“This is the third time I’ve used Isabella and her sister Great experience- they were on time very dog loving and respectful of our home and Teddy Bear !! We intend to use Isabella over and over again It’s great to have a trusted sitter ! Thanks, Dave”
“If we could give Madison 6 out of 5 stars, we absolutely would! She takes such amazing care of our girls, and it’s obvious from how excited and comfortable they are with her every time. This was also the first time we’ve ever had someone stay overnight with them, and Madison was an absolute rockstar. Knowing Khione and Mimsy were so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter, and we honestly wouldn’t choose anyone else. We can’t recommend Madison highly enough!”
“Stephanie was great. We have a very anxious dog and he doesn’t warm up to many. Stephanie and Frankie were friends in no time. She made us at ease with multiple updates during the night. We were very comfortable with her and will definitely use her again when Frankie is back in Florida.”
“She did an amazing job watching over our two cats and house sitting for us while we were gone for the weekend. She sent photos and kept up updated & the house is in great shape. Thanks so much! Looking forward to rebooking soon.”
“Giselle was the best, she stayed at my place for a day/night and it went amazing. She sent lots of pictures of my dog and followed all the instructions I left for her. Would highly recommend!”
“Jasmine was great with our 4 month old German shepherd Athena who can be a little weary of strangers. We had never left her and were so nervous but Jasmine was amazing with her and sent us updates and pictures and videos. Highly recommend her and will book her again!”
“Aaron is a great! He is so responsible unfortunately we had a problem with our home lock and he handled it with ease. He communicates well and lets us know our fur babies are well taken care of. I will continue to rebook Aaron!”
About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets over the years! Dogs, cats, tortoises, lizards, frogs, you name it! I started with friends and family as soon as I could drive and have since worked at formal pet care businesses for close to a decade. I have a pretty free schedule right now, so I'm able to easily accommodate to your needs! I can work with early morning or late night check-ins with a heads up. I like to make sure I go over anything I might need to know, including emergency meds, emergency contacts, etc. I find it's always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to someone's furry friend! They're family after all!
“Michael is amazing with animals- I really can’t put into words just how helpful he has been in watching over my new family member, Shadow. He sends me photos and updates, and actually helps me beyond standard sitting by also giving me great training tips. I highly recommend him!”
“Adrianna did an exceptional job with our dogs. We were on vacation for a week and she sent us multiple photos and updates daily, putting our minds at ease that they were in good hands. She went over and above the call of duty with so many updates, extra walks, and plenty of belly rubs. The dogs clearly love her too!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life, so caring for animals isn’t something I’m just trying out—it’s something that has been part of my life for decades. I’ve cared for pets at every stage, from energetic puppies and curious kittens to older pets who need a little extra patience, attention, and care. One experience that especially shaped how I care for animals was adopting a geriatric dog whose owners had passed away. Taking on an older dog taught me that sometimes the best pet care is simply being patient, paying attention to the little things, and making an animal feel safe and comfortable. What I bring to pet sitting is that same mindset. I want your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away—not like they're being "watched" by a stranger. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, quirks, and needs, and I treat every pet as an individual. Whether your dog wants to play all day, your cat prefers to observe from across the room, or your senior pet needs a slower pace and extra TLC, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’m happy to work around their normal routines, including meals, walks, playtime, medications, and downtime. When house sitting, I’m able to make your pet a priority while still maintaining a normal daily routine. I understand that every pet is different—some need lots of activity and attention, while others are happiest with a quiet, comfortable presence nearby. My goal is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for someone’s pets and home. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine, and I follow the owner’s instructions and the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, feeding schedule, medications, and any special needs before their owner leaves. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or anything that seems unusual, particularly with senior pets who may require a little extra observation. When house sitting, I keep the home secure, clean up after the pets, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. My goal is for both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable, safe, and confident while they’re away.
“Thank you both for taking care of Happy. You took good care of Happy and left the house in good shape and Happy is happy and I appreciate the extra effort you took with him and me. Robin 😊”
About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs since 2019! At the time I was living on base, so it was primarily for base population! I am a dog auntie to my best friend’s pup who i watch and play with whenever she is away. I am looking forward to meeting your pupper!! I’m currently in between jobs at the moment, so I’m fairly flexible! When I am back to work I am typically available randomly throughout the week, but I’m sure we can work something out! I can easily crate pups if needed, I will do treat rewarding (if that is how the client prefers), plenty of exercise/play time and ensure bathroom breaks are taken within a timely manner!
“Linda was an amazing sitter, she was very attentive with my puppies and so sweet. She brought them toys, played with them, and let them out very often while caring for our 2 pups. She also was very quick to respond to me while I was away and she sent me lots of pictures and updates as well. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Erin was absolutely outstanding! She was arrived on time and was extremely communicative, sending us updates daily complete with adorable photos and videos of our babies. She even went out of her way to bathe our two big pups before we returned from our trip, stripped the guest bedroom sheets, and I’m pretty sure she vacuumed for us! One of the most stressful parts of retuning from a long trip is coming home to a dirty house and dirty puppers. She made the transition home seamless and couldn’t have taken better care of our two dogs and two kitties while we were out of town for 5 days! We will definitely be booking with Erin again for our next trip!! 😊”

Yaritza was absolutely incredible! She came over the morning of our trip to spend time with our pups and go over their routines and everything they needed. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated on how they were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond! When we got home, we found that she had even changed the sheets on the bed she used and put the ones she slept on in the wash. Such a thoughtful gesture! We couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We loved having Yaritza take care of our pups and will absolutely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!
Alyssa and Lyndon were so great with our dog Otto! They spent so much time with him, kept him to his regular schedule, and made sure he got his normal long walks! Also kept us super updated with lots of pictures and videos along the way, which we loved!! Super super nice and definitely dog lovers, would definitely book again!
Savannah was absolutely wonderful with our one-year-old German Shepherd, Ares! She was so flexible and accommodating, especially with the unexpected changes today, and even stayed an additional hour to help us out. We really appreciate her kindness and care for our boy! 🐾🩵
As always, when I leave Pretty Kitty in Sami’s care I have complete peace of mind while I’m away. Sami sends me pictures and tells me of the funny antics they experience together. Sami also is very respectful of my house and tends to the kitty’s daily routines, including giving meds as prescribed. I highly recommend Sami as a very professional, compassionate pet sitter.
Sarah stayed with my dog for 11 days in my home. She is a lovely person and a wonderful caretaker!. My dog was happy and serene when I got home and my house was immaculate. I hope Sarah is available the next time I go away - in fact, I may plan my travel around her availability!
Crystal was an absolutely wonderful housesitter and dogsitter! She took great care of our senior dog and our home, and was also great about communicating and providing updates (and we loved that she sent plenty of cute photos and videos too). We highly recommend her!
Mary is fantastic! It’s the 2nd time we book her to sit our dogs and we’ve had a wonderful experience both times. She’s proactive and if she thinks there’s anything she can do to better handle our dogs, she will ask questions and make it happen. She loves our babies and we love her!
Andrew is phenomenal and I’ll happily be requesting his service again soon :) he completed an in home stay with my pup and I know they took great care of him. He was incredibly flexible with my scheduled as well as Milo’s. Happy to have met Andrew and had great vibes on out meet and greet too!
We could not be more happy with having Nicole house/dog sit. From the moment we met to her leaving the house we had no worries about our pups being in good hands. Our pups are older (12.5 & 15.5 yrs old) and though they are for the most part very chill, they do require a lot of attention. Our little girl has three different medications she is on daily, and have to be given at specific times of day. She is also incontinent and has to be let out to pee every 2-3 hours to avoid accidents. They food is Farmer's Dog and the list could go on of important things that need to be tended to daily. Nicole had no problem at all with any of this. We were able to have a nice vacation away on the beach without a worry. Nicole sent updates with photos and even asked questions to make sure she understood my notes accurately. This was her first time staying with them and the house was spotless when we got back, with a youtube channel on our tv playing beautiful music. The dogs were very happy and I am pretty sure they miss her already!! Highly recommend Nicole (Eunice) !! Hope to have her back soon!! Very grateful-- thank you so much Nicole!!

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 Cheval 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 Cheval 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 Cheval 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 with handling special pet needs in Cheval. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
