“Great experience with Rene! He watched Karma in my home while I was away in Reno, followed all directions, communicated great, and took excellent care of him — all at a very reasonable price. Reliable, attentive, and trustworthy — highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I'm Kristina and I've been a veterinarian technician for 5 years! I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, affection, and devotion I give my own dog, Echo. I specialize in customized care tailored to your pet's unique personality—from energetic playtime and structured walks to gentle belly rubs and quiet companionship. I love keeping owners updated with frequent photo updates and detailed check-ins so you never have to worry while you're away. To ensure the safety and well-being of your pet, I require the assistance of a second person for administering injections or difficult medications if the animal becomes highly uncooperative. This helps keep stress low and procedures safe for everyone. I'm currently looking to sit for your fur babies part time while I'm out navigating a new work schedule for the time being Routine & Comfort: Keeps pets stress-free in their familiar environment by sticking strictly to their normal feeding, walking, and sleep schedules. Health & Safety: Precise administration of medications, daily litter/yard cleanup, secure handling, and close monitoring for any behavioral changes.
“She took very good care of our black Shepherd and our Cairin terrier. The terrier was the needy one not the shepherd, but she took special care with the Shepherd to the shed him. He looks like he lost 10 pounds Thank you, Alma for everything you did while we were gone”
“Bari took care of our dog for 10 days, which is a big deal for our dog. She took great care of him and sent lots of photos and updates. Bari is also very respectful of our home when she stays. And she's so sweet and nice to interact with. I appreciate Bari so much and am so grateful that she watches our dog and our home while we're away!”
About: I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. Growing up we had two labs and my neighbor fostered great danes, so I am very experienced with caring for large breeds. I often cared for my neighbors pets while they were out of town, so I have experience caring for a wide range of pets from cats and dogs to chickens and pigs. I work mostly remote, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I typically take pets on a long walk 2 times a day, in the morning and around 6-7pm. I am very responsible and detail oriented. I am pet friendly and very happy to let pets roam and sit on furniture, but am also able to crate train if desired. I am also very active and would love to take your pet on walks and hikes with me, but would also be happy relaxing at home keeping your pet company.
“Jenna had her hands full with my two pups for sure! She did a fantastic job taking care of them and was super responsive with sending me updates and pictures each day. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Lance is incredible! We had a pretty tough ask, a full week of overnights with a nervous Clumber Spaniel. Well about 36 hours in Lance and Perry were best friends and they had the pics to prove it. Lance is a real pro, methodical and conscientious when it comes to pet care, we highly recommended him for all your pet care needs.”
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals, dogs, cats chickens, even pet rats and pet snakes! A favorite activity of mine a has always been taking our family dogs out for a run. I’ve had lots of experience with puppies and large breed dogs like Rottweilers and German shepherds. If you would like to schedule me for a run with your dog, Please specify that in your message. I’d like to know a little about your pup and the area that you live before I accept a run. I currently have a flexible job so I’d love to work your dogs walk or run into my routine. I love to run so if I can bring a dog with me to hit my miles and burn their energy, its a win! Mornings or evenings are my favorite time to run, while being careful of pavement heat and making sure the dog is happy and healthy. But I’m available some middays for check ins! My dog loves routine, so we have ours down. I’m happy to follow whatever your routine for your pet is, so that they are happy and comfortable!
“Alayna was fantastic! She helped me with two last-minute changes to the booking, and I knew my Zelie was in good hands with Alayna. I will continue to book Alayna to care for Zelie whenever I go out of town.”

“Rosemarie came to visit us and meet Lulu before the dog sitting date, which was very nice as they got acquainted with each other. On Thanksgiving Day Rosemarie arrived early and begin bonding with Lulu right away. We weee gone for a long time. Rosemarie fed and walked with Lulu. She sent us photos and even spent time cuddling with Lulu. We would definitely recommend Rosemarie and have no reservations about using her in the future as well as recommending to others. Thank you, Rosemarie!”
“Dani is an absolute top notch dog sitter. She watched our dogs and our house over the week of Christmas while we traveled. She made sure to meet the dogs before that week, asked all the important questions, and was patient with our picky little Chihuahua. While we were gone she sent daily photos, clarified anything that wasn’t clear, and made sure our dogs were entertained during a rainy couple of days. She left our house clean and well cared for. I would ask her to dog sit again in a heartbeat.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I have my own cat, Button, whom I love dearly and have taken care of pets for my friends lately. I am in between jobs so I am free to work with whatever schedule you have. If you have leftover food that needs to be used, I’d be happy to not let them go to waste. I prefer to care for your pets in their home territory. I am very easy going and happy to follow any instructions you have for me.
“Oh my gosh!! What an amazing sitter! When I got home my pups were so happy, calm and well behaved. They are usually crazy men when I get home. Natalie somehow gave them manors in the short time she had them. I would definitely book and rebook again with her.”
“Janessa did a fantastic job watching my cat and house while I was away. She sent regular photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind knowing everything was being well cared for. My cat was happy and relaxed when I returned, and the house was just as I left it. I would definitely hire Janessa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

Another great overnight with my pup! Hilda is awesome. She made sure my pup was well taken care of with walks and playtime, sent tons of pictures and left my house in order and clean. It’s a relief to leave my pup with someone I can trust. Thank you so much!
Julia recently cared for our 16 year old cat, Leaux, over night/s in our home. She did a fantastic job with him, following his frequent meal plan and giving him lots of cuddles. She also took extra care to calm him during the night when he cried out (several times) as he has a little older kitty dementia. She also took extra good care of our home. She sent me pictures and kept excellent communication along the way. It’s been a day since I’ve gotten home and he still keeps going into the guest room to see if she’s still there. He misses her. Don’t hesitate to book Julia for your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Parkway is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Parkway 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 Parkway 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 Parkway 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.
