“Selena took great care of our dogs!! She was great at communicating, the dogs were very happy and the house was tidy when we got back :) we would definitely have Selena watch our dogs again”
“Aspen is such a great house sitter! Our pups were well taken care of and given all the overnight cuddles they needed. Thank you so much Aspen for keeping our dogs and our home safe.”
“Kate was very flexible and accommodating with our dog who was on crate rest and needed some extra attention and help. She had excellent communication and left our home in great order. We will definitely use her again to watch our pets!”
“Myrna house sat and watched our dog and cat for 5 days while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures throughout our vacation of taking the dog out to the park, store, etc which made us feel more comfortable knowing he was well taken care of. She even got both of them toys and treats! We're very appreciative and will definitely use her again!”
About: I've been looking after dogs, primarily small ones, for quite a long time now. Have had to feed and walk and watch over them plenty of times over the years for family members. Currently unemployed, so my schedule is quite free, which includes all reasonable hours of the day. Currently unable to watch over animals at my place of living. I personally care for my own cat and one of my mother's dogs on the daily, but the house itself isn't fit for me to watch over any additional animals.
“It was a pleasure having Deborah sit with our 14 year old pup Dexter. Deborah quickly responded to our initial inquiry and met with Dex and I shortly afterwards. She communicated the day before her scheduled sit and arrived promptly at an agreed upon time. She asked all the appropriate questions about feeding, Dexter's daily routine, and what she could do to keep him comfortable during our absence. Deborah communicated during her sit to let us know that all was well. We returned to a happy dog and a tidy house. Would recommend Deborah and we will be using her services again.”
About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I grew up in Mexico with animals around me for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, and turtles. My brother even had snakes and spiders! Animals have always been part of our family, and I believe caring for them starts with both love and respect. I’m a cat person at heart. Connecting with a cat feels special to me, whether we click right away or need a little time to get to know each other. I’ve also lived with dogs my whole life, and I love their company. A walk through a beautiful park always helps me relax, and it’s even better with a dog by my side. I’m a graphic designer, so I spend a lot of time on my laptop. Outside of work, I enjoy watching movies, exploring parks, hiking, and practicing yoga. I also love visiting museums and galleries whenever I get the chance. I’m new to Rover, and I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m punctual, tidy, and happy to follow the routines that help them feel at home. Pets are family, and I know how much it means to have someone you can count on looking after them. My days usually include a mix of design work on my computer and getting outside for a walk. Pet care fits nicely into that rhythm, and I enjoy having animals around while i'm working. Before we book, let’s talk about your pet’s usual day—when they eat, when they go out, and how much company they need. I’ll let you know what my schedule looks like so we can make sure it works for everyone. I’ll follow your instructions, keep their food and water areas clean, stay on top of litter boxes, and be careful with doors, gates, and leashes. I’m tidy myself, so I’ll treat your home with care. I’m most comfortable with friendly pets, but they don’t have to love me right away! I’m happy to give them space and let them come to me. I’ll send photos and little updates while you’re away, and reach out if anything seems off.
About: I have owned and cared for dogs all my life and will provide them with plenty of love and attention while you are away! I am a former veterinary technician and dog trainer, currently spending most of my time tending to my foster dogs. So, I’m very comfortable providing any medical management or medication admin necessary! My availability is quite open and flexible, with preference of morning visits. I love animals of all kinds and promise to treat your loved ones in just the way I would hope for mine to be treated and keep them as happy as possible while awaiting your return! I currently do not work so my availability is quite open for pet care, with a preference of morning or early afternoon visits if dropping in for a walk or play I have a fully fenced yard in a home I own but I do foster small dogs, so animals must play well with others if visiting my own home. Otherwise, I will leave your home just as I found it and be very respectful of privacy and not disrupting any pet’s comfort!
“Erin was great with Lily and Willow while we were away. She accommodated our unexpected travel schedule and checked in to give us comfort while gone. Willow hads allergy-related paw issues and she addressed them as instructed and also noted how it progressed or lessened. Both our girls loved her and we'd have her back in a heartbeat. She watched them in our home, and the house was tidy and well cared for. Thank you, Erin!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Chloe! Leaving our two pups for two weeks while we were in Europe was nerve-wracking, especially since our one dog has pancreatitis. But Chloe made the entire experience stress-free. Her communication was fantastic. She sent regular updates with pictures and videos, so we always knew our furry friends were happy and well cared for. Things got even better when Chloe calmly handled a flare-up of our pup's pancreatitis. She administered the medication with ease, keeping us informed throughout the process. When we finally got home, we were greeted by two ecstatic and healthy pups. It was clear they had been showered with love and attention in our absence. Chloe is a true dog lover and a fantastic pet sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone needing someone reliable, caring, and capable of handling unexpected situations with their pets!”

“Grace was very professional and came prepared to the meet and greet. My home was spotless when I came back. Quick to respond and sent me pictures everyday. Totally recommend and will book again if our schedules line up.”
“Jordyn was wonderful! Our dogs seemed very comfortable even during the first meet & greet. Jordyn is a great communicator, sent pics and let us know things were going well. Looking forward to our next trip knowing they will be in good hands!”
About: I’ve been helping take care of my own pets along with helping family friends pets for years. I am responsible, reliable and genuinely love being in the presence of dogs. My full time job is generally Wednesday to Fridays with some occasional variation. Weekends normally free! I enjoy walking in my free time and would love to use my time more wisely and walk a pupper in the process. **No bookings after 8pm will be accepted for safety of both parties with lack of sunlight. ***If calendar shows unavailable, still welcome to ask if available. Flexible schedule even when marked unavailable. ****Drop in visits do not include a walk. Have fenced home with one cat currently. Many loops around the neighborhood well suited for dog walking. Going to others homes, I like to meet before hand and make sure them and their pets love me before commiting to a booking if possible. I listen to all instructions and keep constant communication throughout bookings!
About: Have been a pet family for many years. Beauty was a rescue from a dump in Hawaii and was the best dog and great experience! I am retired, currently pet-less and looking for satisfying ways to fill my day. I have the time and energy to care for your pets. Will care for your pets in your home as I am renting and can’t have them here. Will keep their routines as normal as possible and update you with photos.
“Regan took excellent care of our pets. She was very communicative and engaged, sent us photos and check in’s, left the house just like she found it, and was very friendly and personable. Highly recommend Regan and hope to book her again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Ladd Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 4,552 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ladd Hill. 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 Ladd Hill 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 Ladd Hill 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 Ladd Hill 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.
