“Sarah was fantastic! She was so sweet with our three girls at the meet & greet, and they were in great spirits when we came home. Our American Bulldog, Boxer mix, and elderly kitty cat all loved her! She kept us updated while we were away and left our house clean and secure. So thankful for her comprehensive care over the holiday.”
“Angelica was amazing with Missy, as always! She stayed at my house for almost a week and left it clean (she even took out my trash bins without me asking!). She also gave daily updates on Missy.”
“Kory did an amazing job with watching our senior dog and two cats during our wedding and honeymoon abroad! He was very kind, considerate, inquisitive and communicative! Would highly recommend him for in-home petsitting!”
“Kat is absolutely AMAZING and I cannot endorse her enough! I have an elderly cat and a dog, and while I was out of the country for almost two weeks, Kat kept me up to date with pictures and regular communication. They absolutely LOVED their time with her, and I will *definitely* be using Kat every time I travel! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 And whatever other "perfect score" you can think of”
“Katelyn was very communicative and responsive during our sitting. We had a fluke issue with one of our house alarms while we were gone, and Katelyn was very patient with helping us figure out the problem and find a solution. She took great care of our pets and sent many photos. We would recommend her!”
“Kellie did an amazing job with our aging pup Jordyn and our goldfish Lared! She was excellent at communication and did an amazing job! We couldn’t be more happy with our choice, and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking!”
“Alexa is by far the BEST pet sitter we have ever had. We came home to happy dogs and a clean house! Never worried for one second that everyone wasn’t being well taken care of. Totally recommend her and would definitely book her again. Thank you ever so much!!!!”
“I am so thankful Connie agreed to take care of my 3 kitties for my long vacation. She went above and beyond with their care and was very communicative. I would 100% recommend Connie to others and book again in the future :) Thank you again!!”
“Annabelle is a perfect find for us! She loved our four-legged babies like her own. We loved that she would send videos and photos each day while we were away! We came home to a clean and picked up home showing she respected our space. She’s also just a sweetheart and she will always be our number one pet sitter!”
“Kimmie was great!! Kept us updated with daily status and photos. Would definitely recommend if you want peace of mind that your pet will be left in great hands while you are away.”
“Hannah took wonderful care of my dogs and my home while staying here. She made sure to check in with photos and updates, and was able to be with them around the clock with caretaking and cuddles. They were so happy and exhausted when I arrived home!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Lauren. She took such great care of our dog and truly went above and beyond while we were away. It was clear from the updates and how happy our dog was when we returned that he was well loved and well looked after. What really stood out was the care she showed not just for our dog, but for our home as well. Everything was spotless and exactly as we left it, which gave us so much peace of mind while traveling. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring.”
“Shameray always does a wonderful job watching our dogs and cat. She is very responsive, friendly, and our critters love her. She sends daily updates with pictures. We have always been very appreciative of the care with which she sits our house and pets.”
About: What Sets Me Apart I’ve had dogs as companions all my life, and after losing my sweet boy Dewey, caring for pets brings so much meaning to my days. Because my schedule allows me to be present in your home for a good portion of the day, it's wonderful to share space with a pet and keep them company in the place they feel safest. Here is what sets my care apart when I stay at your home: Senior Pet Expertise: I have a deep fondness and specialized experience with senior dogs. I know how to read subtle body language, accommodate slow-moving joints, stick strictly to medication routines, and give them the extra patience, gentle care, and comfort they deserve in their golden years. Preserving Their Normal Routine: Traveling can be stressful for pets, but staying in their own home minimizes that anxiety completely. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique personality and keep their daily habits, favorite sleeping spots, and walk schedules exactly as they like them. Attentive Companionship: Since I spend plenty of time on-site during my stay, your pet won't be sitting in an empty house waiting for a quick check-in. They get genuine presence, routine, and a fair bit of extra spoiling and pampering while you’re out of town. Conscientious House Guest: You can enjoy your vacation with complete peace of mind knowing your home is secure and cared for. I treat your property with absolute respect, keep things tidy, handle mail/deliveries, and ensure you return to a clean, welcoming home. Since I work online from my laptop, my day naturally centers around whoever has four legs and is hanging out near my feet! Being based right at your house throughout the day means your pets get a consistent companion to snuggle, chat with, and stick right to their usual routine. After owning a home in Austin for 20 years (and missing my sweet boy Dewey every day), I care for your home with the exact same love and meticulous eye I gave my own. You’ll come home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless, well-cared-for house—and I’m always happy to share local references from neighbors who know me best! My primary concern is for your pup to feel secure and loved. If it's the first time we met, I spend extra time at the start of the visit to get connected and determine their needs. We quickly build a bond of trust, creating a great experience for them.
“Our dog is fearful of meeting new people and Brandi's calm energy was great for him (and my anxiety about trying a new sitter lol!). She dealt with feeding him turkey through his muzzle and all the other details of a first meeting we wanted to cover. 10 stars on communication and reliability. She did wonderfully with Georgie on our 'trial run' before our longer trip and I'm so happy to have found someone we can trust our anxious fur baby with while we're away.”
“Monica was great and I highly recommend her! I booked her for a 3 night stay with my dog and two cats, which I was super anxious about. It was the first time I was leaving them in a while given that one of my cats went on subcutaneous fluids. I was ?very anxious about him potentially missing his night time dose so, despite the long commute, Monica came for the M&G and a second visit for extra practice with the injection. For the stay I was willing to work around her work schedule with a dog walker, but she was lovely enough to take most of the days off so that she could fully focus on the crew. During my time away I got plenty of updates and I came back to a clean apartment and content animals.”
“Layla and Gracie were very meticulous while caring for our three dogs and house for four days/nights while we were away. Reliable, responsive, and responsible. We appreciated the photos and look forward to their next stay.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Manda
Elizabeth was great with our pups - she sent us lots of pics & had great communication. The house was super clean & organized when we got back from our trip which was a lovely bonus. She even drove us to the airport - WOW - so kind! We would love to have Elizabeth back at any time.
We had a great experience with Jasiris staying at our house to watch over our two pups! She sent some really sweet pictures and videos while we were gone. She was great with being especially careful with one of our pups who was injured, giving her medication and making sure our other pup was keeping her distance. Thanks so much Siri for taking such good care of our girls!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 4,314 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Manda. 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 Manda 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 Manda 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 Manda 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.
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.
