About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about 10 years and currently own a Great Dane, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and providing daily care for pets. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their dogs while they are away, and I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and on their normal routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide loving, dependable care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive pet care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I will make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will work to maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care requirements. I am attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. As a dog owner myself, I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone else and will provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From raising my own dogs—from playful puppies to gentle seniors—to dog sitting for friends and family, I’ve experienced every stage of a dog’s life and the love that comes with it. Over the years, I’ve helped with everything from leash and potty training to providing comfort and care when a pup wasn’t feeling their best. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, always focused on creating a safe and happy environment where dogs can relax and just be themselves. Animals seem to sense my energy and often gravitate toward me, and I truly believe they know when someone understands them. I’m most centered when I’m around dogs, and I love giving back the same joy and unconditional love they bring into the world. These days, I’m lucky to share my time with a 6-year-old Goldendoodle, a 10-year-old Maltese, two playful goats, and a flock of chickens—each one reminding me how rewarding it is to care for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or an overnight stay, your pet will be treated like my own. I work for myself, from home, and can generally work around your pet's schedule with the exception of Tuesdays from 11:30am-1:30 pm and Wednesdays from 11:30am - 12:30 pm. I'm able to help with potty training your pup, I have experience doing this with my own and know that consistency is key. Just let me know what method you're using!

About: I’ve had a deep connection with animals for as long as I can remember. I currently share my space with my 3 companions, being my dog and two cats. Over the years, I’ve been entrusted by friends and family members alike to care for their beloved fur babies. My love for this work stems from my genuine affection for these animals, treating them with the same level of care and consideration as I would a person (perhaps even to an added degree). My current experience in pet care primarily consists of senior animals, each with unique health requirements. Though I’ve worked with many animals, I firmly believe that each pet has its own unique set of needs and distinct personality. I am committed to building a relationship with your pet so that I can learn who they are and what they love! I am currently available throughout all days of the week. Whenever your pets need someone to spend quality time with, I will more than happily be there to provide that for them. I am available 24/7 to your pets. I can adapt my routine to whatever their needs may be. Feel free to reach out at any time.

About: I have owned dogs of various sizes, from Chihuahuas to Dobermans. I currently have three large dogs who range in energy. I have a lazy German Shepherd, an excitable Doberman, and a high energy Belgian Malinois. Because of this, I’m sure I can handle dogs of various sizes and energy levels. Throughout the years I have been the one in my household to administer any necessary medication to all of my dogs, so if you have a senior dog who needs various medications, I’m the sitter for you! I am currently on summer break, so I am free almost every day. My schedule is fairly flexible. Please reach out to check my availability :) I will gladly take your fur baby out for potty breaks, feed them as needed, and give them treat as allowed by you. Cuddles and pets are absolutely part of my services!

About: Hi! My name is Naylea and I’ve always loved being around animals. Most of my experience comes from caring for pets belonging to family and friends, and now I’m excited to start helping more pet owners while doing something I genuinely enjoy. Spending time with animals never feels like work to me. I love being outdoors and going on long walks, exploring, and giving dogs the exercise and stimulation they need. But if your pet prefers relaxing inside, getting belly rubs, or just having a calm companion nearby, I’m just as happy doing that too. I believe every pet is different, so I always try to match their energy and routine. I also have pets of my own, which has given me lots of hands-on experience with different personalities. I have a female French Bulldog, a male Pug, and a Siamese mix cat. My pug is very friendly and loves meeting new dogs, so if your pet enjoys other dogs, he could join us for a walk or some playtime. My Frenchie is a little more selective with new friends, so she usually sticks to her own space. And my cat mostly enjoys eating and napping all day like a king. I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and flexible with each pet’s needs and personality. My goal is to give your pet a fun, relaxed experience while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 Experienced with dogs and cats 🐾 Comfortable with different energy levels and personalities 🐾 Love long walks and outdoor time 🐾 Patient and attentive with shy pets 🐾 Photo and update friendly My work schedule is pretty flexible. I would be able to watch and take care of your baby anytime of the week, I would just need to have 2-3 day notice so I can clear my schedule for the day/s. I have a small fenced yard with two small dogs, one is a little feisty when it comes to meeting new dogs & the other is a little timid but very sweet. My cat is also iffy when it come to meeting dogs but she is super sweet when she trusts them. I will cage my dogs if other animals are around, just for safety reasons!

About: I’m passionate about providing the best care for pets, no matter their age or needs. From my experience caring for Paris, who required medication on a schedule, I’ve learned the importance of attention to detail and consistency. I’m adaptable and enjoy creating a safe, enriching environment for pets to feel at home. Whether it’s taking a walk, giving medication, or offering companionship, I treat every pet with the love and respect they deserve. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets I care for by creating a flexible, loving environment. My schedule is designed to ensure that every pet receives the attention they deserve—whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles. I make sure to stick to feeding, medication, and exercise routines to keep pets feeling comfortable and secure. Each day, I dedicate time to ensure that each pet feels like they’re getting the best care possible, no matter what their specific needs are. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure, pet-proofed areas for play and rest. I keep all harmful substances out of reach, and my space is designed to be cozy and calming for all pets. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, including their preferences and any special requirements. When caring for pets in their own homes, I maintain their routine as closely as possible, ensuring a familiar and stress-free environment. I communicate regularly with pet parents, providing updates and reassurance. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved every moment of their stay.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 10 so taking care of animals is something I’ve always been used to. I’ve looked after puppies, senior dogs, and all kinds of cats over the years. Every pet has their own personality and I try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re with me. I currently work part time M-F 2-6pm (Wednesdays 12:30-6:00pm) I do have the holidays off since I work at a school. So I am available. For a safe and trustworthy environment, I always listen to and follow any rules or instructions the owner leaves. I’ll also ask questions whenever needed to make sure your pet gets the best care possible.

Jonnie was amazing!!! Finding someone to watch my beloved fur babies can be a daunting task, but I’m thoroughly impressed with the outstanding job Jonnie did with my animals during our week vacation! And she kept all my plants alive and had the house swept, litter boxes clean, and the poop outside was scooped! I will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her as a trustworthy person who was excellent with all my animals! Even the backyard chickens! When she came to return the keys, my dogs were all happy to see her! I’m so grateful to have found Jonnie on Rover!

About: I’ve never met a pet I didn’t want to be friends with. I’m reliable, caring, and happy to adapt to whatever your pet needs, whether they’re an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a little bit of a menace. I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away, and you’ll probably get more photos of your pet than you asked for because I have zero self control when it comes to fur babies. I'm currently working remote and my availability has opened wide up. I love to stay active and doing things so why not do something i love (hang with cute animals) while i have the free time! My goal is simple: keep your pet happy, comfortable, and entertained until you get home. I’m great at following routines, giving lots of attention, and making friends with pets on their terms (even the ones who like to play hard to get). Whether that’s a walk, a game, a cuddle session, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get the care they deserve.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of every kind since I was 10—big, small, shy, or extra wiggly! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and pamper their pets for years. Along the way, I’ve also cared for reptiles, birds, and other unique companions. Whether it’s a turtle that needs tank time, a parrot that loves to chat, or a pup who lives for belly rubs, I treat every pet like part of the family! I’m a college student with an open and flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and can easily adjust my hours to fit your pet’s routine. My home is spacious, cozy, and fully pet-friendly! I have plenty of toys, treats, bones, and comfy spots for pets to relax and play. While I don’t have a yard, I’m close to several beautiful dog parks and walking trails here in Clovis—perfect for daily walks and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy a safe, fun, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family.

FAQs for House Sitting - Helm

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 411 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Helm. 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 Helm 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 Helm 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 Helm 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Helm. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
