About: Experienced with small and large dogs, from Maltese to Malinois and Golden Retrievers. Reliable teacher who loves walks, playtime, belly rubs, and caring for pets. I am a teacher on summer break. I am available mostly weekdays, but open to weekends when free. I would only have to leave for an hour to go to the gym. I enjoy getting outside for walks during the day and love taking dogs to parks and open trails for fresh air, exercise, fun, and adventure.
“Kimberly did a great job with our new puppy, while we were away! Lots of playtime outside and tried walks with her. It was so reassuring to have Kimberly in our home, making our puppy feel comfortable. Daily pictures and videos were definitely appreciated. We hope to have Kimberly stay again soon!!”
“We had Hannah stay for three nights and she did a wonderful job. I have French Bulldogs so I am very particular about their care Hannah provided updates and pictures that kept my mind at these. She was very responsible and took wonderful care of the house. Thank you again Hannah!”
“We loved having Alexia stay with our pup! We came home to a happy bouncing pup, and we knew he was so very well taken care of by the way Alexia sent pictures every day, having all kinds of cuddles and fun. Would recommend her 110 % and can’t wait to have her sit for us again.”
“We had an amazing experience with Addison! From the moment we left, communication was outstanding. We received regular updates, photos, and messages throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and loved. It was obvious that she took the time to get to know their personalities and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and safe. She was incredibly reliable, professional, and kind, and we never had to worry about a thing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative pet sitter!”
“Patti did a fantastic job with our boys. She walked them daily, cared for them with compassion and made sure they were always ok when she was not there. She kept us informed with daily pictures and notes, which we greatly appreciated. We were happy at how well both dogs bonded with her; especially Ollie our oldest who tends to be more introverted than his younger sibling. We hope to use Patti again in the future for any of our planned trips. Very grateful for her care of our dogs.”
About: I’ve worked at a dog hotel, and I’ve pet sat for both cats and dogs. I’ve never met a dog that didn’t like me, and I’ve never met a cat that didn’t tolerate me. I’m a student pilot, so some days I have about 2 and a half hours where I won’t be available. Otherwise I have a very flexible schedule and can spend all day or any time caring for your pet. I don’t have any pets of my own, but I’m good at making anyone’s pets friendly with me. I’ve done daily check-ins and up to two weeks staying at someone’s house to keep their dog active and happy.
“In a word, Shawn is "great!". He stayed with our furry little ones almost a week while we were traveling and was a fantastic fill-in pet parent and house guest. Pets were happy and house was immaculate when we returned. Couldn't ask for more!”

This will decrease once school starts again. I am willing to do late night and early morning visits as well. I am willing to deal with multiple dogs in a clients home. If dogs need to be walked separately I can do that as well. I am use to having to deal with different personalities of dogs and know that the clients know best. Whatever directions the clients give me I will be sure to follow.

I pride myself on being loving and attentive to all animals, especially when considered another beloved member of the family.

“I always feel that my dog is well taken care of when we have Mary in the house. I get the best pictures! Having Mary has opened my husband and I up for more travel. We are so happy we found her!”
“Samantha was amazing! She took such great care of all our pets. Our dog was so relaxed when we got home. This was also a last minute booking since our sitter bailed on us and she really saved the day. She sent lots of updates and pics too so we could see all our babies being well care for. We’ll absolutely use her service in the future.”
“Allie was amazing with my 2 pitties. She’s thorough, trustworthy and cared for my dogs like they were her own. I’m so happy I found someone I can trust with my dogs when I leave town. Highly recommend!!”
“Being a first time dog owner and needing someone to watch Taylor was a bit nerve wrecking for me but I was easily calmed when we met ahead of time and saw how much Taylor enjoyed you. Thank you for caring for her like she was your own. I have no doubt we’ll be seeing you again in our future needs. Thank you!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Kouts
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 282 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kouts. 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 Kouts 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 Kouts 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 Kouts 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kouts. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
