“Kimberly took amazing care of our 2 dogs while we were away for 3 days. She sent pictures and updates daily. The dogs loved being with her and our house was very clean when we got home. I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from kittens to senior dogs who need a gentler environment. I was a volunteer foster for four years and always focus on making sure pets feel safe and comfortable 💛 I am currently taking online classes to become a nutritionist! I am mostly home studying and would be glad to have pets to take a break with or go for a walk around the park I follow routines closely and pay attention to the needs of each pet like medication or feeding schedules. I hope I can give pets a safe place to stay while their family is away 💛
“Carly was absolutely fantastic! Carly communicated throughout the time I was gone and let me know how my dog was doing. My dog was super well taken care of and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Cynthia is fantastic! She provided house sitting services for our two dogs this past week and she was wonderful. She sent pics each day along with quick updates. The dogs were happy and the house pristine when we returned. We will absolutely rebook her for our future house sitting needs! Thanks again Cynthia”
About: I've fostered dogs for years, but i currently work at a dog boarding/daycare facility so I have a good idea of how to take care of animals properly. I have a full time job at a dog kennel, but I'm very open outside of that. Do to me working semi long hours, it may be a longer time between potty breaks. I have a big yard, however it's not fenced it. I would prefer to take care of the pets in their home rather than my own.
“I was at ease when Ace came to care for my pets while I was away for vacation. I knew my pets were in good hands, there were updates on the visit, and Ace kept my dogs busy with walks and fetch! Especially with my high energic dog. Will definitely have Ace care for my pets again in the future.”
About: I’ve cared for and trained my own dogs, mostly focusing on basic obedience like sit, stay, lay down, speak, crate training, and name recall. I use positive reinforcement and food motivation, and I try to stay consistent with routines so pets understand what’s expected. I’m comfortable with daily care like feeding, walking, potty breaks, and keeping pets on a schedule. I’m patient and focused on making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, so I’m available for house sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During those days, I have plenty of time to stick to your pet’s routine, that means feeding, walks, playtime, etc. Im often available after work as well to provide any small quick services like walks! I follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and routines. I make sure pets get consistent attention, exercise, and companionship so they don’t feel stressed or alone while their owner is away. I also treat the client’s home with respect, keeping it clean and secure, and making sure everything is left as it was when I arrived. My goal is to create a calm, reliable environment where both the pet and the owner feel at ease.
“Shannon did an excellent job house sitting our 3 dogs!!! She appropriately stayed in communication and sent pictures. She was timely, and our house was clean when we got home. Shannon was genuinely invested in the care of our dogs. She gave meds, fed and played outside with them. Our dogs were genuinely happy when we returned home, and it was obvious that they were very well cared for while we were away. I will be booking Shannon for house sitting again in the near future, and I would highly recommend her to anyone else. Thank you Shannon!!”
“Lana was fantastic! With this being the first time I’ve had someone else stay and take care of my baby, I was nervous but she was wonderful! Sent me updates and pictures! I came home to my pup being happy and the house so well taken care of! We’ve already booked our next stay! :)”
“Lizette was absolutely amazing! She watched Harley and Tatum and truly went above and beyond in every way. She accommodated us last minute without hesitation, which was such a blessing for our family. From the moment she walked in, our dogs instantly loved her—you could just tell she has a natural connection with animals. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and made sure they were comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. She even sent us updated photos of them the entire time we were away which was a nice touch. We’ve never had an in-home sitter before, so we were a little nervous at first, but Liz completely put our minds at ease. She was respectful of our home and treated everything with care. Honestly, we feel so grateful that she was placed in our path. She was truly an answer to our prayers, and we would trust her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Liz.”
“Aaliyah was amazing! She took great care of our house and our dog. We have a nervous guy that got freaked out by the thunderstorms but Aaliyah knew just how to make him feel safe and secure. So glad we booked her and would definitely book her again!”
“Corina stayed with my senior dog and cat while I was at a work meeting. My request was a little last minute but she was great to schedule and meet/greet quickly. She took great care of my fur babies and was patient with the senior needs of the dog, who is 17 years old. She has past experience with senior dogs so that was a plus. She responded quickly when I checked on them and sent photos. The house was clean and in order when I got home and the animals were not stressed. I would book Corina again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,332 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fox. 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 Fox 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 Fox 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 Fox 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.

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.
