“Can’t say enough good things about Sarah! Loved her interaction with my fur babies, loved her desire to learn about my dogs and ask questions, love the pictures and communication….. and absolutely love her professionalism . I believe Sarah will succeed at anything she chooses to do because of her great work ethic. Will definitely use her again!”
“This is the 2nd time I have used Kristen and I’m so happy that I found here. My pups are my babies and I hate leaving them but she made me feel okay about leaving them. She sent me check in photos daily and made sure to follow our schedule. Thank you Kristen ❤️”
“Lena is amazing. Kind, responsible, responsive, exact, caring, gentle, honest, capable, safe…all the characteristics you need and want in a furbaby sitter. She stayed in my home with my furchild, Summer, sent pictures and videos often, followed my detailed, and particular, directions exactly, and most importantly, Summer loves her!! Lena made my time away from Summer bearable. Will request Lena again soon, and without reservation.”
“Jessica was an amazing sitter who took great care of our dog so well and communicated to us frequently with photos too. We highly recommend her for any and all of your dog sitting needs!”
“We have a very active 60 lb. dog who requires a daily hike. Tina took Hazel out for an hour each day, and when it proved too hot in the afternoon she switched to mornings. She followed all of our requests and Hazel really liked Tina. She (Tina, not Hazel) left the house clean and tidy. We have already made arrangements to hire Tina again. We recommend her wholeheartedly.”
About: Hello! I am a friendly dog loving sitter who has years of experience. I personally have two dogs and have done dog sitting for friends and family throughout the years. I’m respectful of owners rules and wishes also respectful of space. I’m currently a college student and have a lot of time to play, walk and give enough attention to a dog while sitting. I’m usually available when I don’t have class and have no other extracurriculars on. I’m pretty flexible! I make sure pets are comfortable in their own home but also follow owners instructions. If you need me to stick to crate training or medication schedule I will do so
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for my own pet. I also have repeat dog-sitting experience, including caring for the same dog for extended stays while his family travels. This has included multiple extended stays ranging from five days to two weeks, so I understand the responsibility that comes with being trusted with someone’s pet while they’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles and following your pet’s individual routine and care instructions. I know every pet has their own personality, so whether yours loves constant attention or prefers a little space, I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable! I’m reliable, attentive and respectful of both your pets and your home, and I’m always happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands! 🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for drop-in visits as well as overnight house sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual feeding, playtime and care routine. I know how important consistency is for cats, so I’ll do my best to keep their days feeling as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, so I’ll always respect your home and follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll carefully follow any feeding, litter, playtime or other care instructions you provide, and make sure doors and windows are secure when coming and going. I’m respectful, clean and considerate of your space, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing both your pet and your home are being well cared for!
“Jade was phenomenal house sitting for my dog! It was a short notice, long weekend stay she was able to accommodate for nicely, and was even able to stay an extra night when my flight home was delayed. Communication was great and I recieved many pictures of Daisy enjoying herself (and treats) while I was away!”
About: I've been a dog owner my entire life. I love all animals and I am so happy to play and love your pet like it's my own! I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I can remember, my German shepherd mix as a child, 2 labradors and I had a wonderful sweet Shiba Inu named lady who passed a couple years ago from chronic kidney failure. So I have a range of caring for all ages of dogs. I have 10 years of experience with training and obedience. I'll make sure they get out their pent up energy and you will come home to a happy pup! I will pay close attention to your pet and make sure they are safe at all times. If they have special needs I am more than happy to take care of that as well. I'm enthusiastic and care very much for all animals. Thank you for the opportunity to take care of a part of your family! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the week. I’m especially available during weekday mornings and afternoons, and I can often accommodate evenings with advance notice. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks fit naturally into my routine, and I’m happy to work with pet parents who need dependable, recurring care. I always treat every pet like they’re my own and make their safety, comfort, and routine my priority. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule, feeding instructions, medications, crate routine, and any house rules you have. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Ruth was amazing!!! She stayed with Zeus for 8 days. He loved her. She had a lot of patience. She would always communicate with me. Friendly. You can tell she has a love for what she does. Zeus has some anxiety but with Ruth he was fine. She is the new sitter for him and we will definitely be working with her in the near future. We recommend her to any fur parents. I was so nervous but at the end it was the best decision!! Thank you!!”
“Yerim was wonderful! She took great care of our critters & house, and had no problem providing special care for our pup when a last minute health issue arose. We would be happy to hire her again!”
“Laura was amazing with our dogs and they seemed to have more fun with her than they do with us! She was always walking them and sent lots of photos. She also left our house super clean!”
About: I am semi retired nurse and Im a homebody who’s obsessed with my own dog. I will be home to be at your dogs beck and call. I’m home all day and able to pamper my own dog. He goes out in the morning to potty and gets breakfast in the morning. In the evening we go to the park or walk the walking path down the street from my house. I also have an enclosed small yard for safe dog potty area. I’m able to walk my dog everyday and also have an enclosed small yard for potty time and it’s safe away from the animas and hawks. I have cameras and can monitor as well as have the time to care for your pets 24/7.
“Chelsea was warm and welcoming! Arrived before her scheduled start time. Dogs were warm and loving to her. They appeared very comfortable with Chelsea and she with them. We felt very relaxed during our visit to Disneyland because Charlie & Sandee seemed very happy. We will definitely call upon Chelsea when we return to Anaheim!”
“Another awesome job by Abigail. She's watched our dogs three times now and it's always a pleasure for them and us, as well as peace of mind knowing that they're in good hands (and heart) while we're away.”
“Thanks Jenn!! Excellent house sitting and wonderful to my cat and dog. They were relaxed and happy when we got home, always a sure sign of care and attention while we were away, we appreciate that so much!!”

Katrina was great with Niko! She took really good care of him and kept me updated with photos, which I really appreciated. She also made sure to let me know every day that he had taken his medicine. It was really nice knowing he was being well taken care of while I was away. I would definitely book with Katrina again!
This was our first time leaving Zeus and Zara at home during a longer trip, and Lauren really helped us feel at ease. She followed their schedule, fed them on time, spent quality time playing with them and kept us updated throughout our trip. She also accommodated our last-minute request to extend their care. Most importantly, our dogs trust and absolutely love her. They were happy and well cared for when we returned, and we’re very grateful!
We went out of state for 5 days and had never left our cat so I was wanting someone at the house with her and so the house would not be vacant - We were very happy with Kelsey! She came over to meet with us first and we really liked her. She took good care of our cat, fish and even the outside animals / birds as I requested which meant a lot to me (not a typical request but she was great about it!) We loved how she asked questions when she had any via text. She also sent us a lot of pictures which was great! We recommend Kelsey!
Lena is amazing. Kind, responsible, responsive, exact, caring, gentle, honest, capable, safe…all the characteristics you need and want in a furbaby sitter. She stayed in my home with my furchild, Summer, sent pictures and videos often, followed my detailed, and particular, directions exactly, and most importantly, Summer loves her!! Lena made my time away from Summer bearable. Will request Lena again soon, and without reservation.
Ryan is simply wonderful. He stayed with our dog and cat for 6 days. He immediately became friends with our dog (and she’s quite a handful). Our cat didn’t accept him right away, but he wasn’t put off and found an approach with her - and after just 2 days they were already best friends. He always sent us photo updates and wrote about how the animals were doing. We can see that our pets didn’t miss us at all while Ryan was with them. He’s now number one on our list of pet sitters. Thank you so much.
Whitney is simply wonderful, and an amazing house and cat sitter. Our original sitter had to cancel a few days before leaving on a trip, and we were incredibly fortunate to find Whitney. She is very punctual, and kept our kitty’s schedule and routine going smoothly while we were away. She is great at communicating, letting us know when she first arrived and with daily updates and pictures. Her care for our home and especially for our kitty put us at ease while we were away. She is very neat and tidy and went above and beyond cleaning before she left and we arrived back home. Thank you kindly Whitney for spending the week with our kitty! For those looking for a wonderful cat sitter, Whitney is absolutely one of the greatest.
We had a wonderful experience! She was gentle, sweet, and incredibly accommodating. My little poochies felt calm, comfortable, and well cared for in her presence. It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were with someone so kind and attentive. I would gladly trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to others!" 🐾💕
We have a very active 60 lb. dog who requires a daily hike. Tina took Hazel out for an hour each day, and when it proved too hot in the afternoon she switched to mornings. She followed all of our requests and Hazel really liked Tina. She (Tina, not Hazel) left the house clean and tidy. We have already made arrangements to hire Tina again. We recommend her wholeheartedly.
Brittney was amazing with our 11 week old puppy. I was so nervous about leaving him due to a work event, but was immediately set at ease with her calm personality and loving demeanor. I got updates and pictures regularly and was able to do what I needed to do for my job while knowing my puppy was safe and loved. Thank you!!!
Mattie always does a great job with our pets and our house. Our dog gets very anxious when we leave and has had chewing and potty issues with other pet sitters. Mattie gives her the love and attention she needs to calm her nerves and we have had zero issues with her as our pet sitter.
Allessandra was awesome! She came in clutch for me last minute and was amazing with the house and dogs. She sent pictures, updates, and was super communicative. She followed directions perfectly and left the house clean, which is the best to come home to. Would definitely rebook again!

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 Atwood 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 Atwood 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Atwood 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
