I follow the rules of the pet parent. For drop-in visits, I review the checklist from the pet owner, ensure the individual safety and environmental comfort needs of each pet, use gentle and positive techniques to build trust and confidence, respect each pet's personality, boundaries, and pace. I report the pet's physical behavior and mood during/after each visit. I send a completed checklist and photos of their loved ones. Enjoy as many photos as you want, and videos.

About: I am always the first to call when someone I know needs pet care! I have also worked in a veterinary hospital with dogs and cats. As of now, I have a very open schedule. I am willing to care overnight or just drop by for a quick walk. I am flexible! I live in a home with a fenced in backyard. I have one dog and cat of my own, and my dog is crate-trained. Both get along with all animals great! My dog is a border collie mix, and is not aggressive at all. My house is also is 2 minute walk to a park with a field and walking track!
“I had such a great experience with Katelyn watching Oakley! She stayed at my house for the weekend and took such great care of her. She was reliable, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Oakley was in good hands. I came home to a happy pup and everything in the house was just as I left it. Would definitely recommend her and would love to have her watch Oakley again! ❤️”
About: Animals have always been such a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I am so passionate about. I'm currently a college student pursuing my dream of becoming a veterinarian, so providing animals with the love and attention they deserve means so much to me. Growing up surrounded by animals, I've developed a strong understanding of their different personalities and routines. I have more than 8 years of experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, cats, and even dogs with special needs! I understand every dog is different, and I always make it a priority to ensure they are well taken care of. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family! I'm currently a college student at the University of Arkansas, pursing my dream of becoming a vet! My class schedule gives me flexibility throughout the week, and I love spending my free time caring for dogs. I'm available morning, afternoon, and evening depending on my classes, with additional flexibility on the weekends. Your pet's safety and happiness are always my biggest priorities! As an aspiring veterinarian, I understand how important it is to pay attention to each animal's individual needs and behaviors. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I also love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing! I treat every animal like family and treat every home with the utmost respect!

“Jenna was so great! My dog is standoffish with new people, but Jenna made sure to keep me updated and made my dog her best friend by the end of the stay.

About: I have taken care of my late senior pup and helped her with her glaucoma, gave her medicine, and helped change her diapers and just provided love towards the end! I also had a large Rottweiler who loved to play outdoors as well as tug of war. I also helped deter them from other dogs who got too rowdy. I’m currently a sophomore in college at UARK, for holidays and summer I live in Grapevine, Texas. My class schedule is a little bit all over the place but we can most definitely work times out if you message me privately! I respect the owners wishes with how they like their pup to be handled! I will play outdoors with them, give them treats for good behavior, take them on walks, feed them at required times, and bathe them if needed.
About: I had my first dog when I was 8 and raised her from a puppy for 5 years. Also, I’ve been pet/dog (e.g. dogs, cat, reptiles, etc.) and house sitting for several years. I graduated from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, was born and raised in Northwest Arkansas, and currently volunteer with the Fayetteville animal shelter. I’m currently working full-time M-F from 8am-5pm with a few breaks. More than willing to do whatever takes to ensure you and your pet are most comfortable. We have several parks nearby within a quaint neighborhood. I have a 2BR apartment, no pets, and tons of amenities available (dog park, walking trails, etc.).
“Chelsea was an amazing pet sitter! She sent pics and updates multiple times a day and contacted me to clarify anything she was not 100% sure of. I really appreciate that effort, rather than assuming things that could lead to negative outcomes. She was very kind, and my pets were extremely comfortable with her, which my Kitty can be VERY picky, and my dog Mac is very anxious. 10/10!”
About: I grew up with animals! I have had a dog in my home since I was born and I believe that they are truly a part of the family.

I do not currently have any pets, so I am able to give all my attention to yours :) I am a runner and stay active - so I can take hyperactive dogs for a run or to the park for some exercise!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pitkin Corner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 503 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pitkin Corner. 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 Pitkin Corner 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 Pitkin Corner 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 Pitkin Corner 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
