Katelin was very attentive to my girl. She gave me updates on how she was doing and sent pics daily as per my request. She left my home very tidy and clean as well. I would definitely recommend Katelin for your peace of mind with your fur baby.

Taylor was fantastic to work with. She communicated with us daily, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the photos and updates she sent, as well as the detailed message on the last day before she left explaining what had been done and anything we should be aware of when we returned home. Throughout our trip, we felt confident that our animals were well cared for and that their needs were being met. Thanks to Taylor's thoughtful communication and attentive care, we came home knowing exactly what our pets might need and found them happy and well looked after. We would gladly book with her again.

Kadee did a great job with our pets. Excellent communication including pictures and videos while we were gone. Our pets were happy and well taken care of. Our home was left clean and she even laundered the bedding she used. We will definitely be using her again if possible next time we go out of town!!

Kristine helps me watch my cat Rugar. I was gone for five days and she came over every day to watch him at least hours or spend a night at my home. I will book her again.

About: I do charge a little more as I teach the dog to walk on a leash. Teaching the dog to heel correct is very important. It changes the dogs mind from hunting to following. I have 3 dogs and work at a Pet store that I help train dogs. I can come to your house or mine. I can work on leash pulling kennel training or something fun like Fetch. I do agility on walks and stop at all corners. dogs learn to sit and down also no jumping upon people is learned. I have references available upon request. I look forward to working with you and your pet.

Kirk is amazing with Duffy! He doesn’t just sit and watch him.He truly treats my dog like family. This is our second time booking with Kirk, and everything has been smooth both times. He always sends us pictures and updates, which gives us so much peace of mind. We’re so glad to know Duffy is in such good hands whenever we’re away. Highly recommend!

Jamie did a great job managing my pup all throughout my move in day. She was flexible, prompt, attentive, and communicated well. Plus, Sam loved her! She also came to do a midday walk the next day, and Sam knew her right away and did great with her.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets But they all know that I won’t have another animal come to my house I’m currently working from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm and I get an hour lunch around 12 but I can always do anything after or before work to help you out!🩷 How I care for a pet when there parents are gone is to make sure they get lots of love and making sure they don’t look so sad and make them run

About: I work as a veterinary assistant at an urgent care facility in town. I’ve worked in urgent care going on 4 years and general practice for 2 years. I occasionally cat sit and dog sit. I have a lot of knowledge in my career but I also love spending time with animals and making sure they’re happy, the clients and I just overall enjoy the joy they bring to me! I work 3 12s but I am able to stop in the check on the fur babies on my lunches. I also am very flexible with times I need to go take care of them on my days off as well. I have two kitties of my own. I don’t plan on being able to board pets at my own home due to me renting a house without a fenced backyard.

FAQs for House Sitting - Echo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 184 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Echo. 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 Echo 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 Echo 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 Echo 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 Echo. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
