olivia to sit our two dogs and cat. She keeps us updated with pictures and takes amazing care of them. They are always relaxed when we get back, which says a lot!”
“Rosa is a fantastic house sitter and cat sitter. She went above and beyond to care for my cat and take care of my home. I felt at ease the whole time I was away.”
“Lucinda was such an amazing pet sitter! She was so good with our 2 dogs and cat from sending us pictures and videos daily to even bringing them Christmas presents 🎁 Her communication was great and I felt at ease knowing she was there watching our pets. She deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter ♥️”
“I'm so happy I found Rebecca to care for my 2-year-old German Shepherd/Border Collie Mix. Pepper is a rescue and is always tentative around visitors and guests. I'm rarely separated from her and was worried about separation anxiety. But after a short time, Bernadette and Pepper were getting along very well. She is very gentle and loving and the only problem was Pepper wanting to shower her in affection! :). Rebecca stayed in my home and took care of everything while I was away. She is 100% trustworthy. I am happy to recommend Rebecca and won't hesitate to use her services again.”
About: Im a lifelong dog lover with four dogs of my own. Active, reliable, flexible, and experienced with puppies. I’ll treat your pup like family. I work for myself, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to provide your dog with attention, walks, playtime, potty breaks and companionship. I’m unable to host other dogs in my home because I have four dogs of my own, but I’m happy to provide care through walks, drop-ins, and house sitting.
“Alivia did an amazing job with my reactive, 60 lb Old English Sheepdog. Willa took to her immediately, which is rare and means she has the BEST vibes. She stayed with Willa in our apartment while I was out of state, gave regular updates, wasn’t afraid to ask questions, and I arrived home to a happy, healthy sheepdog and a clean apartment.”
“Gabriela was attentive and very knowledgeable about caring for our scared dog during the Fourth of July. When we got home the house was clean, our pets were happy and my garden and plants had been well-watered during a heat spell! We are so grateful for Gabriela!”
“Elizabeth was AMAZING!! She would send us updates on the regular, even when we did not ask her too but it was so welcomed since we were very nervous to be away from our two little dogs. She would send us videos and pictures! She left our home extremely clean as well. She is friendly and polite as well. I can not even begin to say one negative thing about her, I wish I could so no one else would want her lol just kidding! Please use her!! She is fantastic!!!”
“Chelsea cared for my small senior female dog over a holiday weekend. Unfortunately my dog was scared but Chelsea didn’t stop thinking of ways to get her comfortable as well as communicating with me frequently.”
“I'm very happy with Maggie who stayed at my home with two dogs and a cat for 3 days, 2 nights. She's obviously an animal lover and they all like her. My home looked great on my return and all the pets were happy. I am using Maggie again in the near future and am comfortable recommending her for overnight stays.”
“Caralisa took such great care of our kitty, we are definitely booking her again!!! Thank you for going the extra mile and giving us peace of mind while away on vacation🤍”
“Kaitlyn wall did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and three cats for an overnight. I would definitely recommend her. When she came to return the key, our dog went happily up to her and lay down at her feet—there’s the proof right there! Plus she sent pics of the animals and was a great communicator before, during, and after her stay.”
“Llewyn is an awesome house/dog sitter. We were gone for 2.5 weeks and they did a spectacular job with updates and photos of our dogs and care for our house and garden. We came home to happy dogs and an immaculate house. 100% recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Alvadore
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 864 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Alvadore. 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 Alvadore 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 Alvadore 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 Alvadore 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.
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.
