About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my 20+ years of hands-on pet experience and medical background. I can administer medications, thoroughly clean and sanitize, and provide personalized, attentive care, ensuring your animal feels safe, loved, and completely comfortable. I currently work full-time as a registered nurse. I’ve been a pet lover my entire life. I’ve grown up with multiple cats and dogs. I currently have two dogs and one cat and the pet care would involve either me coming to your house and letting your pet stay in their home environment. Or joining our little zoo. My availability is wide open on weekends and soon to be full-time. But I currently work at 9 to 5 Monday through Friday. I am available to frequently let your pet out every two hours at least if they are in your home. At my house, they are able to have unlimited love and attention.
“Heather was great with our dog, Murphy! She was very communicative with me and sent pictures daily! She took Murphy on daily walks and played with him in our backyard! She provided wound care on his foot and gave daily medications. Heather truly cared for our dog as if he was her own! We will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. At 67 years young, I have the patience, reliability, and genuine love that pets deserve. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, giving belly rubs, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I take that responsibility to heart. I’m home full time, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to stick to your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply lots of love and cuddles I have a fenced in yard with a pool. For pets that do not know how to swim, I prefer to stick to just walks rather than time in the back yard to be sure they are safe.

“Jessica was Amazing! She was very attentive to both my cats & spent time with them. My Cooper wasn't feeling well, so he would hide but she made sure to check on him & see him before she left for the day and let me know how he was feeling & eating. She sent me lots of pictures and updates everyday which made me feel at ease, we were gone a week for a cruise. I would recommend her for any of your fur-babies needs. I will definitely have Jessica & Chevy over again to play with my kitties, they're a blessing.”

“Joelma was fantastic! She took great care of our high energy pup and was very communicative. She took the time to meet with him ahead of time, ensured she was familiar with his needs, and sent us pictures regularly while we were gone. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m your pet’s new favorite human 🐾 I treat every fur baby like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles (if they’re into that!). I’m super patient, reliable, and great at picking up on each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also have a background in childcare, working in multiple child care settings and holding a CDA (Child Development Associate), so I’m naturally nurturing, attentive, and big on routines and safety. Whether it’s a shy cat or an energetic pup, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine! I only work about 3 days a week from 9–5, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give pets the attention they deserve. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean space with a fenced yard for playtime, plus lots of love and attention. I also have a friendly 3-year-old Shih Tzu who loves other animals and makes a great companion. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 664 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dupont. 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 Dupont 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 Dupont 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 Dupont 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.
