“Shauna was great with the dogs. They were not stressed at all when we got home. It’s like we never left. Shauna was great with communication with us getting this set up as well as while we were gone thank you so much Shauna.”
“Dalene is so incredible and makes me feel good about leaving my dogs with her. It’s been very difficult to find a good sitter over the years and right away I felt so comfortable with leaving my dogs with her. She is always updating me throughout the day and sending lots of pictures! She also leaves my house looking just as clean as when she arrived! Highly recommend her”
“Christina’s the best dog-sitter you could ever ask for; totally professional and responsible, but also an incredibly sweet and fun companion for our pup! Can’t recommend highly enough, she’s our go-to gal for every trip we’ll take in the future.”
About: I have cared for friends' and neighbors' pets for years. I have nearly 10 years' experience as a veterinary technician and I have had multiple pets of my own for decades. I have experience with dogs (all breeds), cats, pocket pets (especially pet rats), birds, aquatic, reptile (except snakes). I also volunteer for Miss Winkles Pet Adoption Center handling various dogs and attending to their various needs and comfort levels. I also volunteer with horses and have a good understanding of horse care and communication. I am currently a stay at home mom of a teen, so I have some extra free time since my child no longer needs constant caretaking. I volunteer for Miss Winkles Pet Adoption and Heart of the Horse Therapy Ranch regularly. I am casually looking for part-time work that fits my skills. I would love to help care for your pets. I will care for your pets in your home just as you would and follow every preference you may have. I also have experience medicating cats, dogs, and rodents via oral medication or injections. I understand the importance of their routine and feeding guidelines. I will uphold your values with the greatest of care.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15, but my love for animals started long before that. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and they truly have a special place in my heart. Over the years I’ve pet sat for families and friends, and through their recommendations, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for pets of people. I hadn’t previously met. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home and someone else’s care so I always treat every pet like they’re my own-with lots of love, patience and care.🐾 My availability is all day Saturday & Sunday + select weekday evenings. Message me for availability! I am currently working part time and a full-time student, so Friday-Sunday works the best for me right now with some evening availably:) I want your pets to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away, which is why I’m happy to care for them right in their own home. I will follow their normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and always treat your home with care and respect. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates while you’re gone!!🐾
“Anna is INCREDIBLE. Always reliable, honest, and trustworthy with my babies. She's quick to respond, easy to book, and GREAT with my two small dogs. I will be using her services for the foreseeable future!”
“Eleonora did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and 2 cats in our home. She walked our dog every day and kept us posted throughout the visit with messages and pics of our fur kids. She is very reliable and we would definitely book her again!”
“Marissa was so helpful and reliable during our vacation. She watched our home and dog and provided thorough communication and daily photo updates. I would recommend her for your dog and house sittings.”
“Emily was great! She treated my Tj like her own. I felt very comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. Emily's communication was great and she sent photos of my dog regularly.”
“Kaitlyn took great care of our two dog and cat and kept us super informed on what they were all up to while we were away. Made our trip that much more stress-free!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive. Our cats are typically very anxious and don’t warm up to new people easily, but she was incredibly patient and gentle with them. By the end of our trip, they were comfortable and even snuggly with her, which really says a lot. She treats your pets like her own and consistently goes above and beyond what’s asked. As anxious pet parents, it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She also provided regular, detailed updates, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. We’re so grateful for the care she gave our pets and will definitely be using her again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets, understand their quirks, and keep you sane while you’re away—she’s it. 10/10, no notes.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful dog sitting for my two dogs. Both of my dogs warmed up to her very quickly and She treated my dogs just as they were her own. She sent me updates and let me know how the dogs were doing.”
“Leaving our fur babies for the first time - Kate made it a breeze. Came and met them, and our home ahead of the scheduled stay. Everything we asked was done to perfection - with lots of little bonuses. We have an elderly dog - needed meds, a frisky young dog - needed lots of attention, and a middle age pup - and they can be a handful. She sent pictures and up dates day and evening. Our pups were always looking happy, and well cared for. Made our trip so much more enjoyable - knowing they were i such good hands. Would highly reccommend Kate for any and all pet related jobs - she is awesome!”
“Asianna was great! She was prompt, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. He's shy but she did a wonderful job of getting to know him. I will definitely be asking Asianna back in the future!”
“Samuel was absolutely fantastic. Very quick with communications and follow up. Communications were consistent and informative. Momo was very happy spending time with Samuel and we would definitely book again. Highly recommend!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Friant
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 500 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Friant. 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 Friant 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 Friant 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 Friant 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Friant. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
