“My house sitting fell through just a few days before I went on a week-long trip. Ashlie swooped in at the last minute to save the day! Thanks to her flexibility and understanding of my situation, we arranged a meet and greet nearly within 24 hours. She was so easy to work with while I was frazzled with the last minute changes. While I was gone Ashlie sent pictures and responded quickly to questions and requests. I have no doubt Annie was comfortable and happy in her care. She was also very respectful to my space and belongings. I'd recommend Ashlie to anyone needing house sitting services, especially if you need someone with large dog experience.”
“Wow—we absolutely love Christina! From the very first message, her communication was outstanding. She took the time to come over for a meet-and-greet, and our furry family adored her immediately. Christina has such a calm, kind, and friendly presence, and we felt completely at ease welcoming her into our home. The daily photo updates were such a joy to receive and showed our crew happy, relaxed, and comfortably settled in all their favorite spots—exactly what every pet parent hopes for while traveling. Our home was left clean, tidy, and just as we had left it, which we truly appreciated. Christina is a gem, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and truly wonderful pet sitter. We’ve already booked her for another sit! Thank you Christina!”
“Jenna cared for our Ruby in our home when we vacationed— Ruby has never been without my husband or I and is anxious around other people. Jenna was amazing! She sent photos and videos of them cuddling, which made me feel so much more comfortable that we left Ruby in the perfect hands! She has also been able to give my husband and I some tips about Ruby’s behaviors that were spot on! If you need someone with a gentle loving touch who can get through to even the most fickle dog, hire this lovely woman. She also took great care of our home.”
“Michaelle checked in with me prior to the stay, arrived promptly and was gracious when we arrived home a little late. She took care of our dog's meal and medicine and sent a few updates and photos during the stay. I felt very comfortable with her and we'll definitely book with her again!”
“We just completed our first booking with Nianna and she was wonderful. Our pup Runner took to her right away and she is a tough sell. Our sweet pup had recent surgery and Nianna handled her situation with great care. We love Nianna and looking forward to another booking as it allows us to leave home with peace of mind.”
“Here’s a draft for your review: Hannah is an exceptional pet sitter! Our dog usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but Hannah’s calm and patient demeanor quickly put her at ease. She went above and beyond by providing regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. On top of taking great care of our pup, she also helped with our plants, which was a huge bonus. We’ve already booked her for our next trip and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you, Hannah!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Friends and family have trusted me for walks, feeding, playtime, and snuggles. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m dependable, patient, and love giving every pet the same care I give my own. I’m a full-time student with open blocks throughout the day and weekends free, making it easy for me to fit in walks, feedings, and quality time with your pets. I care for pets in their own homes so they feel safe and loved. I stick to their usual routines, give lots of playtime and cuddles, and make sure they’re happy while you’re away.
“Faith did a wonderful job taking care of my two pups, including one puppy who required extra care. She was very attentive. Both pups seemed happy, enjoyed her company, our home was kept clean too. We would definitely recommend her to any other pet parents!”
About: I have always been an animal lover and understand that pets are part of the family. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m a proud dog owner of Aslan, a Chihuahua-Poodle mix, and I know how important it is to provide patience, love, attention, and a safe environment. I’m currently open from Mon- Friday from 10am- 7pm. Whatever your dogs needs I’m there for it. I will be available most of days except the weekends in the morning. I have a fenced yard and I do allow dogs to go on the furniture and bed. I also have extra leashes and blankets if needed.
About: I have a Golden Retriever that is 6 years old and my cat who is 4 & mean the world to me. I’ve pet sat for friends and family throughout the years and enjoy spending time with them. I’ve gone through the puppy and kitten phase so I understand the chaos it entails. I’ve dealt with special food diets, reactive barking on walks, stranger anxiety etc. I have not had to give any meds other than regular flea & tick but I am more than willing to learn. I am a nursing student and am not queasy or new to the importance and safety it requires. I am more than happy to have day & overnight boarding in my home as long as they can get along well with others. I have a cat stroller & car seat as well if needed. I am a college student on summer break but have dog sat for family and friends in the past. I will try my best to accommodate to any special needs needed if required. I have a lot of patience & my dog (Rocky) is more than happy to keep a friend company. I love providing daily photos of pets to keep you updated. I’m currently at home for summer and often focus on the needs of my animals throughout the day. I do take my dog on daily walks when the pavement is not too hot. I can adjust to any routine necessary if clarified ahead of time. I do not keep my pets crated all day and allow them to free roam. I have a fenced in backyard and an energetic golden retriever to keep your pet company. I also have a separate bedroom for cats if needed. My cat also is very curious & loves other animals. I would prefer to know ahead of time if your pet gets along with cats to accommodate any needs and prevent accidents. Thank you!
“Emily was an incredible pet & house sitter! She was attentive to the pets needs and went above and beyond taking care of everything while we were away. We did not feel like we needed to check in because we knew the house was in such good hands. Very appreciative to her! We will definitely reach out for future out of town trips.”
“Rachel was amazing. She met with us on short notice and stayed with our dogs. We received messages and pictures. First time using Rover.com, highly recommend, and will definetly use the service again.”
“Moriah took such great care of my terrier, Junie. I was really nervous about having someone stay with him because he is very energetic and all around terrier in personality but Moriah was such a professional and I highly recommend her.”
“Esmerilda took excellent care of our girl who can be a little shy. She arrived exactly in time and sent frequent updates and pictures during the evening. We will definately contact Esmerilda when we need help again!”
About: I've assisted a vet with labors along with working at a dog resort with puppies and seniors including the proper care, naps, play times, etc. I am available any day of the week including weekends or holidays during the school year. I mainly dedicate my time studying as a UC Davis pre-vet major student, along with exploring Davis as I am a transfer student from UC Santa Cruz! Although, I am a full time student, I do have breaks in between my classes to provide services since I have a car! I am from the Bay Area, San Francisco which I also provide services back home! With many years of experience owning 5 dogs, I quickly recognize the pets' favorite spots in their home; therefore, I like to care for pets in their home environment.
About: Hi! I'm a UC Davis basketball player and lifelong animal lover. I grew up with dogs all of my life in Alaska, and since moving away for school, I really miss having a dog around. That's what inspired me to start pet sitting! I've also cared for cats—I shared one with my roommate last year—and I love spending time with animals of all personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. As a student-athlete in preseason, I have workouts in the mornings, but my afternoons are free, giving me plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and making sure your pet gets the attention they need. My schedule is consistent throughout the week, and I have weekends off, which makes me available for longer visits, overnight care, and even weekend boarding when needed. I'll always make sure your pet receives reliable, attentive care and sticks to their usual routine as much as possible. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and there are no other pets in my home, providing a calm, low stress environment. I'll follow your pet's routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they always feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for during their stay.
“Chrissy was an awesome house sitter for our energetic, 1-year-old golden/husky mix! She gave regular updates and kept him entertained. Would definitely book again and recommend!”
“Hayley took care of our dog at our home recently for an extended period. She provided excellent communication daily, including sending us pictures of Benji. She walked him, gave him his daily meds, and smothered him with love and attention. This was her second stay with Benji and we know he got excellent care. In addition to paying attention to Benji’s needs, she also took excellent care of our house and followed all instructions thoroughly. Our home was spotless when we returned, and she went the extra mile by washing sheets and towels. We highly recommend Haley for pet/home sitting!”
“Mehma spent the whole day with Lucy and took good care of her. She played with her a lot and hung out with her during the day until I came back. Lucy looked happy and pleased under her care!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Arroz
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,063 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arroz. 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 Arroz 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 Arroz 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 Arroz 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 Arroz. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
