“Evie did a great job with Wyatt while I was away for 2 weeks. She was able to be with Wyatt while the storms were happening, which was a big concern for me. Evie also left the house clean, the same way it was when I left for vacation. I will book her to stay with Wyatt again.”
“We are beyond happy to have had Zahira care for our pup while we were away. She was extremely professional, compassionate and caring through the entire time. Would happily use Zahira again!”
About: I can be your dog’s personal nanny and hiking buddy!! I have a mini Goldendoodle named Ava, and she loves when we go on walks, play fetch and hide and seek!! She is the daughter I’ve never had, being I am a mom to 3 boys, and I spoil her TONS and would love to share my time with your fur babies as well. I’m a stay at home mom, and looking to help out any parents who need some extra care and love for your doggies as well!! I will care for your pets as I do my own and I’m committed to creating a safe, positive and fun experience :) As stated above, I am a stay at home mom and have the time and patience to help anyone out with your fur babies as well :) My schedule is very open and I can easily accommodate many requests as needed. I also live on a farm and can take your dog for walks around our fields, if that is something you would also want. I have no problem coming to your house to take your dog on walks, provide bathroom breaks and even a friendly game of catch, whatever their heart desires! I also have a very friendly dog, named Ava, that can keep your dog company if watching them at my house was a preference as well. We live on a farm and have tons of land to keep them busy. We also have a dog crate, if needed, and plenty of cute toys!
“Cassie was wonderful with our kiddos! She stayed at our house with our 6 dogs, yes 6! and sent us several pictures and updates while we were away. Would ABSOLUTELY recommend her, she was the best!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My babies are lifers. Your animal is my number one priority. I prefer animals over humans any day I quit my job to walk dogs full time. I’m always available if you need me. Your babies are my babies. I’d prefer dogs over humans I have a fenced in yard and no one can escape. I abide by what the client asks for in their and my own home. I walk, play with your dog if toys are presented

About: I have had a wide range of experience caring for a variety of pets ever since I was a young child. I have taken care of dogs and cats for over a decade. Your pet will have all the attention and care they need during their time with me or in my home. I work Monday to Friday with weekends off. I am able to care for them before and right after work, with family home during the day as well. I care for pets by feeding them their proper diet, playing with them/making them feel welcome, making sure their bathroom needs are met, and updating the owners.
“Sally was wonderful with our dogs! She helped us out in a pinch when our dog sitter bailed on us 4 days before our wedding. Our dogs did great with her (even being slightly timid dogs). She even brought some snacks and toys, such a thoughtful touch! We will definitely be using Sally again!”
“Sarah did a great job with my cat on an overnight 6/7 - 6/8. Everything was left as it should have been and my little girl was in good spirits when I arrived back. I will not hesitate to contact Sarah the next time I need a pet sitter. She is very easy to work with.”
About: I've taken care of my own pets since middle school, and have always had a passion for animals from even the littlest of betta fish all the way up to dogs and cats. All animals have a place in my heart, from puppies to the older guys that just like to relax. I'll make them feel safe, comfy, and most importantly I'll always make sure they're truly taken care of. As a nursing student, that caring and attentive nature is a huge part of who I am. As a student my schedule is quite flexible! My schedule changes on a week to week basis but always feel free to reach out and ask because I’m usually available for at least a couple hours every day :) I'm a very detail-oriented and attentive person. My top priority is ensuring your pet's routine is maintained perfectly, from their specific feeding schedules to their unique personality quirks. I am reliable, easy to communicate with, and will send plenty of photo updates so you can relax, knowing your pet is in great hands.
About: I have worked with animals at a boarding facility and then transferred to two veterinary hospital as a technician assistant and training tech. I also own my own dog named Titan who is 9 years old and a cat named Mami who is around 3. I’m pretty well trained with aggressive pets and even messy one who tend to potty leak because of old age! I’m extremely loving with every pets and love to give them as much photo ops as I can during our play dates to update the parent :) I’m currently in school full time but attend them mostly online. On Tuesday I go from 2-4:30pm and am free for the rest of the week. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, so I’m familiar with monitoring pet behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and safely handling animals. In my home and my client’s home, I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I also follow any instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, medication, crate routines, or special care. As a pet owner myself with both a dog and a cat, I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention.

Kayley was great and super communicative during her stay with my pups and I really appreciated that. When my dogs are stressed, they definitely let it be known, but when we got back from our trip they were happy and calm. Would happily book another stay with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,667 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Buena. 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 Buena 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 Buena 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 Buena 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.
