“Sarah was truly fantastic! I could tell my babies were happy and healthy in the photos and when I got home! She took great care of them and the house. Couldn't recommend her enough!”
“Angelica was amazing with our 2 pups while we were out of town. She stayed in our home so they could stay in their routine, gave our boy his seizure meds on time, and didn't laugh at us over our over the top feeding routine. When we came home the house was as we left it (if not better). She communicated the entire time, sent pictures, and kept us updated on all the dog news while we were gone. We already have her booked for another trip and hope to use her again and again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old providing quality care for family members and friends. Looking forward to caring for your fur baby too! I'm currently available most days except Thursday evenings and Saturday and Sunday mornings. I have a very flexible schedule and able to assist as needed. However you need me to care for your animal I will oblige. I do not do anything more than what you tell me to, and if need be I am more than happy to do some light housekeeping.
“Michelle was absolutely great taking care of our little one and our home while we were gone for 13 days. She is a rare find and a truly calm, gentle soul. She definitely earned all her great reviews. We did a meet and greet first where she came to our home and we knew after that meeting that she was the one! Finding a great pet/house sitter is harder than it seems. So many on Rover don't really seem to understand the meaning of house sitting. It means you actually live in the house with the fur babies not leave every 4 hours and be gone all day. Rest assured Michelle will live in your house so your anxious fur baby remains in their comfort zone and routine. I work from home so I wanted to mimic that level of human presence that out little guy has become accustomed to and she was able to provide that. Michelle took care of little chores like watering plants and feeding our fish, but most importantly she took care of our little baby with plenty of play time and constant companionship. She was very responsive over messenger even though we were in another country. And when we came home the house was perfectly clean and in order. We highly recommend Michelle for pet/house sitting and we will certainly be using her again!”
“Kimmie was excellent— took great care of our pets and sent lots of updates! We are so grateful for how much care she took to make sure our fur babies were taken care of and loved.”
“Jeremy did a great job with his overnight sitting with Raven ❤️. Jeremy was responsive to all questions, along with taking care of Raven and our home for the four days we were traveling. I will be having Jeremy help out while on future trips…. Thanks Again Jeremy D”
“Brittany was able to come last minute to watch my dog while I was out of town for the day. She was very patient and understanding of my old boy and did everything that I asked.”
“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”
“Dorian was terrific. From the moment we met him we felt confident that our kitty and our home would be well taken care of. He did not disappoint. We would gladly have him stay anytime we are away.”
“Samara was amazing with our Luna. She took excellent care of both our home and Luna, followed all of our care instructions, and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. She even accepted a last-minute booking on New Year’s Eve, which we were extremely grateful for. Samara has great communication skills, and it’s clear that she truly sees and cares for dogs as if they were her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving. We are very grateful for her kindness and care toward Luna.”
“Raven treated our (3) pets like her own, they were very happy & well cared for. We had a literal book of instructions and she seemed to have it all figured out & everything was in great order when we got back. We will definitely call her next time we travel!”
“Trevor was a wonderful and professional sitter for our two pups. He stayed in our home and spoiled our dogs with attention and care. We got regular updates and pictures and came home to an extremely clean house. I highly recommend Trevor and plan to use him again for future stays! Thanks, Trevor, for everything!!”
“Katelyn kept us informed about Bella throughout our vacation. She sent lots of pictures too. We will definitely be using her for all of our long-term dog sitting needs.”
“Delanie was absolutely fantastic! She kept us updated throughout our entire trip with frequent messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also let us know right away when our senior dog wasn’t feeling like herself and kept us informed on how she was doing. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and treated them like her own. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our babies!”
“Gabriella was wondering with my dogs and taking incredible care of my home during her stay. She sent plenty of photos and updates, and I could tell that the dogs were at peace with her love and comfort. She is the best!”
“Shelby was very quick to respond and worked out the plan with me. She arrived right on time and I could see she immediately connected to Maisie. She was very kind and careful with our dog who is undergoing a lot of stress. While I was at the hospital with my husband, Shelby sent photos of Maisie relaxing, playing in the yard and giving kisses. Shelby will definitely be a future trusted resource to care for our precious girl.”
About: I’ve been a vet tech since 2021 and am currently continuing my education through the Penn Foster Veterinary Technician program. I currently work 2 days per week at an emergency/specialty hospital in Austin. I’m very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or a little extra support. I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals throughout my life, including cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish. I’m Fear Free certified and trained in low-stress handling, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable in my care. I’m also RECOVER CPR certified, which means I’m trained in pet CPR and emergency life support. Whether your pet needs medications, extra patience, or just a calm and caring presence, they’ll be in capable hands with me! I have mostly open availability for drop-in visits, house sitting, and night boarding at my own home (reserved only for feline friends). My schedule includes mornings, evenings, and weekends. Pet care is already a huge part of my daily life, so fitting in visits and maintaining consistent routines for your pets comes naturally to me. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about availability to make sure your pet receives reliable and consistent care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while providing attentive, low-stress care. I’m trained to monitor for any signs of illness or discomfort and can confidently administer medications, including oral, topical, and injectable treatments if needed. If boarding in my home, I live in a spacious two-story house with a large, fenced backyard. I also have a secure catio for supervised outdoor time for kitties who enjoy it. I always introduce pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in a new environment.

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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Manda
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 4,291 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manda. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
