About: Hi my name is Alexis, I am a 19 year old college student. I have raised and cared for my own dog for over 4 years, handling everything from daily walks to strict feeding schedules. I regularly provide sitting and drop-in care for family members’ dogs. Whether your pet is a high-energy puppy who needs long walks or a couch potato who wants belly rubs, I know how to keep them safe, happy, and on their regular routine. I treat every guest pet with the exact same love and responsibility I give to my own! My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to make pets my top priority. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends, I have open availability for walks, drop-ins, and constant companionship. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I attend Butte College for two short classes (1 hour and 15 minutes each). Since my campus schedule is light, I am able to easily structure my day around pet care: When caring for your pet in your home, my top priorities are maintaining their exact routine and leaving your house exactly how I found it. I adapt completely to your home rules so your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Lauren did a great job caring for our animals while we were gone on a last minute trip! She sent updates and was very communicative and friendly and left our house in great condition!”
“The nicest sweetest person ever! Our dogs loved her immediately. She’s the best! I look forward to having Mariah be with our doggies again! Thank you sweet Mariah! ?❤️?❤️???❤️”
“Ashley took care of our beloved Murphy expertly. She always provided pictures and updates to us. She was also available wherever we needed to talk on the phone. While she house sat and took care of our cat, she also watered all our plants and our home was spotless after our week-long vacation. We would highly recommend Ashley to care for any of your fur babies and home.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. From going through their daily routines to understanding their unique personalities and boundaries, I provide attentive, loving care. I have also handled farm sitting, so I am comfortable with a wide range of animals and responsibilities. I am currently a college student, so my schedule may vary slightly by semester. I'm flexible and prioritize clear, consistent communication to coordinate what works best for you and your pet. I provide calm, in-home care by sticking closely to your pet's routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy, and that your pets feel safe and secure while you're away.
“Christina is awesome! She took great care of our babies and house while we were out of town for 2 weeks. She sent lots of pictures and left the house incredibly clean when we got back!”
“Jessica was great! She was very attentive and keeping me updated with pics and reports on how she and my dog were doing. I would highly recommend her to others and if I’m ever in need of a sitter again I’ll hope she will be available. :)”
About: I am a licensed and insured company that takes care of pets. Everything your fur humans will need will be accommodated here with so much love. For your beloved pets I have a schedule at the house for everything you want done whether it's from feeding to walking to home checks. I have everything at my home a pet could need a huge fence to backyard and I will follow all the protocols you have for your own pet
“Aly is the BEST!!!!! I have all rescue pets, which means they can be challenging at times. We have 3 large dogs, 4 cats, 2 horses and 6 chickens. Their ages range from 1 year old minions (kittens) to seniors. We also live outin the country which can be a challenge and of course our new well pump had an issue. Aly handled it better than I!😆 The best compliment I can give is that when we came home, all the kids were excited to see us, but all were acting normal and happy, not like the usual "you abandoned us" attitude. Bonus, Aly even washed her own sheets (not something I would have asked her to do or expected). Again, she's the BEST!!!!”
“Tylyn is awesome! She took great care of my dog and cat while I was away. She sent me regular photos, took my dog on walks and adventures, and kept me up to date about how things were going. And she took amazing care of my house to boot! I hope I can use her again when I travel.”
“Sequoyah is a very thoughtful and caring person. She took great care of our dog and our home while we were away, and sent frequent updates and photos. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing Harper was in great hands!”
About: I’ve been around all kinds of dogs since I was young. I have always loved being around dogs(and cats!), I definitely bond better with animals than humans. I love my mini Australian shepherd, Ollie, with my whole entire heart, and I would love your pets as well💕 I work part time, so I am available pretty much always! The days I work, it is from 5:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. so I would have the rest of the day to hang with your animals! Now that summer is here and school is over, my availability is even more open. I am able to follow any expectations or requests left concerning your pets! I will not be boarding other’s pets in my own home however, I am only available for home stay in overnight situations.
“Alisa was great! She is great at communicating, did everything I asked, and my dog loves her! Would definitely want to have her as a sitter again! She took great care of my house and my pets!”
About: I have a dog of my own who I love and adore. Got him at 8 weeks so well experienced in the puppy stage. I have also fostered some dogs from nearby shelters I’m relatively active and enjoy long walks I also understand sometimes not being able to be home to take care of your furbaby and I’d like to just make sure you’re stress free in case of anything As a full-time profesional and Master’s student, I maintenance structure and reliable weekly routine that allows me to provide consistency and attentive pet care. On weekdays I work a standard work schedule. On weekends is when I’m more open. In my home pets receive safe, clean, and comfortable environment with regular feedings, walks, playtime, and supervision. I follow owners routine as close as possible to make both your fur baby and yourself feel comfortable and safe. In clients homes I am respectful and maintain the pets normal schedule.
About: Since I was a young child, I have been fond of pets, and as an adult, my affection for them has only increased. I'm passionate about getting to know the many kinds of animals. Throughout the years, I have offered to help, taken care of family and friends' pets, and loved my own pets. My availability is open. I am available to stay overnight and can visit your pets in the early morning ☀️ and late at night 🌙. When handling frightened or shy animals I try to maintain a sense of calm and patience. Because they are sensitive to change and can be missing their family members. I try to keep my lovely Sasha😽 on the same schedule. Give her healthy, food that is high in nutrients. Give her Access to Clean Water. Give her a Warm and Caring Home. Whenever she needs to Answer Nature's Call she always has a well maintains litter box to go too . I always try to find fun toys for her to keep her occupied while I work.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have experience with dogs who have special needs, specifically, neurological disorders requiring medication administration. I’ve spent the last two years training my dog, Bubba, through separation anxiety and reactive aggression. He went from chasing cats to occasionally taking naps with them. My first dog, Lilly, was reactive to dogs and when I brought home Bubba as a puppy, my family called him “snack” because they didn’t think it was possible, but she immediately took him in and they were inseparable for 7 years! I’ve always been gifted at reading animals - humans, not so much. I will always advocate for those who can’t advocate for themselves :) I’m available every day, whenever you need! I recently quit my job and needed a fun way to get a little extra cash before moving to the PNW! Unfortunately, my dog is an anti-social introvert and doesn’t like visitors. His house, his rules… However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet inside of your home!
“Sarah was a wonderful sitter. She showed so much care for our dog. She was communicative and I felt so comfortable knowing she was there. When we returned from a week long trip our dog seemed so content and our house looked great! I would definitely hire Sarah again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pentz
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 301 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pentz. 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 Pentz 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 Pentz 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 Pentz 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 Pentz. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 88% 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.
