“Rose is amazing!! She took amazing care of my girls and house. I get a little nervous leaving my reactive dog that has special needs but she did AMAZING with her. She gave me updates all the time and left my house spotless. I highly recommend Rose.”
“Margie did great with our two dogs and cat while my husband and I were out of town. We received regular updates and photos and came home to happy pets and a clean space. We will definitely be repeat clients.”
“Danielle was great! She took amazing care of our dog Bean while we were gone for a 10 day trip, and she made us feel very at ease. Lots of photo updates, attentive care, and overall just a great experience.”
“Taylor did a great job taking care of our girl while we were out of town for the weekend. She had great communication and sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her!”
“McKenzie was so great with my dogs. Spent a lot of time with them during the weekend which I know they appreciated in my absence. She communicated with me throughout her stay with my beagles and I really appreciated the updates. My home was just as I left it when I returned. I will absolutely be using her again with my pups!”
“Stephanie was fantastic and the dogs loves her! She was very flexible with schedules and truly did an amazing job taking care of our dogs. We will absolutely have Stephanie again in the future!”
“Nicole was fantastic. She was so communicative and gave great updates throughout the dogsitting stay. She also came a couple days earlier than planned at the last minute bc of a family emergency that we had come up. We really appreciate her flexibility! We’ll definitely keep booking Nicole!”
“This was our second booking with Daniela and again she took great care of Cleo and was communicative, kind, and professional. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Kayla was wonderful with Libby and I sincerely hope to continue booking with her! I especially loved that she spent some time on specific training for a certification we’re working towards!”
“Kristen is amazing with our 3 Siberian Huskies, especially our super senior dog that is 15.5 years old. She takes of the dogs, the house and always keeps us updated. We love having her watch our dogs.”
“Brandon was so amazing with our sweet pup. He was communicative, transparent, and took the best care of Kipper. Highly recommend, and will definitely be using again!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She sent pics of Luna to let us know how she was doing throughout our trip. She even text me to make sure we got home okay after she had already left for the day. Will definitely be using her again in the future. ?”
“Jenna was amazing with Mickey and with last minute coordination on my end. She was clear and communicative with any questions she had and left my home exactly how I left it. Honestly really appreciate Jenna’s flexibility and kindness with Mickey!”
“Sunnie is the best of the best! We really appreciate her communication and attentiveness to our very needy fam. Before leaving for this trip, our 14 year old pup’s eye ulcer hadn’t cleared and required 3x a day eye drops— lucky for us, that was no issue for Sunnie. While we didn’t hit the $1.8B lotto, we definitely hit the jackpot and feel very lucky to have her in their lives. We have 4 pets that all require something extra, like picking up a cat to eat on the counter so the dogs don’t eat her food to adding a smidge of baby food to our boxers food so he feels like life is fair since the eldest gets hand fed to start eating to making sure the cats don’t bring a gift back in the house (they will try!). It’s quite the task and she does it with ease and stellar communication. If you have made it this far, look no further — Sunnie is your gal. Just clear your dates with us first ;) jk jk.”
“Annalese & Garrett were so amazing! Super communicative and responsible. Garrett stayed over with my 2 dogs and he did an awesome job and left my place spotless! Annalese sent me lots of updates and made sure I was always in the loop. Thank you both so much and I will most definitely use you two in the future!”

McKenzie was great! She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated about my Dog. My dog was also a big fan, and he is often indifferent with sitters. He spent his time downstairs enjoying life with Mckenzie, rather than sulking upstairs. Highly recommend! Thanks so much!!!
Miranda is absolutely wonderful. I am so so grateful for her expertise and thoughtfulness. She took such good care of Wyatt, doing topical treatments and giving multiple medications for an infection and concurrent lupus flair-up. She was also so kind and flexible in accommodating my schedule, even changing the linens and making the bed for me, knowing I would be getting in late after driving all day. I could not recommend her more.
Taylor is an exceptional sitter. We are anxious, protective dog parents to a sensitive doodle with special diet requirements. Taylor handled him perfectly over a 4-night stay. She communicated regularly and proactively, sending multiple pictures each day. I felt completely comfortable with our pup in her care and won’t hesitate to use her again!
Becca was great handling our two boys! Both initial meetings may have scared someone who isn’t comfortable with overly excitable dogs away, but Becca was calm and confident with them. On top of having a deaf puppy and jealous older brother, one was also diagnosed with a severe ear infection the day before we left and given an intense medication routine — we came home to a clean home, a cleared ear infection, and two happy pups! Thank you SO much Becca!
Isabel was incredible! We left our two Aussies with her (one being a very high energy pup) for over two weeks while we were traveling out of the country, and we couldn’t have asked for a more kind, caring, and responsible dog sitter. She sent pictures of them daily, which was such a treat, and she left the house in great shape. She provided important updates and was so flexible with our needs. I can’t recommend her enough!
Katy is amazing! She took such good care of our dog Rue while we were out of town. Getting up early every morning to get her a walk before it got too hot, was so attentive to favorite toys and games to play, lots of outside yard time and gave her so much love. She was reliable and incredibly communicative with us sending updates and pictures regularly putting our minds at ease. I cannot recommend her enough!

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 Federal Heights 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 Federal Heights 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 Federal Heights 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
