“Kayli was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Violet and Orion, during her 5-day stay. Since this was our first time using Rover and having an in-home pet sitter, we were naturally a little nervous — especially because both dogs can be shy at first. Violet is a Great Dane/pitbull mix with a big personality once she’s comfortable, and Orion is an elderly Black Lab/pitbull mix who is calm and quiet. Kayli was incredibly patient with them, and once they warmed up to her, they clearly adored her. She sent thoughtful updates and photos 3 times a day, which gave us so much peace of mind and truly allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pets. Kayli did an amazing job caring for both of their very different personalities and needs. We also came home to a perfectly tidy house, exactly as we left it. We would absolutely book with Kayli again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter.”
“It was my first time using Rover and Rachel made sure it was a good experience. She clarified any needs for the dogs, asked what was acceptable to not cross any boundaries already set, and made sure they had an enjoyable day. Couldn’t be happier to have them watched by her. Would recommend her if you need a sitter.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and genuinely love caring for them. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident about who you’re leaving your pet with. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for pet care after work and on most weekends. I’m typically available three weekends each month, with one weekend reserved for my Army obligations. I’ll always keep my availability updated so you’ll know exactly when I’m available to care for your pet. I have a spacious yard with plenty of room for outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. I’m very attentive to each pet’s routine and will follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, crate time, or other needs. Safety is extremely important to me, so pets will always be supervised and cared for according to their owner’s preferences.
About: Ive had pets my entire life, and my own dogs my entire adult life. I was a pet sitter in collage and have watched friends and families dogs for years! I currently work 5 days a week in Seagoville, but am avaliable after in the evenings and weekends! Particularly for nightly walks or evening nights out! I am experienced with walking dogs of all sized and leash skills. My own two dogs are pullers and high energy on a leash! I am more than comfortable feeding and administering oral medications!
“Regina was on time, did everything we asked and kept us informed about her leaving Jet alone when she was going to be gone for a couple of hours. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Will hire her again.”
“Eboni handled my pets very well! I have a mini pig who is constantly testing and needs lots of attention and firm instruction and Eboni handled it very well and I came home to a very happy pig. She also cared for my chickens well. Eboni is a quick learner and respects the rules you have for your pets and your home and gives them lots of love and attention. She is also someone I was very comfortable leaving alone in my home and left things neat and clean after a few days pet sitting. I highly recommend her.”
“Omg… KELILA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. So kind, so helpful and most importantly my baby loved her so mix. She was the best sitter I have ever had, and I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Kelila.”
“Alice was amazing! Her communication throughout the day was stellar, she was always swift to respond my texts and sent photos and videos at consistent morning, afternoon evening milestones. All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.”
About: I've had animals in my life since birth, literally. My mom is a veterinarian and raised me to be just like her. It worked 😅 I am an aspiring veterinarian with a lifetime of experience when it comes to caring for the furry, scaly, aquatic, or just different members of the family! I have worked as a vet tech, so if your pet needs any sort of medication, I am highly qualified for medical administration as well. I am a full-time master's student at OSU. Most of my "free time" centers around the weekends but I do have more limited availability during the week as well. No matter where I am, I vow to provide any pet with the utmost amount of care. I specialize in belly rubs, butt scratches, and laser pointers. Also, if you want your pet's nails trimmed or anal glands expressed, I can do that too 😂
“Dakota stayed in our home and took excellent care of our pets. I received updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He worked with our challenging Doberdane to make her comfortable with him. He is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet sitter.”
“Dylan was absolutely phenomenal!!!! He house sat for our pup and couldn’t have been better! I messaged him a few days before that our dog had been having some tummy issues and he was so gracious and diligent about her medicine while we were gone. We also got tons of photo updates and the apartment was spotless when we returned!!! He even had doggy calming music on for our pup when we arrived home🫶. I could not recommend Dylan more and he will always be my first call going forward! 10000/10”
“Taylor was great! She was very communicative and our dogs loved having her! She sent pictures of her visit which gave us huge peace of mind. We will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“Astrid is everything that I would hope for to look after our little ones. She was so informative sending lots of pics and videos. I had never used rover before and am so thankful I tried it as well as finding Astrid. What a blessing. I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of two senior cats for two years now. I have also taken care of my friends and family pets while they were out and about. I can provide the basic needs for your pets and lots of love! I work 4 days out of the week, so I will have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs and wants in any situation. When I did care for my two senior cats I would make sure their basic needs are met of course, but because they were so much older I was more attentive to them since they were more fragile and would immediately handle any limp I saw or cough or sneeze. I will treat your pets as if they are my own.
About: I will always love your fur baby like my own and I can assure you I will make sure they get the care they need while in my care. I’m currently a stay at home mom to two teenage girls who are home schooled. It is always someone at home to supervise your fur baby. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, with secure doors and windows, safe storage for cleaning products and medications, and constant supervision whenever pets are in my care. I also follow each pet’s routine, monitor their behavior closely, and provide a calm, stress-free environment so they can feel safe and at 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 Combine 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 Combine 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 Combine 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!

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 .

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.
