“Angelica is the one you need. She was wonderful with my four fur babies! She has a peaceful and calm energy that everyone appreciates. She communicates very well, is prompt, thorough, and above all genuinely cares. I felt completely comfortable leaving my house and babies in her care. I will be booking with her in the future! I can't recommend her enough 🫡🙂😇”
“Madison is AMAZING. She is just a great person who took care of my babies and my home just as I would. We have never left our cats alone overnight but circumstances caused the need to be gone for 8 days - to say I was nervous about how the babies were going to be is an understatement. Madison made sure they were taken care of and sent so many pictures and videos and updated us numerous times to let us know how everyone was doing. This is my first experience using Rover and I'm so happy I did. I love my friends, but no way they would have taken care of cats like Madison did. I feel like I can actually travel now as long as Madison is free to take care of everything for me ❤️”
“Meghan was amazing. She took on sitting Smoke very last minute and did not disappoint. Smoke is special needs pit bull and needs special person to care for him in my absence. I did not have to worry about his care while I was out of state! She sent a lot of pics and videos. Meghan exceeded expectations and I will use her again if she is available.”
“Austin is reliable, caring, and trustworthy. Always dependable, sends daily updates, and is always a pleasure. It gives me such peace of mind to know my pups are so well cared for in my absence.”
“Ren did a great job taking care of our Golden Doodle. It was great to be able to go out of town and to be able to leave our dog at home where she's comfortable and happy. Ren followed our instructions perfectly, and the house was cleaner when we got home then when we left. It was a pleasure to have Ren take care of Ginger. We will definitely book with Ren next time we go out of town!”
“Abby was great with my girl! This was just an overnight trip but she took great care of Elsa in the short time she was with her. Great communication! I plan to use her again in a few months for a week long trip I have.”
“This is the first time I've ever needed to hire a pet sitter for my senior cat, so I was very nervous about having a stranger in my home and how my fur baby would react. However, Jennifer eased my mind about the whole process. She was understanding and communicative, which was greatly appreciated. This was just an an overnight trip, but she will be taking care of him again soon when I'll be gone longer. It's such a relief to know I can get some R&R knowing that my pet and my home are in good hands. ?”
“Maria took excellent care of my babies and house. She provided daily updates with pictures. My house was left in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her for future visits.”
About: I have 6 years of experience pet sitting and house sitting. I’ve cared for hamsters, lizards, kittens, cats, senior dogs, big dogs, and puppies! I’ve also worked with medical dogs that needed medicine! Here’s a lot of what I offer! I can walk your dogs as many times as they need, change out litter boxes, feedings, play with them outside or inside, snuggle with them while you’re away, and look after your house and babies while you are on vacation! I’m a former Prek Teacher that wants to focus on my UGC career! I’m so extremely flexible and can meet your needs as much as you need throughout the week! I can work all week walking, staying the night or just doing day check ins! I have a dog baby of my own so I know how important they are to keep safe and happy. Because of my teaching experience I’m very OCD so instructions and routine are important to me. I’m also a Christian and everything I do is for the Glory of God and to please Him!
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends and family, including overnight stays, daytime drop-offs, and extended stays. I’m usually the first person people ask for a sitter given that I work remotely! I’ve had pets, both dogs and cats, all my life. I absolutely love animals and treat any as my own. I’m caring, patient, and will definitely give your babies all my love!! I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care. I can easily work regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and cuddles into my day. Given this, I have full availability all week! I have a 1,500 sq. ft. apartment, so there is plenty of room for your furbaby to comfortably roam and play! I share the apartment with my partner, Liam, who is a huge animal lover and very friendly with pets! I’ll always be the primary and sole caregiver for your pet, but he’ll be around the apartment here and there during their stay to give some extra love. :) My community also has an on-site dog park, multiple grassy areas, and paved walking trails, giving us lots of options for potty breaks, walks, and playtime. 🐾 In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow their instructions and their pet’s normal routine closely. Regardless of where I’m caring for your pet, I make sure doors and gates are secure, pets are appropriately supervised, and they have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, play, and rest. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos throughout your pet’s stay so you always know your furbaby is safe, happy, and doing well! ❤️
“Colleen filled in at practically the last minute and we are so grateful. Clover, Loki, and Harley had a wonderful peaceful time with her while we were gone for the day. I highly recommend her and we'll be booking her again in the near future!”
“Connor has taken care of Jax numerous times. Each time, Connor loves on him, takes pictures of him, and takes him on walks just like I would. My pup is my baby, and while I hate leaving him, I know he is always spoiled and loved when I leave him with Connor. I couldn't ask for a sweeter person to care for Jax. You can also count on Connor to take great care of your home. He knocks out small items effortlessly. However, this past trip, I was in the middle of selling my house. Connor helped me with the entire process while he stayed! He prepped the house each day for showings and it remained immaculate.”
“Shelby was great with Relli. I gave her my notes on Relli’s daily schedule, my long list of housesitting requirements, and she followed all my instructions wonderfully. Shelby sent lots of pics and videos, so it was very reassuring that Relli was getting lots of attention, and quality care. We could see that Relli really enjoyed Shelby, since she played a lot with her, and didn’t seem to miss us. Also, Shelby is very respectful of our house, by keeping it very tidy like we do. I highly recommend Shelby for house/dog sitting, and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Aunya was fantastic. She made sure all four dogs were well taken care and even cleaned up as she left the house. She was very responsive and provided check-ins. I would definitely let her take care of my wild pack any time!”
“Any is amazing!! She went above and beyond to make sure our baby was well taken care of while we while on vacation. She went above and beyond. She provided great pictures. She also checked out mail and took out the trash. Don’t hesitate to book her, you will not be disappointed!!!”
“Meagan was great!!! She followed all the instructions I left and sent great pictures of my babies! She was communicative, punctual, and left everything clean and put away. I’m so happy to have found a sitter I trust. I will definitely be booking with Meagan in the future!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Capshaw
Madison did a fantastic job caring for my two pets for overnight boarding in my home. She sent pictures of them and provided comments about how they were doing. House was tidy when I came home and she even took out my garbage. I already booked with Madison for two other upcoming trips!
This was our first time having someone house-sit and care for our dogs, and Carson did an excellent job. He went above and beyond to take care of them, provide us with updates, and keep the house clean. We really appreciated the peace of mind while we were on our family trip. Highly recommend Carson!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Capshaw on Rover is $44.94 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 373 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Capshaw. 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 Capshaw 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 Capshaw 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 Capshaw 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.

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.
