“My elderly cat has major separation anxiety and is usually a basket case when I return home from a trip. Brittainy and Jason were here for 2 weeks, and I returned home to a happy and healthy cat. They took excellent care of my home and my baby. Even my plants looked better than when I left. Thank you Brittainy and Jason.”
“Conrad was great with Myla! He took her on her daily walks, played with her outside, and was very attentive to her needs. Myla can be reactive and has a range of different temperaments, and Conrad did a great job handling her and making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciated his communication and care while we were away. Highly recommend! 😊”
“Morgan is just amazing. Communicating was great back and forth, even when our flight plans had to change. She took excellent care of our doggies and our house. She was here with the dogs for the vast majority of the day, which was important to me. She is my go-to sitter going forward.”
“Easiest 5 stars for Mary Sue!!! Our girl got sooo many fun adventures this past week, we received at least 1 update every day and pics to go along, and we were so happy to see how much love she was getting while we were away! Mary Sue also took great care of our place and left us a clean home to come back to after our trip. We would be thrilled to have her back anytime, as would our Bumi !! <3”
“Sarah did a fantastic job watching our two puppies for over 6 hours. She was prompt, quick to reply / give updates, and was a pleasure to work with. Our puppies loved her and we will book again!”
“Danielle was absolutely beyond amazing! Our dogs can be a little bit of a handful and she did incredible with them, they loved her! She took incredible care of the house and even watered all the plants and cleaned everything before she left, genuinely couldn't ask for anything more. I would recommend her to anyone, one of the best rovers I've ever used :)”
“Jennifer is beyond communicative and helpful with my old guy. Knowing she was caring for Rex allowed me to relax and feel comfortable while leaving Rex alone. Highly recommend Jennifer!! Very responsive and sends lots of pictures”
“Audrey is awesome! She took such great care of my elderly cat. Pictures and notes every day! I got home and she'd taken out trash, washed up, etc. - left my place spotless! Thank you so much, Audrey, for taking such wonderful care of Carli and my home! I highly recommend Audrey - she is reliable and trustworthy and will love on your pets!”
“Excellent communication throughout Jackson's stay, my pup was in excellent hands. Jackson sent daily, or multiple daily updates and made sure Radar was always entertained. He left the house in better condition than I left it in too!”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was born. Growing up I wanted to be a vet. Although , that didn’t happen I still adore animals. I’ve bottle fed puppies, bathed neighborhood dogs and always cared for the strays around. My love for animals is eternal I am currently a part time hairstylist, looking to fill my days that I have empty with something fulfilling. With that being said I have Sundays available and throughout the week I have all evenings open and random days completely available I have a fenced off front and back yard. No longer have a dog of my own, family pup is no longer with us. So , I have open space and tons of love to give.
“Coy was awesome. Our pups can be a handful but he did great with them and stayed in communication with us which made leaving them so much easier. He is definitely going to be our go to sitter/dog walker.”
About: I'm new to dog walking as a career, but I've had pets of all kinds my entire life. There's always been a cat or a dog in the home. My family had a cockatiel for almost 20 years. We also had guinea pigs, an iguana, and African frogs. I genuinely love animals of all kinds and have experience taking care of many. While I might not have as much professional experience, I have many years of personal experience caring for my own pet as well as friends and neighbors. My schedule is mostly open. I am, however, usually busy around noon Monday - Thursday. But I am free before or after. I also often take our kids to school or events in the morning and afternoon/evening. But I am willing to work around these times. Because I am new to this, I am leaving my schedule open, but I may adjust or narrow it depending how busy I become. I live with my partner and her children. She has one adult daughter and two, twin teenage girls who have ASD and ADHD. We have one senior cat who is very shy. Our complex has a dog park, and there is is waking path nearby that runs along a creek. We have a small, fenced patio with grass, dirt, and plants. We also have a child safety gate that I could use to separate or contain pets if needed. There is also have a basement bedroom that is separate from the rest of the house via the garage. We would love to pet sit some dogs or a friendly cat. Our dog passed away last year and the girls have been begging for a new one. This would be a great opportunity for us to spend some time with different kinds before getting our own. It would also be very therapeutic for the girls. Note for clarification: My family will not be responsible for the caretaking. I will be the one taking care of the pets.
About: Is your dog an adventurer? Does your pet crave a break during the hectic work day to sniff new sniffs and bark at new squirrels? Does your dog love long walks and sunsets over the mountains? Then I’m the sitter for them! My senior dog and I like to maintain and help maintain your routines to allow dogs to be themselves and explore the world around us in a safe and supervised environment. I've cared for dogs and pets since I was five or six and have over 25 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and health needs. I am Pet CPR and first aid trained. I can provide routine medical care, daily training and positive reinforcement, and specialize in love and care for senior pets. Your adventure-pet will be able to stay fit or get fit depending on their age, needs, and your comfort. Nature walks on-leash are a great option! I only board one pet family at a time, which gives me the opportunity to be diligent with your cats and dogs. It’s like they are at an exclusive resort when staying with me and Dulce for the day or for the weekend! I work primarily from home and love an enriching break for myself, Dulce and for your pets! We take multiple breaks during the day for fresh air and to get good stretching in. If your dog boards with us, we will take a minimum of two walks (am and pm) and will very likely visit one of my two on-site dog parks. Your home is your pet’s castle—please share any rules, expectations, and needs with me in advance to make sure we are all a good fit. With a long background in trusted positions, I will care for your pet, property, and home with respect. I request the same in return, and thank you for that!
“India took great care of my sweet geriatric baby dog. She tolerated some house snafus and helped me out with cleaning up dog hair so I didn’t come home to ankle deep hair that my dog can easily make. She shared pics and communicated about how my doggo was doing. Would love to have her back!”
“Kamilla is fantastic! Its really hard to find someone attentive and responsible; Kamilla embodies both! She was great with the boys, asked questions if she was uncertain abput something and she is super communicative. We look forward to having her back.”
“Kathryn took amazing care of Zelda, our high energy Weimaraner, while my husband and I were traveling out of the country. Not only did we come home to a well exercised, happy pup, but our house was in perfect shape. Kathryn provided updates on Zelda's adventures and reached out with any questions she had about our place. We felt comfortable knowing that our dog was in competent and loving hands. It would be a honor to have Kathryn care for Zelda again.”
“Mariesa was wonderful! She is professional and communicative. We didn’t feel worried about our pups at all while we were away. We would definitely ask her to dog/house sit for us again and highly recommend her!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Buffalo Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,931 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Buffalo Creek. 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 Buffalo Creek 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 Buffalo Creek 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 Buffalo Creek 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.
