“Kim was great with our dog while we were gone for the weekend. He seemed happy, the house looked great, I received a few photos as well and Kim was quick to respond to messages. Would use Kim again :)”
“Matthew was very responsive as we got to know each other. Arrived promptly when we expected him. He sent a photo of our pup lounging in the sun while we were gone. As a house sitter as well, he left our house in great shape! I hope we have occasion to have him watch our pup and house again soon.”
“Stef wasn't available but was able to set us up with her partner, Lacey. Both of them stay connected and kept us updated on our senior dog. They were both really calm people so I think that helped a lot with my easily agitated dog. Highly recommend!”
“Chris was awesome! Our dogs took right to her and the house looked great! She was comfortable when meeting our boisterous dogs and very punctual. She also sends great pics! We will definitely continue booking with Chris!”
“Seven is the best dog sitter anyone could ask for! When our dog had an emergency and we were in another country, Seven acted with compassion and courage and rapidly got her the care she needed. Their love for pets shines through and makes them a wonderful pet sitter!!”
“Kyli was thoughtful, thorough, reliable and kind. Our animals were calm and well cared for upon our return. She loved our dog but somehow she won over our very shy cat, a cat whisperer for sure. Thank you Kyli!”
“Nicole was amazing and my dogs were so happy. She sent great pics all the time and they were off exploring all the time. Couldn’t be happier and I was never worried about how my dogs were doing. They will want me to go away more I’m thinking!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my dog buddy since I was 15, my cats since I was 14 and I used to take care of my neighbors dog, I use he/him pronouns. I pet sit for members of my family and people around the neighborhood, my hours are flexible I’m able to meet requirements of any family or client. I would always make sure the animal I’m taking care of is fed, hydrated and taken out for the bathroom or walks, I’m fully backgrounded and have very good references.
“Sara did an amazing job watching Sierra and Scarlet! She kept them active with walks and play, and she left our house in great shape. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy sitter.”
“Tricia was my first house sitter experience, and I couldn’t have wished for a better experience. Tricia arrived on-time (although we were gonna leave at 5 in the morning), was super communicative keeping us posted on how the dogs are doing and sending us the most hilarious pictures of them, was super tidy and we found the place exactly the way we left (Tricia even went beyond and washed the guest room bed sheets before leaving). During the stay we also had an incident where a wall planter fell down, and Tricia voluntarily cleaned up everything which was very kind. We will for sure look for future opportunities to have Tricia on board looking after our dogs.”
“Gabrielle overnighted with our King Charles Spaniel last week. This was the second time using her service. Prompt arrival, asked all the right questions and provided text updates - even a photo of a happy dog. Responsible sitter and one I plan use in the future. Thanks!”

“Alex was a wonderful house sitter for my one year old dog Toby! She was so responsive and communicative with me, and she carefully followed directions for his care. She gave Toby so much love and he had such a good time with her. I highly recommend her!!”

“Fawn was super kind and communicative. This was the first time in 10+ years that we have left our animals and the pictures and updates put us at ease. When we got home you could tell the animals were well taken care of. We will for sure be reaching back out if we need help with our animals again.”

Bryan was very pacient, observant and kind with Bella. Bryan would give us updates throughout the day which was great. Definetly recommend Bryan he wont dissapoint!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Harman Heights
Lisa did a wonderful job watching our dog and cat while we were away on vacation! She was completely comfortable with our leash-reactive large breed dog, and he seemed like his usual happy self when we got back. She was also curious about our pets’ schedules and communicative about her own schedule. Highly recommend!
Gabby has done multiple drop-ins and house-sitting for me and my pup, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She’s great with communication, super reliable, and my dog loves hanging out with her. I always come home to a happy pup and a clean house, which makes being away so much easier. I feel totally comfortable having her take care of everything while I’m gone. We’ll definitely be booking with Gabby again!
Seven is the best dog sitter anyone could ask for! When our dog had an emergency and we were in another country, Seven acted with compassion and courage and rapidly got her the care she needed. Their love for pets shines through and makes them a wonderful pet sitter!!

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 Harman Heights 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 Harman Heights 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 Harman Heights 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.
