Emma Grace was a fantastic dog/house sitter. She asked and understood our girls routine and quirks 🤣. We will definitely be using Emma Grace again, she went above and beyond for Aubie 🐾🥰 and house was spotless on our return.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I've been a boy. I've owned many different breeds from large to small, my current dogs are all rescues from Hawaii giving them a beautiful life here in Alabama giving them loves hugs and kisses every day. My daughter (Fay) is 27 and also helps with the dogs when I'm not home. Im retired so im available morning afternoons and nights plus overnight if needed. Always following schedules or routines food, water meds walks or playtime for sure. Keeping your fur babies are safe and plenty of rubs and love. At my home I always check my gates and fence line for safety. I always go out with them for safety, walks and playtime. Separate or rotate pets at feeding time if needed and treat time. I ask about your house rules and follow the instructions for any special needs for each pet, food mediation walks. I always double check gates locks making sure everything is secure before leaving.

About: I am an animal lover to my core. I’ve worked with animals throughout my life helping out my neighbors, friends, family, and colleagues. I enjoy taking my own pups to the dog park and throwing a ball and watch them run around! I’m currently in college however 4 out of my five classes are online, that being said, I am unavailable from 2-4 on Monday and Wednesday. But available before or after during those days and available any day of the week. Your pup will get to play with my pups unless specified otherwise. I have a local dog park that I take all my dogs that I sit. With me, you can be sure that your dog is being cared for and I will make sure they’re being watched at all times! I’m currently in school from 1-3pm Mondays and Wednesdays but I am available throughout the week if it’s not during those times! I do not have a fenced in yard but I take my own pups to the dog park, yours are more than welcome to tag along!

About: I’ve been handling animals ever since I was 13, this includes cats, dogs, and even bunnies! (I had one that I let free roam). Cats and Bigger dogs are always a personal favorite but I truly love animals and even considered going into veterinary sciences! I can assure you, your animal is in great hands seeing as I have a cat and two dogs myself! I’m a current part-time nursing student who uses this as a sort of side job on top of my normal job that i work at full time (30hrs a week), but i still have a lot of time to care for critters of any kind! Whenever I’m at my Aunt and Uncles for up to a week dog sitting and house sitting for them, I make sure to feed both of their dogs and let them out at least every 1-2 hours especially after feeding them, and they stay outside for about 30mins-1 hour, but i don’t mind walking animals at all either! And of course I like to cuddle up with animals if they allow me too and give them play time as well as a little down time to cuddle up and be content!

An absolute gem! Jessie took amazing care of my dogs and treated them like family. She was great at communicating. She made me feel at ease. She came to meet my fur babies ahead of time and I loved her personality. She is reliable, sweet, and professional—I couldn’t ask for a better sitter!"

Hannah was great and took excellent care of our babies while we were gone. She was very respectful of our home and sent pictures several times thruout the day to let us know what the pups were up too. She vacuumed because our fur babies shed a lot and ran the dishwasher. We will be using Hannah again for any trips we take short or long!

Garrison was amazing! Our dog got hurt before we left and he was so caring and patient with her. He played so much with our cat that I think he will find us boring now that we’re home. He kept the house so clean and updated us so much. I will definitely use him in the future and so should YOU!

About: Since 2016, I’ve provided loving, reliable care for dogs of every size and personality. Whether it’s overnight house sitting, medication support, long walks, or simply being a comforting presence, I make sure each animal feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I communicate clearly and consistently, keeping you updated so you can relax while you’re away. My approach is gentle, attentive, and tailored to each dog’s routine and emotional needs. With references available and years of experience, I offer loving care when you can’t be there—because your dog deserves to feel at home, even when you’re not. I currently work part time and do online school part time. I am a hospitality coordinator at a business and then am working towards my ultrasound tech degree. I am gone for about 6 hours a day for work and then can spend the rest of the time at your house or dropping by to care for the dogs. I love movies and being a home body, so it is the perfect fit for me! I do not care for pets in my own home. I am available for overnight sitting in your home or drop in care. I care about safety and making sure it is secure and locked each time I leave. I wash the sheets if I stay overnight and make it seem like I was never there except for well-cared for pets.

About: I love dog. I’m a very out doors person. I play in college so with me I love taking them on walks the dog park. I’m currently a student-athlete playing volleyball at Birmingham, and I’m home all day after practice and have a flexible schedule. I’m very disciplined with my time, so I can reliably care for pets early mornings, evenings, or throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m doing this to help support my schooling, so I take it seriously. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have a spacious apartment and a pet washing station so I can always give your pet a bath and a pet-friendly home where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease. I also have experience being around other dogs, so I’m attentive to their behavior and make sure everyone is supervised and comfortable.

About: Ive taken care of animals since I was a child, I volunteer at pet shelters and have training as a vet tech from a vet clinic. I am a mama bear when it comes to all animals, they are treated with respect and love. I am a receptionist and mother of 2 boys, and my husband works from home as an accountant. Your dog or cat will be in great hands, I will walk them and take potty breaks. When I am away at work or the store they will be separated from other animals and given toys and water until I get home. I keep an eye on them with a baby monitor. My husband works from home and will also be helping me take care of the fur babies. When we are home they will be out and monitored and loved on. They sleep in crates at night on occasion or in our bed. They get healthy treats and tons of toys. They have a fenced yard to play and run in.

Kari and Alex did such a great job taking care of our puppy and cat while we were away for over a week. They communicated regularly and sent us pictures and videos several times a day so we always knew our pets were taken care of and having a good time. They even cleaned up after a leak that occurred while we were on our way home and checked in with our neighboring condos about it. It was a relief not to have to worry about the pets while on vacation because we knew they were in capable hands. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Erratta

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 548 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Erratta. 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 Erratta 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 Erratta 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 Erratta 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 Erratta. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
