“Kristen was so kind with our pets, she was very good at communicating with us during our trip and we could tell from the photo and video updates that our pets were very happy and well cared for. We are so appreciative of the high quality care and will look forward to booking her again in the future.”
About: With over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs, I understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, drop-in visit, doggie daycare, boarding, overnight care, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, giving you added peace of mind while your furry family member is in my care. I also have experience administering medications, providing basic training reinforcement, and caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs. I welcome dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Communication is very important to me, so you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your pet’s stay so you always know how they’re doing. My home features a secure fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, explore, and relax. Located on a quiet dead-end road, it’s a peaceful and safe environment where your dog can feel comfortable and at home. If your pet is happiest in their own surroundings, I’m also happy to provide care in your home. Maintaining your dog’s normal routine helps reduce stress and separation anxiety while giving you peace of mind that they’re receiving the same love and attention they get every day. Your pets aren’t just clients—they’re family, and they’ll always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own. I am currently working from home and my availability is very flexible. I can assure that your furbaby (s) is in the best hands and I prioritize their needs above my own I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe. Your furbabies will have fun running and playing outdoors and indoors! If you would rather me come to your home, I’m familiar with taking care of other dogs in the safety of their current environment including over night stays!
“Cassie is just amazing. Not only is she the best with our boys, but they absolutely love her! We feel so at ease when we need to leave them and she is in charge. Her communication skills are top notch, shes a super respectful houseguest, and we always feel so lucky we happened upon her.”
“Jordan was absolutely wonderful! She takes amazing care of my 3 dogs, all who require an extra watchful eye and care. She played with them and gave them lots of attention while I was gone. She followed all of my feeding and medicine instructions. My German Shepherds love her! I’d definitely recommend Jordan!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 405 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mapleton. 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 Mapleton 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 Mapleton 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 Mapleton 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
