“Ella was very responsive during our initial contact and spent time with us at our house meeting our dogs and getting to know their routine. She sent photos and a report every day during our five days away. She takes dog-sitting seriously as a career and has prepared herself to be a qualified professional.”
“Marikita was absolutely wonderful to work with! She took excellent care of our two dogs and took extra care to keep them in their normal routines while we were away. We were kept in the loop with detailed updates every day and plenty of pictures. I really feel like we received top level service, and I never worried about our pups. I would definitely recommend working with Marikita!”
“This was our first time using Rover - so we were a little nervous - but Anna did amazing with Elly! She was very attentive to her needs and dedicated a lot of her day to our needy dog! :)”
“Liliana was great! She was very communicative and let me know what was going on. She gave me updates of our dogs along with photos. The house was in the same condition as we left it and I appreciate how caring and kind she was with our dogs. Her Osito came over to visit and he was very well behaved and got along great with our three dogs. I am happy she was able to watch our dogs while we were out of town.”
“Sarah was wonderful to work with. She took the time to come out and meet us and our 2 puppies before sitting for us which was comforting. Once she did, she did an amazing job and took excellent care of our pups. She sent pictures and answered any texts while we were away.”
“Amazing communication and such a caring sitter! Sarah took wonderful care of our pups and kept us updated the whole time with messages and photos. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely book with her again!”

“Cordelia did a great job! She went above and beyond with bringing our dogs on multiple walk and keeping us updated with pictures, videos, and messages. We will definitely rebook when when need a house sitter again!”

I offer professional, reliable pet care services, including daily dog walking, overnight house and pet sitting, specialized puppy care, and attentive support for elderly dogs.
“Katrina and Kevin were excellent. I will definitely keep them in mind when needing to use a let sitter again. They communicated well with us, followed all our instructions for the dogs, and spent lots of time with our dogs.”
“Mia did a great job watching over our dog, cat and home. We were in a pinch to find a sitter and she was reliable and trustworthy! She left our home spotless and sent us a ton of photos with our pets. They really took to her and we could tell they felt comfortable and loved while we were away. I would definitely book Mia again for our next trip, we are so happy we found her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cheney
So happy we booked with Cameron! We experienced a last minute cancellation 2 days prior to going on our trip. We were so relieved that Cameron was available and it relieved so much stress! One of our dogs had to have ointment applied to his paws and he made sure he got that on schedule. I’m very detail oriented and left a long list of things of the dogs behaviors, how they’re fed & what they may like to do and Cameron read over everything to make sure he cared for our pups the way we would, and he sent the best photos and videos! It’s been a much more relaxing trip thanks to him, we didn’t worry about if they were happy, they had so much fun with Cameron!
We have 3 spoiled pups and Hannah took extra care of them all in our home. They don’t normally get comfortable or even play the first time someone would watch them, but they did! She made sure all of our requests were met. Walked all 3 at the same time, fed them, played, spent time outside when it was nice out and communicated with us plenty. Thank you, Hannah!
Jennifer was amazing with our 3 set-in-their-ways pooches. She got them walked and fed as instructed and went above the bar to snuggle them and do extra chores around the house while we were gone all week! We had no worries as she sent check-in messages and photos to let us know everything was going well. Would highly recommend her!

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 Cheney 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 Cheney 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 Cheney 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.
