About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover who has owned both large and small dogs throughout my life. I’m offering pet sitting services for anyone who needs help for a few days each week, weekends, or even longer stays while you’re away. I have three children (ages 7, 5, and 3) who are gentle and accustomed to being around animals, as well as a small kitten in our home. Your pets will receive plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re gone. Whether you’re planning a vacation, business trip, or just need temporary help, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family members will be well cared for in a safe and welcoming environment. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to learn more. I look forward to helping you and your pets! 🐾 My hand is fenced with the next size backyard plus behind the house. We do have a pathway where we could take long walks in the morning and on the hot days they have the backyard. We typically stay home. We don’t venture out as much so I’m here to help you enjoy your vacation while you take your time away where your fur babies will be taken care of.
“You can tell taking care of animals is in Nelson’s blood. He came through for me and Nico on a last minute business trip and provided plenty of updates throughout the day. In addition to taking excellent care of Nico, Nelson also left the house even cleaner than I did when I left which is such a relief after coming home from a trip. Thanks again Nelson, Nico is already looking forward to hanging out with you next time!”

“Taylor was a godsend. Having just moved to Merced, I was worried how to get someone trustworthy to take care of my pup in what seemed like an overwhelming sea of available but under-reviewed sitters. She worked with my schedule to figure out a good time for sitting, was communicative and really set my anxieties at ease when we first met her. I cannot thank her enough for the care she took of my dog, and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a loving, welcoming, and responsible person through Rover.”


About: I’ve always wanted a dog as a kid but my parents did not want to take care of it. Now that I’m an adult I love taking care of my dog, coco. He is a large dog and very active. He enjoys walking, playing, and getting belly rubs. I would do the same to the dogs I take care of as if it was my own. I also took care of 4 small dogs at a time for 5 years. Training, playing, feeding, and walking. I’m currently have a full time job so my availability will be right after 5pm. During weekends I’m usually available. Occasionally I have family events, but I can accommodate. I always check up on my dogs when I get home. I have an automated feeder and I created a dog door for them to come and go as they please. During the night I usually have them go into their homes to rest. But usually they free roam.
About: I own my first pet 8 years ago. I had a mix poodle/chihuahua dog. I now have 4 big dogs that I love and care for so much and will take care of your pets as if they were my own. I also have 3 kitties that I care for. I’m currently a stay at home but I love to keep myself busy. I enjoy playing with my dogs and going on walks. I’m an outdoor person who enjoys the nature. I have 4 big energetic dogs husky, lab, border collie, and German shepherd.. I know a lot haha. But they are happy dogs who I feed , play and take care of well.
About: My name is Zoe, I’m a Delta College student who original went in with Business as my major, to now Paralegal Studies to then hopefully next nursing. Though it’s always been my dream to start my own boarding company in the future! I’ve worked with animals for 3 years plus, non profit organizations within shelters or adoption events within volunteer work, along with working at a pet store a couple years at Carter’s Pet Mart. Since working their I’ve built my own clientele with house sitting birds previously sold from us, or dogs that come in regularly for nail trims for me! As a child i’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, which has grown into the person I am today! I would love to meet yours furry friends! Pet care fits into my weekly routine as I house sit on a regular basis for plenty of people birds and dogs. I am a college student looking to make extra money outside of my regular job at a Law Office to make extra cash for college expenses and saving up for my own future as I am an independent student. I prefer to house sit, as it works into my schedule well, and makes potty breaks and etc, a lot more simpler and happier for your furry ones! During my work days I stop by multiple times a day to do potty breaks, and give them some love for a moment. On my days off i enjoy to walk the dogs or play with the birds by giving enrichment. As a college student and worker, I find the time throughout my day if working or having class to stop by throughout the day to do multiple potty breaks. Some prefer for me to stay at their home with their animals, and some just prefer for me to stop by and hang out with them as well as feed and water, and clean any business that had been done. Either way I am willing to do so! Though I do prefer to watch pets in the clients home.
About: I was raised in a home with many pets, which has taught me a lot about how to responsibly and lovingly care for many types of animals. I am a current student, so I am available most of the time until October. June and July I will be busy during most weekdays for a volunteer program, but weekends are open!! August and September weekdays and weekends work for me. I believe that communication is key for understanding and creating a respectful and caring environment for each pet. I’m excited to talk with you and get to know the specific needs of your animals.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 and my family always had service dogs/pets so also training and constantly dealing with dogs! :) I just graduated from UCSD, currently taking a gap year while I apply for MA programs! I usually have a lot of flexibility with time! Your safety and your pets safety is just as important as mine. Having communication about safety/rules is crucial to having a healthy and safe pet!
About: I've mainly cared for adult dogs, but I am experienced with bathing and brushing dogs teeth. I'm also used to dogs who live mainly inside the house, but I've also cared for outside dogs. My girl Sophie isn't big on going outside when its hot, and I'm back home from college, so I wouldn't mind having another dog to take care of, I won't have to work until I return to college so I'm rarely busy. When I'm housesitting, I try to keep lets in the area with me at all times. Pets can be chaotic, so I've gotten fairly used to cleanup and even bathing pets who aren't big fans of baths.

About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was just 2 years old, making pet care second nature to me. Over a lifetime of ownership, I have raised everything from dogs and cats to chickens, bunnies, a hamster, and a chameleon. My hands-on experience also includes years of fostering cats and dogs, as well as taking in strays and nursing them back to health. This diverse background has made me highly adaptable to different behaviors, medical needs, and pet personalities. I am an incredibly compassionate, loving person dedicated to a future of helping animals, and I will treat your pets with the exact same deep care and devotion I give my own. Pet care is my absolute top priority, and because I am completely free all the time, I can fully devote 100% of my attention to your pet. My highly flexible schedule means I am available throughout the day and week for consistent feeding, exercise, and companionship. Your pet will never feel lonely, as I am always around to keep them company, maintain their exact daily routines, and ensure they get the dedicated love they deserve I build deep trust with animals by treating them like family and giving them a spoiled, loving environment where they can thrive. My home features a fully fenced yard where pets can safely run, play, and burn off energy. Pets naturally bond with me; my childhood dog used to sleep right above my head and sit at my feet whenever I was at my desk. Whether caring for them in my home or yours, I maintain this exact level of safety, deep devotion, and respect. I strictly follow your specific safety rules, keep environments clean, and will send you frequent photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
About: Ever since I was little I had always animals near me whether that be dogs, cats or even farm animals, I knew/know how to take care of them! I love teaching dogs treats, my fav ones are speak and play dead!! I’m currently working part-time as a server, so when I get off around 2/3 I will have plenty of time to run and play or even cuddle with your pets! My attention will always be your pet at times to ensure their safety and well being in my care! I will always message you if I notice something off and even a quick picture of what we’re doing!:)
About: Your pet will not wanna go home. I will provide excellent care. Ive been obsessed with pets since I was a little boy and have always treated them as another human being. Expect to get the best care from me for your pet because I believe they deserve it. They’ll always have a watching eye and never be unattended. They will also be able to roam in my home comfortably and freely as if in their own home. Your pet will always want to return to my home because I will provide the best experience that they have had with a pet sitter that honestly cares and strives to provide that nurturing and fun environment for each and every stay that they’ll have with me. I’m home 23 hours out of the day at home. I have plenty of time on my hands to be the best pet sitter for your pet. I give my pets full access to my house and let them choose where they feel most comfortable. Of course I make sure to make my home very safe for them because they can be very curious about everything like a small toddler. There’s never a need to worry about their safety and we’ll being.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 300 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hopeton. 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 Hopeton 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 Hopeton 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 Hopeton 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.
