“Sandi is an amazing dogsitter. My two pups were well taken care of, happy and comfortable with Sandi. She also watered allll of my plants while I was gone and took great care of our house. Highly recommend Sandi!! Thank you!!”
“Betty was great with our house and our boys! She was attentive to the extra needs of our 2 dogs and kept in contact with us. Our house was left in the same condition we left it! Betty is a gem!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and have always loved caring for animals. I also worked at a veterinary clinic as a kennel technician, where I cared for dogs and cats by feeding them, cleaning their spaces, exercising them, and making sure they were comfortable and well cared for. I as well have house sit and dog sit many times for family or family friends. My experience has taught me how to recognize animals’ needs, handle pets of different personalities, and provide patient, reliable care. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m available most weekdays and on weekends, and I’m committed to providing reliable, care for you and your pets needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions, keep your pet on their normal routine, and provide plenty of love, attention, and playtime.
“Hayley was super-attentive and it was always very obvious that she loves taking care of the kitties and chickens. I would definitely recommend her and would ask her for her services again in the future.”
“Lee was fantastic! Tilly was happy and had plenty of exercise. Our home was left in wonderful condition. Lee communicated with us well and forwarded great "glamour shots" of Tilly. I highly recommend him.”
“Caleb took really good care of Axel and left the house nice and clean for my return. Axel is getting older so it was lovely that Caleb was able to stay with him all day and make sure he was getting attention. Healso took some great pictures while I was away and it helped put my mind at ease.”
About: I have over a year of experience working at a dog daycare, caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also have three dogs and two cats of my own, so I understand the love and responsibility that come with pet care. I'll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention, playtime, walks, and care they deserve. I always follow your pet's routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I'll provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, and updates while keeping your home clean and secure.
About: I currently own a 5 year old Rottweiler, and an 8 month old Cane Corso puppy. Before them, growing up I never wanted kids just wanted a petting zoo of fur babies. Unfortunately due to not having a big enough house, my zoo is on hold. But in the meantime, I get to enjoy other puppies and watch them anytime at my convenience. I’m good with watching any dog big or small! Currently I work full time at a hospital 3 days a week. Any other time I’m free! I work 12 hours a day. I have a schedule in about 3 months in advance, so I’m okay to book to your schedule and work something out. When watching other fur babies, I like to ask owners their day to day schedule. That includes what time they wake up, what time they like to be walked at and what time they normally have the zoomies to play. Their daily schedule shouldn’t change only because their owner is gone on vacation.

FAQs for House Sitting - Eldredge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 73 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Eldredge. 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 Eldredge 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 Eldredge 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 Eldredge 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
