Dustin walks my dog daily, and this was his first time watching him at my place. He did an incredible job and is super flexible and easy to work with. My (giant) dog loves him, and he took great care of the place. Highly recommend.

Sam was so calm and kind. He was conscientious. Sam was a perfect fit for my elderly, hungry, plushy dog.

Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.

Kat is the best dog/house sitter we have ever experienced. I am a hover mom, it is something I am working to overcome. We have never had a bad experience using Rover, but we had bad experiences before finding Rover, which lead to me becoming a hover mom. The first night we were away, poor Kat had so many phone calls from me. But we have cameras for just the dogs, again we have had serious issues so you have to cut me some slack. I could see Kat taking such good care of the girls. She took them to the park on the one and only day it was not raining. Because it was raining Kat had the extra difficult task of keeping our wood floors paw print free, and she did a great job. The girls were loved up a lot. The older dog, Thelma, was carried up the stairs every night. Thank God Kat is strong because Thelma is large and in charge. Louise can be a brat, but she grew very close to Kat quickly. Kat remembered to put a leash on Louise who is a runner every time and to lock the door every time. Louise needs time out in her playpen when she gets too tired, she is a small dog who thinks she is so big. Kat is the only sitter we have ever hired that understood a cranky furbaby is just like a cranky child, they need their own place and space to chill out. Kat used the playpen just the right amount of time. Kat also used just the right timing and amount of medication to control Thelma's bone pain. Honestly, I would be hard pressed to find even the smallest concern about the care the girls received. We will definitely be hiring Kat again very soon. The girls got too clingy due to Covid restrictions so we plan to take more short overnight trips just to get a break from being furbaby parents. The sleep in does us good. She even gave the girls a treat and the special note when she left was just adorable. I hope after this raving review Kat is available for us, but I really just want all animals to have a a great sitter experience. Kat will give you this experience.

Bev was super attentive to our pups!! She was also very communicative, sending us updates and photos daily of what the dogs were up to and responding quickly when we had questions. She really took great care of our dogs and we will be using her anytime we need a dog sitter. She's part of the family now! She's the best!!

Gabrielle was amazing with all 4 of our fur babies while we were away in vacation. She sent daily updates and pictures so communication was great. Not too much and not too little. She was even able to get some love from our highly antisocial kitty. I will definitely be reaching out again when we need her again!! Thank you Again Gabby!

My husband & I were really nervous to have someone house sit, but not only was Ryan awesome with our Yorkie & Fox Terrier but we returned to a clean house. He followed all of our well & gave daily reports on our fur-babies. Thanks so much Ryan!!

Vivian was wonderful! She met with us at our house ahead of our trip and we were able to make sure she and Leo were a match. They got along great. During our trip we received a ton of pictures and updates, she took amazing care of Leo! Viv stayed at our home and went above and beyond, she cleaned up the downstairs and brought in the mail. We felt extremely comfortable with her and will absolutely use her again!!

We could not be happier with the care our dog, Jada, received from Amy. She communicated and sent pictures and videos of our happy pup. We appreciate that she was especially attentive during a thunderstorm when she kept her calm. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.

I knew that Tom had taken good care of Rudy when I returned home and Rudy gave me a brief hello and then went back to being petted from Tom! Rudy had clearly bonded with Tom! I have complete confidence that I could leave Rudy with his new friend again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mainland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 5,691 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mainland. 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 Mainland 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 Mainland 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 Mainland 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 Mainland. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
