“Alex and Kelsey took wonderful care of our home, our German Shepherd (Cadence), and our cat (Mio) for a week while we were away. We came home to a house that was just as clean and organized as we left it, and both pets were happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. They were easy to communicate with, professional, reliable, and gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. It was obvious they treated our home with respect and kept everything safe and secure. We wouldn’t hesitate to have them house sit for us again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring sitters.”
“We have worked with Junny and Jomhel multiple times now and they are wonderful. Junny communicated with us primarily and is always willing to do a call or visit before our stay to assure they are prepared. One of our dogs has epilepsy and requires a very strict medication regimen (which is relatively new) and Junny reached out to warn us that his new medication was running low, even picking up a refill while we were away. We have always felt completely at ease leaving our animals in their care. Very trustworthy, reliable, and respectful of our home. Big thanks to them for their help and wonderful care of our dogs.”
“I had a last minute flight delay and needed someone to spend an extra night with my pup. Jacquelyn was quick to respond and adapted well to the situation. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my dog ❤️!”
“Tatianya was great with the animals, and was able to stay extra time to look after them when our return home was delayed. It gave us a lot of peace of mind while traveling, to know they were being so well cared for. Thanks, Tatianya!”
About: Animal lover with 30 years of experience owning, sitting and caring for fur babies. Both cats and dogs (other pets!) I am capable of caring for all sizes, age ranges, providing medicine, potty training routines, bathing, etc. I work from home with lots of down time to take care of your pet as they need. Potty breaks, walks, playing will be plentiful! I have a house with 3 large yards and provide great secured and gated space for pets to play! Pets are welcome to explore freely, and sit/sleep on furniture and bed. With lots of down time working from home, potty breaks can be taken as needed. Close to parks and open space. I am also fully capable of also keeping any crating routine you need to maintain when you are away. I also have a car for dogs that are able to go on doggy adventures like hikes, beach, dog parks, etc. We have a service dog named Hoss who loves all animals. He really enjoys making new friends.
About: I got my first pet bird when I was seven and have been helping take care of many animal friends ever since! I have decades of experience in dog-sitting and I was a long-time cat owner. I am currently a student with mostly online classes, so my schedule is generally fluid and I’m willing and able to incorporate pet-sitting into my routine just about whenever. I will not be able to host animals at my apartment so I will follow whatever rules you set out! I understand the first rule of animal care is love and patience and it will be my job to make them feel at ease when their person is absent.
About: I have been a pet and house sitter for the majority of my life. I truly enjoy spending time with your animals and making sure they are happy and healthy while you are away. This can include anything from daily snuggles on the couch, to walks around the neighborhood, play time in the back yard, or chasing lasers around inside. I have sat for a variety of animals, but prefer to stick with dogs and cats, but if you have other types of pets we can negotiate. I do not do well with giving shots but can handle a medication schedule if needed for senior or special needs animals. I am currently a remote student working on a bachelor's degree. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be gone from my home so I can come care for yours and your pets. I am trustworthy, quiet, dependable, reliable, and love animals. As I already have pets at home, I do not offer my own in-home care. So, it would be best for me to come to you.
“Yliana was AMAZING!!! She updated us with pictures/videos of my girls often. We could tell our girls were comfortable with her right away- which is not usually the case for one of my girls as she’s very timid. This gave us such peace of mind & we were so grateful for that! While we missed our girls tons, we didn’t worry at all & we were able to enjoy our vacay! We will Definitely keep Yliana in mind for future sittings & you should too!!!!! 😋”
About: Calm, professional pet care rooted in trust, structure, and reliability. I’m the owner of Humboldt Helper, a local LLC providing dependable support for homes and pets throughout Humboldt County. I offer thoughtful walks and sitting that go beyond a standard visit. Because I don’t have pets of my own, your pet receives my full focus in a predictable, low-stress environment. Expect attentive care, clear communication, and a relaxed, happy pup. With Humboldt Helper LLC as my primary focus, I’m able to offer a flexible schedule and prioritize pet sitting clients. Care is designed to support consistency while adapting to your needs, fitting naturally into your daily or weekly rhythm. Walks and visits can be scheduled on a regular basis or arranged as needed, depending on what works best for you and your dog. Care is provided with a calm, thoughtful approach, taking time to understand each dog’s routines, preferences, and signals. The goal is for visits to feel familiar, low-stress, and supportive, blending seamlessly into your routine while helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: From a very young age I have experience caring for my own dogs and cats, as well as for my family members and friend’s animals. Currently as a college student, I have been hired many times to care overnight for dogs and cats and stay with them for extended periods of time. As a runner and athlete I love walking dogs and taking them for runs too! I am very patient and reliable as I also am a nanny for work who looks after young children. I love animals and spending time getting to know people’s pets! Also, I have my own transportation so any emergencies can be dealt with, and I can also pick up pets. At the moment the family I nanny for will be away for some time, so my schedule is completely open, and my classes are online as well for school. With lots of love! I always make sure to go above and beyond to keep the house clean and make sure pets are comfy and happy.

FAQs for House Sitting - King Salmon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 159 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across King Salmon. 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 King Salmon 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 King Salmon 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 King Salmon 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.

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.
