About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was little and have years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’m reliable, responsible, and truly love animals. I treat every dog like family and have great references from people who trust me with their pets. I’m currently in cosmetology school and also work a part-time job Tuesday through Saturday, usually until around 5 PM. Even with my schedule, I always make time to give pets the attention, care, and love they deserve. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to making sure your fur baby feels safe! I have a fenced-in backyard and love going on walks with my fur babies! I’ll make sure your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me.

About: I’ve always enjoyed being with dogs and cats more than people. I am a cat mom currently. I’ll always be reliable and responsible. I love doing it for the pets. I work part time but I make a sitting work anytime. My schedule is flexible as long as I know beforehand. I always want to make sure the pets are well looked after. I have an indoor cat that loves to go outside. I sit with him until he is ready to come inside. I never leave him unsupervised. I will always care and be responsible for any pets like their my own.
About: I tailor my approach to each furbabys individual needs. I ensure they are both comfortable and happy while you are away to make both the parent and furbabys separation less stressful. I have cared for many breeds of different ages and currently have 3 of our own. I am experienced in giving oral medications, light grooming such as brushing/bathing and managing anxious pups. I currently work full-time Tuesday-Friday. I am available for overnight stays and drop-ins depending on day/time-just reach out for availability. Feel free to shoot me a message and inquire. I follow all pet parents rules, feeding times, bed times. I encourage you to provide full instructions in advance to review together in order to provide the best possible care.
About: Your animals are an extension of your family, and they should be treated as such! I am a recent empty nester looking for some fur friends to love on. I have always been a dog mom but lost our last Springer Spaniel, Brody, to old age two years ago. Looking to help another family out with their fur friend on special occasions and overnights. I do not overbook clients. Each family will get individualized attention- no rushing out. If you are on holiday, we can discuss your animals current feeding/bathroom schedule so we can keep them comfortable while you are away. Daily in-home pet care visits are broken down into two (2) 30 minute visits. Each visit includes potty break, fresh food/water (if needed) and playtime. Overnights will be an additional service and you can be add an additional 30 minute visit for an extra $10 on daily checks. At each visit, I will take 2-3 photos of your fur babies and send you an update if you'd like! Every visit will be logged in detail (ie. walked pet, got mail, play visit, feeding and bathroom updates) and left for your records upon completion of services. We can discuss additional request if needed.
About: I've always loved our furry friends: wether sheltering strays for a few days, pet sitting for neighbors, or volunteering at my local shelter I learned each animal has their own personality and temperament but all require some basic needs, like water, food, exercise, mental stimulation, and ofc love! Beyond the practical knowledge of walking, feeding, training, and playing with animals I've also had a personal fascination into the minds of animals (LOVE watching dog training videos and reading up on Donna Haraway). When I mean I love pets and want to make sure they'll have a good time, I mean it! I’ve say both cats and dogs from days to months, small to large, shy to outgoing. Your fur child will be in great hands! I work from home full time, so my availability can be pretty flexible! Open to chat more based on needs and schedules Every animal has a different schedule so like to work around what works best for your pet Building has a fenced in courtyard and a community garden on the corner. There's a couple of cats and dogs in the building but for our apartment unit, your pets would be the only ones (they'll have my undivided attention <3) There is also a dog park about 15 min walking and another green space garden 10 min walking.
About: Since I was a baby, we have always had animals around. Throughout my childhood, we owned different animals such as: dogs, cats, birds, fishes, turtles, and rabbits! I currently own 2 cats and they are what I consider my babies. Owning an animals is an every day commitment. They keep me going and my favorite part of the day is putting together their "fancy" dishes! I understand the importance of having someone reliable to watch your pet! I have 2 cats who are extremely friendly and welcoming. We have many toys, trees, and perches! I respect any boundaries and rules a client has for their specific baby!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 15 years old. My mom is vet so I have taken care of a bunch of her clients dogs. I have also taken care of a lot of my family friends dogs as well as my neighbors. I currently do not have a job outside of this so I will be able to be home with your pets full time including weekends. I live on a farm and have a big fenced yard so your dogs will have a bunch of yard space to run around. I have 1 very friendly dog so your dog will have another one to play with. I have big and small crates if your dog needs to be crated for whatever reason. My mom is also a vet and will be home with me in case your dog has any sort of emergency.

About: After taking care of my dog for a year and having to say goodbye to her, I live vicariously through other pet owners and want to share my love. I feel as though I spiritually connect with dogs specifically, I have a good understanding of them, not to mention I just absolutely adore them. I am able to teach small skills like teaching them to sit, give a paw, and potty training! You will not be disappointed to leave your dog in my hands. I am currently a college student who takes one to two classes a day, and I am working part time Thursday-Sunday. Throughout the weekdays, in between my classes, I am able to check in on your furry loved ones. I am able to do drop ins and walks throughout the entire day Monday-Wednesday. On Thursday and during the weekends, I am available before 3pm and after 10pm. Please contact me for scheduling details about overnight dog sitting. At a clients home, pets are well cared for in my presence. I engage in a lot of playtime with pets, talking, comprehension exercises, 30 minute walks, potty training, and small training commands. Listening and receiving communication signals from your pet is a very important thing to notice, this is something I take pride in being good at. I keep a clean and organized space while I am there and also include costs of cleaning pet related messes in the house while I am pet sitting such as picking up pet hair, cleaning food/water bowls, wiping paw prints, tidying pet areas.
“D'Ashia was excellent with our Harley, she went above and beyond house/ pet sitting while we were out of town. She definitely put our minds at ease especially since this was the first time us leaving her.”

About: Hi my name is Passion! Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s apart of who I am. I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to the occasional rat or fish tank adventure. Growing up in a home full of furry (and sometimes feathery) friends taught me compassion, responsibility, and how to read animals’ unique personalities and needs. I’ve volunteered at the Atlanta Humane Society for over 6 months, where I gained hands-on experience working with pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments in addition to Lifeline Animal Shelter. I also previously worked at PetSmart helping pet parents find everything from the right nutrition to the perfect toy. To top it all off, my mom owns a dog grooming business as well!—so professional pet care has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. We also previously owned and operated a dog-treat business where we were successful in getting shelving writhing boutique pet care retailers. Whether it’s a long walk (I think I may love getting my steps in even more than our friends with four legs haha), a cuddle session, or reliable overnight care, your pets will be in safe, loving, and experienced hands with me. I treat every pet like family—and I mean that furrrreal! Bonus: My partner is a Veterinary Technician! I work a hybrid work schedule so I am grateful for the privilege of flexibility and tailoring my schedule around any personal needs or additional assistance that I provide. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Because I work from home in a calm, quiet environmentally, I’m able to provide constant supervision and personalized care throughout the day. I carefully monitor each pet’s behavior, ensure they have a secure and stress-free space, and tailor their routine to their unique needs. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering medication, or keeping walks controlled and safe, I make sure every detail is handled with attention and love.
About: Hi, I’m Kassidy! I’ve been petsitting for about 10 years, and I’ve taken care of everything from dogs and cats to horses, goats, chickens, and pigs. I genuinely love working with animals, whether that’s hanging out with a shy kitty, going on walks with an energetic dog, or keeping a farm running while you’re away. I’m comfortable giving medications, including injections, and I always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own and do my best to stick to their normal routines so they stay happy and relaxed. If you’re looking for someone dependable, communicative, and experienced with all kinds of animals, I’d love to help! Pet care fits easily into my routine because my schedule is very open right now. I’m taking time off during the holidays to be with my family, so I have plenty of flexibility to give pets consistent attention, walks, check-ins, and companionship throughout the day. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and a calm, safe environment. I keep communication open, monitor behavior closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for.
About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, from small lap dogs to large breeds with high energy and specific care requirements. I am comfortable following detailed routines, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have experience administering medications, including pills, and caring for dogs with special needs, such as senior dogs, those recovering from injuries or surgeries, and pets requiring extra patience and specialized care. I understand the importance of consistency and paying close attention to each dog’s behavior to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have a ROTA schedule for work right now, one week I am fully off and the next I work 3-9pm Monday - Friday and weekends 1030-7. If we can work around it or it’s the week I have off I’d love to help out! However your animals will be top priority when I am available. The care for your furry friend will depend on what they are used to. I follow the guidelines that you have set in place so your animal feels safe and taken care of!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 964 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Emma. 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 Emma 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 Emma 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 Emma 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
