About: I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, so I focus on providing safe, attentive, and loving care for every animal I look after. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I make sure they feel comfortable and happy in their routine. My goal is to give you confidence knowing your pet is in reliable hands. I work 4 days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to provide consistent, reliable pet care. My schedule allows me to plan around visits, walks, and check-ins so your pet gets the attention they need without feeling rushed. I’m able to stay responsive, dependable, and fully present during each visit, making sure your pet is comfortable, cared for, and on their normal routine. I provide attentive and reliable pet care focused on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions or medications. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of care and attention. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality so they feel relaxed and cared for, whether that means active play, calm companionship, or gentle reassurance. I stay observant and communicate with owners if anything seems off, so you always know your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: to treat every pet like my own and give owners peace of mind while they’re away.
“Katherine has been amazing! She is kind and considerate. She has always kept me in the loop while house sitting and taking exceptional care of my 2 fur babies. She spoils them and loves on them like they are her own. I would definitely recommend her for your pet care needs!”

“Sara was wonderful with my 3 dogs. She stayed with them for a few days while I was out of town and did an excellent job caring for them, even though my senior dog was dealing with some health issues. 10/10 highly recommend”

About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Some helpful things to know about me is that I have 5+ years experience in animal care. I've worked at animal shelters and as a manager at a pet daycare/boarding facility, I also have done pet sitting and dog walking on my own in the past. I've recently moved to the area and want to continue working with animals. I am responsible, reliable and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to send lots of updates and pictures so you know your pets are well taken care of. I have just recently moved to Alvarado and left my job at Operation Kindness Humane Society because the commute would of been too long. So my schedule is very open as of right now while I look for another job. I have a large yard, however it is not fully fenced. If you'd like for your pup to come to my house I would walk them to go potty. I also have 2 dogs that are dog friendly so if your pup likes to play they will get along great. My dogs are fully vaccinated and up to date all all shots and preventions. For your baby to stay with me I would need to see vaccination records, just to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. If you'd prefer me to pet sit at your home I am more than happy to do that as well and stay consistent with the daily routine you have with your animals. This is usually my preferred way, as it is less stressful for your animals to be in a familiar environment.
“Sarah agreed to watch our sweet pup last minute and did such a great job! She sent pics and updates and responded to all our inquiries promptly! She even complied with giving medications. Our dog came back healthy and happy (and tired from all the excitement)!”

About: Our fur babies and fur children are more than mere pets, they're valued members of the family and deserve the dedicated love, honor and respect which they bestow upon us. These traits I've learned from the beloved dogs I've had the pleasure to interact with from youth to now with my Siberian Husky, King Shepherd, and Labrador-Collie puppy. Overnight sitting is best for our pets in their known environment to ease the development of separation anxiety and to provide the appropriate level of comfort with affectionate support and encouraging companionship. By learning the necessary fitness & nutritional values from my mom to engage in a healthy lifestyle for ourselves, our furry family members require the same for their health and stamina to be maintained. I ensure properly safe walks full of scenic beauty filled with pleasant scents to peak curiosity along with free play at the dog park if requested. For daily check-in, to determine the welfare of the pets, I throughly provide clean, fresh water, food, affection, ensure clean bedding, (extra fee for washing if required) short walks and minor play, check everything is in order and health status and mood is excellent. My priority is the fur puppies, fur children, fur adults and fur elders are happy, content, safe, healthy physically, mentally and emotionally prior to departure until I return to them as often as requested and required. It would be my pleasure to assist in the your pets welfare so you can rest at ease until you've returned home to their loving licks. Available Mon-Sun, (Varies upon booking) Holidays: Please book two weeks in advance Last minute sittings, walks, check-in available based on booking schedule. Additional small charge may apply due upon request. My schedule is flexible since I drive for Doordash and Grubhub on my free time. I am available for all days for your booking needs. Pets welfare is essential in their known environment and adherence to the normal life structure set by the owner. I currently do not offer any boarding services.

I cannot keep your furry friends in my home, as I have two very large dogs that aren’t super fond of strangers! However, I am more than happy to take a trip wherever you need me to keep your pet company while you can’t!

“Couldn't ask for a better sitter! Mackenzie treated Groot like a prince. Even though he's 125 lbs it was no problem for her. She was very attentive and extra kind. Im going to look forward to the next time she can dog sit for us!”

About: I don’t just take care of the family furry paw members. I watch over the whole house. I make sure everything is taken care of while they are away. They are my first priority and my last when I’m helping someone else out. I take care of them before leaving for work and visit them when I return from work. It also depends if I’m staying at the house or just making stops in between the days. I have a fenced yard with a patio that is separate from the grass area. I have a doggy door so they can go in and out if they know how to use one. If not they learn while I have them in my care. My fur babies love playing with other dogs. If I’m at the clients home, they get lots of love and attention. I make sure they get their playing time in multiple times a day before bed time. If it’s not to hot I do try to squeeze a walk in even if it’s a small one.

FAQs for House Sitting - Blum
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 402 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Blum. 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 Blum 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 Blum 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 Blum 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blum. On Rover:
- 98% 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.
