“Chelsea is incredibly responsive, reliable, and easy to communicate with. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals, and she took excellent care of my fur babies while I was away. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”
“It was a pleasure having Sam watch our pups and would love to have her back! She was great about sending daily photo updates and confirming if our dogs’ quirks were normal/expected.”
“Felix was awesome! He goes above and beyond my expectations without even the need to communicate anything with him. He got so friendly with my Bella, they played all the time and he was amazing at sending photos and videos so I knew how my kitty was doing. I found the place looking better than when I left and Bella looks happy and well fed and looks like she had a great time. I am so grateful for Felix”
“Thank you Jenna for your tender loving care of Alex while I was away. I know it wasn't easy, as he also started a new medication (that you picked up for me!!) along with his other meds. Just getting him to take his meds is quite a task. I will certainly contact you again the next time we are out of town. Thank you, thank you!!”
“Aik was amazing! He handled my dog’s unexpected quirks with ease!!! I can tell she was loved and very well cared for. Plus he took great care of my house too! Would recommend and rebook anytime. Thanks Aik!!!!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who need gentle care and extra attention. I’m skilled in reading animal body language, administering basic medications, and maintaining calm, comforting environments. My priority is always safety, trust, and keeping pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily life. I plan my schedule around the pets I look after, making sure each one gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening feedings, I build my day around their routines. On a weekly basis, I check in with clients to confirm schedules, update them with photos and notes, and make sure each pet’s needs are being met. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every single day. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would my own. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines to minimize stress, keep them active and engaged, and send regular photo and text updates so owners feel connected and confident that their furry family members are in good hands.
About: I’m a caring, responsible dog lover who treats every pet like part of the family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each dog. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means plenty of playtime and walks, extra patience with a shy dog, or a calm and comfortable environment for a senior pet. I’m also comfortable providing the patience and consistency that young dogs and puppies need as they learn good habits and adjust to new surroundings. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel happy, cared for, and at home while you’re away-and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work outside the home, but I'm intentional about making pet care a priority in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they receive regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Before booking, I'm happy to discuss your pet's specific needs and make sure my schedule is a good fit for them. When I'm home, your pet gets plenty of companionhsip, attention, and care in a calm, comfortable enviornment. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and receive plenty of love, attention, and individual care. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship. For dogs, a typical day includes walks, outdoor time, play, and lots of attention and affection. For cats, I'll provide feeding, fresh water, litter-box care, playtime and companionship while also respecting their need for quiet time and personal space. I provide a calm, comfortable home environment where pets can relax and feel safe. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you're away. Every pet is different, so I'm happy to follow your instructions and adjust their care to their individual personality, routine, and needs.
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and families in my community. I’ve provided overnight and extended pet sitting, including caring for pets in their own homes while their owners are away. I’m comfortable following individual routines, feeding, walking dogs, playtime, and giving pets plenty of attention . I always make sure the pets in my care feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have an on-call job, so my schedule can be flexible depending on when I’m needed for work. There are times when I’m available all day, and if I am scheduled to work, I’m typically done by around 4 PM the latest. I’m able to plan ahead each week and communicate my availability clearly, and I’ll always make sure I can give your pets the care and attention they need. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar to them. I’m respectful of your home and understand that being trusted with someone’s pets and space is a big responsibility. I keep things clean and tidy, follow instructions carefully, and communicate with owners frequently so they know how their pets are doing for that extra peace of mind.
“Julissa was great when I recently booked her for house sighing my dog. She was accommodating and flexible when I had travel delays. She also sent lots of updates and photos. She also was available and replied promptly to any messages. My dog had a lovely time with her and she left the house very neat and tidy as well. I would love to have her dog sit again!”
“Aylia was great! This was our 6-month old Beagle pup’s first experience with a sitter, and it went without a hitch. Our puppy warmed up to Aylia instantly. We will surely use Aylia again.”
“Xander is the best! We’ve already booked him for two more stays. We returned to an immaculate house and a very happy dog:). Our pup is a bit timid and nervous around new people and Xander put her entirely at ease.”
“Deborah's the best. You can tell right away that she's truly a dog person. She took care of Wallace for 2 weeks and that was no small undertaking. He's a very senior 90# chocolate lab with mobility and incontinence issues. She totally rose to the challenge, going above and beyond; dog baths, obtaining supplements, even facilitating getting him set up with a new bed. She's amazing. If I need help again for sure she's going to be my first call. But I think she's going to be discovered and I have no doubt she will easily fill up her schedule”
“I was a little nervous leaving my cat for the first time, but Marion made it so easy. She showed up right on time, sent me updates, and treated my cat like her own. When I got back, my cat was relaxed and happy. It felt like she’d been cared for by a friend. It’s rare to find someone this trustworthy these days. I’ll definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Bryan was amazing. Definitely will recommend and use again. My dog is full of energy and he was able to manage and care for him accordingly. 5 starts across the board”
About: I've had all sorts of animals my whole life. I've experienced animals throughout all the stages of their life, from beginning to end. I love on animals as if they were my own child! Your fur baby will be safe with me 💜 I am currently working Monday thru Friday in SF and have weekends and holidays off. When I am not home, my grandmother (who has even more pet care experience) is home. I usually get home in the evening on Monday thru Friday around 5:15pm and am home all day Saturday and Sunday. I have a lovely fenced backyard as well as a medium sized crate in the house. I have one dog, 3 cats, and a turtle. I make sure to regularly let my dog out for a potty break. I make sure to feed at their regular eating times. I usually sleep with my dog, and there's more than enough room for one or two fur babies to cuddle with. I am open to taking care of whatever needs your animal may have. Mom/Dad know best!
“Dawn took wonderful care of our dog and home. She connected with our pup and understood him well. He definitely bonded with her. She shared lots of photos, videos, and stories, and it was clear our dog was happy. We highly recommend Dawn and hope to have her dog sit again soon!”
“Our dog immediately became best friends with Casey at the meet and greet which put us at ease. Casey housesat for our dog for 3 nights. When we returned home, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared-for. It was clear that Casey followed all of Cookie’s care instructions and gave her plenty of attention. Additionally, the house was in better condition than when we left it.”

“Lauren was super kind and sweet toward our dogs. Thankful to have her spend a couple weekend with them so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She followed instructions left and sent almost daily pictures of our loves. Would book her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belmont
Sameena took amazing care of our dog, Luna! She was so attentive, followed instructions, made sure Luna always had physical activity, snacks and water, and took amazing care of our house. Sameena was communicative and sent adorable photos. Luna also needed a few medications while we were gone, and Sameena made sure we were updated and always knew how she was doing. I would highly recommend Sameena to watch your pet and house sit.
I highly recommend Mario! He made the whole process seamless and took amazing care of our little guy! He sent us pictures 3x per day, was communicative, and followed our instructions to a T. I look forward to using him again whenever we are unable to bring our dog with us!
Joy was great with my little Maltese. He is a bit stranger shy and tends to bark when meeting new people, but Joy was patient with Nemo and was not put off or annoyed by Nemo's barking. She ended up getting into his playpen and sitting with him, giving him scratches and cuddles, which did the trick and settled him down. All my little guy needed was some attention and TLC! Nemo seemed to enjoy his time with Joy, and vice versa. Thanks for being patient with my dog and finding a way to connect with him!
Jazmin was amazing! She responded right away to our last minute booking request for the following day and even made time to come meet us and our pup the evening before with only a few hours’ notice. She was incredibly sweet and loving with our anxious rescue pup, sent regular updates throughout the day, and was extremely communicative. We felt completely comfortable knowing Scout was in such good hands. Highly recommend Jazmin for any pet sitting needs!
Xander was great! He was so patient with Mycroft and won her over at her pace, giving her much needed company and supervision so I could enjoy a day away with friends. I’ve never been gone for so long before, but he was able to make her comfortable enough to sleep the day away—something she won’t do, no matter how tired, u less she feels secure. So glad to have him and will definitely book again. I recommend him highly.
Was very happy and pleased with Akosua staying at our home and watching our 2 golden retrievers. She kept us informed and was always responsive. Took our pups for walks, handled reactivity to squirrels and some GI issues. Would not hesitate to recommend to others, and will reach out to her next time we need a house/dog sitter.

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 Belmont 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 Belmont 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 Belmont 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
