About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since early childhood. Between walking, feeding, and playing, I’ve cared for pups since I can remember. I have two mix breed babies at home. I am a writer with an 11 year old child. So taking your pets for a walk would be a nice break in my day! I have a large yard, and two medium sized fur dogs that love to play. I can also keep them separate if need be or even crate.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and have five dogs of my own, so caring for dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’ve also cared for dogs for private families and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I love giving dogs plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m in college from 8:00 AM to about 12:30 PM, so I’m available before and after classes for pet care. I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and attention. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat every pet with patience, care, and attention. I want both you and your pet to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was young. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with animals of all sizes, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time, and only work maybe three days out of the week for as most as 6 hours. With that being said I am pretty available all throughout the week for any pet sitting needs! I care for pets with gentleness and I try to follow how the owner would typically care for their pet. Making sure all of the pets and owners needs are both met.
“Sydney was a great sitter. She was informative about Bailey while we were away. She was prompt and as well as she was able to take us last minute especially with how hectic Masters had the local area. Thank you so much and I look forward to booking her again!”
“A top-notch caregiver for my two kitties and I have worked with many sitters in the past 10 years. I chose Asha because she has experience with special needs pets. She was willing to house sit with my babies so that she could express the bladder of my special needs girl. She fed, watered, brushed, loved and expressed the bladder of my little one every 6 hours to keep her on schedule day and night. If you are hesitant about traveling because of your fur babies, call Asha. She is delightful, willing, clean, communicative and observant. She will care for your home and your pets as her own. There are not enough stars for me to recommend Asha highly enough! She is a personable, professional, and experienced lover of animals… I have already talked with her about future sits. She is the answer to my prayers and my babies love her!”
“Baylee was the perfect sitter for my pup while I had to run out of town. She sent cute pictures and videos and communicated really well! I definitely plan to use Baylee the next time I need a sitter.”

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 Dearing 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 Dearing 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 Dearing 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
