About: I’ve taken care of pets of all shapes and sizes: fish, chickens, goats, horses, and of course cats and dogs! I started working with dogs and training them when I was 7 years old in county 4-H, and then when I was in high school I assisted with puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I helped raisers socialize young puppies from 10 weeks to 18 months before they went back for further training. I’ve helped family and friends raise puppies they can live with and love, and my own dogs have been the best part of my life. I’m a current graduate student at Embry-Riddle, and I’m reliable, safe, and experienced in animal care. I’d love to work with you and your fuzzy family members! I work early shifts, so I’m available most of the afternoon and Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I love taking walks in the early morning, before it gets too hot and the sidewalk is still nice and comfortable. My favorite thing is letting the dog set the pace, and sniff to their heart’s content. I can visit most homes in Prescott and Prescott Valley during the workday if needed, and have flexibility for other events or longer trips if needed. I make sure to keep as close to the expected routine as possible whenever I pet sit. Everyone likes to know when they have to get up in the morning or when breakfast is coming, and your pets are no different. I’m comfortable working with dogs of varying personalities, and can understand when they might be more open to play or socialization, versus when they just need some calm and relaxation.
About: I have 5 shepherds of my own, I ran a shepherd rescue, have worked with many training and rescue facilities in the valley, and have vet tech experience. I’m always happy to spend time with more pets I drive down in the valley every day to go to the gym, so any pets on the way are easy for me to swing by for a visit! Every pet has individual needs. Im happy to cuddle and pet some people’s pets for hours, but I’m also happy to respect some pet’s personal space and just be there to make sure all their needs are met.
About: I have 10 years of experience working on my parents ranch. I know how to care and work with farm animals including hamsters, rabbits, cats. I care for my farm animals on a daily but I am flexible to schedules. I can house sit on the weekends or the week days. I have raised my animals sense birth. They are my number one priority in my world. When I watch someone else animals, I act and care for them like they are my own.
“Zoie was absolutely amazing with our dogs and cats. She stepped in last minute and was incredibly flexible when our plans unexpectedly changed and we got stuck needing an extra night. Knowing our pets were in such great hands made a stressful situation so much easier. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared for our animals like they were her own. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and felt completely at ease the entire time we were away. We’re so grateful for her kindness, flexibility, and help on such short notice. Highly recommend Zoie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to watch their pets!”
“Jennifer did an awesome job house sitting our almost 2yr old goldendoodle! She kept us well informed with pictures and video and the house was immaculate when we returned. Shiloh is definitely still in puppy mode and she handled his less than desirable traits like a pro. He also seemed very content and happy when we came back home. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“First time I've used a pet sitter so was a little nervous at first. Zack was great at communicating and sending pics. 'Kids' were perfectly happy when I got home and house was immaculate. Thank you Zack for peace of mind when I travel from now on!”
“We couldn't have been happier having Malina as a pet sitter for Josie. It was our very first experience doing all of this with her. Malina stayed overnight and was very conscientious about keeping things in order. She came over before the stay to get acquainted with us and Josie and discuss schedules and routines, so Josie was familiar with her when she came over. She works remotely and was here the entire time. It sounded like they had a wonderful time together and Malina was very communicative with us, sending pictures and texts. She had wonderful comments about Josie. Josie loved her and so do we! Wouldn't hesitate to have her sit for us again.”
“Scott was awesome, reliable, professional and great to work with. He was very always responsive and made sure to give me updates twice daily. I hope to work with him again.”
“Kami was amazing with Jake and Tasha. She made sure both Jake and Tasha got their daily medicine and all their daily puppy loving. Kami stayed with the puppies in our house for 5 days so the dogs would be secure and safe in their normal environment. Tasha and Jake were happy when we got home, however they definitively seemed sad when Kami left. Kami will be our number one choice from now out. She's similar in cost to taking the pups to a kennel, however this way the puppies get to stay comfortable in their own home and there was someone at home to bring the Amazon packages into the house. Lastly, I think the house was cleaner when we got home than when we left. Thank You so much Kami. Tasha (65 lbs) and Jake (100 lbs).”
“Anna took outstanding care of our three kitties while we were on vacation and our home was perfect upon our return. She sent frequent updates with pictures of our fur babies playing and being their goofy selves. The communication was excellent which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away. Highly recommend her friendly, professional service.”
“April and Gary were the best!! Gary stayed at our house and took care of our three dogs, six cats, one cat requiring 4 different medications twice a day. She also required Gary to feed her wet food multiple times throughout the day. I requested that he send photos of each fur baby every morning. He knew all their names right away. Followed all our instructions. April was able to work with me when our trip coming home was delayed a few days. We will definitely use them for all our future trips. They both were wonderful.”
“Left our cats to Shelley for a week and they love her! Shelley took good care of them and regularly gave us updates on how they were doing. She communicated inadvance if there were schedule adjustments. She was there with the cats the whole time which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I recommend her service. We will sure to be return customers.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have four of my own, so caring for pets is something that comes naturally to me. Through the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities, and I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to friends, family and others when they’ve needed a reliable sitter. I currently work a low-stress, remote job on weekdays, so I can be attentive to your pets for most of the day, whether it be taking them outside, playing with them, taking them on walks or whatever they need. When caring for pets, I make it a priority to keep them feel safe and comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, whether it be feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications and any special care requirements. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and preferences to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away.
“Samantha is amazing!! She came over before booking the stay to meet Zoey and go over her routine and get to know one another. And she is the absolute sweetest! So happy to have met her and know that she is close by! ”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was 10! I worked with dogs in a facility for daycare and boarding and I enjoyed that. From loving the pets to feeding them giving medication and baths and a bunch of love! I’ve worked with pets my whole life. I have 3 dogs of my own so they are my priority! I have open availability and I’m free for whenever I’m needed! I have a fenced yard. 2 pups of my own that are very friendly and love meeting new friends. I have trails next to where I live that I take my pups to so they can explore. I will accommodate to anything to make sure your baby is all good and that you feel reassured about the safety of your pet!
“Jessica was professional, knowledgeable and very experienced in caring for our 10-year-old chocolate lab, Kira. During Jesica’s first meet and greet, it was clear that Kira felt at ease with her, indicating they would be a great match for all involved. Jessica properly administered Kira’s medications during her 5-night stay in our home. Jessica not only took good care of Kira but also our home. Jessica also took the time to spend with Kira, allowing her to enjoy the outside in our backyard throughout the day. Finally, Jessica sent us daily photos of Kira with updates on her day. We considered other dogsitters but were very happy we chose Jessica to take care of our little one. In short, our entire experience with Jessica was very pleasant, and reassuring. Jessica should be acknowledged for her excellent service and commitment to her clients. Her commitment to her clients far exceeds that of other dogsitters we have used. Jessica will be Kira’s sitter for our future trips. Thank you, Jessica. Rafael and Laura”

FAQs for House Sitting - Bumble Bee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 503 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bumble Bee. 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 Bumble Bee 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 Bumble Bee 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 Bumble Bee 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bumble Bee. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% can help with daily exercise
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.
