“Taylor is amazing! She gave us lots of updates and included many photos of our fur babies while we were away. She was very respectful of our home and took care of it well. She even cleaned the sheets before she left which was great considering we were getting home after midnight and were very tired. The fur children loved her and we are so happy that they were taken care of so well while we were gone!”
“Amy did an absolutely fantastic job house sitting for our crew of three. She is the best and I would not hesitate to have her sit for our babies any time. We love her and so do our pets.”
“Samantha was so kind and took great care of our dogs! We even have a senior dog that requires alot right now and she took great care of her ! Loved her daily pictures and updates ! She was very trustworthy !”
“Abigail was an amazing sitter for our critter crew! She was kind and responsive, was attentive to details and especially patient with our old chocolate lab who has several health issues, and younger doodle who has some behavioral preferences we’re still learning! 🙏❤️ We so appreciate her taking such good care of everyone, and would love to have her back!!”
About: My attention to detail and helping ensure pet parents have a relaxing time on vacay by proving top-tier care sets me apart from other sitters. I like to send pictures I’ve taken throughout the day to pet parents and let them know what we did for the day. My 3+ years of experience working at a doggy daycare has helped me understand our furry friends. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages - puppies to seniors, given meds, and took care of a dog with paralyzed back legs. Love providing care for our furry friends! I’m currently working part time in the evenings typically on the weekends. Other than that, I’m free during the day/night. I typically work 4/5 hours in the evening. I’m off by 9 pm at the latest. For previous client care, I’ve either stayed overnight at their house or made several trips during the day and evening. If I stay overnight, I wake up let them outside to go potty and then feed breakfast (if they get it). Let them out again after breakfast. If I didn’t stay over night, then I would arrive in the morning and do the same process as if I stayed overnight. I will hang out with them and let them go outside to potty several times throughout the day. I will also try and play fetch if they like that. For dinner, it’s the same process as breakfast. I’ve also taken some dogs on walks to get their exercise in. Anything to keep our furry friends needs met!
“Maddie was great with my dog. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her after our first meet up. It is very clear how much she loves animals. She took great care of Stanley and all of my additional requests while she was at my house. I am so grateful for her, and would trust her with any pets!”
About: I am an animal lover through and through! As most, i’ve grown up caring for dogs and cats. I just can’t get enough animals in my life- I love all pets! From dogs and cats to reptiles and fish, I can care for any pet needed. I have experience with specialty pets such as rabbits, geckos, lizards, guinea pigs… if you own it i’ve probably cared for it! I have experience volunteering at the humane society, and my current volunteer efforts are at Arkansas Pet Rabbit Network.I truly love getting to know your furry (or scaly😉) friend of any kind. I have a love for older furry friends and experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I am a part time worker during the week, with much free time to dedicate to your babies! I can drop in during the week, or offer full time care fridays-mondays. I can do whatever you need for your pets in the home. When i’m with an animal, they’re my #1 priority! Even if your baby has oddly specific needs- send em my way!
“Makenna left the dogs happy and well taken care of! I would have loved more updates but that isn’t as big of a deal as making sure my babies are happy and they are! Would book again!”
“I really appreciate the time and care. Emily took with taking care of my babies. Being able to watch them in my home meant so much to me with me traveling it keeps the dogs feeling comfortable and I really appreciated that from her. I can tell that the dogs really enjoyed her and the time they were able to spend they were just as happy when I left as when I got home. I think her so much will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Raechel is incredible! She is reliable and trustworthy. She took great care of our two dogs for a week. They loved her! We came back to clean house too. We are very happy with her services and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi, I’m Anna! I’m a personal trainer and fitness coach in Little Rock, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently have a young Aussie mix named Mali, so I’m very familiar with energetic dogs, daily walks, playtime, crate routines, and giving pets lots of attention throughout the day. As a personal trainer, I’m used to being responsible, punctual, and consistent with schedules. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply a calm and loving presence while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so communication is extremely important to me. I’ll send regular photo updates, walk summaries, and check-ins so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and happy.
“Allison did a great job taking care of my two Newfoundlands. Communication was excellent throughout my trip, and when I came home, they were very happy to see me but also seemed completely relaxed and well cared for, almost like they hadn’t missed me at all. That says a lot about the care she provided. Overall, I’m very happy with the job she did taking care of my girls.”
About: I love animals. I was a former foster pet parent. We ended up adopting. We have adopted three dogs and they are our families world. Can’t imagine life without them. I’m able to help with your pet after my work hours and before my 8 hour shifts at the hospital and on the weekends as needed. Would love to pet sit or walk your animals. I love pets and helping when needed. I usually work 8 hour shifts at the hospital.
“Jaycee took excellent care of our dogs and cat. All the animals enjoyed her company and are all in good health and good spirits when we arrived home. She provided constant updates and followed all care instructions perfectly. I would recommend Jaycee to anyone needing a reliable caring sitter!”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Growing up with a dog by my side taught me how to understand, care for, and connect with them in a way that feels completely natural. Being around dogs isn't just something I do—it's something I've known my whole life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, learning their unique personalities, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Every dog deserves care that feels like home, and that's exactly what I strive to provide. I currently work Monday-Friday (8am-5pm). I can take care of pets after 5pm and on the weekends. We can arrange timing if needed. Thank you! I have a very spacious loft downtown I can have them in. Also have space for kennels if needed. Lots of parks near by and sidewalks to walk them. I’m also willing to take care of them at the clients residents as well. Whatever is needed for the job at hand!

FAQs for House Sitting - Natural Steps
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Natural Steps on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 350 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Natural Steps. 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 Natural Steps 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 Natural Steps 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 Natural Steps 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 with handling special pet needs in Natural Steps. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
