“Jaylin did a wonderful job caring for my energetic Pomsky! She worked around the rainy weather to make sure Pepper got enough exercise. The house was left neat and tidy. 🙂”

She sent us a lot of updates and pictures which we appreciate so much. We are so happy with her service, and we fully recommend her. We will absolutely be using her services again. Thank you Sophie!!”
About: I've had animals my whole life from cat and dogs to rabbits and ferrets. I can care for your beloved pet with drop ins or house sitting in your home. Please let me take the worry of your pet being home alone away. I am available for drop ins and walks at this time. Please let me know of any special needs required for visit to have a successful visit. I'll keep your pet cared for in their space so they are familiar with their environment. I will assist with feedings, play time, potty breaks, outside time, meds, and any other special needs if requested.
“Inna went above and beyond to take care of our pack of dogs. She communicated every day, sent multiple pictures, let us know what she needed and worked through unforeseen situations to help make both her and the dogs comfortable. We are so grateful for everything. It’s really difficult leaving your dogs but Inna made this week seamless.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals and have spent years caring for, walking, and helping rescue animals in need. Being around animals has always been something I genuinely love, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve had experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, and understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and energy level. I’m comfortable working with different temperaments and enjoy getting to know what makes each dog happy. I currently have a Border Collie of my own, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds and the importance of keeping dogs mentally and physically stimulated. I love going on long walks, exploring new places, playing, working on training, and finding fun ways to keep dogs engaged. My goal is to make every walk and visit something your dog looks forward to! I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and treated just like part of my own family. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I currently have completely open availability, allowing me to be flexible and accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets. I enjoy staying active and incorporating walks, playtime, exercise, and enrichment into a dog’s day. I can accommodate different energy levels and routines, whether that means long walks and adventures or a slower pace for older dogs. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I maintain a consistent routine with my own dog, which includes long walks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of mental stimulation. I love incorporating activities that keep dogs both physically active and mentally engaged, whether that’s exploring new places, practicing training, playing, or simply enjoying some outdoor time. When caring for someone else’s pets, I treat them just like my own. I make sure they are well-fed, exercised, comfortable, safe, and given plenty of affection and attention. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to adjust my approach to fit their specific needs, whether they enjoy long adventures or prefer a slower, more relaxed day. My biggest goal is to make sure every dog feels loved, cared for, and happy while their family is away!
About: Need a girl that can take care of your pets? I have 3 cats and 2 dogs, so I would love to take care of your babies! Will send pics for updates :) I’m currently working part time as a medical assistant! And I’m free on Tuesdays and Thursdays anytime, so just let me know what you want specifically for your pet🫶 I have treats if needed, I also have backpacks/carriers if needed. I usually take care of my boyfriends dog and try to let them out to go potty every hour and give them a treat after :)
“Taylor took such good care of our babies. She was available for a last minute booking, just days before our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive, loving, and capable person to care for our babies.”
About: As a proud dog and cat mom, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies! With over 5 years of pet care experience, I’ve developed a genuine love for animals and understand that every pet has its own personality, needs, and routine. I currently have a dog named Patience and a cat named Salem, so I’m familiar with caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, cleaning, and providing lots of love and attention, I enjoy making sure animals feel happy, safe, and comfortable. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and commitment to treating every pet like my own. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I prioritize communication, following instructions, and providing updates and pictures for peace of mind. Whether your pet loves outdoor adventures, playing with toys, or simply cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as a dog and cat mom! I work full-time in management, which has helped me develop strong time-management and organizational skills. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals, whether that’s going for walks, enjoying playtime, or simply providing companionship and attention. My availability varies depending on my work schedule, but I plan ahead to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I am happy to coordinate with pet parents to discuss their pets’ routines and determine the best arrangements. I understand the importance of consistency, especially when pets are away from their owners, and I always strive to make their experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. I believe in creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions when applicable, and any special requests provided by pet parents. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and do my best to keep their pet’s daily routine as consistent as possible. I also believe communication is key! I’m happy to send pictures, videos, and updates throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. Every animal is different, and I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and boundaries. My goal is to provide the same level of love, patience, and attention that I would want someone to give my own pets!

FAQs for House Sitting - Amity
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 286 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Amity. 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 Amity 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 Amity 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 Amity 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.
