“Taylor house sat our 3 year old Golden Doodle and did a wonderful job. Our pup was well looked after and happy and she left the house as she found it. She was in touch over the stay with pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”
“Connor is great! She’s super responsible and attentive. She watched my two older dogs while I was gone on a business trip. She got nightly updates and left everything looking great.”
“I want to gatekeep Ria because she is the greatest, but I won’t! She is a skilled caretaker of dogs, kind and reliable, gentle on our animals and our home, easy to communicate with and overall highly recommended. Am already rebooking her for our next trip. Thanks Ria!”
“Emily was wonderful when she stayed in my home and watched my dogs for a few days! She was punctual, professional and was very respectful of my home. It takes a lot of trust to invite someone to stay in your home, and Emily was wonderful in this respect! My dogs were well taken care of, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a caring person to take care of their pet.”
“Salem was absolutely amazing for Oliver and did everything that we asked and more! She was very communicative and gave us total peace of mind while we were far far away from home!”
“Kelly was so great. She helped us out when we were in a bind for an unexpected doctors appointment, and could not have been nicer or better with Zorro. He loved her right away. Hopefully she can stay with him again!”
“Alina did a great job dog sitting for Hatley over a long weekend. He seemed to really enjoy her company, was well cared for, and Alina left the place in great shape. Thanks, Alina!”
“Our pup is not usually 'open to new relationships' but she quickly warmed up to Claire. The weather posed significant challenges during Claire's stay but she managed everything with aplomb. Great job!”
“Lauren was great with our very large dog. She stayed at our home for several days and even gave our dog a very thorough brushing. We will definitely be booking with Lauren again.”
“Paola was excellent. Very communicative and sent plenty of videos and photos of our babies. She treated them like her own. We would absolutely recommend her and will be asking for her services again!”
“It seemed like Willy had a great time with Christina! I loved getting photo updates of him and what he was up to. Willy is usually nervous around strangers/new people but it seems like he warmed up immediately to Christina! She stayed in our house and kept it clean and took in our packages for us without us having to ask. So thankful for her help in watching him and we will definitely be re-booking with Christina!”
“Our mini golden doodle was well taken care of with Emi. She was responsible, responsive (sending pictures) and we came home to a cleaner house than when we had left. We would highly recommend Emi!”
“Amy was amazing and I am confident she treated my 2 dogs and 2 cats better than I do. She got one of my dogs to chase a ball, which I have never been able to do. She stayed with mu furry clan and I returned to an immaculate house. I could not recommend Amy enough and will definitely request her again.”
“Chelsea provided house sitting for our French Bulldog and English Bulldog for 2 weeks while we were overseas. She sent daily updates and pictures. The dogs seemed happy in the pics! There was a problem with our air conditioner which was taken care of the very next day. She handled the situation like a champ. We had to extend our stay for one extra day. Chelsea was very flexible and accommodated our request to add another day. We returned home with our house in order and very excited dogs. We will continue to use her services because she is dependable, flexible and kind.”
“Aiden did an exceptional job watching our dog and house sitting while we were away for a week. Our dog was clearly well-loved while we were gone, with plenty of outside time and playing. Aiden kept us posted with updates and pictures, and asked insightful questions that showed how on top of things he was. He was very respectful of the house and left it in great condition. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Natalie came into my home and made shy anxious Bruno her friend. I really appreciated her patience! She not only took great care of Bruno she took care of my home while I was gone.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Calvander
Taylor was WONDERFUL with our pup, Bowie, a one year old that we are rehabilitating. This is the first time we’ve left Bowie. Taylor had to cope with her panic and they spent a lot of cozy time together this past weekend. We are grateful for Taylor’s calm presence and her ability to go with what Bowie needed. We can’t recommend Taylor highly enough! Thanks!!🐾
Lauren W. Was Great!!! We were using Rover for the first time and were nervous about leaving our Senior dog. We were very impressed by Lauren W's service. She took care of his food, Medications and gave him lots of love and attention. Lauren W. was very reliable, trustworthy and had great communication with us. Lauren W. took many pictures of him daily to reassure us that he was fine and enjoying her. We will definitely book Lauren W. again as our sitter for future trips! We found a jewel!
Olga and Stepan took great care of my two dogs while I was away. They sent me pictures, administered meds, took them for walks, and gave them plenty of affection. One of them was home with the dogs at all times which I am sure they enjoyed since I cannot work from home. I highly recommend them and will definitely request them again.
Sophia was excellent! From the initial contact and meet & greet, through the end of our trip, Sophia delivered a wonderful level of customer service that is so rare these days! Sophia bonded so well with our dog, Roxy, and took excellent care of her and our home. Absolutely amazing!
Cassie was absolutely great! Our dog liked her right from the meet and greet. She was communicative, professional, and caring towards our boy and made us feel very comfortable leaving him to her care. House was clean and organized just as we had left it when we got back. We definitely plan to reach back out to Cassie in the future!

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 Calvander 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 Calvander 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 Calvander 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.
