“Kacy is wonderful with our shy and quirky dog! She provides regular pictures and updates about how things are going, so I never worry. She also takes great care of our home while we're away.”
“Mamie was a great sitter and I will rebook with her next time we are in need of someone to watch our pets. She checked in at least twice each day with updates and photos, took our dog for daily walks, and gave our pets the care they needed while we were away. I would recommend booking with Mamie to care for your pets.”
“Highly recommended! Elayna was wonderful. She made sure to keep us updated on when she got to our place, walked and fed our puppy, and even our puppy’s naps. She sent us photos and even in the pictures it looked like our puppy, Lima was smiling with her there. Elayna was flexible, communicative, and very kind. We will definitely be booking her in the future for Lima.”
“Good communication, kind, considerate. She went above and beyond to make sure my "non-traditional" pets also had water in addition to my cat. She was respectful of my house, and I will be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Kennedy was awesome. She was there for us when we had to book last minute because the person who was supposed to watch our dog bailed unexpectedly. She was receptive, considerate, kind, and communicative. I should mention that our baby is an English Bulldog. Kennedy understands the different needs of brachiocephalic breeds. And she was able to go that extra mile for us to properly care for our fur baby!”
“Natalie was extremely responsible and curteous watching over our home and our two pups. She kept us updated with daily pictures and a summary of the girls’ day which was very comforting. We especially appreciated her flexibility to stay another night when our flight home was canceled. We definitely recommend Natalie and will call on her again!”
“Christine always takes the best care of Phoebe and Lauren, they are happy and content when I return, I always get pictures of the good time they have while I am gone. This is the third time Christine has taken care of Phoebe and she can be a handful, but Christine handles it all with all smile!! Thank you for being great! We have already booked our next trip, it is so easy to know Christine is in control.”
“We can't say enough great things about Brittany. She's very caring,friendly,knowledgeable about pets (she's a Vet Tech!), thorough,and really communicative. Giving us numerous updates while we were away. She's forward thinking, asking us questions that we hadn't given thought to. Anyone using her is lucky to have watch their pets!”
“Rachel was a wonderful in-home dog sitter. In addition to being a perfect house guest, she was so kind and caring to my senior pup. She was communicative and left everything in perfect order. Ziggy says he would highly recommend her and would give her 6 stars if he could!”
“Autumn is amazing. My partner and I recently relocated to Pittsburgh with a trip previously planned for overseas. I was worried it would be difficult to find someone to watch our two kids (dogs) for two weeks, but Autumn was there for the rescue. She took amazing care of Butters our senior pup with limited mobility, as well as our younger pup Maeve. Autumn provided updates with photos to make sure that we were well informed while away. She also would reach out to clarify the laundry list of things they need, which I find comforting to know that she is going to make sure everything is going perfect. Our place was clean when we returned and everything looked just as we left it. I will be reaching out to Autumn in the future and recommend her to any parent.”
“Obi can be anxious but he was well cared for. Plenty of communication and updates, lots of play time, and he made a new dog friend with Astrid! 10/10 will rebook with Richard!”
“Heather took great care of my 2 fur babies. I was able to enjoy my first family vacation in years because she made me so comfortable with the care she gave them. She sent pictures everyday and kept me updated in all of their activities. She will be my Rover go to for future trips.”
“Evan did a wonderful job watching my two rescue babies and our home for 5 nights. He is kind, reliable and detail oriented. His communication is clear and timely. I was able to relax while I was away because I knew they were in loving and capable hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”
“Our boys love people.. so we were happy to find Molly who could house sit with them. (normally people think cats can be left alone but our boys are social!) While we were gone we received updates and photos to let us know how they were doing. We came home to a cleaned up house and happy kitties. Will definitely reach out to Molly if we need sitting in the future.”
“Milica was absolutely WONDERFUL! She sent loads of photos, was very communicative, and took excellent care of the home and the dogs. I could tell from photos and daily stories how happy and comfortable the dogs were with her. What's more, when our flight home was cancelled and we had to drive back, delaying our arrival by more than 15 hours, Milica went above and beyond to make sure our girls were taken care of and reassured us that she would be there for them as long as it took! We will absolutely use Milica again in the future.”
“Stellar! Sydney took very great care of my two dogs, including the diabetes dog/shots on while staying in my home while I was away! She communicated with me daily-even sent cute pics! House was just the way I left it! Great communication! Very capable young woman! Definitely booking her again, and gives me a lot more freedom knowing that I can trust someone with my pets!”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ingram
Sage was wonderful with our dogs while we were away! She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated with consistent communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she truly cared about the dogs and took the time to make them feel comfortable and loved. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in great hands. We would absolutely book Sage again and highly recommend her!
Alyssa took such great care of our dog Koa! She was very reliable and communicative and we really appreciated the frequent updates and photos while we were away. She also took great care of our home. We felt completely comfortable knowing Koa and our home were in good hands. We look forward to having Alyssa dog sit for us again in the future.
Nicole was absolutely wonderful and took amazing care of my two dogs. One dog had an unexpected surgery less than two weeks before our trip and Nicole still agreed to provide care. She is an expert with giving meds and followed all of the care instructions. We will definitely be calling on her again!
Taylor was an absolute Angel! Not only did she pamper our two dogs while we were out of town on vacation, but she also came to the rescue by staying an extra day when our return flight home was canceled. She is very trustworthy and followed directions exactly as we specified. Highly recommend her for dog and house sitting.
Jeremy stayed in our home for a week with our Husky and two elderly cats - one cat requires both an oral and a topical medication and our Husky requires an oral medication. Jeremy provided excellent care and at least daily check ins with photos. Our home was super clean when we returned home and could tell that Jeremy tends to both the pets and home he is caring for like his own. Jeremy also handled more bizarre situations that were encountered (like a dead possum in our backyard) super well. Communication from the start of our request for a meet and greet was exemplary. Quick responses and always right on time at the agreed upon time even when using public transportation as the primary mode of transit. We would love to welcome Jeremy back into our home and would be so grateful to have him care for our animals and house again in the future.
Madison was absolutely amazing with our dog Tato! She was very communicative the entire time from before the booking to during and on our way home. She completely catered to our his needs and made us feel very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her! I already booked with her again!

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 Ingram 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 Ingram 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 Ingram 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.
