“Kaylin took care of our big fluffy guy for a long weekend and we couldn’t have been happier! Leo was exercised to the fullest every day and we loved all the picture updates :) our home was in perfect condition when we came home. We will definitely be using Kaylin again in the future!”
“This is the second time we have had Kaya watch our poodle, she was very relaxed when we got home, and house was as we left better than we left it. Would have her watch Anya again.”
About: I work from home as a writer, which means lots of sitting around on the couch with my laptop, and plenty of lap room for cats and dogs, too! I have been pet-sitting for my friends very often in the last two years. I have always loved other people's pets and gravitated toward the critters whenever I'm at a friend's house who has pets. Several of my closest friends trust me with their animals every time they travel as they know that I am organized enough to keep track of multiple animals with different feeding needs and routines, giving pet meds, as well as making sure the animals have exercise, playtime, and lots of attention. I notice the little things and communicate effectively as needed with pet parents to make sure the cats and dogs I have cared for are safe and content. I have lived with animals all my life and I love being around them! As an author, I write on my phone or laptop, and it leaves me with lots of flexibility. I can adapt to any routine for dog walking, pet feeding, giving pets meds, playtime, and lots of snuggles and attention - work will never get in the way as there are no fixed times for my writing schedule. Because I work from home on my own terms, I can remain in the home with the pets continuously. I take frequent breaks to give the animals play time, lots of attention, any clean-up necessary, and of course feeding and any necessary meds that keep them on the routine they're used to. I am always present to keep an eye out and make sure they are safe and content.
“Emma did a great job with Chuck. She sent the perfect daily updates to keep us informed, and I know Chuck appreciated the daily walks, cuddles and new TV shows. We would definitely use her again, and would recommend her to others!”
“Amelia did a wonderful job taking care of all our pets! She sent pictures daily detailing the various adventures they were having. Our house is quite the menagerie. She juggled all of the instructions for the dog, the cats, the gecko, and the aquariums (both saltwater and freshwater). It was amazing to have one person who could handle all of it throughout the week instead of sending some to the kennel and organizing someone to swing by the house. We will definitely hire Amelia again!”
“Katherine is exceptional. Her communication is outstanding and it is clear she respects animals. She was great with my senior lab and very flexible with my booking. I recommend you book with her.”
“Jasmine is wonderful and our animals love her. They aren't even excited to see us when we return home because she cares for them so well. We love having her stay with them!”
“Sophia was outstanding. Great communication, plenty of happy pet pics and very reliable. Your loved one would be in great hands with her. I was very grateful for her and knowing she was here made my trip more enjoyable.”
About: We have both cared for animals growing up and pet sat for our friends and family many times over the years. Animals have stayed in our home and we have cared for pets in their home. I currently work full time with work from home days each week. My schedule varies but I am available mornings, evenings, and weekends for pet care. We do not currently have any pets and live in an apartment with an enclosed patio. We have cared for pets in our home and at the owners home. I am flexible to accomodate the needs of the owner/pet.
“Rebecca was so lovely! She was super communicative up to when she was coming over and kept us updated with pictures throughout her stay :) my dogs are super energetic and not always the easiest to deal with, but she was patient and kind with them. I’d highly recommend!”
“Dana was absolutely amazing with taking care of and loving our Henri! Henri tends to be a nervous whiner, and in all the pictures she consistently shared with us he was on walks, and happy, and looking like he made a new best friend with her dog. I will absolutely reach out to Dana again if we need any assistance with boarding Henri while we are gone. Thank you so much Dana for allowing us to enjoy our trip and see that our Henri was well taken care of and happy. 🩷”
“Absolutely hands down fantastic!!! My dogs have never had someone watch them that they didn’t know. They snuggled right up next to her and eased my worries quickly ! Highly recommend!!!!!”
“Lindsay is top notch in the pet sitting world, she went above and beyond my expectations. While gone for 4 days, I received frequent messages with photos of my pets. The day I returned , she sent a detailed note on what she had done before leaving, which was much appreciated. The house was spotless and I could see my dog and cat had been well taken care of during my time away. I highly recommend Lindsay for your pet care needs.”
About: I've lived with cats and dogs my entire life, and I love being around them. From St. Bernards to Boston Terriers, to Maine Coons to Cornish Rexes, there have been a wide variety of animal pals in my care. In addition to that, I've also done washing, nail trimming, and administered basic medications, both oral and topical. At the moment, I have open availability. Even if you need a night walk for your pets, I can do that too. All breeds welcome. I check locks, windows, and doors multiple times a visit to ensure that I have not left anything open or unlocked. I also try to be mindful of where the pets are, so they do not have the chance to escape.
“Ali’s communication is top notch! She responds in a timely manner, is very friendly, and you can tell she takes it seriously. I’m so happy we found her to watch our 4 dogs while we had to stay in the hospital for a week. After our meet and greet we knew we could have time away from home without stressing if everything was getting done. She provided daily updates and pictures, our dogs clearly enjoyed her company. Will definitely book with her again.”
About: Throughout my childhood, I grew up with dogs. While I do not currently have a dog, I take care of my parents’ dog and three cats when they are out of town. I am also a cat mom to a lil kitten named Merlin. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets! Whether it’s taking them on walks, feeding them, or just hanging out with them while you are gone. I love animals so much, I decided to get a degree in the conservation of them! I am currently in between jobs meaning that I can care for your pets anytime! Whether you need me weekdays, weekends or even if you are going on a trip, I am very flexible! While I am not comfortable hosting pets in my home at this time with a kitten, I am more than happy to walk dogs, do day visits or pet sitting while you are gone on a trip.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arrowhead
Malia did a wonderful job caring for my dog and cat while away on a nine day trip! She sent many photos and videos of them relaxing and enjoying her company. They have some food and medicine requirements, and she made sure they were taken care off. It was such a relief knowing they were in kind and competent hands, while I was away. I would highly recommend her, and will seek her help in the future!
Alex was FANTASTIC! I had to leave town a few days after my senior dog had a leg amputation and I was super nervous to not be with her. Alex was super communicative and was able to give her the abundance of meds and care she needed. I absolutely recommend him and wholeheartedly trust him with my pups!
Hailey stayed with our Westie Minnie when we were out of town and we appreciate the great job, she did keeping us informed of how things were going, and we appreciated she washed anything she used, and we barely could tell someone had been here. We will definitely ask her back:)
Nicole was excellent for housesitting and watching our dog while we were away. She is extremely friendly and caring. She made it easy for pre-booking meet and greet, provided plenty of lovely updates, and made us feel very comfortable being away. We hope our dog gets to spend more time with her again soon.
Liza did such a great job. She was so great with communication and sent lots of photos. I came back to extremely happy dogs. She also left the house just like I left it, couldn’t even tell someone had been here. The dogs already want to know when she will come stay next. Can’t recommend enough!
We love Courtney! We will use her until she begs us to stop 😂 She is reliable, kind, professional, and soooo good with our gigantic lap dogs. We took a 10 day trip overseas and didn’t have to worry about our babies at all. They are always in good hands with her.
We could not be happier with the wonderful care provided for our four dogs and cat! She was extremely responsive throughout the stay, providing regular updates and great pictures that gave us total peace of mind while away. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her services!

The average cost of House Sitting in Arrowhead is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $94 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Arrowhead 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 Arrowhead 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 Arrowhead 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
