“Ariana did an amazing job. She was very proactive with status updates and kept me informed daily about everything Dexter was up to. I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free knowing my dog was in good hands. 10/10, will book again.”
“Kaya is a calm, quiet, and sweet person. She made herself available on a last minute request. She was on time, and Zion liked her right away. Kaya followed instructions, and sent us a pic and updates on how he was doing. I would definitely request Kaya again.”
About: I understand how nerve wracking it is to trust someone new to take care of your fur babies. My goal is to give you peace of mind and treat them like one of my own. I have taken care of my own, neighbors, and friends pets for years and am looking to expand while in school! You can expect open communication, frequent updates, and plenty of enrichment (of course some funny photos too)! I will be in school Tuesday and Thursday nights for 2 1/2 hours. Once I get the swing of things I will expand my schedule:). I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love. I make sure each pet’s individual routine and needs are followed, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from their owner. I also enjoy giving pets plenty of attention and companionship while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they were my own and keep owners updated so they know their pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I’ve cared for animals at every stage of life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I also have experience caring for special-needs cats and understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve cared for budgies, cockatiels, and cockatoos, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their care routines. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and behavior so I can help them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll provide the care they need while treating them like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to giving every pet the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m available throughout the weekdays/weekends and have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their regular routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I can care for your pet in the comfort of your home or, if you’re comfortable with it, in my home. My yard is fully fenced, providing a secure space for dogs to play and explore safely. I understand how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I’ll provide regular updates with texts, photos, or calls to let you know how your pet is doing. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care to help them feel happy and at ease.
“Short version: Ruby speaks pet! Long version: Ruby was a pet whisperer the moment she met my dog; he totally loved on her (he's not picky but he definitely has his favorites). During the meet & greet I could tell she understood how important sticking to a schedule was, which meant a lot. But going back really quick, what meant the most to me was her empathy (we both want the best for our pets), and this is what made Ruby a trusted sitter. Thank you Ruby, so very much!!”
About: I've had pets my entire life and have walked dogs, house sat with cats, and have done drop in visits on and off for years now. I understand pet care is particular and unique and would love to relieve the burden that is worrying from afar! I am currently attending college online and will be working to help sustain my life while doing so through side work! It is self paced so I am flexible. I do not offer services in my own home but will make sure your pets are always safe and well taken care of in your home or neighborhood.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for every dog I care for. With 7 years of experience, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I treat each dog like they’re my own, giving them plenty of attention, care, and comfort while making sure they feel safe and happy I am currently working full time from 10:30-8 pm I am available all day on Wednesday’s and Thursdays! I am more than happy and willing to keep your fur babies happy on my days off. If i need to adjust my schedule to match yours, please let me know :) I have an open back and front yard that is on private property. I also have 4 dogs that will keep your doggie company :) I can also crate your dog if i have too!
“I cannot recommend Lisa enough! She took amazing care of our Cockapoo, Winston, keeping him happy and active throughout our time away. Winston got to enjoy beach days, playtime at the park, car rides to the country, and plenty of long walks. Lisa also sent us photos throughout the entire time we were away, which was such a nice touch and gave us peace of mind knowing Winston was having a great time. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches, and Winston was completely content. If you want someone who is reliable, caring, and will go above and beyond, Lisa is the perfect choice. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Alisha was amazing. She took incredible care of our senior golden retriever and our cat. We received lots of photos every day and we came home to two happy and well taken care of babies.”
“Thank you so much for taking such sweet care of our fur babies! Our little ChiChi was diagnosed with Addisons just the week before and was very ill. We came home to a very happy boy who had gained nearly all 9 pounds of his weight loss back! Thank you!!!”
“Jessica was fantastic! She took such great care of our dogs on short notice, and it really showed — she was attentive, communicative, and left everything spotless. Our Akitas were clearly comfortable and happy with her the whole time. We'd book with her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
About: I’ve helped raised 10 dogs: 2 samoyds, 2 golden retrievers, 2 labs, a border collie, a Dobermann, a Bernese mountain dog, and a chihuahua. I also was a door to door and pizza delivery man who Interacted with every type of dog as a stranger entering their territory. I’ve been in multiple threatening positions and have a lot of confidence from that. I can read demeanor very well. My most recent partner and I ended things and she took the dogs. Sad country song in the making lol. I find this therapeutic and isn’t just a side hustle. I genuinely love all dogs and it helps me just as much as helping you. I work from home as an insurance broker. I will shape my schedule around the dogs. I can also work anywhere so it allows me to travel to you as well. I have a fenced back yard with locks on the gate. My office is in the back yard with a big window for me to see them. I am an active dog watcher who goes with the flow of what the owner requests. I do not like leaving them alone ever. If I come to your house I will not have any guests over and I always give active updates.
“Cely and Jordan took amazing care of Ruby and our house while we were out of the country for a week. We appreciated their regular communication through the app because we didn't have cell service, and when we got back Ruby was clearly comfortable with them and being her playful self. They also watered our yard to keep our plants alive and left the house tidy. We'd recommend them to anyone and would definitely work with them again!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, and many other animals for most of my life. I’ve had two wonderful dogs of my own, a Basset Hound and a Dachshund, who were a huge part of my heart. They were both pretty stubborn, so along the way I picked up some useful training skills as well. My schedule is flexible and can be adjusted with one week’s notice before the boarding date. Otherwise, I’m available anytime on weekends and weekdays after 5 p.m. I’m happy to coordinate and accommodate your scheduling needs whenever possible. I provide loving, attentive, and reliable care for every pet, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, while giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m happy to follow specific instructions for medications, special diets, and individual needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away!

“Mallory took great care of our dogs for a weekend while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures of them & responded quickly & took action when one of our dogs broke through the neighbors fence she was able to get them back quickly & even fixed our fence for us. We would recommend Mallory to anyone!”
“Katherine did a great job taking care of our dog and the house. We really appreciated her updates, communication, and cleanliness. We would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,914 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Herron. 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 Herron 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 Herron 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 Herron 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
