“Lauren took great care of our puppy boy and our house. This was our first time leaving him in the care of a Rover sitter and it was a great experience. Her regular updates and pictures were a relief that allowed us to enjoy our trip worry-free. We'll definitely reach out to Lauren the next time Jack needs a sitter!”
“Olivia was great with Django and had our mind at ease while we were on vacation! She sent updates with pictures and kept the house the exact same way as we left it. Will be using her in the future 100%!”
“I hired Delaney for the first time to housesit and stay with my two dogs. She was fabulous! It was very easy to communicate with Delaney. She answered phone calls and returned text messages immediately. She sent photos of the pups to me periodically without me asking. She followed all directions. I will definitely keep working with her as my first choice going forward. My prior housesitter moved away and so I am looking to establish a new persitting relationship.”
“My pets seemed to love her and she was very good at keeping us posted during her care. She stayed at our house for a few days while we were out of town and she was respectful of our things and would highly recommend!”
“Luna did a terrific job house sitting and caring for our dog and two cats. The critters were happy and not at all stressed and she left the house cleaner than she found it. Very responsible and communicative:”
About: I grew up with dogs and have since added two sweet cats, a senior dog, and fish to my home! I love animals and will give your pet all of the love. I work full time with a consistent schedule, taking care of my pets (and yours!) before and after work is one of the best parts of my day! I am dedicated to giving your pets the love they are used to when you are not home. I love going for walks and giving animals attention in their space.
“Ruby was great with my two rowdy dogs and older cat. It was a rainy weekend, so they were all cooped up a bit, but Ruby kept them entertained. She also had to pill my cat twice a day - never an easy feat. I appreciated her communication throughout the stay. I would definitely work with Ruby again!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently have four dogs down in the valley! My family recently welcomed a new puppy into our family, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities. I also have two cats at my mom’s house and have always been responsible for caring for my pets, including feeding, walking, playing, and keeping them happy and safe. Since moving to Flagstaff, I’ve also started watching dogs for friends when they’re out of town. I genuinely love being around animals and would treat your pet like they’re my own! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule and plan my time around pet care. I’m available during breaks between classes and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I’m especially available for boarding and sitting when I’m on breaks or have open days. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of dogs for the past three years, including dropping by my friends’ houses to watch their pets and homes while they enjoy themselves on a getaway vacation. I’ve had personal experience with having my own dog throughout the majority of my life, and have always had so much love in my heart for caring for my own pets, and my friends and family’s pets as well. My Australian shepherd male dog also recently had puppies, and I have been working with these 7 puppies on potty training, engaging in play, and also discipline by teaching basic commands such as sit, stay, and break. I’m currently working as a full time therapist Monday-Fridays and enjoy taking my dog on hikes & walks throughout the week, especially on the weekend. In my own apartment, I take my 3 year old Australian shepherd on approximately 3 walks a day, and we typically are at the dog park once a week so that he can socialize with other dogs. For my close friends’ I tend to let their dogs roam around in the backyard, feed them, and also engage in fetch. I also enjoy being able to lay on the couch cuddled up watching a tv show with their pets as well to provide rest between playing times.
About: I have tons of experience with pet-sitting. I have my own 8 year old golden doodle at home that I love and care for. She has various health issues and I am always on top of giving her medication and also her shots she needs. I have dog sat before for my neighbors and also was a dog walker for a couple summers. I love to spend time outdoors and will play with your pet for hours! I am a very responsible adult and pride myself with my accountability and kindness. I currently go to NAU and am looking for a little extra cash to make when I am not working on school or hanging out with my sorority:) I love to spend time outdoors and enjoy long walks! I have a fur baby at home and have raised her for the last 8 years so I have experience with pets. I take her on daily long walks and love to take her to the dog park to run around!

Bradley clearly went above and beyond! He is well experienced, not only with dogs and Siberian huskys in particular, but he also clearly has a mature Service heart. Bradley paid close attention to what Maggie‘s needs would be, was on time, was Patient both with me and with Magie, also knew the limits of what was wise to do and not do with her. Even though he was sick on the second day, he still nonetheless showed up, did everything that was expected although I’m sure he was feeling lousy.

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 Mountainaire 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 Mountainaire 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 Mountainaire 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.
