Most likely she will she is amazing with animals and gets along with every one . I can't wait to share my services with you.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. My friends and family have been relying on me to walk and feed their dogs for years! Cuddles are also a must! May or may not talk to them like they are babies (which they 100% are) I currently work full-time at an elementary school, so this is only a weekend gig. That being said, I love going to watch and walk dogs of all kind!! Typically when I’m walking a dog, I make sure the dog goes at its own pace. It’s the dogs walk, not mine. That being said, I do what’s necessary to keep them from harm. I also will play with your dog whether it is just a walk-session or a full house stay.
About: I am loving, honest, and willing to go above and beyond for your animal. I can take care of medication needs, training, potty training, and more. I have CPR training and can provide comfort for the anxious friends too! I am disabled, but have 100% commitment and free time to help your fur baby out. My schedule is open and readily available. I can also provide last minute services. I treat every animal with respect and love, mine or not. They deserve the best care regardless of breed, size, or condition. Each animal gets the same one on one care.
“Joey is simply fantastic. He really understands dogs and cats. Joey provided photos every day, which we really appreciated. Everybody looked great when we returned home. He clearly took time to groom the dogs. Not only did he take terrific care of our fur babies, but our house as well. He vacuumed, did laundry, and left the kitchen spotless! We can't wait to have Joey pet sit again!”
About: I understand that pets are family and treat them as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pets unique personality and needs so they feel comfortable and loved. I understand how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I value communication, updates and photos to let you know your furry family member is cared for. My goal is to make every stay a positive experience. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, and I have the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My schedule gives me the flexibility for frequent drop ins and trying to maintain a usual routine for a pet. I understand how important consistency and affection is for pets, especially if owners are away. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy and relaxed in their familiar surroundings. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and try to maintain usual routines. I make sure the animal gets everything they need, while also being respectful of my clients’ homes, keeping everything clean and tidy while ensuring pets are safe at all times.
“Sarah was very communicative and reliable during her stay. She took my dog to the vet when a new issue arose and managed his medication and care. She is thorough and thoughtful. I definitely recommend Sarah!”
About: I have been a pet owners from 5 years and been fostering, dog sitting and dog walking for the same amount. My availability is wide open on Mondays, Wednesday, Sunday and partially open the other days. I have a large fenced in yard where the dogs play. I have two mini dog pools for those who enjoy them, and countless dog toys. I enjoy nothing more to spend my free tome with my furry friends. I own a 4 year old chocolate lab named a Wesley. He is super friendly and loves having playmates to enjoy his time with. Walks and runs are always in my schedule, and have explored many dog parks and trails in the area. I look forward to meeting your pet:)
About: Growing up I’ve always had a pet, whether it was a dog, cat, bearded dragon, hamster, bunny, horses, chickens, etc. The past experience I have is from ages 6 weeks-18years old. I’m up for any task and have no trouble walking dogs who pull. I use a harness for one of my dogs and he is always comfortable walking with me. I currently work full-time but have a flexible schedule. I have three dogs and 2 cats of my own but have help with them. Can always adjust schedule as needed. I treat every pet the way I would want someone to treat my pet. I listen to rules very carefully and I’m a very trustworthy person. I also send updates on your furry friend!
“What a wonderful experience. We had out meet and greet with Mariana and booked her for an overnight stay with our 3 golden retrievers. I felt extremely comfortable with her in our home and caring for our fur-babies. We received a text when she arrived and the puppies met her at the door. We received texts and videos throughout the evening I could tell they were being spoiled. We got home to a clean house and 3 exhausted puppies. Thank you Mariana for everything.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Geneva is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $56 per night.

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 , 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.
