“Meretta is amazing! Gus got plenty of exercise and playtime, and lots of cuddles and love. He was very well taken care of and got all the affection and companionship he needed. Meretta sent us a couple updates and pictures each day. Our daughter loved getting updates and seeing pictures of her puppy each day that we were gone. We highly recommend Meretta to everyone we know!”
“Kelsey was absolutely great, I felt very comfortable leaving both dogs with her while away. I got multiple pictures and videos throughout the night and she was always readily available. I will definitely be using Kelsey again to watch my dogs, everything was in tip top shape when I got home!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I'm excited to take care of your furry family. I've trained horses and I have a dog of my own who is very sweet and kind. I'm able to walk your pets, or drop by all hours of the day. I'll make sure they're well taken care of and loved 😋🩷 I have an open house, large back yard and a sizable built in kennel off to the side of the house. I'll be able to take care of all your pets needs and we'll have lots of fun together
“Jonah was spectacular!! My Winston was very well cared for and loved on while I was gone. In addition, my house remained clean and Jonah even put the sheets in to wash and dry! He maintained the security of my home and was super respectful. Hoping to make him my "go to" sitter!”
“Brody was professional, responsive, and communicative. He got along so well with my big, energetic dogs and took good care of our home. I’ll definitely book with him again!”
“Mark was fantastic! We have a loveable golden retriever with some health issues and we are definitely anxious dog parents. It was so nice to know our pup was in good hands while we were gone. Mark came over for a meet 'n greet beforehand, was great about sending updates, was reliable with all of Maui's medical needs, chill about our helicopter parenting, and so sweet and loving toward our doggo. And he took good care of our house too. We would recommend him to all dog parents! :)”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we decided to take a chance because in the past we’ve always relied on family to watch our dogs while we were on vacation. We have one pup with high anxiety who doesn’t do well in kennels, and neither of our dogs are great with other dogs, so we were definitely nervous. Sarah completely put our minds at ease. She cared for them and treated them like they were her own. We received updates, knew they were in great hands, and could actually enjoy our vacation without worrying. I honestly think they may have enjoyed their time with Sarah more than they do with us! We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Kylie was amazing! Our dog Lila can take a while to warm up to new people, and Kylie was able to come ahead of her scheduled time to meet Lila and they hit it off immediately! She checked in with us every day and sent pictures of our babies, which made us feels even more comfortable. We will definitely be using Kylie as a sitter again!!!”
“Outstanding! I can’t say it enough how amazing Kelsey was with my animals and keeping me updated, and I came home to a clean smelling good house. If you need a sitter pick Kelsey! You’ll be so thrilled you did and won’t regret it! She will for sure be out to pick every time!”
“Isabelle took great care of our dog and our home. Everything was immaculate when we returned and our dog was happy and healthy. We will definitely ask Isabelle to stay in our home with our dog again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I love animals with everything and I would love to help people out that want to travel or don’t have a lot of time to be home.

I have open availability throughout the week and the weekends so if you are going on a trip and need an extra hand, I am willing to help out I will always be their best friend! Talk to them feed them take them outside go on walks play with them and watch movies with them
“Our cats seemed very happy and well taken care of when. We returned home. Janica respected our space and cleaned up after herself. Our cats decided to not use the robot little box as usual and she was great about keeping the regular litter box clean.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 6. I’m a huge animal lover so I’d be happy to watch your pets whenever you need me too or would like me too. I currently work full-time for assisted living but would love an extra part time job as things are so expensive nowadays and my paychecks aren’t cutting it sometimes! My husband and I own a pup and 2 kitties. The pup is kennel trained and mostly potty trained (he’s still a pup and therefore is still learning.) the kitties on the other hand are high energy goofballs but warm up pretty efficiently to other animals. They don’t really like dogs but they will tolerate them as long as the dog leaves them alone.
About: I’ve watched dogs ever since my nana got her dog when I was 9, I am a huge animal lover and have studied there mannerisms I work full time but love coming home to seeing pups, love playing fetch and going to the dog park. And cuddles, and just hanging out I have a fenced yard, and two very friendly dogs, one small one big. One loves fetch and the other loves playing with dogs, I also have a pool that’s not open yet but if your dog loves swimming then perfect

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kimberly. We booked the week prior for an overnight so we could take a quick trip to CO for a concert. Kimberly was friendly & communicative the week leading up to the booking and checked in the evening before. She arrived at 6:30 am with such a warm energy and immediately won the pups over. Grimm seemed instantly attached to her! It was very sweet. I was a bit worried since it was our first time using Rover, & the first time leaving the boys with someone other than their grandparents. We felt comfortable with Kimberly right off the bat and we knew our boys were in good hands. I loved that she sent lots of photos & videos while we were away & let us know how well they were doing. She followed all care instructions perfectly. She even left us beautiful flowers she cut from her garden. I would 100% trust Kimberly to care for my furbabies again in the future. I feel blessed to have found and connected with such a good human. Thank you Kimberly! 💛🐾”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 779 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Elberta. 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 Elberta 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 Elberta 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Elberta 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.
