About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, both professionally and personally. I worked at Shelley Drive Animal Clinic for four years, where I cared for dogs and cats by administering medications, feeding, cleaning kennels and litter boxes, monitoring their health, and ensuring they were comfortable and well cared for. Outside of work, I have a farm where I care for my horse and two dogs, giving me hands-on experience with animals of different sizes and personalities. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and am currently pursuing my master’s degree in Animal Science. Whether your pet needs playtime, medication, or extra patience and attention, you can trust that they will receive compassionate, reliable, and knowledgeable care with me. Pet care is woven into my life through work, farm responsibilities, and animal science studies, giving me hands-on experience and compassion for animals each day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I will provide a loving, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels secure while you’re away. Every pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care based on their individual needs and routine. Whether it’s feeding, administering medication, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in compassionate, trustworthy, and capable hands.
About: I have taken care of many people’s animals as well as my own for years! I grew up on a farm and had several dogs and cats. I would love to get to know your animals too! I am currently working full-time, but would love to do overnight stays with your pet, drop in visits after 5:00 pm or before 7:00 am. I am available Saturdays and Sundays all day. I would love to take your pet on walks in the evenings as well! I have two very friendly and playful dogs of my own that would love to meet your fur baby! We could go on walks and I can even bathe your pet for you.
“Rachel was wonderful with our cats and took care of our home while we were away for a week. The cats warmed up to her quickly and remained calm with her. Rachel left our home clean and followed instructions. A situation arose at the house while she was at work. She acted quickly and went above and beyond to take care of our babies. Rachel was very communicative and sent pictures each day. We would highly recommend her!”
“We are so grateful for Andrea pet and house sitting for our dogs Zeke and Hobbs. I feel like they are happy being in their own home and yard. We look forward to having Andrea sit for us again and feel safe with her being in our home.”
“Heather did an excellent job watching my pups! She went above and beyond taking care of them and my house. I just moved into a new home and she even helped clean/unpack some and it was truly appreciated! I would definitely use her again and trust she would do a great job!”
About: I have had dogs in my family all my life. I worked at a pet boarding center called Circle Star Pet Resort and will always take cute pictures of your fur babies! I used to foster dogs, but I get too attached to those babies so I couldn’t do it anymore :( I have helped out with bathing and taking care of some of the top show dogs in our country which has been the best opportunity of my life! Due to that my prices are a bit higher but I have the experience! I have a dog myself who is the sweetest baby ever! He loves it when I bring home a friend so they will have plenty of playtime together!
“I was so happy Mariah could accommodate my last minute request. Mariah arrived on time and re-introduced her to Gabby (they had a meet and greet). Gabby was well taken care of and I would definitely use Mariah again.”
“I was out of town from Sunday through Thursday. I was a little nervous about a stranger watching my pets. But she really came through. She communicates right away and I came home to a clean house and happy pets. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I have owned and cared for many dogs throughout my life, I don’t currently own one but I still love them and would care for yours as if they were my own. I currently work full time but my job is a Monday to Friday 8:30 to 5 so I’d be able to care for your pet in the evenings and on weekends. I don’t have the ability to care for your animal in my home but I will happily watch over them in yours or take them for walks.
About: Hey there! My name is Sarah, & i love all things ANIMALS! I had one amazing service dog for almost 14 years, who i trained myself. I have experience with many different animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, monkeys, birds(including domestic like parakeets, exotics such as parrots and even chickens, geese, etc). lizards , fish, Hermit, crabs, Horses, even hampsters and more . I would love to be given the opportunity to help take care of your furry (or not so furry) friend whenever the need arises. I am a stay at home/work at home Mom, so I have open availability most days/weekends. I will do my best to spend my time getting to know what your animal needs, and making sure to cater to those specific needs. Whether it be in my home, simply walking the animal, or your home....I promise that your fur baby will be safe under my care, i can assure you of that! I do request that your pup is treated for fleas somehow, prior to their arrival if staying in my home. Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you! I work full time from home, so i am here the majority of the time to make sure your babies get plenty of attention. :) I have a fenced yard and i also have a couple little boys who would love to throw the ball for a game a fetch.
“Erica was prompt, reliable and sweet to our two small pups. We received regular communication from her with photos. The moment we met her we felt confident that our puppies (who are like babies to us) would be well cared for and she exceeded our expectations. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Erica!”
“Kimberly was a life saver. Our regular sitter was unavailable which left us scrambling to find another sitter last minute. Kimberly was able to meet with very little notice and the dogs loved her immediately. She took great care of our Great Danes and did everything we asked. I would recommend.”
About: I have several years of experience pet sitting as well as working as a veterinary technician for three years in the Houston area. I have grown up around animals all my life and dogs are absolutely my favorite animals! I have two of my own, one of which I've had since 2010 when he was a little puppy around 10 weeks old. I nursed him back to health when he had parvovirus! My other is a smaller rescue dog I adopted in 2017 who originally tested positive for heartworm disease but now he has been heatworm free for about two years! I am currently working a full time Monday through Friday job, but I do have weekends free and evenings. I also can get Fridays off most of the time if needed. I have been at my current job for almost 7 years so my bosses are very negotiable and I am generally able to adjust my schedule with advance notice. I will play with your pups, cuddle, take them on walks, and even to the dog park with your approval! I have a smaller dog of my own who loves to play with other dogs!
“Genesis took care of my four dogs, in my home, for a week and did a tremendous job! She’s super sweet and very conscientious. I’ll be using her again! Thank you so much, Genesis!! ❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was about 10, I’m 21 now. My major is Pre-Veterinary because I’ve had a love for animals and dream of being a vet since I was 7. I have a cat of my own, Luna, and she’s my world. I treat her like a baby so I would love to share the same love to your fur babies! I work full-time as a manager at Walmart, and I’m a full time college student (online). I’m pretty fair and understanding with scheduling, as long as you reach out in advance. If my schedule doesn’t fit for you, I do not mind adjusting to accommodate you and your fur babies! I also don’t have an issue with last minute planning, just be mindful of scheduling issues or certain questions I asks in regards of the service you’ve requested! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of exercise and attention throughout the day. I also monitor their behavior to make sure they are happy, healthy, and not feeling stressed while their owner is away. As well as in a clients home, I respect your space and specific instructions on pet care! Ensuring your pets and home’s safety is never an issue.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and currently own several, so I know exactly how to handle different personalities. I have experience with high-energy puppies who need patience and senior dogs who require extra gentle care and attention. I'm currently a student at TJC and work as a server, usually in 4 to 5 hour shifts. This leaves me with a very flexible schedule throughout the week to dedicate plenty of quality time and energy to your pets! I don't host pets in my own home, but I am more than happy to come to yours! I’m extremely respectful of other people's space and always make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment while you're away.
About: Hi! I’m Stephanie. I’m currently home from college for the summer and have a flexible schedule, so I’d love to spend my time caring for your pets! I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience pet sitting through Rover as well as for friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve done drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, and overnight house sitting. I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. I’m reliable, responsible, and will treat your pets like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾💕 I’m currently home from college for the summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and last-minute bookings. Since I have a lot of free time, I’m able to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow all care instructions, keep their routine consistent, and make sure they get plenty of attention and love. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is in good hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Edom
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 169 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edom. 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 Edom 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 Edom 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 Edom 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 Edom. On Rover:
- 100% 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.
