“Charlene was great. She sat both our dog and cat at our home and we were very happy with things went. She was very communicative and left the place in great condition, and both Finn and Rey were well loved. We would use Charlene again.”
“Lily is amazing! Extremely conscientious, followed all instructions to a T, great communication and sent so many photos. And most importantly, the pups loved her. So happy to have found Lily!”
“I was extremely lucky to book such a qualified professional on such short notice. Communication and preparation was an easy process first of all. At the same time, while I was away from home for my military obligations, communication and updates stayed consistent. Aicha even double-checked to make sure I was receiving her messages. I was in a very isolated area doing mountain warfare training, and at the same time studying for tests to advance my career. Just saying, I could have been more responsive if I wasn't so busy. Aicha still went above and beyond to ensure I knew Chief was well taken care of. This fact was reinforced upon my arrival home. Chief actually seemed kind of sad that he wasn't seeing Aicha every day!! Aicha is amazing and will provide your pet with more than enough love, care, and affection. She is a TOP provider and I highly recommend her to others!!!!”
“Jessie is amazing! She took the best care of our pets and sent cute photos, which we appreciated. She also was trustworthy, responsive, professional and delightful. She was very tidy and helpful with other household needs. We will definitely work with Jessie again. She is fantastic!!”
“Ashlee is the best! She is so good with my doggies. She has to work to get them to warm up to her and then they fall in love with her. She house sits for us and even sleeps with our “girls” on the bed. She goes above and beyond so we always know we come home to happy doggies and a clean and well kept home! 5 stars!!!!”
“Daniella is wonderfully attentive to our 4-month-old puppy’s needs. Ash is still in the midst of potty training, and Daniella patiently observes Ash’s cues to ensure he makes his potty breaks on time. She doesn’t hesitate to spend time with him in his indoor playpen, actively engaging him in play while ensuring his safety, especially now that he can reach the top panel at chest height. Daniella also keeps our daily journal up to date with Ash’s meals and potty schedule, which helps us stay on track with his routine. We’re so grateful for her care and attention.”

“Sarah is just the sweetest thing! So attentive our fur babies loved her! Very communicative and sent pictures often which we love. Can’t wait to have her dog/cat sit again.❤️ we would highly recommend her!”
“Brandie is absolutely incredible. We have two cats and a little dog, all boys. Our dog has a lot of anxiety and struggles with new people. Within the first few hours he warmed right up to Brandie. All three boys looked so content and happy all week. Brandie was very communicative and always responded immediately. She did everything we requested and more. Went above and beyond in taking care of the house and our boys. We are so grateful to Brandie and cannot recommend her enough. She will absolutely be sitting for us again. We cannot wait to have her back and neither can Neil, Migi, & Buster! ❤️”
“Ryckie was super sweet and really wonderful with our senior dog, who has terrible arthritis, is a finicky eater, and needs extra attention due to his need to "potty" often. She made sure to keep him company whilst we were out of town, and our home was perfectly cared for. She even switched a day up due to an error on my behalf, and we are so grateful for her flexibility. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Celia went above and beyond doing a few overnight stays taking care of my senior cat. She is a joy to be around and also cooked us a meal for when we got home. Thank you so much, you are appreciated!”
“OMG, Nadiia is the best❣️. So very attentive, caring of my 2 rescue chugs, one blind needing meds and eye drops 3 times a day. So communicative with videos and pics. I highly recommend Nadiia here on Rover for your furbabies too ✨️. Buttons and Bows look forward to seeing her again in September 💞🐾”

FAQs for House Sitting - Paloma
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 234 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Paloma. 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 Paloma 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 Paloma 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 Paloma 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Paloma. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
