“Lisa did a fantastic job with my animals! She was especially caring and attentive with my senior dog that has mobility issues. Would absolutely use her services again!”
“There’s not enough space on this page to mention all the wonderful things about Autumn. In a word, unbelievable. She is exceptionally caring, thoughtful, and meticulous. She went well above and beyond our expectations. She’s an outstanding communicator and we knew our pet was in the best possible hands while we were away. For honorable mention, she had to manage a tree falling on her vehicle during her stay. She gave our dog an enormous amount of attention and love in addition to leaving our home in immaculate condition. We can’t thank her enough.”
“Kristen is truly a phenomenal pet sitter and all-around wonderful person! She took care of our dog, cat, and fish for nearly two weeks while we were on vacation—and went above and beyond by also tending to our home and garden. We’ve entrusted our pets to Kristen for several years now, and every time we leave, we can rest easy knowing they’re in her incredibly capable and caring hands. She’s responsible, communicative, and genuinely kind to our animals. We feel so lucky to have found her!”
About: My family and I have always had pets around, from dogs and cats to hamsters, bunnies and birds, therefore, I have experience in all the care that our furry friends need. Experienced in feeding, cleaning, brushing, washing, walking, medicating, playing, and most important of all, petting. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, or just having someone check in and spend time with them, I'm happy to adjust to their needs and routine. Every pet is different, so I focus on following their normal routine and making them feel as comfortable as possible. I make sure they're fed, exercised, have fresh water, and receive plenty of attention based on their personality and needs. Safety is always a priority, and I'll follow any instructions you provide to ensure your pet is happy and well cared for. I'll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Justin was amazing with our animals! They really took to him right away, even our dog who doesn't like strangers. He sent pictures with them and they were all safe and happy. He was respectful of our home and accommodating to unexpected changes in our schedule. We will definitely be reaching out to him in the future. You made a very hard first time away from our puppy a care-free experience, which we would have never expected. Thank you!”
“Alicja was very attentive to our dogs needs and kept them entertained while we were away for a long weekend. She’s a very good communicator, which made us feel better while being away, and she helped out around our house. We’re looking forward to having her help us again in the future!”
“Jenelle did a great job taking care of our 4 dogs and 1 cat! She was very responsive and easy to work with. She sent daily photos and let me know how they were doing. She even watered my outdoor plants for me. We will definitely ask her again when we need a sitter!”
About: I worked at a dog/cat daycare and boarding facility for 3 years so I know dog/cat behavior, safely protocols and procedures well, and I am passionate about their wellbeing. I am currently working part-time so I am pretty flexible with my time and availability. I also love going on walks so having a pup with me would make it a lot more enjoyable. I will follow the instructions provided to me. I also love to give extra affection and attention when wanted and or needed. I am familiar with administering medications if needed.
“Gabby watched Winston (in-house) while my family was away for spring break. Winston is a high drive vizsla and can be quite a shock to people that aren't use to their relentlessness and lack of recognition of personal space. After meeting Gabby we knew Winston would be in good hands though. Gabby sent us updates (including pictures) and was quick to respond when we check-in. If you need someone to watch your pup, we definitely recommend Gabby!”
About: Growing up with both a dog and a cat, I’ve always had a deep understanding of the love and responsibility that comes with caring for pets. I’ve spent years walking, playing, and bonding with pets, so I know exactly what it takes to make them feel at ease. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve been fortunate to look after other pets, from energetic dogs who need daily adventures to cats who just want a bit of attention and a cozy spot to relax. I approach every pet with patience, affection, and respect, making sure they feel safe and well-cared for while you’re away. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them with the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am a teacher and will be available most weekends and some weekdays, depending on my schedule and school breaks. I will be happy to accommodate the best I can. As a sitter, I would treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care, just as I would with my own. I make sure to follow their routine, offering playtime and attention to ensure they feel safe and loved. I’m organized, clean, and reliable. You can trust that your pets and home are in good hands!

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 Loretto 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 Loretto 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Loretto 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
