“Kristy done amazing job with our 2 pups I was apprehensive I had never left my babies with a stranger. But she made me feel comfortable from the start. I can’t recommend.Kristy enough.”
“We’ve hired Louis to house sit and watch our cat three times now and he has gone above and beyond each time. He offered to drop by for an extra morning at no additional cost after our travel plans were extended and he even took out the track and brought in all our packages and mail during our absence. You can’t go wrong with Louis!”
About: I have had animals my whole life. I have worked in pet sitting and will always treat your furry baby as I treat my own. The best way only. I work 3 days a week so have plenty time on my hands to help with pet sitting, walking and caring for your furry babies. I live in a pet friendly 2 bedroom condo. I have a cat of my own, who absolutely orders other dogs and cats. We have a very loving home.
“Joe went above and beyond, hiking and chilling with our dog, taking him swimming and generally taking great care of him! I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a per sitter. I would be so happy for Joe to watch our pup the next time we need a sitter!”
About: Seeking new furry friends in 2026 and 2027! I grew up on a farm and have cared for dozens of dogs and cats, as well as donkeys, ponies, pigs, goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, turtles, salamanders, and fish. Now, I am a trained volunteer with the National Institute of Canine Service and Training, where I am a part-time raiser for service dogs in training. Because I work remotely, I love caring for others’ pets at their home or mine (fenced backyard). My husband Brian also works from home and is our official Player-In-Chief, guilty of stealing morning snuggles and sneaking backyard fetch sessions during the workday. My husband and I work remotely, which gives us the flexibility to provide high quality in-home pet sitting services. We appreciate a furry friend to break up our days and give us an excuse to get off-screen at quitting time. At your home: We will work from your house and explore your neighborhood in our off-time. Your pet will get stellar care from multiple loving humans! At our home: We have a 3-bedroom home and a fenced backyard, with easy access to multiple parks and open spaces for walks. Working from home gives me more flexibility to spend time with pets I am caring for, which I love!
About: I've taken care of all dogs since I was 4 years old. My favorite childhood memory was walking my dad's dogs every night with my friends. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets during the week and on weekends too. I will care for your pets as if they were my own, it is a great way to have companionship and walk outside on the many trails around my neighborhood.
About: I’m empathic and take care of animals with love and respect 🐾 I want to make sure everyone feels safe and content while leaving their fur babies with me In the mornings, afternoons and evenings I’m around animals and providing for their needs! It’s apart of my everyday and would like to help others! I’m attentive, loving, and kind hearted with animals and very understanding how they can be stressed while their owners are away, I’m always trying to help!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my entire life, I have a fenced in yard area, and would love to take your dog on daily walks if you permit it! I currently work from home, so I will be with them all day! I can take them out as much as they need to and provide them all the love and attention they need. I am comfortable with leaving them in or out of their cage/crate. They are invited to hang out on my bed, couch, anywhere they can fit!
“Highly recommend Stuart! He took great care of our dog while we were away for a long trip- lots of hiking, playing, and interacting with her. Great at sending updates our way during the stay. Our dog is sometimes shy with new people and she warmed up right away with Stuart.”
“We’re so happy we found Kaitlyn to stay with our three dogs over the holidays. She was a conscientious sitter and houseguest, and in the photo updates she sent, we could tell our dogs were happy and relaxed in her presence. She’ll be our first call next time we plan on going out of town!”
About: I love pets and I am happy to care for them while thier owners are away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your best friends behind when you have to leave town. I provide excellent care and comfort for your pets. I cared for my family dog, Maggie, for 10 years. She was a high energy blue heeler with Cushing's disease and big anxious heart. I also adore cats. I adopted a one-eyed senior cat with a bad hip, Sebastian, in 2020, and he lived out the rest of his days being loved and cared for by me. Now I have two younger cats, Ruthie and Atlas. I work from home. This is why house sitting works best for me. I can care for you pets constantly throughout the day as they need. I am very careful to keep pets safe around cars and other dogs. I understand how scary it can be to let someone else care for your pet and I will be dedicated to keeping them happy and safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 139 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ashcroft. 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 Ashcroft 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 Ashcroft 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 Ashcroft 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
