“Kim was great with our dog while we were gone for the weekend. He seemed happy, the house looked great, I received a few photos as well and Kim was quick to respond to messages. Would use Kim again :)”
“Kyli was thoughtful, thorough, reliable and kind. Our animals were calm and well cared for upon our return. She loved our dog but somehow she won over our very shy cat, a cat whisperer for sure. Thank you Kyli!”
“Juan was amazing with my senior cat and my dog. He was attentive specifically towards my cat. And answered immediately whenever I would inquire about my pets. I strongly recommend.”
“Andrea was great. We had her come stay at our Airbnb while we took a fishing trip while visiting Washington. She took such great care of our baby so we could enjoy our fishing trip stress free. She kept me updated with picture throughout the trip so I wouldn’t be worried. Also, the day before she came by to do a meet a greet and make sure we were comfortable beforehand. All in all we had a great experience and I will definitely use rover again!”
“Robert was ABSOLUTELY fabulous! He was patient, thoughtful, and really communicative. From the moment we requested a sitter until after the service was complete, he was swift to respond, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated on all the pet care rituals. He did not flinch when the breaker needed to be reset during a housesit, and he took such wonderful care of our tankgirl, Bailey. 5 stars, 2 thumbs way up, and a 3 snaps in Z formation! Highly recommend.”
“Gypsie and Robby are the best! They love on my pets as if they were their own and the house always looks even better than I left it when I come home. Highly recommend!”
“We LOVE how much Shalindra loves our dogs, and they love her! She keeps us thoroughly updated and sends plenty of pictures and videos so we know they’re doing well. She is someone who you know just adores spending time with dogs, which helps us know she’s enjoying her time with our pups, even if one of our dogs is insane haha. Highly recommend Shalindra if you want someone to truly enjoy hanging out with your pups and update you along the way.”
About: I have been petsitting for family for a long time but more so in the past 4 years. I have petsat many different kinds of animals ranging from birds to even rats and gerbils, I love them all! I am most experienced with dogs however. I have dogsat 3 big, high-energy retrievers at once, but i have also dogsat a senior dog with a challenging chronic illness. I’m very good at following directions and am a quick learner! I’m available now until the end of August to petsit before I go back to nursing school at Gonzaga! I take a couple shifts (part-time) at a kids indoor playground cafe. But I should have lots of downtime to hangout with you furry friend(s) in between!! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. With over 4 years of petsitting experience, I prioritize your pet’s safety by following your routines closely, keeping doors, gates, and leashes secure. And of course making sure they have what they need in terms of food exercise and plenty of affection! I’m always paying close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can quickly notice any concerns and keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Ryasa is the best! We have dogs that are older and very sensitive but Ryasa was able to meet all our needs and more. Shes super friendly and professional. Highly recommend her.”
“Ryann was exceptional! She sent us updates and pictures regularly. The house was spotless when we came home. We felt like our two dogs were taken great care of! Look forward to using her for our future dog/house sitting needs :)”
“Mason was kind and communicative. Looked after Sagan very well, and messaged me many cute whimsical things throughout my trip regarding Sagan and my plants. I came home to a happy cat, and a tidy home. I would happily work with Mason again.”
“So happy we found Cheryl to take care of our dog, Milo while we went away for a week. It was our first time using Rover and Milo has a hard time with strangers, but felt very comfortable with Cheryl. She provides lots of photo and video updates. We felt very at ease on our trip knowing Milo was in good hands. We’ll absolutely use Cheryl for any future care.”
“Seven is the best dog sitter anyone could ask for! When our dog had an emergency and we were in another country, Seven acted with compassion and courage and rapidly got her the care she needed. Their love for pets shines through and makes them a wonderful pet sitter!!”
“Anam is a FANTASTIC house/pet sitter! She stayed at our house for 3 weeks and we came home to a clean house and VERY happy animals! I would highly recommend Anam as she is kind, communicative, and responsible. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and even took our kitty to the vet while we were gone. Amazing! We will absolutely be hiring her in the future!”
“Sally is super sweet and so amazing! I had a cancellation for someone watching my dog for Christmas, and Sally was available with only a week notice. She came and spent the night with my pup, she loved on my dog, left my home clean, and even made Ollie some eggs and bacon for breakfast, his favorite! I will definitely be looking to book Sally for any future dog sitting needs.”
“Kevin did a fantastic job taking care of our 4-year old Bernedoodle. He followed our directions explicitly, asked questions when needed and kept us abreast of their interactions throughout his stay. We can't wait to leave town again so that we can have him back!”
“Gabrielle overnighted with our King Charles Spaniel last week. This was the second time using her service. Prompt arrival, asked all the right questions and provided text updates - even a photo of a happy dog. Responsible sitter and one I plan use in the future. Thanks!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,726 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Junction. 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 Junction 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 Junction 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 Junction 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.
