“Violet was the best ever. She loved on my puppy and played with her. She sent lots of pics and videos so I could see GraceLynn. Violet did her laundry and dishes in the dishwasher. I wasn't expecting her to tidy up when she left but it was a blessing coming home to a clean house. My dog drags more stuff out than Violet! I would hire her again 10xs over. Thank you Violet!”
“Robyn was wonderful. She was so kind and caring and took great care of our sweet Gidget. It happened to snow when we were gone and she brought in my plants, collected my packages that arrived, and was a great communicator. We really appreciated all of the photos and videos. She sent us when we were away from our sweet little Gidget We will definitely use Robyn again without any reservation what so ever! Robyn is a smart choice when selecting a pet/house sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds, Pit Bulls, Bichon Frisés, and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I work 8AM to 4PM Monday through Thursday, but am free to watch your babies in the evening and Friday through Sunday. I provide drop-in visits and house-sitting. I have a fenced-in yard, two crates and four dogs all ready to be their new best friend! I do prefer to watch them in your home, not mine as I have one dog that isn’t the most friendly.
“Darian was absolutely amazing with our puppies! She took good care of them, was super responsive and even went above and beyond to pick up one of them from the vet while recovering from a sickness. I already have her booked for more time with her and so very thankful to have her!”
“Thank you so much, Kayla! You were there to help us get our precious dog from the vet to the hospital while dealing with my chemo brain. You were there to listen and concerned for our dog. Wish you only the best in life. God bless you.”
About: While I’m new to pet sitting professionally, caring for animals has always been something I’ve genuinely enjoyed.I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to follow care instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident while they’re away, and I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s needs. Schedule I’m currently a college student and attend classes during the mornings. Because I don’t have another job, I have a flexible schedule and am available most afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet’s care. How I Care for Pets As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal deserves patience, attention, and personalized care. I currently care for dogs, cats, and a rabbit, so I’m familiar with the different needs and routines each species requires. When caring for clients’ pets, I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully because I know every pet has unique preferences and needs. I treat every animal with the same care and respect I give my own, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve been caretaking for all types of animals for over 15 years. From training puppies to pampering seniors & everything between, I’ve been the go-to for neighbors, friends & family when it comes to their pet care needs. As a farmer, I have a flexible schedule to provide for your needs & have been a farm-sitter for many satisfied folks! I work part-time (have those days blocked off my pet care calendar), so I will be able to give 100% of my time to your pet(s). I am available during the day to walk your pet(s), give them a potty break, play with them, feed them, show them attention & so on. I am also available for doggie daycare in my home where I can provide utmost safety & playtime. My care regimen is flexible & can be catered to individuals’ needs. I have a large yard & many spare 15-20ft leashes to keep your pet safe while providing quality playtime. I also have a dog to help keep your fur baby company while in my care! Your dog can hang out with us in my home, or upon your request I can crate your fur baby & take them out for as many walks/potty/play breaks as you’d like.
About: I know what it takes to provide special care for your fur babies while there family is away. I have had dogs and cats my entire childhood and adult life. I have always treated my pets as part of the families. I have nursed them back if they have had ever gotten sick and I’ve have cared for them into their senior years. I am a number one go to for friends and families dog sitter. I am able to administer medication and extra snuggles if needed. I will make any pet feel calm and loved until there family arrives back. I have reliable transportation and my schedule is very flexible to accommodate pet sitting needs. I have a few flexible part time jobs and I will be available often.

“Madeline was amazing! She updated us as needed and sent pictures of our puppy living her best life. She went above and beyond and we will call her again next time. You can feel confident in choosing her to care for your dog.”
“We always feel like our babies are in good hands when we leave them with Rhonda! And Rhonda is so good to work with. We always come back to a clean house and happy dogs. It's no wonder that she's booked up months in advance!”
“Ashley is an impressive young lady; surely over qualified to be Presley's dog whisperer. It was wonderful to leave Presley in good hands and enjoy the night out. It seemed to be the calmest Presley has ever been when being left behind - we will certainly look forward to having Ashley back in our home.”
“First time leaving my dog alone but Leilani made me not worry about it and focus on my work instead. She sends pictures and feedback about the pet(s) and cares for them as her own, you can tell.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 392 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Riddleton. 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 Riddleton 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 Riddleton 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 Riddleton 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.
