“Absolutely hands down the best care we could have asked for. The pups were treated like their own by Mai and Jonathan. Daily updates and photos of the dogs were sent. And they cleaned the house before they left. Which was absolutely not necessary but much appreciated. Highly recommend them, and will definitely use them in the future.”
About: I'm a sahm so I have flexible hours! I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, including a senior dog. I have tons of experience with puppies, kittens and administration of medication. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible. I do go to the gym everyday so I would need to be able to do that. My son, he's 7would be with me during the week but if it was overnights for the weekend he would not. I do not care for pets in my own home it would need to be your home. I'm happy to house sit and take them on walks.
About: I’ve cared for dogs through my own experience as a dog owner, and I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m attentive to their needs, enjoy spending time with them, and will make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, food, and attention. I’m also happy to follow each pet parent’s specific routines and instructions so your dog can feel at home while you’re away. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their space clean and secure, and make sure they receive attentive, loving care while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly care about getting to know each pet as an individual. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I want them to feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to give your pets the extra attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I also love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. My goal is simple: for your pets to have a fun, comfortable experience and for you to feel completely confident knowing they’re being cared for. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m dependable, organized, and enjoy making time to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and cuddles into my schedule while following each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I plan ahead so I can be consistent and present during each visit, rather than rushing through care. I also make time to send pet parents updates and photos, helping you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I like to think of pet sitting as stepping into a pet’s world without disrupting it. I pay attention to the small details—their favorite spot to nap, the sound they make when they want attention, the toys they ignore, and the routines that help them feel at ease. My goal is to make your absence feel as uneventful as possible for them. During each visit, I’ll follow your instructions carefully while adding plenty of patience, playtime, affection, walks, meals, fresh water, litter box care, and whatever else your pet needs. I won’t treat the visit like a quick checklist; I’ll take the time to notice how your pet is doing and respond to their personality and mood. I’ll also leave your home even better than I found it and keep you updated with thoughtful messages and photos—not just proof that I stopped by, but little glimpses of how your pet is spending their day.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve been watching my friends and my friends families animals for a few years now while they vacation or anything comes up. I’ve done the walking, the repetitive throws back and forth, and the quick check in during a storm just to make sure they haven’t chewed the house to pieces. I’m naturally an early bird so checking in earlier then my normal 6-3ish work schedule isn’t an issue and anytime after I’m usually free I have a fenced in run area for free running if they’d like. My porch is screened in so they can have the outside time without getting out.
“Mariah was absolutely wonderful! She loved our pups as if they were her own. Loved the daily picture updates. She took wonderful care them and our home. Highly, highly recommend her!! Will definitely rebook.”
About: I’ve taken care of 6+ litters of puppies, the largest being 10 pups! I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes from bearded dragons to Great Danes! I currently work part time so i have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house sit whenever I’m not booked, and quick visits will usually be around 8 am and 8 pm. Pet care is entirely up to the owners! If there are specific instructions to pet care let me know and I’ll do my best to cater to your pets needs. I can crate pets if preferred as well.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about nine or 10 years old, less in the caregiver since until I was an adult, I now have two dogs and love them dearly. I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.
“Leah is absolutely amazing!! She is so kind and very thoughtful. She took such great care of our pets and our house while we were gone. 100% plan on rebooking with her for our next trip!!”
About: I help care for the family pets including, a dog, cat, two guinea pigs, and chickens. Growing up around many animals has allowed me to experience the affection and different personalities of different animals. I’m in search of a job currently so I have plenty of time to take care of any pets. On weekdays during the morning and nights! Feel free to text and ask about afternoons or weekends. I learned from a young age how to care for pets. Providing, food, water, outside time, playtime, and affection. I often love taking my dog out on walks/trails to get him out of the house.
About: I have been raised around animals my whole life. I love all kinds of animals and I treat my animals like my babies. I would love to watch your fur babies. I have two kids ages eight and seven that love animals as well. If I stay at your house they will be coming with me. I will have plenty of time to care for animals and give them lots of walks and love ❤️ I work a part time job from 4 pm to 8 pm and should not conflict with taking care of fur babies. I currently have a fenced in yard and we have a good sized home that an animal could stay. I would to host your furbaby.
“Great with my dogs, cats, and lizards!! Yes, lizards! Alicia sent photos and videos every day several times a day while we took our kids to Chicago for the long weekend. We booked house sitting, and boy, she really did house sit! She even vacuumed, did dishes, and took out the trash for us. Really appreciate her and WILL be booking again.”
“Kelly came in a very difficult time for us when we had a family emergency. Is answered immediately when we needed her and took great care of our dog and home. Kelly is truly special and I will absolutely use her again. Thank you Kelly!”
“She was wonderful! She was very attentive to our sweet Lola. Lola can be a handful sometimes because she’s very needy and Velcro like. She wants to be around you all the time and I know that can get bothersome and she took it like a champ. We came home and the place looked great and Lola was happy. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my combination of hands on vet tech experience and personal experience caring for a special needs dog of my own. This gives me a well rounded understanding of both medical awareness and everyday pet comfort. I’m confident handling everything from routine care to recognizing when something isn’t quite right, and I stay calm in stressful situations. I also know how important patience, consistency, and gentle handling are, especially for pets that need a little extra support or have specific health requirements. I am a free bird as I just recently separated from the United States Navy. So my schedule is as open as open can be! Any day and time of the week you need me I am here! I care for every pet as if they were my own, focusing first on safety, comfort, and consistency in their routine. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions exactly as given so the pet stays in a familiar environment with minimal disruption. I keep their feeding, walking, medication, and play schedules consistent, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can quickly notice any changes in appetite, mood, or health. With my vet tech experience, I’m confident in recognizing signs of stress or illness and responding appropriately, including seeking veterinary care if needed. I’m also especially mindful of pets with special needs, senior pets, or puppies who require extra supervision, patience, and gentle handling. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-safe environment that is calm and structured. I supervise interactions at all times, ensure pets are never put in unsafe situations, and provide plenty of enrichment, attention, and comfort so they feel secure and cared for.
About: I am a huge animal lover I personally have a lot of experience with different types of animals. For example dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, guineas, pigs, cows, goats and a tortoise. I’m always looking to learn and grow my animal knowledge. I will always try my best to provide amazing care and love to your animals, I am a hairstylist and my schedule depends on the week. But my schedule is usually pretty accommodating to any pets needs. I don’t tend to work late hours. I will love and care for your animals like they are my own. I will play with them, feed them, water them and respect them. I would rather watch your animals in your home because of my animals.
“Amanda was great! I was worried about my dog because she’s older. But she was very well taken care of and Amanda made sure Reese’s was in good hands! I will definitely rebook with her.”
“James did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. He sent me pics and videos every day so I could see how my boys were doing. The house was spotless and so was the litter box. Highly recommend! And I would definitely re-hire.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Atco
Alicia is the best! She has been our go-to cat sitter for my senior kitties over the past few years. It is so comforting to know that they are in such caring hands while we are away from them. One of my kitties has some special needs and she takes such great care of him. She keeps us well informed during her stay with photos and texts of their escapades. I highly recommend Alicia for any cat-sitting needs you may have.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,680 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atco. 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 Atco 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 Atco 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 Atco 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!

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.

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.
