“This was our 1st time using Rover, so I was a little nervous. Kelda was phenomenal! She was prompt, great with communication, and easy to work with. As for the care she gave to our animals, outstanding. You can tell she is experienced with dogs and has the natural gift of animals reading humans-our 2 German Shepherds loved her. We will definitely book with Kelda again and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a wonderful house sitter/dog & cat sitter. Thank you, Kelda, for taking such great care of our pets. ❤️”
“Mandi stayed with our two pets during an extended vacation. She provided regular updates and pictures. She was also graciously flexible when our return flights were massively delayed.”
“Magda was amazing and took great care of my dog while I was on a business trip! She sent photos and videos of my sweet baby constantly. She stayed later than expected when my flight got in really late! She is kind and very loving to my dog! I highly recommend her!”
“Shelby is so kind and takes great care of our pups! We have worked with her a few times and both of our dogs are relaxed and happy when she is here. She handles our special needs dog with care and sends updates while we are away. Highly recommend!”
“Christian has looked after our cats for years now and there’s no one we trust more. He always makes sure their feeding, medicine, and nighttime routines are followed. And he makes sure to send pictures and videos for us to see what cute shenanigans they’re up to. He’ll always be our first call when we need our four-legged babies looked after whether it be days, weeks, or months.”
“Daniel is amazing. Don’t hesitate to book with him. He took wonderful care of our pups and the house while we were away for over a week. He sent daily updates and photos. He was super motivated to do a great job for us and made sure everything was taken care of so we could enjoy our trip. We will for sure book with him again!”
“Beth was wonderful with Mowgli and Miles our 2 indoor cats! It was so nice to be able to have them in their own environment! Beth took great care of them and we are extremely grateful to have found her! We will definitely asked her to watch them again! 5 stars!”
“Lauren was fantastic to work with! She took care of my dog & cat for an extended trip over the holidays and I came home to two very happy boys. I greatly appreciated the updates, pictures, and clear communication. Highly recommend!”
“Had a wonderful experience with Silvia. It was our first time using her to watch our dogs. She had great communication and made us feel very comfortable. She came by and met the dogs before the official day. She updated us during our trip and sent photos. Would highly recommend and will be using again.”
“Jazmine did a great job watching over my pets, she communicated daily activities and anything additional that had come up. I received daily photos of my boys and could tell they were well cared for when I got back. Will definitely be a repeating customer”
“We are so thankful for Victoria! She took care of our 3 dogs and home for a weekend and we trusted her through out our stay. We appreciate her communication and the time she spent with our dogs. Thank you Victoria!”
“Whitley stayed at our house and watched our pups for a few nights. She communicated well with us and took such great care of them and our home. I would highly recommend her!”
“Alice was a great sitter! She sent lots of photos and updates and left the apartment cleaner than she found it! I’d love to have her back to watch Hazel again :)”
“Kacey took really good care of my 3 pugs while I was out of town even when it was a last minute notice, she took the time to answer all my questions (this was my first time trying Rover) and gave them excellent care while keeping me informed and sending me pictures of my furry babies. I feel relieved knowing I can go out of town and they will be in good hands. ❤️”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on pet care experience. My most recent pet was my Beagle, who I loved and cared for over 12 years. I've also recently helped care for my daughter's 3 dogs while she worked. In addition, I've house sat and provided pet care as a side job, so I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets a lot of attention and care. I'd love to treat your pets like family while you're away! My schedule is flexible 7 days a week at the current time, which allows me to be available and attentive to each pet's individual needs and routine. I provide attentive, reliable care for both pets and your home so you can feel confident while you're away. I follow your pet's normal routine closely, including walks, feedings, playtime and any special instructions, while making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I will treat your home with the same respect as if it were my own so when you return home, everything is just as you left it.
“Khaytlen did a great job with Warrior. When Warrior first came to her he was very fear aggressive. She did a great job desensitizing him to various environments including the mall. Also, he used to bark historically in the car when someone came close. Her balanced dog training with e- collar and prong collar really works. They are effective communication tools to use. I have never seen Warrior take to someone like that. The e- collar and prong collar teach the dog what you are trying to communicate.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I have taken care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. I have taken care of dogs with medication and special needs. All stages of their life are beautiful. I am available 6 days a weeks, Monday through Saturday. I am willing to work with your routine to keep consistent for your pets. I am available most hours of the day. I care for pets by having engaging walks, taking care of their physical and mental needs and caring for any dietary or medical needs. I will look after that they are happy and comfortable!
“Lily was amazing, she did such a good job at watching my 2 dogs. She gave updates with pictures and asked questions when she had any. She left the house spotless and my dogs had the best time with her. We will definitely be booking her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carbonado
This was our first time using rover and leaving our pets & home with someone else. I came across Kelda’s profile and after reading her reviews decided to interview and book her. We were pleasantly surprised with how comfortable we felt while away. She sent pictures daily and gave updates. Our pets were happy and the house was great when we got home. Very happy we choose Keldra and will book with her again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting - Carbonado
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 2,612 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carbonado. 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 Carbonado 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 Carbonado 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 Carbonado 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.
