“Nancy was absolutely amazing!! She spent quality time with Millie and kept me posted throughout the sitting on how Millie was doing. She went above and beyond to accommodate our sitting needs and last minute booking. I was able to enjoy my trip with absolutely no worries!!! 🥰 Millie and I have definitely made a great friend and will ask Nancy to care for Millie many more times!! Thank you so much for loving our Millie as much as we do !! 💞”
“Christina was excellent! She took genuine loving care of our three pups and cat. She was on time, with prompt clear communication, nice updates with pics of the “herd” and activities. We would definitely use Christina again when the need arises. High recommend you do too!”
About: I have been taking care of friends and family members dogs for about 8 years! I love animal especially dogs both big and small. I will do my best to meet any requirements you have for your animal to ensure that they keep their schedule! I currently am doing my clinical rotations for pharmacy school. Therefore I can take care of the dog in the morning and then once I get off I am free the rest of the night! I have a neighborhood to walk dogs throughout as well as experience with crates if needed. I have 3 dogs here that are pet friendly and can keep your animal company!
“Plachette is amazing. She did a fantastic job staying at our house for a week and watching our bernedoodle, Stormy. They really bonded and I can’t wait for her to watch Stormy again, as I know she will have the best care possible.”
“Lauren took amazing care of my pets and always kept me updated! Loved receiving photos of my babies while I was gone. She truly listened to me about their little quirks, medications, and what works best for them while we are gone and really followed through! Super easy to talk to and get a hold of! Would 100% refer and will be booking again”
About: I live in Scottdale but I’m very familiar with ALL surrounding areas. I’m a homemaker, so I’m available practically any time to come offer care to your furry (or not so furry!) loved ones! Currently we have 2 dogs, a purebred 32lb female Siberian Husky & a Designer Breed 15lb female Pomsky. They are both crate trained & house trained. Both are fully registered ESA (Emotional Support Animals) & I take that very seriously as to their training & how exactly I want them to behave. I recently lost my female German Shepherd; & a year prior my male Siberian Husky. My male Siberian was epileptic so I’m experienced in offering meds and know that having them on hand & on time IS A MUST for things of this nature! My shepherd was very elderly (about 14) & required a lot of extra love, care & attention also. So I am also compassionate about animals that need some extra loving. *I offer very basic kitty care. I cannot host cats in my home due to the prey drive of my husky, sometimes she’s ok with them, other times not. *I’ll do feedings for lizards as I have had a few bearded dragons myself as well so I’m knowledgeable here also. (But under no circumstances ask me to care for your snake, or your spider!) ***I offer potty breaks, walks, playtime, feed & water breaks, treat time, medication administration ALL in my standard fee. Anything else, just ask! I’m very flexible & willing to work out most things if we can come to an agreement suitable for both sides. Can’t wait to meet the furry parts of your family.🐾 Pretty much available whenever. I can usually work out something that’s suitable if I am not. Reach out with any questions! We can almost always work out an agreement. No fence but my yard is safe, multiple leashes, 2 porches, in a friendly community for walks. Small home but very lovable and friendly and cozy. My dogs are crate trained but good with other dogs, socialized, UTD on shots, but my girls are not spayed so if you have a male I allow ONLY altered ones at this time.

“Beatriz was very attentive and caring with our dog Daisy. She warmed up to her in no time! Beatriz also went above and beyond in caring for our house and waiting for packages. I would gladly rebook her if she is available next time we are on a trip!”

“Jessika was fantastic with our senior papillon, Ziggy, during a in-home stay over a long weekend. She did a meet and greet before our trip and Ziggy took an instant liking to her. She is excellent with animals. She gave us regular updates, including many pictures and videos (highlighted by a “We are Penn State” cheer). We were able to enjoy our vacation worry free knowing our dog was in great hands with Jessika. Bonus, I think she left the house even cleaner than how we left it for her!”
“Kaylee was fantastic and made going away a breeze! She was responsive, professional, and very competent. She gave us regular updates and pictures which was great. I 10/10 recommend her and will definitely go to her first when we need someone we can trust with our pups.”
“Maria is an amazing dog sitter! She took the time to learn Millie's routine and is so knowledgeable about dogs. It's clear she has a passion for taking care of animals. Great communication as well. She's the best!”
“Kiara was very accommodating to my crazy schedule and sat with Winston through the fireworks. I sincerely appreciate her willingness to sacrifice her own holiday plans to hangout with winston. A very great dog sitter that I will definitely use again!”
“Ally stepped in last minute when our scheduled sitter got sick. The dogs were so comfortable with her and she made the situation a lot less stressful. She snuggled our pups, provided photo updates, and was able to stay with them late into the afternoon which helped us out tremendously. So grateful!”
“Moon was absolutely amazing. We have 5 dogs and a cat. She took great care of our pets and made sure that they had plenty of play time, cuddle time, and of course, treats! She always sent plenty of photos every day and communicated with us throughout our vacation. All of our pets took to her right away and they were very happy and healthy when we returned home from our trip. We will definitely be using Moo. On our next trip.”
“Alicia is phenomenal! Our pups (two Great Danes, and a senior Boston Terrier) were so well cared for under her watch. We have very needy dogs, and struggle to find people who are willing to give them around the clock attention, but Alicia went above and beyond to make sure they were happy. We came home to a clean house and very happy pups. Cannot give a higher recommendation for Alicia!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Armbrust
Nancy was exceptional. We have a very unique and rigid routine with our dog due to her history, which requires a sitter to remain in our home overnight with limited time out of the home. We have had varying experiences with sitters following her care guidance and took a chance on Nancy after a wonderful meet and greet. Nancy was extremely attentive to all the details of her stay and maintained our routines beautifully. Kova was cared for just as well as she would have been if we were home. Being away for a week and trusting another person to care for your pets can be a challenge, and Nancy was not hesitant to step in to meet this challenge head on. She communicated with us each day and let us know if Kova was feeling unwell or if she had any questions about our care. She quelled our anxieties by keeping us informed of changes. She was flexible as needed and we had no concerns about our girls wellbeing. Nancy cares for our cat as well, who is relatively shy but warmed up quickly! Nancy left our home clean, washed up bedding despite being our guest, and brought in all our mail and deliveries. I would recommend anyone who needs an attentive sitter to meet with Nancy. We will happily have her back again!
Jessica was great! She watched our 2 year old dog and two cats while we were gone for 6 days. She gave us routine updates of how our animals were doing and sent plenty of pictures which was greatly appreciated. She left the house clean and definitely put our minds at ease while we were away. We would absolutely use her services again the next time we go away.

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 Armbrust 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 Armbrust 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 Armbrust 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!

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 .

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.
