“I can’t thank Jordynn enough for the great care of my pups who have vastly different personalities. One sweet girl Nina who never wants to leave your side and could play all day and then my shy old man Dewey. But Dewey warmed up to her so quickly and I could tell Jordynn truly cares about animals. She was courteous, timely and thoughtfully communicative. Even though I was going to be without cell service during part of my time away I always returned to pics and updates. I look forward to booking with her again.”
“Autumn was wonderful. Pax loved her immediately, it’s how she interacts with him that made him feel comfortable and safe in the first second of meeting. Autumn is very quick to respond and we love the updates and pictures.”
“Cara was so considerate and amazing when our original sitter cancelled last minute. I really appreciate it - she went above and beyond for us and Luna. Thank you and we’d love to book again!”
“Brian stayed with Leeroy Bku for his second time recently and we really appreciate him and his attention to detail. Brian has been great staying at our house with Leeroy and has even helped us water plants and also with other additional small requests. You can tell he’s a true dog lover and has helped Leeroy manage some allergy/skin irritations while we were out. Thanks Brian!”
“Jennifer is an amazing, caring and thoughtful pet sitter. She’s great at communicating and I felt very at ease with her watching my dog and cat. Cannot recommend enough.”
“Ashanta was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures of Arthur and kept me informed of things at all times. I have a senior dog and worry a lot, but did not worry at all and was able to concentrate on my work. She is very responsible and conscientious too!”
“This was our first time using Rover and our first experience with an in‑home overnight sitter, and Brian delivered exceptional service. His communication was consistent and clear, he was reliable and he arrived exactly as scheduled. We returned to two well‑cared‑for dogs and a home exactly as we left it. Brian set a high standard for our first experience, and we would confidently book with him again.”
“We are so happy with the loving care ty got. We booked last minute and they were so accommodating and great with the cat and provided updates and photos to make us feel at ease”
“Dennis was a fantastic sitter. Excellent and regular communication, and he demonstrated real care for our dogs. He was flexible and easy to work with, and the dogs loved him. We will definitely use Dennis again!”
“Alyssa stayed with my needy little poodle mix and also my son’s active golden retriever for a long weekend. Both dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we came on and the house was clean and tidy. I would totally have her come again!”
“Mandy did an excellent job watching our Doberman! Took great care of him, was responsible, responsive and sent plenty of fun updates from the house and from the dog park! Would recommend to anyone.”
About: Grew up surrounded by cats, dogs, and other animals. Passionate about caring for pets, with years of hands-on experience raising and nurturing them, I would love to come and help you out! I'm currently working on earning my GED while also looking for a part-time job to build experience and stay productive. Outside of my studies, I take care of three cats, They're a big part of my daily routine—I spend time feeding them, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get enough play and attention. Caring for them has helped me become more responsible, patient, and good at managing my time. I’m ready to take those skills into a part-time role and learn even more along the way. When caring for a dog and cat in a client’s home, follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter or waste, offer attention, and ensure a safe, clean environment daily. As well as daily walks and any special instructions from clients!

“Thank you so much for taking such sweet care of our fur babies! Our little ChiChi was diagnosed with Addisons just the week before and was very ill. We came home to a very happy boy who had gained nearly all 9 pounds of his weight loss back! Thank you!!!”
“I felt like I left my sweet, anxious, and dog reactive gal, Magpie in safe hands with ML. He has a calm presence and was communicative during our trip. He left our house in great shape and I could tell when I got home that Magpie was relaxed and happy, which is always a great sign to me! I would definitely recommend him for house/dog sitting needs, and hope to book with him again in the future!”
About: Hi! I look forward to caring for you furry family! I grew up with pets and have dogs and cats for family and friends for years. But I also know each individual pet has its own personality and needs, so I tailor my care to your instructions. I currently have a dog of my own, Pepper. If you choose to board with us, I'd recommend a meet and greet beforehand. I have an apartment with a large enclosed courtyard that is pet friendly for them to safely play. I have a mostly remote job, so I can watch your pet full time. I also have a dog of my own that share with my partner. So I am accustomed to the schedule of dogs. Your pets safety is my number one priority. When we discuss the their care, I will ask about triggers, allergies, medications, and inquire if there is any other information I should know about.
“Terry was super communicative and respectful to my home and my two cats. He was also good about following up on schedules and leaving everything very clean. Would absolutely book Terry again!”
“Amber did a great job housesitting for me and taking care of my two cats. She was observant and mindful of the environment, allowed the cats to be comfortable at their own pace, and won them both over! She sent pictures and updates and was a great communicator. Thanks Amber!”

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 Harper 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 Harper 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 Harper 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.
