“Miraya is incredible! My plans were constantly changing and evolving but she was responsive and adaptable. My dog loves her and thinks that she's her new best friend. We just relocated and being somewhere we don't know people can be unnerving, but Miraya helped make us feel welcome and my dog feels right at home when her new friend visits!”

“Meghan is a great sitter. She kept my Huskies active during her stay. Asked lots of good questions to prepare for her first stay. She did an excellent job of providing text and picture updates.”

“Harley was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our boys, and it was clear they were completely comfortable with her. Knowing they were in such good hands while we were away gave us tremendous peace of mind. She kept us updated with messages and photos, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. I highly recommend Harley to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter—she treats your pets as if they were her own.”

About: I believe I have always been reliable to be on call to take care of and walk family friends dogs since high school. Everyone gets busy and it’s important to have someone who’s always available. Hi! I currently work part-time at a clinic and attend college courses, I maintain a structured weekly schedule. Because of this, I’m very organized and plan my bookings carefully to ensure every pet gets my full attention. I’m available during designated time blocks throughout the week and always communicate clearly about availability. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I prioritize reliability and consistency. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and maintain their normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure food and water are refreshed, walks are completed safely, and pets receive attention, enrichment, and supervision appropriate for their energy level. I’m mindful of home security, always double check doors and gates, and keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away.

About: Every pet is unique, so I tailor my approach to their specific needs, personality, and routine. From high-energy dogs needing long walks to shy cats requiring quiet playtime, I adapt to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m currently available Monday - Friday after 4:30 PM & Saturday’s 11:00 AM-2:00PM. I will be a full time student in the spring semester. But I am really good in prioritizing my schedule I love dogs.🥹 I live in a 3 bed room home. I have a backyard if needed and have a kennel I can easily crate your dog if needed.

Miraya has been such an amazing sitter for us. She has respected the various needs of our pups (takes them out separately due to reactivity) and she’s extremely attentive and communicative when one of them appears to not be feeling well. She’s also very responsive and flexible on timing. 10/10!!

Miraya is a Godsend as far as house sitters go. She is my go-to for watching over my 6 year old terrier mix Cora. Miraya is extremely responsive and timely with her visits. I always come home to a happy and cared-for dog.

Was difficult for me to use an app or a stranger to take care of my Titus. I had never left him with someone that wasn’t family or a very close friend. Meagan did an awesome job and Titus was well taken care of as well as my house while I was gone.

FAQs for House Sitting - Olmito

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 Olmito 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 Olmito 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 Olmito 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.

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.
