“Jordan was kind, communicative, and attentive throughout the entire stay. He interacted wonderfully with our dog and took the time to ask thoughtful questions to ensure he could provide the best possible care. It was clear he genuinely cared about our pup’s well-being. We would absolutely ask Jordan to dog sit again. Thanks, Jordan!”
“Emily was great to work with and communicated really well through the whole process. We’d never used Rover before and she made the process a breeze and made our pup (and us!) comfortable as we were out of town😊 definitely will use her services again!! Thank you Emily!”
“Michelle did pet sitting in my home for 7 days, caring for my two older cats and one rambunctious younger dog. She was professional and a good commuicator from the start (my booking on Rover, setting up an appointment to meet me and the pets, setting up an appointment to get the key). She was clear about her own schedule, when she was available to be in my home and when she was working or caring for her own pets (cats). She communicated with me daily (my dog was sick at one point) and sent photos of my pets while I was away. When I returned home, my home was pristine and my sheets had been washed and changed!!! I would highly recommend Michelle and did just pass on her name to a friend.”
“You can tell Elizabeth really loves animals & we felt our doggies (an epileptic senior lab and the other a chihuahua puppy) were in trusted hands. She’s a great communicator & stayed in touch with photos & updates. We came back to a clean home & happy puppies! We will definitely be reaching out to Elizabeth again in the future!”
“Maddelynn did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away! She was great to work with and very responsive. We appreciated the pictures she sent assuring us everything was going well. We would work with her again.”
“Michela was outstanding. Our two dogs were happy and well cared for. She sent pictures with updates while we were away. It was comforting to know the dogs were in such good hands.”
“Lila did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies! She is very professional and took pride in caring for our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She stayed at our house and it was immaculate when we returned. I will definitely contact Lila for future house sitting. Thank you again Lila!!”
About: I’ve had pets and taken care of them since I was a kid. I have also taken care of the pets of friends and neighbors. Everyone I has been very happy with the care their fur babies received! I currently work from home and am flexible with my availability. I am available for drop in visits and walks throughout the day as well as more continuous care, depending on the situation. I can care for your pets in your home following your instructions to accomodate how you and your pets are most comfortable and the schedule they are used to while you’re away
“Bailey is a true professional. She gave us regular updates while we were away, complete with photos of our happy dog. She handled Bear during a thunderstorm, which can be a challenge. She also took care of our home, and surprised us with a portrait of Bear when we arrived back. We will definitely be seeking to use her services as needed in the future!”
About: I have had or have been taking care of dogs for the last 15 years. I have experience walking, playing with, feeding, limited training, and giving medication to a wide variety of dogs of all sizes I am a recent college graduate and starting graduate school in the fall. I have a pretty open and flexible schedule to take care of your pet needs. While it is nice outside I live to take pets outside and lay them get their energy out with a good okay whether that be on a walk or in a backyard
About: I have been watching pets since I was 10 and and I am very responsible. Plus I have my own pets I take care of. I’m free whenever to watch your pet just please give me a few days in advance. I will make time for you and your pets. I will feed them make sure they have water and take them outside play with them and we can go on walks. If your pet has a schedule I will follow it.
“Heather was very professional and the pups took to her right away. We received pictures and a video that put our minds at ease. She updated us on anything pertinent. A very likable pup sitter. I would hire again.”
About: I've lived with cats and worked with dogs my whole life. From bathing my grandma's dog to walking pit bulls at the shelter, animals have always been a part of my life. Over the summer I'm looking for work wherever I can take it but mostly open. In the school year I am usually never gone more than 3 hours. I live in a pet friendly basement apartment with air conditioning. There is space for a kennel and other supplies if needed. It's not gigantic is very clean and the complex has a bark park.
About: Our fur babies deserve the utmost attention and care when we’re gone. With my care, I can provide that for you and your pet. Accidents happen and can be fixed, as long as our babies are safe and healthy, that’s all that matters. I believe in being patient and understanding with every living being. My schedule is very flexible and I have my own transportation. Pet care is part of my daily life, so it comes easily to me. Mistakes happen and our pets deserve the same grace we give to ourselves. I’ve cleaned many accidents myself, and I never find it to be something daunting or difficult. Every animal has their own personality, so I always make sure to adapt to their needs and respect their boundaries.
“I ended up canceling the booking right before the sitting but the experience I had with Ashley was wonderful! She was willing to come over and meet my pup beforehand and Rue took to her immediately. I felt very comfortable having Ashley stay over for the week at my house. I hated that I had to cancel at the last minute because I know Rue would have LOVED Ashley. Highly recommend her!!”
“Crystal was so fabulous with our pets! We were gone for all day, she sent me photos of our pets! I am so happy with the care she gave our fur babies!! I would highly recommend Crystal for any fur baby care! I am happy I have Crystal booked for 2 more times. Thanks bunches Crystal.”
“Canzadie was wonderful- she was on time and took wonderful care of Bella. When I got home Bella was sleeping and not anxious at all - this is the first time I had left her all day and so happy with the care and love she had while I was out. Will definitely contact Canzadie again and would recommend her.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Dewar
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 81 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dewar. 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 Dewar 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 Dewar 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 Dewar 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 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.
