“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs through dog sitting and training. I provide a safe, caring, and comfortable environment while making sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and positive interaction. I’m also experienced with basic training, including commands, leash manners, routines, and positive reinforcement. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have flexible availability for dog sitting throughout my daily schedule. I can work around your needs and provide care, walks, playtime, and attention while you’re at work, running errands, or away for the day. I can provide reliable and loving care for your dogs while you’re away or at work. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, food, fresh water, and bathroom breaks while keeping them safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.

“Shakarra watched our 2 dogs and 2 cats for 2 weeks. I’ve never been away from them for that long. She kept me up to date and was very responsive. I appreciated having someone in our home who everyone was comfortable with. She came over 2 times before actually staying to make sure things were going to work. My dogs took to her immediately. I ran into some travel delays but Shakarra was flexible and kind enough to do an additional stop by to make sure everyone was good. She tidied up the house before she left which was icing on the cake for our arrival home. I feel so grateful to have found a great pet sitter on the first go around.”

She was very attentive to Lola and Callie and made sure to let us know right away when Lola had a little upset stomach. We felt very comfortable knowing they were in her care and came home to happy pets. We’d definitely be happy to have her care for them again!”

“Josh was fabulous! Our dog really needed extra care emotionally since we had to have our other dog put down a month ago. Josh was here with him most of the time! During the meet and greet he took meticulous notes! He even brought him a treat (after checking with me.) Josh was able to administer several different meds too with confidence. His communication and pictures throughout his stay was a wonderful way to keep up with his care. He's very responsive, responsible, respectful, and kind. I will use him in the future and look forward to keeping in touch with him!”

About: I am currently a proud parent to two cat, so I’m very well versed in their play styles and respecting their boundaries. However I spent my childhood with a loving dog who recently passed away. Navigating his senior years taught me that care isn’t just about walks or treats but about patience, sometimes administering medication, and recognizing subtle cues of a senior pet that may need a little extra comfort. Whether your pet is a high energy pet or senior pet who needs a gentle hand, I provide intuitive, dedicated, and delicate care that I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student, but have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM-4:00 PM or 5:30 PM-10:00 PM. Thursday- Sunday I’m available anytime after 7:00 PM. Whatever your pets need, I have it covered and their safety is always my number one priority. From double checking that every gate is latched and every lease is secured/correctly on to closely monitoring your pets for any sign of discomfort, ill treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or navigating a high energy walk, I’m prepared for any situation!

About: Hello! My name is Daisy and I have been taking care of others' fur babies for years! I've watched animals from cats and dogs to chickens, bunnies, and mice. I grew up next door to an animal rescue in Central Indiana, and have loved animals ever since. I have experience with medically complex animals as well as seniors, so trust me when I say, I've seen it all :) I work a regular 9-5 during the week, and can come take care of pets any time after hours. If local, I am able to come during lunch to check in as well. I am also available on the weekends. I do not currently board animals at this time, but am able to house/pet sit. Loved ones are always played with, walked, and enriched with each visit, and litter boxes/ enclosures are checked every time. Food and water is always monitored closely and they are always ensured to be happy and enriched after every visit!

“Where do i begin?? Tolu was just awesome. We were very nervous leaving our dog Zoey with anyone -especially because we were traveling internationally. He put our fears to rest immediately. Tolu was so welcoming to Zoey and she loved him right away. He sent texts, updates and pictures. I would book him again hands down. I highly recommend Tolu?❤️”

About: I’ve cared for my own dog for 10 years, which taught me a lot about daily pet responsibilities and the bond animals form with us. For the past two years, I’ve also volunteered at the Humane Society, where I walk dogs, clean kennels, and help care for cats. This hands-on experience has helped me become confident handling a variety of animal temperaments and needs. I bring patience, attentiveness, and a real love for animals to every interaction. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection. I start my mornings with feeding and walking, followed by playtime or any special care needed throughout the day. Evenings are dedicated to another walk, meals, and winding down with cuddles or calm time. I maintain a flexible schedule to meet each pet’s unique needs. I prioritize safety by pet-proofing my environment, removing any harmful items, and creating a calm and clean space. I follow the pet parent’s instructions carefully and ensure routines are maintained. Whether in my home or theirs, I monitor pets closely, provide positive reinforcement, and keep them comfortable with familiar items like their toys or bedding. I also keep emergency contacts and a vet plan ready at all times.

STACEY T is awesome! I was so hesitant to have someone have never met before stay at my house with my spoiled dogs. The meet and greet went so smooth. Great communication through out her stay. Everything was perfect when we got home. We came home to happy dogs and a spotless house. 10/10 will use again!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Cope

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,105 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cope. 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 Cope 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 Cope 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 Cope 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cope. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.
