“Michael was calm and kind with our sensitive dog. He gained her trust quickly and took good care of her. Michael left our house clean. We look forward to having him stay on our next trip.”
“Elizabeth was the perfect companion for my dog while I was away for the weekend. She kept me well updated, asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s routines, and left the house decidedly better than she found it at the end of her pet sitting stay. She went truly above and beyond, and I came home to a happy, relaxed dog!”
“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. Megan went above and beyond for our pups and we are so grateful to her for showering our pups with love while we were away. Great communication, left the house spotless, and sent pictures every day. We will definitely contact her again for any future needs.”
“Kelsie took great care of our home and our German Shepherd, Tigger, while we were out of town for 6 days. We will be booking her again for sure. Tigger can’t wait for us to go on Vacation again!”
“Lisa took excellent care of our dog Baxter in our home while we we're gone for eleven days. We were worried about leaving him for so long, but there was no need to worry as Lisa did a great job. She sent detailed updates and photos. When we got home, Baxter was calm and happy, and our house was in great shape as well. Lisa is awesome and we would definitely hire her again.”
“Yvette was amazing with Penelope! Penelope is 16 and she can be picky with people, and she loved Yvette. Yvette was kind and gentle with her. We will be having Yvette come again!”
“Hannah is great! We love her! She stayed with my pup during the snow storm with NO power in the house. She cuddled with my girl and kept them both warm through the night with no complaints! She is a real trooper🩵”
“Brieanna did a wonderful job taking care of our pets, including 2 cats and a large fish tank. As a house sitter, she kept our home in good order and was great about sending us updates daily so we knew our fur babies were being well taken care of. It made it much easier to enjoy our vacation knowing everything at home was in good hands. She’ll be our first choice for the next trip we plan!”
“Andrea is amazing! She went above and beyond taking care of our pups and home. She took them on walks, spent quality time with them, kept us very well updated and even cleaned up our house. We and the pups will be excited to have her back for our next trip!”
“Sarah was a wonderful commentator and prompt with response. She took great care of our favorite family member and was a very loving provider while we were away. She sent pictures and kept us informed. I definitely recommend her to look after your pet.”
“Alicia was awesome. We booked a weekend trip about a week in advance & Alicia made sure to make my booking work. She was very attentive to all my animals and I came back to a clean home with happy pets. Thank you very much for the hard work because I know multiple pets aren’t easy! I would recommend and I will be rebooking with her next trip!”
“Stephanie was very communicative and took good care of my pup and house. The place was clean upon my return and my dog seemed to be very happy spending time with Stephanie. Highly recommend”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve always grown up with them and currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats I take care of as well! I’m currently unemployed so I have a lot of time on my hands, I’m looking for mainly drop by visits but I’m always open to boarding! I always make sure to check on my pets every hour or so to make sure they’re doing okay and take them out if needed or check their water. I have a fenced in yard with tons of space for them to run around in!
“Simon was awesome with my dog Rocky! I received a bunch of photos of them having fun & on lil adventures, while I was away on a backpacking trip. Would 10/10 recommend.”
“Hailey was a great sitter for my dog. Throughout the process, she was responsive and communicative. Hailey visited our home a few days earlier to do a meet and greet. On the day of care, she came to our home and spent many hours with our dog; took her on a walk, played with her, fed her, let her get all zoomies out, and treated her exceptionally well. Hailey shared photos and gave us updates throughout the day. I was really impressed with the care and consideration Hailey showed, and would recommend her to anyone looking for her services.”
“We could not have asked for better care. It was immediately clear that Russ was attentive to all our pets' needs, and he communicated every step of the way with such thoughtfulness about the details that it's obvious he's not only an animal lover but an all-around compassionate person. We had such a tall order to fill — in particular, it included care for a frail senior dog who required constant supervision over long days. It was such a comfort to know he was in Russ's calm, capable hands, ready for whatever snags came along. This was Russ's first booking but he is clearly a ready professional.”
“Jennifer and Champ we amazing staycation friends for my pup, Scout! He was so happy and well cared for while I was gone, and Jennifer's proactive communication and pictures of Scout really helped reassure me that he was in great hands! We can't wait to invite them back next time I need puppy care :D”
About: What makes my pet care different is the personal touch I bring to every visit. I don't just care for your pets-I make sure you feel connected to them while you're away. I love capturing their personalities through fun photos and sending you daily updates so you never miss a tail wag, silly pose, or happy moment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family is safe, loved, and having a great time, while giving your pets the attention, play, and care they deserve. As a full-time online student, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize caring for pets throughout the week. I'm available during weekdays for walks, drop-ins, and playtime, and I also offer overnight care for families who need extra support. Because my classes are online, I can easily adjust my time to fit your pet's routine, ensuring they get consistent attention, companionship, and care whenever you need it. I am a trustworthy sitter with four years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, understand that every animal has unique needs and I adapt my care to fit their routine, personality, and comfort. My reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals mean you can feel confident knowing your pet is in safe, caring hands. With a flexible schedule, I make sure your pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve-just as if they were my own.

Amazing experience with Noelle. When we got home from our concert our puppy was sound asleep. He's so hyperactive and requires a lot of stimulation. We know Noelle gave him plenty since he was so pooped out. 100% will be using her again for any future pet care!!
First experience doing in-home dog sitting with Madi was a positive one. My girls, Hazel and Birdie, seemed particularly comfortable with her. She was communicative and I appreciated the regular updates. When I returned, the house was in great shape and the dogs clearly had a good time with Madi. Hope to rebook.
As always, Todd was incredible. He is excellent at communicating. We received updates and pictures every day. Our cat and dog received the best care and got all of the attention, love, and fun that we had wanted for them. We will ALWAYS choose Todd to take care of our little fur babies.
Ashley did an amazing job watching my dog for the weekend! She came over for a meet and greet and made sure she understood exactly what my dog needs. She followed all my directions for care and gave me detailed updates. I came home to a clean and tidy home and a happy pet! I would definitely recommend Ashley and book her again!
Halcyon did a great job caring for our cat and elderly dog. She was flexible in managing last minute changes to our dog’s medication regimen as well as contractors being at our house working on the exterior while we were away. She kept all my many plants alive inside and outside, provided regular updates, and sent plenty of cute photos. The house was spotless upon our return, and both pets were happy and relaxed.

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 Fircrest 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 Fircrest 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Fircrest 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.
