“Sydney was great!! I have huskies, so they are very active, plus they are spoiled rotten, and she was kind and loving. First time I have ever left my boys with a house sitter and when we got back they saw us, got their movies and went back to letting her pet them. They were well taken care of. She did send one Pic, to let me know how they were doing. But in fairness, I did text her daily asking for updates. So, she even put up with the overprotective dog mom. I will absolutely be inviting her back.”
“Brean is timely, kind, professional to work with, covers her bases with meeting the animals and going over things before committing. Will definitely work with her again. Thank you Brean!”
“Ana was fantastic! We needed a dog sitter at the last minute, and she was able to come by for a quick meet-and-greet on short notice. While we were away, she sent plenty of updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Emily took good care of our 2 dogs and turtle while we were gone for an 8 day trip. Although I would have loved to have more updates and a bit more dog walks, our animals were well cared for and seemed very happy. She administered meds to my old dog as requested and brought in the mail. She seems to love animals and communicated very well.”
About: I grew up with so many pets from cats and dogs to bunnies and snakes. My roomate has a cat and Ive been traveling a lot so no pets for me right now but I would still love to interact with pets on my day to day. I work 9-5 but it is a flexible schedule. I can visit your pets before and after work or during lunch! I can adjust my schedule based on your pets needs. I am very empathetic, kind and considerate of your home, rules and expectations with your pet. I can not promise your pets will not be love bombed.
“Alexandra has proved herself to be a great cat-sitter. She followed our cat care instructions very well. She spent time with them in the evening/night when they get the most lonely(they sleep most of the day), gave them wet food on schedule, checked their water fountains, dry food dispensers and litter robot to make sure they were in order, and cleaned up after Boo when he puked. When we came home, the cats seemed emotionally very well and cared for. I could tell she had spent the right amount of time with them and given them enough attention, because they were not upset, stressed or angry at me for leaving them as they would be if they had not been attended to sufficiently. Alexandra was also very kind to our apartment while she was over, leaving it very clean. Best of all, she was easy to communicate with while we were away. I definitely recommend her as a pet sitter!”
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She bravely took on a job no one else seemed to want, which was house-sitting and dog-sitting for two 6 month old puppies who are not yet house-trained. Housebreaking chihuahua puppies is a lot of work. (We're still working on it...), so this job required an extra dose of patience and diligence. Lauren sent us updates and photos of the puppies while we were away. She also kept our large selection of house plants alive, which is another job unto itself. I can't recommend Lauren highly enough, Anyone who gets Lauren to house or dog-sit is very lucky! We hope to hire her again next time we travel. She is trustworthy and responsible, and our pups love her too.”
About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child. This included staying over, walking, feeding, training and playing. At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape! If your pets coming to my house they must be crate trained (for when I sleep) and friendly with other dogs.
“Bailey has watched our dog at our house several times and always does a great job! She keeps us posted on what’s happening and we come home to a happy dog and to find things the way we left them. Great pet sitter!”
About: Hi there! I'm an enthusiastic dog person (although I think cats are great too) with plenty of patience and compassion for animals. I grew up with Siberian Huskies and Pomeranians and now own a delightful Italian Greyhound. I am well versed in tending to high energy dogs as well as the slower guys. I'm happy to take dogs on long or short walks, and if you'd prefer a more active experience for your animal, I'm a runner so I can make that happen! As far as sitting goes, I have watched dogs for friends and family for years without issue. I have a calm demeanor that tends to put animals at ease. If you're looking for a sitter who values quality care and honesty, I'm your girl. I usually have Wed-Fri off of work, so I have open availability on those days. I typically work nights so I can do walks and check ins in the am on other days. My schedule can vary a tad due to being in the service industry, so I can be flexible with requests :) I cannot bring pets to my home, but I’m happy to stop by your place for check ins, walks, etc. I’m always happy to water plants and attend to other things if you’re gone a few days too.
About: I will love and care for your dog as my own. I have always been a huge dog lover. As of now I work at MUV Fitness and am an advocate for helping people feel better about themselves and life. My old dog Bailey is a Beagle/lab that I loved with my whole heart. I adopted her 5 years ago, and she passed away. She was pretty old. Her past owner used to run marathons with her, so we get along great. I will walk/run your dog to make sure they have the exercise needed, but i will also just cuddle and show your dog all the attention they need, until you come home to do so yourself. I also had 2 pitbulls with my old roommate that were both rescues that are huge lovers. I do also provide light housekeeping, poop scooping, brushing, and bathing if needed. I am currently enrolled in school, but all is online so I am available most all day every day. Just with some zoom meetings on my headphones I have a fence backyard, but can also care for your animal in the comfort of your home. Honestly open to whatever works best for the owner and pet!
About: We love hosting pets for their own vacations at our farm while their parents are gone. We have around dogs and cats our whole lives and have experience with small breeds like Chihuahuas and Yorkies, Blue Heelers and Labs, as well as Dobermans and hunting dogs. Every dog is different and we follow each owner’s lead on how to be of service to them and their pet. We have many references I am happy to provide. I look forward to connecting with you! If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. I’m available for boarding most days of the week. My schedule allows for lots of outside time and hanging out around the house with us for pets that are comfortable with that We have 2 acres that provide lots of outdoor space as well as several separate bedrooms so pets can have their own peaceful space as well as hanging out with me in our living spaces
About: I've cared for dogs (small to medium size), cats, ducks, fish, chickens and some birds since in my teens. I've looked after friends, family and neighbors pets for feeding, boarding, day care, walking, play, etc… I am an artist, so I am free to be home all day therefore my availability is Monday through Sunday. My hours are flexible and accommodating to your pets needs. I have a house with a tall fenced yard and 3 dogs that are dog and people friendly. Your pets can play with mine or they can be placed in a separate area. During good weather, I leave the back door open so dogs are free to come in and out of the house. All dogs sleep inside the house together or if requested in a separate room.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mock. 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 Mock 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 Mock 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 Mock 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.
