“I thought I knew what a 5 star pet sitter was like, but Makayla has set a new standard! Our 2 cats and 2 dogs were WELL taken care of. One of our pitties can have door aggression, but after a meet and greet we found a way for Makayla to safely come and go while we were away. By the end of the trip, the anxious pittie was Makayla’s shadow. We got daily updates and pictures. Makayla knows how to take care of anxious pets AND their anxious pet-parents. We will absolutely be scheduling our next vacation around Makayla’s availability.”
“Holly was so great with my geriatric dog. She even ran our dishwasher for us. She communicated on a regular basis and sent pictures so I didn't worry about my little old man. You can tell she loves dogs! I would book her again in a heart beat!!”
About: I have had plenty of animals of my own including but not limited to- cats, dogs, fish, lizards, turtles, birds, rabbits, chickens and other farm animals. I have house sat for many different types of families. Full farms, medically challenged pets, senior animals, young animals. I love them all dearly! I can do drop ins and walks before work from 6-7am, and after work 6-7pm. Weekends vary, summers are busy but I can make it work! Regarding my home, I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have plenty of leashes and secured leads. We live on a slow dirt road. No pet, even mine, is ever outside unattended or unleashed. Regarding your home, I will follow whatever rules are laid out for me if I am caring for your animal in their space.
“Kaitlyn was fantastic.! We have three large crazy and chaos menaces and she did fantastic with them all weekend. They have a lot of quirks and she did great managing them all. Our girls were taken great care of. Kaitlyn is a go to for dog sitting now. She also had great communication and sent tons of photos.”

I give them love but I also give them space when they need it and I know how to help with them in exercising for there health
“1st time using Rover and glad we did. Jamie was reliable and a great communicator. She was able to quickly bond with our dog and provide the necessary exercise needed. Since we were traveling and in Charlevoix MI for our son's wedding, Jamie was able to quickly put us at ease by providing great care for our dog.”
“Heather was a delight to meet. She was responsive, sent several pet photos, and left an update note. she took Bijou on a couple of walks and played with the kitties. The house was in good shape and the pets seemed happy when I returned. I would definitely ask Heather to watch my furry kids again.”
“Elle was so kind and attentive and took such great care of our pup Allie. We’re so glad we found Elle and highly recommend her! We’ll be booking her again and know our sweet dog will be well taken care of.”
About: I have had cats as pets for as long as I can remember. I have also had rabbits and dogs too. I currently have 3 cats (a senior, adult and a kitten) and a 5 year old dog. I would love to help you with your furry family members! I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 elementary aged children in school so I am available during the day and most evenings so your pets will have lots of care and attention. I let the pets be themselves in my home. They are free to roam the house and get comfortable while they are in my care.
“We were out of town for two days and Rachel and Stefan stepped into help us last minute take care of our dogs. We could not have been happier with their service. The dogs seemed content and happy when we returned and the house was left in an orderly condition. They followed our instructions for dog care and asked pertinent questions. I would definitely use them again for our furry pups.”
“Tony was amazing. He is kind and took great care of our fur babies. They took to him right away during our meet and greet. I highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to rebook with him.”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and dedication for their well-being. As for special skills, I am patient, responsible, and have great communication with both pets and their owners! Pet sitting brings a bit more structure and joy to my weekly schedule! My work is pretty flexible and allows me more free time on the weekend. It’s extremely important to me to allocate time for feeding, grooming, playtime, and walks, ensuring your furry friend gets the attention and care they need.
“Alana was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and communicative throughout the stay, sending daily updates and photos which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She took great care of our pets and helped them feel comfortable. She also left the house very clean, even doing more than we would’ve expected. She was also incredibly flexible when our travel plans changed due to flight issues. We’d definitely recommend her and would love to work with her again!”
About: In the past I was able to dog sit for this lady whenever she would go on vacation. I loved coming home to the dog and would take care of him like he was mine! I am available to walk your dog(s) after 3pm weekdays and anytime on weekends! I can also dog sit whenever! Preferably at the owners house! If I’m sitting at your house I’m sure to take the dog out as soon as I come home from work and even come home to them on my break to let them out.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 467 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Henderson. 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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.

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.
