“Karen stayed at the house for 4 days looking after my boisterous German Shepherd and high energy GSD mix. She was quick to respond to any texts and managed the house sitting and dog sitting with ease. Dogs had a great time with Karen and I don’t believe they missed me one bit. I have already booked Karen for my next trip and absolutely recommend her services.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

“Sydney was absolutely wonderful! Before our appointment, she took the time to meet Mona, get familiar with our area, and understand all of her needs. On the day of the appointment, she was punctual, and kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciate it. Most importantly, Mona was so happy to spend time with her! I highly recommend Sydney and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Sydney!!!”

About: I have always had pets in my home, from a baby to kid to teen to adult. I will ensure your pets are loved and taken care of as if they were my own. I enjoy all breeds of dogs. I hope I get to love on your pets when you are not able to! I am a full time teacher and coach off on summer vacation until the end of July. I am available to watch your pet pretty much any time of day and night. I have a fully fenced yard and also have crates in my home if needed. I am comfortable using crates as I have crate trained all of my dogs.

She took great care of our cats and our home, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands while we were away. We really appreciated her flexibility and reliability and would happily book her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up on a ranch here in Texas with many different dog breeds of all ages. I have plenty of experience and I’m comfortable with any breed! I’m stay at home mother with 2 little girls who are 3 and 1. We love pets but don't have any of our own. We go outside for walks through the day frequently and enjoy giving pets plenty of attention. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to care for pets. I live in an apartment complex with a fenced dog area, so dogs can safely get outside, play, and get some exercise. I’d make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, and lots of love while they’re in my care.

About: Hello There! I’ve been a loving dog owner since the age of 7. My parents got me a Pomeranian named Chloe and I’ve loved dogs ever since. I have two small pups of my own right now (a Shih-Poo and a Boston Terrier), so I’m used to big personalities in small bodies, lots of energy, and all the little quirks that come with small breeds. I also did a puppy training program with my Poodle-mix, which taught me a lot about building routines, positive reinforcement, and just understanding puppy behavior in general. So whether your dog is still in that wild puppy stage or they just need some extra patience, I have PLENTY of experience. I’m gentle, attentive, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will always be safe, cared for, and paid attention to with me. I send updates, I pay attention to the little things, and I make sure your baby feels comfortable while you’re away. I’m very relaxed, and my dogs have full freedom to roam around their home — and I will make sure guest get that same comfort and freedom while still being safe and supervised. I work from home, so my babies go out every 2 hours for potty breaks, plus a good walk before or after my shift. Your dog will fall into that same routine with me - breaks, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. When time permits, I love taking them to the on-site dog park (only when the dogs are alone though) Your fur baby’s safety is my top priority. My home is clean, calm, and fully dog-friendly. I supervise all play, keep doors secured, and make sure every dog is comfortable, safe, and understood. I treat every dog with patience and respect. I’m gentle, responsible, and I pay attention special attention to their individual personalities to make sure they are comfortable. My babies have free roam in a safe environment, and any dog in my care gets that same comfort while still being watched, loved, and protected. “You can trust that your dog will never be left alone for long, and they’ll always be in a space designed for their safety and peace of mind.

About: I genuinely feel immense joy around fur babies!! I’ve helped take care of a few dogs for friends and I have a cat I own and take care of at home. I have experience in walking, feeding and pet sitting. Very communicative providing updates to owners with pictures to keep them informed. 19 years of experience with cats and 2 years of experience with dogs. My schedule is pretty open! Worked for my previous company for 11+ years and currently working on my own business, but my calendar on the app is updated. I will communicate with owners regarding availability if messages are recieved, very responsive. I listen to the owner and what the pets needs are to ensure that I’m 100% available to the well being and care of the pet. I’m always attentive, ask any important questions and check to make sure the pet feels safe and comfortable around me.

“Whatever I say here will not do justice to how incredible my experience has been with Ariel. She is PHENOMENAL! I have left my kitten Croissant with several cat sitters and boarders in the past, and nothing and no one has come close to giving me the peace of mind I had leaving my cat with her. Ariel looked after her for 9 days, at my place; by the end of the period, my cat felt Ariel was her mum! Croissant looked happy, healthy and well looked after. Also - the fact that Ariel left my place in mint condition and even showed the courtesy to do the laundry etc. was such a nice touch and very much appreciated. It goes without saying Ariel is my go-to sitter moving forward. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!”

About: I have been around and owned a number of different animals all throughout my life. I have a very soft spot in my heart for dogs and kitties. I used to find stray dogs as a kid and do my best to find them a loving home. Pets make everything better! I am currently a student doing all my schoolwork online from the comfort of my home. I run a couple errands during the day but they don’t keep me away from home for long. I also have a 15 year old daughter who does homeschooling and also loves pets just as much as her mom. There’s usually always someone home to care for the animals. I have a very well fenced in backyard. I have a big front yard also that I take the pets out in but on a leash of course. I also have an elderly small female dog. I have a male young cat, he’s inside and outside so he’s not always around

About: Dogs have been a consistent and meaningful part of my life for years, and caring for animals is something I approach with intention, structure, and deep respect for their individual needs. I began walking neighborhood dogs in high school, cared for my own dog, Lady, for 15 years, and began fostering in 2024 in her honor. Since then, I have fostered 8 dogs, including multiple litters of puppies and adult dogs with a wide range of behavioral, emotional, and medical needs. My experience includes bottle feeding, potty training, basic training, senior care, medical recovery, and working with shy, anxious, reactive, and high-energy dogs. This has given me a strong ability to read behavior, adjust my approach, and create a calm, structured environment that supports each dog’s wellbeing. I currently have cats in my home, and any boarding or in-home care is thoughtfully considered in advance to ensure safe and appropriate compatibility. I prioritize slow introductions, supervision, and clear routines so animals feel secure and stress is minimized. I live an active lifestyle, and dogs in my care receive consistent walks, enrichment, and attention. I am comfortable with crate training, medications, and caring for multiple pets when appropriate, always prioritizing safety, structure, and stability. My approach is simple: thoughtful care, clear communication, and a calm environment where animals feel safe, understood, and well supported. Pet care is intentionally built into my daily routine, and I approach each booking with structure and consistency so pets feel secure and settled. I organize my day around feeding schedules, walks, enrichment, and check-ins, creating a predictable rhythm that supports each animal’s comfort and behavior. I am typically present throughout the day, with occasional short absences for workouts or errands, and I plan my schedule in advance to ensure I can fully meet the needs of each pet I take on. I only accept bookings when I am confident I can provide attentive, reliable care and maintain a calm environment. I provide calm, structured, and highly attentive care rooted in extensive hands-on experience with fosters, reactive dogs, puppies, seniors, and medically complex animals. I currently have cats in my home, so any in-home care is thoughtfully evaluated in advance to ensure safe, appropriate, and stress-free compatibility. I prioritize slow introductions, supervised interactions, and consistent routines to create stability and reduce uncertainty for every animal in my care. I am comfortable with crate training, medications, and supporting a wide range of behavioral needs, and I take care to ensure each pet’s environment is calm, predictable, and well-managed. When caring in a client’s home, I follow established routines closely to maintain continuity and reduce stress, treating each home with respect and professionalism. I accept bookings when I can fully support the needs of the pet and provide the level of care I would expect for my own.

“Frida cared for my big scaredy-cat Luna in my home for three weeks, and I was very pleased with her performance. She is a very kind and caring pet sitter, and she knows cats. Some sitters think they only need to leave food and clean the litter box, but Frida understood that Luna also needed company. This was the most comfortable I've felt leaving my cat and home in someone's care. I came home to a clean home and safe and healthy kitty cat. I intend to use Frida's services again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Kendleton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 670 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kendleton. 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 Kendleton 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 Kendleton 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 Kendleton 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kendleton. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
