“Windsor was wonderful with our dog and cat> she took great care of our house and animals while we were out of town. Easy to communicate with and responds quickly. We would love to use her again!”
“Annelise was one of the best cat sitters we've had and we've had a lot of cat sitters. She was so thorough and self sufficient. She immediately had a connection with our cat and was more than able to provide all the senior cat care she needed. Our house was like we never left. We knew Nala was in good hands the moment we met her. Definitely will be inviting her back!”

“Emidio was amazing!!! Very communicative and timely!! I could tell that myla and oso got all the love they needed. Was like we never even left for the weekend! Will definitely have Emidio back :)”
About: I’ve had experience taken care of many animals ever since I was born. I have always had three dogs living in my house, no matter the year. I’ve had many pets and taken care of many animals from bearded dragons, bunnies, dogs all the way to chickens! Being around animals is my happy place and I would love to care for yours!! I work seasonally for Tahoe Donner and I am off work every day at 3 PM. Anytime after 3 PM I am available all night long! Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m very flexible and have my own vehicle meaning I can care for any animal outside of my work hours! I am also free on weekends every single week! I love to make sure they are well fed, and well entertained! I own one dog myself and care for two others at my home in Arizona and I’m constantly playing with them and making sure that they are happy! Personally, my dogs are allowed on my furniture, and I love to snuggle with them! (this varies for some people but that is just my personal preference)
“Philip was so good with our dog. He is easy to communicate with. He gave us consistent updates so we know our pup was well taken care of. Will delivery rebook with him for future needs.”
“Sky is terrific. Kind, calm and very lloving. We were fortunate to have her watch our two dogs and house sit. One of our dogs is heading to TPLO surgery so not super active. Sky made sure he had plenty of love. She made sure he received his meds and food. Our large bernadoodle is 3 and very active. Sky took her for walks and the beach. Plenty of love and fun. Thank you Sky.”
About: I have experience pet/house sitting for friends, family, and coworkers and am looking to expand my service! I am attentive to specific house/pet needs and take care in my work! I typically dog/housesit over weekends. My schedule is generally very flexible which is great and I love having dog buddies to take on walks or hikes in my free time. I grew up in a family with 1-3 large dogs at a given period and am very accustomed to dog care (walking, feeding times, routines, meds) I am also a very mindful pet/house sitter. I always make sure to follow specific instructions and care for individual pet needs. I am a good communicator and easy to reach by phone while house/pet sitting
About: Hi, I’m Aly. I am a Reno local and graduated with a degree in Wildlife Ecology from UNR in 2020, so my passion is animals. I have been pet sitting on the side for about 5 years and have experience with small dogs, big dogs, bunnies, fish, and horses. I am able to provide any oral medication needed, feeding, walks, playtime, and whatever else your pet requires to be comfortable. No job is too big or too small! This is my full time/year-round job and my hope is that I can help people live the flexible lives they want/need with the comfort of knowing their home and pets are safe and being taken care of. Pet care is my full-time and year-round job. I am available 7 days a week and also on holidays. I accept same day bookings because I know life happens and I understand the additional stress of finding pet care last-minute. My hope is to alleviate that stress and provide reliable care for your pet. When caring for your pet in your home, I try to keep the pets schedule consistent with their normal routine. That includes feedings, medication, bathroom breaks, and sleep schedules. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new, so you can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos of your pet while you’re away.
About: With over 7 years of professional sitter experience, I’m the person you call when you have a very specific way that you like things done, and would really like to leave town without worrying about any of it😆 I genuinely love getting to know animals. I actually want the detailed instructions. My background is in private home management and personal concierge work, so looking after the house comes naturally to me too. If I’m staying in your home, I’m paying attention for mail and packages that may come in. Pet areas kept clean. Plants don't mysteriously die. Trash doesn't pile up. If something looks wrong, I notice it. I've cared for multiple-pet households, senior dogs, pets with special needs and homes during multi-month stays. I'm CPR/First Aid certified for cats and dogs, comfortable following medication routines, including oral and injected medications. I work remotely, which gives me an abundance of flexibility and means I actually do spend time with the animals I'm caring for😉 I work remotely, so I organize my schedule around the animals I'm caring for rather than trying to squeeze them into my day. Morning walk at 6:30? Fine. Medication with dinner? Can do. Your dog insists on conducting a complete neighborhood security inspection before bed? Why not? Because, apparently that's what we're doing! 🤷🏾♀️😆 I enjoy it and try to make it fun for your pet. I care for pets in their own home whenever possible and I follow your routines for meals, walks, medications, playtime, bedtime rituals, and all the little quirks that make your pet your pet. I’m also looking after the household while I’m there too. I keep things tidy, bring in packages, monitor the home, and make sure you return to happy pets and a cared-for space. I’m warm with animals and extremely self-sufficient. I'm also a good communicator. You're going to hear from me. You'll get photos, updates and anything important that comes up while you're away And if your dog happens to look suspiciously happy without you, I will gladly provide photo evidence. 😁
About: What sets me apart is the attentiveness, patience, and reliability I bring to pet care. Through years of working with kids in outdoor education and ski instruction, I’ve developed strong awareness, calm communication, and the ability to adapt to individual needs — qualities that translate naturally into caring for animals. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who benefit from consistency to senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. Living an active lifestyle in Truckee allows me to offer engaging walks and hikes when appropriate, while always respecting your dog’s comfort level. I also prioritize communication and provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine and active lifestyle. I work full days at Alpine Meadows Ski Resort on Mondays and Tuesdays, and occasionally Thursdays and Fridays, so I plan pet care around those commitments to ensure every dog receives consistent, unrushed attention. On my available days and mornings/evenings, I prioritize walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship. Living in the Truckee area also allows me to offer engaging outdoor time when appropriate, while always respecting each dog’s energy level and needs. I value reliability and communication, so owners can expect dependable scheduling and regular updates. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions closely while providing attentive interaction through walks, playtime, and companionship based on each pet’s needs. I also treat your home with respect by keeping things clean and secure, and I provide regular photo updates and communication so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for while you’re away.
About: Friends and family can always relay on me to take care of their pet when needed. Love giving them the attention they want and deserve! I work for myself so my schedule is flexible and I have plenty of room in my day to take care of your pet. Walk them, feed and play. I’ll take care of your dog just how you would like me to and send photos if you miss them and want to know everything is ok!
“We hired Alice to pet sit our kittens when we were out for a a week and a half, including overnights. We returned to happy, healthy kittens. I was a little worried because one of the cats needs medication, but she handled that nicely. She was also communicative and responsive, and left the house in great condition.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes and personality for years and I continue to care for them now. I’m experienced with walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and administering basic medications. I’m currently working remotely part-time, so I have a lot of free time and flexibility. I can’t think of anything better to do during my time than care for animals! I have a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard where pets can play. I also have one friendly dog, but I can easily separate or crate dogs if needed to ensure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and provide them with plenty of attention, care, and love.
“Allison was so great with Noodle! She was so chill and kind, and Noodle immediately connected with her! She was also so communicative and accommodating with my last minute dog sitting request. Thanks, Allison :)”
“Aanakin was wonderful with Topi! I could tell Topi was really well cared for and felt completely comfortable with her while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Aanakin was kind, reliable, and took great care of my girl. It means a lot to be able to leave Topi with someone I trust and know she’s in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Aanakin and would happily have her watch Topi again! ❤️”
About: I have owned and trained dogs of all ages. I currently have a 5 yr old purebred yellow lab who is a service dog. I have experience with behavior challenges and dogs with medical needs. I am dedicated and committed to caring for your pet as an extension of you. Our dog is with us almost 20+ hours a day so close to around the clock companionship and oversight will be provided. I have a fenced yard as well as a doggie door. Your fur baby will have everything he/she needs to be happy and loved. Consider it a doggy vacation resort.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 833 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boca. 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 Boca 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 Boca 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 Boca 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.
