“Evan was professional and showed care for my pets. He sent daily pictures, and asked appropriate questions. When my cat showed some behavioral issues due to shyness he asked questions and took the initiative to consult with the vet and find ways to help the poor guy. I would recommend him, and definitely rebook with him if/when needed.”
About: Since I could remember we always had animals part of are family from dogs all the way too horses. So I’ve come to love and care for all type of Animals from small to large, young to old. At this moment I’ve taken some time away from work and focus on myself.So every animal in my care will have one hundred percent of my attention. Having a lot of time on my hands now allow me to go on long walks or adventure to close by dog parks to allow your dog to make some new friends
“Ashley stepped in for a last minute booking and was incredibly easy to work with. We had another Rover fall through last minute, but Ashley was available to help and saved our anniversary. She sent lots of pics, communicated well and took great care of our home and our dogs. 10/10, 5 stars- thank you so much!”
“Alisha was amazing. She took incredible care of our senior golden retriever and our cat. We received lots of photos every day and we came home to two happy and well taken care of babies.”
“There is no praise I can give Shelby that comes close to encapsulating our experience of having her watch our young American pitbull terrier— she was truly extraordinary, and I felt confident the entire time that our goofy baby was in excellent hands. She is professional, thorough, kind, and meticulous. Our neighbors saw how much she played with Barkleby in the yard and requested her info for their next trip because they were so impressed with her diligence in making sure he got enough exercise, and how much time she spent caring for him! For as long as Shelby is offering pet-sitting services, she will be the first person we call. Thank you so much! 🥰”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for about six years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, from energetic young animals to older pets that need a little extra attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible and I am generally available at most times. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last minute bookings whenever needed. I focus on clear communication, consistent routines, and attentive care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident, informed, and reassured while they are away.
“Katherine did a great job taking care of our dog and the house. We really appreciated her updates, communication, and cleanliness. We would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future!”
“Amanda is amazing with my two dogs. One of them has separation anxiety and he was calm and playful the entire time we were gone. Amanda sent us regular updates. We plan to book with her again.”
“I can't say enough about Samantha's great service to our 2 cats. I was leaving Moon for longest stretch ever and Samatha was so patient and understanding of my constant text messages both before and during the 4 days she cat-sat. Hedda is often shy and hides from cat sitters, but she was ready to greet Samantha each time she came. Samantha was so conscientious with our cats. She stayed much longer than expected to play with Moon, made good decisions when she couldn't reach me one time, and managed to keep him from getting outside (not easy!). I was impressed that she identified Moon's depression right away; and it helped me prepare for our homecoming. I look forward to using Samantha again.”
“Ehryn is truly exceptional! She played with Charlee, got to know her, cared for her. Ehryn also cared for our yard as we had arranged and left detailed written messages about her activities. Clearly a capable and loving companion for our pooch.”
“Wren took excellent care of my dogs and cats while we were gone for the week. They were well loved, and our house was taken good care of too. I'd definitely recommend her.”
“Alexis was absolutely amazing. She house sat for us and took care of our dog (with special behavioral needs) and our cat for 10 days. The pets were so happy when we returned, it was as if we had never left. We could tell they were well cared for. She was tidy and well communicative. It was also incredibly helpful that she did a meet and greet before with our pup just to ensure things ran smoothly before we departed for our trip. We felt very secure while away and will definitely be contacting her in the future! She is the absolute sweetest.”
“Annetta was great with Kev! She walked him, played with him and gave lots of cuddles from the pics she shared. She even bought him a toy. 🥹 our home was clean and well taken care of too. Thank you, Annetta for your time and communication about our baby boy.”
“Autumn was a thoughtful, attentive, and caring cat+house sitter for my wife and I while we were traveling. One of our cats doesn’t normally get along with anyone and seemed more comfortable around Autumn than any of our other cat sitters! We are usually very stressed about our cats when we travel but having Autumn around made my wife and I feel like our cats were in great hands. Thank you Autumn!”
“Emalie did a great job! She was very friendly, communicative and sent pictures with updates. She gave Kodiak so much love and attention & made our trip very stress free. I would definitely book with her again 😊”
“We love Todd! We’ve had Todd stay in our home and take care of our pup twice now and he goes above and beyond every time. He is communicative, attentive, and spoils our dog! She loves having slumber parties with him. We highly recommend Todd to care for your fur babies.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Reliance
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,035 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Reliance. 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 Reliance 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 Reliance 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 Reliance 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
