“Jeanne was OUTSTANDING with our boy! We had a meeting and greet prior to the sitting to discuss itinerary for the stay. Jeanne did everything she said and went above and beyond on communication with texts and pictures. Knowing Jon was in good hands took a ton of stress out of our trip. Jeanne is the best, and will definitely call her again the next time we have to go out of town!”
“Abigail was an awesome pet sitter while watching our pups. She kept up us updated and sent photo's. She explained everything that went on and you can tell the Dogs just adored her. I would use her again for any pet needs.”
About: Ive taken care of all types of animals since high school and have became well known for such great care of my communities pets and homes. Including horses, goats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, rabbits and plants. Regardless of the animal I always go over any expectations of the owners to take care. Pets truly are family and it is super hard leaving them behind, which is why I always care for any animal just as I would my own. (Aka spoiled to the 9’s) which is why house sitting and pet care has become one of my favorite things to do. I recently graduated college and have some free time while I’m on break. Majority of my days are free of responsibilities. I already love being active and walking my own dog and would love to have an additional pet to tag along! I have a decent sized open yard tucked behind my house far from the street. Plenty of space for dogs to play! Both my neighbors have fences around their homes separating the yards. I have a miniature daschund who enjoys the company other dogs, but separate spaces can be accommodated easily if they prefer to be alone.
About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life, I would love to spend time with yours! I treat every dog I see like they’re my little baby even if I just ask their owner to love on them! I’d love an opportunity to help you and be trusted with your fur baby :) I am currently working very part time, I have too much time on my hands so I would love to keep your baby company! Or them keep me company…😂. I have 3 dogs of my own and a big fenced in yard, I live right by a school with a track and lots of grass! My dogs in my home are the babies, we treat them how we would a child and nothing less! I have a big fenced in yard with even more grass just across the street for your dog to release some energy in!
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. They’re my soul animal for sure! I have a fur baby named Bear he’s 10 and the best dog in the whole world! I’ve trained many of my family’s pets and currently working with my brothers 8 month old puppy now. I will always have patience with dogs and training. I will always have a passion and love for training and dogs forever and having this as an option is a dream. I never heard of Rover before so this is a god send! 😇 Im currently an auntie to 3 fur babies at home and would like to expand my love and time for other pet parents that need the help with their pets as well. I don’t have a schedule at the moment so Monday-Friday from 8am-8pm I can swing in or be a dog sitter. Fri and Saturday I can do overnight if needed. I wouldn’t be able to care for pets in my own home, my house has 4 dogs with fenced in yard but just don’t have the room for it or I would have that already started for sure, one day when I get property!

We booked Cheynne to house sit for us while we were on a short trip. This was our first time using Rover & we could not be happier. Cheynne took excellent care of our fur babies & our house was left clean & the same as we left it. She was very repsosive with texts & we would highly recommend Cheyenne for her services to anyone. We will most definitely use her services again in the future!

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 Filer 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 Filer 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 Filer 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.
