“I was incredibly nervous as this was the first time I have ever used a pet sitter, but my anxiety disappeared the moment I met David. He was fantastic from start to finish. He came over a few days before the appointment to meet Gracie and for us all to get acquainted, which put both me and my pup at ease. When the actual pet sitting day arrived, he was prompt, professional, and incredibly considerate. He sent multiple photo updates throughout his visit, which absolutely made my day and let me know Gracie was in great hands. It’s safe to say Gracie has found a new BFF! This dog mom is thrilled to have found such a reliable, caring person to stay with her baby when I need to be away from the house for an extended period of time. I highly recommend his services and will definitely be booking him again!”
“This was our second time having DeAnna stay in our home overnight with our chickens, dog, and guinea pig! She is super responsive and takes such great care of our pets. Plus she leaves the house clean which is always nice coming back from vacation! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Marissa did a great job house/cat sitting while we were away for a few days. She was punctual, communicated with us how things were going, and most importantly, took great care of our cat!!”
“Erika took superb care of our elder dog, Allie! Our house was also well taken care of so clean when we got home. I highly recommend Erika to sit for all the pets! We will be contacting Erika again to sit for our girl ❤️”
“Anna was the best with our pups! We will definitely reach out to her again when our pups need a sitter! She took the best care of them and they didn’t want her to leave when we got back. 10 out of 10 highly recommend Anna for top notch care for spoiled pups! Thank you so much Anna for making our daughters day super special!”
About: I have three pups of my own, (Roosevelt, 6 year old border collie, Sadie B, 5 year old dalmatian mix, and Chewbacca, 1 year old Carolina dog.) They are all rescues. I adore them, they are my babies. I would have many more if I had a farm and could talk my husband into it. I visit dog shelters regularly and become familiar with all the pups. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pups when you go out of town. Please contact me with your pet sitting needs. Thanks "Every once in awhile a dog enters your life and changes it." "A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself." "Be the person your dog thinks you are"
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 11. I have a yellow lab and love her to death. I love taking her to the park, creek, and walks all the time. I am look for a easy summer job and something fun before I go off to college. I do have experience with taking care of other animals as well. I watch my sisters poodle very frequently, and dog sit when my friends are out of town. I currently do not have a job so I’m free everyday mostly. I have a very flexible schedule and am very quit to communicate with text and call. I have a yellow lab to keep your dog company if they come over. I do not have a fenced yard but can easily take them on a walk or even the dog park that is right down the road from my house.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life but I’ve worked with dogs professionally for about a year now. I work at dog training and boarding facility in a few different roles. I’ve been a trainer, kennel technician, bather, as well as in the office scheduling boarding stays for our pups! I’d love to care for more dogs after work! I’m good at it and I enjoy it so much! I currently work 8am to 4pm. But I have plenty of time to spend with your pup after work! We can go for walks, go to the park or have a bath and get cleaned up! I can come to you home and care for your dog there or I can pick them up, take them out for some fun to get some energy out, and bring them back home safe and sound. I can crate them in my SUV for easy and safe transport.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, I currently have 1 dog & 4 cats. Animals have always been apart of my life & I love caring for them!! The bond between a human and an animal can truly be unbreakable & I would love to form a bond with yours! I’m 22 & love spending my free time outdoors and with animals. I’ve rescused, adopted, & have even delivered puppies before. They’re beautiful animals who deserve the very best! My house had 8 acres perfect for walks, hikes, and even a creek for swimming! I don’t mind traveling to you & for your fur babies!! I previously have worked in a vet and have a general understanding of pet emergency care. Let’s chat about what you’re needing and see if we work together well! Thank you in advance for trusting me! - My schedule can be flexible and I can make it work for you and your pups needs! I love outdoors so your pups will get all the outside time when with me! I have a fenced yard and can crate your dog if needed! I have other dogs but they can easily be separated if you prefer!
“There aren’t enough words to express how absolutely amazing Rachel is! She took outstanding care of my sweet little cat and the house. I would without any hesitation let Rachel watch my cat and house again. It was super nice to receive updates and pictures each day from Rachel. You can tell she truly loves animals and is so very respectful. Thanks Rachel, you are awesome!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats the last 7 years. In a boarding and clinic environment. I have experience with every size dog and cat as well as medicine administration (oral or injection). I’m usually home with my fur babies unless I have to run errands. I might be gone up to 4 hours. When boarders are in my home I try to stay with them more until comfortable. Then if they are social can introduce my pack and slowly meet one by one. Eventually everyone will be able to be out and play. I have a fenced in front yard and fur babies to play with your pets. We have a variety of temperaments and ages, based on your pups body language I would probably have the right fit for them :) or they can also have alone time and be rotated out to avoid other dogs. I crate all my dogs at night before bed. I have cameras around my yard and outside the house for security as well.
About: I absolutely adore all dogs and have had several growing up. I love the companionship they provide and believe they deserve the best just like us! I would love to help provide that for those who need it! I understand that everyone raises their pups differently and I am very detail oriented and try my best to provide the best. I like to fill my free time by keeping busy, I am a full time student and thought that I could put my love of animals to good use! So in all I would love to help those in need of a little help time to time with their animals. I am just a caring student trying to make extra money doing something I love! I have plenty of downtime in between my day to day routine to help out with any animal needs and whatever else need to be I have a spacious back yard and love to run in my free time but also don’t mind staying in and giving plenty of pets
“Shannon was awesome! Sent lots of pictures and updates of our pup! We came back to the house exactly as we left it and a very happy pup! Will definitely be rebooking in the future! Thank you!!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl. I always shower dogs with so much love & my annoying baby voice haha. I absolutely adore dogs. I am very flexible with my schedule since I am a student in college taking online courses ! I am available on evenings & weekends. I care for my pets with lots of toys & treats! When it’s time to go potty, I use a leash for my dog due to living in the city with no fence or backyard.
About: I bring the magic where ever I go, especially to visit the dogs and cats I watch. I love to take them on adventures. Some of my regulars include the 2 cutest Dachshunds downtown. I’m experienced with all breed and sizes! I am a local contractor so my schedule is very flexible. I can do mid day walks or drop ins as long as I don’t have a job to do! I will always take your dog on regular walks and play with younger dogs or any who have the energy. I know how to pet the grumpiest of cats without them walking away! I will give your pet a lot of attention as I know they might be missing you and want them to be relaxed as possible!

FAQs for House Sitting - McEwen
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 200 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across McEwen. 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 McEwen 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 McEwen 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 McEwen 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 McEwen. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 88% 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.
