“Fiona took wonderful care of our home and senior dog. She made sure to provide daily updates with pictures and left our house immaculate. I would recommend her to anyone needing pet services and plan on using her services moving forward.”
“Kyla did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Jade, who can be quite a handful and has some unique training requirements. She exudes a warmth and kindness that Jade bonded with immediately, and she rose to the training challenges with total competence and professionalism. I would absolutely hire her again.”
“Allison was absolutely fantastic with our two girls! She provided great updates, lots of pictures, and our dogs seemed like they didn’t miss us at all when we got home. She left our house cleaner than she found it. As someone who can experience some anxiety when I leave our dogs with a new person, Allison is someone who made me feel instantly at ease. I didn’t worry at all when I was gone. Thanks so much, Allison! I’ll definitely be rebooking.”
“Irina is wonderful. Very reliable and professional. My dog adores Irina and I can tell feels really cared for with her. I can tell how good he feels with her with how he runs to her side when she arrives and how it takes him a moment to realize I’ve come home (because he is cuddled up with Irina instead of watching the door). I feel completely at ease and confident when he’s in her care.”
“Anita took excellent care of my dog Malcolm. He loved her instantly, and throughout the week she sent lovely updates and photos... So much so that I started to believe that Malcolm was enjoying his vacation more than I was :) I would definitely ask her to care for him again.”
“She did a great job caring for my needy pup and keeping my house in order during an extended trip. It gave me peace of mind while I was gone, which I appreciate a lot.”
“Liliana and Gerardo took excellent care of our two dogs and house while we were away. They were quick to respond, followed all care instructions and we came home to healthy and relaxed pups. As an example, Liliana added in additional walks before they went out to ensure the dogs had really done their business after observing our dogs tendencies to go out in the backyard and lounge instead. Will definitely book again.”
“Rachel continues to be an amazing sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure Rooney is comfortable and happy and is wonderful about keeping in touch. Rooney loves spending time with her, and it’s such a relief having a sitter I can trust completely while I’m away.”
“Mariah was great! Zuko can be difficult, but he thrived with her. She kept us updated on him, sent great pictures, and played with him a lot. Mariah was responsive, kind, and patient. We're so thankful she took such great care of our dog and our place.”
“Hong stayed with us for a full week this time, and once again she was fantastic. She kept up her wonderful communication the whole time, sending regular updates and photos so we never had to worry, even with such an extended stay. Our dog was clearly well cared for and happy when we got home, and the house was left just as clean and tidy as always. It says a lot that she handled a full week with the same level of care and reliability as a quick overnight — we can't recommend her enough!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years around the world! Neighbors, friends, families and acquaintances have all trusted me with the livelihoods of their loved ones. I can administer medication, go on as many walks as needed, drive or walk to the dog park or just cuddle on the sofa if you pet loves that too! I work as a school teacher and am an online grad student but am able to come and go as I please so my schedule is quite flexible! I am very mindful of your pets care, safety and security while they are in my trust. I can crate your pet, calm them down and care for them as per your instruction.
About: Hi! I’m Yvonne, a lifelong animal lover with several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Whether it's a quick potty walk or a longer adventure around the neighborhood, I love helping dogs stay happy, healthy, and active. For cats, I provide calm, respectful care – clean litter, fresh water, food, playtime, and plenty of gentle attention (when they want it!). I'm reliable, communicative, and experienced with all types of pet temperaments. Whether you're at work or away on a trip, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets with love and attention. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits on both weekdays and weekends between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM. Whether it's a mid-morning walk or an early afternoon visit, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate recurring bookings and short-notice requests whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. For dog walks, I always use secure, well-fitted leashes and harnesses, and I avoid busy or unsafe areas. I never walk multiple dogs from different households at the same time, so your dog gets my full attention and care. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions closely — whether it's feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, or giving meds. I respect your home and your pet’s routine, and I always double-check that doors, gates, and windows are secure before I leave. You can count on me to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know your pet is happy and in safe hands.
About: I’ve been a dog owner and caring for friends’ and family’s dogs since I was in high school! I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and matching their energy to give them the best care possible! I’m currently a post grad looking for a part time job! Therefore my schedule is open for now, which gives me plenty of time to look after your dogs for longer periods of time, if needed! I’m overly cautious! When it comes to someone else’s fur babies I want to make sure that they’re properly taken care of and also having fun at the same time! I’m someone who likes to send photos and or update to the owners (if they wanted of course) to follow up with how they’re doing!
About: Hi! I'm Nicole, and I've been caring for dogs through Rover for nearly ten years. I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your pet, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I've had dogs my entire life, including Labs, rescues, and senior pets, and have experience with dogs of many different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new trails, playing fetch, or simply curling up for a quiet afternoon, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I work primarily from home, which allows me to provide lots of companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I love spending time outdoors, and dogs in my care typically enjoy multiple walks each day, along with plenty of rest, enrichment, and affection. I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so I make communication a priority. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for. I'd love to meet you and your dog. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I work primarily from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. I do teach a few yoga classes in the evenings, but pets are typically left alone for no more than about three hours at a time. I'm available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I provide overnight house sitting so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I take the time to learn your pet's routine and preferences and follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes and bedtime routines. I'm experienced caring for puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and pets with special needs, including administering medications when needed. Dogs are always walked on leash unless you've told me otherwise, and I prioritize safety, consistency, and calm care at all times. I'll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! She’s a true dog person—warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. Our dog is older, with some anxiety and medical needs, and Nicole handled everything with incredible care and professionalism. She followed our detailed instructions to the letter and made sure our pup felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. What really stood out was how much our dog adored her. She took the time to play with him, snuggle, and give him the attention he needed to feel at ease. We also appreciated the thoughtful updates and sweet photos she sent throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Nicole went above and beyond and we feel so lucky to have found her. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Xaniah is the best! Our guy Astro had been sick over the last few weeks and she took such great care of him during the day. She is always on time & takes great care of our home and our guy Astro! She’s highly responsive & is truly lovely!! Highly recommended her for all services!! She’s has stayed with Astro, walked him, and has housesit at all different times for us.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 8,218 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Christie. 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 Christie 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 Christie 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 Christie 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.
