“Jennifer was great! This is the second time we’ve used her and my boys love her! She was flexible and went out of her way to make everyone comfortable. We’re so happy we found her!”
“Jamie came out for a Meet & Greet ahead of time. She spent enough time to let me and our two German Shepherds get to know her. She did a great job housesitting and taking care of our dogs. Everything was clean and tidy when we returned, and the dogs were happy and healthy! We would definitely have her sit for us again.”
About: I have worked with horses as a teenager. And look after pets for a neighbor, family, and friends. I have a friendly dog that loves to play with other pets. Have watched puppies and senior. Right now I am at home full time so can have pets anytime and any day of the month. And have a car to drive. And have not met a dog that didn't like me. I a big front yard and backyard, have a big dog house outside, have a open living room and kitchen so have enough room for pets to move around and play. And I own a dog who is very friendly with other pets. And my yard is treated so pets don't need to worry about pests.
“Addie was exceptional in every way. She asked questions, followed my instructions and constantly kept me updated on Bella. I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”
“Casie did an amazing job with our three dogs while we were away — it was wonderful to come home to happy, well cared for pups and a clean, well cared for house! She was great about providing updates and photos and kindly offered to do anything else we needed while we were gone. Would absolutely recommend Casie, and are grateful our dogs were in such good hands!”
“Reed did a great job taking care of our older German Shepherds and house sitting for us. He took the dogs on walks and played fetch with them. I loved the pics he sent. Will definitely use him again!”
About: I’ve had pets ever since I was a baby and the age of 12 I started my own dog sitting/grooming/training gig. Ive been training, grooming and loving on dogs of every kind ever since! All of my family, friends, and neighbors can depend on me to take the absolute best care of their babies and I thoroughly enjoy it. I am currently working from home so I have full availability and plenty of times to care for and play with your fur babies to ensure all of their needs are met! I currently live in a beautiful home with a fenced yard and plenty of open spaces for playing, walking, and running! Your baby can be kept separately in my home if it would provide more security for you!
“Lydia was amazing. She did an amazing job taking care of our dog and communicated frequently. My dog had a great time with her and we would definitely book with Lydia again!”
“Brianna helped us with our sweet girl who has gone through heartworm treatments and has to stay calm and quiet for a few weeks. I was able to work knowing that my baby would be taken care of by Brianna. She loves dogs and knows what to do for those dogs that need special attention. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my baby and her brother.”
“I reached out to Francine on Rover and she was quick to respond with her availability. She made the effort to meet my dog before we left for vacation when i told her that hes a rescue and takes sometime to open up. She was punctual, communicative and had a lot of patience with my dog. Finally on day 3, he opened up to her! She kept the house neat and clean as well. Thank you Francine for taking care of my dog. I appreciate your time and patience with him. Will definitely be rebooking! Don’t hesitate to leave your pets in her care!”
“I really enjoyed having Sonia come and watch my puppies. She came before she was scheduled and met my puppies and us. She sent pictures daily and videos of my puppies, which made my anxiety much better. I would highly recommend her and plan on using her at a later date.”
“Megan is fabulous as always. She takes such good care of our elderly chihuahua who is on a lot of medication and gives him a lot of love when we are out of town. I know King is on good hands. We get lots of updates and pictures- which is xtra special.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Never stepped foot into my home without a very excited welcoming committee (that’s what we call our 4 dogs when they greet us at the door). That is until I came to college and no longer get any happy welcoming committees at the door. I miss it. So I am just hoping to help out others while also helping my self :). With that, I have experienced it all. Medications, cleaning, clipping nails, pills, and expert tosser for dogs that love fetch. My family and I have always gravitated towards big dogs but I love all shapes and sizes. I am a very active person and love to go on walks all of the time, so why not have the opportunity to bring a furry friend along! At home I am gentle and kind to my pets. Give them plenty of loving, pets, and a firm believer in walks. Long walks. Dogs make me happy, so I want to make them happy.
About: When it comes to dog sitting, what sets me apart is my unwavering commitment to treating each dog as if they were my own. I don’t just watch over them; I create a safe, loving, and stimulating environment that caters to their individual needs. Whether your dog loves a good play session, enjoys a quiet cuddle, or needs specific care, I tailor my approach to match their personality and routine. I’m also highly attentive to detail. From feeding schedules and exercise routines to any special medical or dietary requirements, I ensure that every aspect of your dog’s care is meticulously managed. My experience with various breeds and temperaments allows me to anticipate and respond to any situation with calm and confidence. Communication is key, so I make sure to keep you updated with regular photos, videos, and messages about your dog’s day. You can rest easy knowing that your furry friend is in capable, compassionate hands, and that they’re receiving the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. In essence, my service goes beyond basic dog sitting—I provide peace of mind, knowing your dog is happy, healthy, and well-cared-for in a home-away-from-home atmosphere. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, woven seamlessly into my schedule to ensure consistent, attentive care for each pet I look after. My day typically starts early, with morning walks and feeding sessions to kick off the day on the right note. Throughout the day, I balance pet care with other responsibilities, ensuring that playtime, exercise, and any specific needs are met. Incorporating pet care into my routine means prioritizing the well-being of the animals in my care. I set aside dedicated time blocks for walks, play sessions, and any required grooming or medical attention. I also plan regular check-ins and updates for pet owners to keep them informed and reassured. On a weekly basis, I assess and adjust my routine to accommodate any new pets or changes in care needs. Whether it’s scheduling extra walks, managing dietary changes, or organizing playdates with other dogs, I make sure that pet care remains a top priority, allowing me to provide consistent, high-quality service every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet's needs. **Caring for Pets in My Home:** When pets stay with me, they become part of my family. I take the time to understand each pet's routine, preferences, and any specific needs they have. I ensure they have their own space to relax, whether that’s a cozy bed, a quiet corner, or free reign of the house depending on their comfort level. I provide plenty of exercise through walks, playtime, and even yard time if applicable. Safety is a top priority, so my home is pet-proofed, and I supervise all activities to prevent any accidents. I also maintain a consistent feeding and bathroom schedule, closely monitoring any dietary restrictions or special feeding instructions. For pets with medical needs, I’m experienced in administering medications and handling any specific care requirements. Throughout their stay, I offer plenty of love, attention, and affection, ensuring they feel at home and stress-free. **Caring for Pets in a Client's Home:** When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to maintain their regular routine to minimize disruption and stress. I follow the feeding, walking, and care schedule provided by the owner, ensuring that the pet’s daily rhythm remains consistent. I’m meticulous about keeping the home tidy and respecting the client’s space while ensuring the pet has everything they need. I bring my own supplies if needed but always make sure to use the pet's familiar items, such as their bed, toys, and feeding bowls, to help them feel secure. Regular communication with the owner is key, so I send updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured that their pet is happy and well-cared-for. Whether in my home or the client’s, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment that makes each pet feel comfortable and cared for, just as they would be if their owner were home.
“Nate was such an incredible sitter! His attention to detail and genuine care of my two pups was beyond my expectations. I received some of my new favorite photos of my fur babies and I look forward to booking again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Kiefer
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 442 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kiefer. 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 Kiefer 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 Kiefer 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 Kiefer 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.
