“Kelda did an amazing job watching over our mini zoo we have. She sent photos and updates of all the animals. Our animals really adore her. Even the skittish cat took a great liking. We will 1000000 percent have her watch the home and animals again!”
“I'm very thankful I found Silvia on a bit of short notice. She took great care of our pups and gave them a lot of love. I hope we can enjoy her services again in the future.”
“Christian went above and beyond taking care of our fur babies. He exceeded our expectations, kept in constant contact while we were out of the country. He was housesitting for us and was very respectful to ask for permission if he had something new come up. It gives us great comfort to know this young man is available to provide such excellent care and keep an eye on our home. We look forward to booking him many times in the future.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Ashley was absolutely fantastic! She treated our dogs like they were her own and watched over our house while we were on vacation. We will absolutely have Ashley watch our dogs again!”
“Mallory took great care of our dogs for a weekend while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures of them & responded quickly & took action when one of our dogs broke through the neighbors fence she was able to get them back quickly & even fixed our fence for us. We would recommend Mallory to anyone!”
“We were so fortunate to have Koresa sit for our senior cat, Walter, while we were out of town. Walter has some health issues for which he needs daily medication and some extra TLC. Koresa was so conscientious and professional and devoted. We had great communication from her while we were away - we always knew Walter was in good hands. On our return, our home was spotless and we had a happy kitty who had made a new friend. He was bummed to see her go! We would be so pleased to have Koresa as our catsitter again.”
“Shaianne was responsive on the onset of booking. Our dog is a 3 year old healer and can be a handful, but that didn’t let that stop her. She kept him active and followed our guidance. She also left the house clean which is always appreciated when coming home from a trip. We will book her dog sitting services in the future. TY!”
“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”
About: I’ve cared for pets for friends and family for years and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m dependable, attentive, and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and well cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, and giving your pets plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also make sure to keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I’m self employed as a photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. When I’m not photographing a wedding or session, I work from my computer and can easily plan my day around walks, drop-ins, and overnight pet sitting. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I know how much trust it takes to have someone care for your pets and stay in your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s normal feeding, walking, playtime, and bedtime routines as consistent as possible. I’m respectful of your home and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing everything is going well.
“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs - Archie and Frankie! She sent us updates daily with pictures. The house was clean when we returned and she even watered my outside plants. We will definitely request Sarah to pet sit for us again. Thank you Sarah!”
“Katelynn was wonderful! She took such great care of our boys while we were gone, sent regular pictures and updates, and helped us feel good about our vacation knowing our fur babies were in good hands. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Silas was magnificent with my dogs. They don't always take the strangers very well but Silas put them at ease very quickly. I was gone for a week and I was able to relax because I felt like they were in good hands.”
“Amazing Pet Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. She was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive from start to finish. They handled my 70-lb, happy-go-lucky pup with so much patience — even with his strong pulling on walks! I loved the updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. They followed his feeding routine perfectly and were super flexible with the late pickup time, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Cheree to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring. My dog adored her, and I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: My family has owned dogs and cats since before I have memories. I was that kid that preferred to watch Animal Planet and I've always been passionate about all critters. I started working as a stable hand with horses when I was only 10. I also worked at Sumner Veterinary Hospital in the boarding facility for a little over a year and received employee of the month twice in that time. During my time working at Sumner Vet I worked with all breeds and temperaments! It truly was some of the most rewarding work of my life. I currently have one 25lb mutt dog that I love and my first personal dog was my Rottie mix, Rocky. My family housed dogs and cats of every kind. I'm not skitish when it comes to "large personalities" and am confident in getting to know your fur baby at their pace. Know that with me, your fur babies are in loving, patient and experienced hands I currently work as a dog trainer and am attending school for behavior modification. I love walks myself and can't wait to walk your puppers. I have experience handling every kind of dog, and cat. From sweet and excited to shy or reactive. I can administer medications and am very thorough in following house schedules and plans

FAQs for House Sitting - Carbonado
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,561 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 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.
