“Kathy is simply the best!!! I can tell from the photos she sent during our trip that our Critters absolutely adored her based on the smiles on their sweet faces and we agree that she is a rare gem! Not only did she take pawfect care of our Pack, our Nest was nicely cared for as well!! I especially appreciate that she is able to spend so much time with the Critters as Critter Sitting is her main gig! Highly recommend! We’ve already booked future dates and are all looking forward to seeing Kathy again! 🐾🐾💚”
About: Hi! 🤗 thanks for checking me out! I have a ton of experience with animals! I have experience in animal hospitals and doggy daycares alike 😃 Taking care of animals is where my heart is. I’ve always had multiple animals at a time. CPR and trauma experienced. I’m available all the time currently! Which means longer walks, play in the yard, or cuddles! I walk dogs full time so don’t be shy! I can’t watch anyone in my apartment, but I can come to your home or take them out and about! My attitude changes with each animal as I learn them. Most dogs I’m pretty playful with and have a lot of high energy play, some like to just sit next to a warm body on the couch and I can do that too.
“Victoria was great with our fur babies! She also answered right away when I was texting her during my vacation and sent pictures of my dogs everyday! Will use her service again!”
“5 Stars – Hands down the BEST dog sitter we've ever had! Carissa is an absolute gem! From our very first meet-and-greet, she was incredibly thorough—asking every important question and answering all of ours with patience and clarity. We instantly felt at ease leaving our 9-year-old Apollo in her care. She was always extremely responsive, easy to reach, and wonderfully accommodating to both Apollo's needs and ours (including bringing in mail and packages). Our home was left spotless and tidy. The daily updates were a highlight—multiple photos and messages each day showing Apollo happily running in the yard, playing indoors, getting tons of cuddles, and smiling with his chompers lol. Seeing how content and loved he was allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our family vacation without a single worry! When our flight was unexpectedly canceled and rescheduled (leaving us stuck in airports for an extra 30 hours), Carissa immediately and graciously agreed to stay an additional night. Knowing Apollo was in such capable, caring hands made a stressful travel day, much easier. Carissa's professionalism, genuine love for dogs, and thoughtful attention to detail made our trip better than we could have hoped. We've never felt more comfortable or at peace leaving our senior pup with anyone else. She is now our first and only choice for future sittings! Thank you, Carissa—you're phenomenal! ♥️”
“Jessica has watched our pets multiple times and she never ceases to amaze me. We have 3 pets and 2 are unhealthy, requiring multiple medications daily. Jessica handled all like a trooper! We were gone for a week and I was quite worried about our doodle as she has ongoing IBD and it has been extremely difficult treating it. Knowing stress makes it worse and raises her anxiety when I am not around, I was afraid she may have another flare! Jessica kept her happy as well as our other pets and kept them on their normal play and daily routines! She sent pictures and texts continuously daily and kept me up to date when she was leaving the house! Honestly, I can not say enough about her! She cares and treated our pets as her own. If you are looking for an amazing sitter, then please contact Jessica! You will not be disappointed. We have had some not so good sitters in the past and we will not have to look anymore as Jessica is the best!! Thank you again Jessica! Our pups love you and look forward to seeing you whenever we leave!!”

“Another awesome experience with Mckenzie! Not only did she hang out with my pets for a few hours while we were busy, but she went above and beyond scooping the litter box and making sure everyone was happy before she left. So grateful to her for taking such great care of my fur babies and always sending me updates. Thankful to have such a great pet sitter.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets of all ages for most of my life. I’m a bit of a homebody, so naturally I’ve become the person my family calls when they need someone they trust to pet sit and I love it! When your fur baby is with me, you can count on me to follow their routine and all the little things that make them happy. Whether that’s watching their favorite show, practicing a newly learned trick, playing together, getting some fresh air, or just relaxing with some company, I want their time with me to feel comfortable and familiar. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate special routines or additional care whenever possible. If your pet needs a meet & greet before their stay, we can absolutely schedule one so they have a chance to get comfortable with me first. My goal is simple: to give your pet plenty of love, attention, fun, and companionship while you’re away. They may be staying with me, but they’ll be treated like one of my family. ❤️ I work from home with a flexible schedule for walks and plenty of energy for play time and affection. We have a huge fenced in area for dogs to get in some exercise and let out the zoomies! My goal is to provide your pet with the best care possible, as if you never left! I want to make them feel comfortable and safe by following their daily feeding, walking and playtime schedules so they never lose their routines. I give every pet lots of love and affection, just as if they were my own ❤️
“I booked Kyla for house sitting my dog during her post-op recovery period from knee surgery. Kyla was great with Lucy, was caring, calm, affectionate, and Lucy definitely grew fond of her. She also followed all the care instructions i gave her, feeding her, giving her meds when needed, taking her on walks, and potty breaks whenever lucy needed even more often than her usual routine that i gave her. Kyla was also accommodating to changes in schedule when needed, would definitely book her again!”
“Winnie loved hanging out with Shirley. She prioritized play and walks while staying with her. She even washed and dried the sheets and remade the bed before we came home, it was a very kind gesture when we came home. Definitely would recommend her!”
“Lily did a wonderful job sitting for my Maize and a friend’s Cooper. They have two distinctly different personalities and Lily was able to make them both comfortable. She sent me pictures daily, which I really appreciated. She also left the house in perfect order. I will definitely hire her again. I highly recommend Lily!”
About: Hi, I’m Katie 👋🏻 Caring for pets isn’t just something I love; it’s what I do every single day! I currently work as a Supervisor at a luxury dog boarding/daycare resort, and previously as a Shift Leader for 2 years at another boarding/daycare kennel for dogs AND cats. I’ve had the privilege of working with pets of all ages, breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I’m also experienced with medication administration of all kinds, first aid, CPR, and following detailed care routines, so you can feel confident your pet’s needs will be taken seriously while you’re away. You can expect plenty of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and being well cared for. Have questions or a specific need for your pet? Feel free to send me a message! I’d love to learn more about your companion and see how I can help. Whenever I’m not at work, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs. On my days off, I have extra flexibility and can spend more one-on-one time with your companion, whether that means longer walks, extra playtime, or simply giving them ALL of the attention and companionship they deserve. Overnight stays are accepted on a case by case basis depending on my work schedule and the location of your home. During walks and drop-in visits, my focus is on safety, enrichment, quality of care, and making sure your pet gets the attention they need. Before each booking, I’ll get to know their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, medications (if applicable), and any behavioral quirks or preferences.
About: I have had my current dog for over a year and we are training to become a Therapy Dog Team. I previously volunteered at Capital Humane Society for 6 months as an Adoption Counselor. I am currently volunteering at Great Lakes Dog Rescue. Growing up I helped take care of the family dog. I took Veterinary Science at the Henry Doorly Zoo in high school and have a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Nutrition and Exercise Science. I have experience in training and know how to give dogs vaccinations. I am also happy to provide a basic behavioral profile for your dog for future sittings. I'm currently working part-time in a clinic and in school. Outside of that I have an open schedule and am happy to make time to take care of dogs. I live in an apartment and walk my dogs almost daily. More than happy to do dog introductions before sitting. If it’s a house sitting, more than happy to keep the dogs fairly separate and will take my dog to my apartment instead of leaving the dogs alone. I will never leave my dog and your dog alone in the house.
“Sarah was great with our pups and house sitting for us! She sent updates every day with pictures and ran our dogs for a long time every day! We will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I’ve been working at a dog boarding and daycare facility for the past 2 years, so caring for dogs has become something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs, from high energy dogs to the more laid back ones. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while they’re with me I am working part time at a dog boarding facility before I head out to the Grand Canyon National Park in October where I’ll be working at for the winter and looking for any open opportunities before I leave! I’m available for Mornings afternoons and nights to help work around your preferred schedule for your animal. With my experience I have gotten to learn how to take care of dogs with any type of personalities and needs. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and keep their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll follow their feeding, walking, and medication instructions, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they’re safe and happy. I’ll also treat your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would want for my own.
About: I am freshly post grad and I have lots of free time on my hands. I would love to walk and accompany your doggies as needed. I just finished college and have a lot of free time on my hands. I am available often to walk, drop in, or watch your pets! I strive to get to know your pets and their routines. I will walk, play, cuddle, feed, and care for your family as though they are my own!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 832 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atlas. 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 Atlas 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 Atlas 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 Atlas 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 Atlas. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
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.
