“jillian was there when we needed her and sat with our pups while we had to take care of medical issues… the pups bonded with her immediately… They werw sad when she left.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. Ive always had pets in the house and I have always had responsibilities to take care of them. Our 14 year old husky/heeler mix just crossed the rainbow bridge but we had him since he was 8 weeks old so dont worry if your babies are loud and rowdy I can handle it. I also have a sweet 2 year old corgi who is basically a toddler and a t-rex combined. I have two adorable cats who I love. I have house sat for family members for the past 5-6 years and love getting to spend time with their animals. I currently work full time but I leave early (usually around 6:30 am) and get back early (usually about 4:00pm) but weekends im all yours!! So there is plenty of time for play! I will follow your schedule as needed. I know how important it is to keep things at home as stable as possible when it comes to your pets! But dont worry there will be lots of love and playtime!!
“Tawny was so great with our dog, Hank! Took her on walks and was very attentive with her. He is an excellent communicator. Keeping us up to date before he arrived and while watching Hank. I would definitely book him again!”
About: I absolutely love animals! I have experience with having up to 30 dogs in one yard and understand their body language to avoid fights and tiffs. I would love to help care for your fur babies to make sure they are happy and healthy! I have open availability mornings on weekdays! Evenings sometime are a little more tricky for me. If you are in need for help over a weekend reach out! I might be able to! 😁 I love making sure your pet is happy, safe and healthy. I have close attention to detail if you have any concerns, stuff to be aware of or things to be checked up on.
“Jade did a great job for us while we were away, She kept us informed with how our dogs were doing and if she notified us if something was out of the norm. She even made sure to bring our packages that were left on our porch.”
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, and rodents since I was 10 years old, and my love for animals has only grown more over the years. I understand that every pet is unique and has different needs. I offer each animal the patience and respect they need to feel safe and build trust with me. I do not have a set schedule with my regular job, and I work on average of 5 hours on days I do work. I will be available to check on your during nights if I'm not sleeping over if you need me to! I will not be hosting pet sitting at my place. Set up and show me how your pets feel comfortable in their environment. Tell me about your pet's personality(ies) and their boundaries! 😊
“Caroline was fantastic with our Golden Retriever and Border Collie this weekend! She clearly has a great way with dogs both of ours came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. She kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dog loving sitter!””
“I am very grateful that Jessica cared for and hung with my senior pup, Sky, over the Holiday. She was responsive, reliable, and communicated very well. I received frequent pictures of Sky, who definitely looked like she was enjoying herself. Most importantly, I felt at ease that she was in good hands and getting lots of love while I was away. Will certainly book Jessica as a sitter again!”
About: I have had a wide range of cats and dogs that I have taken care of during my entire life. I know how to relate to and take care of several different breeds of dogs, I have a high rate of tolerance and I can really understand what are the necessities of any dog. I love them with all my heart just as you do as the owner, as I am a dog owner as well. I know how important it is to have a place that you can trust your pet to be while you are traveling, at work, or just need to go somewhere for a moment and need someone to trust to take care of your furry friend. Please note that my schedule is always subject to change, please contact me to confirm availability for specific times. (I.E. walk/groom your dog, feed/groom your cat, etc... 8a.m., I am unavailable the rest of the day or I'm unavailable in the morning and available to help out 7pm and later - PLEASE MESSAGE ME FOR EXACT HOURLY APPOINTMENTS TO CONFIRM AVAILABILITY. THANK YOU! I currently work part-time so I will have lots of time to be able to take care of your puppies. I have different days available each week however each of those days I'm completely available to help out with whatever I possibly can during our scheduled times, unless otherwise noted. I have a very spacious home where your dog/cat can roam as they please and find the comfortable place that they wish to relax. I also can give them attention based upon their needs if they have dietary needs, etc... and just let them relax and take care of them, feed them and take them on walks. I am currently studying part-time, so I have plenty of time to look after your pups or kitties. Same-day bookings are currently available for house-sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking. I can be trusted with keys/codes; I am very prudent about respecting others' property and only request that all relevant house rules are laid out before house-sitting. I will maintain reasonably consistent communication throughout the booking to keep the pup and/or kitty owners informed and rest assured their loved ones are in good hands.
“Elan is Amazing! Our dog is a shelter rescue, and has difficulty opening up and trusting strangers. Elan demonstrated incredible patience and understanding with her. He was outstanding caring for her while we were away for a week. He sent several updates throughout the week, which was great for us to see. 10/10. We would highly recommend Elan, and will definitely look to use his services again in the future.”
“WOW! This was our first time using Rover. Larissa was amazing. She sent us pictures and videos of our little Yorkie. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again. Thanks Larissa!”
“Mark was fantastic with our fur baby Sven! It was so nice to not have to worry about Sven while on vacation because Mark treated him like he was his own! Sven is very needy and loves cuddles and Mark fully embraced our big floof! I would highly recommend him if you were looking for a sitter! He also kept the house tidy and did some light cleaning upon our return! We will definitely be booking him again in the future!”
“I debated about leaving Harper a rating for the sole reason that if word got out about how awesome she is I might have a hard time booking her in the future. I have a 15 year old dog that is extremely attached to me and suffers from separation anxiety. I had an opportunity of a lifetime to visit several countries in Europe, but hesitated because of my fear that something might happen while I was gone. We did several trial runs and by the time I left I knew that I was going to have a great time knowing that Chloe would too. Harper is very caring and attentive and provided numerous pictures and updates per day. She comes highly recommended. If I can trust my Chloe with her rest assured you can too!!!”
“Jarrod was awesome, he really treated our house and pets like his own. He tidied up our house and did the dishes, he even vacuumed! He consistently communicated with us and sent us all the photos! Thank you, Jarrod!”
“We have never left our pets for this long before so we were a bit nervous beforehand. Everything went great! We returned home to happy, well cared for pets. Thank you!!!!!”
About: I have had many many family dogs over the years and have lots of experience with pet-sitting. I offer house/pet sitting, boarding, daycare, and check-ins. I have provided care for dogs of all ages, especially those with special needs and the elderly. I have strong bonds with most, if not all dogs I encounter and love having additional play pals for my dogs's to play with. I have trained my Shepherd as a therapy dog and she is wonderful with younger pups who need a little role-modeling from an older and wiser pup like my girl. I have worked with dogs in many capacities from therapeutic work - to search and rescue and much more. I am pack-oriented and would love to add your pup for the day or to board overnight. We love the additional four-leggeds in our home and look forward to working with you and yours. I currently work from home with my 2.5 year old pup. I am available for boarding if your pet is house-trained and walks well on leash. I find that my boarding pups do best if they can join our daily walks for mental and physical stimulation and would love to bring yours along for the adventure! My dog gets a daily walk, and your pet would come along. We live near a vast number of parks, and the Jordan River Trail which makes for great adventures! My dogs and yours have a BIG fenced yard and can go in and out as they please. We live in a spacious home where the dogs are free to play and enjoy themselves in a very stress free environment with no children or other adults. My animals are fed twice per day; once in the morning and evening. My pups enjoy several treats throughout the day - especially for positive reinforcement and training purposes. You can expect your pet to be treated like one of my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Erda
Jillian is the best dog sitters we have ever had! She watched our three dogs in our home for 2 nights and 3 whole days. I never once felt worried about our dogs or our home while we were gone. She stayed in communication with us and sent plenty of pictures and gave us updates about how they were doing. We would most definitely hire her again to watch our dogs and we highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Erda
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,094 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Erda. 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 Erda 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 Erda 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 Erda 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.
