“Elliot was FANTASTIC watching our pup! We got updates and pictures the entire time we were gone. We came home and she was all snuggled up next to him. Super star pet sitter. We will 100% use him again! Thank you, Elliot, for taking such great care of our girl.”


“Rebecca did a great job with our pup. Our pup warmed up to her quickly, she provided updates and photos and everything was in order just as we left it when we got home. We have already rebooked for our next upcoming trip.”


“I highly recommend Allie. My dog requires twice daily injections and Allie was very accommodating to make multiple visits to practice administering insulin. She was patient and very caring with Rusty to get him comfortable with a new person providing for his care. Allie updated me with each visit and sent photos. You can tell she's a real animal lover. I will ask her to take care of Rusty next time we're out of town. ”

About: Hiya, I'm Jackson! I've always loved dogs and cats, and enjoy providing a kind and gentle environment for them. And if I'm lucky, a playful one! I would be honored to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family is well taken care of. I am more than comfortable with dog walking and housesitting to accommodate both yours and your pet's needs. I have experience with large breeds like German Shepherds, and medium ones like Huskies and Pittbulls. My schedule is quite flexible, as I currently work from home. I also have my own car for transportation, so fitting into your schedule is made easier. I treat each pet with kindness and compassion. They are just as important as any other member of the household to me. They bring so much joy and peace to our lives I couldn't imagine treating them any other way.
“I cannot speak highly enough of Hailee. This was her first time dog sitting for us, and every single thing that could have gone wrong in our house did. Our water heater broke right before she arrived and started flooding the finished basement, the plumber that fixed the water heater accidentally left the gas off so there was no heat for 24 hours, and there was a fire down the street that caused them to turn off the power to our grid. And yet, Hailee made it all a breeze. Between coordinating with our plumber, keeping the dogs calm with the commotion in the house, and keeping us in the loop. We came home to a clean house and happy & tired dogs. You would have never known that it was a crazy week. Highly recommend if you want peace of mind & will be rebooking!”

About: Through pet and house sitting, I’ve discovered how much I love caring for animals in their own homes—learning their personalities, keeping their familiar routines, and helping them feel comfortable while their people are away. I have 10 reviews on TrustedHousesitters and have been welcomed back by several families for multiple stays, with more repeat sits already booked for next year. My stays have ranged from short visits to several months. Owners consistently mention my attentive care, regular updates and photos, and the peace of mind they feel knowing their pets and home are in good hands. I’ve cared for puppies, energetic dogs, senior dogs, cats, and households with multiple pets. I follow feeding and medication instructions closely and adapt to each animal’s needs, whether that means walks and playtime or a gentler pace and quiet companionship. I’m also a proud dog grandma to my daughter’s French bulldog, Capri! I work remotely as a parent coach, which gives me flexibility to plan around your pet’s routine.

I work remotely as a parent coach, so I have flexibility to fit pet care into my day. I plan around the routines we agree on, including meals, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and company.

“Amazing!!! Absolutely amazing! Thomas took very good care of our Golden Retriever (Broddie) and Shih Tzu (Destiny). This was our first time using Rover for dog sitting, nervous and was very impressed with Thomas willingness to bond with our furry ones and ensure that he had everything needed to take care of both dogs. Provides daily overviews of the activities, and things done throughout the day (photos included). Not only did he take care of our dogs but was willing to take care of our Ferret and Goldfish and still did an amazing job! Very clean and organized with day planning and capable of working with a provided schedule. Will totally recommend Thomas to anyone!”

“I felt extremely safe leaving my anxious pup with Thalia! I was updated during the day and was very reassured when I expressed concern about Morti’s behaviors. Definitely going to book with Thalia again!”

“I highly recommend Alexyss! I am so glad I was able to find a sitter who loves my dog as much as I do. She has great experience , especially with bully breeds which left me at ease when going away! She is kind and attentive, and overall just loves animals! I am so grateful to have found her as a sitter!”

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 Port Murray 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 Port Murray 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 Port Murray 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.
