“Gianna was AMAZING with Stella - and managed her super well, despite Stella not being super easy at first! She was really communicative and Stella ended up having a great time with her!”
“Dorothy is an awesome communicator and took amazing care of our puppy and home. She sent daily texts with updates and pics which reasssured us that our puppy was happy and well taken care of. We would be lucky to have Dorothy help us again in the future!”
“Kelly was a fantastic sitter for my fur baby Onyx! She was in regular communication, sent lots of pics and kept me updated as necessary. Onyx was well taken care of and Kelly was loving, patient and kind with her. She worked with me on crazy changes to my flight schedule and even offered to stay late which I really appreciated. She left my house clean and fresh and was a pleasure to work with. She is reliable and a great communicator. She even checked on Onyx the day after my return. I’d definitely have Kelly again and am already trying to book her for a future date. Thank you Kelly for taking such great care of Onyx, for being so loving with her and for being willing to work with me on all levels!”
“We were hesitant to trust anyone but family or friends with our beloved dog, Bella, but Channing completely won us over! Channing stayed in our home for several nights to take care of Bella. With daily pup dates and photos, we knew that Bella was happy and well taken care of. Also, our house was cleaner than when we left! It's clear that Channing genuinely cares for animals and treats them like her own. Thank you, Channing, for providing such wonderful care for our furry family member! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.”
“Good communication skills and sent photos of my dog. Took him for walks, which I know he greatly appreciated! I really appreciated that Giselle was able to accommodate my request on short notice.”
“Fabulous, thank you Aileen! I have the double whammy of a very mischievous dog and a cat with medical issues, and Aileen was totally unfazed. She has a questionnaire for people to fill out beforehand so she can gather as much info as possible, which helped me breathe easy during my 10-day trip! She kept in regular contact with updates and photos, and was very conscientious about making sure the house was in the same condition (or better) as when I left it. Thank you, Aileen!”
“Eliana is fantastic. We had a change in plans at the last minute and she was very flexible. She kept us updated and sent Photos throughout the time she was taking care of our dog. Our dog is a bit quirky to say the least, and she took care of him very well… And to top it off, our house was cleaner than when we left. I highly recommend Eliana!”
“Xaniah took wonderful care of our two dogs, Ella and Mia, while we were away on vacation. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We especially appreciated all of the photo updates throughout our trip—they made it so much easier to relax knowing our girls were happy and doing well. Thank you for taking such great care of them! We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again and highly recommend Xaniah to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
About: I've been around animals since I was a baby. I have a fondness for the senior pets, they are just the sweetest! I love having playtime and cuddle time and a good walk if you're pet enjoys walks. (My grand cat walks on a leash, so we go on walks all the time). It's a scary time when pet parents are away for both pet and parent and I'll be there to make all of you at ease! I have a very flexible part-time job, so that frees me up to spend as much time as needed with your fur baby most weekdays and weekends, even holidays! I have three indoor feral rescue kitties. It took time and trust on all sides, but all three are now the sweetest cats ever! Every fur baby that has been brought into my house over the years, was either a feral I rescued off the street or adopted from a shelter. Mine are indoor only, except for when I sit on the porch. They get to come outside, but they all stay on the porch and come inside when I do.So lots of toys and enrichment is important for them. They all love to play fetch and chase the laser! Whatever your pet requires or whatever their routine is, I'm there for it. It's all about your pet and putting your mind at ease that they are in the best possible hands!
About: I have taken care of many dogs, including my own. I've had 2 huskies in the past and now have a black lab. I love spending time with animals. I make sure that dogs get all the loving that they need. I’m available pretty much any time of the day because I work from home. I will walk your dog or care for your dog at home. If you need me to I can keep you updated on how things are going to insure that you are completely happy. I will even send you endless pictures if you'd like! I currently work from home and am able to stay overnight whenever needed and can check up on your dog anytime of the day. I'm even happy to sit with them while I take a meeting! My dog is an indoor and outdoor dog. He enjoys playing in the yard and going for walks. I usually sit on the patio with him while I work if the weather is nice. At night he goes into a crate. I will make sure that your pet gets the attention that it needs.
“Ashlyn did a great job of house sitting and dog sitting for us. She took Esmé to our favorite dog park on both days! I felt comfortable having Ashlyn come take care of our dog and will be glad to hire her again.”
“Julianna was excellent at our home! She had to give our Calli some medicines, which is a challenge for me and I appreciate that Julianna had no problem in administering medications. I highly recommend her and plan on using her in the near future again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. I have been around all sorts of personalities and continue to do so with our furry friends. I have spent time volunteering at the SPCA in Fresno (my home town) and have always found animals interesting and fun. I they are always a delight to be around and getting to know them is always a treat. If pet sitting at a clients house, I would start my morning off early at around 4am making sure that your fur baby is ready for the day. By the time 7am rolls around I will getting myself ready for work and go to my regular day job. By the time I get to your house I will continue to care and be a wonderful friend to all your pets. For walking jobs it will most likely take place on my days off or for days when I get out early between 12:00pm and 3:30pm. You can set the length and route for how long walks need to be, I am more than able to keep up with their needs. My Full Time job comes first, my schedule is from 8:45am to 6:00pm. I am always willing to work with you on how to best provide my attention for your fur baby. I work well when I have a detailed checklist of things that need to be taken care of. I don’t like to wing things. I will always provide plenty of pictures and videos daily so you know that your baby(s) and your house is in good hands. My phone is always at my side so if at any point you are feeling worried or just want to FaceTime, Skype, etc. your furry companion I am more than able to make that happen. Just know for days that I work my regular day job I ask that you remain patient and I will respond as soon as I am able.
About: I've been around animals my whole life. Growing up my mom worked in a pet store and I use to help her out after school. I have had dog in my home my whole live from little puppies to older pups. I love to nestly up on a couch and knitt with a furry friend by my side. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of free time for fun pet care. I really enjoying the flexible work schedule and getting to spend my time with animals. While in the client's home I will spend time with the family pet, playing , cuddles and proving care. If I have my primary job that day I will let the animal do their business in the morning, make sure they have food and water. I will return in the afternoon for play time and to support their need.
About: I am a Napa native and I work in downtown at a civil engineering firm. I have had animals around my whole life and will always love all pets like they are my own. I have experience house sitting for dogs, cats, lizards, and ducks/chickens. This includes walking, feeding special diets, housing needs, and administering medications. I look forward to meeting some new friends! I work Monday through Friday 8-5 with an hour lunch which allows me to do mid day check ins. I prefer house and pet sitting when taking care of animals which allows me to work around my work schedule and provide your animals with the attention that they require. Being able to take care of animals in their own home is important to me because it offers them a sense of comfort especially when someone new is around. I aim to keep up with normal house hold routines so your animals doesn’t get too stressed.
“Cathleen was absolutely wonderful with my two labs. This is the first time I have left them with an overnight sitter, and I could tell by the way my dogs greeted her, that she is loved by dogs! She was kind and caring, texted updates and pictures which I appreciated, took them for walks and even slept with them! Cathleen will be my Luna and Bear’s babysitter again! Thank you, Cathleen, for taking such good care of my babies!”
“Thank you Ronald! Ronald housesat for a long weekend for our 2 big pups & I received several photo updates and check ins. We had a tiny situation resulting in a trip to the emergency vet and Ronald was calm, communicative, helpful, and went out of his way to make sure our dog was take care of. I highly recommend his services and am so thankful that he was so attentive!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats in the past, when I lived in Australia, and in Napa, I am trusted by all of my friends and family to take care of their pets and home while they are away. I have been doing so much housesitting recently, I decided to offer my services to others again! I love animals and am always that person that can't walk past a cat or dog without saying hello and giving them a pat. I am a winemaker and notary on the side, so I have had regular background checks and am a respectful and responsible person. I live by the moto of "leave the place better than you found it" and am very cautious and mindful to leave your home in perfect condition, so you can return home with no problems and no cleaning to worry about! I work full-time and am generally at work by 7:30am and am home by 4pm. I spend a lot of time at home on the weekends to get work done and tend to walk with friends to get exercise or go to the local farmers markets. Give me a list of instructions that you would like done and I will fulfill all of your expectations! I work during the day, so I will not be able to stop by during the day in most cases (between 7:30am-4:30pm), but I will free for walks before and/or after work and anything else that needs to be done.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rocktram
Jessie was so good with our Ziggy and his friend Bently. Ziggy is very wary with new people but after a couple of days Jessie won him over and he had a great time for the remainder of our vacation. Don't hesitate to reach out to Jessie for your pet/house sitting needs!
Olivia was fantastic! She was patient with our boys and they became fast friends! We felt confident and comfortable leaving for our honeymoon with our boys in her care. She was communicative and sent pictures/updates daily. House was clean, bedding was washed and bed was made upon our return! We’ve never left our boys with anyone but family before but are so happy to have found someone not only we are comfortable with but our boys as well. Will absolutely try to book with Olivia again the next time we need someone to watch our boys! 💫
We had Maria watch our dog for a few days a couple of weeks ago for the first time and could not have been more pleased. She was communicative the entire time and sent great picks of our puppy. The house was in great shape when we returned and our dog was happy and healthy. I would highly recommend using Maria for your pet sitting.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,767 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rocktram. 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 Rocktram 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 Rocktram 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 Rocktram 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!

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.

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 .

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.
