“Exceptional, Professional Pet Care! My experience with Mark watching my dog was exceptional. From the start, any reservations I had about having someone new in the house melted away. Mark comes highly recommended for a reason—his professionalism, thoroughness, and genuine care are unmatched. He arrived prepared with a comprehensive intake document covering everything from feeding schedules and vet info to unique personality traits and emergency supplies. Communication was phenomenal; I received 37 pictures and consistent updates every few hours, allowing me to relax while away! Mark goes above and beyond as a guest in your home, bringing his own food, drinks, and blankets, and he even stayed through a power outage during 100-degree heat while promptly notifying me and reporting the issue to the power company. If you want peace of mind knowing your pet and home are in the absolute best hands, look no further!”
“I would highly recommend Michelle for your dog sitting needs. She was very professional and took excellent care of my dogs while I was on vacation. I felt very at ease while I was away and they were in her care. She took great care of my apartment, sent me tons of pictures and detailed updates daily, and was very easy to work with while planning all logistics. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Maegan was perfect for what we needed! Love, play, medication support, even some plant watering while we were away. Dogs loved her so much they kept going into our guest room looking for her after got home for our trip!”
“Chilali took great care of our 2 dogs, our cat, and our house over 2.5 weeks while we were gone internationally. All of our animals loved her and gave her plenty of snuggles. She was prompt with communications, updates, and pictures. She followed our instructions and asked questions for clarifications.”
“Gaby is a gem! She did SO well with our sweet senior pup, going above and beyond to give her lots of snuggles and attention, sending us frequent updates and cute photos, and taking great care of our house too. She cares deeply about animals and we are grateful she cares for ours too! She came for meet and greets, asked great questions, and noted down all the important details about our dog including medications etc.. We would strongly recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to have her back over to care for our dog again!”
“Zoe was amazing! Our German Shepherd is typically an anxious dog around new people but Zoe made him feel comfortable almost immediately. We felt very secure knowing that he was being well taken care of. Plus we got lots of pics and updates throughout our time away. We will definitely be having Zoe over again to watch Obi!”
“Blanca was fantastic! She took great care of both my dog and my parents' dog while we were away for the weekend. She kept the house clean, sent regular updates and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Victoria was a wonderful sitter for our 6-month old mini Australian Shepherd. She is very friendly and provided a lot of pictures and updates over the weekend while we were away. Our puppy was in great hands with Victoria. We highly recommend her!”
About: What sets me apart is my patience and understanding of different pet personalities. I have a Frenchie of my own who definitely keeps me on my toes, so I truly understand that every dog has their quirks. I’ve learned how to stay calm, consistent, and loving even on the challenging days. Because of that, I’m especially attentive, patient, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. Pet care is already a consistent and meaningful part of my daily routine. I care for my own Frenchie every day, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, and patience are second nature to me. I’m used to structuring my day around a dog’s needs, making sure they get attention, exercise, and consistency. Because of this, adding another pet into my routine feels natural, I’m already organized, dependable, and committed to giving animals the time and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide plenty of fresh water, and make sure they get appropriate exercise, playtime, and rest. I’m attentive to their body language and energy levels so I can adjust care to their needs. For dog walking, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes and harnesses, choosing safe walking routes, and keeping a steady pace that fits the dog’s age and energy level. I always make sure pets return home calm, happy, and well cared for.
“Nathalia is the best! This is my first experience on Rover and she did not disappoint! She kept my 2 month old puppy entertained which can be tough so i’m so grateful for that! She made sure to update me on how my puppy was doing and did everything I asked perfectly. So nice and would definetly have her house sit again!”
About: I have always been an animal lover, especially dogs and cats ever since I was little. I have taken care of many pets and have even contributed to rescuing dogs from Puerto Rico. I am currently going to school and working part-time. I have 1 in person class on Mondays and the rest are online and for work I usually work on Saturdays so I have plenty of time to take care of any pets on Tuesdays through Fridays and I can also do Sundays! I always care for a pet as they are my own. I am willing to keep each pets routine as consistent and make sure they aren’t too stressed out. In my home, my four pets have a clean environment, I always give them a lot of attention, play time, frequent exercise, and regular potty breaks. I can follow the owners instructions for feeding schedules, exercise, and any other special requirements that your pet might need. I always make sure that pets have fresh water and food, and also a comfortable place to rest. If I am caring for pets at a clients home, I make sure to always respect their space and maintain the pets daily routine. I will provide walks, playtime, feeding, litter box or yard cleanup, and a lots of loves and cuddles to the pets and make sure they are relaxed and comfortable while the owner is away. I will also send updates and pictures to keep the owners updated and let them know that their pets are happy and cared for!
“I feel so lucky I found Alexus to dogsit for us while away visiting family. I have two lab mixes that she quickly bonded with, even my timid dog who is very weary of strangers. They were snuggling and playing together within a day or two, I was (happily) shocked! One of our dogs got sick right before we had to leave on our trip, and Alexus took such good care of her and was always willing to go the extra mile for us when our dog needed to go to the vet while we were out of town. She was communicative and sent us daily photos and videos which I loved. She's the best!”
“Casey was truly an outstanding dog sitter!! She stayed at my house and watched my sweet old girl. Casey sent me daily pictures of Remie and her adorable dog, Moose sun bathing outside or taking naps. She was so sweet to even wash the bed sheets for me as I was returning home pretty late in the evening. Remie looked like she had a really fun time with Casey & Moose. Would HIGHLY recommend & book again with Casey. Thank you so much!!”
“Our dog and chickens were well cared for during her stay at our house! She provided a ton of photos and communication throughout the week and really went above and beyond. We returned to a clean home and happy animals. I cannot recommend Xochilt enough!”
About: I differentiate myself because I don't just walk dogs, I really focus on their well-being. I have patience with puppies and I can reinforce basic commands such as sitting, staying and walking without pulling the leash. I also have special care with older dogs, adapting the pace of the walk and being attentive to any need. I always send photos and updates so that the owner is calm I’m available on weekdays after 3 PM and fully available all day on weekends. I enjoy staying active, so I make time to give each pet the exercise, attention, and care they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment both in my home and in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions. I make sure pets get enough exercise, attention, and affection. I also monitor their behavior to ensure they are happy and stress-free, and I always keep owners updated with photos and messages.
About: I have cared for multiple dogs for multiple days, over holidays and weekends. I’m good to take them on long walks or chill with them on the couch, whatever they prefer. I am notorious for picking up lost dogs and returning them to their loving homes safely. I am currently a college student with classes not starting until later in the day, so I am looking for some work and care to give. I’m excellent at completing tasks you may need. If your pet is on a scheduled meal time, no need to fret. Or maybe they want to be let out at 7am sharp, I’ve got you covered. I can also water your plants while i’m at it or take out the trash.
“This was our first time using Jessica, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her, we felt comfortable and knew our dogs were in good hands. She was incredibly communicative throughout our trip and never made me feel like I was being a worry wart. She understood that leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful and was always kind, responsive, and reassuring. Jessica took excellent care of our dogs, especially our French Bulldog, who requires extra attention in the Utah heat. She clearly took her responsibilities seriously, made sure they had plenty of potty and outdoor breaks, cleaned up after them, and paid close attention to their needs. She also took great care of our home, brought in our packages, and left everything just as we had hoped. We truly lucked out finding Jessica. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy Rover sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 2,550 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arthur. 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 Arthur 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 Arthur 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 Arthur 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.
