“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be more pleased with how it all worked out. Starting with how easy it was to schedule. Victoria was very easy to work with and communicated with me throughout the complete process from the meet and greet to locking the door on her way out in the end. She sent pictures ever day and I came how to a happy hound dog. I look forward to scheduling her again.”
“We had Emily over for the first time. We were very impressed. It’s difficult to come into a strange house with three cats that don’t know you. She paid meticulous details to my cats and their needs. It is obvious she loves animals. She went above and beyond in care for our cats and our home. We were reassured with a lot of pictures all throughout our vacation. Highly recommended.”
“Katherine did a great job taking care of our dog and the house. We really appreciated her updates, communication, and cleanliness. We would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future!”
About: I grew up around many animals, especially dogs! Breeds I’m most familiar with include shar-peis, pitbulls, rottweilers, and German shepherds! I’ve also taken care of bunnies, guinea pigs, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons, so no pet is too much for me! I just graduated university and am looking to return to university online to get a second bachelors degree, so I currently am not looking for a job and instead would love to be able to get out of the house and boost my serotonin by meeting people’s pets! I love cuddling with pets and seeing their personalities start to shine through as they get more comfortable! I love taking dogs on walks, seeing how long it will take a cat to choose to sit with me, and holding reptiles for as long as they like! Just being around a person’s pet while their owner is away makes me feel great since I know I’m giving the owner peace of mind while making a new friend.
“Victoria is amazing! We were struggling with leaving our fur babies for a week, but Victoria put our mind at ease. She took such good care of our babies and home. When she stopped by to drop off the key all of our dogs (3 of them) were excited to see her again. To top it off, she is just a genuinely amazing person that is kind and trustworthy. We will absolutely be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve been petsitting/housesitting for just over 6 years. I’ve worked with rescue dogs that have trauma, dogs with epilepsy, dogs with anxiety, dogs that need high energy output, as well as senior dogs. I’ve administered medications in a timely manner and have coordinated care with many owners. I will diligently work for you and your pups! I’m a home nail tech, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m petsitting, I’m able to build my days around care if need be. I’m quick to learn the routine of the pets, and I do my best to fit within it so the pets can have the most comfort.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong foundation in professional animal care and my passion for creating stress-free, positive experiences for pets. I’m Fear Free Certified, so I’m trained in techniques that help reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in animals—especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. I’m also a veterinary professional where on a daily basis I deal with animal behavior, health, and basic care. This knowledge helps me better understand your pet’s needs, whether they’re a rambunctious puppy, a senior with special care requirements, or anything in between. I approach every animal with patience, empathy, and respect—and I truly treat them like part of the family. I usually am free 6 days a week! My schedule is based on where I am that day or what other gigs I have going on. I have reliable transportation and will be able to watch pets in their home if need be to avoid stress of car rides and new places. I am very attentive to each pets need, because just like humans, each pet is different!
“Shelby did an amazing job. My GSD doesn’t always like new people but when Shelby arrived she ran to get her ball for play. Would definitely recommend Shelby for house/dog sitting.”
About: My family has owned dogs and cats since before I have memories. I was that kid that preferred to watch Animal Planet and I've always been passionate about all critters. I started working as a stable hand with horses when I was only 10. I also worked at Sumner Veterinary Hospital in the boarding facility for a little over a year and received employee of the month twice in that time. During my time working at Sumner Vet I worked with all breeds and temperaments! It truly was some of the most rewarding work of my life. I currently have one 25lb mutt dog that I love and my first personal dog was my Rottie mix, Rocky. My family housed dogs and cats of every kind. I'm not skitish when it comes to "large personalities" and am confident in getting to know your fur baby at their pace. Know that with me, your fur babies are in loving, patient and experienced hands I currently work as a dog trainer and am attending school for behavior modification. I love walks myself and can't wait to walk your puppers. I have experience handling every kind of dog, and cat. From sweet and excited to shy or reactive. I can administer medications and am very thorough in following house schedules and plans
“Brooklyn was a delight from the moment we met. She was very thorough at our meet and greet with her own questionnaire. Updates throughout her stay were perfect.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and various animals my entire life. Therefor I have experience, house sitting, pet sitting and dog walking; not just for my own family but for others as well. Since I am currently waiting for my job at the Washington Conservation Corps to start in October 1st, I am willing and able to dedicate all of my time to taking care of your furry family. In my own home I have 4 dogs, so I am plenty comfortable with the daily tasks it requires for taking care of dogs. On a regular basis I walk my dogs, clean up after them and of course feed them twice a day. All of which I am prepared to do for your dogs.
About: I have had pets my whole life and I have about a decade of experience taking care of a range pets cats, dogs, kittens, puppies, big dogs, and small dogs I am currently unemployed and doing school online and I do not have any extracurriculars that I will need to focus on so I have lots of free time I will treat your pets and home with care and respect and will make sure I will keep in mind any additional details you provide me with
“Truly the pet whisperer! She stayed with my pets for most of the day and my cats instanty warmed up to her. My dogs loved her and felt right at ease with her. She did phenomenally and I'd definitely rebook with he!”
“Fawn was amazing. I can’t recommend her enough. We have a dog with behavioral issues that also takes medication everyday, she handled it so well. We were gone for over a week and not once did I feel uncomfortable, nervous or anxious. We will definitely be booking with Fawn again. THE BEST!”
“Emalie was a great sitter for our two dogs and two cats. She was very communicative and shared photos of our littles daily. She followed our care instructions and was conscientious of each animals specific needs. We look forward to hiring her again!”
“Gisella was an outstanding pet sitter. She went above and beyond to care for my 11 years old golden retriever, Samhara. The two bonded instantly. She played with Sam, walked her, fed her and when time came for Gisella to leave, Sam was glued to her; wouldn’t want her to go. I can’t describe the feeling of knowing that your dog is happy and safe while you travel. I highly recommend Gisella!”
“MyQueena was so great! This was my first time using Rover as a client since we moved and I’m so glad I found her. All of the animals took to her instantly, even one of our more shy cats loved her. Will definitely be booking again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,489 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Electron. 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 Electron 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 Electron 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 Electron 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
