“Erin did an incredible job! We have an elder dog who is vision impaired and she did an amazing job keeping him company while we were out of the country. She administered his medications perfectly and kept him safe from harming himself. When we came home all of the pets were happy and clearly well taken care of. I cannot recommend her enough she is truly one of the best!”
“Abbie was the best. We absolutely would book with her again. She took great care of our dog and our home. She was very communicative about what was going on and gave thorough updates. It’s easy to tell how much she cares for animals. Your pet will be well taken care of with Abbie.”
“I would be so hesitant to leave our dogs with anyone but Kelsey. This is the third time we've booked him for in home sitting and each time we come home, the pups are healthy and happy. This trip especially was important to us because it was our wedding and honeymoon. We wouldn't have been able to enjoy either without someone we trusted and appreciated as much as him.”
“Samantha did an amazing job with our pups! Kept us updated, took goofy pictures, took them to the dog park and gave them lots of love. She also cleaned up my home since she was house sitting which was really appreciated. Will be booking with her again!”
“Jupiter decided to give our sitter Amanda a bit of a scare, but she handled it all right and took good care of our old man. I think Jupiter enjoyed making a new cuddle buddy. 😊”
“Jessica did a great job caring for our pets. She provided an update with pictures daily and was always available to chat. Thank you for taking such great care of our girls!”
“She was wonderful and did such a good job watching my dogs as one is very skittish around new people! I will be rebooking her in the future and will recommend her to anyone! Absolutely wonderful!”
“Alyssia was such a great sitter for Reo! She kept me up to date every day, sent me pics of the cutest moments (which I love getting) and Reo was very happy and calm when I got home.”
“Sophie was incredible! It was the first time we ever used a pet sitter let alone a house sitter. Sophie was incredibly communicative, completely easing our anxiety and was great with our two large dogs (who would easily be too much for most people). We immediately booked her for another trip we have coming up, and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking. 6/5 stars!”
“Hillary did a great job taking care of Sir Henry! She kept me updated throughout the visit, took him for a walk, played with him, and made sure he had plenty of attention and activity. When we arrived home, Sir Henry was happily napping, which told me he had a fun and busy afternoon. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was being well cared for while we were away. Overall, we were very happy with Hillary and would be happy to have her watch Sir Henry again!”
About: I have fostered dogs and cats for the past 4 years in CA and I moved here to VA due to change of job. I love animals and I plan on getting my own once I do a little more research until I find the perfect friend! I work 15 minutes away from my home and can come home during lunch for a potty break. I don’t go out much and love going on walks and playing with animals! I have a fenced in back yard that is on a double plot of land so there is plenty of room to run and play.
“Autumn did a WONDERFUL job watching our dog at a moment's notice. She checked in everyday and sent photos - I knew Boh was cared for, had everything he needed, and more!”
“Samantha was great! My pup has a lot of medication and medical needs and is just a handful on top of that. Samantha was on top of all of her needs and was super flexible with times! Thank you so much Samantha!!”
About: My family has tradition of owning pugs and now I own my own pet. I've always been around animals from in my own home to looking after my friends pets. I have taken care of labs, poodles and collies to name a few breeds I have dog sat for. I have the patience, friendliness and responsibility to take care of any breed, age, gender and size. I look forward to making new canine friends and believe it will be mutual.

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 Hill 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 Hill 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 Hill 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.
