About: Iâve taken care of tons of dogs throughout my life, both my own and others. I have done this at others houses, as well as my own. Iâve taken care of big dogs mostly, and I also have experience with senior dogs (not so much with puppies). ABOUT ME: Hi, Iâm a college junior currently working on Rover for the duration of Summer 2025. I am open to walking, sitting, boarding, and drop-ins. Iâve never met a dog I didnât like, and I love having the opportunity to engage with new pets. I promise that if you book with me, your dog will receive the care and attention that it deserves for the duration of the booking. I will care for your pet as if it were my own. Expect multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. My goal is for owners to be able to trust that their pet is being given the same care under me that theyâd be given under normal circumstances. Being in unfamiliar environments can be terrifying for many dogs, and I utilize the experiences iâve had with numerous dogs over the years to provide a loving, yet safe, home for the dogs. I cannot board pets in my own place. I work full-time overnights, but I have free-time during the daytime. Pet care has always been a priority, whether my own pets or others. I prefer morning drop offs and pickups due to my schedule. I love to stay active, so incorporating walks into my day is easy. I will be sure to replicate their typical environment as best I can. I will speak with the owner and make note of the petâs usual day-to-day.
About: I grew up taking care of a chocolate lab. When I graduated college I adopted 2 dachshunds. I cared for them until the both passed. I am comfortable with senior dogs- giving meds, changing diapers, whatever your pup needs. After my dachshunds passed I adopted an Australian cattle mix and a husky so I'm comfortable taking care of puppies and bigger dogs as well. I am currently work full time for the government. I am free on the weekends and most holidays to take care of your precious pets. I am available as a dog walker or in home pet sitter. I like taking dogs on walks, playing in the yard or dog park and of course snuggling.
âWas gone for about 3 days. Jessica was able to provide me with a morning and afternoon report on how my pets were doing and sent me plenty of pictures. I was so grateful and was able to enjoy my trip knowing that they were in good hands. My 2 cats and pup were so comfortable with her. Definitely recommend and will rebook again!â

âScott and Sarah were fantastic. I really appreciated their level of communication, care, state in which they left my home. They pay attention to the details. Every picture I received of my dogs, it looked like they were smiling ear to ear and have the best days. So cute.â
âOur little old man, who has seemed anxious after we've left him with some dog-sitters in the past, seemed calm and well cared for when we got home. Emelyn promptly sent an update every time I requested one and left our home very neat. She even emptied and refilled the dishwasher and watered the plants on the back porch. I would definitely recommend Emelyn!â

About: Iâve watched and walked dogs since I was a kid. Walking them has always been my favorite. A year ago I got my first dog of my own! I studied Cesar Milan before getting him and love applying what I learned. I work outside the home and spend evening and weekends with Merlin. We are available to care for your dogs in your home and at mine. Merlin can be crated or not, use a dog door or not, and gets along well with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Merlin and I work together. I love how dogs influence each other and Iâve worked hard to teach Merlin how to be a good pack member.
About: Iâve been caring for dogs for over 8 years, and itâs something I genuinely love. Iâve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs, so Iâm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications, and paying close attention to any changes in behavior or comfort. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets, and I always treat every dog like theyâre my own. I prioritize keeping their routine consistent so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while youâre away. I also have volunteered in the past with being a temporary foster for shelter/rescue dogs. I also have volunteered with driving dogs in rescues to their medical appointments. Iâm reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home and your petâs needs. Whether your dog needs a long walk, extra attention, or more specialized care, Iâm here to help. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your dog the time, attention, and consistency they need. Iâm available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week, with more open availability in the afternoons and evenings. I do my best to accommodate your petâs routine and can provide reliable, timely care you can count on. Your dogâs safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to understand each dogâs routine, personality, and any specific needs including medical care or medications. I follow instructions closely and keep a watchful eye on behavior to ensure your dog feels secure and well cared for. In your home, Iâm respectful of your space and maintain a calm, clean environment. On walks, I stay attentive, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure your dog is always secure. Iâm also happy to provide updates so you feel at ease while youâre away.

âAnastasia takes excellent care of our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and are home. We always miss our dogs terribly when we go away, but trust they are well cared for by Anastasia.â

âLaila was incredible! My boys had the best time with her. They went on so many walks, had so much play time, and received an abundance of attention. Both of them pull quite a bit on their walks, and she got them to relax and enjoy the scenery! Not only that, she managed to tire my super energetic 6 y/o out (which is basically impossible) Laila sent a bunch of pictures & videos & remained extremely responsive the entire time. If I could leave her more than 5 stars, I would!â

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Heritage
Absolutely amazing sitter! Our usual sitter was unavailable and Janna stepped in for us almost last minute despite us being a new client. She came out that week to meet our little ones before we left. Janna was amazing! She took wonderful care of our menagerie and our house. Our fluffy gray stealth cat even warmed up to her - a first for him with any of our house guests. Everything was clean and tidy when we got home. And we were so grateful for the daily photos of our pups and cats having fun, cuddling, and relaxing, which helped us enjoy our long weekend and miss our little ones just a bit less. Weâll definitely be having Janna out again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 614 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Heritage. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Heritage walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Heritage 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Heritage 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
