“Kimberly was amazing! Our girls are spoiled and she gave them so much love they didn’t want her to leave. We came home to happy pups and well cared for home. We have already scheduled her for another stay. We and the girls highly recommend her.”
“Mindy did great watching my elderly dog and 2 cats. When I got home from vacation my house was clean and animals super happy. She was very quick to respond and check in with me through the trip. Will definitely hire 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!”
“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!”
“Five enthusiastic stars! Nicole cared for our dog while we were away for a much-needed vacation. Our anxious dog can be a handful, but Nicole became his good friend right away. She clearly loves dogs and is a kind, steady presence who did a great job watching our dog and our home while we were away. Nicole will definitely be our first call whenever we are away. And we have asked her to stop by anytime, because our doggie is going to miss her.”
“Chris was awesome! Our dogs took right to her and the house looked great! She was comfortable when meeting our boisterous dogs and very punctual. She also sends great pics! We will definitely continue booking with Chris!”
“Juan was amazing watching Layla! I'm incredibly thankful for the attention and care he gave her as well as the regular communication/updates throughout the sitting. I look forward to Juan watching Layla again in the future!”
“Matthew was very responsive as we got to know each other. Arrived promptly when we expected him. He sent a photo of our pup lounging in the sun while we were gone. As a house sitter as well, he left our house in great shape! I hope we have occasion to have him watch our pup and house again soon.”
“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!”
“We had an amazing experience with Manish. He took such great care of her, walked her several times a day, and made sure she felt completely at home. He kept great communication everyday. Leia had a wonderful time with him and his family. I’ll definitely be booking with them again next time”
“Chloe was a wonderful pet sitter! She took amazing care of our dog and our bunny while we were out of town. She was incredibly respectful of our home & space, and left everything in perfect condition. We appreciated her communication and updates with pictures of our pets! I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Susannah is amazing! Super attentive, communicative, and went above and beyond. She really understood my pets’ needs and made sure everyone was happy and cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer took excellent care of our dog, cats, and home while we were gone. She kept us updated with messages and pictures the whole time. We felt very comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care.”
About: I've always loved animals, I have my own fur children, a 10-year old Cairn terrier and a 3-year old Husky German Shepherd mix. I'm always the first person neighbors ask to look after their fur babies. I am currently between jobs and so I have open availability and am able to be available with a couple of days notice. This may change as I gain clientele. I like to get a lot of detail so that routines stay consistent and trust is built with your animals. If you have any house rules your pets need to abide by that is also helpful.
“Ryasa did a wonderful job with our girls. Eevee takes a while to warm up to new people but they were cuddling in no time! She took them on walks and from the pictures I could tell my pups were enjoying themselves. When we got back from our trip they were very relaxed and tired. Ryasa was great, easy to communicate with, and didn't judge me for my messy home lol. I'll definitely book again.”
“Ardelle clearly as a deep connection with animals. She is was great with our fear aggressive dog. Her calm demeanor put him at ease more quickly than most, and she took exceptional care of him while we were away. I would definitely book her again, and recommend her to others.”
“Georgia was willing to accommodate me on very short notice to house sit our puppy pug for a full day. Our dog took to her quickly. I plan on asking Georgia to house sit again soon and would recommend her.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Junction
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 6,896 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
