“Kaity did a great job as our housesitter and pet sitter. She sent frequent pictures of our animals and played with our dog. Our shy cat even came out of hiding for her! She watered all of my flowers outside, collected mail and packages, and left the house in great shape. We will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: We’re a husband-and-wife housesitting team who both work remotely, so we’re typically home with your pets for much of the day. We provide companionship while carefully following each pet’s normal routine for meals, potty breaks, walks, exercise, medications, and rest. We understand that being separated from their owners can be stressful for pets. We take time to learn each animal’s personality, comfort cues, and individual needs, and we limit unnecessary time away from the home. You’ll receive dependable daily updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing how everyone is doing. Our experience includes dogs, cats, and horses, and we’re happy to discuss care for small animals and reptiles with clear instructions. Because there are two of us, your pets benefit from additional attention and flexibility throughout the stay. We also treat every client’s home with care, follow household instructions closely, and leave the space clean and tidy. Before accepting a booking, we confirm how long your pets can comfortably be left alone and discuss all care expectations so everyone knows exactly what to expect. We’d love to meet you and your pets! We work remotely in the home of our clients and one of us is always available to give potty breaks, walks, and feedings. We adjust to the dog's routines to make sure as little changes for them as possible. We focus on clarity, cleanliness, and special attention. We treat your dogs and home with respect and leave pets and places better than we found them! We like to maintain a calm environment where pets are not neglected or ignored. We always use leashes outside, lock doors when we leave, keep off-limits rooms shut, never invite people into the home that are not expected by the owner -- common sense. We also put out trash cans, bring in mail, water plants, feed other animals, if it's part of managing your home, we are here to do it.
“Daniel cared for our active 16-month Australian Shepherd for 6 days. Our dog appeared happy and well cared for upon our return. Also our house was clean upon our return.”
“Holly was great with my dog! She was open to having 2 meet and greets before staying, which I think helped my anxious little dog. Holly was very calm, understanding and patient. I would definitely have Holly dogsit for us again!”
“Kristi is wonderful! The moment she came to meet my two dogs, I knew she was a true animal lover. My dogs can be a bit overwhelming at first but her calmness was very evident. Her communication was excellent with several updates and pictures. I enjoyed my short trip so much more knowing my dogs were being taken care of so well. My home was so clean and my pups were happy when I got home. I will definitely use Kristi again!”

“Katie dog sat for my 2 dogs for 2 nights in our home. She made sure my dog with a heart condition took her meds 4 times per day and took them for walks. She made sure they were fed and sent me messages on questions or comments she had. Our home was left in tact the way we left it. Thank you Katie for sitting with our dogs!”
“Kara did a great job watching our two Boston Terriers. We could tell they were well cared for and the house was left clean and tidy. She also sent pictures of the dogs throughout the day. We will be using her again in the future.”
“Ellie was wonderful! She took such great care of Knox, and we felt confident knowing he was in such good hands. We really appreciate the love and attention she gave him. We would absolutely recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter, and we would definitely use her again!”
“This was our second time booking Erin and it was just as great as the first time. Erin took amazing care of our three dogs. The dogs were relaxed and content when we returned. Erin is very professional and capable which sets our minds at ease We so appreciate being able to leave our dogs in the hands of someone we trust! Thank you Erin!”
“Jen did a fabulous job taking care of our pets! I have dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. One of my pups is 17 years old and takes a couple of medications. Jen didn’t flinch at the work and she was very reasonable. The pets loved her and she kept us updated while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Ava was amazing! She provided plenty of updates and went above and beyond when taking care of my puppy (who’s a bit of a handful). As an example, My door was broken and not unlocking while I was on a plane and Ava stayed there the whole time working with maintenance and a locksmith in order to save the pup. Additionally she even gave him a new toy and plenty of new snacks! Will definitely be using Ava if we can!”
“We were very happy with how Jordyan cared for our dog Teddy! He was well cared for and seemed happy when we returned! He is a 4 month old puppy, so can be very active! Plus he has to be taken out during the middle of the night! We would recommend Jordyan to use as a dog sitter!”
About: I've always loved animals! I worked at a Grooming and Boarding business for 4 years and I have done personal in-home pet care for many friends and clients. I'm currently flexible with my work hours and I'm looking for something extra to enjoy. I can be flexible with week days and weekend hours. I am happy to follow any preferences of my client, when caring for your fur babies. I'm responsible and caring, and enjoy showing extra love.
“Michael and Zoe are knowledgable dog caretakers who treated our kookie Dalmatian like a member of the family. She had fun with their dogs. I would highly recommend them to dog parents who need to leave their fur babies in good hands.”
About: Growing up I’ve always had multiple dogs. I was the one always responsible for feeding and taking care of them. I’ve always loved being around dogs and cats and being able to take care of them! I don’t currently have a full time job! I am between semesters in college so I’m just trying to pick up some side jobs to make some money! My home is in the south side of Nampa with a love of farm land surrounding. I have two labs that are very energetic and love going on walks. We go almost every morning and night. There is a nice 1 mile walk path that we talk that is super pretty and right next to my house. In a clients home I would be respectful to their home and follow what ever guidelines they set for me in regards to taking care of their pets and/or 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 Middleton 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 Middleton 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 Middleton 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.
