“Crystal was fantastic with our Tuco and he was so happy in his update pictures. This was our first time leaving him in the care of someone else and Crystal was perfect. We can tell Tuco already misses his friends and we will absolutely book Crystal again!”
“Ana is the best! I feel 100% confident when we leave our dog Abbey with her. She is super conscientious and really understands dog behavior. Ana stayed with our dog at our house. She took excellent care of our dog and house and even watered our plants. She communicated very well before our booking and sent us updates and photos while she was sitting for our dog.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of our dogs and our home while we were away. From the very beginning, her communication was wonderful. She checked in with us every day and sent pictures and videos of the dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Being able to see that they were happy, comfortable, and being well cared for allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about what was happening at home. She didn’t just make sure their basic needs were met—she genuinely cared for them and treated them like they were her own. That meant so much to us, especially since leaving your pets behind can be one of the hardest parts of going on vacation. She also took wonderful care of our house and treated it as if it were her own. We came home to happy dogs and a well-cared-for home, which was the perfect ending to our trip. She is dependable, communicative, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. Knowing our dogs and our home were in such good hands was priceless. We would absolutely trust her to care for them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can feel completely comfortable leaving their pets and home with!”

About: The holidays are coming up which means family reunions and events. What is better than giving your cats the care they deserve without having them leave the comfort of home? You won’t have to worry with me there to take care of them! I have grown up around cats and started to learn to care for them at a young age. I have 17 years of experience caring for my family’s 3 cats and about 5 of those years made me a pro at administering medicines. I have experience with severely sick cats, including using a feeding tube to administer food, water, and medicines on a strict schedule. I also have experience with administering intravenous fluids and injecting insulin. I am currently working a full time remote job. I will be available throughout the week for house sitting. For drop ins, I’m available on weekdays during morning and evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. I will make sure that I enter and leave your house securely. I will double check all doors are locked and alarms are on before I leave! I will leave your house with no pet mess or accidents. I will make sure everything is taken care of for you so you don't have to worry about your home! I will make sure that all litter bags and garbage will be taken out before I leave. I will also make sure to wash pet food and water bowls before leaving.
About: I grew up caring for my family’s cats and dogs, and I currently have two cats of my own. I also spent six months at a dog boarding and training facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. During that time, I gained hands-on experience with everything from dogs who were learning how to walk on a leash for the first time to dogs who struggled with fear, reactivity, and aggression towards people or other dogs. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, trust, and meeting each dog where they are. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for friends and regularly provide in-home stay, caring for multiple pets at a time. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. I’ll treat them like my own and do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I work a flexible full-time hybrid job, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability throughout the week. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and overnight stays, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Always a pleasure having Carlynn stay at our home. She is respectful, communicative and takes great care of our fur babies. She even helped care for our small bird. She left our home clean and well cared for. We hope to book her again in the future!”
“Kristy was phenomenal!! My dog, Mochi, was clearly very well taken care of, along with my house. Kristy provided multiple updates throughout the day, was very thorough in her questions about care, and was always responsive. Mochi can be quite reactive to other dogs and Kristy did a great job managing this and letting him have fun on walks. It was truly so nice to have peace of mind during my time away - including over 4th of July! Will be booking again for sure and would highly recommend : )”
“Our other sitter had to cancel last minute. It was 10 o’clock and Heather jumped on the booking. Came over and took the great care of our pets. She sent pictures everyday and made sure we were updated daily. 11 out of 10.”
About: Ive had several dogs a Siberean Husky and a Black Lab and enjoyed walking them. I've taken care of protective dogs such as Briards Australian Shepard's and Blue Heelers for family, friends and coworkers whos dogs I had previously never met. Should your pupper need a longer walk I can assist as I regularly walk over 20-35 miles a day. I am available from 5am to 11am over the weekend from Friday in to Tuesday and i am available all day on Wednesdays and Thursdays. At this time due to construction and remodeling work around the house I am unable to board and pets for their safety but With my large yard that may be a option in the future.
“Jessica was exceptional! Even with it being a last minute booking, Jessica did all the things a professional would do. She set up a meet and greet, made the right questions and made quickly managed my puppy’s energy. Jessica was super prompt, respectful of our home and kind with our baby.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fobes Hill
Sophia did a great job caring for our two dogs while we were away! They seemed very relaxed around her so I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. One of our dogs is older and has medication and special dietary needs that Sophia was able to manage. Her communication before and during our trip was excellent. She left our home in great shape too. I would absolutely rebook and recommend Sophia as a sitter!

Arielle is honestly one of the best dog sitters I have ever had. If I can give a million starts I honestly would! Communication 10/10 Photos with pups 10/10 On time 10/10 Just everything 10/10. I had a trip with limited service through Yellowstone and I didn’t worry once if everything was okay. She is truly amazing and 100% book her again.
Nellie was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of our little munchkins! She had great attention to detail with our little ones. Specifically, one of our puppies has a history of seizures and requires medication multiple times a day. Nellie also sent pictures and updates on how they were all doing which was comforting given it was one of our longest trips away from home.
Alison and Cassidy were beyond amazing and the best sitters I’ve used from Rover yet. You can tell Alison truly cares so much about what she does and I never felt anxiety during my trip away from my babies. She not only took great care of my fur babies, but I came back to my garden so alive and beautiful. Our home was cleaner than we had left it and we are just so impressed with everything Alison did for us while we were away. We hope we can book her again for all our future trips!
Willow was communicative, on time, and followed instructions for my three cats. Which included medication for one of them. They provided pictures and updates as well. I didn’t feel worried at all while I was gone which is always a great feeling when you have pets.
Ken is our nervous chihuahua Dandy's best buddy! Even though Dandy hates it when I leave on a trip, I always come back to a calm and happy dog who I know has had a great time. Ken goes above and beyond to take great care of Dandy, and I never have to worry while I'm gone. (And get adorable pictures that show he's enjoying his own vacation with Ken!) I've booked Ken several times, and he's my go to any time I have to travel!
I think we were Grace's first customer on Rover and she did a great job housesitting and taking care of our boys. She sent updates and photos each day and was very good about communicating with us if she had to leave the house. We will be using her 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 Fobes Hill 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 Fobes Hill 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 Fobes Hill 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.
