“Vanessa was lovely! Very communicative and friendly. This is our first time having someone stay at the house instead of dropins and I'm very glad we found her for a longer trip we have coming up. The house is as we left it and our cat is in good spirits. Thank you again!”
“Sam was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs and they loved her company so much. She watched the dogs while we had to travel far for a concert and she kept them loved and entertained until we returned. She is kind, sweet and clearly loves our dogs. She updated us with photos and kept us up to date frequently. We will hire her again without question!”
“Tiara and Carlos sat for my 2 dogs in my house and left the dogs happy and well cared for, and my house cleaner than they found it. We had a few hiccups in communication to start with, with Tiara arriving late for our first meeting, and not being at the house before I had to leave for the airport as we had planned. My vacation started off with me having undue anxiety because I didn't know when either she or Carlos would show up to my house and I had to leave to catch my flight without having the reassurance someone was there with the dogs. I adopted my youngest dog just 6 months ago and hadn't left her with anyone overnight and was very nervous to do so. The lack of consistent communication while I was away also left me feeling nervous and detracted from my vacation, as I kept wondering how they were doing. Tiara did take very good care of them; it's only the communication that we could improve. I really appreciated coming home to such a tidy house and happy and healthy pups!”
“An excellent dog sitter who is responsive, attentive, easy to communicate with, and most importantly, great with our dogs! Jonathan took great care of our pups and our condo while we were away for about 4 days. Would absolutely recommend!”
“This was Teri's first time watching our dog Bowie. She stayed at our house for the weekend and kept us up to date throughout her stay with texts, pictures and even a video! She is incredibly reliable, responsible and we felt at ease having her at our house with Bowie. We are so glad we met her and look forward to having someone we trust continue to watch our pup :)”
“Kara was amazing! I have an 8 year old retired service dog that I was vacationing without for the first time. Kara helped me feel at ease and enjoy my time away without having to worry. She was super detail oriented and communicative. I came home to a clean, healthy, and very happy dog. Highly recommend!!”
About: “I stand out for my patience and dedication. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, from puppies that need training to older pets that require special attention. I always prioritize the safety, well-being and happiness of each animal, adapting to their individual needs. I also have experience taking care of the elderly. " "Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I dedicate specific time for walks, feeding, games and supervision, making sure that each pet receives constant attention, exercise and affection, without affecting my other responsibilities." "When I take care of pets in my home, I create a safe, clean and comfortable environment, making sure they have fresh water, food, exercise and daily playtime. At the client's home, I follow all his specific instructions to maintain the pet's routine, respecting his habits and individual needs."
About: I grew up with a golden retriever and have owned numerous rabbits in my life! I have assisted my friend that owns a doggy daycare business by dog walking and overnight sitting. I am a registered nurse, so I know a good deal of medical knowledge that may be helpful under certain circumstances! I work in a hospital 3 days a week therefore my schedule is very flexible, so I’m excited to care for your pet needs when you’re away & unavailable! I do not currently board, but I do love sitting at animals’ homes! I will always keep a close eye on the animals, as cuddling or playing is always talking place.
About: I've had two dogs of my own - one blind, and the other deaf. I am happy to manage your pet's quirks while we're having a great time together, too. Every pet needs something different, so I'll pay close attention to the details of your instructions. I'm also very focused on safety: leashes and familiar walks are a must! I am a teacher, so during the school year, I am available after 4:00pm to check in on your pet so everyone is happy when you arrive home. Also, I am booking now for summer - I would love to share my time off with your pets! I am a teacher during the school year, so my summer is wide open. I do enjoy visiting a few clients each day - it adds some structure to my own life! At my place, I have an air-conditioned apartment and a small porch where your pet and I can relax. We can take walks in the neighborhood or along the rail trail, located right across the street. Leashes and tags are always a must! In your home, I'll be sensitive to your pet's routines and habits around the house. Likewise, I'll be careful about your privacy and the condition of your home. In either location, we can agree on a timetable so you can expect pictures and updates of your special pet.
“Natalie has stayed at my house and cared for my 50lbs retriever pit mix twice now and she is fantastic. Responsive, responsible, affectionate and loving with my dog! I will continue to hire her and recommend highly!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have always had cats, including experience with a disabled cat who needed extra patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medication, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets. I have also provided dog walking, feeding, and playtime for dogs of all sizes for family and friends. Pet parents can trust that I will treat their pets as if they were my own—keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I work full-time in a hybrid role, which means I’m home most weekdays and can keep a close eye on your pets throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks, drop-ins, and other services on weekdays after work hours. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and care so your pets are never left alone for long. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with my friendly cat, so visiting pets will feel right at home. I always introduce dogs to my cat slowly and safely to make sure everyone is comfortable. I keep my home clean and secure, and I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them happy and stress-free. With several parks and a beach nearby, I can give dogs plenty of fresh air and exercise. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

I’m unfortunately not able to pet sit at my own home due to a family member with allergies. I have been pet sitting at clients home for about 5 years.

“Libby was wonderful! We were in need of a sitter for week long travel due to family members moving out of the area. Libby came for a meet and greet in the week prior and the dogs/cats loved her! During her stay at the house, she was very communicative, sharing updates and asking questions when needed. She kept the house clean and checked in before the week's end offering to do anything else needed! Our mini zoo enjoyed having Libby stay and we are very grateful to have a dependable sitter available when needed. Highly recommend!”
About: From 🦀 to 🐴 (but no seahorse experience, sorry) I adore all creatures great and small, “and your little dog too” as someone who didn’t much like to get wet once said! Experienced, sincere and trustworthy housesitter and petsitter but new to this app, I’ll add some of my favorite fur-tography inevitably but many are passed away and it makes me sad. My undivided attention, I’m doing this because I love to, not because I’m bored. It’s worthwhile to me to be of use. To the old fashioned manners born, to treat another’s home with respect and care, to leave any place indoors or out of doors in a golden-rule adjacent way.
About: I've owned and taken care of animals all my life. It truly is my first and only passion. I have been complimented on my animal energy and ability to connect with them by family, friends and acquaintances. I just have a natural knack, and love connecting and understanding all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am currently a stay at home mom with teenagers that only need me for rides and money! lol I have a very flexible schedule and I can make pet care easily available any time of the day. I have 2 acres of land, with a barn and fenced in area for dogs to roam. I abut 17 acres of land and trails for walking and exploring.
About: I got my own dog (Cavapoo) in 2020 and spent a substantial amount of time training him when he was a puppy. I have also done overnight dog sitting for a family I regularly babysit for. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! 😊 I am currently a school-based mental health therapist. Half of the week, I work remotely. I am looking for house/pet sitting roles that allow me to go to work (when in-person) for a few hours and then come back to be with your pet the rest of the afternoon/night. I am usually totally free on the weekends!! I tend to spoil pets (in a good way)! I give them lots of attention and love. I love cuddling with pets, taking them on walks, and giving them treats. I am also very attuned and consistent with any predetermined schedules or routines that you may have for your pet
“Keelyn stepped in to take care of our dog the day before we left for a trip when the first sitter we hired informed us last minute that she had a conflict and would not prioritize her Rover contract with us. Keily was punctual and followed our instructions. She reported on our dog’s status and sent us photos every day. We could tell Beau was treated well and loved while we were gone. We came home to a clean house and a healthy and happy dog.”
“Sean was amazing! She sent pictures daily of the dogs and their activities. She followed the instructions left for her. It was so nice to have the peace of mind that my fur babies were being well taken care of while we were away. Will definitely use her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Prides Crossing
We are very happy with the care Bella provided for Sonny when she spent the day/evening at our home. She genuinely loves dogs & quickly formed a bond with our little guy. We have already booked Bella for another stay and will continue to depend on her kind, loving & responsible pet care services!
We had a fantastic experience with Leah! She stayed in our home to watch our pup, Candy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Leah was incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, providing frequent updates that gave us total peace of mind. Candy was well-cared for and clearly happy, and we returned home to find everything in perfect order. It’s such a relief to find someone who treats both your pet and your home with such care and respect. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet 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 Prides Crossing 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 Prides Crossing 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 Prides Crossing 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.
