“Toni swooped in at the last minute when another Sitter backed out on me! During the meet and greet, she got right down on the floor with Pucca to meet her and play with her. Pucca absolutely loves her! I could tell by the way Pucca got majorly excited and happy when Toni came back for a visit today to pick up a couple of things that were accidentally left behind. Pucca was so happy to see her that I'm convinced she was treated well and with love and affection. I was away for 8 days. Toni arrived on time and I was able to get an early visit start so that I could make it to the airport on time. When my friend's truck broke down and I thought I may be later than expected arriving home, she had no problem with it. (I was on time though). She even said she didn't mind taking Pucca to my Vet to get her Citopoint shot and glands done. (I was going to get an appointment when I got home, now I don't have to). With my permission, she took Pucca along with her to her place when she went home to do laundry. When I asked for a Video Chat here and there, I was accommodated. It is my opinion that Pucca was well loved, cared for and looked after while I was away. ***NOTE*** Upon my return, I found a typwritten "Toni's Care Notes for Pucca" stating her eating habits, walk schedule & health. Nice touch.”
“I recently left my pup with Tera while I were away, and it was hands-down the best decision I could have made. From our first meet-and-greet, Tera was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs—she asked thoughtful questions about routines, favorite toys, and any quirks right away. She sent daily photo and video updates (which included some hilarious playtime moments and cozy nap shots), so Inever had to wonder if our dog was happy and safe. Our pup came home relaxed, well-exercised, and clearly adored Tera’s! Tera followed every instruction to the letter, kept the house spotless, and even went the extra mile with cleaning up the house. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely loving toward animals, Tera is the one. Thank you, Tera!!! 💖💖🐩🐩”
“She was awesome! My pets loved her! When we got home my dog was searching for her lol. My cat is usually very shy around strangers but she came right up to Debbie!”
“Emma did an absolutely fabulous job taking care of all our animals. She is kind, caring and a professional. It was our first time using rover and she made it so easy and sent us pictures of our pets who always looked happy!”
“Crystal was fantastic with our Tuco and he was so happy in his update pictures. This was our first time leaving him in the care of someone else and Crystal was perfect. We can tell Tuco already misses his friends and we will absolutely book Crystal again!”
“Natalie did a fabulous job caring for our two big dogs while we were out of town. Her communication is awesome, she asks great questions, keeps us informed and updated on our boys, and left the house clean. We felt comfortable knowing she was there and will put her at the top of the list for rebooking the next time we travel. Our pups were happy and content. Thank you Natalie!”
About: I have had pets for over 20 years. I love all fur babies and will take care of yours while you are away. Currently I have 3 doggos and your baby can chill with the pack or have their own space. I’m comfortable bathing pups, administering meds, whatever you need! I work part time in a remote (wfh) position that allows me to be with my babies all day every day. Can be let out for potty breaks every few hours or as needed. I have a large fenced backyard for your pet to chill out with my 3 friendly dogs, short distance to trails, and if your dog is on the shy side, they can be on their own but still safe and happy.
“Ana is the best! I feel 100% confident when we leave our dog Abbey with her. She is super conscientious and really understands dog behavior. Ana stayed with our dog at our house. She took excellent care of our dog and house and even watered our plants. She communicated very well before our booking and sent us updates and photos while she was sitting for our dog.”
“Jann took great care of my 4 kitties and my house while I was away. She has a friendly and calm manner that attracted one of my shy cats out of hiding. I highly recommend her!”

“Holly was so incredible with our three pups. They adored her and loved all the love and snuggles she provided. She also sent many picture updates which I appreciated during our 6 day booking. She was on top of the communication and we would highly recommend her!”
“As always, Kristina was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable knowing our babies were being so well looked after. She was communicative, always thoughtful and friendly, and even sent us photos so we could see what a good time our doggies were having with her. We would recommend her to anyone who asks!”
“Amy was nothing short of amazing! She took such great care of our home and our pups! We came back to happy tails and a spotless house. She even left us a sweet note, which was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing everything was in such good hands while we were away. Highly recommend Amy, we’ll definitely be booking her again! Thank you, Amy!”
“This was Lexie's second time staying with our three dogs. This time we were away for 10 days. We appreciate that she took great care of them while we were away and I think they appreciated all the snuggles and treats! We received MANY photos, videos and updates. And when our return flight was delayed a couple of hours, Lexie rearranged her schedule to be able to stay a couple of extra hours so our dogs wouldn't be home alone for too long, which was a huge relief for us.”
“Patricia handled our home & challenging pack of dogs like a pro, one of them being a busy 7 month old pup, which I’m certain left her a bit sleep deprived. I was sent daily updates and photos, not just of our dogs, but of our 12 chickens and 3 cats as well. Her exceptional level of communication kept me connected while away. And returning to a spotless home was such an added bonus.”

Being home all day to provide attention and care helps your dog feel comfortable and safe. Our fenced backyard also offers a secure place for him/her to explore and play.
“Our second time with Alona and it won’t be our last. She is the best. Takes care of our home and our boys and we are able to have that weight off our shoulders while enjoying family vacations. She celebrated one of our boys birthdays and sent us updates around the clock. We came home to a tidy house and happy tired pups. Can’t ask for anything better!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Getchell
Geo is an absolute rock star! I was nervous to leave my 2 kitties for a recent trip to Oregon but Geovani turned out to be a real cat whisperer! My 12 yr old tortie is a real scaredy cat but in a matter of hours she came out of hiding and hung out with him in the living room. He played with the 2 year old male and managed to keep the peace between the 2 cats! He medicated and fed them as directed and thoroughly and regularly cleaned the litter boxes. He even watered the flowers on my balcony for me. My apartment was immaculate when I returned and the cats acted as though I had never left. Geo will definitely be my go-to for future house sitting and cat care!
Nikki did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs, Reuben and Frank! She was great with them, kept us updated with excellent communication, and sent us pictures while we were away, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy dogs and a clean, tidy house. We would absolutely recommend Nikki and would gladly have her watch Reuben and Frank again!
We’re so grateful for the amazing care she provided for our dogs. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated throughout the stay. Our dogs looked so relaxed and happy with her. She was gentle, patient, and truly treated them like her own. We would absolutely book with her again!
Aurora is FANTASTIC. Our pooch was pamper and well cared for and the daily updates were thoughtful and appreciated. Our home was left in exceptional condition and she went above and beyond with extra walks and attention for our dog. We will absolutely book Aurora again.
We are first time cat owners. Our guy is just 10 months old, and this trip to help deal with some elderly parent issues in Florida was the first time we’ve traveled since getting our cat. We were very nervous. Luckily, we found Camille and she was available. We could not be happier. Excellent communication, lots of pics and videos of our guy, and she went above and beyond for us many times throughout the week. By the end of the first day, we knew Ulrich was in excellent hands and we’d made the right choice. I want to tell you that Camille is awesome, we are thrilled with her performance as a sitter, and that we think our cat now officially has an aunt, but I also kind of want to keep quiet about it, because I don’t want her to be booked solid the next time we need her. :P And there will be a next time. She’s fantastic. Hire her.

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 Getchell 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 Getchell 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 Getchell 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.
