About: Hi neighbors! I’m Jennifer, a dedicated and experienced animal lover with a strong background in professional dog handling and facility care at fast-paced daycares (like Camp Bow Wow and Lucky Dog), I know how to keep pups safe, happy, and well-cared for. Because my main morning schedule at a dog daycare wraps up early, I have open availability every afternoon for regular walks, midday potty breaks, and drop-in visits. Whether your dog has high energy to burn, needs a reliable midday walk while you're at work, or just some loving companionship, I bring a gentle, structured, and attentive approach to every visit. You’ll get reliable communication, complete peace of mind, and plenty of photo updates while you're away. I'd love to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾✨ Let me know what you need and I can accommodate for you as needed! I’m excited to meet your fur baby and have a good time! I will keep your furbaby safe. Your pets day will be filled with exciting walks, playtime, and lots of love. I’ll make sure they stay active and happy!
“Morgan was amazing - daily updates and pictures - arrived to a clean home - and most importantly, my dog was happy and well exercised when I got home! I will definitely use Morgan again! She even sent me pictures of my flowers that bloomed while I was away!”
About: I've loved dogs and cared for them all my life. I have a special place in my heart for the scent hound breeds! I understand what dogs need to be comfortable and thrive, and I am honored that you put trust in me to take care of your four-legged family members. I'll spoil your babies as I do my own. I am experienced with rescue dogs and those that came from traumatic situations. I can administer medications safely and effectively. My goal is to relieve any anxiety you might have when leaving your fur baby in someone else's care. I offer "pupdate" photos, video chats, and welcome any check in texts and phone calls. I'm happy to set a met and greet with you soon! I have three dogs of my own that are very well spoiled and cared for. I do not have human children, so I can focus my efforts on your baby. Pets are family members in my home. They have free reign to rest where they choose while they are here. I love pets and cuddles! Dogs are not crated unless requested or absolutely necessary or directed. I feed in separate rooms to avoid possessive behaviors, and dogs are always monitored and supervised while playing together. I take directions very well and will make sure to care for your babies just as you would if you were here with them.
“Brittany was so wonderful to our pups! She did an amazing job following our instructions and communicating with both me and my husband. I will have her back in a heartbeat if we need another sitter! She works from home so she was able to be with our pups consistently which is super important for me. Thank you Brittany!!”
“Blyth was wonderful with our pets and treated them with great care. She paid close attention to their needs and even played stimulating games with them. She left the house spotless and was very respectful of our belongings. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Lexie was (is) a wonderful caretaker! She has a gentle demeanor that won over our anxious shelter pup. She sent lots of great photos, and was able to coax him to go on a solo walk rather than wait for us. when he realized she was leaving he’d bonded with her enough that he said goodbye!”
“We left our 2 chiweenies for the first time ever with India while we were in a hotel visiting, and she did a wonderful job! She arrived on time and was so nice! Our dogs are anxious around new people so they were barking at first and I had to put them in a separate room until they calmed down. Within 20 minutes of us being gone, India sent me pictures of them calmed down and finally sitting in the same room as her. When we returned, one of them was even sitting with her on the couch. 110% recommend, will definitely use her again if we're ever in the area!”
About: I’ve worked with pets of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I take pride in building trust and creating a calm, loving environment for every animal I care for. My experience has equipped me to handle special needs, emergencies, and unique routines with professionalism and compassion. Your pet’s well-being is always my priority. I am currently completing my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, which allows me to maintain a structured and reliable schedule. I also work as a licensed QMAP, where I care for elderly individuals and assist with medication administration and daily support. Because of this background, I am detail oriented, dependable, and comfortable following specific care instructions. My school schedule is flexible, and I am available for drop in visits and scheduled care throughout the week. I prioritize time management and clear communication, so you can expect consistency and updates while you are away. Going away? I’ll treat your furry (or feathery or scaly) friends like family while you’re gone. With experience caring for [dogs, cats, birds, etc.] of all breeds and personalities, I’ll ensure they stay happy, safe, and loved in their own home or mine!
“Ivan was very professional, upfront, reliable and knowledgeable! He worked with my little Ghoul to help him be a better behaved little guy when visiting new places. Highly recommend him for any pet needs, training, sittings, walkings!! Very dedicated and detailed sitter!”
About: I grew up in rural Indiana breeding AKC Labrador retrievers with my parents, so dogs have always been a part and a passion in my life. I do provide basic unlicensed positive reinforcement training upon request Weekly I'm available daily Tuesdays-Fridays. I am also available for overnights tuesdays-thursdays. Multi day sittings are also available if my schedule allows. Multi day sittings need to be scheduled two weeks in advance minimum. With each new client I require a free visit/consultation to see your pet where their most comfortable and allow them to become comfortable with me
About: Passionate Dog lover with 20+years of experience providing luxury in-home care for dogs. Reliable, patient, and trustworthy. I have experience in walking and running with dogs. I feed them on schedule and can administer medications. Available for drop-in visits, boarding , and walks. I’m dedicated to providing a safe and comfortable environment for all pets under my care. I also have two friendly dogs of my own. If your dogs need their own space, I can accommodate that as well. Pet care is a daily routine with feedings and runs everyday! I’m currently working from home and I stay very active running my miles. Your dogs will stay active. I have a fenced yard with two dogs to keep yours company. I can also separate them if needed. I can easily watch them play in the backyard from inside my house.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. Right now, I have two sweet senior cats and one young pup who keep me company. Because of them, I know the importance of patience, love, and consistency when it comes to caring for pets. I enjoy walking, hiking, and training dogs, and I have just as much love for cats. I live in a wonderful neighborhood with nearby parks, dog parks, and beautiful streets—perfect for fun, safe walks and happy pets. I’m currently in night school from 5–10:30 PM and typically wake up around 9 AM, which means my days are wide open for pet care. I already go on daily walks and hike weekly, so fitting your pet into my routine feels completely natural. I keep a consistent daily rhythm while staying flexible around your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment in a walkable neighborhood with lots of nearby parks, perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. I have plenty of room for a crate if needed, and I can create a separate, comfortable space for your pet if they need some quiet or alone time.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with lots of experience caring for dogs, especially small breeds! I grew up with poodles my entire life. I still watch my parents poodle for a couple months in the summer. I’m reliable, attentive, and love going on walks, playing, and making sure every pup feels safe and loved. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and care! I am a PA. I work in person 3 days a week and am typically gone about 10-11 hours, and then work from home 1 day a week. I love going for walks everyday. I have a nice common area grass/ park right outside our front door which makes it easy to take the dogs out. I would love to have our own dog but currently I travel too much. I do not have a private yard as we are in an apartment but there is a common green area/ park right outside our front door which makes it easy to take a dog out on a leash. In the past, I am happy to take the dogs out as much as needed. I will also happily crate the animal as needed as well.
“Bryson did a great job, and we will definitely book again. We have older dogs with lots of different medicines so it's always a little nerve-wracking to leave them. But we returned to happy pups and a clean place with adorable pictures to boot!”
“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.”
About: I’m a 29 year old nurse, who owns a 7 year old well-trained eskipoo and I am looking to make some extra cash and help others with their furbabies! I’m currently in the office part time and have plenty of time to play and walk your lovely floofy kids! I walk my dog several times a day, going to parks and on other adventures. I would love to take your pups with us! I have a yard with a fence and a pup that can keep yours company. I am good with long walks, play time, fetch, and snuggles. Anything you and your dog needs/wants, I can provide!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Byers is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $62 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,970 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Byers. 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 Byers 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 Byers 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 Byers 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
