“Joyann was a great great sitter. She was very attentive to everyone and shared pictures daily with us. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing all was well cared for. She's excellent and such a gem.”
“She took good care of my kitties while I was gone. They were perfectly fine when I got home had food and water and she sent me a text message and picture of her feeding one of my cats while I was gone. She was great. I loved how she checked in with me often”
About: I have taken care of and owned dogs since I was 10. During the ages of 11-14 I fostered several dogs and worked with a rescue. I also know how to work with puppies and kittens since I rescued my 1 year old cat when he was 3 weeks old. I also regularly dog sit a three dog household for a family memeber for the past four years as well as a three cat household. I also have experience with ferrets and hamsters. I am currently a newly graduated student who has the summers off! I am free to help as long as I have a days notice! I will adjust to any schedule you have for your furbaby. I am also comfortable administering meds if shown the schedule and routine you have.
About: I have grown with dogs, particularly yorkshire terriers, since I was 4. I understand and love dogs, and have cared for family pets! I have taken care of animals of various breeds, age, and sizes. Although most of my experience is with small dogs, owning 6 yorkshire terriers, I have taken care of family pets, such as Blue Heelers, Huskies, and Great Danes. I love any and all dogs with all my heart. It is always an honor caring for ones pets, and it is an honor I will gladly do forever. I am currently a full time college student, (trying) to work a part-time job. Since we are on break, I am free everyday, any time, until late August/early September. I will update this once I (hopefully) get a job :) and if there are any changes. I am always willing to make a meet & greet, to ensure your comfort! Being a dog owner, I understand if you'd like to see if I am a good fit first. I will also keep consistent communication to give you peace of mine while you are away. sending photos and updates on your pets.
About: I've taken care of different personality cats, dogs including my birds. I have pet-sat for friends and family. I look forward to working with you but most of all with your furbaby & maybe teaching a new trick! I am currently working mostly during the day but I have some flexibility where you need me. I have evenings & weekends available for your convenience. My yard is fenced and my furbabies will gladly welcome yours. I have crates handy if you prefer. there is a cute dog park nearby we burn off any extra zoomies!
About: Hi there! I’m Kaylee, a veterinary technician with a passion for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From playful puppies to senior sweethearts, I understand their unique needs — and I know how to keep them safe, happy, and healthy while you’re away. Because of my background, I’m trained to notice even the smallest changes in behavior or health, administer medications if needed, and provide calm, confident care in any situation. I am currently unemployed due to relocation, so I have full availability and can spend all day caring for your baby if preferred at home! When I care for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest — just as you would. I make sure they have plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise while maintaining the same rules and boundaries they’re used to.
“Madison watched my Rottweiler for a full week. She sent pictures and videos every day of them playing and relaxing. My dog seemed very calm and well taken care of when I got back. The house was very clean. 5 stars.”
“Gabby was the best. We moved with our doggies to a different state/town and had to travel again without them immediately after arriving to our new home. The dogs were happy and safe and adjusted well to their new environment with her help. My apartment was clean and well cared for and she even made sure to unplug any cables as a safety precaution when she left. Totally recommend Gabby 💯 and I'm looking forward to having her care for my pup again!”
“Natalia was absolutely amazing with my 12-year-old pup, Phoenix 🐾—who is definitely a picky, demanding little diva 😄. She handled her meds, nighttime wake-ups, and constant need for affection like a total pro. I got great updates and could tell Phoenix was genuinely comfortable and cared for during her overnight stay. It’s not easy trusting someone with a high-maintenance senior dog, but Natalia made it feel effortless. Will 100% be booking with her again—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs since I was little. I have raised and fostered puppies and kittens, and know how to administer basic aid. My home is pet friendly and safe for all fur-babies. I have full availability to do drop-in visits or boarding during the weekdays or weekends. I am very flexible with times and setting up a meet and greet if needed. I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I have a fenced yard, a friendly chihuahua, and 3 cats who love to play with other animals. We have lots of toys, a cat tree, treats, and free feeding- unless you require specific meal times and special diets.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.
About: The truth is; i am gifted when it comes to animals. But dogs are my heart. They are clear communicators, and when their needs are met, they are a joy. All ages and breeds welcome. Can also offer gentle or strict parenting/training/guidance on request. Pet care is simple; ensuring the animals safety and specific needs are being met, while also paying attention and being aware of their cues. A constant combination of attentiveness, exercise, hygiene, and nutrients. Plenty of love and clean water, always. Caring for animals is about being present. Being in tune with both their needs and desires. For my fur babies, I always make sure that their needs are taken care of before my own, just like a child. If the parents of the fur babies I am caring for have specific instructions, I am great at that as well. You know your babies better than anyone.
About: I’ve had pets since I was a toddler, and I currently own two senior dogs and a cat. I’ve volunteered at pet shelters while in college, and am ready to share the love! I’m currently a part time student, and have plenty of free time. I’m available after 3PM on the weekdays, and completely free on the weekends. I have two dogs and usually let them free roam around the house during the day and crate them at night. However, each pet owner has their own routine that I am more than willing to follow.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and they are my joy and happiness. I simply lovee dogs and enjoy their presence and making them happy the way they make me feel.❤️ Im available all day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 148 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mission. 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 Mission 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 Mission 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 Mission 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
