About: 🐾 🐕 Caring Professional Pet Sitter! 🐾 Hi, I’m Stephanie— pet lover of all age pets! I can’t recall a time when I didn’t have a dog to snuggle!! I provide full service pet care including walks, cuddles, feeding, providing medications and attention so they feel right at home. From your senior pup to high energy pup, I haven’t met a dog yet who I didn’t click with. I treat your pet like my own! I currently have an adolescent Golden Retriever, 50 chickens and two barn cats who I care for at home! I determine my schedule tailored,also, to the needs of others! Whether it’s taking your furry friend on a nice walk outside, pet socialization, or providing them with food and water- I treat your bestie like my own!!! I am a professional caregiver as a Bachelors Degree RN, previous cat owner, lifelong dog owner, Mom of 4 and spouse. I also specialize in customer service as a skincare and beauty consultant-furthering my realm of caring for others! As a recent Cancer survivor, creating my own work schedule is very beneficial because life can be unpredictable!!! I love getting out for brief exercise and fresh air with your pets & in home drop in socialization with them, too, it is very therapeutic and beneficial to my health! I appreciate that you give me the amazing gift of sharing your pet with me! I do have a fenced in back yard and large dog crate, when I care for your dog at their home they have the benefit of staying in their familiar environment.

I believe animals thrive on socialization with people and vice versa!
About: Hello, I'm Carly! I have had dogs my entire life and I have extensive experience working at kennels, pet boarding facilities, and pet supply retail. I have an unconditional love for all animals and would do whatever it takes to make a dog or pup happy! I am a dog sitter, groomer, and a gaming streamer/content creator. Currently, I make my own schedule. I have open availability on weekends and can discuss weekly availability! I have 3 dogs that are all nearing their elder years but they are all still pups to me! They get vitamins and supplements every morning and evening with their all natural dog food. We go on walks everyday to maintain flexibility and hip/joint health. My dogs and my cat are everything to me and are a huge part of my daily routine. Nobody understands better than I do wanting your pet to feel cared and loved for during the day when you can’t be present. I have 5 acres of unfenced, wooded property. My pets, as well as any furry guests, are of top priority in my household! They are treated like family and I am always aware of where they’re at when exploring the property
About: I’ve been around and have always loved all animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, ferrets, and fish. Open to helping with any pets. I work full time Monday-Thursday but I’m completely open to care for your pets Friday-Sunday. I like being active and getting outside so your pets will get all the walks and activity. At home my cats and dogs are free to roam the home. The yard is not fenced so we do use a cable in the backyard or go for walks on the leash for potty breaks.
“Kate is amazing! She took great care of our Fiona, sent many updates with pictures and took wonderful care of our home. We highly recommend Kate for your dog/house sitting needs!!”
“Caitlin was amazing! She responded quickly to my request and came over to meet our Gus and come up with a plan. She was infinitely patient with our skittish boy. We decided to do in home visits and she sent daily updates while we were gone. She even went above and beyond, shoveling our snow and getting the mail. She is definitely our number one choice for next time!”
“Alyssa was a perfect fit for our household of one momma dog and her 6 puppies. She was attentive to making sure all the puppies were eating and all the bathroom breaks the mom wanted. She would send updates and pictures to ease my mind. I would highly recommend her.”
“Bonnie is amazing. She took extra special care of our fur baby and our home. She went above and beyond. She sent pictures and texts assuring us that all was well. We would highly recommend Bonnie! We will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I’ve always had many pets growing up especially guinea pigs, dogs, bunnies and cats! I’m a huge pet lover and get along with all types of animals. I’ve volunteered at pet clinics and I’ve walked pretty much all kinds of dogs of all ages from a week old pups to senior since I volunteer at pet shelters as well! You can trust me to be the best pet caretaker!🐾 💗 Since my family has a Golden retriever, a few guinea pigs and cats, i’m always used to taking care of animals. I’m available most days all day since i’m doing school online! I can go on nice long walks and take care of your animal however you request! 🌸💗 I care for my pets everyday and give them all the love and attention in the world! I definitely would prefer taking care of your pet(s) in your home since I live with other family members who already have cats, bunnies, and a pup.
“Jordan was a great dog/house sitter! She checked-in multiple times during her time there and sent many pictures of my dog so I knew they were good! She was great to work with and I will be using her again!”
“This was the first time leaving Millie with someone other than family. Bailey was so kind and gentle with Millie. We never felt that we made the wrong choice in leaving her. Bailey let us know that Millie settled in well, and became her little shadow. Will definitely use Bailey again.”
About: Just here to be a friend to your family! I know it's hard to leave them but think about how good it will feel to know your favorite furry friend is in good hands! This is hopefully going to be my job time gig! This is something I really do love to do! And I can't wait to meet your pet! So a good thing about me is I am certified in pet CPR. Your pet's safety and over all well being is my first a top priority
“We are SO GLAD that we met Molly. She instantly bonded with our two dogs. We hired her to stay with them while we were out of town recently. Everything went really well. It was such a relief not having to worry about our pups. We will be hiring her again for our next trip and we highly recommend her.”
“Kailey did a great job pet and house sitting for us while we were on a trip. She managed two stubborn huskies and a house full of cats and kept an eye on things for us. Everything was well taken care of. She contacted us for questions and clarification as needed, communication was great.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs. I can do feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic grooming needs, medication if needed, and lots of love and attention. I’m patient, reliable, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working full time 7-4, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups in the evenings! I’m available for walking dogs during the week at 5pm and anything later than that. I have a friendly pup to keep your fur babies company during their stay. I do not have a fenced in yard but that’s not a problem! I will take them out on leashes and for walks
“Rom seemed very comfortable with Megan and I felt at peace knowing my pup is in good hands. Megan was also very accommodating and came in earlier than I had initially scheduled, thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 471 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Emmett. 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 Emmett 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 Emmett 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 Emmett 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 with handling special pet needs in Emmett. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
