“Lauren was amazing with my fur-babies. They enjoyed her company especially at the greet and meet. She sends picture updates and spends quality time with them. Maui and Bruno had a nice time with their new friend. Highly Recommend. Will hire again soon.”
“We spent a fair bit of time researching the site, looking for a house/dog sitter that would meet our specific needs. After considerable searching, we decided on Peggy. Peggy is very responsive to emails/texts, and we were able to quickly arrange an initial meet and greet at our house. Needless to say, the meeting went very well. Peggy is a delight to deal with, Sierra our Samoyed took to her immediately, and we set up our first house/dog sitting appointment. During the appointment, Peggy kept us informed, sending us pictures of our girl, took care of our Sierra, and the house was immaculate when we came home. Very pleased with Peggy and we definitely plan to use her services again.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I’ve worked at two animal shelters, socializing dogs, playing with them, feeding them on time, bathing them. I’ve owned four dogs, two of them recently passed and lived up to ages 16 and 12. I’ve lived with my cousin and her 4 large dogs with specific feeding needs and her 4 cats. The last shelter I worked at mostly had cats and kittens, some with special needs that I cared for. I’m not currently employed and have plenty of time in my schedule to give to an animal. I do not live alone, but still need to be home to help with my two. Nonetheless, I have lots of time on my hands right now. Any specific requirements they need, I will fulfill to my best abilities. Dogs and cats are weird creatures with weird specific needs sometimes. They have their ow personalities and likes and dislikes, so I understand. I can let them out for potty breaks, play with, and feed them. As long as there is a small list of instructions.
About: I have had pets since I was very young. I currently have my loving Mia and she's been with me for 10 years. I will give your pets the love and attention they deserve while you're away! My pet sitting service offers personalized care, playtime, and cuddles to keep your furry friends happy and comfortable in the safety of their own home. Rest easy knowing your pets are in good hands! I do work during the week. I am an Instructional Aide for Silver Valley Unified School District. I work for one of the schools in Fort Irwin National Training Center. I can do drop-in visits during the week, but they would be after work. I have just moved to the area and I am looking to build a customer base. Whatever is normal routine for your dog! I think it’s important to maintain this balance for them while you’re away so they do not have added stress. It helps keep them feeling familiar and grounded in your absence, but I am always happy to add to that with new experiences and places. I do not have the capacity to allow clients animals into my home, yet am more than happy to travel to stay in someone’s house to care for their animals. Animals are generally more comfortable and confident in a space they are familiar with, and I am willing to travel to ensure your pet is cared for as best as possible.
About: I love all animals, from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles, and other small pets! I’m caring, patient, and dedicated to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every animal has different needs and routines, and I’ll do my best to follow your instructions and provide the best possible care. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and kindness while you’re away. I want you to feel confident knowing your furry, feathered, or scaly friend is in caring hands! I do my best to be flexible and work with each pet owner’s schedule. I can discuss feeding times, walks, playtime, drop-in visits, and other care needs in advance. My goal is to make sure your pet receives consistent attention and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pet has fresh water, food, and a safe environment. I will keep doors secure, pay attention to their behavior, and contact you if I notice anything unusual.
About: I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon! I work remotely from home. Caring for pets and spending time with them is something I have the luxury of doing throughout the day. The other work I do is flexible so caring for animals is my top priority. When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 132 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Johnstons Corner. 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 Johnstons Corner 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 Johnstons Corner 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 Johnstons Corner 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.
