“Stephanie was amazing, my dogs loved her the minute they meet her! She was prompt and courteous, sent pictures of the pups and responded right away to texts. Will definitely book her again!”
“Hunter is a great sitter for Ollie. He took good care of Ollie while I was out of town. He took Ollie to the vet when Ollie had an upset stomach. He also made sure the house was clean on the last day of house sitting.”
About: I am a stay at home mom ready to care for your pets. I grew up with dogs my whole life. Our 8 year old pitbull has just passed away and we love the company of different pups! I’m also a nursing student. I have skills ranging from puppies to senior dogs. We love to play fetch or go on walks with the dogs we’re watching. (I make sure to walk early morning or later at night when it’s hot). I am available any day and time. I am a stay at home mom and I do school on my laptop. I am ready to care for your furry friends. I had a dog for8 years that just recently passed away. He was the sweetest dog you will ever meet. We have a fenced in yard and three children.
About: I’ve had experience with many animals of different species for many years and can take care of all needs. I was a dog trainer and certified in dog and small animal wellness. I am currently a pet care specialist and do all that I can for all and their pets. I also have a degree in environmental science and pet wellness. I also like to applaud myself for customer service skills and being personable with everyone I meet. I will talk to you like I’ve known you forever and I strive to be someone those can be comfortable around. 😊 As a pet care specialist and pet owner myself, my schedule ranges from 8-9 am for spot cleaning and feeding, then around 12 I do pet checks, and around 5-6 is when I do final checks. For dogs, it follows the same structure with added enrichment and outside time in between. I have one dog and one puppy who spend time mostly outside and come in for breaks and food/snacks. I have a cat who eats twice a day and will occasionally be put in his stroller to go outside and enjoy the fresh air lol. And I have 2 guinea pigs who eat twice a day and will come out of their cage for enrichment and play time.
“Jasmin has watched our dogs before and she always does such a great job. One of our dogs is on a raw diet with probiotics galore and she does great with all the instructions. Such a lifesaver to have her stay in our house as our senior dog has never stayed anywhere else. We are blessed to have found her as our go-to gal! She gets our mail and keeps our plants alive which is just an added bonus! Thank you!”

About: I am a well experienced vet nurse now in undergrad with high hopes for med school! I've been a dog trainer all the way up to ICU nurse. I can handle most any situation so you can leave your home and your babies comfortably with me! I'm going to school online on a self paced basis so pet care is a perfect fit for me and my schedule. My 86 year old neighbor loves my 1 year old miniature poodle Boseman and loves her little farm so long stays away are okay with the both of us. My poodle Boseman has free range of my place but is also fully kennel trained if need be (used when I worked long hospital hours). He gets walks around our pond or goes next door with my neighbor's 50+ chickens, 2 cats, and 3 dogs. He gets fed twice a day and plenty of treats (super high metabolism lol).
About: Look no further! I have a geniune love for dogs. I understand the importance and relability for your baby. Your pet's safety is my priority. I have been a dog lover my entire life. I recently lost my beloved Mr. Jackson November 2023. We both enjoyed our morning /evening walks together. I can walk you fur baby Monday-Thursday mornings between 7:45 and 8:45 a.m. and some evenings after 6pm. I work remote and will never put your pet in a kennel. Your baby will be able to walk around as if he were in your home. I maintain a clean and secure environment.
“My dogs' mom couldn't care for the dogs at the last second before my trip. Karen not only agreed to do it, but she went over and above by staying at the house with my pups. They were so excited to see Karen and had a lot of fun. It was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend Karen for your puppy needs!”
About: I have years of pet experience, from chihuahuas and hedgehogs to Great Danes and snakes. I will take care of yours like they’re my own. I’m a college student with a very open schedule till school starts in the fall. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and onboarding with notice. I have a fenced yard, pee pads, experience with giving oral medication, and small dogs and cats to keep yours company, also room to separate.
“Holy was amazing. She was extremely accommodating and was able to help me out at the last minute. She sent pics the entire time and I could not be happier with this experience. She really made me comfortable leaving the dogs home, where they are most comfortable. 10/10 would highly recommend.”
About: I’m Ebony and I love caring for dogs. For the past ten years, I’ve been working to provide loving care to pups of all personalities and breeds! Currently, I have a rescue Fox Terrier of my own named Oreo. He’s five years old and my life truly changed after I adopted him from Petsmart. I understand how hard it is to be away from your furry friend and know that leaving your dog with a stranger can often be stressful and scary. I aim to provide honest, trustworthy, and skilled care to every pup and owner I meet. Your dog will be loved and watched carefully. I can also be in constant and consistent contact, sending photos, videos, and text updates to share the fun we’re having. I live in a wonderful, dog-friendly home in the Rodeo Palms neighborhood, where your pup can enjoy toys, treats, and cuddles galore! The area is quiet and is family-heavy, so it’s a safe and fun place to bring puppy friends. There are also lots of dog parks in my neighborhood, so with your permission we’ll hit the outdoors to meet some new friends. You’ll also love that my home has a fenced-in backyard - which makes potty breaks, sunbathing, and play time easy and fun! There is room to run and roam, bark and play, and get to know Oreo a little better. When I’m not pet sitting, I love spending time with Oreo as well as teaching children to read, travelling around the world, and getting my Zumba on! Your pup would be welcome to join me on any of my adventures. I can’t wait to meet you! On a stay with me, I’ll be sure to provide everything your dog needs in order to stay happy and healthy! We’ll stay safe in my fenced in yard and take frequent potty breaks. On a stay with me, I’ll be sure to provide everything your dog needs in order to stay happy and healthy! We’ll stay safe in my fenced in yard!
“Victoria was very communicative and responsive! She sent the cutest pictures of my dog and took excellent care of him. He is usually very anxious, but he was completely relaxed and happy in each picture, allowing me to also relax and enjoy my trip!”
About: Im Fabian and Im an animal lover by heart. I have my own dog, a chihuahua named Baby. A sitter just watches your pet, I interact with them. Your pet needs someone who is not only going to feed and clean after them, they need some interaction as well. Dogs are like humans, they need to be active and be entertained, something to keep they mind off the face that you're not there, I could be that distraction. I don’t work on the weekends, I’m a home body. I will have all the time to play, Care and interact with your fur babies I have a fenced yard and two fur babies of my own to keep your pet company, or I can crate if need be, you let me know!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, going to neighbors’ houses and helping my mom with her Rover pet sitting. I graduated in 2024 as a certified veterinary technician, and started working at the clinic I completed my year long internship at. I love all animals and can’t wait to help you find the perfect sitter for your pet’s needs! I currently hold a full time position at an animal hospital. I interact with patients daily and am in charge of patient husbandry and clinical care. I have a fenced yard for your angels with plenty of room for zoomies, and copious space inside for hanging out or playing. Nightly cuddles available on request, or pets can be housed in a kennel in a separate room based on owner and pet preference.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
“Ashley was the absolute best! Our pup Hank looked so happy in every photo and video she shared. He clearly felt right at home with her, will absolutely book Ashley whenever we’re out of town. She also took great care of the house and kept up with all of our detailed instructions for our dog, couldn’t recommend her enough!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,001 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chenango. 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 Chenango 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 Chenango 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 Chenango 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
