“Kristen did a great job looking after our girl. She would check in with me and let us know how our dog was doing. And if she had any additional questions, she would also reach out to me. I would hire her again in the future.”

“Five stars isn’t enough — Preston is the real deal. As professional dog daycare and boarding operators, we have extremely high standards for who we trust with our animals and our home. Preston didn’t just meet those standards — he obliterated them. Our four boys were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved when we got home. The house was spotless. And Preston had already handled everything. Here’s what truly set him apart: he noticed an ear infection developing in one of our dogs — something that requires a practiced, attentive eye — arranged transportation to and from the vet, cleaned the ear, and administered the post-visit medication. All on his own. That’s not just good pet sitting. That’s genuine expertise and real initiative. We’ve been in the pet care industry. We know what great care looks like. Preston is the rare kind of sitter you hope exists but rarely find on any platform. If you’re on the fence about booking him — stop deliberating. Book Preston. We won’t use anyone else.”

About: Hello! My name is Cynthia! I have been taking care of animals ever since I was a young child, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ranging from small breeds like Yorkies to large breeds such as German Shepard and Mastiffs and several in between like Spaniels and Golden Retrievers. I am comfortable handling different energy levels, personalities, and care needs. Additionally, I have experience in caring for cats and am comfortable with feeding, litter box maintenance, and playtime with feline friends. I am detail-oriented and comfortable following specific care instructions and administering medication, as I know every pet requires a unique approach and care. While your pet is in my care, I will send photos and messages daily so you can have peace of mind while you are away! Pet care fits well into my weekly routine! I work weekdays from 8:00am to 5:30pm, so I can provide morning and evening walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention before and after work. If your home does not have a dog door, I'm happy to stop by during my lunch break for a midday potty break and walk to help keep your dog's routine as normal as possible. Additionally, I'm comfortable administering oral medications and other routine medications as instructed, and I'm happy to follow any special care needs your pet may have. If you're only looking for a dog walker, I'm available for evening walks on weekdays, making it a great option for those who work third shift or have late work hours. On weekends, I have the flexibility to provide walks throughout the day to fit your pet's schedule and your needs. For house sitting, I stay overnight in my clients' homes so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Since I live in an apartment that does not allow animals, I am unable to host pets in my own home. Whether I'm caring for dogs or cats, I'll make sure they receive personalized care, lots of affection, and daily updates with photos so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent care while you're away. Whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or simply giving them companionship, I'll make sure they receive the individualized attention they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, I respect both your pet's routine and your home. I'll ensure doors, gates, and fences are secure, keep your home tidy, and provide regular daily updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to help your pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment while giving you peace of mind that they're in caring, reliable hands.

About: I’m currently a college student, but I only have to be on campus two days a week for a few hours, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’ve completed multiple pet- and house-sitting jobs for friends, family, and people who were referred to me through them. My stays have ranged from a few days to a full week. I have experience caring for small dogs, large dogs, and cats, and I’m comfortable learning and following each pet’s individual routine. I also have two pugs of my own who I regularly care for while my mom is at work and I’m doing my classes from home. Taking care of my own dogs has given me plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I also have experience caring for both indoor and outdoor houseplants, so I’m happy to help keep your plants and home cared for while you’re away. Over time, I’ve found a special love for caring for animals while their families are away. I know that being away from their family and normal routine can be stressful for pets, and it makes me genuinely happy to be there to give them comfort and attention. I love being able to help them feel safe, happy, and cared for until their family comes home. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give every pet the same patience, love, and care that I would want someone to give my own. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I have two classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with a break between them that gives me time to check on pets if needed. I also currently work as a host about 2–3 days a week, although with school starting I may reduce that to around 2 days a week. I’m careful about balancing my work and school schedule so that I can still be available for the pets I’m caring for. There will never be a day where my school and work schedule keeps me away for an extended period of time without being able to check on your pets. I want you to feel confident that your pets will receive the attention, care, and companionship they need throughout your time away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get their walks and exercise, and receive plenty of playtime, attention, and companionship. I also understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow specific instructions and routines that help them feel comfortable while their family is away. For house sitting, I treat my client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m happy to bring in mail, care for indoor and outdoor plants, and keep the home clean and tidy while I’m there. My biggest goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pets and their owners. I want pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home until their family returns. I am no stranger to asking questions when instructions are unclear or if I am unsure about something while house-sitting

About: I have loads of experience! From fostering dogs to being a licensed vet tech of 10 years!!! I decided I wanted a different direction and starting my own business and pet sit on the side. I'm loving every second of it! I work from home so taking care of your baby will fit right into my schedule. I can do whatever is needed and more! Just ask! I prefer to care for animals in their homes where they are comfortable, but if they are good with other dogs/peope/ and cats they can come to mine. I have 6bdogs ranging from puppy to senior and 5 cats. They all get along well with other dogs and cats but if one was to join our pack they would have to do the same.

One of our dogs is a little apprehensive with new people and he did a great job giving him time to warm up. He was also a wonderful house guest - left everything very clean, helped by watering the plants, taking out the trash, etc. We will definitely book with him again!”

We definitely have a house full and Emma handled everything professionally and treated our dogs like her own. She was very communicative and set pictures often. The house was tidy when we got back and all of our pets where well taken care of. We would 💯 hire Emma again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Arline

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 685 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arline. 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 Arline 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 Arline 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 Arline 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 Arline. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
