“Lori was great. Our pup really seemed to like her. We had her stay overnight while we took a quick trip out of town and she made everything run smoothly. Gave updates while we were away and kept our home in order. We can’t thank you enough for the peace of mind while we were gone!”
“My rescue dog Jack loves Marcy. Everything was taken care of while I was gone. She kept in touch with me and gave me a video od Jack that made me smile. I will definitely call on her again.”
“Kambree was absolutely amazing with my dog! Updates every day, handled a complicated med schedule, took great care of my house while staying there, and was incredibly kind and flexible. Thank you so much!”
“Michelle did a great job with our pups! She was responsive and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was extremely respectful of our home! If it weren't for the rumpled sheets, she wouldn't have even known she was there! Highly recommend her for house sitting and any care your pups could need!”
“10/10 recommend!! Marisa stayed with our dog while we were on vacation and she stayed in contact every day! We came home to our house exactly as we left it. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“I can’t say enough about how great Patience was with the dogs! I’m sure they felt they were on their own vacation! We have dog with medication needs and she was totally on top of it! Sent pictures and video updates! I think the dogs only complaint is that she left when it was over!”
“I quite literally could not say enough wonderful things about my experience using Kristen to housesit for me and my fur babies while I was out of town. I am so particular about who I let watch them when I am gone and she exceeded ALL expectations.”
“She was absolutely fantastic. We were out of town for longer than we've been before, but we felt completely comfortable and knew our pets were happy and healthy.”
“Randy is wonderful! My dog was happy and my house was clean! You can’t ask for anymore than that. I don’t want to rave about him because then he will get too busy to sit for me ! Finley and I like Randy a lot!!”
“I was nervous about leaving my furbabies with a stranger but Kori reassured me and kept her word by sending me daily photos (sometimes several) of my dogs and was in constant contact the whole time. The house was as clean as I left it and she even washed her sheets and towels! The next time we go out of time I hope she's available.”
“It’s always daunting having to find someone take care of your fur babies. I was so happy to have had Lilly be so helpful in keeping our girls safe, loved and well taken care of while we were away. Will definitely be using her to help us out again. Thanks Lilly! ??”
“Jasmin is a dream pet sitter. She took excellent care of our pups and was extremely courteous and respectful staying in our house, helping out in various ways. You can tell how much she loves dogs and that she is a kind and thoughtful person. There is no question we will book with her again if she is available but I worry she will quickly become the most popular pet sitter on Rover.”
“Amanda was great with our three Husky’s. They are all blowing their coats and she did a great job keeping up with the flying fur. Our dogs were so calm and relaxed when we got home, she did a great job of keeping me updated and I didn’t have to worry about whether or not they were well cared for during our vacation!”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover with 5 years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking through multiple companies. Animals have always been a huge part of my life — I grew up helping care for and train my uncle’s service dogs, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand different dog personalities and needs. I also have a lot of experience with puppies and dogs that need extra care because I volunteer at an animal shelter. Through my experience I have gotten to know so many breeds and their special personalities, unique abilities, and where they may need some extra care. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s long walks, playtime, keeping them company, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. As a fun hobby, I also make homemade dog treats, so you can safely say I’m a little obsessed with dogs🥰 I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and personality to make the experience stress free for both of you! I am a college student so I have a lot of availability. My classes are mid day and only 2 hrs long. I only have class 2 days a week. In the summer and over winter break I have full availability. I feed them the recommended amount, give lots of cuddles, walks and all the love! I give them my full attention and follow the owners instructions.

FAQs for House Sitting - Atwater
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 630 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atwater. 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 Atwater 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 Atwater 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 Atwater 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.
