“Maya was so amazing with my dog and cat! I was stress free knowing they were in her care! She sent the cutest photos and frequent updates. I will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Laney did great with our pets! She was very responsive to our texts, sent updates and pictures when requested, and left the house clean for our return. She gave the dogs lots of outside time, and gave all the animals lots of love and snuggles. We'd absolutely book her again for future trips.”
“Angelica took wonderful care of our sensitive older dog, Buddy. Since it had been quite some time since we last left him, we were naturally a bit nervous, but Angelica made the whole experience very reassuring. She kept us updated with Buddy’s activities and sent lots of great pictures, which really helped us feel confident that he was well cared for and loved while we were away. It was clear that Buddy and Angelica got along wonderfully, and that meant the world to us. When we returned home, everything was in perfect order and Buddy was relaxed and content. We’re so grateful for the care and attention Angelica gave him, and we look forward to and would absolutely trust her with Buddy again.”
“Sebastian did a great job watching my golden retriever! He made sure she got lots of attention and walks throughout the day, and the house was spotless when I returned. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Jon was amazing with the dogs! We got regular updates and could tell they were having a blast – walks, playtime, and even a special hike up into the mountains that honestly looked like a spot I’d love to check out myself. ;) The house was in great shape when we got back, and he even washed his bedding and towels before heading out. He grabbed the mail, took out the trash, and did a solid job cleaning up after the pups (we all know that’s no easy task!). We’re super happy with how everything went and would definitely love to have him back next time, if he's available!”
“Emma did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and our home over a long weekend. She was really communicative and checked in about some of the dogs specific behavior since it was her first time staying with them. We came home to happy pups and a clean house, will definitely reach out to her to stay with our dogs again!”
“Catie is absolutely wonderful and we will absolutely be booking with her again. She has a ton of experience with many types of dogs and you can tell immediately. She was so gentle with our dog that is usually skiddish and so understanding of our very demanding old man English bulldog. She kept our house so clean and went above and beyond everything. She was so understanding of me too and all my worries about leaving the dogs and intricacies that I prefer for them. She is kind and detail oriented and very communicative and sent pictures and messages everyday which put me at so much ease. Thank you Catie!!”
“Shannon took care of our cats and dog for almost a week. She communicated quickly whenever needed and was very accommodating of some exterior work that needed to be done on the house while she was there. We returned home to happy pets and a clean house.”
“Greyson took great care of Marlowe and my home. Most importantly, Marlowe was happy upon my return...meaning he felt safe and cared for during my time away! Thanks Greyson!”
“David is THE BEST !!!! Our animals love him so much and he always spoils them when we go out of town. We are always so relieved to know David is caring for them while we are away . He treasures our pets as much as we do.”
“Kiki was great! She was very quickly responsive to my inquire and had a meet and greet scheduled, that was easy and light conversation. I felt very comfortable with her after our conversation about Gemini and her stay and needs for our puppy. We had tons of communication and photo updates. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog! Would book with Kiki again!”
About: I grew up caring for my family’s cats and dogs, and I currently have two cats of my own. I also spent six months at a dog boarding and training facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. During that time, I gained hands-on experience with everything from dogs who were learning how to walk on a leash for the first time to dogs who struggled with fear, reactivity, and aggression towards people or other dogs. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, trust, and meeting each dog where they are. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for friends and regularly provide in-home stay, caring for multiple pets at a time. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. I’ll treat them like my own and do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I work a flexible full-time hybrid job, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability throughout the week. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and overnight stays, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Lindsay was wonderful with Hendrix. She was reliable caring and very attentive to his needs. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I definitely recommend Lindsey to other parents.”
“Happy to have Elle back house-sitting with Daisy! It was easy to feel super confident leaving Elle with the home, and, Daisy loved it so much she tried to refuse to let Elle leave at the end of their three days together. Elle is a wonderful friend to dogs :)”
“Joshua was so incredible with our two big dogs over a long weekend. He came over to meet the dogs twice before the sit to make sure they felt comfortable with him. They immediately loved him and he made us feel confident they would be on good hands while we were away. He kept us updated and sent pictures the whole time. We know our dogs are a handful (reactive, prey driven), but he never made us feel like they were too much. Cannot thank him enough and are so lucky we found him!”
“Sara is a wonderful Dog Sitter! I highly recommend her services. I returned from a week away to a house that was cleaner than when I left and a happy and content dog. She was very attentive to my sensitive dog’s needs. She also took the time to go to the store for dog food since I miscalculated how much to leave. She is a true professional when it comes to dog & house sitting. I hope to use her again for future vacations.”
“Morgan is such a delightful human! One of my dogs was fresh out of surgery and needing constant supervision and reassurance and my other dog has separation anxiety and is very anxious with new people. My older dog loved her instantly and my younger warmed up to her so quickly! It’s very apparent that she’s a fantastic pet parent and brings that same love and care to any dog she’s watching. I felt very comfortable leaving them with her. I came back later to find them all snuggled up together, my dogs sleeping peacefully on her lap. They were so sad when she left!”
About: I am an Electrician by trade that loves to get outside and be active. If I'm available on Rover it means work is slow and I have extra time for caring for your dog! I grew up around cats but I've been living and working around dogs for 15 years now! I've volunteered as a dog walker at Everett Animal Shelter in the past and have been through dog training classes for my dogs. I have full time availability to give your dog the care it deserves! I have extra support with pup care from my lovely spouse and trusted neighbors/family when necessary. Our home is spacious and we have a large fenced in backyard for your pup to play in when the weather is nice. Crista Ministries is nearby and is great for walks!

Deyaneira did a meet and greet with us prior to her first stay with our dog. When it came time to care for our pet, she was prompt, communicative and was attentive to our dog’s needs. She sent lots of pictures and gave timely updates. We will absolutely request support from Dayaneira in the future.
We’re so happy to be home with Pippa! Alex stayed with her while we were away for an extended trip, and it was such a relief knowing Pippa was able to stay comfortable in her own home. We really appreciated having someone here with her and taking care of her while we were so far away. Pippa was happy to see us when we got home and was doing well. Thank you, Alex, for taking care of our girl while we were gone!
Emma did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and our home over a long weekend. She was really communicative and checked in about some of the dogs specific behavior since it was her first time staying with them. We came home to happy pups and a clean house, will definitely reach out to her to stay with our dogs again!
The best pet sitter we have had off the Rover platform. Communicative, timely, mature, and pets had a great time too! House might have been cleaner when we got home than when we left! Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing someone to help with their fur babies.
Lesli was AMAZING watching my 2 senior pups for over a week while I was on vacation. One of my dogs is afraid of strangers and she warmed up to Lesli instantly. The daily picture updates really helped put me at ease since this was my first time booking a house sitter on Rover. Lesli kept my house very tidy and even put out the trash cans per my request. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again!
Kory was great at house sitting our two bug pups for a week! Kory followed the instructions we provided, sent us daily detailed updates and photos of how the dogs were doing, and left the house clean and tidy for our return. Our dogs seemed very safe and happy with Kory and we would absolutely book them again!
This is our third time having Kristy stay at our home to care for our dog. She is always very communicative, takes care of our house very well and sends plenty of updates. She follows all our instructions and archie is always so happy to see her so we know she takes good care of him every time she comes to stay! Our dog is a high needs pet and takes multiple medications a day (at times not easily) and Kristy always does her best to get him to take the meds, even going out of her way to offer different “pill pocket” options to make sure he takes them on schedule. We feel at ease leaving our dog with Kristy because we know he’s in good hands :)
This was our third time having Jeanne stay with our cat, but the first time we left her for two weeks, and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Jeanne is incredibly attentive and just seems to get it. She notices the little things, asks questions when something doesn't seem right, and sent us pictures and updates every day. Our cat is very demanding and likes a lot of attention and playtime, and Jeanne was great about spending a lot of time with her and keeping her company. More than anything, she understands what it means to leave a pet you love with someone else. Having someone who understands that and keeps us updated without us having to ask made it so much easier to be away. She's also extremely respectful of our home and always leaves everything clean and exactly as she found it. We ended up needing to extend our stay by a night at the last minute, and she was flexible and stayed an extra night. We're really happy we found Jeanne and will absolutely ask her to house sit for our kitty again.

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 Esperance 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 Esperance 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 Esperance 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Esperance. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
