Randi took such great care of my furbabies and was so patient with one of them being a puppy. She stayed overnight with them and walked them often. I came home to two happy and loved dogs! Would definitely call on her again for future pet setting needs.

Emma was great. She watched our dog and two cats for over a week and they thrived. Her communication was great, and we came home to happy pets and our home as we left it.

Lena was great! She sent updates with many pictures of Bosun and Ferry carrying on happily without us! She messaged us with questions as well, which we appreciated because it showed she cared about making sure things carried on as they would if we were home. We are booking her help again!

Rochelle absolutely exceeded all my expectations. I received so many lovely updates while I was away, and she communicated with me about everything. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit uncertain, but it was such a wonderful experience. We will most definitely be working with Rochelle again, and I would recommend her to anyone!

Andrew was absolutely wonderful! He took care of our fur babies for several days, and was so attentive and loving to them. He sent us great pictures with hilarious captions that brightened our day. We knew that we had left them in great hands. When we came home, all of our pets seemed so happy, loved, and well taken care of. We can’t thank him enough and would recommend him to anyone! We will definitely be using his services again in the future.

About: As an animal lovers, I promise to treat your pet like my own. They’ll be in good hands with me for the duration of their stay. My dog has a strict routine as I believe taking care of pers works better with a specific schedule. He wakes up, gets fed, gets taken out, is given treats, among everything else at the same time. Every day. I work from home and that makes it easy to adjust our schedule. My dog gets taken out early in the morning and fed. After he then gets taken back out later that morning. In addition, we spend some time outside in the afternoon during lunch. In the evening, he’s fed and taken back out for a bit. Later at night, he’s taken out once more and given a dental treat before bed time.

About: I have taken care of other peoples pets since I was a teenager. I have done drop ins and over night care for dogs and cats! I know fur babies are family and I take very good care of them. I have two dogs and four cats of my own! I would love the chance to let your pet get out and potty/stretch during the day or evening while you’re away. I am currently a stay at home mom. I have a lot of free time during the week as well as weekends. I can be available during the times of 8:30am-7:30pm or additional times if needed! I can let your dogs out to play and potty in your yard, if you don’t have a fenced in area I can put them on a leash and walk them. I can accommodate most things, just let me know your needs!

Madison did an amazing job pet and house sitting for us! Her communication and updates (with photos) were fantastic, which really helped so much especially since we were out of the country. Not only did Madison take exceptional care of our pets, but the house looked perfect when we returned home! This was our first booking with Madison and we will most certainly book with her again! We absolutely recommend Madison for all you pet and house sitting needs!!

Jasmine was able to come in and literally save the day for us when our plans fell through. It was super last minute but she came over and met our dogs and communicated with me quickly. She’s experienced with Shepherd behavior and we would definitely book her again.

We absolutely love Tawny taking care of our Pearl! She and her daughter spent a week here and we loved seeing the two become the best of friends! Tawny makes sure to take care of your place - to include laundry, dishes, trash, even cleaning it up before we arrived home - all without being expected of her. She really does go above and beyond and she will be our forever fur babysitter! Pearl adores her and her daughter so that’s obviously a huge bonus!

Ada house sat my dog who was both diabetic and recovering from bronchitis which required shots and other medications twice a day. She not only cared for MMO’s medical needs but provided emotional support for him in my absence. She sent pictures and conducted a River video chat with me to ensure not only Momo’s emotional support but for mine as well. I felt confident my beloved pet was in good hands.

About: Hi! My name is Ali I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter with 4 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats in their own homes. I know how important it is to keep your pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, medication (if needed and instructions are provided), and lots of love and attention. I also treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, bringing in mail or packages, watering plants if needed, and leaving everything just as you left it. I’m currently a radiology student, so I’ll be away for a good portion of the day on weekdays. Because of this, I’m the best fit for pets that are comfortable being alone for several hours during the day. When I’m home, I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I understand that trusting someone with both your pets and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can enjoy your time away knowing everything is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a radiology student, my schedule varies throughout the year depending on classes and clinicals. I’ll always communicate my availability well in advance, so you’ll know exactly when I’ll be away. I believe in being transparent and reliable, and I’ll only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable, confident, and well cared for while you’re away. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other special care your pet requires. I love spending quality time with pets, whether that means going on walks, playing with their favorite toys, or simply relaxing with them and giving them lots of attention. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own. I’ll keep your home clean and tidy, bring in mail or packages, water plants if requested, and make sure everything is secure. If you’re booking me for overnight care, I’ll stay in your home so your pets can remain in a familiar environment and have companionship throughout the evening and overnight. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, feeding, medication, enrichment, and plenty of love and attention. My grooming experience has also given me a strong understanding of canine behavior and handling. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a college student, but I complete most of my coursework from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. When school starts I will be sure to mark my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. With professional experience in both pet care and dog grooming, I’m confident caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities.

Charlotte took great care of my dog Cher and left the house super clean! She was super patient and understanding of Cher’s leash reactivity which made me feel more confident leaving. She also sent me tons of photos which was so nice because I was missing Cher a lot! Looking forward to hopefully having her stay again sometime. Thanks Charlotte!!!

Peyton took wonderful care of our dogs while we were away! One of our dogs is diabetic and requires oral medication and insulin injections twice a day, and she handled his care with confidence. She went above and beyond trying to get him to eat when he was being stubborn. We came home to two happy, well cared for dogs and would absolutely book with Peyton again. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Globe

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,208 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Globe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Globe 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 Globe 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 Globe 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Globe. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
