“Rachel was an amazing house and dog sitter! She was super communicative, sending regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease while I was on vacation. She was also incredibly flexible when my travel plans changed slightly. I came home to a clean and tidy house, and my dogs seemed happy and relaxed, which is always my biggest concern. Rachel was so respectful of both my home and my pets, and I would definitely choose her again for future trips! Thanks again!”
“Dominique did great with Bo and Bobbie. He was professional, patient, and caring. I’m very thankful he was able to accommodate my last minute request. Thank you Dominique!”
“Bailey took great care of our large menagerie. The dogs snuggled with her and the cats did cat things. We came home and everyone appeared happy and healthy and not terrible upset with our absence. Will book with Bailey again for future stays.”
About: I have taken care of multiple pets throughout my life. I am familiar with caring for puppies, middle aged cats/dogs, and senior cats/dogs. Animals hold a very special place in my heart & they deserve nothing but love. I can fit your pets care and needs into my schedule without a problem. Let me know the timeframe you need your fur baby taken care of, & they will be first on my list of priorities! I have a fenced yard that is very spacious for your fur baby to roam and play. There are many shady areas for your pet to rest from playing. Fresh food, water, and of course head pats will be available at all times. 🐾 If the weather is too much, we will hangout inside and do whatever your pet is in the mood for, whether it be playing, eating, or resting. They will be cared for and loved.
“Brandon was great. He gave me lots of updates while watching my Lizzie girl. He took great care of her and my house. I would recommend him to my friends and family in a heart beat!”
“Jordan stayed at our house for 5 days while we were on vacation. She did a great job taking care of the house and all our critters. Everyone was in excellent hands and we could breathe easier while being away from home!”
“This is the first time we had Joy come and stay with our dogs while we were out of the country. First of all she was available to stay at our house through Christmas Day. When she came to meet the dogs, Waldo, our reserved Australian shepherd, jumped up in her lap. She was great at communicating and sent lots of pictures. The dogs were happy to see us when we got home but the JRT kept looking for her in the guest room. She washed towels and sheets and remade the bed! We will definitely use Joy again. Pretty much perfect Rover experience.”
“Ashleigh comes over twice a week to walk my pups and so when I went out of town, I knew exactly who to contact to watch them! She was reliable as per usual, sent great pictures, and my dogs love her. I would highly recommend Ashleigh for any of your pet needs!”
“Sierra took great care of my four rescues! She gave the dogs their meds and baths, fed all, cleaned the litter box daily, took the dogs for two walks a day, and even incorporated some raw food into one of my dog’s diets. She kept in touch, and sent photos too. I highly recommend her!”
“This was ourfirst experience with Rover and we could not have been more pleased with Madison! She cared for our pets as if they were her own. Prior to her visit, we had a vet emergency and explained the issue and asked her to keep an extra eye out him. Well our pet had the issue come up while away and Madison did such a great job notifying immediately and took to the vet to receive the medical attention. In addition, during her visit, she sent updates on all the other pets. I highly recommend Madison!!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and currently work at a doggy daycare where I care for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities every day. My job has given me hands-on experience supervising playgroups, understanding dog body language, and making sure dogs stay safe, happy, and comfortable. I’ve also taken care of my own dogs for years, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, shy dogs, and older dogs who may need a little extra patience and care. I’m also experienced caring for multiple dogs at once and making sure everyone feels safe and included. I’m happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure your pet feels relaxed and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and well cared for! Caring for animals has been a regular part of my routine through both my professional experience working at a dog daycare and caring for pets in my own life. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, and monitoring pets’ well-being. I make reliability a priority and ensure every pet receives the attention and care they deserve. I prefer to care for pets in their own home because it keeps them in a familiar, comfortable environment and helps reduce stress. When I provide in-home care, I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times, keep the home clean and respected, and give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also provide regular updates with photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
About: I have volunteered with both dogs and cats of all kinds (big and small) and have pets of my own (a Lab mix, a Shih Tzu, and a cat) and have had pets since I was a child. This has taught me that every pet has a unique personality and different needs, so I tailor my care to help each pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy as I have done with my own and any pet I’ve encountered. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers a slower pace, or just wants extra cuddles and attention, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your pets will be treated like family, and I’ll give them the same patience, love, and care that I give my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure both you and your pet have a great experience. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and will do my best to accommodate your scheduling needs. We will start with a meet & greet so I can get to know you and your pets and vice versa :) I always follow your care instructions and tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their time with me :) peace of mind for you is my number one goal!
“Denisse was awesome. She was so attentive and very flexible. She sent pictures constantly to reassure me. My baby girl was in great hands. She went above and beyond, and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Timothy responded so quickly and really helped us when our other booking had to unexpectedly be cut short! He was very professional and was very communicative through the entire booking and sent so many pictures and updates, which we loved! He really was able to help us enjoy the rest of our trip by giving us a peace of mind with how well our pets were taken care of!”
“This was my first time ever having someone outside of family watch my dogs. I asked a few people if they were okay with meeting me prior to me booking. A few didn’t want to. Ms: Dora met with me twice. Once to see if it’s a good fit and the second just to go over other details. Both times all the dogs were excited and comfortable around her. She took the best care of them and i love the updates we got. She even sent my active duty son a few videos of his baby we have. I am so truly grateful for this! If anyone is considering booking I honestly say I will be rebooking with Ms, Dora! Thank you so much for the love and care of my fur babies and for caring for my home as if it was your own! I can’t express how grateful we are for your love to Rocky’s Kora and Layla.”
“Gabby is the best! This is the second time she's watched our dogs. She reached out to meet again beforehand because it had been awhile and one of our dogs is very skittish with new people. It was a great idea and helped our dog acclimate during her stay. Would, and have, recommended to friends.”
“Ella did a great job with our animals on a short notice booking. She was very helpful and communicative while we were away. Our dogs were very happy and well taken care of during our time away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Macdona
Wendy is seriously a phenomenal sitter. I'm so happy to have found her. She made my trio feel at ease as well as myself. She communicated daily and really made my boys feel loved while I was gone and was extremely patient with my youngest and smallest who is very finicky. The boys enjoyed Wendy so much that I've already rebooked for a longer trip. I would definitely recommend her.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Wendy! She took care of my three dogs — Jack, Finn, and Harvi — and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met, I knew my pups were in great hands, but she still managed to impress me even more throughout the entire stay. Wendy treated each dog with so much love and attention, giving them exactly what they needed — whether it was playtime, cuddles, or calm reassurance. Jack adored her, Finn followed her around like a shadow, and Harvi soaked up every bit of affection. It was clear they felt safe, happy, and completely comfortable with her. Her communication was excellent as well. She sent regular updates and photos that brought me so much peace of mind. I never had to worry for a moment. Wendy is truly one of a kind — reliable, caring, thoughtful, and absolutely incredible with animals. I feel so grateful to have found her, and I will absolutely be booking her again. If you’re looking for a dog sitter who will treat your pets like family, Wendy is the one!
Sophia is wonderful! She was very communicative about what was going on with our boy. She was patient with him as he was a little shy with her at first. Sophia sent me pictures throughout her stay which I absolutely loved! I highly recommend her and will ask her to stay with our boy again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Macdona
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Macdona on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,532 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Macdona. 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 Macdona 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 Macdona 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 Macdona 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.

- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
