“We had the best experience with Gabriyela! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our boy with her. She sent us frequent updates, it was so nice. I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I have lived with dogs since I was 6 years old. In college, I fostered dogs with my roommates. Neighbors, friends and families have either relied on me or hired me to take care of their dogs in different fashions since I was 13. I am a returned Peace Corps volunteer who just returned from 27 months spent teaching English in México. I am an elementary school teacher, but due to the timing of my return, I will not be returning to the classroom until August of 2027. As such, I have wide open days and nights. My service will vary on my client's needs and expectations. If the expectation is multiple daily walks, there will be multiple daily walks. If the expectation is crating, there will be crating. If the expectation is belly rubs to fall asleep, then belly rubs will be given. Each home and each pet comes with its specific set of requirements, and no one knows those better than the client themselves.
About: Hi, I'm Soraya. I love dogs, and treat every pup that stays with me like my own. I live in a cozy, comfortable apartment that's set up for dogs to actually relax in, not just pass through. I am home almost all day, so your dog is never left alone wondering where everybody went. They get attention, company, and someone to nap next to. You'll get photo updates every single day. I know how it feels to drop your dog off and spend the whole time wondering how they're doing, so I don't make you ask. I am fluent in Spanish, so Spanish-speaking owners can message me in whichever language feels easier. Whether your dog is a cuddler, a talker, or just needs someone patient, I’ve got them. I work from home! So I will be with your dog all day. I start with a morning walk, then your fur baby and I will spend the day together, usually out on the patio getting some sun and some love. Afternoon walk, evening walk, and lots of attention in between. Your dog is never sitting alone waiting for someone to come home. Whatever routine and rules you have for your dog, I follow them exactly. Feeding schedule, crate or no crate, treats, off-limits spots, I uphold every one of them. In my home, love and safety come first. My apartment is calm and comfortable, I am always here, and I keep a close eye on your pup the whole stay. You’ll get daily photos so you always know your dog is being loved and taken care of.
“Julia was great! She maintained Ching's normal routine (including lots of walks) and sent lots of pictures every day. She left the apartment in great condition too. Will definitely book Julia again when travelling in the future!”
“So glad we found Stacy. Stacy stayed with our two boys for a long weekend and everything was wonderful. Boys were happy, well loved and cared for. We've already booked her for our next trip and will plan on even more! Thanks Stacy.”
“The dogs love Jay - including the German Shepherd who usually takes a while to warm up to strangers. Jay is very laid back and good with the dogs. Jay played with the dogs and they were definitely not starving for attention when we returned from our overnight trip. We've already booked Jay again for an eight day trip later this month.”
“Jill was absolutely fantastic with both my dog and my cat! Since they are both elderly, they require a bit of extra grace and attention, and Jill showed incredible patience with my dog, who really needed it. I felt completely comfortable with her coming in and out of our home, and her communication was exactly what we needed to feel at ease while away. It is clear she truly cares about the animals she watches. Jill is definitely a five-star sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jordan took such good care of Sunny Love! She is an 8 month old Aussiedoodle with tons of energy and he was able to give her all the love and attention she needed! He kept her active and engaged, did some training with her, and kept us updated with pictures/videos the entire time. 100% rebooking with him for the future. Thanks again Jordan!”
“Lorie stayed with our three geriatric dogs for ten days. All dogs require different medications, the dogs get up early every morning, no matter when they go out at night, they have to be walked separately, and they all have various issues from congestive heart disease, arthritis, weak joints and Cushing disease. Lorie did an amazing job with each dog and continually sent us daily updates. She is extremely calm, conscientious, and loves the dogs as if they were her own. We so appreciate all of her hard work, never worry when we leave the dogs in her care, and most of all, are grateful to have found an amazing dog sitter.”
“Bennett was phenomenal. We have 3 kittens and needed someone to stay over to watch them. Incredibly responsive, very communicative, and even more so thoughtful, we were impressed by Bennett. Very willing to send several photos a day, tell you any updates as needed, and provide you the kind of peace of mind any pet owner wants to be able to enjoy their vacation without stressing over if their pets are okay.”
“Summer is amazing! She took fabulous care of our three dogs (and our house) while we were out of town. She sent tons of pictures and was very communicative, and all of our pets were happy and healthy when we returned. I would highly recommend Summer to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
About: Hello, I’m Fern (Magdalen) I love animals, I find them to be the most pure little buddies. I have experience with leash pullers and dog reactive dogs. I have experience with cats with medical needs such as administering pills, ear drops, ointments and syringe feedings. I find that pets respond best when you speak to them like they’re human. I enjoy sticking to routine with pets and I ensure pups get plenty of stimulation! I work Mondays through Thursdays 7am-5:30pm. I work remotely Mondays and Wednesdays. I am available to house sit Fridays-Mondays. I am available for walks Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. Depending on distance, morning and midday walks are tricky unless I am house sitting. I pay attention to the animal’s needs. I tend to talk to the pet as if they were a person. I find animals respond well to it and it helps establish trust. I enjoy playing with both cats and dogs. Extra enrichment when the owner is away is key to help relieve pent up anxieties. I love long walks with dogs. I am good with routines and adhere closely to the guidelines set by the owner.
“Gabriela took such good care of our Willow and our home! Willow is reactive and took some time to warm up and through the process she communicated so well and was incredibly understanding and patient! She also sent plenty of pictures to let us know all was going well so we could enjoy our time away!”

This was our second time hiring Andrea to housesit for our dog June, and we look forward to working with her again in the future! She is communicative, responsible, trustworthy, and sends the BEST pics of our girl! Thanks for making this part of our wedding weekend so easy, Andrea!
Sherri was great with Ballard. He is a bit hesitant around new people but she got him to warm up to her. She obviously loves dogs and is good with them. Spent the night at our house with him. Walked him and sent lots of pictures. Left the house immaculate! Will definitely use again.
Toby was fantastic with Pippy and Simba! He was incredibly flexible with our plans, including a last-minute change. He clearly has a great way with dogs—both pups were very comfortable with him, and Pippy, who has lots of energy, came home happy, relaxed, and calm. He walked them regularly, kept us updated with great photos, and took wonderful care of them throughout the stay. Toby is friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. He has that calm, positive energy that dogs seem to immediately feel comfortable with. We’ll definitely book with him again!
I just got back from my trip and once I catch up I want to leave a more detailed review BUT for now I have to say Joyce is absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond. My two wild dogs, my plants, my house, everything is happy! I don’t even know how to say it all. But she is an angel!
What a gem! We are so lucky to have found Madison. She truly was such a gift. We are very picky with our dogs and treat them as our children, and she did as well. From lots of snuggles, to frequent pictures, she made it known how loved they were in our absence. In addition, even when things went wrong, such as them having an accident, she was cool and collected, and took care of things. The house was immaculate when we returned. We will definitely be using Madison again!
We had the pleasure of having Lorie take care of Philip while we were away, and she did an outstanding job. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We came back to a spotless home just as we left it, and most importantly, Philip was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her!
Katie was absolutely wonderful! My dogs are not always the easiest but she handled everything perfectly. Katie was punctual, kept me updated while I was gone, and followed all instructions I left her. I highly recommend Katie to anyone who is in need of a sitter for their pups!

The average cost of House Sitting in Embry Hills is $55 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $102 per night.

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 Embry Hills 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 Embry Hills 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 Embry Hills 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.
