“Adam sat for us while we were on a summer trip to Tahoe. He is awesome! He took Bodie for a walk, played with him, and watched him in our Airbnb for two afternoons so that we could go do dog-free activities. Adam got along well with our energetic Kelpie. We HIGHLY recommend him!!”

About: I have been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by animals my entire life, and they have always held a very special place in my heart. Animals seem to naturally sense my calm energy and gravitate toward me, which helps me build a trusting connection with them quickly. I genuinely love caring for all living things and bring that same patient, gentle approach to babysitting children as well.My deep bond with nature has inspired me to study and work toward becoming a wildlife conservationist so I can protect our natural environment. When I look after your pets and home, I treat them with the same tenderness and responsibility I would give to my own family. I’m here to make sure your pets feel completely safe, loved, and comforted while you’re away. I’m currently working at wolf by vanderpump as a hostess. My hours range from 2pm-10pm weekdays, and on fridays and saturday 4pm-12am, currently looking for a less stressful and draining job! Keeping your pets safe and comfortable is my absolute priority. When I stay at your home, I keep a close eye on their routines, double check that doors and gates are secure, and make sure their environment stays peaceful and familiar.Because of my gentle approach and deep love for nature, I am very mindful of their surroundings during walks or playtime. I am always patient, highly attentive, and focused on making sure they feel secure and loved every moment you are away.
“This was my first time using Elizabeth and I have to say for somebody who was able to help myself and my dog Ted out last minute, she did a fantastic job. Elizabeth was great communicating with me and sending me pictures and updates about Ted. She followed all of my instructions and even tidied up the house before we got back, you can tell she truly is an animal lover, and I will be using her again in the future”
“Mariah is a gem! She is a great communicator, sent lots of pics and updates. We were at ease the whole time we were gone, feeling confident our dogs were being well cared for by Mariah. Lisa M”

“Sarah was fantastic with our dog, Brody, and super flexible with our schedule. She was genuinely invested in making sure he was well taken care of, adjusted her schedule for what was best for us and Brody, and really made us feel like he was in good hands! Also sent a ton of pictures and great communication! Would absolutely recommend and will use Sarah again!”
“Annette is highly professional, and I could not be more thankful to have her to watch my kitty. Annette stepped up very last minute, and I knew immediately that she would be the perfect sitter. She was excellent with communication, very caring and loving, and I felt completely comfortable having her stay in my home. My heart was warmed with updates and photos of Del while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Annette to other pet parents.”
“When we found ourselves in a pinch with our previous pet sitter canceling 3 days before a multi-week vacation abroad, Lauren saved us. Not only did she offer to stay, she came by to meet us and our dog to sense if it would be a good fit for all involved. She was a great vibrational fit for us and we sensed immediately what a good person she was. During the say, she communicated well with us about our home and our dog. When we arrived home, we found our dog well and balanced, a clean and orderly house and plants thriving. We can't say enough how lucky you would be to have someone as responsible and compassionate as Lauren care for your animal and home. We'd ask her back in a heartbeat.”

Fantastic! Diana was wonderful with my two dogs. I had to leave at 5 AM on Saturday and she was at the house by 730 AM to feed and walk them, then took care of them until I got back on Sunday evening. She was communicative and sent so many photos that I knew the dogs were happy and healthy the entire time. We will absolutely work with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 297 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Phillips. 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 Phillips 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 Phillips 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 Phillips 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.
