About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life as well as birds, rodents, reptiles, and fish. I am happy to prepare fresh or specialty foods as needed. Seniors and special needs pets as well. I'm not squeamish. Health care and Military background. This is my primary source of income. I adore pets and look forward to meeting with my clients and their humans daily. Fur feathers or fins, I love them all. Safety and security is always number one! I want to be sure you come home to a happy health pet in a secure home. Your pet will be provided with the supplied food, ample water and given time to exercise. They will be given as much attention and love as they would like and they will be returned safely in the designated area. Your pets and your home are always respected.
“Malia has been fantastic with our nervous shepherd, Selkie. I am very cautious about who I leave her with and Malia handled her fabulously, made sure she had the best time and keep us updated with photos the whole time we were away. It was super reassuring and so happy she could take care of her both times we have been away. Highly recommend and will 100% be calling upon her to pet sit for us in the future!”
About: I grew up taking care of my own farm animals, and I also took care of family friends’ animals while they were out of town I’m currently working from home remotely and part time at a bar. I have two dogs myself that I take care of at my house My dogs are very friendly and love playing with other dogs. I walk them daily in my large side yard and love on them inside
“Aunya watched my dog for me while I was out of town. My dog is an anxious rescue, and Aunya did so well with her! I’m glad I could have someone trustworthy and reliable to care for my fur baby.”
About: I’ve grown up around all different types of animals and have experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently own a spoiled pomeranian and 2 very needy cockatiels so I REALLY understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, give fresh water, take dogs on walks, play with them, administer basic medications if needed, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own and always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m currently a barista at Dutch Bros, so my work schedule changes from week to week. Because of that, I keep my availability updated and communicate clearly with pet parents to make sure I can give every pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. ❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I always take the time to follow your instructions to a T. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates secure, and always prioritize your pet’s safety on walks and during visits. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands!!
“Lauren did a wonderful job! The pictures she sent showed the dogs looking either Happy or Sleeping. The house looked so good when we walked in There wasn’t anything in the kitchen sink ( so nice to not have to load the dishwasher or do dishes when we got home). The bed was made and all of the bathroom towels were hung up neatly. I couldn’t even tell what ones were used. It’s such a relief to know the dogs are being taken care of, especially in their own home.. Lauren was very sweet and clearly seems to love dogs. We will definitely use her services again. She even cleaned the eye burgers out of the dogs eyes. We usually come home to the dogs eyes in a mess. We already have plans to use her in early February. We just have to figure out the dates we need to gone. A Happy Dog Owner! Carla Sewall”
“Nolan was wonderful! She made sure my dogs had exercise before the heat set in and was truthworthy with access to the home without someone being there. Truly appreciate her and will hire her again!”
About: I have had multiple dogs for decades. Dogs just seem to love me. I guess it's because they can tell I love them so much. I'm really good at taking care of things for your dog. I love walking them and playing. I don't even mind picking up the poop. I'm currently working part-time as a house cleaner. So I have flexibility in my schedule to take care of fur babies. Evenings and weekends are almost always open. I treat all dogs with kindness and respect. I would want others to take care of my babies that way. I always double check the food and water. If there are extra things needed, I make sure to get those done as well.
About: i’ve taken care of dogs just about all my life and has been a dream of mine to become a vet tech. i work in an animal hospital with all sorts of dogs and cats! please bring your animal here for lots of fun!! 🤩 i can’t wait to see your fur baby! i work full time at an animal hospital and i am available every weekend and some during the week depending on my schedule i will work around my schedule to watch your fur baby:) i have a good bit of experience in dogs and cats i own 5 pups if my own 3 are outside and 2 are inside i typically feed my dogs twice a day morning and evening as well as go on regular walks, sometime i will take them to the dam on the leash to stretch they’re legs and get some exercise and then come back home and have some more fun!
“Fantastic! Nice, sweet, sent pictures, left our house in wonderful condition. In our case specifically there were a few curve balls we had come up, but Lillian adjusted on the fly like a pro! 5 Stars. Would definitely recommend. We will use her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. From having turtles, cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish over the years I’ve learned so much about so many different animals! every animal is different just like humans so i strive to make sure they are comfortable with me and trust me how i am with them ! Many friends and family have asked me to watch or take care of their 4 legged babies, so i hope to keep doing it with yalls ! i’m currently working part-time, so that leaves me free from 1pm to anytime. My off days are Wednesday and Fridays, they don’t change! I’m willing to walk, sit, let them out to potty, just run to go check on them, and if they need some extra loving i’m there! Of course if you need anything else i’m here and very flexible! I live in an apartment, so i wouldn’t accept nightly stays at my place, but i’m more than capable over staying at yours ! i know most of the time animals feel more comfortable and safe in their own homes ! I do have a 80 pound dog who i take out 5-6 times a day when i get home, i take him out to the dog area and play with him for hours so he can get some sunshine on him, he’s crate and potty trained, and he LOVES to be cuddled up on anyone !
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals pretty much since I could walk. My family has had chickens, quail, pigs, horses, goats, guinea pigs, and of course dogs and cats! I’ve also worked as a ranch hand at a goat farm for 2+ years. Currently the only doggie I can call my own is my sweet Nala. She is a mini schnauzer who loves people and is quick to play with other pups. I currently work part time and attend college on Mondays and Wednesdays. So I can almost always sit or board Thursday-Saturday. I love walking and jogging so I’m always up for that. I’m currently in the midst of moving into an apartment with my best friend who also owns a friendly collie named Josie. And I have my sweet Nala. I will be able to board in the future but it will probably not be till September-October.
About: I love volunteering at the shelter, helping foster when needed, and I love always having my own two babies to take care of, which is such a joy inside and out! Helping neighbors, friends, and family has always been easy for me! I’m currently working part time, so playing with your pups will be no problem for me! I am available anytime every other week, and available anytime before 5 am and after 5 pm on the other weeks! I also have free weekends as well! I have my own two little guys who I treat like my babies. They sleep with me, walk with me, go with me almost everywhere, and I make sure not only are they taken care of but also my clients. I can do as needed, and provide what my pet parents need and want! I have no hesitation for any pets, I love them all!
About: I am a CMA, and have worked in 4 vets offices over the years. I can give medication (oral, topicals or shots). I have been a groomer for 9ish years (traveling to homes and in grooming shops). I also come packing a huge heart ready to love whatever babies you have. I have cared for them all and really to care for yours!💜 I recently had surgery in March but have been cleared for work. I am a mobile groomer for myself so my schedule is very flexible. Working with vets/in hospitals, I have learned the best way to keep your animals safe and happy is to stay in their own home. Cars and new environments can cause a lot of stress or anxiety. Drop in visits and house sitting keeps your pet in a safe and comfortable place without the exposure to others or their pets.

About: I’ve cared for birds, chickens, ducks, and dogs—there’s nothing I can’t handle! I’ve wanted to be a vet since Kindergarten, and pet sitting is the closest I’ve gotten so far. I am a college student so I might be out of your house for 2 hours or so but I’ll always let you know. I’m always available to watch the babies. I make sure to take the dogs out frequently and mostly love on the pups if I can’t cuddle your dog/dogs please don’t book me.

Dana was a fantastic dogsitter! She followed our instructions, was very communicative and went above and beyond with the care of Doc and Kate! She also took great care of our home. We were so impressed with Dana and we will absolutely book her again when we need care of our dogs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 280 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arab. 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 Arab 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 Arab 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 Arab 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arab. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
