“God/Goddess thank you for Katie & her hubby too. Quilly was so so happy in the pictures and when I came home. Incredibly trustworthy and friendly lady (neighborly too! ) to care for pup.”
“Jesse did a great job looking after our three dogs for 10 days. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip and our dogs still had their normal routine without a hitch. He was great with updates and pictures . I highly recommend Jesse and will definitely book him the next time we need a house sitter.”
“Elissa is the BEST! My poor girl was very anxious and confused when she first came over, and she handled her so well. She was patient and loving, and I appreciated that she kept me informed. An added bonus- When I got home, the house was spotless and looked like I never left! Your fur babies will be in amazing hands with Elissa!”
“Erin was so great with Banner. She made sure to get him out for a walk or an adventure each day - something no other sitter has done. My boy is very high energy so he needs that stimulation she was able to provide! She updated me with pictures and texts each day which made me feel confident that Banner was in good hands. Thank you Erin for a great first stay with Banner!”
“Once again Carol helped us out with Cody and we couldn’t be happier! She is even sharing a few resources to help Cody with her separation anxiety. Carol goes above and beyond!”
“Midori is amazing! She really cares for animals in a sincere way. We were traveling for a week and she gave us daily updates with pictures, and even brought extra special treats from home. We came home and the animals were all well adjusted and happy, even our cat who is very anxious. I will most definitely be using Midori again!”
“Stacey was wonderful! She was so easy to communicate with ahead of watching our dog and was also super self sufficient around our house. There was a bad storm when she was scheduled to watch our dog and we live in a pretty remote area and she had zero complaints. She was fantastic all around!”
“Hunter was really accommodating when we got sick while trying to schedule our meet & greet for a last minute trip. She did great with the dogs & allowed us a stress free weekend away!”
“Theresa is an outstanding dog sitter! I was able to relax on my vacation knowing that my special girl was in great hands. My dog tested positive for Giardia while I was away. Theresa picked up my dog’s meds, administered them, and carefully watched her. By the time I arrived home, my dog was all better! You won’t find a better sitter!”
“Pros: Professional , flexible & timely My dog seemed to really enjoy cuddling with him. No cons: I’ll ask more next time for feedback how she was, what activities they did (play or walk?) etc.”
“Tashani was literally the best -- she was super communicative and sent through daily updates about Libby & Cinder! We got back from a week-long trip to a clean house, happy animals, and a flourishing garden. We'll definitely work with Tashani for future trips!!”

About: I’ve spent the last 9 months caring for pets and homes while traveling around the country, completing extended house and pet sits through other platforms. I am now settling locally in Connecticut and looking to build a regular base of nearby pet-care clients.

I’m available in the evenings and on weekends and can provide dependable overnight care, companionship, walks, feeding, and plenty of attention when I’m home.

“Julie was amazingly flexible, as our schedule was unknown, and was there when we needed her. More importantly, she was good with Ricky, took him out for walks as well as for his sanitary needs, and kept us regularly informed, with pictures. If we are in the area again we will seek her to assist us, and Ricky, again.”

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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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 Riverton 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.
