“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!”
“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!”
“Jennifer stayed at our house for 10 days and was fantastic with our cat, dog, guinea pig, and rats. She sent photos every day of my pets snuggling in bed with her or sitting out on the back porch drinking coffee. I am very picky about who is allowed to watch my pet children, and Jennifer is absolutely amazing.”
About: Hi! I’m Maya, a veterinary professional with experience in emergency medicine, outreach clinics, and general practice. I’ve worked hands-on with animals providing medical care and to pets and support for their owners. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or special attention. I can recognize early signs of illness, respond calmly in emergencies, and ensure your pet is safe and cared for. I also tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. Pet care fits very well into my schedule. I have a flexible routine and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekends. I’m reliable, punctual, and able to adjust my availability to meet client needs. I provide attentive, individualized care based on each pet’s needs and routine. In client homes, I maintain their normal schedule, ensure a clean and safe environment, and provide enrichment, exercise, and affection. With my veterinary background, I monitor for any health or behavioral changes and communicate updates clearly with owners.
“Rhianna did a wonderful job watching our kitty, Onyx, while we were away for the weekend. She left the house tidy and send us updates on how they were getting along. Onyx was happy and healthy when we returned.”
“Every time I have asked Arielle to watch Holly she has been lovely, and gone above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and make it a pleasant experience. She checked in with me to make sure I got home safe after my flight, and sent many updates and photos while I was gone. Holly absolutely adores her, and I could bot ask for a better sitter. Thank you for once again making my trip stress-free and for taking such amazing care of my girl ❤️”

“We like Matthew and were very pleased with the care he provided for our 2 dogs and our home while we were traveling out of the country for 3 weeks. Our dogs love him and he was always very understanding of their unique personalities, behaviors & preferences. He provided updates with photos throughout our time away and was very responsive to our messages as we checked in on our dogs, despite the 8 hour time difference between Washington State and the United Kingdom. We would gladly trust him with our dogs & our home again in the future!”

About: I have had pets for as long as I remember! From cats, to dogs to reptiles and almost everything in between. I currently have 2 dogs- one pug and one red heeler who are the highlight of days. I'm familiar with having to provide supplements and medications on a set schedule, and enjoy taking my pups for long walks to let them sniff around to their hearts content. I currently work remotely Monday- Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. I have limited morning availability but the afternoons and evenings I have open availability I do have a smaller fully fenced in yard that is over 6 feet in height. I live in a neighborhood that is great for walks as traffic is very limited!
About: My 32 years' experience with pet care began at the early age of six, when my family and I took our Rottweiler puppy, Baron to weekly training classes for behavior, communication, personal and home protection. He was my best friend and amazing babysitter to my 2yo. sister (Read: 'Good Dog Carl'). And ever since then I've owned 4 dogs and a kitty before pursuing an education in the vet field. I bring several years of professional veterinary experience to pet care, including work as a Veterinary Assistant in a specialty oncology practice. I’m Fear Free Certified and comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors and animals with medical needs or medication routines. My veterinary background taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, comfort, and overall well-being, while staying calm and attentive when a pet needs extra support. Just as importantly, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to provide dependable, patient, and compassionate care that helps your pet feel safe and gives you confidence while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I tailor each day around the individual pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and rest. I also make a point of observing behavior, appetite, energy level, and comfort so I can notice if anything seems out of the ordinary. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of consistent attention throughout the day. I tailor each visit or stay around the pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and rest. For overnight stays, I’m happy to follow the household schedule as closely as possible so your pet’s day feels familiar and predictable. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing with a favorite toy, or just relaxing together, my goal is to make sure your pet gets the attention, activity, and companionship they’re accustomed to while you’re away. I believe the safest and least stressful care starts with respecting each pet’s normal routine, personality, and environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established feeding, walking, medication, potty, sleeping, and household routines as closely as possible. My veterinary background has made me very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy level, and comfort. I’m Fear Free Certified and comfortable working patiently with pets who may be anxious, shy, senior, or need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. For walks and outings, I prioritize secure leashing, safe handling, awareness of surroundings, and avoiding unnecessary risks or interactions. During overnight stays and pet-sitting visits, I also pay close attention to doors, gates, medications, food restrictions, and any household instructions provided by the owner. If an unexpected medical situation were to occur, I’m comfortable staying calm, assessing the situation, contacting the owner and veterinary provider, and safely handling and transporting a pet for emergency care if necessary. Above all, I want owners to feel confident that their pet, home, and established routine will be treated with care and respect.
About: I am a lifelong cat and dog lover, currently the much fur-covered owner of two black cats who were trained to high five for their daily treats. I have volunteered at our local shelter in the past, work well with both large and small dogs. I believe in positive reinforcement methods and a calm, patient presence, allowing animals to approach me at their own pace. I raised my current set of cats from about 6-weeks old, and have some experience with injections and administering oral meds. If your pet will need medication, I'll ask you to demonstrate your method and leave written instructions. I am a graphic design contractor working remotely, which allows a great deal of flexibility when it comes to locations, scheduling, and the needs of your pets. I try to keep a general 7am-3pm schedule for work, but my tasks are usually flexible, which allows me to adjust free time to allow for walks, exercise, or feeding schedules. If you entrust me with the care of your pets and residence, I will request written pet care guides for your animals so I can maintain their routines and keep them as comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I willl have my phone handy at all times for communication, and will happily snap photos of your pets every day, especially if they are doing something silly.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Granite Falls
Julie was wonderful with Boba and we appreciate her so much for staying over the holidays even with the threat of power outages. She sent updates and adorable photos while we were away and I felt that I didn’t need to worry at all about him while we were in Virginia. Thank you again Julie!
Moxxy was an amazing sitter to work with. She cared for Koda so well — feeding him, taking him on walks, and sending me videos and updates the whole time. She has such a sweet spirit and is a natural storyteller, which I really loved. I’ll be honest, I was a little hesitant at first since she was new to Rover, but I’m so grateful I chose her. I would trust her with Koda’s care again without hesitation! Thank you so much, Moxxy, for taking such great care of my boy! 💙

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 Granite Falls 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 Granite Falls 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 Granite Falls 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
