“I didn't know anyone could be so amazing. Thank you Rebecca. You kept me informed every day. I received wonderful pictures. My pups love you. :) I'm always leery of starting with a new sitter but I was out of options and you worked out great. You are my number one go-to.”
“Our review is based on our meet and greet with Michelle. Because of an unforeseen personal situation, we were not able to move forward with this booking. We believe Michelle would be a fabulous sitter and hope she will be given that opportunity.”
About: I have a gentle and loving spirit. I accept all animals into my world. The more the better! I have a lot of love to give. I work part time so I have plenty of extra time to spend with all the pets. I love being outside and going for walks and spending time with animals as much as I can. Whenever I'm with any pets, they have my full attention and care. I'm happy to sit with pets as long as needed and give them the love and care.
“Caleb did a great job with our 3 dogs we had one that needed meds twice a day and he did great. I would recommend him to sit your fur babies he stayed at our home and left it clean.”
“Teyler is amazing! So glad we found him. Great communication, my pup loves him. He has knowledge and skill when it comes to training and patience like I’ve never seen. Great find on Rover and will 100% use again”
About: Hi, I'm Haley and I have over 10 years of experience as a veterinary technician. I have had the pleasure of working with a range of animals including cats and dogs. I am skilled in medication administration as well as animal behavior and handling. It would be a pleasure to be part of your pets care team. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop in visits and overnight stays. I look forward to working with your pet(s)! I will work with you to provide excellent care for your pet within your own home. I am willing to take dogs in my home as long as they get along well with my own dogs and cat. I am unable to watch cats within my home at this time.
About: I love dogs and cats and I've been caring for them since I was a teenager. I currently have three dogs and two cats that I deeply cherish. They're not pets, they're family. I have five years of experience volunteering at pet shelters where I've fed, exercised, bathed, trained, and cuddled hundreds of cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I'm a retired IT guy and pet-sitting is my full-time gig, now. I've chosen paws and whiskers over 1's and O's. It was a no-brainer because, the older I get, the more i connect with pets and enjoy the finer nuances of their personalities. I'm available for pet-sitting, dog-walking or house-sitting weekdays and most weekends. I will be happy to sit with your pets at your home or watch over your home while you're away. I'll feed them, walk them, brush them, play with them, or just hang-out and keep them company. We'll do a meet and greet before your first booking to introduce me to your pets, facilities, food, etc,...
About: I’ve grown up on a farm & helped raise dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, cows, ducks, & hamsters! I have a love for all animals :) I am a law student, so when I’m not in class, I can drop in to care for your pet! I’m also available anytime on weekends! I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to play in. I also have a male (neutered) dog who just turned two. He’s very friendly and trained! I have a large crate if your pet needs to be crated for any reason, otherwise they are welcome to snuggle on my couch or bed with me!!
About: I work at a doggy day care and I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels—puppies to seniors. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, basic training, and administering medication when needed like i did for my elderly dog. Whether it's high-energy pups or shy seniors, I hope to adapt to their needs with patience and love. Im currently free for a good amount of the week and would love to help care for your animals! I hope to hear from you soon I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment, follow all care instructions, and keep you updated so your pup feels secure, happy, and at home.
“I seriously cannot recommend Angela enough!! I needed a last minute dog sitter while I was in Cancún for a few days and she truly came through. She was kind responsive and so easy to work with which immediately put me at ease. She sent me the sweetest pictures of my dogs while I was away and you can tell she genuinely cares and treats your pets like her own. My dogs were happy comfortable and so well taken care of. Angela is trustworthy dependable and incredibly kind. I’m so grateful I found her and will definitely be booking with her again. If you’re considering her do it your pets will be in amazing hands 🤍”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, as well as provide plenty of love and attention. At home, I’ve cared for my own pets daily ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well groomed. I also volunteer with the SMU feral cat community, helping feed, monitor, and care for stray cats on campus. My experience spans from puppies and kittens to senior pets, and I’m comfortable with all temperaments and sizes. Schedule: I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for cats throughout the day. I regularly help care for SMU’s feral cat community, so I’m used to feeding, socializing, and checking on cats at different times. I’m available for visits and drop ins most weekdays after 2 PM and weekends all day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet and always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I make sure spaces are secure, remove hazards, and monitor pets for any changes in behavior. I currently have a puppy (a bichonpoo) and understand the importance of both love and structure. My motto is “life is too short let them sleep on the bed,” but I also believe discipline is key in shaping well behaved dogs. I’m happy to bring my puppy along for companionship if approved, but I always ask first since I respect that every pet and owner has different boundaries.
About: I have experience with house sitting both large and small dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise and care. I also can do plant care as well I currently do doordash and art commissions from home so I have pretty open availability right now! I do have two cats at home so I still need to check in on them as well. I always make sure everything is tidy and that each pet gets equal amount of care. Set daily and weekly routines for them and always check over them to make sure there's nothing abnormal.
“After our dog proved too challenging for our previous sitter mid-trip, Rover support was able to efficiently connect us with Bryan and he quickly proved himself capable and reliable. Our dog is something of a velcro dog and tends to develop separation anxiety. Compounding this she is quite storm-scared and the weather took a turn for the stormy during our trip. Bryan was able to step in quickly, transition smoothly with our previous sitter, and effectively attend to our dog’s needs as well as the needs of our cats. He clearly has a passion for pet care, and I speak for both myself and my household members when I say that we were very grateful to receive such diligent service. In addition to his stellar care for our pets, he was attentive to the other needs of the household and asked good questions whenever anything was unclear.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 130 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cartwright. 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 Cartwright 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 Cartwright 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 Cartwright 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
