“Meghan was awesome! Our dogs loved her and her dog Raven!! Meghan was great at communication and sent us lots of pictures of our pups. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs :) Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I work from home and I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their personalities! I have had dogs my whole life ranging from a mini dachshund to a great dane. With my schedule I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time. I have a puppy who loves playing with other dogs and he seems to help make pets feel more comfortable while I'm boarding them! I work from home so I am able to fit in pet care easily! I already have 3 dogs and a big backyard so pet sitting does not change the daily routine much for me. I have a high privacy fence for the backyard to ensure all dogs stay securely in the yard during potty breaks. My home is already puppy proofed for both large and small dogs to accommodate my own pets.
“James was a great dog and house sitter! He sent plenty of pics and communication was excellent. We really felt like he cared about our dogs and gave them lots of attention! Will definitely be booking with him in the future.”
About: 4 years around dogs from big dog ranch & past work at puppy stores. I do watch my neighbors dogs as well. Frequent updates (with pictures) of your dog. Former police officer😁 Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pup company, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely from feeding schedules to favorite toys and habits. I’m patient, attentive, and always prioritize your dog’s well-being. You can count on regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or extended care, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your dog’s safety always comes first. I carefully follow all instructions, keep a close eye on behavior, and make sure your pet is always secure whether we’re at home, on walks, or during playtime. I’m patient, observant, and quick to respond to any changes in your dog’s needs. I maintain a clean, stress-free environment and treat every dog with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind and make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for at all times.
“Kiara did an amazing job taking care of Pippin. I came back to a happy, well cared for dog. Kiara was careful to follow instructions left for Pippin's care. She stayed in touch while I was gone and left the house in good condition. I had to change plans just before the trip and Kiara was flexible and accommodating. I would be happy to have Kiara care for Pippin again.”
About: Hello! I grew up with pets and have always had an easy time with all types and personalities! I enjoy leading an active lifestyle, and being around animals is always a plus. I'm in my mid-30s, highly responsible and also easygoing. I work in film production, and provide pet care/sitting services on the side. I can provide a safe and welcoming experience for your pet and easily adjust to meet their needs. I have a very flexible schedule and am readily available for questions or concerns. I can also provide photo and/or text updates on your pet while you're away! It's very rewarding and exciting getting to know pets of all breeds and types. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! **Note for larger dogs** Larger dogs are accepted on a case-by-case basis as I am petite and would not want anyone to be inconvenienced if I am physically unable to handle the care of their dog. I work in film production and often have periods of completely open availability. Any potential schedule changes will be brought to your attention as soon as possible! I prioritize a calm and stress-free environment for your pets, while also providing exercise and play time if needed! I go at their pace to provide a feeling of comfort, safety, and (hopefully) familiarty.
“Savannah was an amazing pet and house sitter. She went above and beyond to not only take care of our furr babies, but take care of our house too! She is very accommodating, communicative and great with our animals. Thank you once again for taking care of our zoo!”
“Kelli goes the extra mile to make sure that my fur babies are loved and taken care of. I feel so comfortable and lucky when I know she is with my pets when I’m out of town! Kelli will continue to be my choice of pet/house sitters every time!”
“Leslie was an absolute dream. Our other sitter fell through, so we reached out to Leslie and she was amazing with the pups. She was great at communicating and took our puppy on lots of walks. I would recommend her over and over again. We appreciated her help last minute so much!”
“Taylor took excellent care of our dog and cat! We have quite a few "special" requirements for our senior four-legged family members and Taylor was up for the task. She stayed in our home and fit in like a champ! In fact, we've booked Taylor for another (longer) visit. Thank you, Taylor!”
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a little girl. I know how to care for them and make them feel properly loved while also being cautious of those who might be more reserved. I am currently home from college, so my schedule is very flexible. I also have a car so I can travel to your dogs at anytime needed. I can housesit any days of the week or weekends as well! While in your home or walking your dog I am able to love on them and give them that extra attention they need while you aren’t home.
“She has an amazing energy and they babies were immediately drawn to her calm and composed nature. She is very loving and takes extra care to make sure they are alright.”
About: I cannot remember one time in my life that I have not had a dog. I have been fortunate enough to volunteer with Orange County animal services where I have adopted my baby Angel, ‘Pug’ 10 years ago! Today, I have 2 pugs (‘Pug’ & Meep) as well as a chihuahua mix (Beige). Through every thing that life has thrown at me my dogs have always been the light at the end of the tunnel and I truly would give my life for my dogs as a result. Any time I have free time I am bringing my three babies to my favorite dog park, lake Baldwin! I am the ultimate dog lover and I can guarantee that any pup that I am fortunate enough to care for will get every bit of my love and attention. Fur babies deserve nothing less. This is truly my dream job I do work from home so I am able to guarantee 100% supervised care for your pet for their entire stay. When my day gets started, my puppies day also get started with morning meals and morning walks. Afternoons consists of play time, sometimes baths, and a night meal before a final walk before bed. I live in a 3 bedroom home where my puppies have free rein of the living room, kitchen and hallways. It’s a one big happy family environment with lots of toys and room to play.
“Jessica was wonderful. This was our first experience with a sitter, so I was nervous. She exceeded all of my expectations. Jessica answered all of my questions, was here when she said she would be, played with Bear, took him on nice long walks, sent lots of pictures, and left the house in perfect condition. Thank you so much! We will absolutely have Jessica sit for us again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,911 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mabel. 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 Mabel 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 Mabel 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 Mabel 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.

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.
