“Kyelene got a 5 star rating from our household! The girls, (2 dogs and a cat) were in very good hands. After meeting Kyelene, I knew our dogs would be in very good hands. We got pictures sent to us which was nice. The house was as clean as I left it which I appreciated. I would highly recommend Kyelene for your houesitting/dogsitting needs.”
“Angelina watched our two big dogs and provided housesitting services for two weeks. She was very communicative and we were very happy with how she cared for the dogs insent pictures and updates every day. I would be very comfortable choosing Angelina again and would recommend her to others!”
“Mary was awesome!! This was my first time ever using this app or anything like this to watch my dogs. The experience was so great that this is the only way I will do it going forward and it will be Mary that I use. I loved the fact that she would send me pics so I could see them having fun! Thank you Mary you did an awesome job!!!”
“Kary was so great with our baby Milo. She sent pics and videos daily and we could tell he was super happy. It’s hard to find someone with such good energy and a love for dogs and Kary was fantastic.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my family since I was 8 years old and I began dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and family when I was 12. I completed animal behavior training at Kansas Humane Society where I volunteered as a dog walker, played with a wide array of rescue dogs of all sizes and personalities, and also snuggled rescue cats and kittens. I take special interest in understanding dog training and behavior and read and watch videos on these topics often. I'm the type of person at the social gathering that lingers around the dog or cat and pets them as long as they let me. I currently work a normal 8am-5pm office job with a lunch break midday which I can use for a visit. I am completely available on weekends. I am happy to do overnight stays if needed. I have cats in my home and currently do not have a fence so I don't offer in home boarding for dogs. I am extremely attentive and detail oriented. I maintain tidy homes and happy pets. I truly enjoy cuddling and playing so your furry friends are in good hands with me. I am experienced with a wide variety of dispositions and will tailor my care depending on the pets needs.
“Jamie did a terrific job for us, she was responsive and took excellent care of our dogs. During our time away she kept us informed of how the dogs were doing along with a few pictures. Great experience and would book again. Thank you.”
“Rachael went above and beyond to help my dog in every way. He’s a high anxiety boy and very shy. She took her time with him, gave him lots of care, and cleaned up after he had an accident. She even stayed an extra night late to house sit because my flight was delayed. I highly recommend her!”
“Heather is amazing! She sent enough pictures to keep my mind at ease but not so many that I was disrupted at work. So I knew my baby boy was safe and happy! And when my husband and I got home, we were surprised with a painting she made with Max. 10 out of 5, I will definitely be using Heather for all of my out of town trips!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five stars aren’t nearly enough for Sheryl! Leaving beloved pets with someone new can feel nerve-wracking, but Sheryl quickly put me at ease. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for my dogs gave me complete confidence. She has such a servant’s heart and treats my pups with tenderness and love. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“I can’t begin to express my praise for Tillie. I was so impressed the first time we met when she came to my home to meet my dog, Aspen, and I - she arrived on time, with a notebook and pen to take notes, asked thoughtful questions about Aspen’s care and my expectations, and she was so kind and personable. Aspen loved her right away as well. Tillie kept me frequently updated with pictures of Aspen, checked in with me, asked questions, and when I returned home Aspen was at ease. I really appreciated all of the kindness, care, and patience Tillie gave Aspen (and myself!). We adore Tillie and felt very comfortable inviting her into our home. We are looking forward to booking with Tillie again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for a lot of my life my own, relatives and neighbors! I love animals and think they need a lot of attention and care! I help care for two dogs everyday, a German Shepard and a Dashund! I love them a lot and love taking them on walks and runs. I can take them on walks, feed them, play with them and spend a lot of time playing with them and giving them the attention they need.
About: I’ve been around almost every kind of dog in my life, from little small wiener dogs to Great Danes and pits. I enjoy dogs with a passion, I truly love their loyalty towards their owner. No matter how hard your day is once you come home it’s the best greeting you’ll ever get. Can’t say that about to many things nor people now can you. So I’m getting ready to head to the airforce very soon and I need to find a way to have money coming in before I leave. I thought what’s the best way to do that and the first thing that came to mind was my dogs. So I want to provide others with a solid person to trust around their loved ones no matter what. So i got a small morkie mix as the little brother and an American bully for the big brother. We establish walks,food,water is given 24/7,treats when a task or a good dog is listening. The most important of all, attention and love.
“Julie did so good with our three fur babies! We had a bad Rover experience in the past and we were hesitant to try again but she made all our worries go away. She sent updates with the cutest pictures and we will definitely be using her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover but I needed a way to find a house sitter that knew what they were doing. I booked Arianna because she had good reviews, available for the booking, and cheaper. I have 4 dogs so I needed someone with a lower “additional dog fee”. She watched them about 10 days. When returning home, I didn’t find any bathroom accidents or tore up furniture. She fed them twice a day and gave my pit an allergy pill each day. I did not require any dog walking. When going out of town, I will use her again.”
“Faith is absolutely wonderful!! My two dogs and cat adore her. That is saying a lot as one of my dogs is extremely anxious and scared of almost everyone. She takes excellent care of our fur babies. My only regret is she is leaving town this fall.”
About: I have taken care of small, medium, and large dogs! I have also taken care of cats! I have had animals in my home for as long as I can remember. I love being playful with them and try to always keep them feeling loved and entertained! I’m very active and love walks. I’m currently working part-time and am available Mondays after 4pm, Tuesdays and Wednesdays after 5pm, Thursdays after 3:30, all day Friday, and some weekends depending on travel! My schedule also depends on traveling due to family being out of town! I let them out as frequently as I can and I do love taking the time to play with them! They deserve to burn off their energy! When I come to your home I will leave it better than I found and make sure to follow the routine that you request to the best of my abilities! I want to make you and your pet feel safest and most comfortable during the service!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for neighbors, family, and others for a while and have had dogs my whole life. I absolutely love them! I’m currently a student at WSU and I have a pretty tight schedule Monday-Thursday but I would absolutely be willing to work around what I can. I am free most weekend. I am very clean and tidy and will make sure not to leave a mess anywhere! I can crate your dog if necessary and should have little to no issues!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Andover
Anna was amazing with our dogs! We could tell instantly that they liked her and were very comfortable with her when they met. We felt assured they were going to be in good hands. She sent us updates at least once daily how they were doing and her communication was thorough and very appreciated. I would trust her to stay with them again and 100% would recommend her during the summer when she's home from college or during long school breaks.
We are very thankful to have been referred to Caroline! Our little Skeeter is a bit anxious with strangers, but he quickly became familiar and even cuddled with Caroline. We have found our go-to. Caroline is professional, thoughtful, and has a great work ethic on top of having a good feel for our dog.

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 Andover 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 Andover 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 Andover 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.
