“Kaitlyn was kind, professional, and very considerate! I greatly appreciated the daily report cards and updates. My kitty was clearly content and happy when I got back. She did a wonderful job!”
“Alyssa has been amazing with our Luna. We are new dog owners and she has provided us so much information and good advice in taking care of Luna. Thank you so much for being patient. We appreciate you! ?”
“Charlotte was the perfect house guest and we would gladly have her watch our house and Arlo again. She was very responsive, sent photos, and took Arlo for long walks. Super grateful that we found her as last minute as we did and would highly recommend.”
“Just got back home last night to a very peaceful, happy, calm boy kitten. House was lit for an easy arrival home: Thanks Nathan! I hired Nathan to stay at the house here for the week I was gone. I felt that was the best arrangement for this young male kitten I adopted only a few months ago. Nathan provided a "top of the charts" kitten sitting service and the two of them kept each other busy with play time and plenty of company. Paolo is a pretty energetic, busy kitten and quite social too. Nathan sent me a couple of pictures each day and a couple of play time videos showed up over the week too. I really did appreciate and enjoy Nathan's professional approach to the care taking of my young cat and I highly recommend his services. I'll be scheduling with Nathan on my next out of town trip. Thanks again, very much Nathan!”
“Kyle stayed with our dogs, one of whom is recovering from surgery and can’t be left alone right now, so that we could go to The Rolling Stones. He was on time, communicative and even sent us some pictures so we knew everything was ok. We will definitely book again!”
“Did a great job hanging out with our cat. He isn't the most social boy, but immediately took to loving on both of them. They did a great job watching over him and communicating.”
“Nancy was great! She was on time, sent me updates and my pups loved her. She was extremely respectful with regard to COVID, bringing her own pillow and towels. I'll definitely have her back!”
“Maya is the BEST! She has watched our girls twice now and she treated them just like we do....spoiled! She sent such great updates and pictures to us and really made us worry about them less than we normally do. I almost hate to give this review LOL because I hope she is available the next time we need her! THANK you Maya”
“Michelle was an amazing pet sitter. She was my first live-in overnight sitter and she helped me feel so at ease about the whole process. She communicated well prior to the pet sitting dates, and she sent me daily updates on how things were going along with pictures of my very happy dogs while in her care. I have three dogs with different needs and abilities and they all had a great time with her. I would absolutely use her again for future pet sitting needs!”
“John did a wonderful job taking care of our greyhounds and our asthmatic cat. He provided great communication and we appreciated his flexibility. I would highly recommend him as a sitter and would absolutely book him again.”
“Meaghan did an excellent job taking care of our house and two spoiled senior chihuahuas, while we are on vacation for a week. She was professional, friendly and caring. Louie & Banjo got plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention, both dogs were happy and well cared for when we returned. The house was clean and well taken care of. Meaghan went above & beyond! We’re so grateful for all the love and attention she gave the dogs and the house. Highly recommend Meaghan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter and house sitter!”
“Arielle helped us out during an emergency when our other sitter cancelled and took over our dog's care. She was communicative, responsive, and respectful of the house. Our dog was so content and well socialized during his time with Arielle. Already have her booked for house sitting again.”
“Danayt took wonderful care of my dog and house, and I would definitely hire her again! She sent lots of updates about how my dog was doing and was very professional and friendly. She even cleaned up the house before I returned. I highly recommend her!”
“Juan was great with our big fur-baby Tristin! Juan took Tristin on a few adventures while we were gone. When I was getting my post vacation snuggles with Tristin he told me it was fun to be a big boy dog while mom and dad were on vacation. 🐾❤️”
About: I grew up caring for my family’s cats and dogs, and I currently have two cats of my own. I also spent six months at a dog boarding and training facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. During that time, I gained hands-on experience with everything from dogs who were learning how to walk on a leash for the first time to dogs who struggled with fear, reactivity, and aggression towards people or other dogs. I learned the importance of patience, consistency, trust, and meeting each dog where they are. I’m also the go-to pet sitter for friends and regularly provide in-home stay, caring for multiple pets at a time. Whether your pet needs a little extra patience, lots of playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet behind. I’ll treat them like my own and do everything I can to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I work a flexible full-time hybrid job, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability throughout the week. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and overnight stays, with weekend availability when scheduled in advance. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Carlynn took great care of our pups and home while we were away for a week. She kept us up to date with pics and is a great communicator. She respected our home and even helped with a little laundry before she left. When we got home our boys were happy and we were happy. We hope to book with her again in the future.”
“Kristy is amazing and we are so lBlessed to have her watch Kaya and Big. Genuine, caring and authentic care for our doggies this weekend. We were able to enjoy the event knowing that the doggies are in great care and hands with Kristy.”
“Sebastian did an excellent job house sitting and caring for my 11 year old German Shepherd. He was extremely accommodating to the needs of my dog and my requests and was very easy to work with. This was my first time utilizing a service like this so I was nervous but I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. My home is clean and my dog is safe and happy. Plenty of care and attention. He sent pics of Kane doing his favorite things and kept me updated while out of town. I’m very thankful for his help and will absolutely be requesting his services in the future!”

We had Erica back to house sit out dogs and rabbit a second time and she did a great job again. Our house was spotless when we came home and our dogs were relaxed and happy. Communication during the stay was great and she helped out with a few small requests I had around the house as I remembered them. I am planning to have her house sit for us again and gladly recommend her.
We would absolutely recommend Sherri. She took the time to drop by twice to meet us and our furry family prior to looking after them all for just over a week. She was calm and relaxed with our dog who takes a while to warm up to people, recognising that she just needs to come to being comfortable with new people in her own time. Our opinionated and determined, elderly cats took a shine to her quickly and Sherri was willing to work with them so they would be able to get some outdoor time while she was watching them. As it turned out they were able to just continue their normal routine which kept them very content. Sherri's communication was excellent throughout the entire time and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our furries and home were in safe hands. We had another booking with Sherri in place before we got back!
Jeanie was such a great sitter! Took lovely care of my dogs and was so easy to work with. It was raining the last afternoon she was with them and she took them out three times to get them to go potty before I got home. It’s a small thing but it was soooooo appreciated that I didn’t need to walk them as soon as I got home from traveling. I would definitely recommend her!!!
Lynlee has been nothing short of incredible for our family and pets. Having two large dogs makes it hard to travel and we really haven’t done much of it. Having somebody reliable who takes such good care of our dogs has given us the confidence to go on our first trip in years! Cannot recommend her enough.
Nathan stayed at my house and Pet sat my 3 Labs while I was away for a couple weeks. I cannot say enough of how wonderful it was to have Nathan taking care of my pups. He texted me daily with feedback, updates, photos and videos of my dogs. One of my dogs needed to see the Vet for an acute ruptured cyst and clean out and Nathan dropped my dog off at the Vet and picked him up afterwards. He continued to give me updates and sent photos of how his cyst was healing. I felt so relieved that my pup was being well cared for. Nathan also watered my flower pots and washed all the sheets, blankets and towels before I arrived home. The house was clean, picked up and the dogs were happy when I got home. I have used Nathan in the past to take care of my dogs and will definitely use him again in the future. I highly recommend Nathan to care for our dogs/cats.
Morgan did a great job of taking care of our rambunctious 8 month old puppy and our house for over a week while we were on vacation. She sent daily photos of the dog and was quick to get in touch when she had any questions. Our house was clean when we returned and the puppy was happy.
This was my first time ever using a dog sitter. Stephanie was just great! Super responsive and communicative. She sent me lots of photos of my boy. He was clearly happy and well cared for when I got home. I look forward to using her services again for my sweet pup!
Danielle is a fantastic sitter! She did an amazing job watching our 2 pups for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. She communicated frequently on how they were doing and sent cute pics. I did not worry one bit knowing they were in her care, and she also took awesome care of our home! I highly recommend Danielle and will certainly be contacting her again! Frankie and Jarle say “thank you Danielle for staying with us”!!
Joe was amazing. He brought his dog Tala along for the sit. My dogs loved her. She is sweet, well mannered, and very well trained. They both entertained and exercised my two year old Viszla. Which is a lot of work! When I came home my house was cleaner than I left it. I would highly recommend Joe and Tala. Thank you so much Joe!
Alyssa is spectacular. She took such great care of our dogs and they loved her. We loved the updates she sent and she was very communicative the entire time we were gone. Our house was pristine when we came home and she did lots of little extras we didn’t expect but really appreciated. Highly recommend!
Hannah did a fantastic job taking care of our 1 year old cat, Winnie. Winnie has mild asthma, is very energetic, and is incredibly curious, which can sometimes get her into trouble. Throughout Hannah’s week-long stay, she kept us informed whenever Winnie had an asthma episode and sent us daily updates about how Winnie was doing and all the fun they were having. Hannah is very detail oriented, follows instructions carefully, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We felt completely comfortable knowing Winnie was in her care and would absolutely choose Hannah again the next time we go on vacation!
Hannah is wonderful! A true animal lover. She pet sit while we were out of town for 11 days. Our 3 small dogs were very happy and cared for while we were away . We received daily updates & cute photos which I really appreciated!! I knew our fur babies were in good hands and didn't have to worry about them, and we could enjoy our vacation & relax. It's not easy to find a reliable & trustworthy pet sitter, but Hannah is exactly that. Thanks Hannah!! ;)

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 Meadowdale 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 Meadowdale 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Meadowdale 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
