“Aunt Tania is our kitty’s favorite—we always know our baby is in great hands. She goes above and beyond as both a cat and house sitter, sending daily photos, watering plants, and leaving our home spotless. She even adds the sweetest welcome-home notes. We highly recommend her!”
“Veronica is aways wonderful. She is very respectful, kind, and takes great care of our dog. The peace of mind she gives to us when she is with our princes Kaylee is priceless.”
About: I was a dog walker and pet sitter in college. Since then I’ve mostly pet sat for friends. Recently started working from home and am available for more regular sitting and walking. I have a cat and an elderly/special needs dog myself and have experience caring for all kinds. I well versed in medicating, and other special needs. I work from home with very flexible hours so I am fairly available during the week for drop ins, walks and boarding. I have some weekend availability also for overnights. As a pet owner myself I know how much we care for our animals and I understand the trust it takes putting their care in another’s hands. I take that responsibility, as well as their safety, wellbeing and comfort seriously. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide them with the utmost care and respect.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I recently had to say goodbye to my 18-year old dog. My nickname is Snow White since animals are always drawn to me. I am looking for opportunities to house/pet sit October-January in Healdsburg, Windsor, and Santa Rosa. I work full-time in Healdsburg, 9-5, and am available weekdays, evenings, and weekends, October-January. I am well-versed in administering medication to dogs and cats. I love dogs and cats and have a lot of experience in caring for animals of all ages. Happy to take dogs on walks and love to send photos of your fur babies while staying with them.
“Excellent in every way! Great communication, regular photos and updates, on time and organized, and left the house as clean as it was when we left. Solved years worth of anxiety and pet sitting conundrums for us!”
“Elika did an incredible job watching my two large dogs (who can be a real handful, especially with strangers). She clearly is comfortable with animals, and made me feel at ease.”
“Andrea stayed with my three high energy dogs for three days and they had a great time with her! I found her to be thoughtful, responsible and resourceful when I messed up and forgot to give her the garage door code. I look forward to leaving them with her again. Thanks, Andrea, for giving me peace of mind so I can enjoy some freedom again!”
About: Hello animal lovers - I have benefitted from Rover for dog sitting and realize it's something I'd love to do myself. My husband (a social worker) and I are both dog lovers and have a dog (a Frenchie) as well. I work from home (I run a marketing agency I started 12 year ago) and alas much of typical day I'm on zoom, and treasure the breaks for walking and loving on the dogs. While new to Rover, if been helping out friends and neighbors with dog care and logistics and sharing the love for years I'm reliable, work from home, and would love to know how you could use some help. Currently offering to sit or board one dog at a time or arrange prescheduled walks. I'll treat them like family. Comfortable with dogs of many sizes and personalities, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! Our dog Fiona, a frenchie, plays well with others and has some unique needs including no rough play + daily medicine needs so we're familiar with special rules and medical needs. We do a morning walk, a mid day walk, an "after work" walk and a before bed walk. I work from home so am genrrally around all day. While flexible, I imagine at least initially the primary offering will be to host and care for your dog at our place but am open to house sitting if there's a great fit, I work from home. I can host your dog weekdays and weekends but know on weekends we may have friends (and sometimes friends with dogs) stop by. We have a fenced in deck otherwise for excercise we take leashed walks. I currently am only offering care in my own home and plan to only host one additional dog overnight at a time. Ask me any questions you'd like.
About: Dogs & cats have been in my life since I was born! Growing up, I’ve taken care of so many dogs, cats, and even geckos. These lovely pets including my own, my neighbors, & my friends! I’m currently working Sunday and Monday mornings and in school part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays while focused on saving up money to further pay for my college education, so I have plenty of time available around those days to take care of your lovely pets! ♥️ My Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are completely free and I’ll be happy to keep your furry friend company, on a walk, or check in on them while you are away. :) I have four (some very shy) cats and a dog at home, so while I am unable to bring cats into my own home, I will be able to stay full-time in your home with your fur babies and provide them with all the care they need, while they’re comfortably in their home-environment.
“Erik was awesome. He took care of my energetic dog Cashew in my apartment for 2.5 weeks, and it went super well. He sent photos and videos every couple days, with updates to let me know how it was going. Cashew seemed to love him. I would 100% recommend Erik!”
About: Hi I’m Kaitlin! I graduated from SSU as a biology major and I have my exotic animal and wildlife rehab certificates. I currently work at Township Animal Hospital as a Vet Assistant and have experience with animal handling and giving medications. I have been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life and currently have a German shepherd and 3 cats that are my babies. I would love to take care of your animals any way that I can and give them all the love that they need. I can pet sit, walk your dog, or just visit your pets for a little play date whenever you need me. Let me know if you are interested in having me take care of your wonderful pets and I’ll get back to you right away! I’m working full time at the moment, however I always make time to visit your pets and take them on walks. It is a stress reliever for me so I can easily fit them into my schedule. I have 3 cats and a German shepherd in my house. I always make sure they have food and plenty of water, especially in the summer time with hot weather. I will treat your pets exactly how I would treat my own, with love and kindness and plenty of attention.
“First time to use Rover for in home dog sitting. Rissa stayed with our finicky dog for 10 days and quickly won his heart. Rissa was flexible and quickly solved the unexpected issues. Her dog care background benefitted our dog and she added to his toy collection with toys he greatly appreciated. Rissa also took wonderful care of our house and garden in the midst of a heatwave. I fully appreciate and recommend Rissa and Rover.com.”
About: Animal caretaker at horse ranches, farms, and house pets with a lifetime of experience. Horse mom and dog mom to a very sweet 9 yr old Rottie-Shepard named Leif. Self-employed, so I spend all my time with my own pup. He loves playing with other dogs, so we want to host some furry friends! We live on 1/2 acre with a deck for napping on and a nice yard full of sticks and tennis balls. Several big dog beds. Right next to walking trail. Potty breaks can be on leash, on tie out, or off leash with supervision depending on owner preference. Have medium and XL crates available for use, but bring what makes your dog comfortable. All good dogs with parent permission that are allowed car rides may get dog park trips, easy hikes, or beach days depending on our schedule and the weather. Puppies and senior dogs welcome. I understand complex feeding schedules and medication and am happy to stick to your routine. Photo and video updates daily. Your dog will be tired and happy when you get home! I’m a self-employed, part-time remote work from home weekday mornings and local gigging musician on weekends, gone for around to 3-4 hours. Wifi camera set up with access on my phone, with microphone and speaker. My yard is mostly fenced, except for the front of the driveway. I live on the back part of 1/2 acre that is fenced. Dogs will be supervised for potty breaks, on leash or off depending on owner preference and behavior. Can also supervise on tie out for potty-shy dogs. Play on the yard and between dogs is supervised with walks on bike trail and adventures to nearby parks when allowed.

“Laura took wonderful care of our pups and house while we were away for 1.5 weeks. She was very communicative (but not overboard) and went above and beyond with keeping our house in good shape. We would book her again!”
About: I love animals and can feel their character :) so will treat and care for them based on their personalities. What they need is warmth and love from us, and responsible, attentive supervision :) I grew up with a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and birds, in my home, and also continued to own and care for pets as an adult. I have extensive experience caring for special-needs dogs and pets that are navigating illness. My own dogs had health issues which required a significant amount of special attention and care, which taught me a great deal about how to provide for them. I have a flexible schedule and work from home. I am always happy to take a break and take your dog for a walk or come and check on it. The fresh air and exercise is good for both of us! I care for pets with love because they have the right to be happy too :) and Iwill follow your house rules, play safe and have fun with them. I am a very responsible, conscientious person, and hold the well-being of your animals as my highest priority. I will follow your guidance and rules with diligence.
“Zdenka took great care of my babies for a whole week! This was my first time using this service and having a stranger look after my two dogs. At first I was very worried since my dogs had never been away from me with a stranger. Zdenka was AMAZING though! She sent me photos, videos, updates everyday. Upon my arrival my babies were happy and my house was exactly the same way I left her with. I highly recommend her and I am so happy I found someone trustworthy to take care of my babies for any future trips. Will be using her services again!”
“Michelle is responsive, kind, showed up for everything on time and was flexible when I needed to rearrange. She took great care of Ziggy. I could tell how happy he was when I returned home. Everything was in order at the house and I will definitely use her again and highly recommend anyone else who wants a great conscientious Dog Sitter?.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Rolands is $62 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $54 and $70 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 644 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rolands. 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 Rolands 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 Rolands 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 Rolands 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
