“Stephanie provides frequent updates while dog sitting. She sends pictures and sweet messages. Our dogs love spending time with her because she takes such great care to ensure they get long walks and plenty of snuggles!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life. Other exotic animals like a Chinchilla and a bird. I’ve taken care of puppies and oldies, kittens and crazy cats. I’ll treat your fur babies like they are my own. Your house will be safe, your animals will be happy, and I will work hard to earn your trust! Pet care would be easy for me to work into my schedule. I’d be happy to do morning, mid-day, and evening drop-ins. I’d be happy to house sit any day of the week and take care of your fur babies! I’d prefer to come to your home to take care of your animals. I’d be happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets are receiving the best care!
“We had a wonderful experience with Alyssa! She was incredibly attentive and stayed with our dogs the entire time, making sure they were comfortable, and cared for. She kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were having a great time with the playtime and attention they received. We came home to happy, relaxed pups and couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve always had pets growing up. I used to volunteer at a dog shelter. I just personally love animals and are really good with animals I work part time but I have a very flexible schedule, I’d always make time to take care of pets when needed. I love all dogs big and small I have a blue tick hound that I rescued. I always play with her and take her out, she loves sleeping on my bed with me or in my room.
“Alannah did an AMAZING job watching our sweet old lady Chloe! We traveled out of state for a wedding and were nervous leaving our older dog behind - Alannah gave us such peace of mind while we were away, giving us updates daily and loving on our sweet girl. We 10/10 would recommend her for your pet!”
“Brittany is an amazing dog sitter!! She’s so sweet and put my mind at ease right away. Brittany loves animals, she took great care of my pup and my house. She also took pics and videos so I could see what my baby was up to. Don’t hesitate, you can trust her with your fur baby! My vaca was stress free knowing my dog was in great hands with Brittany.”
“Brianne was amazing with our chaotic, nutty furry bunch! We left her with our trio of cats and the dynamic duo of dogs, for a total of five. The first thing we noticed was how all of our furry ones were drawn to her. Animals just know if a person is good. Being away is hard, but it feels better when you have someone you can trust to love you while you're gone. My wife and I had complete peace of mind with her caring for our babies. Brianne is the BEST!”
“Natalia was truly the BEST Rover sitter we could have ever hoped for. From the moment we left, she was incredibly communicative, responsive, thoughtful, and caring — and she treated our home and fur babies like they were her own. We have three dogs and a cat, and every single one of them was so loved and well cared for while we were away. One of our pups ended up having an unexpected flea issue and was super itchy while she was staying with them, and Natalia immediately stepped in and handled everything with so much care and compassion. She bathed all three dogs, made sure they were comfortable, and kept us updated every step of the way. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such capable and loving hands. On top of taking amazing care of the animals, she went completely above and beyond with our home. She did laundry, swept, cleaned, remade the bed, and left the house better than we left it. You can genuinely tell she is the kind of person who respects and cares for other people’s space. Natalia is kind, trustworthy, attentive, responsible, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We felt so comfortable having her in our home and caring for the members of our family we love most. I honestly cannot recommend her highly enough. Anyone looking for a sitter who will love your pets deeply, communicate wonderfully, and care for your home with incredible respect should book her immediately. She is an absolute gem and we would trust her again in a heartbeat. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Kylee was absolutely fantastic with our dogs. She started with an initial meet‑and‑greet to make sure everyone was a good fit, which we really appreciated. Throughout her stay she sent daily pictures, followed all of our instructions, and kept us updated as needed — giving us total peace of mind while we were away. She’s a 5/5 sitter and we would hire her again in a heartbeat if she wasn’t moving!”
“This is our second time booking with her, and once again, she was absolutely amazing! 🥹❤️ I feel completely comfortable leaving our babies with her because I know they are in such good hands. She took so much care of both of them and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. She even gifted them some extra treats, toys, and calming goodies for Brover, which was incredibly thoughtful 🥹🐶🐱 It’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and that means so much to us. We’re so grateful for how loving, attentive, and thoughtful she is. She went above and beyond to make them feel loved and comfortable, and we will definitely continue booking with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur babies! 💕”
“Benjamin took amazing care of our little dog. Our dog immediately gravitated to Benjamin upon meeting. We received periodic updates and photos which we greatly appreciated from Benjamin when he watched our dog, would definitely recommend and would definitely work with him again in the future.”
“Bella did an absolutely amazing job caring for my two little ones!! I was so nervous as multiple other sitters had cancelled last minute and we were getting very close to the trip - she was so fast and courteous in her messaging and came out to do a meet and greet the next evening. She stayed in my home and kept me fully looped in on how things were going with multiple pictures throughout the trip. My two smaller dogs can be picky with people but they both adored her from the jump and they got so much love while I was gone. My littles have never been so happy while I’ve been gone, and my house was cleaned up when I returned! I will absolutely be booking Bella in the future, her care for dogs in unmatched!”
About: Hey everyone! I’ve owned animals my whole life ranging from hamsters and fish to dogs and cats! I’ve volunteered at different animal shelters helping out. I would not only love to help the animals but the parents as well! I have owned dogs in the past and currently have 2 cats and will take care of your animals the way I care for my babies! With my job, I have alot of time off during the weeks to help out! I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own. I’m also happy to keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’d love the opportunity to become someone you and your pets can count on. 🐶🐱❤️ I will care for your pets in your home in a safe way, making sure they feel comfortable with me and you feel comfortable as well!
“Trinity was absolutely fantastic with my 2 dogs. I have a Belgian malinois and a Staffordshire, 11 and 5 respectively, and both felt very comfortable around trinity. In the past my dogs would have nervous stomach problems with other sitters, but trinity made them feel loved and comfortable, and when we came back from our trip they were happy and loved. Trinity kept us in the loop the entire trip and respected our home and dogs like her own. Will definitely be hiring trinity again in the future.”
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with high energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, as well as more relaxed pets that just want companionship and attention. My experience includes feeding routines, administering basic care, walking dogs on leash, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved while their owners are away. I always pay attention to each pet’s personality and adjust my care to match their needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own keeping them on their routine as much as possible and making sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are in responsible, caring hands. I’m currently working full time but i’m available all day on my days off which are Wednesday & Thursdays. Im available after 6 on weekends When caring for your pet in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions exactly as provided, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication, and any specific care guidelines for the pet. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well supervised at all times. For dogs, I provide structured walks, potty breaks, and playtime based on their energy level and needs. For cats or other pets, I ensure they are fed on time, have clean water, a clean environment, and receive attention and interaction based on their personality. I also respect the client’s home by keeping everything clean and organized, cleaning up after pets, and making sure doors and entry points are secure when I arrive and leave. I pay attention to any changes in behavior or health and communicate immediately with the owner if anything seems off. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and cared for while they’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Geneva is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Geneva 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 Geneva 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 Geneva 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 with handling special pet needs in Geneva. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
