“Shachel was awesome!! Great communication and our dogs and our house were well taken care of. Shachel watched our two dogs in our home and we came home to an immaculate house and happy dogs after 5 days away. We loved the pictures and knowing they were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her!”
“Sarah was great! She was prompt and courteous and got on well with our pups. She even left us a drawing she made of on of our dogs. Very sweet and would be very happy having her watch our dogs again.”
“Christy did amazing job, my dog was cared for and loved while I was gone. I have camera's in my house and every time I checked in they were cuddling or he was getting attention. My house was left very clean and was exactly how i left it. I would highly recommend her and feel very comfortable using her again.”
“Alex was very attentive to the needs of our pups. The pups seemed to get along with her just fine and enjoyed her company while we were out of town. Will be using Alex again in yhe future”
“Absolutely incredible dog and house sitters! We loved our experience with Kade and Gabby. They sent us regular updates on the dogs multiple times per day. They were also so wonderful in letting us know when a wind storm blew a tree onto our fence. They took extremely good care of our dogs and interacted with them extensively, and they even cleaned the house before they left! Honestly can't say enough good things about them. On top of being highly qualified, they exemplify extreme ownership of what they do!”
“Eva did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our husky and calico. She was very friendly, polite, and cordial in person at our meet and greet and was available via phone/text during our absence for progress updates. We returned to our pets in good nature and our home just like we left it. I would not hesitate to book Eva again for house sitting/pet care! Thank you very much.”
“Kristen treated our dogs and home like her own. We received regular updates that included smiling dog pictures. The dogs got to do their favorite activates, chasing a ball, having a nice brushing and then relaxed in the evening knowing someone was there for them., which of course allowed us to not worry about them. Kristen will be our go to when we have to be out of town! Thank you Kristen! Dave and Crystal”

“Josh (and his partner Rachel) are hands down our favorite petsitters! He took care of our two dogs and cat in our home while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. He kept us updated with photos and we felt so relaxed knowing our pets were in great hands. We returned to a home that was cleaner than we left it, and three happy, loved pets!! We always joke that our pets love Josh and Rachel more than they love us 😂”
“Livvi was very dependable. We first met with her about a month before she would be staying with Sebastian and she came over a second time, just before Christmas. When we came home, everything was just as we left it. If you need consistent updates such as pictures or have specific instructions on care I would recommend that you include this on a list. All of the things that we want can be a bit much to keep track of otherwise ( : We highly recommend Livvi!”
About: For over 5 years, I have lived in a home with five large dogs, gaining extensive experience in caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Growing up on a farm where my parents rescued various animals, I developed a deep understanding of animal care. I am skilled in feeding routines, administering medications, giving baths, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and brushing coats. I treat every pet I care for as a member of my own family, recognizing their unique personalities and ensuring their individual needs are fully met. Whatever your pet requires, I provide it with confidence, compassion, and dedication. I care for your pets as if they were part of my own family. I understand that each pet has unique personalities and specific needs, and I genuinely appreciate those differences. Whatever your pet requires, I am confident in my ability to provide attentive, personalized care. This is my only job currently making me more available then most people! I know how important your pets are, I will treat every dog in my care with kindness, patience, and respect. While staying in my home, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment. I will follow their usual feeding and care routine, closely monitor their well-being, and communicate regularly with their owner so they can feel confident their dog is happy and well cared for.
“Jessica was great! Very communicative and went the extra mile with check out - started the dishwasher, took the trash cans out for pickup, picked up dog poop, and the house was super clean when we came back! The dogs were calm and we felt they did great with house sitting versus boarding them. Will 100% book again very soon! Thank you again, this was a great experience for us.”
“Laura is absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our pups and cat while we were out of town. Kept us updated with pictures which I loved!! Will definitely book again. Highly recommend Laura!”
“Is it possible to give Patti 10 stars?!?! She was the perfect sitter for Daisy. She took excellent care of our mini labradoodle—provided lots of love, care and exercise opportunities.

Thank you, Patti, for the best in-home care experience! 😃 Ana”

Helen did an outstanding job taking care of my 3 dogs! She went above and beyond normal expectations to insure their comfort and happiness, every step of the way. She played ball with them for exercise and even played an outdoor game of hide and seek for treats! She was great at communicating with me about how the dogs were doing and sent lots of pics. She is friendly and professional and was very conscientious about following the care instructions. i would highly recommend Helen and hope to use her again when needed.
Bella was amazing caring for our crazy younger GSP and watching our home. :-) She kept our pup occupied both physically and mentally and sent daily updates while I was away, which helped ease any anxiety about leaving her for a week! She even watered my plants and cleaned the house prior to leaving!! She is thoughtful and kind and we are thankful to have met her and would 100% use her again.

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 Hayden 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 Hayden 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hayden 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.
