“June was very communicative and did a wonderful job with our fur babies! We received lots of pictures and our pup enjoyed lots of play time. We are thankful that we had her help on vacation. :)”
“Heather was absolutely amazing with our three pitbulls. From the start she was so responsive and provided so many updates which made us feel completely at ease. Our dogs loved her, and it meant everything to know they were happy, safe, and cared for while we were away. She took great care of our home too, and we came back to everything perfect. We’re truly grateful for Heather and will 100% be booking with her again!”

About: Life is Good with pets! I have been providing professional pet care services for dogs for over 5 years. I have always had different dogs in my life from childhood to adulthood. I’ve seen how happy my own pet is from taking him on regular walks and I am excited to provide this same experience for other pets. I have a large, fenced yard in a semi-rural neighborhood, and I enjoy taking dogs on nice long walks. Pets are allowed on furniture to snuggle and I am also happy to crate train pets, if preferred. I am currently working from home, so I have most of my time to give attention and love to your pet. I am happy to provide these services at all times. I have plenty space and a fenced yard for your pet to play or simple go on potty breaks, if needed. The services requested will be depending on the customers offer :)

“Julia is wonderful with our cat! We always know he is in good hands. When we come home, it's like we never left. Julia always keeps us up to date with photos and videos which is really nice when we're missing him. Thanks so much!”
“I want to be greedy and keep Kourtney a secret…But also go on and on about how amazing she is! This was our first time leaving the girls with someone and we could not have asked for anyone better. She was timely, communicative, and most importantly so kind to our baby dogs (and our home)! You will not regret having her help care for your pups. If we could give 1,000 stars we would!”

“Megan did outstanding her first time with Crosby and Luna! We were in contact daily and she made sure that everything went smoothly which is always a concern for me since Luna is a rescue still figuring things out.

About: I have had animals my entire life! 3 dogs and 5 fish. I walk my 2 very friendly loving dogs through the mountains or my neighborhood every night and I love for yours to join us! I’m also experienced in house sitting as I have done this for many of family friends. As well as senior care, due to my full time job at Home Helpers Home Care. I work full time Monday- Friday 9am-5pm. My weekends, early mornings, and evening are completely free! Early morning or right after work is when I walk my two dogs either in the morning or when I get home from work. In my own home I find patience is the key to working with dogs. The newest addition to my family is a rescue from a hoarding case and it has taken some time to help him heal from the trauma he has faced. With love, patience, and guidance he has had an amazing recovery and adapted so well to being with us! In the three years he has been with us all of his injuries, cuts, and bruises have healed. His coat is thick, full, and shiny. He is also no longer scared to eat or be around other animals and people.
“Emily was a perfect fit for my liberty! She sent me lots of photos!! When I arrived home Liberty was very happy to see us, but after the excitement of her greeting us she was running around the house looking for Emily! I will use Emily again and recommend her to anyone who wants there pets to receive lots of love ❤️”
About: I’m the person who sees an animal and immediately greets them with the warmth of an old friend. I’ve felt a bond and (to the reluctance of my parents) an un spoken duty to protect and care for animals in need since childhood. At our house we had pets of all sizes and species and dogs were considered a part of the family. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets with the same high standard of care and attention that I would want for my own. I am currently working from home and my schedule grants me the flexibility to accommodate last minute bookings. Feel free to reach out if you’re in a bind! I make house calls for check-ins/potty breaks ect. and I’m happy to include a walk to give your fur babe some much needed outdoor time while you’re away.
“Kiana was absolutely awesome with my pups! She was very affectionate and attentive towards them. Her communication with me was amazing and I felt so safe to leave my babies with her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Ganotown 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 Ganotown 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 Ganotown 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
