“Anna was wonderful! She was very accommodating of my busy schedule to get a meet and greet in virtually before her stay with my pets, and was available on short notice in this instance. She sent pics and updates, and my pets were happy and healthy upon my return! Would 100% rebook.”
“Isabella is truly amazing. She kept us updated with pictures and videos ever step of the way. Our dogs are picky but not with Isabella. An we believe they fully enjoyed their time with her. We will be rebooking with her again soon. Isabella was true a blessing to find. Would highly recommend!”
“Simply a blessing. Naee’ sat our boys (one is a puppy) for 5 days. We were even having work done in the backyard which made the stay more challenging. She sent pictures and it was extremely easy to communicate with her. Upon our return home, we could tell our boys were not stressed and the pups and the house were treated with care. We sincerely appreciate having someone we can trust with our fur babies and our home. She’ll definitely be the first we call when we’re planning to be away. She’s awesome. Thanks so much, Naee’!!!”
About: Tons of animal experience, have been pet sitting since around the age of 13 for family and friends! Happy to provide references to make you know your pet is getting the best care! I currently am PRN for the state hospital so get to pick my own schedule! That being said I have plenty of time to care for your animals! I have a huge yard and large apartment with plenty of space to make your animals feel comfortable and welcomed while staying in my home!
“Morgan was so sweet with our pups! She came to meet them and us ahead of our trip so we could all feel confident in the situation. She sent lots of photos and made sure they had plenty of play time while we were away.”
About: I have had a dog or cat (or multiple!) in my home since I was a small child. I love to walk and experience nature through a dogs eyes, as well as rest and love on cats in the comfort of the indoors. My schedule is quite variable at the moment, which leaves me free for last minute visits with your fluffy friends! I am almost always free in the evenings if your pet needs someone to serve their dinner 🍽️ I aim to give your lovely four legged friend(s) the most compassionate care possible. Loving on your pets gives me great joy and makes my day!
About: Hi! I’m a huuuuuuge animal lover, especially dogs. I have had dogs my entire life and am very accustomed to all kinds of different doggy personalities (and love em all!) I do respect boundaries though, so if (for example) you do not want you doggie eating table scraps I will give them none at all. If you don’t mind, great, too! I have experience caring for a variety of animals; including treating wounds, feeding, basic grooming, walks and basic puppy training (going potty, sit etc) Message me! i love animals so i can make time for this “side hustle” any time! i have an open and / or flexible schedule most days vigilante supervision, attention to owners instructions, keeping animals either fenced or in a harness. being mindful of some of the risks involved in certain scenarios.
“Michelle did an excellent job caring for my spoiled dog for several overnights. She communicated before the starting date and came to meet him and learn about his needs and routine. During her time with him she sent pictures and communicated with me several times a day. She was so good and kind to him he may not want me back!! :)”
“We were originally going to board our dogs during our destination wedding, but I got nervous last minute. Mackenzie saved the day for us. Our dogs loved her and they got to stay home with their routines instead of being anxious somewhere new. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend 💓”
“Brianna was awesome! I was worried leaving all my babies for the first time, but she took great care of them. Great communicator, sent me some cute pics and reliable! Would 100% recommend!”
About: I have pet sit all over and bonded with so many animals. I love caring for them and making sure they feel loved and safe! I work full time 7-3 Monday to Friday but I am able to take breaks throughout the day where I can check on the pets! I am available all nights and weekends I can feed, let out, and provide care for your pet within your home! Just let me know what you need from me and I will be there!
About: My husband, Jesse, and I love our dogs like family and we will love yours like family as well. We are the trusted home of many family members’ pets. We know it can be difficult to find good care for your dogs while you are away, and would love to be their home away from home. We have 2 dogs who currently experience seizures so we have some experience in special care, and know the importance of providing the extra care and attention to ensure a safe and healthy dog. We also have a wonderful fenced in backyard with plenty of room for your pet to stretch their legs and can provide a 30 min on leash neighborhood walk as well. We do crate at nighttime for the safety of the dogs. Due to work schedule, responsibilities at home (children and pets), multiple Rover requests with same times, I do have a 30-60 min window on drop in times but we will attempt to stick as closely to the requested time as possible. We do offer 15 min drop ins for a reduced price- just ask us about it! We have a large fenced in backyard and 3 dogs who can keep your puppy company. We do have small children who love pets so we would like to host dogs who do well with kiddos.
“Donna was great! She replied promptly to text and emails. Took the time for a meet up even though it was only a one-night booking. Donna was flexible and easy to work with. Our dogs, Rufus and Star would love to have her for another sleepover. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and currently care for my own pets, including a Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether that’s high energy playtime, slow walks for senior dogs, sticking to feeding and medication schedules, or simply giving them extra attention and comfort while their owners are away. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive to details so pet parents can feel confident their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m also comfortable with basic puppy routines, reinforcing good habits, and providing calm, gentle care for anxious or older pets. My goal is always to make pets feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM–4:30 PM, but I do have an hour lunch break each day. For pets local to the Jefferson City area, I’m often available during lunch for potty breaks, walks, feeding, medication, check-ins, or just some extra love and attention during the day. Outside of work hours, I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care depending on availability. I always do my best to keep pets on their normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I do my best to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, informed, and at ease. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout each stay or visit. 🏡 Boarding your pet: I do have two friendly and playful dogs of my own — a Great Dane and a Goldendoodle — along with 3 cats that mostly keep to themselves. Because of this, I always like to make sure personalities and temperaments are a good fit for everyone’s safety and comfort. I also completely understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals, and that’s okay! I have a partially finished basement that allows pets to be safely separated if needed while still being comfortable and cared for. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where your pet feels at home. 🐾 Pet sitting and drop-in visits in your home: I know many pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. 🚶♀️ Dog walks: Safety is always my biggest priority during walks. I pay close attention to leash security, surroundings, weather conditions, and your dog’s comfort level to make sure they have a safe, enjoyable, and enriching walk every tim

FAQs for House Sitting - Guthrie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 218 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Guthrie. 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 Guthrie 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 Guthrie 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 Guthrie 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.

- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
