“Annette was amazing! It was obvious that she took good care of my pup! She took great photos and snuggled with him! He is an anxious pup but he loved her from the start. Would highly recommend and will definitely be reaching out for her to watch him again!”
“Charli took care of my. 14 year old Yorkie with health problems. She had to give him 3 pills twice daily and treat him with care. She did a great job and returned him to me in great shape.”
“Maisie was wonderful to work with from the very beginning. Our goldendoodle has quite the personality and can sometimes be intimidating when you first meet him but she was extremely patient and kind. When we returned from our trip, the house was spotless and dogs were very happy and well taken care of. Maisie communicated well each day and sent a ton of photos of the dogs doing various things throughout the day. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone safe and loving to take care of your fur babies while you’re away!”
“Sara is absolute ROCKSTAR. Our Mookie absolutely loves her. He had his 2nd stay with her and we could tell he had a blast. He normally doesn’t eat the most consistent but he did with Sara. We loved all the updates and pictures we got through the stay. Sara always leaves our home like no one stayed there and we will continue to use her for all of Mookie’s stays. As a French bulldog owner it can be very hard to find the right “fit” but we know we have it with Sara!!”
“Amy was super attentive and caring towards our sweet boy. Great communicator as well as fantastic at sending a few photos and updates while we were gone…that gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and we could fully enjoy our time away. We fully trust her and will book again in the future. Thank you so much, Amy!”
“Darby recently housesat for us and did a great job! Came back to a clean house and two happy dogs. She followed the guidelines we leave for all housesitters, never left the dogs for more than 4-5 hours without a potty break, and communicated well. Couldn't ask for anything more. We highly recommend her. We would absolutely call on her again if she weren't moving to San Diego soon. We wish her the best of luck in that market. Thanks Darby!”

About: I’ve been caring for all kinds of furry animals for several years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and other furry companions, and I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique needs, personality, and routine.

Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality.

“Hannah went above and beyond in every way! Not only did she take amazing care of our lab puppies, but she also left our home spotless. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant so much to us while we were away. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating with my husband’s crazy work schedule, which made everything so much easier for us. It’s clear she genuinely loves and cares for the pets she watches. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. We will definitely be using Hannah again—highly recommend”
“She is the true dog whisperer. Our Shitzu mix can be stand offish and protective when it comes to meeting new people. He didn’t even bark when she came to the house. That never happens. Buddy took to Terry immediately. She gave her attention to him - not us and won him over within a few minutes. Terry provided daily updates and when we got a picture of Buddy sitting on her lap we knew he was in good hands. We have complete confidence in Terry. You and your pup would be fortunate to have Terry dog sit while you’re away.”
“If I could give her more than five stars I would! She was very nice and very professional! She had very very good communication and sent photos of pets often! If I need to book a dog sitter again on rover it will definitely be through her if she is available. Very much recommend Mya!”
About: As a graduate of the University of Arizona with a BS in wildlife conservation I have a special place in my heart for all animals. I've been brought up most of my life with animals, mostly dogs and cats. Their company, presence is special and something I have and will enjoy for the rest of my life. I have a Staffordshire bull terrier and my dad has two cats of his own I adore. Looking to work in my future as a game warden and have experience completing a veterinary assistant certification at pima community college and a certification from durrel on completing a endangered species recovery course in the United kingdom (jersey channel islands). This is something I've been looking forward doing for a while; having a wonderful time looking after such wonderful pets. Simply when an animal is happy I'm happy. I will always take time for your pet as they deserve as much time and attention as possible which I can definitely give to them. Make sure they are always safe and having a great time with lots of play and love, they are family and will treat them as such.
About: I have taken care of friends and families dogs since I was a kid. I have had dogs of my own. I am semi-retired, so I will have lots of time with your dog. I have plenty of time on my hands. So I’m happy to have a dog to hang out with. I’m semi retired so I can conform to a pets schedule. I have a fenced back yard and love to play with dogs I pet sit. Your dog will be treated like they are my own.
“Shelby did an excellent job house and dog sitting during a weekend trip to Tampa. She kept us updated many times with texts and photos of our dog to eliminate worries about leaving our Golden Retriever for 3 days. I highly recommend Shelby for future dog sitting events.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 356 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mescal. 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 Mescal 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 Mescal 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 Mescal 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.
