“Clowee did a wonderful job watching our two Great Danes. They are high maintenance—but she was able to work their schedule and took amazing care of them. She kept us updated on how they were doing — sent pictures and even left us a little care package from her stay. I would absolutely recommend her.”
“Erin did a wonderful job and our Mozzie LOVES her. At first I was skeptical to use Rover, but after seeing Erin’s recurring clients and her willingness to spend a little time with Mozzie before our week-long trip, it brought relief. Throughout our trip, Erin regularly sent picture updates with our pup being spoiled with pup cups, walks, car rides, and snuggles. SO very thankful.”
“Sarah did an incredible job sitting Nooka. She took excellent care of her and sent many photos showing the times they spent together. Sarah is extremely reliable and we will use her services again in the future.”
“Brittany was awesome!! Couldn't be happier with the care she gave my fur babies. She kept me updated with pictures and videos. My very senior babies (one which is diabetic and needs shots) were very well taken care of!! A++”
“This was the second time I had Parker stay with my senior dog, and she did a great job! She’s very personable and communicative, and I can go out of town with no worries when I know she’s there to watch over my fur baby and my home.”
“Our dogs had a great time with Meghan! She took great care of all three of them and kept us updated throughout their stay with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear they were well cared for and happy. We would absolutely book with Meghan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter”
About: I used to work in a grooming salon for a few years where I bathed, groomed, and looked after all kinds of dogs and cats so I have experience with almost every breed out there. Part of my training included learning anatomy of dogs and cats along with how to read their body language and how to break up dog fights. I also was given light training in how to handle medical emergency situations and when to know a situation requires that kind of action. I've had all kinds of pets throughout my life from dogs and cats to snakes and birds. No kind of pet is too much for me 🥰 I currently have two dogs of my own. I have a pitbull and an American bulldog who are both older and special needs. I also take care of my neighbors two dogs every other week. I will stay on top of any and all wellness routines the pets may have such as meal times, bathroom breaks, medications, or otherwise. I offer lots of enrichment and play time. Weather permitting I also will take them on walks and out to play fetch. I have lots of experience with special needs cases such as rescues who have been abused, feral cats, medical disabilities etc. and am happy to cater to anything your pet may need!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Dunlap is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunlap
Morgan is the absolute best! She stepped up for us and housesat our dog when we had some last minute boarding complications due to our pup’s health, and we may now only exclusively hire her because she is so wonderful. We got daily reports and pics, and our dog was so spoiled by her. She also cared for our guinea pigs and fish and did a great job… would have her back in a heartbeat!

FAQs for House Sitting - Dunlap
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 130 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dunlap. 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 Dunlap 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 Dunlap 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 Dunlap 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.
