“Kali is amazing! Our dogs get so excited to see her, and settle right into her presence as soon as she arrives. She's a great communicator and very punctual. Will continue to book!”
“Gina was an excellent pet sitter, I can’t rave about her enough!! She went out of her way to accommodate me and my husband. I was due to deliver my baby within a few weeks when I had reached out to her. She was very flexible and was able to work with us given I had to be induced earlier than expected and had to stay in the hospital more days than expected. She took great care of our 3 boys- a Great Dane and 2 Lhasa apso’s. She was able to work with their special needs and administer oral and eye medications to one of them.”
About: I've had animals in my life since birth, literally. My mom is a veterinarian and raised me to be just like her. It worked 😅 I am an aspiring veterinarian with a lifetime of experience when it comes to caring for the furry, scaly, aquatic, or just different members of the family! I have worked as a vet tech, so if your pet needs any sort of medication, I am highly qualified for medical administration as well. I am a full-time master's student at OSU. Most of my "free time" centers around the weekends but I do have more limited availability during the week as well. No matter where I am, I vow to provide any pet with the utmost amount of care. I specialize in belly rubs, butt scratches, and laser pointers. Also, if you want your pet's nails trimmed or anal glands expressed, I can do that too 😂
“This was my first time having someone house sit. I was nervous but after meeting Nita and seeing how the dogs loved her first sight put my mind at ease. I think they got a little spoiled with the food topper she made them, now they expect me to do it (lol). She kept me updated by sending me pics and videos. I was able to go enjoy my birthday knowing that my babies were taking care of. I would most definitely recommend Ms. Nita and use her again in the future.”
“Azia was great with our Australian Shepherd! She was well cared for and obviously given lots of attention. Azia also communicated with us regularly about how our pup was doing. We’d love to have her watch Millie again!”
“My quick review is Cidell was prompt, knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy with house sitting my dog - I highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs! Now here’s the details: Cidell house sit my Rott boxer mix for 3 nights. Tank, my dog, was extra stressed due to my son recently moving out of the house and then the fact that he had never stayed with a stranger that long. Cidell was amazing- he kept me updated on Tanks well being, and by day 3 Tank was more calm and relaxed then when Cidell first arrived. I felt assured Tank was in good hands and Cidell was great at keeping him to his daily routine. It was also nice coming home and seeing the house in the exact same condition as when I left. I don’t normally leave reviews, but I am so impressed with the professional and caring manner that he dealt with Tank, that I wanted to let people know Cidell is your guy if he is available.”
“Dakota stayed at our house with our pups. He communicated well and followed all instructions. We came back home to the house in perfect condition. Thank you for taking care of our pups! Definitely recommend.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats that I adored and cared for. Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for friends’ pets whenever they needed a helping hand. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a former client’s dog for four years before she passed away. That experience taught me just how important patience, consistency, companionship, and treating every pet like family truly are. I understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I’m committed to providing loving, attentive care while giving pet parents peace of mind. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend quality time caring for your pets. 🐾 I’m available after 6 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and I’m happy to keep your pets company and give them lots of love and attention until you’re home. I’m also available for overnight boarding on weekends.

I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, playtime, walks, cuddles, and any other care they need. My goal is to give your pets plenty of love and attention while keeping them happy, comfortable, and feeling at ease while you’re away.
“This was our first experience with a professional Pet/house sitter. Clover could not have been a more perfect fit. My pups Timi and Buster took to her right away. My daughter’s kitty Teddy came bouncing out along with his shy sister Poppy. She was totally at ease answering all our questions. On the day of our departure for our European holiday my pups were so happy to see her, which made our departure so easy. During her stay she captured some of the most adorable pictures of our four fur babies. Poppy who has always been difficult to capture in a good pose was all of a sudden posing for Clover. Upon our return she stayed long enough to walk Timi and Buster as well as feeding everyone. Our flight was delayed. We got home to a beautifully kept house. Clover thank you so much you truly made our experience perfect. We knew our fur babies were in good hands. Karen & Christi”
“We decided to use Rover for our little one 'baby" because we were heading out on a 7 day cruise and needed a sitter for 9 days. We found Britney on Rover and she absolutely over exceeded our expectations! From the first day we did the meet and greet, she was so caring, loving, respectful and professional! As we flew to and from Orlando and cruised for 7 days, Britney never missed a beat. Britney actually drove all the way from work in Downtown Dallas to give our "baby" her 1pm snack! She kept everything clean, followed all the rules and even worked from home some days to just keep "baby" company. She sent us pics and reports daily. We felt super comfortable leaving Britney in our home the entire time. We truly found a God sent dog sitter and also just a really warm and wonderful person. We will be using her services again!”
About: I have taken care of my moms friends dogs and cats since 7. Friends and family relied on me for taking care of their pets. I’m a part time student.

“This was a great experience. I feel our Bumpus was well cared for and content upon our return. Happy dog and happy dog mom. Our house was neat and our property was respected. GREAT communication and lots of pics.”
About: Hello, I am so excited to have a new friend in your pet!!! My name is April and I love cats and dogs but I don't have any of my own. I love dog sitting and walking them too. I'm working from home at the moment and getting out to walk a dog is just what I need to keep me sane. I have a few families that I sit for on the regular and the dogs have become like friends. My schedule is pretty flexible so if you have any questions let me know. I have my own vehicle and do not work my regular jobs on the weekdays so this works out perfect for me. Can't wait to meet you and your fur babies and cats.

“Elizabeth was such a godsend! She took great care of our two pugs! She provided several pictures of our pugs while we were away. I find her to be reliable and very good at communicating, will book again! Thank you, Elizabeth!”
About: I absolutely love animals!! I had a Schnauzer named Loki years ago. I decided I wouldn’t have another puppy, but I’ve been having a blast watching other people’s dogs. It’s kind of like a fun uncle type of situation I’ve been thriving on lately. I have tons of experience watching and handling animals. Since my youth, I’ve been in love with nature. I even became an Eagle Scout! I’m passionate about animals and all life in general. I even thought about becoming a vegan, but that’s another topic of discussion… I’m a yoga instructor, so my schedule is very flexible. My free time is spent running, exercising, and studying. You can find me either outdoors or at a coffee shop! I am very communicative and attentive, so you can expect multiple text messages with updates on how your puppy is doing. Expect mini photo shoots!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,802 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ferris. 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 Ferris 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 Ferris 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 Ferris 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.
