“Karolina was a FANTASTIC cat sitter!!! We had an urgent request for a sitter and she truly saved the day!! She was incredibly responsive to any requests we had and was extra loving to our babies. She not only showered them with affection, she cleaned up their messes, and made sure they were well fed while she stayed in our home. Karolina also left our home as neat as she found it. I highly recommend booking Karolina and we will most certainly use her services again! Moreover, our cats were happy and relaxed when we got home which is their way of giving her a five paw review!! ☺️”
“Jessica was exceptional. On time, great communicator, neat and tidy in my house, and so kind. My dog Luca loves her. I felt so at ease leaving him with her! And I am a neurotic dog dad lol.. She’s just the best!!”
“Morgan is fantastic! She showed up on time and fell in love with my puppy from the minute she arrived. She sent pictures, played with her and kept her cuddled up and happy until we returned. She is great! I would highly suggest her!!”
About: For the past 5+ years, I have been the go-to sitter for my sisters and friends, caring for pups of all ages and personalities. Whether it’s letting them out for playtime zoomies, keeping them fed and happy, or letting them out for scheduled potty breaks. I love making our furry family members feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I enjoy creating a fun, stress-free experience for your dog or cat, and love learning their routines, quirks, and comfort needs. I am always up for belly rubs, behind the ear scratches, fetch sessions, or just some nice quiet time cuddles - whichever they enjoy the most or all of the above. My family and I have always loved animals. We’ve had several cats, a Cocker-spaniel named Sam and an Akita named Bruno My most recent experiences thus far have been with Doodles, Labradors, Retrievers, an Alaskan Malamute, and an Australian Shepherd and my nieces 3 cats. I sincerely look forward to adding your furry family members and their type of breed to my resume as well. If you’re looking for someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited to spend time with your dog or cat, Please feel free to get in touch, I’d be thrilled to help care for them as if they were my own. Hi, currently I am not working at a traditional job so I am able to come and drop in to care for your dog or cat. I am excited to begin this new journey and be able to bring a service that would help fit anyone’s busy schedule. Since I am able to come to your home your pet will feel more relaxed and comfortable in their environment. The safety and well-being of your pet/s are paramount for me, any rules or restrictions you may have for them will always be respected and adhered to. I take the trust you place in me to care for your pet/s seriously, which is why they will always be treated with the utmost care and love.
About: I've been dog sitting and cat sitting from a young age, I have taken care of family pets, pets of friends, and all those in between. I've never lived without pets. I have always had a genuine love and compassion for animals, and have unconditional love for them. I graduated from the NCTA Veterinary Technician program in Junior year of High School. Currently unemployed. Even when busy, I always have time to stop by and take care of pets. I am usually available for long periods of time. I will respect your pet's personal space if they are more of an anxious pet, I had a very anxious pup growing up so I know what it is like. I will give your pet lots of love and company, and follow whatever schedule you use to feed them or administer medication. I am happy to do extra for any pet.
“Mia was absolutely fantastic with our dog and two cats. They immediately warmed up to her and I felt like they hardly missed us at all while we were gone. I plan on using her the next time we go out of town!”
About: I am an experienced dog mom and dog whisperer. I have cared for all kinds of dogs small and large, young and old and special needs as well. I’m currently available full time for daytime and overnight (in your home) pet care. I use local beaches, parks and hiking trails for walking and sniff enrichments as well as fenced dog parks if your pup is amiable to that environment! I have a dog to keep yours company and play together. I walk them 3-4 times a day for enrichment and potty breaks. My pup enjoys rolling in the grass and watching for rabbits and squirrels.
“This is the second time Veronica took care of my house and pets. This first time was only for a few days. This time it was for 2 weeks. My pets were well cared for and I got pictures of them regularly. Even my super timid cat who doesn’t do well with new people warmed up to Veronica and would sit with her. Seeing that made me feel that I’d made the best choice possible for a house/pet sitter. Veronica did everything I had asked her to do, including accommodating a contractor who did some repairs while I was gone. When I got home, the house was cleaner than when I left! This was an excellent experience.”
“She was very friendly and on schedule. I know our fur baby is a handful but she was great with him. Found our baby happy. She is awesome. Very communicative. Several updates.”
“Martina was very professional and did a good job taking care of dogs that were bigger than her! We had one dog that was very needy with lots of medicine and she was able to stick to the schedule and keep his healing on schedule. The dogs were just as happy when we came back as when we left so we know she took care of our dogs as if they were her own.”
“We loved having Cassidy watch our two dogs! Our pups have specific dietary/feeding needs and our pitbull has some anxiety and Cassidy handled their needs with great care. It was smooth communication and we received lots of great updates about how they were doing. We highly recommend Cassidy for your dog sitting needs, and we will definitely be using her again. :)”
About: I grew up with cats my whole life. I currently have a 13 year old tabby named Charlie. I have watched several cats, dogs, chickens, and goats over the last 10 years. I am very passionate about animal advocacy. I previously worked at NOAH Animal Shelter and Brigadoon Service Dogs. *I have experience administering oral meds and an inhaler to cats. I'm currently available full time for pet sitting which means I have a very flexible schedule. I am happy to check on your pet daily as well as other house sitting chores if requested. My husband and I are renting so unfortunately we can't host pets at our home. I'm more than happy to check in on your animals at your residence. I will leave it cleaner than I found it.
“Danya was AMAZING!!! She treated our dogs like they were her own and was so easy to get ahold of whenever we needed her. We received pictures and updates throughout each day, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell how much she cares about the animals she watches. We will absolutely be using her again! ❤️🐾”
“Audrey was a magnificent dog/house sitter. She was very communitive before during and after by leaving us a wonderful note. Our Aussiedoodle is very active and we spoil her. Audrey seems to have figured out her needs and lovingly fulfilled them. Our home was left just as we left it. She even washed her sheets and remade the bed. We would use her again in a ♡ beat!”

About: Hi! I'm Mary Beth! I work for NOAA currently as a scientist. I'm looking for a productive way to harness my love of pets. My very first job was dog walking while on my paper route. I have walked, watched, and trained dogs for as long as I can remember. The neighborhood I grew up in knew me as the go to girl for pet sitting while on vacation. I am ready and willing to be of service to you and your furry family. As a fish biologist I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I am very excited to get to know your pet whether it be boarding or just a quick walk. Can't wait to hear from you and care for your pet.
“Kiaunna was on time and gave my two high energy dogs great attention. She also had my home looking freshly cleaned when I returned from my trip. She did well for me, and she could do well for you as well. Give her a call for your dog sitting needs.”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child- my dad rescued my dog, rosie, when I was 9 years old. I know all of the responsibilities that come with raising a furry friend, and I will gladly face any challenges in order to improve my skills and service. I am honored to work alongside you, as well as your dog. I work part-time, as I attend high school. I am avaliable 5-7am and 4-12pm on weeknights. I am also avaliable to spend the night, too.

In addition, I am prepared for any mess and will always leave the house tidied and cleaned up.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 790 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bow. 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 Bow 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 Bow 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 Bow 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.
