About: I grew up with dogs. I loved them like they were part of the family. I haven't had any dogs in a few years but my aunts and cousins have dogs and I've stayed with them. "A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself!" Josh Billings This would be my primary job. I'm available almost every day to take care of your fur babies. Anything you need, I'm your girl. Just let me know. I would like to add, I don't do well with more than 2 dogs. Just a personal preference. Sorry for any inconvenience. I can follow any instructions you have for me. If you have a fenced in backyard, I can keep an eye on them. If they need exercise, I can take them for a walk. If they are a senior dog and get tired on the walk, I will sit with them until they're ready to go home. Anything they need, I can take care of it.
“Tessa cared for our three dogs over a 4day period. She was able to add my son’s dog to our little pack last minute as his sitter was unavailable. She is prompt and professional. One of my dogs is on daily medications, she was very thorough with his medications and made sure to give me updates. She is sensitive to their needs and spends time with them each visit. I was very happy with her services and will continue to work with her in the future. I highly recommend Tessa for your pet sitting needs.”
“Melissa is absolutely amazing. I have been living here in Beaumont alone and didn't know what I'd do if I needed help w my two puppies and I took a chance and she will be a regular part of our furry family care. She's professional, fun, experienced, flexible, pleasant...I can't say enough good things about Melissa. We will be repeat customers for a long time. Book w Melissa. You won't ever have to worry about your beloved companions...and that's saying alot because I haven't ever entrusted my pups in anyone's care. You'll love Melissa and your pups will too.”
About: I have a total of 4 years within veterinary medicine so I am specialized in both canines and felines. I am certified in most canine behavioral courses, and I do have certificates that were required by my day job at the Humane Society. I currently work part time for the humane society. My shifts are 8AM-3PM. My availability during the week is only limited to evenings but I do not have them listed on the app. Within my home we have a large property with 2 small dogs. Dogs will be leashed for walks just to ensure safety and not have any little wanderers in my neighborhood! At a client's home, I am there for the pets care. Once their needs are completed, I will do my best to make sure they are comfortable before I make my exit and especially devote time for love and attention!
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Roxi! She took such incredible care of our furbabies and our flock while we were out of town. Knowing they were in her hands gave us such peace of mind. Roxi cared for our animals and our home as if they were her very own. She went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy, safe, loved, and well cared for. It’s such a special feeling to find someone you can completely trust with the things that mean the most to you. Roxi is truly a wonderful soul, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We came home to happy babies and a well-cared-for home, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We will absolutely be using Roxi again for our next out-of-town trip and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. ❤️🐾🐔”
About: I’ve taken care of animals as a kennel tech and vet assistant since I was 15 years olds. And my degrees and career field revolves around veterinary medicine. I have nothing but free time to sit at home and care for your animals. There may be limited weekend availability depending on if I’m allowed to visit home once a month. I have an unfenced yard if your animal is a great listener, if not there is tons of space and a dog park for me to give them outside enrichment. Animals are free range in my home unless they have social issues. There are man areas that small kennels and gates can be placed to allow for separation if needed.
About: I currently have owned/trained an abundance of different animals. I’ve been around and have experience with dogs ranging from Siberian huskies to Golden Retrievers. I’ve even owned two different handicapped dogs throughout my life. I’ll be able to handle any fur baby coming my way. ♥️ I am currently working part time and not at all past 3:15pm nor do I work weekends. So your babies have my full attention weekends and nights. I have a privacy fenced in yard and two inside cats that keep to themselves. None of our cats care or mind other pets. Your pet will be safe and loved.
About: Growing up I always had dogs and would constantly watch dogs 101 and vet shows. I learned their language to better connect with them especially if they have anxiety. Right now I am raising 3 cats and caring for my elderly dog who has seizures so I know how to handle a situation when it come to it along with schedule medications. My dog also only chooses me to cuddle with during thunderstorms so if your pup has a fear of storms while you're gone you can rest assure I'm making them feel as safe as possible. I have pretty big gaps between my day schedule, between school and work. I have time for morning, afternoon and night visits. I usually get out of work 830 the latest so medication will be able to be given before too late in the night In the client's home I would normally make sure I can see their pet at all times to guarantee no accidents happen on my watch. I also depending on the breed and personality of the dog will walk them or give them enrichment more often as needed.
“Wow! Can’t say enough good things about Bailey. One of our dogs was recently diagnosed with diabetes and she was experienced with that easing my mind while I was on vacation! She kept me updated providing some cute pictures and was super easy to communicate with!!! All my fur babies fell in love with her! Can’t wait to book her again!!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and a safe, comfortable environment. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, playtime, walks, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, you can count on me to provide loving and reliable care. ❤️🐶 I’m a stay-at-home mom, and now that my child has started pre-K, I have plenty of time during the day to care for your pets. I’m available for daytime drop-ins, walks, playtime, feeding, and boarding. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who can provide companionship for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I’m also able to keep pets separated when needed and can crate your dog if requested. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions carefully, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. 🐾❤️
About: I am a veterinarian,I have 30 years of experience as a veterinarian, I've worked in clinics, I live in a place where I have several animals, it's my passion. I have experience with different types of pets. In my daily routine, they are the most important thing, as I live with several pets in my home. I am very patient and dedicated to them every day. I like to observe the animals' behavior daily so I can monitor their health. I prefer to provide care at the client's home, as recommended by the veterinarian; it's better not to take the pet out of its familiar environment.
“If you need a rockstar dog sitter, Tory’s it! She watched our two girls over spring break and did an amazing job. She was communicative, paid detailed attention to their schedules, and sent the best pics. It was clear from the pictures and videos that our girls were having a great time and being so well cared for. She also went above and beyond and the house was spotless- couldn’t tell she’d been there!”
About: I’ve had many dogs throughout my childhood and I just love how they are. I have had experiences with many dogs throughout my life. They’re so cute I love them all. I currently don’t have a job right now but I am looking for one. I start my day early so I have free time! I only have one dog now. Her name is Luna, she’s been my baby since she was literally a baby. She knows when to go outside to use the restroom, as well as some tricks I taught her, she also loves when I pet her…sometimes when she wants me too lol, still love her.
About: I have loved and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds for several years. Friends and family regularly rely on me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets. I am highly responsible, energetic, and dedicated to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Whether they need a long walk or some cozy couch cuddles, I’ve got it covered! I am currently a student with classes only on Mondays and Wednesdays. Aside from my Sunday night assignment deadlines, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible. This gives me plenty of dedicated time throughout the week and weekends to fully focus on, walk, and play with your beloved pups! I specialize in caring for pets directly in the comfort of your own home, where they feel most safe and secure. While I do have a fully fenced backyard and can crate dogs if absolutely necessary, I prefer traveling to your house to maintain your dog's regular routine, environment, and peace of mind.
“Marcella was wonderful. She came by before the sit to meet us and get a run down of responsibilities. Major took to her instantly. She's kind, reliable, and trustworthy. She arrived on time, maintained my pup's routine and sent lots of pics. I knew my boy was in great hands. I could tell he was well loved and cared for in my absence. She's welcome back anytime!”
About: I have years of personal experience caring for dogs. I had my Shih Tzu for 15 years, which gave me experience caring for a dog through every stage of life, from puppyhood to their senior years. I also recently welcomed a Maltipoo puppy into my family, so I’m familiar with the extra attention, patience, playtime, and routine that puppies need. I truly love dogs and will treat every pup in my care like they’re part of my own family. 🐾💕 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give each dog plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and attention. Since I have a puppy of my own, caring for dogs is already a part of my everyday routine! I live in a comfortable townhome with a backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, potty breaks, and playtime. 🐾 I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, and potty schedule as closely as possible and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I also have a friendly Maltipoo puppy of my own, so your pup may have a companion to play with! I’m happy to accommodate each dog’s individual routine and needs to help them feel right at home. ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 94 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nome. 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 Nome 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 Nome 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 Nome 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.
