“Johnna house-sat for us while we were away at a memorial service in Los Angeles, and she took care of both our cat and dog, and our house. She was fabulous. She went above and beyond, as usual. It is lovely to have someone so trustworthy take care of our home while we are away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“Oh, where do I even begin? Raina sitter showered Benji with so much love and attention! They made sure to follow all of Benji's special needs. They even took the time to learn about his quirks and preferences to make him feel comfortable. It was clear that they genuinely cared for Benji like their own furry family member. They truly went above and beyond to ensure his happiness and well-being. Benji couldn't have asked for a better caregiver! ?❤️?”
“Fatima did a wonderful job watching our Goldens and taking care of our home! She sent wonderful photos, followed our requests very well to make sure the pups were safe and happy :) we are very cautious who we trust our pups with and Fatima has been so trustworthy. We look forward to having her back again,we are repeat clients! :)”
“Shelby is amazing! She took care of our pup while we were vacationing in Costa Rica. I was nervous about leaving him because he’s quite clingy with my husband and me. She checked in daily, sending me pictures and updates. It made me feel at ease knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Alexis was the best! We would totally recommend and can’t wait to use her again. She was so communicative and really went above and beyond. She sent updates, followed the instructions we left, and even washed and remade the bed before leaving. Brisket loved the snuggles and daily walks.”
“Jasmine was nothing short of amazing! She took care of our two dogs and our house for three days while we were on vacation. She is a natural with animals, making our rescue dogs feel safe and secure. They loved her! On top of taking them on walks and playing with them, she also kept our plants alive during the heatwave and fed the multitude of wild birds who frequent our feeders. She even laundered the sheets on the bed where she slept. All and all, we found her to be trustworthy and reliable, just like one of the family. We're so lucky to have found her.”
About: Hi, I'm Stacy! Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for a huge variety of breeds—from powerful and energetic pups like Dobermans and Pit Bulls to speedy Greyhounds and tiny Yorkies. I understand that every dog has a totally unique personality and requires a tailored approach, whether they need confident leadership, gentle patience, or just endless belly rubs. Currently, my home is run by my two amazing boys: Winston, a sweet Cocker Spaniel/Shih Tzu mix, and Pablo, my big, goofy rescue hound mix. I am very accustomed to strict feeding routines and prepping home-cooked meals, specific vegetables, and daily supplements. If your dog has a sensitive stomach, allergies, or a highly specific diet, I will follow your instructions. Whether your dog is a tiny senior looking for a quiet cuddle or a big, goofy rescue needing confident handling and long walks, I can't wait to meet them! I’m currently completing my degree, which gives me a highly flexible daily schedule and plenty of free time. I am available to drop in most days at almost any time, whether your pets need an early morning breakfast, a midday walk, or an evening play session. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I am highly comfortable managing medical needs and have hands-on experience administering daily injections for sick rescue kittens. I bring the same level of discipline and alertness from my military career to pet care, ensuring strict adherence to any medication or specialized dietary instructions you leave. I always maintain a calm environment and stay hyper-vigilant during walks or drop-ins so you can have complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, and I truly believe they’re one of the best parts of the world. I was a dog owner for over 10 years, and after losing my sweet girl to cancer, I really missed having furry friends around. That experience reminded me just how much joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. From dogs and cats to fish and hamsters, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m a family guy with a comfortable home and a safe, secure environment where your pet can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. Whether your companion needs walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾❤️ I work part-time in the evenings and am available during the day to spend time with and care for your pets. While I’m at work, my wife and daughter are home and will be there to care for them. Your pets will always have someone at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will receive care, attention, and companionship around the clock. I have a good-sized, secure backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time, as well as a public walking path right behind my house for those who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some exercise. I love taking dogs for walks—it’s a great way for them to get fresh air, exercise, and enrichment while keeping them happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my home.
“Jennifer & her daughter did a great job taking care of Luna and even took her to the river to cool off and play in some water! Her daughter was very professional and sent multiple pictures and updates! Thank you!”

I follow every instruction you give me! and I am very communicative person when it comes to taking care of your fur baby, i know your animal is important to you, and will be a priority to me when i watch them!
About: Ever since I was 10 I've taken care of dogs. I have experience in many different ages of dogs from newborn puppies to full grown. With the school year starting I am unavailable Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, when I am available your pets will be getting the best care possible and my full attention I will always be willing to feed, clean, play and walk with your pets if they need it. I can stay overnight too as well.
“We have never had anyone stay at our house with our animals before, so the idea of leaving them with a complete stranger was very daunting. Sydney was absolutely wonderful with our two big, rambunctious dogs (2 year old huskies) and four cats. Our house was exactly as we left it and she sent lots of updates so we could see everyone’s sweet faces and how much fun they were having without us! She was terrific about updating us when she got here and letting us know how everything was going. She was always very responsive through the whole process, and it was very clear our animals were all comfortable and enjoying their normal routine with her. We will absolutely have Sydney back, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have experience caring for my own two dogs and previously cared for my cat for many years. Through caring for my own pets, I’ve gained experience with feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention or comfort. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, love, and care I would give my own. I attend college fully online, so I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day. Your pet will receive consistent care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with plenty of grassy areas for potty breaks and walks. Because I attend college fully online, I’m home most of the time and can provide frequent bathroom breaks, exercise, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine, and I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. For everyone’s safety and comfort, my own dogs will always be kept completely separate from any pets in my care. They will never be in the same room or have direct contact. This allows me to provide a calm, safe environment while giving your pet my full attention and ensuring every animal remains comfortable.
“We usually do drop ins for our kitties but did house sit this time and it worked out amazing! Jazmine is responsible, dependable, and communicative. We get a pretty detailed recap of the day and lots of videos and pictures. Of course the kitties loved it and housesit worked a lot better for my cat that picks at his food throughout the day. We didn’t have to worry at all. Ty Jazmine you are the best!!”
About: I have volunteer experience at an animal shelter, so I have experience working with and caring for dogs, cats, and even rabbits! I have also taken a couple dog handling classes through the shelter. I have owned dogs all my life and have trained a few of them as youngsters in basic commands (sit, stay, come, down, etc). I am also a horse girl and thus have pretty impressive upper arm strength for my size, so I can handle your large dog that pulls on walks. I am transitioning from a part time job to full time pet care with Rover so I have full flexibility and am able to zip over and give your pet some TLC whenever I'm needed. I have a dog of my own so I also understand and can provide what a pet needs in a typical day. In my house, pets are treated like family. From the moment I enter your home or meet your pet, it becomes part of my family too and I will care for it as such. I believe compassion, patience, and a good sense of humor are essential to good pet care regardless of whether you're inside or outside the home. An environment of fun, love, and trust will be created when I care for your pet and I'm sure a great bond will form whether I meet that pet one time or 30 times.
“Diana is so kind and generous! We have two animals and she came over twice to make sure she understood how to take care of them. Each time, she was a complete delight and also she kept me updated with updates on how my fur babies were doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She will be our go-to sitter from now on”
About: I’ve been a dog owner all of my adult life. My kids are grown and my two dogs crossed the rainbow bridge. I have lots of love to give your babies while you are away! I work full time. I’m available to take care of your pets by 5pm and all day on my days off. I am a nurse and have a rotating schedule including every other weekend. I’m available to stay at your home with your pets are welcome to stay at my apartment. I’m also available for short days, drop ins, or simply a walk.
“Awesome dog/cat sitter. Roxy had a great time and Kolby was completely relaxed when I got home. I love being able to leave my babies with a capable sitter but a bonus is happy pets when I return to a clean home. Thanks, Christina!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - McClellan Air Force Base
Cheryl is a sweet lady and did a great job taking care of our dog and home. She sent pictures and gave updates multiple times/day and even sent us a video! She happily did everything we asked her to do and even stayed an hour longer than requested because our dog wasn’t settling down well for bed. We highly recommend Cheryl for dog and house sitting!
Dylan was great with our two dogs and cat, even providing extra help since one of our dogs was still recovering from a recent surgery. He was very respectful of our home and provided frequent, thoughtful and often humorous updates about all our pets! Would highly recommend Dylan to anyone as he is a true animal lover!
Drew was phenomenal with Meeko and Belle. I was traveling abroad for two weeks, and it was such a blessing to find someone who can genuinely care for blind pets—especially an elderly one with a younger, mischievous sibling. Drew was incredibly responsive, sent regular updates, and took amazing care of both the pets and the house. Belle is blind, senior, and sometimes experiences separation anxiety, but Drew was patient, gentle, and attentive with her. Meeko is a curious troublemaker, and Drew kept him stimulated while keeping the “trouble” under control. I’d 100% recommend Drew to anyone. I’ve already told my coworkers and friends—he’s truly exceptional.
Madeline is awesome. This was the second time she has watched my two dogs. She stayed for four days this time. I received numerous updates and photos. When I checked in Madeline was always quick to respond. I highly recommend her. Madeline is welcome any time she’s available.

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 McClellan Air Force Base 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 McClellan Air Force Base 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 McClellan Air Force Base 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.
