“Maraya is warm, reliable, and clearly likes kitties! Our cat is crazily attached to us and often acts weird when we return from an absence - not this time! He just acted happy to see us. We would highly recommend Maraya and plan on using her for our next sit.”
About: - Grew up in the country surrounded by dogs, cats, reptiles, chickens, and other farm animals my whole life. - I’ve house sitted for family friends dogs and plants - I highly prioritize communication and safety on both sides I’m very available at the moment as I just graduated. I am happy both to set up a reoccurring service or stay flexible from week to week over the summer. I can’t keep animals in my apartment, but I am physically and mentally capable of the challenges regarding pets like crates, leashes, exercise/play, differences in personalities, and minor discipline if wanted.
“We used Damien for just a short 2 night trial trip and was great. One of our dogs gets very excitable when first meeting someone new, jumping up and not listening. She finally settles down, but takes some firm action at first to get her to listen. Damien was very patient but firm and after the first 20 minutes were buddies the rest of the stay, going back to her chill self. He was prompt, followed all instructions and gave lots of quality time with our dogs. We feel we can plan a longer trip now and feel confident dogs will be in good hands. I recommend Damien with confidence.”
“Rebecca was absolutely fantastic! Such a great sitter! She took care of our Labrador over a weekend for us and took excellent care of the dog and the house. She sent regular updates and photos and was an excellent communicator. Highly recommended!”
“Morgan watched our 3 dogs and 1 cat, which was no easy feat, and she made it look easy. Not only is she trustworthy and kind, the animals loved her and she sent photo updates while we were on vacation. To have no stress while out of town and our babies looked after so well is priceless. She is now our regular sitter :)”
“Julie was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of my Mazie girl. Mazie is a newish rescue and she is nervous at first. Julie has a very calming presence and Mazie seemed comfortable with her right away. She also took great care of my home during her stay. I highly recommend Julie for your pet sitting needs.”
“Suzy stayed at our house while we were gone and took care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She was extremely professional.. Everyone seemed so happy and taken care of when we got back. Highly suggest booking with her! I will be booking with her again in August.”
About: We've been taking care of dogs all our lives, they are family! We whelped 2 litters of puppies from my sweet golden retriever Daisy. We love playing and cuddling with dogs and long walks on our property! Let your dog get a vacation/retreat from city life and enjoy the fresh air on the mountain here! Someone is pretty much here all the time so your dogs get LOTS of attention & walks. If your dog would be more comfortable you can bring along something that smells like home. Also their leash, food, snacks are optional and anything else they prefer. We prefer to board dogs more than one night, that way there is less traffic on our road. Once you drive to the top of the mountain by our homes, please drive super slow to avoid dusting out the neighbors and them being happy, so we can keep boarding dogs! 🐕 thank you SO much! We are home full time so we are here to give your pets the full attention they need! We are excited to have your pet experience life on the mountain with fresh air and long walks! I have a fenced yard, a friendly golden retriever who loves having friends over, and country trails to take the dogs on long walks. Trust us to take care of your pets and allow them to have a retreat away from home.
“Our Family had a fairly long trip and did not want to put our dogs in a different location. Looking on Rover we found Phillip who responded right away. Our trip was through Thanksgiving and that was not a problem for him. He came over to meet our two dogs and they took to him right away. Received updates from him even though for us maybe a little more communication would have been nice but the over-all experience was really good. When we returned back from our trip and he dropped off our house key the dogs were so very excited to see him. Normally when we are gone and come back our dogs tend to not be themselves for a while. We got right back into things with them like we never left. Thanks for taking such good care of our girls.”
“she was amazing!! had a great meet and greet, updated us while we were gone, and left a thank you note as we left a ‘welcome’ note. it was a place having her watching our pet kids and we are looking forward to her next visit with us :)”
“Emma was absolutely amazing. She took great care of my little Stormi. She sent updates with pictures and did everything I asked. She was very accommodating with my crazy schedule. And was easy to talk to about my needs. I will be using her for now on. Thank you!”
“Rachel was amazing. We contacted her day of so it was pretty short notice and she made herself available and was on time. She was kind and patient and caring. Otis adored her. She has a lot of experience and knowledge. I felt totally comfortable with her in our home and would absolutely ask her to dog sit for us again. Ty Rachel!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I always strive to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a Golden Retriever and a German Shepherd mix, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and high-energy dogs. I’ve also administered medications to my own dogs when needed and always follow care instructions carefully. Beyond caring for my own pets, I’ve looked after many friends’ and family members’ dogs while they were away. I also rescued one of my own dogs, which gave me experience helping an adult dog adjust to a new home, build confidence, and replace unwanted habits with positive behaviors through patience and consistent training. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your dog prefers a relaxing walk or an active adventure, I’ll tailor their care to their individual needs while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available most days for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. If I’m providing house sitting, I just ask for about two hours each day to care for and exercise my own dogs while my husband is at work. Outside of that, I’m committed to following your pet’s normal routine and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and any special instructions so they receive the care they’re used to. Whether we’re out on a walk or spending time at home, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that lightly. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or house sitting, I’ll provide attentive, compassionate care while doing my best to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I’d also be happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I really appreciate all the effort and care put into my animals! Like most pet owners, I fret when I'm away. Monique was communicative and friendly, always responding quickly and happy to send a pic.”
“Carla was quick to respond and took great care of my dog when my other sitter backed out at the last minute. She sent pictures and updates and I could not have been happier with the service she provided.”
“Claire was pleasant to work with and asked excellent questions when she met our three labs. Our dogs loved her and we enjoyed seeing Claire’s updates and pictures. Most of all, it was so nice to come back to the house just the way I left it, ready for holidays guests!”
“I am a Rover employee. Macie is AMAZING!!! She worked with me and my anxieties as well as my cats. My cats are obsessed with her and I’m so so glad I found her! I will absolutely be booking again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 745 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Freeman. 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 Freeman 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 Freeman 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 Freeman 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.
