“Nichole is fantastic! Took great care of Riley girl and went above and beyond during a long business trip! I’ve had several dog watchers over the years and she may be the best! Trust her confidently with your pets!”
“James was amazing with my two big dogs and house sitting while we were away for a few days! Easy communication, adorable pictures, and somehow pacified my wild 2.5yr pit/mastiff mix. Highly recommend booking with him.”
“We’ve used Rylie twice now and she’s done a fantastic job. Our pup seems to have really taken to her. We also accidentally booked 1 night short of our return date and she was happy to adjust plans and stay an extra night!”
“Denise again did wonderfully with my pups! This is the second time she’s house/dog sat for me and sends lots of updates! Thank you Denise! We will see you again soon!”
About: I am an animal care professional with a degree in animal studies and over a decade of pet sitting experience. I have worked extensively with dogs and cats in environments such as boarding facilities, training centers, shelters and more. I am also familiar working with various exotics. Animal care is my passion and as your sitter I can guarantee the best possible care for your pet. I have a very flexible schedule. I can come for quick drop-ins, such as potty breaks and feedings throughout the day. Or I can do longer visits for activities such as walks, playtime and cuddle time. If your pet is not much of a cuddler I can also just come by to be a loving human presence for a few hours while they go about their day. I am available practically anytime on specified days. While caring for your pet in your home I will respect your household and follow all of your specified pet care instructions. I will make sure to clean up after your pet whenever necessary and use the specified leashes, collars, toys, food, and spaces as instructed. I am here to carry out their normal routine as best I can while caring for them as if they were my own.
“Christine was so great with Lenny! He was immediately comfortable with her, she was immediately comfortable with him - and he immediately listened to and followed her lead. Her considerable experience (with all kinds of animals and particularly dogs in this case) was very apparent. She was attentive, meticulous, and provided many updates throughout the long weekend we were away. Lenny seemed sad when he realized she wasn't coming back the night we returned.🙂 We would absolutely hope to book with her again.”
“Cierra did a wonderful job house sitting and watching our anxious dog! She sent us updates with photos and our girl was happy and comfortable with her. We will definitely want to book with her again in the future!”
“Fatima took great care of our dog Blue! We felt reassured being away with pictures and updates. Fatima is also very kind and accommodating, would definitely reach out again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, horses, and all sorts of pets for most of my life. From Great Danes to Shih Tzus I love all the puppies! I have a miniature bernedoodle and a Shih Tzu currently that I raised from puppies and they are very well behaved. I have watched an older dog who needed liquid IVs and pills and everything went well with him. I currently have three dogs at home. I work part time and can schedule work every week based around what I am doing, so I am pretty much always available as long as it’s about a week in advance. I can be at home as much as needed! I have three friendly dogs (two don’t like to play much but one loves to play) at home and no cats in the house. We do potty breaks every couple of hours which consists of just letting the dogs out in the yard which is not fenced in. Whenever I watch dogs at the house, I am always certain to take the dogs out on leash. If the puppers aren’t the best on leash that’s alright as well, I just use a harness or whatever the owners provide.
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, bearded dragons, and exotic animals. I have worked on farms, volunteered at exotic animal shelters, and pet sat for friends, family, and Neighbors. I'm experienced with young pets, potty training, and Senior care. I'm also a quick learner and can help with training when instructions are explained beforehand. I'm comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. I'm a full-time college student, but I do not have classes on mondays, Wednesdays or fridays, giving me plenty of time to care for, play with, and give attention to your pets. I'm also available on weekends and for over the weekend stays. For safety and the well-being of both your pets and my own, I'm unable to host pets in my home because I have several animals myself. I'm happy to provide care in your home where your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and a clean, comfortable environment for every pet I care for. At home, I regularly care for my own cats, dogs, rabbits, and other animals, including feeding, freshwater, play time, exercise, clean up, and maintaining their daily routines. I have also dog sat and cared for pets belonging to friends and family including while they were away on vacations or weekend trips. Before caring for a client's pet, I prefer to receive a written list of their needs, routines, medications, feeding instructions, or any special care they require. A text message is perfectly fine as well. I'm a quick learner and willing to follow whatever instructions are necessary to help your pet feel safe, happy, healthy, and well cared for.
“I am always glad when Robert is available to house sit my cat and dog. With him, my dog gets to take many, long walks. My cat likes to be near him, that is not true of everyone.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them! I’ve pet sat for many families, including stays up to two weeks. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with medications, special needs, and disabilities, always treating every pup like my own. Currently a college student with a mix of online and in-person classes, giving me a consistent and flexible schedule for pet care. I’m consistently available throughout the day on Mondays, Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with additional availability depending on my class schedule. I live in a condo with access to a community dog park and plenty of outdoor space. I have a friendly 3-year-old Bernadoodle named Milo, and I also have a large crate available if needed.
About: I have plenty of experience of taking care of dogs, cats and other types of animals we call our babies. I have three cats and a turtle of my own at home. Your pets will be loved and watched as if they were my own and more because I know the fears of leaving them alone with someone new. I currently am employed but I am looking to become a full-time sitter or make a transition into the industry working alongside animals. I have a long time dream to open my own shelter one day. I care for your pets as if they were my own babies. Mainly following all your instructions and guidelines, with a little touch of love. I will always provide photos for proof of life and keep updates if necessary.
About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a former ICU nurse and current CRNA student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I know how stressful it can be leaving your pets behind, so my goal is to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own two cats, and I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving oral medications, and sticking to your pet’s normal routine. Whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. As a healthcare professional, I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep communication a priority. You’ll receive plenty of updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. As a full-time graduate student, I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I always prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated throughout each visit. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll always respect your home, carefully follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve cared for and have loved dogs for the past 20 years. I have experience with dogs and with diabetes and other special care needs. I’m currently a hybrid worker with a flexible schedule allowing me to work from home anytime. I will communicate with owners if there is any reason I would need to be away from their pet for more than 4 hours. I currently do not have any pets. I live in a second story condo with plenty of walking paths in the neighborhood and a dog park close by. My house is a calm environment for anxious pets.
About: We provide boarding for your cat or dog in a family-based environment. We try to keep a structured and caring home environment for pets while their owners are away. Our goal is to keep the experience for you and your pet as safe and stress free as possible. Additionally, I have First Aid and CPR Certification for cats and dogs. I am also Fear Free Certified. Being Fear Free Certified means I was trained to look at subtle signs of stress in dogs and cats before they escalate. As well as techniques to make interactions with dogs and cats less stressful. My husband works from home, and I'm also at home with my children. During the school year I do drop off and pick up for the kids. My husband is home at this time. Therefore, dogs are generally always supervised, although there may be brief periods of time we are all out of the home. We have an area designated for the dogs in our home. This helps reduce the risk of escaping and helps keep them more safe. We also have a fenced in backyard. However, we always supervise interactions in the backyard between dogs or when the dogs are alone.
“Bridget did a great job with both my dogs. She was very responsive, and communicated well and sent lots of pictures! She exceeded my expectations and will definitely be rebooking her for future trips!”
“Maura was great with our pup and our cat. She proactively provided updates and pictures at the end of each day to keep us informed, which I greatly appreciated. She was communicative, professional, and left the house in great shape. Would highly recommend her services!”
“We loved Elizabeth’s updates while we were on our trip. Our older dog Radish has a plethora of supplements and medications and Elizabeth was happy to accommodate. House was spotless on our return. Would gladly have her back!”
“Dan was GREAT with my 2 mastiff puppies! They are a lot of work and here never once complained. I felt so relieved about going to work for the first time. I loved getting the updates as well as pics. The best part is they LOVE him!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,158 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Azalia. 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 Azalia 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 Azalia 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 Azalia 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.

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.
