“Tiffany did a great job taking care of our pets and small hobby farm. She communicated regularly before, during, and after our trip. Tiffany was also flexible when unexpected things came up. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Such a great experience! We are first time Rover users and I could not be more pleased. Jenna is so communicative and so easy to work with. She sent pictures during each check in and I could tell that my fellas enjoyed having her. Thank you Jenna!”
“Devin did an amazing job house sitting and taking care of our puppy for several days while we were out of town. He was very communicative and respectful throughout the entire time. We really appreciated the pictures he sent us, which helped us feel at ease. Devin even went the extra mile by cleaning the sheets and towels before leaving and ran our dishwasher. Highly recommend his services!”
“Jessica was absolutely fantastic while caring for our dog, Bella, during our trip to New York City. From the moment we met her, it was obvious how much she genuinely loves animals, and that care and compassion showed throughout Bella's entire stay. We received updates that gave us peace of mind, and it was clear Bella was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What really impressed us was the extra level of care Jessica provided around our home. Not only did she leave everything spotless, but I honestly think the house was cleaner than when we left. She even started the laundry for the bedsheets she used before leaving—something we never expected and certainly didn't ask her to do. Those thoughtful touches speak volumes about her character and professionalism. We would not hesitate to book Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring to look after their pets. Bella was in excellent hands!”
“Carol stayed in my apartment and looked after my heeler Louie over several days. She was a great communicator, which was super helpful as my return flight was considerably delayed. Louie seemed quite content in my absence. The apartment was also just as I had left it! I highly recommend her.”
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals and livestock, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and am happy to follow training routines, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether caring for a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a shy animal, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel loved and cared for. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away if wanted! ☺️ Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work in an office from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. most weekdays, so I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. On days I work from home or have flexibility in my schedule, I can often accommodate additional visits as well. When caring for your pet, I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure they’re cared for according to their routine. Whether it’s morning walks, evening playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care that fits my schedule, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise under my supervision. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I’ll always introduce pets gradually and make sure everyone is comfortable. If a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or simply feels more secure in a crate, I have a kennel available and will follow your preferences and your dog’s normal routine.
About: I have been a vet tech for 4 years and have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, horses, and pocket pets. Love them all. I work full time, but have longer lunch breaks so can usually make mid day, can have busy weekends but make time work as needed. I have a dog and two cats myself. I love to focus on play and cuddle equally. If a pet ever needs to come to me, I have a separate guest room just for them!
“Anthony was so good with our 2 pups. He took on the stages of our puppy with potty training and chewing things up with no problems. Very communicative and great with dogs!”
“Yasmin took amazing care of our sweet girl for 5 days. She was meticulous and adjusted to exactly how we needed Juniper cared for. She sent updates every few hours and made me feel at ease being away.”
“Allison is a pro. She was fantastic with communication and was very detail-oriented. We have a 10-page manual about our dogs/house, and she read the whole thing and even asked about a discrepancy she noticed! She showed up when she said she would, on time, and she did a great job getting our persnickety dogs to take their meds. The house was well in order when we got home, which is so nice and not always the case with other sitters. She sent pics and updates consistently too, which was much appreciated!”
About: I have taken care of my dog since he was a puppy and my brothers do for about 4 years. I also work at a doggy day care and am around all sorts of dogs and understand body language. I work mostly on the weekends. I am most available to spend the most time with your pet during the week. I have school but no more than 4 hours a day. I provide attentive and reliable pet care either in my home or in the client’s home, depending on their preference. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for by giving them plenty of attention and maintaining a clean environment. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and ensure the pet experiences minimal disruption to their normal routine. I am also comfortable administering medications if needed and monitoring pets for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.
“Hailey was very attentive and kind for our stay with our dog Dove. She checked in with us on anything she had questions about and did a great job. We appreciated her updates throughout the time as well. We’ll definitely use her in the future.”
“Emma was great with our girls. When we returned from our trip the girls were happy and healthy. We were a bit concerned about them eating while we were gone but they did eat! Our home was exactly as we left it - picked up and clean. I would definitely recommend Emma if you need someone to pet sit.”
“Adrianne watched my high maintenance Kit for a long weekend and he absolutely loved her! We received updates and photos often. I can tell he was very loved when we were gone and it was so nice not worrying about him all weekend! Will have Adrianna stay with Kit again!!”
“Quinn was absolutely amazing with our pups! We had a last minute trip that required someone to stay with our dogs at our house for 7 days and Quinn went over and beyond. She took our dogs to the apartment dog park daily and played with them for hours. Would recommend Quinn to anyone needing a loyal pet sitter who will treat your animals like her own. When we returned she washed all the bed sheets and tidy up the house so we returned to a clean home.”
About: I've taken care of different breeds of dogs (labs, bichon, cavaliers, boxers, etc.) with ages ranging from puppy - end of life. Been referred from jobs to owners friends and have a passion to take care of others pets. I'm currently working full-time Monday - Friday, but would be able to care for pets outside of classic business hours. I have no reoccurring weekend commitments. When taking care of pets in the clients home I like to leave the home as good as it was when I arrived or better.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 560 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bouton. 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 Bouton 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 Bouton 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 Bouton 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.
