“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.”
“Ashley and her son took wonderful care of our Golden retriever Milo and Kitty Kerplunk. They kept them active with walks and play time and plenty of cuddles. We loved the picture updates so we could relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were well taken care of. The house was left clean and fur babies happy. I highly recommend Ashley to watch your furry family.”
“Holly is an excellent sitter who I would absolutely recommend to anyone who needs a sitter for a quick check in or for a longer stay. She watched my dogs for a week while I was across the country and she was communicative and went the extra mile to make sure my dogs were comfortable. I’ve used her multiple times in the past and it’s always been a great experience. Holly is also very flexible for emergencies and changes in schedules. I will continue to use her in the future!”
“Short version: Ruby speaks pet! Long version: Ruby was a pet whisperer the moment she met my dog; he totally loved on her (he's not picky but he definitely has his favorites). During the meet & greet I could tell she understood how important sticking to a schedule was, which meant a lot. But going back really quick, what meant the most to me was her empathy (we both want the best for our pets), and this is what made Ruby a trusted sitter. Thank you Ruby, so very much!!”
About: Hello! I provide reliable, loving care and treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with a variety of needs, including feeding routines, exercise, and caring for both young and senior pets with patience and attention. I am available Sunday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. for animal walks and drop-in visits. I'm here to help make your day a little easier while providing your pets with the care and attention they deserve. I will come to your home to care for your pet, including playtime, feeding, and walks. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“As always, Todd was incredible. He is excellent at communicating. We received updates and pictures every day. Our cat and dog received the best care and got all of the attention, love, and fun that we had wanted for them. We will ALWAYS choose Todd to take care of our little fur babies.”
“Amazing Pet Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. She was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive from start to finish. They handled my 70-lb, happy-go-lucky pup with so much patience — even with his strong pulling on walks! I loved the updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. They followed his feeding routine perfectly and were super flexible with the late pickup time, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Cheree to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring. My dog adored her, and I’ll definitely be booking 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.”
About: I am a certified Veterinary Assistant from Pima Medical Institute. I have worked in animal care for over a year, where I have ensured the comfort, safety and support of hundreds of dogs, cats and exotic animals. I love being a part of the process of giving animals the quality of life they deserve. I enjoy the opportunity to give each unique animal the affection and help they need and that is why I am excited to get up in the morning. I would love to add your furry friend to the list of animals I am honored to get to care for. As a Vet Assistant, I can check vitals, administer medications, provide life-saving support, grooming (nail trims, bathing, brushing), basic training skills, as well. I'm currently a full-time Veterinary Assistant with my availability being most weekends, let me know in advance if you need weekday care and I may be able to adjust my schedule so I can spoil your animals. I would love to be able to care for your home as well as your animals when you are gone. Ensuring your animals are in an environment they are used to while you are away.
“Anna is an incredible sitter. Our dogs immediately took to her on the meet and greet. We knew she had to be the one we chose and couldn't be happier with the love she gave them and amazing care she took of our home. We all have gained more than a Rover contact...we have a new friend !”
“Lalenya was wonderful keeping our three dogs and home safe and sound while we were out of town. Our dogs were comfortable with her immediately during our meet and greet and I felt comfortable leaving them in her care. She provided pictures of our pups and let me know of important issues with the house. Would definitely book again!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I treat them like family and take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs. I’m patient with shy or nervous pets and love keeping them happy, comfortable, and engaged while their people are away. As a professional pet groomer, I also bring extra experience with handling pets, reading body language, and noticing changes in their health or behavior. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness always come first! 🐾❤️ Pet care naturally fits into my daily life! I care for my four furbabies every day, making sure they receive plenty of attention, enrichment, exercise, and love. I also work as a professional pet groomer, so caring for animals is both my passion and my profession. Your pets would be in caring, experienced hands! 🥰🐾 I take advantage of my fenced yard or my clients, if my client doesn’t have a fenced yard then I insure that harness and leash are safe before starting a walk, I make sure nothing remains on the floor for pets to eat that is bad, I have kennels if needed.

“Cathy was great with our dog! She gave daily updates with pictures and we came back to a happy dog and a well kept house. Super appreciative of Cathy - very responsible and communicative. Would definitely work with her again!”
“Five Stars for Daman. He was great with our puppy, Bruiser and Charlie. He stayed in contact throughout the weekend letting us know how things were going. The house was also clean and tidy when we came back from our trip.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Reliance
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,020 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 , 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.
