“Mara was wonderful with our Goldendoodle. She was very kind and energetic and matched our dogs enthusiasm for play. We could tell right away her love and care for our pet was just like her own.”

About: I used to work at the Human Society of York County! I’ve worked and cared for all types of animals! Working with animals is a life goal of mine! I am currently mostly available any time and any day! Over this summer my schedule is pretty flexible, although I may be out of town some days! I can stay for a while and play with pets or stay overnight if needed. However you need your pets cared for will be more than doable!
About: I live in a I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. From learning their quirky habits to keeping their routines steady, I treat every furry guest like my own. I focus on creating a calm, cozy, and genuinely loving environment, so your pet feels safe, understood, and totally at ease. With consistent communication, personalised care, and a whole lot of heart, I make sure your pet’s stay isn’t just stress-free—it’s something they actually enjoy. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine uninterrupted. I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.
About: Grown up around dogs all my life as well as owning a dog for the past 5 years. Also bilingual if for Spanish speaking households! I am a full time college student but on weekends as well as holidays I am more than willing to help you out with whatever you need! At home I feed, walk, bath, play, pet, and cuddle my own pet. All things that I expect to do for your pet as well as any other need you may have!
“Christopher was a great sitter for our 4 month old lab, Hootie! He sent pictures and updates for us while we were away. When we watched our pet cam to check on our pup after he had left, Hootie was fast asleep- which never happens as he has some separation anxiety. We could tell that he had a great time and that Christopher took the time to have play time along with a structured visit! Thanks again!”

“Chloe was absolutely amazing! She came to my house to watch my dog for the week and was so attentive, loving, and respectful of our home. She loved on our boy making him feel right at home. Her communication was more than I could have asked for- I received updated and photos all day long. I will definitely be using Chloe for all future needs!”

“Kristen made me feel super at easy for Sauce's first sitter experience! She was on time, comfortable with Sauce, followed his typical routine, and knowledgable. She sent photos and videos, let me know what the two of them were up to, and gave updates on potty breaks and when she was leaving. Definitely reaching back out to her for future pup sitting! Thank you :)”

“India is the absolute best! Extremely polite, considerate and our dog loved hanging with her! Her experience with animals made the experience stress-free! Tons of walks, treats, and belly rubs. Will definitely be re-booking!”


About: I’ve pet sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years. I used to pet sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t pet sit for her anymore. I had so much fun, and I love spending time and caring for every animal. I look forward to meeting your amazing pets, and watching over them for you! I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of free time to check in and care for your pets. Im free the whole 7 days of the week :) I have 5 furry babies myself, 2 big dog fenced in the backyard and 3 kitties in the house, I also have 3 hermit crabs that I take care of. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of pets even a pig :)

About: I have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I'm experienced with younger and older animals as well as giving medicines and other. I'm currently a college student and don't work so I have plenty of time to play with pups / kitties and come by for feedings and other. When pet sitting I typically will go by 2 to 3 times a day for feeding and play. I'm always careful around animals especially when they don't know me, I know some can take some time to warm up! I can do walks, play in house, or a backyard if allowed, and other general care.
“Emily was a LIFE SAVER to us and our animals! She over delivered and communicated exceptionally well. We had an emergency situation and Emily came through for us in a way that ensured us our animals were in safe hands which allowed us to relax while we were out of town. Top notch all the way!”

“Christina was able to help me on very short notice and stayed at my home for an entire week. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely at ease knowing my animals and home were in such capable hands. She was excellent about sending photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I returned home, the house was spotless, and all of my animals were happy, healthy, and well cared for. One of the biggest challenges for me is finding someone who is experienced with a variety of animals—not just cats and dogs, but also goats, chickens, guinea fowl, and geese. Christina handled all of them with confidence and care. She is incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I am beyond happy with her services and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets and home as if they were her own, Christina is the one! ❤️🐾🐐🐓🪿”

About: Hey there thank you for considering me to meet your furry friend. First off I love animals, dogs have been in my life forever I've taking care of them professionally for the last 10 years. I was a dog daycare Kennel manager for 8 years. I have also had dogs stay overnight at my house or watched dogs at peoples houses multiple times. I feel comfortable around any situation with dogs and feel confident I can give your pup the best TLC while you are away. I am not a certified trainer but would always be open to do some training and can do bath and nails as well. I would love the chance to get to spend time with your pup. 1 have a 7 year old pit/staffy terrier that will be with me at all times. Her name is Peach and she has been to daycare with me since the day I got her which was 5 and a half years ago. She is a sweetheart I live in a townhouse but have plenty of resources for exercise. Please feel free to ask me any questions :) I Have a very flexible schedule. So I can do whatever is needed for your fur baby! My dog is going thru chemotherapy on Tuesdays so that is really the only thing I have going on. I live in a 2 story townhouse it has small back yard good for potty breaks it's not fenced in tho so would have on a leash. Can take for multiple walks daily. Also if you would like dog park activities have one close could do that as well.

FAQs for House Sitting - Guthries
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 1,474 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Guthries. 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 Guthries 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 Guthries 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 Guthries 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.
