Sarah was a great sitter! The dogs were happy and she kept everything neat around the house. She understood when our flight was delayed due to storms. Will definitely recommend.

Jack was great with our pit bull, Frank, and cat, Furgie. Our house was in the exact same condition we left it and we would 100% use him again.

We always feel like our babies are in good hands when we leave them with Rhonda! And Rhonda is so good to work with. We always come back to a clean house and happy dogs. It's no wonder that she's booked up months in advance!

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and grew up caring for four dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in daily care, responsibility, and understanding different personalities. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends and family, caring for a wide range of animals—from bottle-feeding a rescued kitten to looking after large breeds like Great Pyrenees and Great Danes. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also volunteer with animal shelters when I can and enjoy helping care for stray animals in need. I’m currently beginning my education in the animal field and working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I’m gaining even more hands-on experience with group play, supervision, and daily care routines. I truly love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My availability as of now will change weekly/daily but I will do my best to update it needed and because it does fluctuate please feel free to ask. I will do the best I can do make time for your fur babies! (I also am flexible with pricing, please message me!) When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is safety, routine, and comfort. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and behavior preferences to keep pets on their normal schedule. I take time to build trust with each pet and allow them to warm up at their own pace. I’m mindful of home safety, always double-check doors, leashes, and routines to prevent any issues. I also respect clients’ homes and keep everything clean and cared for while I’m there. I provide updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of friends’ pets for years, including cats and dogs of all sizes. I have a cat named Cleo and she gets the best single-cat treatment! I have stayed at friends’ homes to dog sit for days at a time. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate most feeding/walking schedules. I am a business owner with a flexible schedule so I have time to check on your fur babies first thing in the morning and later in the afternoon! I can also stay overnight with pets if needed. I prefer to pet sit in client’s homes. I can stay overnight if needed. I can take dogs on walks in the neighborhood or I can take them to a park.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for about 10 years. My house was always a zoo growing up and we’ve never not had several cats and dogs! I am very responsible and have many years of experience of feeding, walking, and taking care in general of animals. Along with caring for my own pets, I have pet sat for weekends at a time for several local families for the past couple of years. My dog has also had two litters of puppies (10 puppies both times!) within the past 3 years and I have helped raised the puppies both times. My dog was unable to produce milk both pregnancies so I had to bottlefeed all pups everyday until they were able to eat soft food around 5 weeks. So, I have lots of experience dealing with puppies if anybody has a full time job and just needs some extra help with their pups! I am currently home from college for the summer and have full availability! I do not have another job so I am free any day of the week or weekend to care for your sweet pets!! I have three dogs and four cats at my home that I play with all day and night! I frequently take my dogs on walks and to the dog park every day. I also have strollers I put my cats in because they love to be outside as well! I currently have a 5 month old puppy and have completely potty trained her already. While dog sitting, I will take my clients pets out regularly and give them plenty of playing and loving time! If they needed to be crated at night, I will ensure that they are crates but if they don’t need to be then they can sleep with me!:)

About: I've owned and cared for small to large cats/dogs for 8+ years, doing the necessary research to provide them with the best care I can offer to maximize their environment! If things turn out well, I dream of opening a doggy daycare one day! I also service Scottsville, KY!!! I currently work part-time, so I have time to care for your babies! I'm mostly available after 4 pm on weekdays, but can provide 30-minute drop-in visits before 9 AM and during lunch hours. Weekends are open unless I have plans, which I will keep updated as best as I can! Wednesdays and Sundays are my most limited days. I live in an apartment with an open yard for my dog to use while leashed. I feed her 2-3 times a day, depending on her mood - she's not an overcomsumer, so some days she just isn't hungry until evening! It's her preferences unless I notice a concern :) Caring for other animals in my home won't be a service I offer, because my pup has attachment/anxiety issues and I wouldn't want to create an unhealthy environment for her or yours!

Kaitlyn has been absolutely phenomenal. My pets warmed up to her immediately and absolutely adore her. She is extremely attentive and I feel very confident leaving my senior dog with her. She keeps me updated throughout her stay and sends pictures of my pets while I’m away. She will definitely be my first choice of pet sitter from now on!

I would give Kennedy 100 stars if I could! She was an absolute team player and stepped in immediately when we had another bad sitter experience. Kennedy took on the job with little to no insight and not getting to meet us or our pets ahead of time. She took over in the most effortless way and let us enjoy the remainder of our vacation knowing our pets were in such excellent hands! She communicated very well and even communicated more to ease our anxiety. Kennedy is a rockstar and took initiative on asking if I needed any care of stuff I didn’t mention in my notes or a drop in before we made it home! Words will never be enough to praise her great work ethic. She truly cares about your pets like her own. Thank you for absolutely everything you did to help us Kennedy!

About: I have about 2 years of consistent hands-on experience caring for dogs as an adult, in addition to growing up around pets my whole life. I currently take care of my own two dogs, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and overall care. Through my experience, I’ve learned how to understand different dog personalities and adjust to their needs — whether they’re energetic, shy, or need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with maintaining routines and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Caring for animals has always been natural to me, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I usually work mornings and get off around 12pm on weekdays and weekends, which leaves me flexible in the afternoons and evenings for pet care. I’m able to adjust my schedule to fit bookings and make sure pets get consistent care and attention. I care for pets by keeping them on their normal routine with feeding, walks, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, and I also take them on regular walks for exercise. I focus on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and I always follow any instructions provided. I also send updates so owners feel at ease while their pet is with me.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I started caring for dogs when I was 10, helping out neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, and bathing their pets. Over the years, that love has only grown. I’ve worked as a dog daycare attendant for the past 2 years and currently work as a veterinary assistant, which has given me hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs and their unique needs. I’m enrolled in vet nursing school because caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. I’m currently working part-time and am an online student so I have flexibility in my schedule to ensure that I can care for your pet! Caring for pets in their homes is a responsibility I take seriously. I ensure they have a safe, comfortable environment, maintain their feeding and exercise routines, and provide companionship. Additionally, I adhere to any specific care instructions provided by pet owners, whether it's administering medications, grooming, or extra playtime. My primary goal is to make pets feel secure and loved in their own space while their owners are away.

Sophie is great! She was extremely responsive and flexible in making the arrangements to dog sit my Shih Tzu, Twyla. She did everything I requested of her to accommodate Twyla’s situation. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone else or to use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Drake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 183 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Drake. 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 Drake 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 Drake 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 Drake 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 Drake. On Rover:

  • 89% 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.
