I can come to your house for walks or feedings but cannot stay the night. Me and my mom are both home alot so we can keep an eye on and take very good care of your pets. I have a fenced yard, pet door to the back yard, a sweet chocolate lab, a helpful mother and a good neighborhood. Let's see if we're a good fit!

“Makayla was SO amazing! We’d for sure use her service again. She was a godsend on a short notice trip when me and my fiancé needed someone to watch our dog and cats. Our trip was longer than expected and Makayla went above and beyond to make sure all our fur babies were taken care of even still! Truly can’t thank her enough. Very responsive and has great communication. If you can trust anyone, she’s the one.”

About: Hi! My name is Samantha, and I’m a stay-at-home mom to my 8-month-old daughter. I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even ducks of my own! I currently have 3 furry family members, so I understand how important it is to find someone patient, dependable, and loving to care for your pets like family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping pets on their normal routines. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pets! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and playtime during most weekdays and weekends. Your pets will get plenty of love, care, and supervision while they’re with me. I treat every pet like part of the family and always make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions from owners. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I’ll provide a calm, loving environment where your pet can feel at home.

About: I’ve had several family dogs growing up which jumpstarted my passion and love for animals. Over a year ago I adopted my own dog from a local shelter(it was the best decision I have ever made)! Throughout high school I would pick up dog sitting gigs, where I would watch after the house and tend to the pets needs, providing love and enrichment. Im very flexible with my schedule and would love to help a fellow pet parent out! I currently am enrolled in college, and finish classes in the early afternoon and will be working a part-time job at the university. With this being said it will leave me with plenty time for your fur babies! I live in an apartment with a dog park where your furry friend is always welcome! I also have a very friendly rescue pup of my own, and she’s always looking for a new friend! Having a border collie mix, I know the importance of walks and frequent enrichment!

About: If you need a trustworthy, patient and experienced pet sitter I am confident we would make a great team. I have had pets of my own since before I could walk, with experience in equine/large animal care to small critters, I can assure your furry friends will be safe in my hands. As a pet parent of two dogs of my own, I am confident in my ability to ensure a safe and comfortable walk/sitting experience for you and your pets! I aim to provide a communicative and dependable service that helps you feel comfortable while you are away from your pets! I’m currently working as needed, so I have plenty of time to help care for you pups! I am available through out weekends and weekdays I always prioritize slow, thoughtful introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. While I'm not offering in-home boarding just yet, I'm excited to open up my home soon as a peaceful, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel truly at ease. In the meantime, l'm available to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. I believe that stress-free care starts with a familiar environment and clear, reliable communication.

FAQs for House Sitting - Neutral

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 70 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Neutral. 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 Neutral 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 Neutral 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 Neutral 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
