“We booked Maria for our 8 day vacation. This was our first experience using Rover and Maria. We are very happy we got to meet Maria prior to our booking and felt comfortable leaving our two Shetland Sheepdogs with her while she stayed in our house. Maria did an outstanding job taking care of our dogs and sent pictures frequently while we were out of the country so we knew things were going well. My wife and I would highly recommend Maria as she took excellent care of our furry kids, gave them lots of attention and watched over our house while we were away. Thank you Maria for caring for our dogs. We can tell you enjoy pet sitting and it shows. Keep up the great work!! We are so grateful we met you and look forward to when you can watch our pups again!”
“I am a bit OCD about my boy, who also happens to be a big baby who can't eat, poo or pee if left at boarding. Anthony was great. He provided me with pics and updates and proved to be a great sitter for my pup. Thanks!”
“Jennifer took such great care of our pups and our home over the holidays. Her regular updates and photos gave us peace of mind that our pups were in great hands while we’re away. Our home was in better condition when we got back than when we left it. Will be using JR regularly!”
“Kristina took impeccable care of my cat. She sent me multiple pics and video of him daily and it eased my worries about leaving him. Highly recommend Kristina!”
“Natallia was great with Duck! She was very communicative and made sure both Duck and I were comfortable when I had to leave! I will definitely work with Natallia in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Salem was able to help us with a last minute request. She was very clear with her communication and very thorough with our instructions for our doggies. She left our house in great shape! We would definitely book with her again.”
“Jess was a wonderful sitter for our two girls. She provided lots of updates and really went above and beyond! We hate traveling without our pups, but Jess made it easier to do so. Our house was also super clean when we returned!! Highly recommend Jess for your sitting needs. - E&J”
“Emily was super easy to work with. Accommodated a changing schedule. She picked up on all the pups quirks. We were happy to feel like she was reliable and we had nothing to worry about.”
“Peyton is very responsible. We were worried that we were going out of town after our pup had an injury. She took great care of him and kept up updated. Both of our dogs will be happy to see her in a few weeks.”
“Savanna took great care of our dog Herschel! She sent us tons of photos and updates and was very easy to communicate with while we were away. We'd strongly recommend her and would have her watch him again in a second.”
“Bre was a great house sitter! My dog was so well cared for and loved on. Bre even checked our mail and washed the towels she used. She’s a great person for your next house sit or pet sit. Will definitely use her again to care for my dog and home.”
“Courtney kept me updated and took great care of Scooby and Tigger while I was away for the weekend! Everything was super clean when I got back. Very responsive, reliable, and friendly, would definitely recommend!”
“Nicole was outstanding. She was very professional and easy to work with. My dog Memphis was recovering from kennel cough, I was very comfortable leaving Memphis and my house in Nicole’s care. I will be requesting Nicole again and highly recommend her to others. Overall my experience with Rover.com was excellent.”
About: I have cared for pets my entire life, as I have grown up surrounded by them. I have extensive knowledge about their care and also possess basic veterinary knowledge. In addition to giving them baths, I know how to trim their nails and, on some occasions, I can also groom their hair. I can adjust to the care schedule that best fits your needs. I believe it’s especially beneficial for your pet to go for a walk in the morning and in the evening, since those are times when they often have the most energy. I also find it very important to dedicate around 30 minutes exclusively to training, to help develop their learning skills and overall growth. Depending on the owner’s preferences, different activities and moments with the pet can be planned. For example, if it’s a pet that can only stay indoors, I would likely focus on indoor activities and spend plenty of quality time with them. On the other hand, if outdoor activities like walks or trips to the park are possible, I can easily adapt, as I love walking and believe it’s important to let pets safely explore their surroundings. That’s why I consider it very valuable to give pets the opportunity to go outside and enjoy the world.
“Thanks to Meaghan, I was completely comfortable leaving my cat and my house in her care while away. She's a very calming presence and quickly made friends with my cat, as well as giving her medicine and watering my plants. She had a family emergency that meant leaving for the weekend but let me know promptly so I could make other arrangements while she was away. I will definitely hire her again.”

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 Bonsal 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 Bonsal 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bonsal 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
