“Tyler was friendly and communicative. He was interested in our dogs habits and wanted to know her full routine so he could keep her comfortable while we were traveling. Tyler sent updates with pictures during his stay. We came home to a tidy house and a happy dog.”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Stephanie! From the very first meeting, she made us all feel so comfortable. She is truly a dog person who goes above and beyond for every pup in her care. We have two dogs with very different needs: one is reactive, and the other has ongoing medical requirements. Finding someone we trust with both of them felt daunting but Stephanie came in with calmness, confidence, and knowledge, knowing exactly how to approach our reactive dog and handling our other pup's medical needs with skill and care. Stephanie was wonderful at keeping me in the loop and made it obvious that our dogs' comfort and wellbeing were her top priority. We feel so incredibly lucky to have found her and will asolutely be booking with her again. If you have dogs with special needs, look no further!”
“We usually leave our dog and cat with friends or family but having just moved to the area we needed to find an alternative arrangement. We were a little apprehensive about using Rover for the first time but after meeting Tracey, her warm demeanor instantly put us (and the pets) at ease. During the stay, Tracey maintained consistent communication, providing regular updates and even sending cute pics and videos of the pets enjoying their time. It was so reassuring to know they were in such capable hands and it really helped us to relax and enjoy our time away not worrying about the fur kids! In addition to her exceptional care for the pets, Tracey also took great care of our home and left everything neat and tidy. Overall, we cannot recommend her highly enough and we are so lucky to have found such a reliable and qualified carer on Rover. We will definitely be reaching out to her again to look after our pets.”
“Over and above. She took great care of pets and they love her. Great communication and fun pics of animals. Already booked her for my next trip. It is so nice to be able to relax and know animals are well taken care of.”
“Joy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! This was our first time having a dog sitter come to our home, and Joy made the experience so comfortable and stress-free. I could tell right away that Skye was treated with so much care and love. Joy kept us updated, took great care of her during walks, and was very attentive and thoughtful. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🥰🐾”
“Vanessa is a great find. She truly cares about what she does. She is responsible , thoughtful and communicative . Our kitties , hens and home were well cared for. Thank you!!!”
“Maya was very responsive and reliable during the initial search process and the house sitting time. She stayed with Doug for 2 nights/3 days. She sent us a picture update during her time with Doug, and communicated at various points to check in. We will be using Maya’s services again soon!”
“Tiana was really wonderful. This was the first time we had booked with her for a house sitting and pet sitting. She was professional, kind, very communicative and really took great care of our babies. She sent photos, videos and updates regularly in just 24 hours. She proactively brought in our mail. Our home and our 3 pets were very well cared for. We most certainly will book with her again and encourage you to do the same!”
“Hannah took wonderful care of our two pups and our home for a two week vacation. Lots of photos and updates, and how nice to come home to a neat house. Thank you!”
“Courtney was great with Monty. He has a lot of anxiety quirks but I could tell Courtney gave him a lot of attention while I was gone. I came home to a happy relaxed doggie!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and absolutely love doing so. Everything from overnights in your home to drop ins for walks and potty breaks, your best friend is in good hands My schedule is very flexible and I am available to take care of your best friend at very short notice. I pride myself on being dependable and caring. I appreciate knowing all of the details about your best friend. What is their temperament, do they like long walks or snuggles? Is your cat playful or shy? Every detail helps me take the absolute best care of your best friend.
“Lucia stayed with Coco in our home for eight days while we were away, and I couldn't have asked for a better caregiver. Coco can be shy and anxious with new people, but Lucia was incredibly patient and allowed her to warm up at her own pace. She followed Coco's routine carefully, kept us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. When we returned home, Coco was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they had formed a special bond, and seeing how comfortable and affectionate Coco was with Lucia meant so much to us. Our home was also just as we had left it. What stands out most about Lucia is how thoughtful and attentive she is. She pays close attention to the little details, genuinely cares about your pet's comfort and well-being, and treats them as if they were her own. It's obvious that caring for animals is more than just a job to her. If you're looking for someone who is compassionate, reliable, communicative, patient, and completely trustworthy, I can't recommend Lucia highly enough. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and look forward to having her care for Coco again.”
About: Since I was a kid, I’ve always had multiple dogs in my house at a time. Taking care of and walking dogs has always been a staple to my everyday routine and overall life. In the past 4 years my family and I have begun to foster dogs of all different ages, breeds, and personalities. They came in and out of our house often and each dog had different needs you had to accommodate for. The most difficult were puppies, who seemed to be either very shy or very energetic. While the dogs stayed at our house I would take on the task of feeding and walking them and overtime I got better and better. I love to work with dogs and I’m so excited to meet and help more dogs in new areas! I’m currently a full-time student at San Jose State University but I will always make time for you dogs! My best time for walking dogs is Tuesday/Thursday afternoons and anytime Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. While for home visits my best times are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I unfortunately cannot care for dogs in my own home but at a client’s home I will make sure to respect any rules and focus on the dog’s needs above any other things. For myself, taking care of dogs at home has always been making sure they’re well fed, well walked, and have everything they need to have a good time.
“Ana was great with Lucie! Lucie injured her leg before we left, and Ana made sure she stayed on her meds and rested while keeping me updated! She left our place very clean as well👍🏻.”
“This was our first weekend having her watch our cat, and we happened to be camping with little to no service, so we really appreciated that she was able to follow all of our instructions without being able to reach us. She still sent daily updates that we got whenever our spotty service came through. Our cat is curious and sweet but pretty cautious with new people, and she managed to win him over in just two days. We came home to a happy cat and a clean apartment, and she even waited until we had service and confirmed we were on our way home before leaving. Would definitely have her watch him again!”
“Sara was absolutely wonderful! 💖 It was her first time watching Nugget and Ramsey, and they instantly loved her. She has such a calm, gentle energy and handled them so beautifully. I felt completely at ease the whole day knowing they were in good hands. She truly treats your pets like her own caring, patient, and so loving. I’m so happy we found her and can’t wait to have her back! ❤️🐾❤️”

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! She has taken care of our cat and rabbit, and she was absolutely wonderful them. She has such a natural ability to connect with animals, and it was obvious how comfortable, happy, and loved they felt with her. She is incredibly caring, attentive, reliable, and truly someone we trust completely with both our pets and our home. While house sitting, she took amazing care of everything and left the house exceptionally clean and tidy. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in such good hands. She genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and that really shows. We will absolutely book her again and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!
Tyler was friendly and communicative. He was interested in our dogs habits and wanted to know her full routine so he could keep her comfortable while we were traveling. Tyler sent updates with pictures during his stay. We came home to a tidy house and a happy dog.
Stephanie is awesome! She met with me and my four fur babies (3 dogs/1 cat) twice before our trip and we all loved her from the get-go! My daughter‘s dog is a sweetheart, but she usually takes a while to warm up to strangers but not Stephanie, she warmed right up to her which was a great sign and indicator that I picked the right person for our housesitting job. Stephanie is so easy to work with and you can tell she truly loves animals. She gave me peace of mind so much that I didn’t even worry during my trip. I would definitely hire her again!
Tiana was great! She was very patient with my dog who was a bit nervous. She knew exactly how to handle it and by the end they were great! She kept me informed about how she was doing and also did dishes and laundry. I’ll definitely reach out to her for future needs. Thanks, Tiana!
Ashley was so great with our girls! Kind, attentive and very communicative with us while we were gone for a week and she stayed with them. We got frequent updates and photos of them, which we greatly appreciated. She is warm and friendly and very clearly cares about these pups. Look forward to booking her again!
Lily was wonderful! She kept us updated every day with texts and photos, was communicative and thoughtful with questions, and clearly won over both dogs - especially Gertie, who quickly decided that respectful boundaries were merely a suggestion. We came home to a clean house and two very happy dogs. We’d absolutely book Lily again and highly recommend her!
Ana did it again! We count on her to care for our high-energy, sometimes anxious and always loving elder Pom with attention to detail. Our house looked great when we returned home, too. Looking forward to her longer stay next month, when our Pom will be joined by her big and bouncing Labrador baby brother from another mother. Thanks Ana!!
This is our second booking. One of our cats fell ill right before we left on vacation and we couldn't have been in better hands. Alison documented our cat's daily progress and provided extra TLC. Definitely helped put our minds at ease knowing our fur babies were well taken care of.

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 Robertsville 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 Robertsville 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 Robertsville 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.
