“Katelyn was great while watching our dog over our long vacation- Great communication, along with some pictures of our pup! Katelyn even stayed an additional night for us when we ran into some car trouble and wouldn’t be home when planned. Thanks Katelyn!”
“Megan has watched Layla numerous times at my place and never have any worries when I'm away! Megan continues to provide exceptional care and it's obvious how much she cares for animals. My dog recently developed a neurological disease causing her to drag her back leg and Megan went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and help her move around as needed. Thank you again Megan!!”
“Kevin stayed with my 3 big boys while my wife and I were on our honeymoon. We didn't worry at all and Kevin kept us posted with updates on the boys. Would love to have Kevin sit with my boys in the future without hesitation - He did a GREAT job!”
“Bethany was outstanding! On time, super friendly, and so great with communication, pictures and updates. My puppies loved her and we will definitely keep her in mind for next time!”
About: Pet Sitting Profile I’ve been around animals my entire life, and I’m always happiest when I get the chance to care for them! I’m moving back to Grand Rapids, Michigan on September 15, and I’m hoping to buy a home in the summer of 2027. In the meantime, I’ll be staying with relatives, so pet sitting and house sitting feel like a great way for us to help each other. I can earn some extra money toward my future home while getting to spend time with some amazing animals, and you can have peace of mind knowing your pets and home are in caring, responsible hands. A little about me: I’m 35, gay, and a friendly, responsible professional who works in hotel sales. I’ll be working fully remote, which gives me plenty of flexibility to be available and give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I currently have a 3-year-old large dog will be getting to vacation at his grandparents. Thankfully, my parents will be helping care for him. which allows me to take on pet sitting and house sitting opportunities. My experience with animals goes well beyond dogs and cats. I’ve had two saltwater aquariums with fish, corals, anemones, and more, as well as a large freshwater aquarium that I maintained for years. Growing up, I also owned several reptiles and have experience helping care for chickens, ducks, and other animals. Whether your pets need walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, aquarium care, or simply someone trustworthy around while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. I genuinely enjoy animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own! I am relocating back home to Grand Rapids on September 15 and I will be working in a fully remote capacity from 10:30am-6pm. I will have a very flexible schedule and no commitments outside of work so last minute needs are easy to accommodate. I do travel for work periodically but that will get communicated well in advance. I have my travels through April on my availability already. I am most comfortable caring for the pets in their own environment. I will be living with relatives upon my return so cannot care for animals in my home unless there is a specific situation that is discussed in advance. I’ve watched relatives and friends pets for years and I am comfortable in many different housing situations!
About: I am a retired Special Education Teacher. Your pet will get spoiled in my home or yours! I am a compassionate, caring person. I have been providing care for dogs for 4 years. I have plenty of references to back up any recommendation that you made need. My last pet was a puppy named Bella that I provided care for. I watch her 30 hours a week and helped potty train her. I loved her as if she was my own. I was Gramma Lisa to her and we formed a special bond which I do with all the pets I watch. I have had dogs in my life since I was young. I tell my friends that I will know I am heaven when I see my past dogs around me.
“Emily was great with Atticus! She left the house in impeccable order, communicated consistently and even cleaned up dog vomit like it was no big deal! We would love to book with Emily again!”
About: I have cared for a dog for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I will treat your animal with the same love, patience, and attention that I gave my own. As a social worker, caring for others is a big part of who I am, and that naturally extends to animals too. I am dependable, gentle, and attentive, and I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I am comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping owners updated while they are away. I work Tuesday through Thursday from 8-3:30. I also have 2 daughters, which is a full time job on its' own! With that being said, my availability would typically be M,F,S,Su 11am-3pm and after 8pm most days. I will care for pets in their own home, where they are already comfortable with their normal routine and environment. I will follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box or potty needs, walks, playtime, and any other specific care requests. I will also make sure doors are secure, pets are safe before I leave, and the home is treated with respect. I am happy to provide updates so owners know their pet is safe, cared for, and doing well while they are away.
About: I have nearly 5 years of pet-sitting experience caring for cats and dogs for family and friends. I’m attentive to feeding routines, fresh water, and keeping litter boxes clean so cats stay comfortable while you’re away. I respect each cat’s personality—whether they enjoy playtime or quiet company—and I also have experience giving oral medications if needed. My goal is always to provide calm, reliable care you can trust Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my schedule at Grand Valley State University. I’m completely available Friday through Sunday, available after 12 PM Monday through Wednesday, and after 4 PM on Thursdays. I’m happy to plan visits around your pet’s routine to make sure they receive consistent attention and care while you’re away When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure pets are safe before leaving, keep their space clean, and communicate with updates so you feel confident they’re being well cared for. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and reliable experience for both you and your pet.
“We recently moved across country where we literally don't know anyone! Our biggest angst was finding someone we could trust to stay at our house and care for our dog and cat while we travel. Well, we found a gem...Josh is amazing. He sent pictures of our animals and updated us via text throughout the weekend. We are thrilled to have found Josh and will surely book him again in the future.”
About: I love, love, love animals! I currently volunteer at the SPCA in Kalamazoo and it’s something I look forward to every week! I also have a 4 year old Irish doodle who loves making new friends! I grew up with 2 doodles and my love for animals is infinite. I love going on walks, working on skills, playing ball, ect! They will be loved and provided by a happy environment when being cared by me! I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can be home with them majority of time! I wake up around 6/7am every morning so they will also be able to go potty right away in the morning! For safety, I’ll always walk your dog on a leash/harness (whatever is provided) on a walk. I have a fenced in backyard and I also make sure doors and gates are securely closed, and I monitor your pet at all times during visits. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust in every home!
“Very nice and friendly and updated us frequently about how our pet was doing. We would highly recommend Augustine and plan to book her for the next time we need a sitter. Augustine exercised our dog daily and made sure he was comfortable at home”
“Isabelle was amazing! She house sat with our dog and cat! Our cat had an accident 2 days before leaving which required him to need meds and be in a confined space. She gave him extra love and attention and definitely made it easier leaving him behind. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Jessica is a kind, friendly, and reliable sitter. I really appreciated having her care for my dogs while I was out of state for my wedding. She made sure their needs were met, followed feeding instructions, ensured they had fresh water, and let them out to potty regularly (including several middle of the night tummy upsets) - which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Jessi kept me updated on how the dogs were doing, sent photo updates, and was very pleasant to work with throughout the stay. I’m so thankful for her help and would recommend her to pet parents looking for dependable care and a sitter with a warm, personable nature.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Casnovia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 895 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Casnovia. 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 Casnovia 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 Casnovia 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 Casnovia 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.
