“Michelle did a fantastic job in caring for Chloe and Gus. They are a “handful” and she handled them with loving care! Michelle sent me texts and pictures throughout the stay to let me know everything was going well and the pups were having fun. The house looked great when we returned and she even left me a sweet Thank You Note. I have Michelle scheduled for two additional stays in the near future. It is so nice to know our babies are well taken care of while we are gone. I can not recommend Michelle more highly?????”
“Courtney did such an amazing job with our dog for a long weekend. She was very good at taking direction with our dog and house and keeping our dog happy and healthy. Our dog absolutely loved Courtney! Courtney is reliable and definitely a dog lover.”
“Tresalyn is a gem of a human being through and through! She is any and all qualities you would want as a dog sitter! We went out of the country on a 5 night holiday and had such peace of mind to have somebody such as Tresalyn care for our rescue doggies. Our one dog is a highly traumatized rescue therefore finding a kind-natured human is important for us to feel secure in leaving them and Tresalyn totally held down the fort in every way while we were gone! To get home to a tidy house, happy dogs and a hand-written note thanking us for entrusting her with the pups … it is all so great! I would and will be recommending Tresalyn to anyone that requires such services. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Christina is such an amazing pet care provider! One of my dogs was in heat, and got into a tussle with my other fixed female while I was away. She did everything to make sure they got separated and were okay. I’m so thankful to have found not just a great care provider but one that kept my furbabies safe while I was away! Thank you Christina!!!”
“Sara showed up promptly for the drop-in visit at exactly the time she said she'd arrive, gave attention to both our dogs and texted photos and a "report" when she left. We'll be contacting her again.”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs through family and friends, including puppies only a few months old, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, potty breaks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets extra patience and attention based on their needs. I also have experience providing oral and rectal medications when needed. I deeply care for all dogs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during my visits. I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule, and pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I like having a routine, so I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule as much as possible. I care for every pet like they are my own. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication needs, crate instructions, and any house rules. I also like to send updates and pictures so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for.
“Victoria exceeded all expectations! I have 2 cats (15 & 6) that both required different levels of care and Victoria was able to handle both of them. She was very thorough in her prep and we had a video consult to go over all expectations, requests, questions, etc. She was detailed and asked questions I hadn’t even thought to cover. During the pet sitting, she kept me updated at all time and provided pictures to let me know the girls were doing okay. My 15 year old cat requires multiple medications that can sometimes be difficult to administer and she was able to administer with no issues. Nothing about this was a negative experience and I would recommend her to anyone!! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
“Diane was great! The dogs loved her from the moment they met her! She jumped in to sit on a last minute request - very much appreciated! Diane was great sending videos and pics to keep us updated! I will definitely reach out again when the pups need a sitter! Definitely recommend!”
“This was our first time using Corina and she was great! Fantastic communication daily. She sent pics of our pets every morning and every evening. She was very respectful of our home. It is obvious that our pets were well cared for and happy. We have already booked her for another three dates. She is now our go to sitter!”
“Keana was amazing!! She loved our fur babies, sent updates and pictures, left our home in perfect order and did everything we asked!! We are already setting up our next appointment. Keana is kind, attentive and transparent. Couldn't have asked for a better fit!”
“Absolutey fantastic! Hannah was truly the BEST! Henry was well cared for, happy and comfortable the entire time. I also appreciated all the updates, photos, and attention given to his needs. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She was Awesome! I will definitely book her again!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for cats and many years of looking after small dogs for family and friends. Whether your pet is a playful pup, a shy kitty, or a professional nap enthusiast, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and favorite way to spend the day—whether that means playtime, cuddle time, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I have extensive experience with cats and am comfortable caring for multiple pets, giving medications if needed, and keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages. My goal is simple: to treat your pets like family, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and become their new favorite sitter! I work full-time Monday through Friday, so I’m used to planning my days around a schedule. I’m happy to work with your routine and find times that fit both of our schedules. I’m available outside of my work hours and on weekends, and I’m flexible when it comes to coordinating drop-ins, walks, or stays. Just let me know what your pets are used to and what you need, and we can figure out what works! Since I work full-time Monday through Friday, I know how important it is to have someone reliable who can fit into your pets’ normal routine. I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide care in your home, where your pets are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, litter box care, cuddles, or just keeping them company. I’ll also make sure your home is left the way I found it and keep you updated while you’re away. My goal is to make things feel as normal as possible for your pets while you’re gone.

Great pet caregiver with amazing preparation. Karla is very sensitive to the needs of owner and my girls. She comes to see the dogs before the stay to make sure they are all good with each other. She's a great communicator. She walks them and loves on them to their comfort level. My girls are in great care when Karla stays with them. Highly recommend.
Vanessa is great! She communicates well, kept my home clean, girls happy, and watered my plants! She is so patient and kind. Her little pug, Oliver is also great and my girls loved him. Vanessa did not ask, I offered. It was really nice leaving the girls with someone that cared so well for them!

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 Geronimo 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 Geronimo 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 Geronimo 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.
