“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!”
“We were very grateful to have Jennifer's help with our three pets while out of town (an adult dog, a puppy, and a cat). We appreciated her enthusiasm to be there for our pets, be a presence for our home while we were gone, and it gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was very communicative and respectful of our home, and she took good care of our animals. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“All care requested was met with flying colors! My fur babes were in the best care so happy when I returned home like they had been on vacation too! I got photos everyday of their goofy sweet faces”
“Sonal is always amazing with our pets. She really goes above and beyond your normal pet care. She's super responsive and gives plenty of updates so we're always up to date on how our pets are in her care. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a super caring, loving pet sitter.”
“Sydney was great with our two pups while we were out of town. Our Malinois got sick just before we left and I let her know we gave him rice and he should be ok. She responded that even if he was still sick, she would take care of it. She let them out frequently and took great care of them! Will be utilizing Sydney again. Thank you! 😊”
About: Hi! My name is Brandy! I have a certificate for zoo and domestic animal care from yavapai college in Arizona. I am also a dog owner of 11 years. I have certified both my dogs through the petsmart training courses. I have learned a lot through school and owning dogs of my own and have always had a passion for animals. Thanks so much for considering me for your furry babies! I am a server working part time and am looking for a way to make a little extra money on the side doing something I love! I am available for dog walking Monday-Sunday anytime before 2:30 and available Monday-Wednesday for overnights or whatever you may need as those are my days off. I will not be able to board any animals as I have a bit of a reactive border collie at my house but am available to come to your house for your needs
“Anneke was a literal dream! This is the first time I've ever had a non-family member watch Rocco and she was so communicative and understanding. She was so good with Rocco and I felt so comfortable with her there. 10/10 all around. We will definitely be booking her again and again!”
“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.”
“Morgan was a great sitter for our two beagles! She was very quick to respond and gave them very good care. One of our dogs is higher maintenance and she was very good at handling him. She also has experience with managing a shock collar and bark collar if your dog has one of those. One of the dogs had hives and Morgan made sure to call our primary vet to see if the dog should be taken in. She would make sure the dogs got to go on a walk and have time to go to the bathroom and eat. She also made sure to keep our place clean while we were gone (cleaning up the dogs messes) and followed all the directions we gave her:)”
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!
About: Hi families! I’m Sylvanah, a Veterinary Technician with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals. I provide loving, reliable care, including walks, feeding, medications, monitoring, and post-surgery support. I can’t wait to meet your furry family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, drop-ins, and sitting. I’m comfortable following each pet’s routine and making sure they receive the exercise, attention, meals, medications, and care they need while their family is away. When caring for pets in their home, I make sure to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow their feeding, walking, medication, and playtime schedules and give them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m respectful of the home and follow any instructions the family provides. With my veterinary background, I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or health and will keep the owners updated while they’re away. My goal is for their pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home.
“Daniela was fabulous! Highly recommend! She stayed in home for an entire week during the holidays to watch our fur baby, Kobe. She followed all the instructions left behind (regarding pup’s allergies). Her communication was superb. She sent us daily pictures and videos as well as proactively asked us any questions if she was unsure of something. Then she was kind enough to not only take out the trash in house but wash the spare bedroom sheets (where she stayed) and make the bed so we came home to a perfectly clean home and happy pup. Grateful to have found someone so reliable and sweet. Kobe loves his new friend, Daniela!”
About: Reliable and outgoing, I love animals of all sizes and shapes. From volunteering at shelters, to helping friends walk their dogs or caring for cats. I currently have a full time job, although I am available during the week days after 6pm and all weekend to play and care for your loved pets! I follow instructions very well and am detailed oriented. I like to send picture updates for extended care, or even after a one time daily walk! I’d like to make the most comfortable, easy and fun experience for owners and their pets.
About: I have had several different pets in my life , including mainly dogs and cats. I currently have 3 cats who I love so much ! I’m currently In college and I’m not working at the moment , so my schedule is really flexible and I have plenty of time to take care of animals ! I have three friendly cats who would be able to keep other animals company that come into my home ! I always make sure to feed my animals and take care of them in the best way possible
“Thank you Rachel for taking care of our Doberman Max. We were in an Airbnb located in Orlando and she was able to take care of my boy. Also, we arrange an extra time and was late night and she was fine with it. Do not hesitate to contact her to take care of your four legged friends. :)”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I have two rescue dogs, Tina and Matilda, and a one-eyed cat named Fred, so caring for animals is a big part of my everyday life. I also volunteered at the Orange County Animal Shelter for over a year and have fostered several dogs, which gave me experience helping pets adjust to new environments and routines. I grew up with a French Bulldog and also lived with my roommate’s Pug for 10 months, so I’m very familiar with brachycephalic breeds and their needs. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and giving oral medications. Friends and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, and care for their pets, and I hope you’ll feel comfortable trusting me with yours too! 🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine! I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so my days naturally include walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, which allows me to easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. I have a fenced yard to keep all the pups safe and always under my supervision. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have a big crate so you don’t have to bring yours.
“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!”

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
