“This was the first time I had used Rover. I had selected Erin due to her stellar reviews. I was pleased to see that it was all true. Erin was amazing with Louie she did a great job at easing my mind by keeping me abreast of their activities throughout the day and flooded me with pictures. I really appreciated her.”
“I felt at ease leaving my pets at home with Lucca even though it was my first time using her services. She is so sweet and bubbly and very kind. She sends lots of photos, updates, and doesn’t hesitate to bring up any concerns. My pets love her. I would pick her again in a heartbeat.”
“Our 2 dogs had such a great time with Elizabeth and Mazi! She sent pictures every day and we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about anything with the house or the dogs!”
“Emma was fantastic with our dogs, our cats and our home. She is very sweet and great with the animals. We will definitely request her services again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“We had Mackenzie watch Jasmine and Rudy for a day, as a trial for a longer stay later on. We are super happy with both Mackenzie's care for the doggos and also her responsiveness and communication with us. She followed our instructions thoroughly, kept us updated, and responded promptly when we reached out. Thank Mackenzie!”
“Beyond amazing!! Second time having Taylor watch our baby. Great updates with pictures and very communicative. Always leaves our home clean and our pup set up until we arrive back. Would highly recommend!!”
“Jenna is nothing short of fabulous! She is wonderful with our fur babies, flexible and amenable to unexpected changes at the house while you’re gone. She’s a gem of a pet and house sitter and we fully recommend her services.”
“Cannot say enough good things about Erica! We were gone for a week and she stayed at our house with our 3 dogs. She sent multiple daily picture updates (as requested) and seemed to love our dogs as much as we do! She left our house cleaner than we left it, and when we got home our dogs were excited to see us BUT searched the house looking for Erica. Can wait for her to come stay with them again!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! I walk my sweet golden every day and have a history of professional dog care/walking. I give especially good hose baths and I’m great with my furminator vacuum :) I work from home with flexible hours. I am available all days of the week! Early in the morning or late into the evening, your pet has a friend in me. I have a fenced yard and a sweet golden of my own to keep your pet company! There’s a wonderful protected ~3 mile loop around my neighborhood for walks and I have a nice big open back car for easy and safe transportation.
“Shirley did a great job with our zoo (2dogs and 4cats). They were comfortable with her. She also took care of our house while we were away. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies and your house. Thank you Shirley!”
“Lily was fantastic and we would absolutely book her again in the future. She was a superb communicator, kept us updated throughout the day, and sent lots of pictures. She ensured that our pups stayed on their normal schedules and provided lots of love to each of them. Lily even provided attentive care to our senior pup who was on the mend with a paw infection while we were away. Our younger pup thoroughly enjoyed his multiple walks a day as well. She also left our home spotless upon our return as well. My husband and I highly recommend Lily for your booking!”
“McKinnon does a wonderful job dog sitting for our dogs and our home. She spends quality time with them and excellent care. I would highly recommend her to take care of your family pets.”
“We have had Mark sit at our house twice now and couldn’t be more happy. We have a high energy, large, 1 year old golden retriever and Mark is excellent with him! He leaves our house as clean as we left it and it’s like he wasn’t even here when we get home (the only clue is our dog is more well behaved once we get home). He sends us pictures of our pup and is a trustworthy person to have at our home.”
“Cathy is amazing! Highly recommend. We have two spoiled yorkies. Cathy gave them excellent attention and care while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands.”
“Our doggies love Abrianna! She is wonderful with communication and provided lots of photo updates of what our pups were up to while we were out of town. Our dogs also were on specific medicine and Abrianna provided great care.”
“Jamie was awesome and Tucker had a great weekend without us. She took care of my very spoiled baby and kept me updated with pics and videos the whole time. I highly recommend and definitely will use her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crabapple
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Lucy during our 13-day trip. Lucy is extremely anxious and skittish, but she earned Lucy’s trust early on, and by the end they were friends. That meant so much to us. She sent photos and videos every day, along with little stories about how Lucy was doing. She also took wonderful care of our house: bringing in the mail, taking out the trash, cleaning up, and even stripping the bed and gathering the towels for laundry. She left us a sweet, detailed note and thoughtfully made sure the key was safely inside when she left. We came home to a happy Lucy and a spotless house. We’re so grateful for the care she gave both, and we would happily book her again.
Dylan did a great job arrived early so we could go over some items for caring for our older dog. He let us know that he was on his way to our house in the am which was great. He took pictures and videos which were great to see. If you need a pet sitter. Dylan is great he won’t let you down and I’m sure your pets will love him he truly ares about your pets and animals. Will definitely be using Dylan again.
Ciara took great care of our three dogs when we went out of town for 5 days. We have two 2 year old high energy corgis and a 6 month old Great Pyrenees puppy who looks like a full grown dog, but acts like a spoiled toddler! Collectively they are a challenge. She did a great job managing the herd, keeping order in the house and communicating with us. We would definitely ask Ciara to stay with our pups again.

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 Crabapple 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 Crabapple 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 Crabapple 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.
