“Casie stayed at our house for a week when we were out of town. She did a great job! Since this was my first time using Rover, Casie lead the way & did a great job! She came ahead of our reservation for a meet & greet which was a great idea! Casie sent pictures through the week. We loved being able to see our pets while we were away! The entire experience was so smooth & easy. Thanks to Casie for taking care of our pets!”
“Jen was amazing, and it was such a pleasure to work with her! Her knowledge and experience with dogs, especially considering our high-maintenance Siberian Huskies, left us very confident that we could trust our babies with her while we were away for a week. We have four dogs—three young adult Siberian Huskies and an older mixed-breed. Our four dogs absolutely adored Jen. We've never seen them so attached to someone other than us. Jen communicated regularly and sent us pictures daily, and we could tell our dogs were being well cared for. She was respectful of our home and left it nice and tidy. She checked our mail, brought in our trash bin, and even let us know of a house issue that came up while she was sitting. I’m so happy we found Jen; she was the only reason we were able to enjoy our vacation stress-free without worrying about our dogs. If you’re looking for a professional, friendly, experienced sitter who will take excellent care of your pets, Jen is highly recommended. Thank you so much, Jen! We hope to work with you again!”
“Vance did a fabulous job with our pups while we were out of the country. He sent us regular updates with photos and our girls always looked super relaxed and happy. The house was immaculate when we came home, and it was really reassuring to know our trash would be taken out, our water would be left running to prevent pipes from freezing, and our plants would be watered. He did a great job with everything, and we'd absolutely book him again.”
“Tina was outstanding! She gave me daily updates on how my boy Chef was and was overall very thorough with making sure he was well taken care of. I will be reaching out to her again next time I need someone to watch Chef.”
“Ruxin is a 13 year old weimerener with loving energy. His disposition matched Natalie’s personality and there were no hesitations from either of them; they bonded immediately. Natalie is a natural. She is reliable, competent and confident. Your pet is in good hands with her. I cannot speak highly enough of Natalie’s communication and ongoing commitment to keep our loved one safe, happy and healthy while we were away. This was the peace of mind that made the trip so relaxing. Natalie can be trusted without doubt or hesitation. She is thorough and seeks clarification if she is unsure of something pertaining to the uniqueness of your pet-this is the assurance that I admire and respect most in her ability to provide exceptional care. I know that Ruxin enjoyed his stay-cation from us as much as we enjoyed our time away visiting family. This was evident through the photos that she shared throughout. In addition to the great care that she provided to Ruxin, Natalie took outstanding care of our home. Upon returning from our trip, we were very pleased to find our house spotless! Thank you Natalie for your ongoing dedication to the pets and their homes that you care for. Ruxin sends his ❤️”
“Jacen did a fantastic job!!! We booked for 6 separate nights for stay overs at our house and everything went smoothly. Jacen is flexible and even watered our plants and took down some trash while we were gone. The cats were well taken care of and the communication was excellent. Highly recommend Jacen!”
“Kira did an excellent job taking care of all of our animals. She also handled a last minute change in routine with one of our pets without any difficulty. We appreciated the communication she provided to us while she stayed at our house. We were pleasantly surprised to find our house clean and tidy upon our return home. We highly recommend Kira for your pet sitting needs!!!”
“She stayed over for a long weekend and was amazing. Great communication the whole time with pictures everyday and let us know how our little guy was doing. Easily accommodated to what our needs were with no issues at all. Will definitely us her again and again!!!”
“Danielle did great with our dog, Pig. Our dog is a very easygoing dog, she gave her her meds and dinner daily, she was great. She sent pictures of Pig, was very communicative, and left the house in the state it was in prior to her arrival.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and have been caring for them my entire life. I have experience with both large and small dogs as well as cats. I’m currently home from college for the summer and working part time so I have a good amount of time on my hands, especially on Sundays and Mondays. I experience with almost every type of pet care you can think of including things like bathing, crating, playing, walking, feeding, and even giving medication.
“Isabella (Bella) did a wonderful job watching our crew of 2 dogs and 2 cats. We got pictures every day that we were away and the house was well taken care of as well. We never had to wonder how things were going as updates were frequent! We would absolutely book with Bella again!”
“My dog Navy loves Angel! When I dropped off my keys for their second visit together he was all over her and for a dog who is anxious around new people that says a lot to me. She came in clutch with a last minute request and has left my apartment clean every time. I am so thankful for her!”
“Taylor was amazing,I will definitely use her services again. She did house sitting for a week. My baby was so well cared for, he was happy and relaxed when I got home. Taylor was very responsive, I got pictures every day, my house was spotless on return. Thank you Taylor I can't recommend you any more highly.”
“Bryce followed all care instructions for Max. It was great to receive daily pictures of Max during walks or breaks. He did a great job caring for our family pet while being away overseas. I highly recommend him and look forward to needing him again in the future. Thanks for caring for Max!”
About: I currently have three dogs and three cats along with a bearded dragon. I have trained my dogs as puppies, and I also have experience in giving medication and insulin to pets. I currently work full time at a hospital, but my shifts are usually done at 3pm. I would love to spend my extra time helping out other parents of fur babies. I have a fenced in yard, with an in ground pool that has a gate. I also have two crates if needed, along with treats, food and water bowls.
“Maria is an amazing dog sitter! She took the time to learn Millie's routine and is so knowledgeable about dogs. It's clear she has a passion for taking care of animals. Great communication as well. She's the best!”
About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Maddy! 🐶🐱💕 I’m a caring, dependable pet lover who would be thrilled to take care of your furry family members! I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and spoiled while you’re away. 🥰 I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities — from energetic pups who want to play all day to shy kitties who prefer to take their time warming up. Every pet is different, and I’ll always do my best to follow their normal routines and give them the individual attention they deserve. I can help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, litter box care, and other basic routines. I’m also happy to send plenty of updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your babies are doing well! 📸💕 Whether you need a quick drop-in, regular walks, or someone to care for your pets while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Your pets aren’t “just pets” — they’re family. 🐾💗 I am currently working a part time job that allows me to be available during the days until 3 pm and late at night after 10 pm. I can easily help your animals feel relaxed in their own homes. My cats are refreshed daily with new food and water as well as maintaining my dogs current training and schedule.
About: I had numerous dogs growing up and currently have one of my own, Finley, a Goldendoodle; I adore looking after pets and others. Dogs of all energy levels are welcome as I have a large yard, great for playtime, and plenty of space to accommodate others. Plenty of experience with medicines and special needs animals, too. Routine is key with time management to make sure there adequate time for play and adventure. Every morning starts with a walk, and I typically take my own pet to the park twice a day. My home has an enclosed backyard with ample space to run around. When house/petsitting, I’ll always ensure pets are on a leash before exiting to run errands or go for a walk.

FAQs for House Sitting - North Buffalo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 816 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Buffalo. 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 North Buffalo 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 North Buffalo 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 North Buffalo 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.

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.
