“David, was so great. He sent me regular updates on the girls and stayed with them throughout the day and night as I requested. He is by far the best petsitter on this site. Can't thank you enough David.”


About: Animal lover here that will treat your pups as if they were my very own--with lots of love, care and cuddles! My name is Biby and I grew up with animals in my family home so there has never been a time when I didn't own and care for a pet--dogs, fish, cats, rabbits, and even a bird! I hope you will consider me when searching for that perfect place. I work full-time during the week but I can work from home a couple days out of the week if need be. I would be honored and excited to care for your family member. I look forward to hearing from you soon and getting to know more about your pup! I primarily work from home throughout the week, but even during my home office hours, I often enjoy taking breaks to engage in playtime or go for walks with furry companions. I reside in an apartment and maintain a high level of organization and cleanliness. I'm delighted to offer dog care services either at your home, providing your pet with familiarity and comfort.
“I didn't have to worry about my fur babies while I was away on a 10-day trip thanks to the care of Sabrina and Daniel! They provided daily updates with lots of photos and it was clear that the dogs were well taken care of and everyone was having a great time. We had a couple of mishaps during our trip (home internet went out and an 18-hour delay on the return flight) and Sabrina and Daniel were flexible, communicated clearly, and took it in stride. We came home to a clean house and happy pups! I'm so glad to have found them and will definitely use them in the future!”

“Megan was fabulous! We needed a dog sitter last minute to stay over the weekend and she responded right away. She came over for a visit to meet our dog and walked through everything; our dog immediately loved her. She arrived on time and treated our pup and home with care and respect. We are so grateful! Highly recommend.”

About: I managed to survive caring for my Samoyed from birth to full size. He was and still is high maintenance, and I believe he has prepared me well. I am not currently employed and am preparing for law school next year. I am available any day of the week at any time :) I stick to a strict food and walk schedule with my dog so that he does not have to wait any longer than he should. I keep an eye out for hotspots or any irregularities, and address it right away. Most importantly, I treat every animal like my best friend.
“Lauryn stayed at our place to take care of our Lab. Lauryn did a great job walking and caring for our pup, and the house was clean when I arrived and our dog was happy. Highly recommend! .”


About: I’ve always had a huge heart and love for animals of all kinds! I have experience pet sitting for numerous families, caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from smaller breeds to larger, high-energy breeds like German Shepherds and Rottweilers. I also have two huskies of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic dogs and the attention, exercise, and care they need! I’m a very active person who loves being outdoors, going for walks, and making sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention. My love for animals doesn’t stop at dogs! I also adore cats and have experience caring for them as well. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and always strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own! I currently work full-time but have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available most evenings after work and have plenty of availability on weekends! I’m happy to work with pet owners to accommodate their schedules and ensure their pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love being able to incorporate pet sitting into my routine! As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for animals! I have two huskies of my own who are both crate trained, and we have an electric fence at home. I also make an effort to take my dogs on walks almost every day, even if it's just a short walk to get some fresh air and exercise! I’ve also owned both indoor-only and indoor/outdoor cats, so I’m familiar with different routines, including litter box care and cats that are accustomed to going outside. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always do my best to follow their normal routines, whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate training, or any other specific needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away!
“Ian's first housesitting with Carson went very well. He was dedicated to Carson's health and safety especially since there were unexpected thunderstorms. Ian comforted Carson throughout the day and night with lots of care, hugs and belly rubs. Ian was in communication each day and sent pictures as well. Carson had an added play date with Hailey too. Ian was respectful in our home and left it clean. All great qualities when someone is caring for your pet and staying in your home.”

“Korin has stayed with our two pitbulls twice at our home. They love their time with Korin! She takes great care of them and is communicative/easy to plan with. We feel lucky to have found someone who does such a great job with our pups.”

“Katie did an absolutely phenomenal job taking care of my pup this past weekend!! It was a fairly last minute booking but I couldn't be happier. This was my first time using someone my {very anxious} dog Maverick wasn't familiar with and Katie won him over in record time! She provided excellent, timely updates with photos -- and dare I say Maverick even missed her as he was looking out the window all day yesterday! 10/10 recommend Katie and will absolutely be using her again! Thank you!!”

“Catherine stayed at our home for eight days with our eleven year-old standard poodle, Mason, who has been struggling and needed special care. She was kind, caring and skilled at making sure he ate and had his medicines. Mason took to her immediately and Catherine also made us feel comfortable. We cannot express how grateful we are for her help! We look forward to working with her again.”


About: I’ve had cats since I was 13 and have many years of hands-on experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs. I was able to help an older rescue cat become comfortable and affectionate over time, which taught me patience and how to build trust with shy or nervous cats. I currently have a tortie of my own, so I understand how important routines, playtime, and a calm environment are. I treat every cat like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time as a paraprofessional from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM on weekdays and am currently earning my master’s degree in elementary education. I’m available for pet care visits in the late afternoons and evenings after 4:30 PM, as well as weekends and school breaks. For cat sitting, I’m happy to stay for extended visits and can sit with your cat while I complete my schoolwork so they have calm companionship and supervision while you’re away. My schedule is consistent and dependable, and I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routines closely so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I provide feeding, litter box care, playtime, and calm companionship during visits. As a paraprofessional and graduate student in elementary education, I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to details and instructions. I also communicate regularly with updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, cared for, and relaxed.

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience, starting with caring for family dogs and continuing professionally at a doggy daycare. I work with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, ensuring safe play, proper routines, and individualized attention. As a dog owner myself, I understand the trust involved in pet sitting and treat every dog with patience, consistency, and care. I can do Mornings from 5:30 or 6am to 11am, I work from 12-6 pm so after work I can do 6:30pm-whenever is needed. from Monday-Friday. Weekends I can do anytime. I always make sure that the pets are safe, are always feed, always have water, and I take them out on walks very frequently.

“House, dog, cats and the fish looked and acted like we weren't gone for 10 days letting us know their routine was not interrupted. Ellyana sent plenty of pictures assuring us the furbabies were well-loved in our absence. She was not shy to ask questions or report issues to ensure everything went well for everybody while we were away.”

About: I’ve had dogs from a very young age and have been taking of my own for many years. I have been currently work at a Daycare/Boadring Kennel for a few months now. I’ve also been taking care of a family friends dog whenever needed. I would say I’m very good with connecting with people’s dog, and I love all dogs I encounter. I am also majoring in Pre-Vet in hopes to become a Veterinarian so I’m trying to get as much experience as possible! Anything you need from me, I will be there! I’m currently working part time at a Daycare/Kennel, my schedule is a bit inconsistent but I do know exactly what days I work for the whole month and if I ever need to take off to better fit your time frame, I am able to. The only thing I ask is to let me know in advanced! I am very gentle with my pets and other peoples pet. Your wish is my command!

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 Bethany 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 Bethany 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 Bethany 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.
