About: What sets me apart is that I’m patient, reliable, and focused on making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality so they feel safe while their owner is away. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a calmer environment, medication reminders, or extra care. I am going to school to be a dental hygienist. Looking for a side job instead of something full time so I can focus more on school while still making money. I will be home a lot and I love having the company I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide water, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I also follow any special instructions carefully and make sure pets feel loved and stress free while their owners are away.
About: I grew up on a farm, so I was raised around animals. I volunteer at a wildlife rescue in Blue Springs, Missouri. I partner with them to transport and foster any wildlife in need. I'm a plant-based eater, I love animals so much I will not even eat them. I risk my own life to save animals. So when I say I'm an animal lover I absolutely mean that 100%. I have six cats, one Dog, four Snakes, one Bearded Dragon, one Tarantula, 2 fish, 2 mice and a disabled footless Rooster as pets. They mean the world to me. I would go without before they would. Growing up my parents were AKC dog breeders . We had Beagles, Basset Hounds, Labradors and Pomeranians. So I've had my fair share of helping deliver babies. I also did Wildlife removal from homes. I would exclude or trap and relocate any Wildlife that was invading homes. Never kill any. I would educate people on the importance of Wildlife and why they are here. I have taken my animals to schools to do educational programs to teach the children to love all animals. I have taken my animals to educational programs in the summer at kids summer camps in Savannah, Missouri. Because I work with Wildlife I do have my rabies vaccination. I have always pet sit for my friends and family when they are out of town and local farmers when they are needing help. I love nature going on walks and being outside is my favorite. I'm experienced in giving oral medications and shots. I currently work full time but in able to leave at any given time to care for the pets. This includes going for walks, playing in the yard, staying the night, staying for feedings and giving medications. I live in the country with a big barn. I do have a fenced run where a dog could stay outside. I am able to crate your dog in my home at night and let him/her run free when I am home.
About: Lifetime of experience around companion and hunting dogs. Horse trainer. Extensive large animal and small animal experience, including chickens. Some experience assisting a wildlife rehabber. Current dog and cat mom. I work Monday-Friday day shift. Available for evening walks or potty sessions during the week. Available on weekends for pet sitting, walking, and potty breaks. I do not offer care in my home, but am a responsible respectful adult who can care for your babies in their home. I have a lifetime of various animal care experiences, and am equipped to keep your babies safe.
“Sydney was a wonderful house/pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. I was very comfortable knowing our pets were well taken care of and she took better care of our home than we do 😂”
“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”
“Daniel was fantastic! He took amazing care of both our dogs, cats, and house. It was the most stress free experience I’ve ever had on vacation. He sent daily updates and photos, tidied up the home, and followed our dog’s routine making it a seamless transition. Our rescue who struggles to be around new people warmed up to him quickly. I highly recommend Daniel! We will definitely be using him again for any future trips.”
“Heidi and Evelyn were absolutely wonderful. Have any hesitations on using rover and leaving home this is a great team to book. We got pictures and updates daily. We have multiple animals , chickens , pigs , goats all handled with care. We would and will absolutely use these two again. My dogs are probably hoping they just pop in for a visit😁”
About: Since I was born I have been involved with animals. We’ve had birds, dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and wildlife. I’ve taken care of some of the coolest animals and it’s a huge passion of mine! I’m currently working as a vet tech at a non profit vet clinic/animal rescue so working with animals is a huge passion of mine. I’m starting school in the fall to get my prerequisites done and then hopefully onto vet school! I love my pets so I will love yours just as much and treat them as my own. I’ve been around animals since I was born and am always trying to rescue/help some kind of animal!
“Ali was great! Very attentive and follows instructions. Most of all she was able to work with our very timid dog. Good communication throughout. Will be using here again for sure! She's a sweetheart.”
“Olivia was absolutely fantastic while we were on a family vacation! She took care of Stevie and loved her as her own while we were gone. She also took great care of our house and left it cleaner than when we left for vacation. We will absolutely book services again with Olivia and highly recommend her.”

About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help.

I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.

I had an English bulldog for 11 years and I had another dog that is a mix of a lot of breeds that is now 7. I now have my own dog named Obi who is a poodle and is 9 months old. I have enjoyed helping train and care for all of them. I currently work part time doing odd jobs so I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop in visits plus do house sittings.

About: I was always around a dog as a child and grew up knowing what they wanted, when to go outside, when to feed them and make sure they were played with. They can be unbelievable friends and I think they keep our lives actively expanding. I like to work part time and do the dog sitting when ever it's needed. It can be a random cases and I'm more welcoming to act on immediate services needed. I male sure the pet doesn't get into anything. For example: The trash can, anything chemical on the floor and make sure before they come over...if dog is being watched from my home. I make sure to clean up vacuum and make sure it's an very clean environment. Only feed them what pet owners advise me to give their dogs.
About: I’m an active adventurous person ready to play with the dogs or take them on walks. I have helped family, friends and neighbors watch their dogs, whether it be just a check in or a week at a time! I work as a phlebotomist in my other times, help family and create crafts for my page! Seeing as I have a cat of my own, I make sure to put her into my daily schedule and make time for her to play with her and her as well as make sure her litter stays clean and her food and water bowl stay full! My cat is an indoor cat. Although she is aloof, she still loves to come cuddle and I always make sure that her food and water bowls are full, her litter is clean and her medicine is taken
About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 621 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gower. 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 Gower 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 Gower 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 Gower 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.

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.
