“Hope did a great job watching my dog Charlie. She was communicative and gave him a lot of love and special attention. She picked up the booking with only a couple days notice (life saver) and even made time in her day to make sure to give him a walk - even walking him on the day that we got home.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about four years and worked in a veterinary hospital for three years. I have cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and even farm animals. With my veterinary experience, I understand animal behavior and basic medical needs, allowing me to provide loving, reliable, and attentive care while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time as a waitress, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide attentive, consistent care for pets. When I have advance notice, I can adjust my work schedule to accommodate pet sitting needs. For overnight stays, I prioritize spending most of my time in the pet’s home to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for. I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I like to follow routines, maintain a clean and secure environment, and provide plenty of attention and supervision. With my past experience, I’m attentive to behavior changes and health needs to ensure safe, reliable care.
About: Have a family of 3 dogs and 2 cats and my family and I love our messy and hyper fur kids, no matter the situation we do research to avoid getting our fur kids sick and keep them feeling loved and relaxed :) I graduated from college this past summer and am working part time jobs so I have time to take care of friendly pets of any kinds and more than happy to house sit as well for any vacations! We have a fenced yard and we have a crate to put them in when they are doing naughty behaviors like digging through the trash or grabbing things (like food on the table) when they aren’t supposed to. I take them on walks and give them toys to play with as they love tug of war and enrichment toys to keep them busy while we are otherwise we cuddle and watch tv on the couch in my free time.
“Crystal did a great job watching our 2 fur babies for 3 weeks. She sent us updates and pictures on a regular basis. When we walked in the door, they were happy and healthy. Thanks for taking good care of our kitty cats!”
“Brooke was an exceptional dog sitter. We have a giant 2 year old, attention seeking puppy, and Brooke went above and beyond to care for him. She not only took amazing care of our puppy, but she also left our house neat and tidy. She arrived on time and was very thorough with all of the details. We will definitely ask Brooke back to our home to care for our boy.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16. In high school, I worked at a dog daycare for 3 years where I was a manager and handled up to 30 dogs on a daily basis. These dogs varied in breed and behavioral characteristics, and it was my responsibility to ensure they were cared for and safe. I followed strict procedures regarding meals, safety, and potty breaks. I’ve also been a go to dog-sitter for friends and family for the past 3 years, staying in their homes taking care of their pets and following the provided instructions they left for me. My tasks as a dog sitter have included feeding at designated times, playing with them, and letting them out regularly. I’m currently between jobs and have a seasonal coaching job (ends in May) so my schedule is very open except from 3-5:15 M-F due to my coaching responsibilities. My flexible schedule allows me to take care of your pups and give them the time they deserve. When taking care of your pups or kitties (for overnights or drop ins), I love being given specific care instructions to ensure that there isn’t a change in their routine. Furthermore, if house sitting, I want to know and abide by your homes rules to be respectful to your space.
About: I love animals! I have 3 of my own! I work from home and I can stop by play with your animals and let them out to go potty! I love cats, dogs, and lizards. I can house sit for a few hours but I am unable to provide overnight care due to having my own animals. I can however recommend someone else who has overnight care experience who watched my animals just ask! I work from home so I am able to take my computer with me wherever I go as long as there is internet! Only able to stay for a few hours 2-4 hours for a check in During summer months walks will be under 30minutes and rate of $25 due to buyness of season and it being too hot, i will not walk your dog in hot weather for more than 15minutes and if its 90degrees and will be adjusted for times of morning hours to later in evening due to weather- I can take pictures, I let my dogs sleep on my furniture they have beds of their own, I feed my dogs twice a day.
“Cari is great with my boyz - they settled in easily with her and she gave really nice updates while we were away. Very mature, responsive and responsible- the kind of person you want watching your fur- babies🥰”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and I’m a happy owner of three! I’m up for any challenge and happy to help! I’m flexible with any requests for dog or cat care and making sure they stay happy and healthy while your gone ! I’m a at home student and barely have to make drives to my college so I’m very flexible ! I’m available for set or flexible schedules ! Whatever makes your life easier ! I have no problem taking your pet to the dog park if needed or walking them or even waiting outside while they explore ! My puppy loves to interact with other dogs while we are on our walk
“Autumn was incredible! She had 5 star communication and provided an incredible experience for our dog while we were out of town! Highly recommend and hope to book with her again!”
About: I am coparenting a 90 lb golden retriever and miss him so much when he’s away! He is not fond of new places, so I understand the importance of keeping your pets safe in your home while you are away. I have experience house and dog sitting for my sister and friends and I love walking and snuggling. I would be honored to take care of your little furry children! I work full time in a corporate setting in downtown Minneapolis, but I only go to the office twice a week. I have a fairly flexible schedule and would be available to work partial days from home as well. My typical work hours are 8:30am-5pm. I raised my now 6 year old golden retriever and cat, and am comfortable with all things puppy, kitten, teen, and adult related. I love going for walks and taking dogs to the park if they like to be social. I treat my own pets as my children and would love to dote on your babies in the same way!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 379 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dalbo. 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 Dalbo 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 Dalbo 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 Dalbo 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dalbo. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
