“We had a great first experience with Zach! He stayed at our home with our two older, somewhat needy girls, and they were immediately comfortable and at ease with him. It’s obvious he’s very experienced and comfortable with dogs. He was timely, did a meet and greet beforehand, and sent us plenty of photos, videos, and updates throughout our time away, which we really appreciated. He was also very respectful of our home and left everything exactly as we had left it. Most importantly, the girls were happy and well cared for when we got home. Zach is genuinely nice, reliable, and someone we felt comfortable trusting with both our dogs and our home. We’ll absolutely use him again!”
“I recommend Dani to take care of your fur babies, I was very nervous leaving my fur baby and she took such good care of him as if he was her own. We will definitely use her again.”
“Jaden went above and beyond to care for our 2 dogs and cat for an entire week! We all felt comfortable and safe from the first meeting and throughout the week. Excellent communication and much appreciated help!”
About: I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets! I’m available Monday through Saturday, anytime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and daily routine. I believe every pet deserves plenty of love, attention, and enrichment! I can provide companionship, playtime, mental stimulation, and affection in your home. I’m also happy to help with walks, feeding, fresh water, and keeping your pets comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll do my best to maintain their usual routines so they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have experience with both dogs and cats. Family members and friends have trusted me to care for their pets, including walking, feeding, providing fresh water, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I’m comfortable caring for animals of different sizes and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, leisurely walks, or simply having someone nearby for company and cuddles, I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of many animals through out my life and i’ve had them ever since I was 5 so I am confident in knowing how to take care of someone else’s pets and the value of how important it is. I have many skills and experience with animals. I love being an asset to my community and love to make a difference. I am a Vet Tech and I’m a sitter on the side. I am currently in school for Vet Tech through YTI and I am remote, so I have plenty of time to take care of lovely animals, I work at a vet three days a week as a vet assistant! I have 5 dogs and 3 cats but they are very friendly and would love to play with a new furry friend, my pets are very spoiled so other pets will get the very same treatment! I love taking dogs for walks and enjoy playing with animals and giving them the attention they desire. I will also travel if your fur baby needs a sitter. I have a trail behind my house in the woods where my dogs love to walk, and i’m sure your dog would too! I love playing with cats, they are lovely purring friends. I don’t cage my dogs but if your fur baby needs crated I already have crates.
About: My partner and I both love hanging out and taking care of people’s pets, so we’ve decided to do it together. We both grew up with dogs and cats respectively, and overall, just love animals. We’d be more than happy to check in on your per, take them for a walk and make sure that they don’t feel alone while you have to be out. We have three cats of our own; one of them has allergies that we perform shots on her for. If your pet has such needs, we have experience in that department! I work from home two weeks of the month currently and will be expecting to be fully home by February. During those weeks, I can come anytime of day but the other two weeks, I’ll be available Thursday-Sunday. I’ll confirm that your pet is healthy and ensure that they’re comfortable with my presence / actions. I’ll also follow all instructions provided to me and share updates after each visit.
About: I am available all day every week and weekend. I am a very big dog lover and am kind hearted. I enjoy being outside and love being with furry friends. I am recently unemployed. I have had a lot of experience with dogs and grew up with multiple puppies. I lost a large amount of weight in Highschool from walking with my family dog twice everyday, throughout the summer and fall seasons. I believe greatly that animals need to be exercised everyday in order to live a full and happy life. With a willing to travel far distances and the ability to work with all breeds I hope to be a good choice for anyone who needs a dog sitter or dog walker. Thank you.
“We cannot recommend Jyllian enough. We have two big dogs and one is very quirky and anxious at times. We’ve never left them with a stranger before they always travel with us. Jyllian was wonderful with our boys, went above and beyond and we could tell from the pictures she shared every day that they were at ease and very comfortable with her already. She was wonderful, trustworthy, dependable, and treated them like her own - all things someone hopes for in a great pet sitter. We are so glad we found her and our boys have a new best friend!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all kinds and know firsthand the love and attention they need. From my first dog, Francis—a loyal Cocker Spaniel/Beagle mix who was part of the family for 16 years—to Olivia, a playful Boxer mix who brought joy for 9 years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with different personalities and health needs. Now, I’m lucky to share my life with Lulu, a 3-year-old Staffy and Pitbull mix. I treat every dog with the same love and care I give my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved. Taking care of pets is just part of my everyday life. I make sure there’s time for walks, play, meals, and plenty of love every day. I’m used to paying attention to what each dog needs—whether it’s some extra energy to burn or just some chill cuddle time. Basically, I fit pet care into my routine because I genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs and making sure they’re happy. I live in a quiet apartment with my dog Lulu, which provides a calm and safe environment for pets. I’m also close to several parks with plenty of space for walks and playtime, so your fur baby will get lots of exercise and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or during in-home visits, I always make sure water is available and follow feeding routines tailored to your dog’s needs. I take pride in giving attentive walks, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love to keep your dog happy and comfortable while you’re away.
About: People have always told me that I am comparable caring even to pets. They deserve every bit of kindness just like people! A safe and reliable environment at your home! I am able to walk and feed the animals before I go to work and after I come home. As well as having off on Monday& Tuesdays. I can walk and feed your pets in the morning, throughout the day when I’m off I can show them the attention and love they need. I will make sure they always have fresh food&water. As well as making them feel at home when They are away!
About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. I’m currently in college, I’ve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, I’m just trying to find better things for myself. Reach out anytime ☺️ I have open availability so pretty much let me know what you’re looking for, if you want me to just stay at yours or even if you just want me to pop in and out from time to time! I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot
About: I have done dog-sitting for family friends and others for years, including care for cats and dogs with medical issues. I also have my own dog who I am the sole caretaker of. I am a college student and intern for my healthcare program with plenty of flexibility throughout the week, weekends, and even overnights if needed ! I offer services to take your animals out on walks or do pop-in visits! I currently do not offer any pet-sitting services involving bringing them back to my home.
“Barbara took care of my senior dog while I camped overnight. My pup gets a little stressed when I’m away. I can tell that Barbara took great care of her because she wasn’t anxious when I got home, just happy! She was very friendly and you can tell she really cares for animals. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I’ve have taken care of dogs since I was little. I currently own a dog of my own. I’m good with all kinds of dogs, rescues especially. In my free time I volunteer at the animal shelter to give them the love they unfortunately don’t receive. I have an easy and flexible schedule. I’m typically available to check in with your pets every 2-4 hours during the weekends, and every 4-6 hours during the weekdays. I can crate your animal based on your preference. I do not have a fenced in yard, however I take my dog on a trail everyday to make sure he gets all the exercise he needs. I can handle large and extra large dogs even ones that pull on a leash.
“This is a five star human being!!! my travels required me to leave before Dani was to arrive. There was some minor chaos when she arrived being a new venue and canine companion. Because I was traveling by air, I did not get to speak to her until after the fact… when we finally connected, she explained in full detail everything that transpired and that it had been handled and her and Rocky were enjoying a TV program!!! Dani is an extremely responsible, capable friend, friendly assistant! Rocky has already put in a request for her return !!!! Our home was in better organization than when I left!! Extremely awesome experience!!!”
“Christine was truly a joy to have and we can not wait to have her back! She was wonderful with Kiera. She even fixed my curtain rod while I was out! This is the "It" girl for dogs :)”
“Serena is AMAZING!!! She watched our 2 dogs while we went on a week long vacation. We have a 15 and 5 year old dog and are very protective over them, especially the 15 year old. It’s been hard to find the right person to watch after our babies and thus hard to go away and trust that they will be taken care of the way we do when we are home. Serena exceeded our expectations!! She is highly reliable and communicative and made being away as pain free as possible. She updated me multiple times a day and sent daily pictures. She was with them the whole time and let me know when she was leaving (which was only once) and when she got back. She went above and beyond! She also took care of our reptiles water for the week. Before we even got home, she had taken out garbages and cleaned as if she was never even here which was so thoughtful and we didn’t even have to ask. Our girls love her and can’t wait for their next visit. I cannot recommend Serena enough!”
“I cannot recommend Syd highly enough! She stayed at my home for two weeks while I was away and took amazing care of my Leo. From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She kept me updated, gave Leo plenty of love, attention and care, and treated him like he was her own. Not only did she take wonderful care of Leo, but she also looked after the fish, watered my plants, and kept my house in great shape. Coming home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home was such a relief. She went above and beyond in every way, and I would absolutely book her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring, Syd is the one!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Harper Tavern
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 925 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harper Tavern. 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 Harper Tavern 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 Tavern 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 Tavern 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 with handling special pet needs in Harper Tavern. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
