“Through the worst storm in AlageCal Geneva, Vick provided care for my 15 year old fragile doggie Sophia! He is a stellar caregiver and am so grateful for his time and talent!!”
“Terri was so good with our pets! She took amazing care of them, got to know their personalities and our shy beagle girl warmed up quickly. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been a dog-lover since childhood, always surrounded by dogs, horses, and even rabbits. I raised my husky from puppyhood who was my bestie. Currently unable to have a dog of my own, so I get my dog cuddles here! Equipped with any skills your pet may need. Currently unemployed and job searching, so plenty of flexibility in my schedule! I welcome the breaks that come with long walks and a happy dog :) Offering your home is an intimate thing! I want to make sure we both feel comfortable and confident communicating what we need in order to give your dog the best care possible.
“Stephanie did a wonderful job with my 2 beagles, she stayed at my house with them for a week and I came home to a clean environment and happy pups. Will definitely use her again!”
“Tami did a great job with our black lab Hallie. I appreciated the extra care she gave her after our day was naughty and ate a large portion of glucosamine should not have. (She is a counter surfer). She called right away and monitored her-all was good. She also watered our plants for us which I really appreciated. This was our first time having Tami and I would highly recommend her. We are having her again at end of September. Great job!”
“Susana is the best. We have used her for our 2 dogs on multiple occasions. She sends lots of pictures, spends a lot of time exercising them in our yard, and checks in if anything unusual occurs. Our home is always well cared for as well. Never a worry while away.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages from puppies to senior dogs in the last 10 years! Taking them on walks, playing fetch, bathing, and snuggling! Please reach out if you’re interested or want to ask additional questions!! Can’t wait to hear from you! I am student teaching right now so I am mostly available in the late afternoons/evenings. Usually around 4 or 5pm I’m available for walks or to let them out and play! I have a golden retriever and corgi and very friendly neighbor dogs as well! I can also use a crate in my home too for your dogs!
“We were so pleased with Emily. She spent 4 nights 5 days with our fur babies. She sent pictures and messaged us daily. We trusted her fully in our home. If we ever need her again and she is available we will definitely have her. She was definitely a blessing. ❤️”
About: I’ve been in the industry since I was 15! I’ve worked in daycares and have my own personal clients from friends and family!! I am very serious about dog and cat care because I’d want my own pets to be with a kind and compassionate human! I am detailed/ time oriented ! This is my passion and will put 100% in every client to provide the best possible care. I currently have open availability Monday- Sunday! I will have your pets interest at heart and will devote my time accordingly to fit their schedule. At your home I will follow protocol that you have listed to insure their safety. As well as just being more present with their potty breaks so I know that they are 100% doing their business and that they are okay.
“Declan was fantastic with our two labs! He is super accommodating to specific schedules and care requests and was really responsive. We loved our daily pictures! Definitely would recommend him and work with him again.”
“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and truly treat every pet like my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to check in, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re at work or away on vacation. I’m a mom of two who works from home, which allows me to have a flexible and reliable schedule. I’m available for pet care between 8:00am–2:30pm and again from 4:00pm–8:00pm most days. Because I’m home based, I’m able to consistently show up on time, provide dependable care, and give your pets the attention they need during the day while you’re at work or away. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I always treat any pet with respect, care, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely, keep doors secured, and make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable at all times. I’m very attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that means giving them space or extra attention. I also provide updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for just like they would with you 🫶🏻
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and cats as well. I’m a huge animal lover! I’ve had golden retrievers, pit bulls, Rottweilers, and a mini golden doodle. We currently have a 3 month old Golden Retriever! I’m currently a Stay at Home Mom to a 20 Month old little boy and a 7 month old Golden Retriever! So I’m available all the time! My son is a huge animal lover already and will be joining me on check ins and walks so please keep that in mind! Your pets safety is my first priority. They will get plenty of love and play time from myself and my son! You’re pet will be treated as if they’re my own!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 785 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bowers. 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 Bowers 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 Bowers 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 Bowers 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
