“Emily is the best! She is very caring, conscientious, reliable & flexible. She takes such good care of our birds and they just love her! She is also great at communicating and provides frequent updates. She is a great sitter!”
“I found Megan was very responsible. My dog, Maizie, was well taken care of and I enjoyed the pictures Megan sent very much. My house was in great order when I returned.”
“This is the first time that I have used Rover. Sakara did a lovely job. I would definitely request her again. She sent pictures almost daily and my dogs looked happy and content. I currently have a foster dog who is timid and Sakara did a great job with her. It was nice to be away and know that my fur babies were well taken care of.”
“Katelyn was awesome! She took excellent care of my two dogs and my home. She sent photos and video of my pups multiple times a day, kept me informed, and even dealt with arriving packages, watering my plants, and other various tasks. Upon returning home, I found happy, healthy dogs and my house spotless and clean. I would most definitely book Katelyn again in the future!”
“The girls always enjoy their stays with Tess! She communicates well, sends lots of photos, and gives them love. I will continue to use her whenever I need someone I can trust with my pups!”
“Anna was so good with my dogs and followed all instructions. She was super respectful of my home, and left without a trace. I felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of my two dogs, and upon my return home they were relaxed and happy. I will definitely be hiring Anna again! Wonderful!”
“Tyler was wonderful to work with. He was great with our dog and seemed to be very comfortable around him. He communicated with us regularly, including sending pictures and video of Moose during our time away. He left our home clean with nothing out of place and was very pleasant and dependable.”
“Ella made sure our kitties got plenty of love while we were away! She was able to administer oral medication appropriately. She tidied up after herself- you couldn’t even tell anyone had been here!”
“Grace is wonderful! She is kind, considerate, and did such a great job with our cat. She stayed a week in our home and treated it as her own, accepting packages, keeping things clean, sending us pictures, and letting us know about her days while we were away. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Lauren was the sweetest and made our pups feel like they had family keeping them. We never worried because of her check-ins and she was wonderful with our 1 year old Shihtzu and our 11 year old lab/collie mix. We loved the photos and she made sure our dogs were so well taken care of. We would happily use her again!”
About: I have always been a dog lover. My husband and I have have dogs for our entire marriage. 22yrs!! They are such a part of the family!!! I'm a stay at home Mom.

“Emma did a great job looking after my two pups! She was on time, provided great care to Milo & Cooper, and provided us with updated throughout the day! She even made sure the house was even cleaner than she found it. We will definitely be using Emma again and recommend you reach out to her the next time you need a dog/house sitter!”
About: Hi my name is Abi. I’ve spent the last year caring for dogs of all kinds, and there’s nothing I take more seriously than making sure a pet feels safe and loved while their owner is away. One thing that genuinely sets me apart: I’m experienced handling multiple dogs at once. Whether you have a duo that plays off each other’s energy or a household with very different personalities, I know how to keep the dynamic balanced and every dog feeling attended to. I am a college student currently home trying to make extra money! my time is genuinely flexible. I’m available every morning, afternoon and evening on weekdays, and largely wide open on weekends. Pet care fits naturally into that rhythm, I can stop by for midday check ins on days I have lighter schedules, and commit to longer visits or overnight stays when needed. Dogs thrive on consistency, and I build my availability around making sure they get that When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine. I follow your routines as closely as possible. feeding schedules, walk routes, commands your dog responds to, because familiarity keeps pets calm and settled. I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes before any outdoor time, and I keep a close eye on interactions when multiple dogs are involved to make sure everyone stays comfortable. You’ll get updates and photos so you’re never left wondering.
About: I have experience caring for pets of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I am comfortable handling energetic pets, giving medications when needed, and making sure animals feel loved!! I am currently working part time and mostly making my own schedule. I work close to home allowing me to be able to check in frequently. I have a decent sized back yard and plenty of room inside the home. Your pet will have space to enjoy and get comfortable during their stay.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 536 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Goshen. 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 Goshen 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 Goshen 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 Goshen 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.
