“Repeat customer and will continue to be! Tony is incredible in taking care of our dog and home - he’s in constant communication, providing updates and photos, and with Tony, we always know we are in great hands. He’s caring, kind, compassionate, and we appreciate him so much for all he does for our family!”
“Elaine is SO WONDERFUL! I can’t recommend her enough. This was our first trip using Rover and we were very nervous about leaving our precious doggies under a stranger’s care, but when Elaine came for a meet & greet a few days before we left, it was clear she was no stranger… she was Auntie Elaine immediately! Roxy and Sadie were instant fans. Our chihuahua Maxine wasn’t as sure (chihuahuas, you know?), but after we left, Maxine decided she liked Auntie Elaine too. Elaine sent us photos and reports every day, which were a delight to read. We hadn’t ever been away from our babies for this long, so the updates were so helpful. Roxy, our senior dog, developed a balance issue (not anything related to Elaine, just senior dog stuff) and Elaine took her to our vet and got her checked out, updating us the whole time. (Roxy’s fine, just a little tilty) Definitely the right call to get her checked out! I can’t recommend Auntie Elaine highly enough. Three dogs and two humans agree! ?”
“Tigh helped us out so much by adding these 2 extra days with Nico! He is a fantastic guy and so great with Nico. Loved seeing our pup so happy and healthy when we returned from our trip!”
“Chris is the best! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing both our pups and our home were in very good hands. Chris is truly a dog lover. Patient and attentive, lots of TLC. Kept us up to date with daily texts and pics. Five stars all the way!”
About: My life has been rewarded through a menagerie of animals and detailed care, ranging from dogs, cats, birds, fish, rodents. A complete joy to be offered and shared. I can easily dedicate my days for any level of care, ranging from walks, playtime, feedings or long or short overnight stays. Adaptable and flexible. With my watchful and caring eye, your pet will receive a full companionship and bonding treatment from my enthusiastic service. I'm dedicated to all animals.
“Kevin is always such a great house guest and truly loves our pets. The feeling is mutual, whenever Kevin comes to the house the doggies are clearly in LOVE with him and his energy, it makes us feel so good to have a great house/doggie sitter we can trust in the home who loves our babies like we do.”
“My gosh what a wonderful young lady she took the most beautiful care of my animals and my home. Erika is a wonderful selection as a house sitter. I will absolutely hire her again.”
About: I provide calm, attentive care for dogs and cats in a home where I only take pets from one household at a time. Your pets stay together and are never mixed with unfamiliar animals, creating a low-stress, comfortable environment. I work from home full-time, so your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, along with regular walks, playtime, and a structured routine. With over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and administering medication. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for like they’re at home. While I don’t have a private yard, I’m close to dog-friendly outdoor areas and take dogs out regularly for walks and fresh air. • One household at a time (no mixing with other pets) • Full-time supervision (I work from home) • Calm, clean home environment • Frequent photo updates so you always know how they’re doing Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m happy to set up a quick meet & greet to make sure it’s the right fit for you and your pet 😊 I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I am available to give your pet all the love, attention and exercise they need throughout the day! I have a spacious, open plan 2 bedroom apartment and my complex has a dog park. It is also located in a very walkable neighborhood. When looking after them in your home I will be sure to follow any routines you usually would.
“We were so happy to find Renee to stay at our house and take care of our dog! She is so nice, took great care of our dog, house and sent wonderful pictures! Look forward to having her stay again.”
About: Hi! I’m Vic! I have 4 years of hands on animal care experience, including working in a shelter medical department and caring for dogs and cats with a variety of needs. I’m comfortable with medication administration, feeding routines, senior pets, nervous animals, and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently looking to build my Rover clientele, so I’m especially excited to meet some new furry friends! 🐾 I’m available for pet care primarily in the evenings and on weekends. I keep my schedule organized and make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m very attentive when caring for pets and always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I pay close attention to appetite, behavior, bathroom habits, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’m used to working with all kinds of personalities and will take the time to learn what makes each pet feel secure. I’ll follow their routine and care instructions closely, keep their environment clean and calm, and treat your pets like they’re my own ❤️
“Jessica is fabulous! She was faced with two unexpected challenges on day one of her stay, and took them both on with grace. She updated us daily and our fur babies thrived under her care. Could not recommend her more highly.”
“Rhondee did an excellent job taking care of our pets and home. Any issues that arose were reported and dealt with promptly. Our girls are always happy to see her and we never worry about leaving them in her care.”
“Ilana took care of my mini zoo which is a large task She did is well. If she can handle my 3 dogs, 2 cats and a bearded dragon and not miss a beat, she can handle your babies. She took care of my place like it was her own. She even washed and dried the newly cleaned sheets and towels I left for her before she left my home . Thank you Ilana. I would like you to come back again”
“Rebecca communicated clearly with us throughout the process. Misty fell in love with her! I was worried she’d be crying at the door. Nope, she was asleep on Rebecca’s lap instead. What a relief. We look forward to return visits.”
“Kaylah was awesome with both our cat and dog. She was very attentative and had much concern about our cat not eating the first 24 hours. But, the situation resolved with Kaylah’s attempts to make the cat comfortable with her. 😃 She is the first to follow feeding instructions and found our home very clean. She is highly recommended that I’ve already booked her for our next trip.”
“This is our 2nd time using Colton for our fur babies. We have 2 small seniors and on large adult dog and he does a great job of accommodating their needs. & He follows directions to make sure medications and other request are done correctly. I Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Garnet on Rover is $111 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 642 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Garnet. 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 Garnet 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 Garnet 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 Garnet 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.
