“We love Andrea! She has stayed with our little love, Cleo, twice now and it’s been a dream for both experiences. Andrea is thoughtful and communicative, leaving us messages and sending updates about Cleo’s adventures. I always know that Cleo is in great hands when Andrea is here. We will definitely continue to work with her!”


About: Pet owner with lifelong experience caring for cats and dogs, including fostering and volunteering with the shelters. I'm an active, outdoorsy sitter who enjoys hitting the trails, river or ocean with dogs and treats every pet and home with care, respect and attention. I also have 10 years of property management experience and pride myself in being a trusted housesitter. Also available for plant care and watering. Feel free to inquire about availability you don't see. Available for overnight, drop in, hotel/Airbnb vacation sitting or daily/weekly walks. I can't wait to help you out! Able to care for pets at clients homes. I value your privacy and handle your home with care and professionalism. Can care for small dogs in my home or drop off visits for larger dogs - I'm located near many trails and river spots for fido.
“Not everyone is comfortable with big dogs - so it was so great that we found Dominique to house sit with our boys (GS and GS/Lab mix)! They were in love with her, following her around the house wanting all her attention. I especially liked the long walks she took then on each day. She even got our one dog, Kailo. to go a farther distance than usual and kept up with Koda (energy of a puppy)! Thanks, Dominique!”

“Melissa is the best! She has watched my cats twice now and takes such great care of them. My cats are high energy and she spends lots of time playing with them and making sure they never get bored. I also appreciate her level of communication and updates that she sends! Melissa is my first choice when booking a Rover!”

“Elika did an incredible job watching my two large dogs (who can be a real handful, especially with strangers). She clearly is comfortable with animals, and made me feel at ease.”

About: Since I was a child I have taken care of the family dog. They are like family to me. I have worked at a dog spa since May of 2025 so that I have experience on handling dogs. I can bathe your dogs and brush them but not groom them. I love animals like family. I also take care of my sister’s golden retriever when she’s away on trips. I work Tuesdays-Saturdays from 10am-6:15pm so on my work days I can house sit your pets, take them for walks and take care of them after work and my days off I’m available anytime. I have a cat at home who is spoiled. Every day she gets groomed, loved and cuddled with. She couldn’t be more happier. I even have a filtered water fountain for my car to drink out of I clean every two weeks. I enjoy cleaning her food bowl every morning and give her dental treats to make her gums and teeth healthy. When it comes to clients pets I’d do the same as if they were my own pet very loved and spoiled. When I had my family dog she was very loved and spoiled as well. Every day do walk her, brush her, feed her and cuddle with her making the happiest dog she can be. All animals I treat equally.
About: I began pet (and house) sitting for others at the age of 15 and have continued on and off for the last 25 years. Many close friends have pets I watch regularly, from seniors to puppies/kittens, big to small, rescues and designer alike. I've had pets of my own for most of my life. We got our first puppy when I was nine years old - a yellow lab / Collie mix who I wanted to name Skunk due to the white stripe down his forehead. But the family prevailed with the name Buddy (and I later agreed it fit him perfectly). Buddy lived 16 long years and taught me everything a young person needs to learn... responsibility, compassion, unconditional love, and eventually letting go. We still remember his toothy grin whenever he was caught being naughty. In my mid-20’s we rescued a tiny kitten from the streets while living overseas. After that first can of tuna on a rainy night, Nuni became family and gave us joy and companionship for 10 years across two continents and several big cities, ultimately settling down with me in Sonoma county for her last chapter. Her head-butt nuzzles were the best. Four years ago a human came into my life along with her canine companion, Atlas. I began caring for Atlas on weekends when his (human) mom was away and we bonded quickly. Towards the end of his life, I was his nearly full-time caregiver, administering multiple medications, cleaning up accidents, tailoring walks and playtime to his worsening arthritis, and doing all the things in between to give him a good quality of life. I'll treat your pets with as much love and attention as if they were my own. I work part-time doing handywork and gardening while also restoring our older home, so I have flexible time in between to spend on pet care. I'm a detail-oriented person and am happy to follow specific plans for your pets' needs. Generally, I enjoy spending time with animals and look to engage in activities that fits each individual. Safety is always top priority and I try to be prepared as best as possible.

“Andrea kept the house tidy and sent many updates of Ollie. She initiated conversation about our trash day after noticing many neighbors took the trash out. She took our trash out and back in. Thank you for helping us and taking care of ollie.”

About: Animals have been a cherished part of my life for over 30 years, and I understand that our pets are truly members of the family. Whether they’re playful, affectionate, independent, shy, or a little quirky, I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and individualized attention. I have extensive personal experience caring for both dogs and cats and appreciate their unique personalities and needs. From energetic dogs who love attention and companionship to independent cats who prefer affection on their own terms, I enjoy building trust and helping animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a registered nurse, I bring an additional level of responsibility, compassion, and attention to detail to pet care. I’m experienced in following detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or well-being. I understand how especially important this can be for senior pets or animals who need a little extra patience and attention. I also know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved companions in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide the same warmth, respect, and attentiveness I would want for my own pets, while keeping you connected through regular updates, photos, and open communication. Whether your furry family member needs companionship, playtime, reassurance, or simply a calm and caring presence, I would love the opportunity to get to know them! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to thoughtfully plan pet care around each animal’s individual needs. I enjoy peaceful environments, spending time with animals, and maintaining familiar routines. I believe consistency and companionship make a meaningful difference in helping pets feel comfortable while their families are away. I prefer to discuss each pet’s schedule, personality, and care requirements in advance so I can make sure we’re a wonderful fit. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and entrust them with a beloved family member. As a registered nurse, I’m accustomed to maintaining safe environments, following detailed instructions, and paying close attention to changes that may require additional care or communication. I respect each household’s routines, boundaries, and preferences. I take care to maintain a clean, peaceful environment, secure doors and gates, and follow feeding, medication, and household instructions carefully. I believe in open communication and will provide updates and photos throughout our time together. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and a home that has been treated with care and respect.
“Laura took wonderful care of our pups and house while we were away for 1.5 weeks. She was very communicative (but not overboard) and went above and beyond with keeping our house in good shape. We would book her again!”

She took excellent care of our home, everything was clean and tidy upon our return. We knew Theo was in great hands. I highly recommend her, and we will definitely hire her again.”

How I Care for Pets in My Clients’ Homes When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, comfort, and consistency. Here’s how I ensure a positive, secure environment: 🐾 Safety First • I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, medication, and walking routines. • I double-check doors, windows, crates, and gates to make sure your pet stays safe and secure. • I keep an eye out for anything hazardous—chewable cords, small objects, or anything that might be unsafe for curious pups or cats. 🏡 Respect for Your Home • I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for mine. • I clean up after myself and your pet, keep things tidy, and maintain the routine your pet is used to. • I only access the areas you allow and never invite anyone into your home. 🐶🐱 Comfort & Routine • I stick closely to your pet’s daily routine to keep stress low and comfort high. • I provide the level of attention your pet prefers—whether that’s lots of playtime, calm companionship, or extra snuggles. • I use positive, gentle handling to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. 📸 Communication & Transparency • I send regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. • I communicate promptly about any questions or concerns and keep you informed throughout the stay. ❤️ Building Trust • I take time to bond with your pet at their pace, using patience and positive interactions. • I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative so you can feel confident leaving your pet and home in my care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels secure, happy, and loved—while giving you complete peace of mind.
“This was Kat's first time sitting for our kitten Peanut, and she exceeded our expectations across the board. Communication was excellent — she shared regular updates and sent us genuinely fun photos that we loved getting throughout the trip. When we hit an unexpected schedule change, Kat was completely accommodating and made it a non-issue. The house was just as clean as we left it. She followed everything we asked, from the litter box routine to stripping the bed before we got back. Most importantly, Peanut was visibly happy and well-adjusted when we returned — you can always tell when a sitter has actually engaged with your pet, and she clearly had. Peanut was so comfortable with Kat that we were able to fully relax and enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely have her sit for Peanut again. Highly recommend.”

About: I seem to have an intuitive connection with animals, and have had cats and dogs my entire life. For the past 15 years, I have been grooming my dog, and my friends’ dogs, and get a lot of satisfaction from doing so. I find it fun to visit their dogs, and walk them, as often as they let me. They know that I am attentive, proactive and passionate about my work with dogs, and I am in the process of learning CPR for dogs. I also enjoy giving them massages. I currently work outside of the home in the evenings, and take care of dogs in the mornings and afternoons, until 4 pm. I can also make a quick stop after 10 pm. I have a fenced backyard, and a little dog of my own, Roney, to keep your fur baby company and to ensure your dog has a pleasant stay.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 604 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Camp Thayer. 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 Camp Thayer 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 Camp Thayer 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 Camp Thayer 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Camp Thayer. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
