“Karlie is an outstanding house and pet sitter. Professional, friendly, and communicative . My dogs were well adjusted after 7 days and my home was in excellent condition. Highly recommend.”
About: I have cared for all sorts of pets including dogs, cats and birds for at least 10 years (not including the time I spent caring for and helping to train my own dog growing up). I would periodically watch my grandmother’s two senior schnoodles as a teenager, have been asked over the years by family friends to house/petsit for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes and with different medication needs, and once lived with two cockatoos who I got to care for as well. I am currently working as a substitute teacher which means my schedule is very flexible and -with advanced notice- I can be available for longer periods during the day to dedicate plenty of time to your pet(s). Since I will be caring for your pets in your home, I do my absolute best to treat them and your space as I would my own. I know how much trust it takes to allow someone into your home with the things that mean the most to you and take that very seriously!
“Was absolutely spectacular! Kept me up to date with everything. Was quick to respond to communication. I can't say how much I appreciate her being able to do this last minute!”
“Colleen was amazing with our dogs and our home. She took care of our pups as if they were her own! Colleen sent pictures and communicated with us frequently and replied to our texts promptly.”
“I have a rowdy 1 year old pup, an older dog, and a bunch of chickens and she cared for all while we were out of town for a week. The house was clean and animals were all happy and healthy when we returned. She was communicative with us and vdry kind and caring to our pets. Sarah went above and beyond and I would definitely hire her again!”
“Bryant did a fantastic job taking care of our Milo! He was super responsive, sent us lots of pictures and videos, and really took the time to get to know Milo. It’s obvious how great Bryant is with animals and how much he cares about making his jobs a great experience for the pets and owners alike. Thank you for such great service, Bryant!”
“Laurie is kind, loving, compassionate, meticulous and an all around super dog sitter. She hiked our dogs on the local trails, which was such a blessing. She put up with their barking, and showed her respect and love, even for the especially noisy one, Flea, not a minor accomplishment. A super communicator, never fearing to ask questions, which is always a relief to us. The house was beautifully kept, and it was our pleasure to have her in our home. We are grateful and would use her again any time, if she would have us back! She is now part of our house and dog family. Thank you so much, Laurie.”
About: Since a kid I've been surrounded by dogs. I was taught young how to care for and interact with them. Since then I've always had pets and made sure they lived the best lives they possibly could. While I don't have any sort of specialized skills when it comes to pet care I do have plenty of experience. The majority of my adult life has been spent in the military and security industry. Giving me the required skills to provide a safe and secure environment for your fur child. I am currently working part time with a very open schedule. I'm free most days except from the times of 5pm to 8pm usually. Leaving me plenty of time to check on your pets. I have an enclosed yard with two dogs at home. One small and one big. Both very friendly and would love a trip with your pup to the nearby park.
About: I've cared for dozens of different breeds of dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and ages since I was old enough to walk. I am reliable, respectful, and extremely caring and considerate. I will treat your pet like one of my own- with all of the care and attention they deserve! Attentive to detail and will carefully follow instructions. I’m self-employed so I have a flexible schedule. You can depend on me to be there for you and your pet(s), even at the last minute. Thought I’m unable to care for your pets in my own home, I am familiar with several parks and trails in the area suitable for walking and playing. When I am in someone else’s home, I am always very respectful. Happy to provide references.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Jarales 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 Jarales 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 Jarales 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
