“Leland is very nice. He was attentive to my girls 🐶🐶. Very punctual. Responded to messages quickly. He sent me photos of the girls while we were away and wrote about them too. I really appreciated that. I came home to a clean house and happy dogs. I will hire Leland again.”
“Taylor is amazing! She gave us lots of updates and included many photos of our fur babies while we were away. She was very respectful of our home and took care of it well. She even cleaned the sheets before she left which was great considering we were getting home after midnight and were very tired. The fur children loved her and we are so happy that they were taken care of so well while we were gone!”
“Samantha was so kind and took great care of our dogs! We even have a senior dog that requires alot right now and she took great care of her ! Loved her daily pictures and updates ! She was very trustworthy !”
About: My attention to detail and helping ensure pet parents have a relaxing time on vacay by proving top-tier care sets me apart from other sitters. I like to send pictures I’ve taken throughout the day to pet parents and let them know what we did for the day. My 3+ years of experience working at a doggy daycare has helped me understand our furry friends. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages - puppies to seniors, given meds, and took care of a dog with paralyzed back legs. Love providing care for our furry friends! I’m currently working part time in the evenings typically on the weekends. Other than that, I’m free during the day/night. I typically work 4/5 hours in the evening. I’m off by 9 pm at the latest. For previous client care, I’ve either stayed overnight at their house or made several trips during the day and evening. If I stay overnight, I wake up let them outside to go potty and then feed breakfast (if they get it). Let them out again after breakfast. If I didn’t stay over night, then I would arrive in the morning and do the same process as if I stayed overnight. I will hang out with them and let them go outside to potty several times throughout the day. I will also try and play fetch if they like that. For dinner, it’s the same process as breakfast. I’ve also taken some dogs on walks to get their exercise in. Anything to keep our furry friends needs met!
“Maddie was great with my dog. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her after our first meet up. It is very clear how much she loves animals. She took great care of Stanley and all of my additional requests while she was at my house. I am so grateful for her, and would trust her with any pets!”
About: I am an animal lover through and through! As most, i’ve grown up caring for dogs and cats. I just can’t get enough animals in my life- I love all pets! From dogs and cats to reptiles and fish, I can care for any pet needed. I have experience with specialty pets such as rabbits, geckos, lizards, guinea pigs… if you own it i’ve probably cared for it! I have experience volunteering at the humane society, and my current volunteer efforts are at Arkansas Pet Rabbit Network.I truly love getting to know your furry (or scaly😉) friend of any kind. I have a love for older furry friends and experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I am a part time worker during the week, with much free time to dedicate to your babies! I can drop in during the week, or offer full time care fridays-mondays. I can do whatever you need for your pets in the home. When i’m with an animal, they’re my #1 priority! Even if your baby has oddly specific needs- send em my way!
“Makenna left the dogs happy and well taken care of! I would have loved more updates but that isn’t as big of a deal as making sure my babies are happy and they are! Would book again!”
“I really appreciate the time and care. Emily took with taking care of my babies. Being able to watch them in my home meant so much to me with me traveling it keeps the dogs feeling comfortable and I really appreciated that from her. I can tell that the dogs really enjoyed her and the time they were able to spend they were just as happy when I left as when I got home. I think her so much will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Renee was an amazing find! So helpful and flexible with my last minute travel plans. Was amazing with my special doggies, made them comfortable enough in her home for them to settle right in (which is not typical 1st day behavior for them). Thanks so much! 🤗💝🎉🐶🦮”
“Allison did a great job taking care of my two Newfoundlands. Communication was excellent throughout my trip, and when I came home, they were very happy to see me but also seemed completely relaxed and well cared for, almost like they hadn’t missed me at all. That says a lot about the care she provided. Overall, I’m very happy with the job she did taking care of my girls.”
“Jayce was a wonderful dog sitter. She was so communicative and responsive. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with her. I highly recommend Jayce if you are looking for someone to watch your pups :)”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Growing up with a dog by my side taught me how to understand, care for, and connect with them in a way that feels completely natural. Being around dogs isn't just something I do—it's something I've known my whole life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, learning their unique personalities, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Every dog deserves care that feels like home, and that's exactly what I strive to provide. I currently work Monday-Friday (8am-5pm). I can take care of pets after 5pm and on the weekends. We can arrange timing if needed. Thank you! I have a very spacious loft downtown I can have them in. Also have space for kennels if needed. Lots of parks near by and sidewalks to walk them. I’m also willing to take care of them at the clients residents as well. Whatever is needed for the job at hand!
About: Having worked with animal shelters and owning three pets myself, I understand that every animal is unique. I am highly adaptable and ready to provide whatever specialized care your pet requires, from administering required medications to strictly following behavioral rules and safety precautions. My schedule is very flexible and open. I am free most of the week. Contact me to iron out details and we can figure something out. How i care for a pet varies on the home. Everyones home is different and everyones animal is too. So making sure im heeding all consideration is greatly important.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Since high school, I’ve walked neighborhood dogs, pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, and fostered kittens to prepare them for their forever homes. I know every pet has unique needs, and I take pride in providing patient, reliable, and loving care. As a medical student, you can count on me to be attentive, communicative, and trustworthy while your pets are in my care. As a fourth-year medical student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I keep my availability updated and communicate promptly, so you can count on reliable care and regular updates while you’re away. I’m a fourth-year medical student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I have experience administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve dog sat for multiple families over the last several years for all kinds of dogs. I love to play with the dogs and will make sure they’re well taken care of while you’re away. I'm currently on school break so very flexible schedule! I can do multiple drop ins throughout the day, check my current availability for more info. I only do drop-in visits at the moment and will be very respectful of you and your cats space. I will cuddle or play with your cats if they are social!
“What can I say? Anastasiia won my cat, Julie's heart over. Julie does not like people, traveling or being alone so you can imagine the predicament. During our first meeting, Anastasiia walked in and Julie investigated, and let her be petted, immediately. I knew at that point. During my trip, Anastasiia sent updates and pictures of Julie playing and basking outside. I didn't have to worry about what was happening at home. If you are looking for a pet whisperer, Anastasiia is your sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 346 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roland. 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 Roland 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 Roland 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 Roland 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Roland. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
