“Joyce is THE BEST! We highly recommend her pet sitting services. She pays attention to every detail and directions for your pet. Her experience is quite evident. Most importantly, she is inherently kind hearted and patient, sensitive and intuitive to your pets needs. She will not hesitate to go that extra mile. She kept us well informed with updates of their eating, activity, situations and even sent us pictures of them as well. We can’t say enough good things about her. She stayed at our house for 3 days; we have the utmost trust regarding her honesty and responsibility.”
“Erin was perfect! She gave us updates regularly and was the best house guest, the house was in better condition than it was when we left. She was flexible on the cost too because we have a ridiculous amount of fur babies which we really appreciated. She even brought in mail without being asked!! We will definitely be asking her to care for our pets again!!”
“Kris did an amazing job watching our dogs and caring for our home. He had good communication, kept the dogs routines and cleaned up after himself including washing the sheets and making the bed where he slept. He sat for us before, and we will definitely use him again.”
“Samantha was amazing. She took great care of my pups, stayed in touch, sent pictures and updates. Dill and Willow were happy as clams when I got home and I will absolutely book her again!!!”
“Venessa was nothing short of amazing. We last minute needed someone to stay with our dogs for a day while we were at work and she answered the call! I was sent pictures of my 3 fur babies all day with constant updates and communication. I will without a doubt be calling on Venessa again when we need someone to stay with the dogs.”
“We had Lindsay house sit and watch our pets while we were gone for a holiday and everything went smoothly. She kept us updated and sent pictures and we came home to happy pets and a clean house.”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have always loved being around animals. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve been a trusted friend for many people when they need someone reliable to watch their animals, whether that means feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’m responsible, attentive, and enjoy getting outside for walks and fresh air with dogs. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, or calm companionship, I’m happy to provide caring and dependable support while you’re away. I work remote and choose my own hours which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets around your schedule. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and have been a trusted friend for many when they need someone reliable to look after their animals. I’m responsible, attentive, and love spending time outdoors, playing, and keeping pets happy and comfortable while their humans are away. When I care for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I provide feeding, walks or playtime, litter box or potty care, and lots of attention and companionship. I respect your home and any rules you have, keep everything tidy, and send updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority.
About: My golden is my boss, and I love it. I have had dogs my whole life and am finally in a position where I can help other people with their pups. Walking, playing…I can’t wait to meet all your puppers and doggos! I currently work part time so have pretty open availability for walks and playing. I could potentially board but it would have to be a good fit with my pup. I take my dog Simon on 3 walks a day as I live in an apartment. Keeps me active and him happy. I will do whatever the client needs I order to keep their pets as happy as mine.
About: Hey there fury friends and owners! I'm Bailey and I love animals, I have car, dog, bird and farm animal experience. I would love to help youtake care of yours. I'm so looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for stopping by my page. My availability currently is pretty open. I’m available part-time on a weekly service-perhaps every couple days if needed. It all depends on the location and services needed. I’m unsure how many pets I’m willing to take on at the moment. I can’t help but speak to an animal in high pitch tones as well as full on conversation with them like they’re answering me! Anything to get a head twist or a butt wiggle.
About: I have been watching my family dogs since I was a kid. looked after childhood german shepard until she was 18 and raised my family basset hound and husky from puppies. trained my family husky during the pandemic. I love dogs and animals and am looking forward to meet so many more :) I am currently only working for my family dogs (no job) so I have plenty of time to work for more dogs part time :) I love dogs and will treat every dog with the same gentleness and loving that I would provide in my own home. I will not let your dog get away with doing something they are not supposed to but of course kindness to your family member is my priority.
About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and neighbors. I’ve handled feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight stays. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and routines and always aim to make them feel safe and comfortable. I am currently seeking for a job and have a really flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I could possibly do weekends, but it depends on how available I can be to help. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any other specific instructions provided. I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe in their own environment.
“Chelsie was a fantastic carer for my calico! She even won over my prickly princess ❤️. House was left spotless and I came home to happy, stress free kitties. Will book again!”
About: Certified dog trainer and behaviorist. Pet CPR certified Medication dispensing knowledge Grooming knowledge I own a 2 year old Goldendoodle, Winnie. I raised her while going to school for my certification from 12 weeks old. I practice positive reinforcement with balanced training. We work hard and play harder, and love an active lifestyle. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I intentionally keep my schedule open so I can provide consistent, attentive care. I enjoy staying busy and working with animals daily. Available 7 days a week, typically 9am–9pm. Weekend availability varies based on client needs. Animals in my care are treated like family, but with structure. I provide clear boundaries, routine, and guidance so pets feel secure and understood. Pets are given time to play, eat, potty, train, and rest. I incorporate basic manners and calm behavior into daily care so they’re not just being watched—they’re learning. I have a young child in the home, so I need to know ahead of time if a pet is sensitive or reactive around children. Requirements: Up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies) No intact dogs over 2 years old Must be safe to handle in a home environment I also use long leads when appropriate to safely allow freedom while maintaining control, which is helpful for recall and behavior work.
About: I am an experienced caregiver of pets. In my family is Otis the dog, cats Earl and Sarah, a Galah Cockatoo named Warren and Henry and Marty McFly the budgies. Otis gets along with both dogs and cats and loves to have a buddy to romp with in the yard. I have met some of the most wonderful caregivers here on Rover who helped when I’ve needed to go out of town and would love to help other pet parents when they need to be away for a time. I will provide photos and keep you updated for your peace of mind. I work part-time night shift. My schedule varies but I have lots of availability for feathered and furry friends. Please feel free to check with me about your pet care needs. I have a fenced yard and can provide supervised outdoor playtime or cuddling on the couch. Our dog Otis loves company and to have playmates visit. He gets along really well with other dogs and with cats.
“Samantha was very communicative, sent lots of pictures upon request and took great care of our home while we were away for five nights. We have three dogs which we know can be a handful and Samantha had no problem stepping up, walking them multiple times a day, cleaning them if needed, and left the home in great shape, with her bedding washed and folded. Would recommend. Thank you”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 121 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Olequa. 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 Olequa 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 Olequa 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 Olequa 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.
