About: I’ve worked with and owned many different breeds of dogs, along with cats and reptiles etc. I love all animals and have helped with a family member’s boarding facility over the past few years. As I currently have a work from home job, I’m easily able to care for and play with all of the furry babies as they need it! I have a fenced in yard with a lock, and make sure to sure keep all things put away that your four legged baby might not need to have access to.
About: I have around 8 years of pet sitting experience and have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, and more! My family has 5 dogs of various sizes and breeds, so I am comfortable with dogs of any kind. I also grew up with four cats and have around 5 years of cat sitting experience. I am a college student home for the summer, and I’m currently only working part time - this leaves me with lots of available time for your pets! I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and dispositions. I am comfortable administering medication, and I have experience working with anxious pups as well as some mildly aggressive dogs. I am also able to provide references upon request! I only work part time and can provide overnight care in your house! I am willing to make as many visits to your pet as you are comfortable with. While I cannot offer boarding services in my home, I am able to provide whatever care you would like in your pet’s normal environment! I am a punctual and dedicated worker with experience caring for all sorts of animals.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for over 3 years and genuinely love being around animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable with pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. I’m currently in college working toward my teaching degree, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and overnight care on most weekdays and weekends. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and happy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and any special needs to make sure pets feel secure and stress-free. I’m very patient and gentle with animals and will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Sherry was great! Very responsive, asked good questions, and answered promptly. Took good care of our two high-energy pups! Our home was neat and tidy, just like we left it. No problems or concerns. She was great to work with! Will use her again next time we’re headed out of town!”
“Tammy is our favorite go to person!! My 3 babies loves when she comes and enjoys when she stays with them. She’s flexible and helps this momma out in a jam. Being with the airline I need someone flexible.”
“Professional, reliable, and clearly loves dogs- even nervous little Yorkies who bark a lot :) I returned from vacation to find my house cleaner than I left it. Highly recommend!”
“Jada was amazing with our three fur babies while staying in our home. This was the first time in a long time that we trusted someone outside of family or friends, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. She was fantastic with our dogs, kept us updated with texts, and was always responsive to our messages. When we returned home, our dogs were happy, and their routines remained unchanged. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Aiden was a great help watching Mickie when I went on vacation. My flight home got delayed 2 days due to weather and he was able to extend his stay and take care of her until I got back.”
“Shephard took good care of my dog while I was out of town. She also left my home in good clean condition. She even replaced a can opener that wasn't working. I would definitely reccomend her services and use her again in the future.”
“Jasmine took such good care of our two cats! She was referred to us when we learned about a last-minute trip we needed to take over the weekend, and we were so glad that Jasmine was available to cat sit in our home while we were away. The kitties seemed as happy as always when we returned, so we know Jasmine took great care of them, including food, play, and outside time. Jasmine also checked-in with us when she had questions, and we were so glad for that. Thank you, Jasmine!”
“This was very pleasant experience. I loved getting pictures and knowing she was well taken care of. Andrea took her for walks and gave her allergy meds. I definitely will book her again for house sitting.”
“Stacy took great care of my fur baby! She sent me daily updates and pictures of him, and made sure to spend so much time giving him attention. This was my first time leaving Bentley, and I felt so comfortable leaving him in such great hands! She even took him on extra walks, and I couldn’t be more grateful :)”
About: I will make sure your fur children are loved! I have 4 pets of my own, 2 dogs and 2 cats! I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving basic care like brushing and administering simple medications if needed. I’m also familiar with different pet personalities—some more energetic or anxious—and I adjust my approach based on their needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication with owners, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away! 😊 I am a school counselor for an online school, I work from home. So I am pretty flexible! I can work around my schedule to spend time with your fur children! Safety is #1 priority! I will always make sure to follow any guidelines you give me, and make sure your fur children are always safe!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fetzer
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fetzer on Rover is $92.99 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,518 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fetzer. 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 Fetzer 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 Fetzer 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 Fetzer 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 Fetzer. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
