“Katelyn was wonderful! She took excellent care of my pup, sent me regular updates and photos, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a house that was left in great condition. She was reliable, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Alyson did an absolutely amazing job caring for our sweet tri-pawd, George. She went above and beyond giving George extra care, walks, and cuddles while we were away. She also provided us with ongoing communication on how he was doing, along with pictures, so we were worry-free during our time away from him. I would highly recommend Alyson to anyone, and we will definitely be working with her in the future!”
About: I've always had dogs my whole life. Friends and family can always rely on me to take care of their pets or check in on their pets whenever they are out of town or busy at work. I will feed, walk, and play for however much time is needed. I currently work early mornings but there is someone always at the house to feed, play and keep your furry friends company! My whole day after work is completely open so I can't wait to take care of them. Huge fenced yard as well as a my own pet to play with your furry friend if needed. Plenty of toys to keep them occupied as well as plenty of treats to spoil them.
“Renee house-sat for us and was great! She was very respectful of our home, and sent lots of photos and videos. But most importantly, our pets really loved her. She is very attuned to animals and their needs ❤️”
“Dana did an incredible job staying with our two doodles & watching our house while we were away for one week! She effortlessly picked up on our dogs' different personalities & needs, was a clear communicator throughout the stay, and left our house in impeccable shape. We couldn't recommend her highly enough!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family since adopting my first family pup in kindergarten! After experiencing a violent car accident at a young age with my dog who developed severe anxiety as a result, I’ve spent much time learning how to handle reactive, sensitive, and anxious dogs, as well as patience with seniors and specials needs. I am a recent graduate from Johns Hopkins University and am taking a gap in my studies until beginning a graduate program at Northwestern University in the Fall. Until then, I’m open and incredibly flexible, and I want to be of any help I can for your fur babies whenever you need! After adopting an incredibly high energy pup 3 years ago, I’ll draw from everything I’ve learned to make sure your pup gets the play, exercise, and enrichment they deserve! I spend a lot of time outside with dogs on walks, jogs, and play dates and am excited to do the same with yours!
“Katalina was great while watching our dog and cat! She was responsive and left our home spotless! Thank you for helping us get away for a few days… not easy to do with 3 kiddos these days. It was such a relief to not have to worry about the animals. I would def recommend her!”
“Joanna did a phenomenal job caring for my dog over a long weekend! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals.she provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mine while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. It was obvious that Joanna treated my dog like one of her own, and I could tell my pup felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care Joanna provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Joanna. Thank you for going above and beyond! 🐾💕”
“Gem was absolutely fabulous from start to finish! She house-sat with my two dogs and two cats for a full week. At the meet-and-greet, she was on time, professional, curious, and exceptionally great with both dogs. My dogs are a bit much -- one is big, old, a little grumpy, and had mobility issues, and the other is young, hyper, and nervous about the world. Gem easily adapted to both and we felt so comfortable leaving them in her hands! Throughout the stay, she sent lots of detailed updates (with pretty photos!) and you could tell by the descriptions that she was truly taking the time to get to know our pets. She keyed in on subtle behaviors and personality quirks. Her updates were so reassuring! The house was cleaner than we left it, mail was brought in, and the animals were all healthy and happy upon our return. Will absolutely hire Gem again in the future, and I fully recommend her as a pet sitter or dog walker!”
“Gabrielle is always fast to respond & great with communication. She spends quality time with my dog while I am away which is great for my older, anxious pup!”
About: I grew up with many pets so i’ve been taking care of them since I was very young. I’ve been dog and cat sitting for others for about 4 years now from all different ages ranging from a puppy to an elderly dog. I have a rabbit so Id be happy to rabbit sit! 🐰 I’ve also taken care of a bearded dragon! I’ve administered medication when needed such as insulin to dogs. Pet sitting fits into my daily routine through out the week from the morning time and afternoon time as well. I’m also free on weekends! I create a comfortable and loving environment in owners home so that your pet doesn’t get stressed while away. I keep their normal routine with feedings and walkings as well.
“Chris was fabulous with our dogs and they adored her! She is very kind, polite and easy to work with. You can definitely tell from her questions that she has experience dog sitting. Such a great fit for our two angels - we will be calling upon Chris again!!”
“Belle, our 7 year old Golden Retriever, immediately took to Elijah and misses her already. She arrived on time and informed us how Belle was doing when we were gone. She left Belle and our house in great shape. We highly recommend her.”
“Bryan really helped us out by stepping in last minute. We were already out of town when he took over care for Gus, but Bryan ensured easy communication and coordination. Thank you!!”
“Joey was amazing! He went above and beyond to keep our pup safe and entertained. She just had knee surgery, and he was so sweet to hang out with her, keeping her comfortable.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs throughout my life and I have always felt a strong connection and kindness to animals. I have done petsitting for dogs, cats, and even a leopard gecko before! I have one cat who is 17 years old. His brother was the same age and passed away earlier this year. I had a dog that lived to about 15 and I lost him several years ago, so I have experience with taking care of senior pets and the process of loss. Taking care of pets is something I love doing! I work as a mental health therapist, with most of my shifts from 3pm-8pm on weekdays. I sometimes have meetings in mid-morning. With my job, there is tremendous flexibility due to constant shifts in my caseload and clients cancelling appointments. I am also in charge of my own schedule. Generally, I will be most available in the morning and afternoon for pet care. Weekend availability may fluctuate depending on my plans. I will happily follow your instructions and preferences regarding care for your pet, and I would love to send you pictures and updates! I appreciate it when my own cat-sitter does that for me, so I know you probably do too.
“Dominique was great at my place for the week! She sent regular updates, followed instructions I gave and ensured the place was clean prior to leaving. Nala was well taken care of!”

We had a great experience with Jiayi! She was incredibly communicative, respectful, and thoughtful throughout her stay. She kept us updated and was very easy to coordinate with. We really appreciated how responsive and responsible she was, and we’d be happy to have her sit for us again!
Abby was great with Cubby when we were away for the weekend. We have a distinct dog and home routine, and she followed the routine very well. She was great in updating us with feeding and potty updates. She communicated with us in a timely manner and showed up on time. Her genuine care for Cubby showed through her work. We appreciated Abby's patience when there was an unexpected change in schedule and she managed the change with grace. We came home to a happy dog, and although I'm sure he missed us, it also showed he was well taken care of when we were away. We highly recommend Abby to care for your pets and look forward to having her care for Cubby when the opportunity comes again.

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 Golf 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 Golf 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 Golf 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.

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.

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.
