“Destiny was wonderful. She watched all 5 of our animals. 1 cat, 2 senior Chihuahuas and 2 puppies. That is not an easy task. Upon returning home I could tell they were all well taken care of. The house was clean (which isn't easy with 2 puppies) and she even left music in for them when she left. A kind soul that I will absolutely trust my animals with again.”
“Sydnee was an absolute shining star of a sitter. She took fantastic care of my big boy Clyde (130 lbs, Great Pyr), and was very prompt and responsive to all messages. My house was well taken care of as well. I really appreciate how detailed her messages were and how her updates included lots of pictures from different points of the day. I really felt that she took it to heart to stay close to Clyde and give him the companionship and support he needed. I would 100% recommend her to anyone in need of dog/house sitting, and especially those who need a person who can handle a big breed.”
“Had a great experience with Gabriela staying the night at our place both my dog and my cat! Came home and everything was clean, and the pets were clearly well taken care of and happy :)”
“Rebecca was incredible and saved us from a huge ordeal after someone cancelled on us the day before a big trip to dog-sit. She responded promptly, was obviously very comfortable around animals and spoke fondly of her families doggies. She has a LOVELY, happy energy and I would highly recommend :)”
“Olivia was did a wonderful job taking care of my 11 year old dog. They went out for regular daily walks and she even kept me updated with pictures. My house was clean when I returned and the flowers/garden had been watered regularly in my absence. I would not hesitate to book Olivia again for dog and house sitting.”
“Alivia did an amazing job with my reactive, 60 lb Old English Sheepdog. Willa took to her immediately, which is rare and means she has the BEST vibes. She stayed with Willa in our apartment while I was out of state, gave regular updates, wasn’t afraid to ask questions, and I arrived home to a happy, healthy sheepdog and a clean apartment.”
“Lucinda was such an amazing pet sitter! She was so good with our 2 dogs and cat from sending us pictures and videos daily to even bringing them Christmas presents 🎁 Her communication was great and I felt at ease knowing she was there watching our pets. She deserves more than 5 stars ⭐️. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter ♥️”
About: Im a lifelong dog lover with four dogs of my own. Active, reliable, flexible, and experienced with puppies. I’ll treat your pup like family. I work for myself, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to provide your dog with attention, walks, playtime, potty breaks and companionship. I’m unable to host other dogs in my home because I have four dogs of my own, but I’m happy to provide care through walks, drop-ins, and house sitting.
“I'm very happy with Maggie who stayed at my home with two dogs and a cat for 3 days, 2 nights. She's obviously an animal lover and they all like her. My home looked great on my return and all the pets were happy. I am using Maggie again in the near future and am comfortable recommending her for overnight stays.”
“Kaitlyn was great with our 8 year old doberman/shepherd mix. She was easy to communicate with and flexible with our schedule changes. Our house and yard were clean and well taken care of as well. We'd definitely have her back!”
“We are very impressed with the care Christine gave the boys. She is very knowledgeable and patient which helped with my senior dog l who is a picky eater and the young pup who is not immediately everyone's best friend. Also, I appreciate how available she was on short notice because life for us is often hard to plan so far in advance. Absolutely planning to use Christine again soon.”
“Julia was super kind and reassuring since this was my first time leaving my boys with someone in over a year. She was prompt and had previously come to meet them. Followed their routine and messaged me before medicine and with pic updates. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again 🖤”
About: I’m a mom to a toddler, preteen and two of my own pets. I’ve had big dogs my whole life, & various other types of pets. I’d love to help take some stress off your plate by taking care of your pet just like you would! Last minute notice is fine, but one day notice is preferred so I can adjust my schedule accordingly. Though, I can likely do same-day requests! I strive to be as flexible as possible. While my first name is Janet, I do prefer to be called by my middle name, Ruby. Feel free to ask me any questions and reach out if you need anything! I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I’m happy to adhere to your requested times, whether that’s early morning, mid-day, or late evening. Weekends are perfectly fine too. I strive to be open, honest, trustworthy, and respectful. I believe leaving your home just as you left it and taking care of your pet just as you would is vital to my beliefs and services.
About: I've taken care of pets since I was a youngster. I had a diabetic dog for years, so I'm aware of the need for medications. I LOVE dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I am an avid walker, so would love to get a good hike in with your dog/s. There is nothing better than curling up in the evening with a dog or cat to snuggle with. I'm retired so I'm willing and available to travel and stay at your house thereby relieving the stress your pets endure staying in a kennel or at other people's homes. If I will be taking care of pets for several days, I would prefer to care for the pets in your home. I currently don't have accommodations to care for pets where I live.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cheshire
As usual, after a week away in the summer Gabriela took excellent care of our home, garden, and most importantly our pets. Our cat and dog were relaxed and happy, the house was clean, laundry done, garden harvested and thriving. We appreciate Gabriela so much and feel secure knowing she is caring so well for our furry loved ones and home.
Gabriela is an exceptional pet sitter! From the very beginning, she was kind, professional, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. She kept me updated with thoughtful messages and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, my dog, Emma, was happy, relaxed, and obviously well loved. Gabriela went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and cared for, and she even left my home spotless. It’s rare to find someone as trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring as Gabriela. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabriela to anyone looking for a pet sitter who will treat your pets like family. I will absolutely be using her services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 895 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cheshire. 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 Cheshire 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 Cheshire 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 Cheshire 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
