“Marie is the best! Our dogs had a wonderful time with her and we felt so safe having them in her care. Marie is an excellent communicator and tended to our home, garden, and two dogs beautifully. We can’t wait to have her back!”
“Shannon is a absolutely amazing with Geralt! She treats him like family and I can tell how loved he is. She's super responsive and attentive about his care and all things house related when we're gone. We feel like we can really depend on Shannon. :)”
“Isabel is the best! We felt so confident in Randy’s care while we were away. She was very consistent with sending updates everyday with pictures. Although not her job, we came home and our home was spotless. We appreciate her so much with our anxious baby and she gave updates of how she saw his confidence boost throughout her time with him!”
“Anja was great with our two dogs. One of our pups is nervous around new people. Anja was patient and compassionate with her. We felt very comfortable about leaving them with Anja. We knew they were in capable hands.”
“Marissa was AWESOME with our 2 dogs and 2 cats! She made our shy dog super comfortable, took great care of everyone and our house, was prompt and reliable, and communicated frequently during our 4-night trip. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again if she’s available.”
“Hannah was wonderful! She came for a meet and greet to meet our dogs in advance and then sent pictures and took great care of our pups while we were out of town. We have a rescue who is anxious and takes medication, and Hannah handled her needs patiently. We will definitely have Hannah come back!”
“Heath was incredibly responsive, thoughtful and a pleasure to work with in our last-minute holiday dog and house-sitting needs. She sent us lots of pictures, gave our Pepper a great time and left the house immaculate. We will use her for the next time we need a dog sitter, we hope she'll be available!”
About: I’ve had many dogs all different kind of breeds. Very good at training and giving them attention. Takes them for walks 1 to 3 times a day I’m free Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Some weekends if 2 week notice. Mornings afternoons and evenings work durning the week. Weekends when I’m available mainly evenings and nights I don’t have a fenced yard but I will keep them on leash at all times and be very close so they don’t take off
About: I’ve never lived without a dog and have taken care of family and friends’ pets of all shapes and sizes. As the former guardian of a wonderful dog with stranger danger and issues with other dogs, I am fully capable of learning and respecting your pups boundaries. It would be my pleasure to care for them and meet them where they’re at. Right now I work with rescue dogs weekly and love them all. I work from home and am happy to come during any part of the day depending on my schedule. I’m flexible and willing to meet your needs. I love to walk pups, provide enrichment, supervise yard time or whatever else they need to get the exercise and care that your pup requires.

“Francis was great! Our 2 cats were happy and healthy when we got home after being gone for over a week. She was also great at responding to texts, and left our home pretty much exactly as we had left it. She is super sweet and will definitely recommend her to take care of your critters.”
“5/5 Stars! Highly Recommend! Xinwei is hands down one of the best pet sitters we have ever used! While we have worked with pet walkers in the past, Xinwei was our very first time trusting someone to stay overnight with our pups, and he completely blew us away. From start to finish, his attention to detail and thoughtful care exceeded all of our expectations. He took the time to truly understand our pups' routines, personalities, and specific needs, making sure every detail, from feeding and exercise to late night comfort, was followed to a T. Knowing our dogs were in such attentive, loving hands for their first overnight stay gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Beyond being wonderful with our pups, Xinwei was exceptionally respectful of our home. We returned to find everything immaculate, honestly, even better than we left it! Xinwei is genuinely kind, reliable, and deeply professional. We look forward to using him again and definitely will, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional, trustworthy sitter!”
About: Hi! My name is Natasha and I am a lover of all pups big and small. I have a pup of my own who loves new mates, play dates , and time spent hiking. I have a “small dog” kennel, a “big dog” kennel, toys, doggie pillows, and dog treats/food. I am looking forward to working with you and your four-legged friends!! I have a pup of my own names Huckleberry and our typical daily routine is waking up early so he can get his exercise in, then we feed, and then we either get a few hours to hangout before work at noon or it’s an early shift at 9. He has the ability to come inside and outside with leisure and every day I come home mid shift to check in. My yard is fenced and my Mr. Huckleberry is a very dog oriented canine who absolutely loves new pup friends which makes our home a good place for all dogs. In the case of clients homes it definitely suits the comfortability for the pup to be in their own environment, but I don’t have a preference!
“Heidi was such a great dog sitter! She was wonderful to work with, very helpful, reliable, and followed all of our instructions carefully. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs and home were in good hands. We’re truly grateful for her and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Madonna was amazing! She communicated well, she was flexible as we had some work going on in the yard, and she was great with the dogs. The dogs love her! I will hope I’m lucky enough to ba e Madonna house sit again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many different shapes and sizes since I was 9. I grew up with a white Maltese named Jolina whom I absolutely adored. My friends and family have always felt comfortable leaving me to care for their pets while away on trips. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them all the attention they need! I will follow all instructions and make use of all toys or treats given to ensure your pup has the best time while you’re away.
“Emily did a wonderful job with my dogs and keeping me updated and sending photos of them! Our one dog is recovering from surgery and needed some special care and Emily managed fine! We will definitely contact her again for future needs.”
“Dina was absolutely amazing with our pretty nervous, anxious pup!! I was nervous myself and not sure what to expect as Dina is new to Junie. It appeared Junie warmed up to Dina pretty quickly which made me feel so much more relaxed while we were away. She sent pictures and updates which were a bonus. She treated Junie like her own. I highly recommend Dina and will definitely use her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,655 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clayville. 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 Clayville 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 Clayville 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 Clayville 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
