“Kyla is truly the best! She has been watching my dog since she was 3 and I never have to worry about how she’s doing when I’m gone. Kyla really goes out of her way to make her feel comfortable and happy while i am gone. 10/10 high recommend!”
“My dogs' mom couldn't care for the dogs at the last second before my trip. Karen not only agreed to do it, but she went over and above by staying at the house with my pups. They were so excited to see Karen and had a lot of fun. It was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend Karen for your puppy needs!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
“Jahci did an amazing job with our two girls. One of them is super shy and timid, but warmed up to Jahci right away. She is timely and the communication was great. She took amazing care of our place as well (pretty sure she left the house cleaner than we did!) We have already booked her for a second time and our girls are looking forward to seeing her again!”
“Jordan took good care of Chance he kept my bay for 4 days while I went out of town to take care of some important business…. He left my home just the way it was when I left . Nice guy thank you Jordan”

“Valerie is a very responsible and loving pet sitter . My dog Thor is very particular on who he likes and he was drawn to her asap and even after her days of sitting - he would sit at door waiting on her . I would rebook Valerie anytime !”
About: I treat your home pets with care as I would like to be treated. Over 12 years of experience caregiving to both neighbors and friends I am currently working part time and have extra time to help out where I can. Any day of the week can work with me. You deserve safety and trusting environment and your pet deserves attention and care at any given time under all circumstances and different paths and lifestyles.
“I had a great experience with Gaby (Shannon)! This was my first time using Rover and having a house sitter for Belford, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She made the whole process easy and reassuring. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, Gaby went above and beyond by washing the bed sheets—even though it wasn’t required—which was such a thoughtful touch. My home was left in great condition, making coming back even better. I’d absolutely book with Gaby again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter!”
“Emily was great, very attentive and provided lots of daily feedback and photos. She went above and beyond what we asked of her. I would certainly recommend her for your dog/house sitting needs.”
About: While you’re away, I become your pet’s stand-in best friend. I make sure tails keep wagging, whiskers keep twitching, and every cuddle is just as good as home. I work from home, so I’m home most of the time and able to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day with feedings, potty breaks & playtime. Townhome living with a gated, fenced-in space. One friendly Shih Tzu fur baby who loves company. Pets enjoy free roam of the home and are always given attentive care.
“Cher is a 5 star house sitter taking care of my 4 year old golden retriever for 3 weeks while I was out of the country. She strike me as trustworthy, extremely clean, and very cautious when walking and monitoring your dog so you know you are in good hands and can travel in peace :) Cher cleaned up and even sanitized the apartment and her guest room, which is a pleasant surprise above and beyond her dog sitting responsibilities. (She also fixed my paper shredded which was broken for a while!). I also enjoyed the daily updates of my baby with photos and videos. Overall, highly recommended!”
“Tony is an amazing pet sitter! I would highly recommend him to anyone. He took care of my 2 pups and had me at a complete peace of mind while on vacation. He was extremely caring for them, very communicative, gave me daily updates with photos, and he kept my place so clean! 5/5 pet service.”
About: I’ve had my beautiful dog buttercup for about 10 years now and my cat Donnie for about 4 years. I’ve had multiple jobs housesitting for multi animal houses and can’t wait to add your loved ones to my experience. I have no professional obligations currently. The only task I have throughout the day is to drop my partner off to work at 5 AM and pick him up at 3 PM. Open to all care needs. My love for animals makes me very detail oriented when it comes to care. I have cared for my dog through spinal issues and my cat through a urinary blockage.
“She’s amazing! Sarah took such great care of our cats. They need a lot of love attention and she was able to handle them with TLC. She was on time, sent timely updates and made us feel completely at ease while we were away from our fur babies.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of private commercial kennels and helped with training “challenging” dogs. I enjoy getting to know their different personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Have yet to train any of my fur babies how to make coffee, but I’ll persist! I’m retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available for just one day or whatever the family needs. It’s my pleasure to serve. I will stay with your dog/s the entire booking. They will be my number one priority. It’s best when they can stay in their home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Powell Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 683 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Powell Point. 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 Powell Point 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 Powell Point 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 Powell Point 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.
