“Aaron was fantastic! Redford had an amazing time; they went on plenty of walks and adventures, and I could tell he was really well cared for. Aaron also stayed at my house and left it in perfect condition. I'd highly recommend Aaron; he’s great!”
“I would give Terika and Dylan 10 stars if it were an option. They were outstanding! I have two large dogs that are not always friendly. They both loved Terika and Dylan right away. Several hours after I left for my trip, my house had to be evacuated due to a large, fast moving wildfire. Terika and Dylan took my dogs to their house, but it was evacuated a few hours later. They moved with the dogs a second time and were out of the houses for a few days. They were excellent at keeping me updated as to how everyone was doing during this stressful time. When I returned home, everyone was safe and happy. I would highly recommend Terika and Dylan to anyone looking for house sitters. They will take loving care of your fur babies.”
“Jennifer did an amazing job of taking care of our dogs as well as my son‘s girlfriend‘s dog and my daughter‘s cat! She also watered our plants and took great care of our home. She sent pictures with updates on her pets, which is very considerate. We will be calling her again for future pet sitting. I would recommend highly!”
About: I've loved dogs for my entire life and was fortunate enough to get one of my one when I was 13. I love taking care of my dog and spending time with her. I enjoy spending time with other peoples dogs just as much. I am currently in college at UNR and would love to make some extra money doing somethingi enjoy. I am currently working three days a week (mon - wed) and am fully available all other days of the week. I don't currently live with a puppy of my own so I would love to spend more of my time around dogs. I spent over five years being one of the main care takers of my first dog. As a yellow lab she is very energetic and loves walks and playing fetch but also likes to sleep and lounge around. So I have experience with different personalities and energy levels.
“Locke was such a find! Was very professional and took such great care of our boy! Stayed 4 nights at our home and took great care of everything! Definitely recommend him and will use him again and again! Thank you Locke! Ollie misses you!”
About: I have always had animals. Old & young, I love them. I love going for walks and enjoy the company of dogs! I’m very reliable & I love to cuddle 🥰. I do my best to love on your fur baby while you’re gone. I have a lot of flexibility. I enjoy the company and walk daily. i work at home so that can be helpful. I treat you pet like family & I generally enjoy keeping in touch with pictures to the families ❤️ I make sure my home is clean and safe, also within a fenced yard, and on a leash when out. Being mindful of where abouts at all times.
“Tyler is a great sitter! I was fortunate that he was available on very short notice. He came to meet my 3 dogs and was up to the level of care I expected. He is very good with communicating and unafraid to ask questions. I believe he took great care of the dogs because they were fine when I came home and there wasn't anything unusual in their behavior.”
“Evan was a great house/dog sitter for my 12 year old Aussie!! He sent several pictures so I know she was getting lots of the love and attention! I appreciated that he asked questions to make sure he was taking proper care of her. All of this made me feel comfortable leaving my dog for the weekend. He also left the house very clean showing respect for my property. I hope to use Evan again!!”
“Jacqueline took great care of Sonora! She was also incredibly easy to work with - super communicative, including with adorable photos and videos of our pup while we were gone. Will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Kinan was exceptional. He took great care of our two pups, made sure the house was spotless when we arrived home, and helped us with a very big project. Can't recommend him enough, and plan to work with him again!”
About: Ive grown up with pets. I've taken care of dogs, cats, turtles, guinea pigs, etc. Ive cared for my pets and ive taken care of my friends', family's, and even co-worker's pets. I enjoy doing it and love to make the owners feel comfortable leaving them with someone they trust. As a dog owner currently, I feel better when I entrust my dog (my son) to someone they can feel happy with rather than being alone all day long. I have afternoons off as well as the full weekends. I'm available weekends for boarding. I am free for afternoon walks and playtime. Early morning food? I can do that. Does your pup need a ride anywhere, i can do that as well. I am very respectful of other's homes and feel that it is good to clean up toys after pups playtime and ensure the area of eating is kept clean. Being very attentive of dogs expressions and signals to go outside to ensure no accidents happen. If they are puppies, being on schedule or helping start a schedule to get them potty trained. Any rough play from larger dogs are best to be done outside to avoid accidents. This way the doggy is safe but also can freely have fun. I have experience with small and large dogs.
“Sarah did a great job watching our two cattle dogs. She was very communicative and left our house better than we left it! She took them on great adventures and sent us some awesome pictures. Highly recommend her!”
“Whitney was incredibly responsive and easy to book with. Very flexible around a schedule change need. She took amazing care of my boys and home. Couldn't have been pleased with her/her service. Thank you!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 858 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mystic. 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 Mystic 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 Mystic 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 Mystic 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.
