“Nina is wonderful, although I would love to gate keep her for myself 😂 I must be honest and say how amazing she is! She is very flexible and She communicates well!! She kept me updated and sent pictures of my baby and I came home to a sparkling clean house with fresh sheets on the bed and a happy dog. I highly recommend her and she really is a blessing to us dog parents!! Thanks Nina!”
“Tiffany stayed at my place with my fur baby Moo for a week! Let’s start off with her response efforts that I was highly satisfied with. It was my first time leaving Moo with anyone as well at my home. She did an amazing job, fantastic with updating me on any situation and I was always sent photos of Moo. Tiffany went above and beyond and exceeded expectations in my eye, she not only gave love and cuddles to my fur baby but she also took it upon herself to make sure he was fresh and clean coming back home to. My home was also left in great condition. Tiffany is very trustworthy and her confidence shows that she knows exactly what she’s doing with pets. I definitely found a fur baby sitter for any new events that may come up. She did an awesome job and I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much again Tiffany. I appreciate your work & kind soul 🙏💗✨”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have over 12 years of experience caring for them. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I enjoy giving dogs plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own family. Im currently in nursing school and also work, so my schedule can vary from week to week. My calendar may sometimes look more limited than my actual availability, and I can often be flexible depending on the day and your pets needs! Please feel free to message me even if a date appears unavailable- I'm always happy to see if we can work something out. I only accept bookings I can fully commit to so your pup gets the time, attention and care they deserve! I always make each dog’s safety and comfort my top priority. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention and supervision, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while your pup is in my care.
“Jennifer did an amazing job with our two fur babies, they immediately warmed up to her and one of our boys takes a while to get comfortable with anyone so that was amazing !! She was excellent when it came to communication and check ins, I got plenty of photos and videos throughout the entire time we where away. She even brought them her own puzzles and activities so they can play, what an angel! The hubby said this was the first time I was actually relaxed being away from our pups,so thats huge in it self, would definitely book again! She was amazing.”
“The best experience ever! Kristy was helpful, responsive, and took the absolute best care of my pets and house! She sent pictures and made sure my babies felt loved and cared for. I would highly recommend Kristy for any of your pet sitting needs! I’m so blessed to have found her. What a gift ☺️”
“Chris was amazing to my three doggies! They each have a different personality and he was so understanding and caring for them while I was gone. They went on daily walks mornings and night and even afternoons. He was great at communicating with me as well. My doggies liked him so much it made me feel happy I was leaving them with someone that cared for them!”
About: Every animal deserves to be cared for with special attention. My name is MJ (or Meghan). I have raised a few dogs myself, and have watched family and friends pets (including snakes, spiders, chameleons and chinchillas). I’ve volunteered at animal shelters walking dogs, playing with critters, cleaning their living spaces and even fostering dogs. I enjoy the healing energy animals bring, as well as the exercise. I love all kinds of animals! Slightly unrelated, I also have a bachelors degree in psychology and I use that in daily life. I bartend part time at a restaurant, so I have a lot of free time, especially mornings. My day is centered around playing with my dog (hide and seek with toys or treats or myself, tricks for treats, tug of war, fetch and taking her on walks). It has slowed down since she got diagnosed with early onset advanced arthritis, so I thought it would be fun to look for something I would love to do but also make a little extra money doing. We just moved to Las Vegas six months ago so I’d like to build a foundation here. I have booties if necessary (for medium -medium large dogs), treats, and poop bags already at my disposal. I live in a two bedroom two bathroom condo, so the care of your cutie would be lots of playtime, walks and reward driven activities!
“WHAT A BLESSING SHE IS!! Yaritza was amazing and kept me updated the entire length of my vacation. So nice to know that someone who cared so much for animals was with my sweet 14 year-old fur baby!! I would hire her again in a second!”
“Kaitlyn is absolutely amazing. She was able to come on short notice to be with our Gwenie girl while we were out for the evening. Our pup felt safe and loved. She’s truly the best! We are so incredibly thankful.”
“Drew did a great job. We were out of the country for 10 days and he stayed in our home with our ‘kids’. We received multiple updates a day. Came home and the house was spotless. Everyone was chilled and happy. We HIGHLY recommend Drew for house sitting your pets. We will use him again, without thinking twice. Thank you Drew!!”
“Jorie has been my go to babysitter without fail every single time I travel, which is quite frequently. I don’t trust a lot of people with Vicki but she loves Jorie (likely more than she loves me). She’s always a text away and super responsive. Since moving to Chicago, she’s been an enormous source of support.”
“Nicky is so loving to the pets. This time there was a mistake/misunderstanding about the timing and Nicky handled it kindly and professionally, and made sure to reassure me and apologize profusely. I will hire her again in the future.”

“Karma was amazing! She stayed in-home with my cat for two nights. She came a couple weeks prior to meet my cat, then came again the day before the stay just to double check on everything! She sent plenty of updates and communication was great. She is very thorough and left the place spotless and my cat happy. Recommend 10/10!”
About: With over 25 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’ve had the joy of having dogs by my side my whole life. I’ve been there for pets through every stage—whether it’s bathing, giving medicine, taking them on walks, feeding, playing, or simply treating them like family. I’ve also helped out friends, neighbors, and family with their pets along the way. I’m trustworthy, friendly, and always ready to provide the loving care they deserve. As a student and a mom to older kids, I have plenty of free time to take your dog for a walk or play with them while you're at work or on vacation. I love being outdoors, staying active, and spending time with dogs—they always bring a smile to my face. It's a win-win situation! I will follow every instruction you give to ensure your home and pet are safe, clean, loved, and well-exercised. Your furry companions will receive the utmost care, love, and attention.
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs since my entire life of all sizes. I love to cuddle and take care of dogs. I currently own a chocolate lab and a Belgian malinois who both are spoiled with love and cuddles! I’d love to be able to share my love of dogs and help others with their dogs as well. I have trained both my dogs with obedience training and leash training as well as potty training. I walk my own dogs a minimum of 2 miles a day, as well as interactive play, that I’d love to do for your dogs as well! I also have experience with giving dogs medication. Setting alarms to make sure they are dispensed at the correct times, and making sure lots of praise is given. I’d love to be able to meet your pups and spoil them with my love!! My wife also loves helping me take care of others dogs, she too has had dogs her entire life and loves and spoils them. We can’t wait to meet your baby! My schedule is currently open, with early morning times of 7am to evening hours of 11pm to help fellow dog parents give their dogs fun and adventure! My babies are crate trained, but are only crated when no one is home for their safety. Your babies will love playing with my gentle giants, and have lots of toys to play with. I have a fenced yard for play, as well as unfenced areas. I live in a very quiet neighborhood that ensures comfortable walking conditions for your baby.

FAQs for House Sitting - Borax
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,240 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Borax. 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 Borax 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 Borax 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 Borax 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.
