“Kathy is a delightful and conscientious dogsitter. I was gone for at least 14 hours. During that time I received updates on what Jannie and Kathy were doing thru the day by texting me along with photos. Jannie adores Kathy.”

About: I have given medicine to senior dogs and I always send pictures of your dog everyday. If you want videos I can also do that as well. I always treat them as if I had my own kids. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart. I currently dog sit as my main job. I have been dog sitting the same dog for 6 years now. I used to dog sit more but unfortunately they passed due to old age. I make sure your dog will get the best care as if they were my own. I do daily walks with my dogs and some of the other dogs as long as the owner approves it. I have two German shepherds myself. They are very spoiled and get walked regularly. I make other dogs I watch get excellent care as if they are my own. Unfortunately I do not take dogs into my home.
“These two were a perfect match for our pup Lucy. They were attentive to all of her needs, and communicated with us daily. Our house and Lucy were both perfect when we got back home. We wish we could have Dominick and Mariam every time we go out of town.”

About: I had a chihuahua for 11 years and have been around pets for my whole life. Always willing to learn and grow with new experiences. Becoming a full-time college student soon but I will make time for your amazing pets! I will communicate with you if there are any schedule conflicts to address. I have a big fenced yard and plenty of room for your pet to roam and play. I do not have any other pets so that shouldn’t be a problem.
“Byrnnye was an excellent dog sitter and left our home immaculately clean, we appreciated her very much. She was very responsive in getting back to us with texts that kept us informed of our dog's wellbeing.”

“Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and our home. She sent photos and updates. We can tell our doggie enjoyed Cindy, because it was if we hadn’t left when we got back. She was calm, relaxed and happy. Very happy with Cindy taking care of our pet and home!”

About: Hello :) I’m a Mom to humans, 3 dogs, 1 cat and a bird. I know it can be super stressful leaving your pets behind. I also know it’s hard to find a petsitter that will take care of your babies like their own. That’s what I’m here for! I’ll make sure they have everything they need while you are away, including lots of love. During my visits I can walk them, play with them, clean cages, litter boxes, and provide fresh food and water. Basically anything that will make your pets more comfortable while you’re away. Loving them is my favorite part, and I have a helper that likes to join me sometimes, my daughter. I do not charge for second animal or more during a drop in or housesitting. I’m happy to watch dogs, cats, birds including parrots and caged animals. I can only board for one family at a time. Your furry friend will be treated like family while at my house. Between myself, my kids and my mom, they will have lots of attention and love. I do foster puppies for a rescue, so at times I may have extras in the home. My home is open to board small spayed or neutered dogs that can get along with mine. They will have constant attention and lots of love. They'll have the freedom to play inside and outside, also to lay on the couch and watch tv. For night time, they can sleep in a kennel, play pen or in bed with a human. They MUST be trained to potty outside. No potty pads. Unless they’re puppies of course. During Drop Ins: I’m happy to grab mail, water plants and put out the trash. During Housesitting: I can stay in your home for up to 10 hrs. Example, stay 9pm - 6:30am with a 30 minute midday drop-in. Up for negotiation! Can only do this for 1-2 nights at a time since I have a family and pets at home. I will NOT walk dogs when the temperature is 85 and up.
About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.
About: I’ve always loved taking care of pets and being active with them. Whether that is going for hikes or just playing around in backyards. It makes them happy and fills my soul as well. I take care of my College Deans dog and take her for walks 3 times a week or as needed to help hike with his busy schedule. I am currently a college student with a lot of free time on my hands. I always have availability on the weekends all day and have a very flexible weekday schedule as well. I adore animals and love to see them happy and healthy. I always treat my client’s pets as my own and give them all my time and attention while they are in my care.

About: I have taken care of both a great Dane and a Chihuahua mix both sides of the spectrum. One thing about me is, I’ll make sure your pets are well taken care of always. I’m currently working as a nanny with an agency. It’s pretty flexible because I can chose my own schedule. So therefore I can be flexible in scheduling. So in my home we let the cats and dogs have free roam. But depending on whatever the client prefers that’s what I’ll do.
About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes
About: I work from home and am able to provide round the clock care. I have a sweet 4 year old Bernedoodle who loves to play with other dogs. I provide 24/7 loving care at home. Pets will be well cared for by myself and my teenage children who will also play with them. I have a fenced yard and can also walk them daily. I allow them to be on furniture and have a doggy door they can use to go in the fenced backyard.
“Communicated with us throughout our trip. We forgot to tell her to take out the trash cans but she saw the neighbors doing it so went ahead and did that for us. She took great care of our dogs and we hope to use her again.”

About: I've worked with dogs for over 10 years now. I've worked as a dog groomer for petco as well for 1 year as well. Dealing with furry friends of all sizes, breeds, and personality. No dog is too big or too small to be handled in a professional and proper manner. As well as being a dog owner to a husky for over 10 years I pride myself on being able to handle any pup no matter what is required. I have groomed and bathed and dogsat irish wolfhounds all the way to teacup pomeranians. People tend to say that I have a great connection with animals and a very well corresponding behavior when interacting. I've spent lots of time developing my body language and reading skills in order to understand what a dog needs and how we can best help them. I can care for your pet throughout the entire week if needed. My schedule fits your schedule, whatever you need I will make it work. I do not offer in my own home. Only client residency. I can show up as early in the morning or as late night as you need me too.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Knightsen
Amanda was just such an excellent choice for my beloved dog. She made her so happy and clearly cared a lot. Her messages to members heartfelt and I could tell she loves what she does. On the logistics part, she covered all the bases of maintaining the dog with feeding and walks and treated the house with care

We put a lot of trust in Dylan to do a home stay with our two pet bunnies while we were out of the country for two weeks, and he didn’t disappoint. He was on schedule, sent photos of every mealtime, and we came home to happy, healthy bunnies and a tidy apartment. Couldn’t ask for more.

So grateful for Cheri’s care for understanding Tibby’s needs. With our dogs anxiety, she allowed the time for him to grow comfortable with her while providing him a safe, comfortable and fun environment. She played with him and took him for walks and shared photos throughout the day. Thank you for taking such great car of our boy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,927 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Knightsen. 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 Knightsen 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 Knightsen 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 Knightsen 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 Knightsen. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
