“This was my second time having Victoria stay with my pup. She does a great job of loving and caring for Bug. She is punctual, kind, and loves animals. I highly recommend her!”
“We were so grateful to have Haven watching our puppy and cat while we were away! I was nervous about leaving the puppy for the first time just because he is a puppy and is a handful—i.e., more work than your average trained dog—and I didn't want him to be a problem for anyone. Once we found Haven, I felt much more comfortable about leaving, and the pets seemed to do great while we were away. I think our puppy is missing her now that we're back!”
“We had a family emergency and Nickolas responded immediately and put us at ease under very short notice. He went above and beyond to make sure our pets were well cared for while we were gone. He sent us photos and genuinely cared for our animals and it gave us huge peace of mind in a difficult situation. We are so thankful.”
“Reid took amazing care of Aiko tending to her every need and introducing her to new and fun situations and activities. She’s the same happy girl I left only with more confidence and I’m so grateful for the time and love he gave her. He also housesat for me in Seeley Lake, over an hour away from his home. I know that was a huge ask and Reid actually thanked me for letting him stay here! In a nutshell, Reid is a great guy who took excellent care of both my home and my best buddy and I couldn’t recommend him more highly!”
About: I’ve been studying animal behavior for two years, and I’m passionate about loving and caring for pets as if they were my own. I have a service dog named Buddy, who is incredibly affectionate and enjoys making friends with animals. I’m committed to teaching well-being behaviors in my home to ensure the safety and comfort of my pets. Additionally, I volunteer at shelters to assist in finding and supporting suitable placements for enrichment activities. I hold certifications in pet first aid and dog training, which further enhance my expertise in caring for animals. I am available to schedule clients throughout the week and can work with flexible timing to fit appointments into my day. Since I work part-time, I have availability seven days a week, which allows me to accommodate a variety of schedules. To ensure smooth planning and avoid any last-minute changes, I kindly request a confirmation of all appointments by 2:00 PM the day prior. I will be alone at home so visits will be solo. I’m using enrichment tools and techniques to keep your pet happy and healthy. I have a fenced yard with everything your pet needs. There are plenty of spots for them to relax and play. I’ll be watching over your pets, and I use Kongs, treats, and toys to ensure their safety and well-being. I also do health checks and training to keep them in top shape.
About: Hello! I’ve been around animals my whole life! My family and I currently have 6 dogs and 2 cats, pigs and 2 horses I’m really active so my dogs are to. I’m currently working full time but would love to do stuff after and before work or dog sit overnight! I’ll make any schedule work for the animals. I’ll check for fenced yard, always make sure trash will be sealed or where the animal can’t get to it and make sure all the doors are shut and locked!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Grantsdale 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 Grantsdale 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 Grantsdale 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
