“Sara spent 4 days pet/house sitting for us and we could not have been happier! She checked in with us regularly and took great care of our pup and home while we were gone. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for pet services—she is great and worth every penny!”
“Abby was incredibly attentive to my cat and sent frequent updates while I was away, and even took the time to ask several questions in our initial meeting to ensure all important details were communicated. My cat is VERY shy around people and yet by the end of my trip, Abby gained her affection - which speaks to how dedicated they were to genuinely caring for my cat. Definitely would recommend Abby a sitter for those that wants their pet to be taken care of like family :)”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your home respectful, and provide regular updates and photos while you are away. I am currently enrolled in classes at IU, so Mondays and Wednesdays are my busiest days, although I am still available during those evenings. I have flexible daytime and nighttime availability the rest of the week, including weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I live in a comfortable apartment with convenient access to dog parks and several local parks for walks, exercise, and playtime. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and safety instructions while keeping pets comfortable and supervised. I will also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy.
“Adalyn did such a great job caring for our dog Hoosier and watching our house while we went away for a few days. She sent pictures and communicated with me daily. Whenever I needed to contact her about something, she was quick to respond and took care of anything I needed. We came home to a very clean house and a very happy dog! I highly recommend Adalyn and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Ashli is so amazing and stayed with our dog for the entire day so they we could enjoy our wedding. It was such a relief to know he was happy and hanging out with Ashli, and we were able to focus on the day instead of wondering what he was doing at home.”
“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”
“Mirte was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our home and pets. She went above and beyond in every way, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pets clearly adored her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. We came home to a spotless house, happy animals, and everything handled perfectly. Mirte is reliable, kind, professional, and truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever worked with. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets and home. Five stars all around!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. All of which have been large 80-110 pound dogs. My parents currently have 3 large dogs that I used to live with. I am currently a full time student so I would totally be down to watch dogs and cats all day while my clients go to work or out of town. I am trying to start my own food business so I get to do that during my free time. Throughout the years of having my own family dogs, I have learned when a dog is uncomfortable in a situation and when to get them out of a situation.

I am currently working part-time and attending college courses at IU. This means that besides those set times, I am free for house/pet sitting, drop-in visits, and long walks/playtime! I follow every client’s instructions to a T and will go above and beyond to give your pet the best care I am able to. I am comfortable working in any environment and have the necessary training to access behavior and the safety of your pet!

“Shakarra watched our 2 dogs and 2 cats for 2 weeks. I’ve never been away from them for that long. She kept me up to date and was very responsive. I appreciated having someone in our home who everyone was comfortable with. She came over 2 times before actually staying to make sure things were going to work. My dogs took to her immediately. I ran into some travel delays but Shakarra was flexible and kind enough to do an additional stop by to make sure everyone was good. She tidied up the house before she left which was icing on the cake for our arrival home. I feel so grateful to have found a great pet sitter on the first go around.”
“Rhonda is the best! She came for a 5 night stay at my home with my 2 dogs (a Rottweiler and Boston Terrier) and my cat (5 month old kitten). Not only did she care for my babies (who were absolutely in love with her the moment they met her), but also took great care of my home. I had no worries during my time away. I will 100% rebook with her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 477 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Needmore. 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 Needmore 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 Needmore 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 Needmore 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.
