“Luna and I had the most precious and wonderful experience with Lindsey! We will 10/10 be utilizing her again in the future and anytime I travel. I requested a short notice dog sitter and found Lindsey to be extremely responsive and responsible. We set up a call the day before I was leaving and I was impressed immediately at her attention to detail and clarifying questions. During her stay with Luna, “Miss Lindsey” was extremely communicative and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Luna is very active and Lindsey took care to take Luna on wonderful longer walks and excursions each day. I could easily tell by the pics how comfortable and happy and safe Luna felt with Lindsey. When I returned home, my apartment looked better than when I left it! Luna and I give Lindsey the highest recommendation for your pet sitting/ walking needs. It was truly a fabulous connection and experience 🫶🏼🤍”
“Melondy was great! We booked this trip over a month ago and it unfortunately landed during the weekend of the winter storm and she was still very understanding. Our two gremlins were super happy when we returned and had a great time.”
“This was the first time Cortney stayed with Trevor. He had a poop accident in his crate and Cortney cleaned everything wonderfully and ran to my vet to get meds for him. Other than that, in general she is a great dog sitter, has watched dogs for me in the past. She is very respectful of the dogs and house where she stays. Definitely recommend!”
“Delilah was amazing with my doggie boi!!! Definitely hope to hire Delilah again next time I travel! Totally went the extra mile picking up my dog’s medication when I accidentally packed it in my luggage.”
“Havana took such great care of Milton while we were away. Her communication was excellent and she made sure he got plenty of exercise. Milt absolutely adored her. We came home to a happy pup and a tidy home. I’d highly recommend Havana to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Our pups had such a wonderful time with Kiersten! She was so communicative with us throughout the stay and we always knew our pups were in great hands! One of our pups is very difficult on walks when she sees other dogs and Kiersten handled her so well! We cannot wait to rebook with her again :)”
“It was great to have Paula stay with my 2 kitty cats! Paula was responsible, responsive and just a really nice person. Kept me informed, sent me photos every day, and left the house clean and the cats chill and happy! Highly recommend Paula!”
“It was so great to be able to rely on Dina for the best service possible for my Kaila. Kaila is a high energy pup and I was so grateful for Dina to make sure that she would be all tired out and happy to see me home! I highly recommend Dina - she's wonderful with Kaila!! I would have given this 10 stars if there was an option. thanks, Dina!”
“Melissa is an absolute angel! She took the best care of our two little girls. She was super communicative, asked great questions, and went above and beyond to ensure our girls were well taken care of and we were anxiety-free. So grateful!! Thank you, Melissa!! ❤️”
“Jeff is great. Extremely reliable and compassionate with my dogs. He took great care of them. And left my house in the same condition as it was when I left. I highly recommend him. I have had a lot of problems with Rover in Austin and Jeff is one of the few sitters I feel comfortable leaving my dogs with”
“Mo provides 5-star service — to my dog, and to me. Communicated well, sent photos frequently. I knew my dog was happy and felt safe when I got photos of him belly-up and relaxed. Mo house-sat for five days and it was clean and well cared for. I highly recommend Mo, and will be using his services in the future. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‼️”
“Brooke was a fantastic partner in watching our dog and our home while we were away. She made sure our dog got lots of attention and sent us updates. Great communication. We came home to a happy non-stressed pup and a tidy home. 5 stars!”
“Katherine is amazing! She was so communicative and my pups absolutely loved her! She even had to deal with my doggy needing ear drops, which he does not love, and handled it amazingly. I'm so glad I found her!”
“We are so grateful for Rasika! She was WONDERFUL with Marley, spending so much quality time and really making her her priority, which gave us all the comfort and peace while we were away. She was also so willing to do what she could to accommodate us when we had an unexpected family event that resulted in us needing her a few days sooner. Couldn’t ask for more! ♥️”
“Woody was great to work with. Our dogs were very well cared for. Communication was consistent and helpful. Our house was really well taken care of. We look forward to having Woody stay with our dogs again.”

Mandee is amazing! I just moved to Austin and had to find a sitter for my anxious dog while I go out of town for a few days. Leading up to it, she took him on walks to get him comfortable with her. When the day came, he was calm and loved being with her. Coming home, he was calm and happy. She followed the directions for when she left and our place was the same way we left it. No complaints!
Heather is absolutely AMAZING! 💛 We feel so lucky to have found her and trusted her with our sassy little senior pup. From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable, and throughout her stay, Heather went above and beyond to make sure our girl was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Her daily videos were honestly the highlight of my days and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear how attentive, patient, and loving she was with our pup, especially knowing that our little grandma can be a bit of a tricky gal! If you’re looking for someone you can genuinely trust with your fur babies, I cannot recommend Heather enough. She took such wonderful care of our girl, and we came home to a happy, well-loved pup. 🥹 Thank you SO much again, Heather! We appreciate you more than you know! 💛💛💛
I couldn’t have been happier with the care my dog, Shadow, received! Noelle did a wonderful job caring for him and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Shadow was in such good hands. Noelle was responsible, caring, and clearly loves animals. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my Shadow! ❤️🐾
Regan was wonderful and truly heaven sent! We were in a bind and desperately needed someone to look after our home and sweet Labrador, and she came through for us 🙌🏼💕 We loved the pictures/videos she sent, our home was exactly how we left it and our pup was happy as could be when we got back. Would highly recommend Regan to anyone looking for a reliable, quality sitter for their furry friends!
I can’t recommend her highly enough. She helped me when we didn’t even know each other, and she was there for me and my babies when I needed her. She took wonderful care of them, gave me real peace of mind, and spoiled them beyond belief—which, of course, is exactly the idea!
Simone came through for us when we needed someone for house sitting at the last minute for a long trip abroad. She was flexible with her schedule and provided frequent video and picture updates about Chuy. She was very communicative and prompt with her responses. We felt at ease knowing she was taking good care of our little man!
Nic was just great. I have one pretty large dog and a medium German shepherd and he handled them very well. Everyone was happy when I got home. He also took care of my two cats, which was amazing. He also gave me some great tips and advice on handling my dogs and gave me great suggestions on new gear for them. I will definitely be using Nic 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 Rollingwood 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 Rollingwood 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 Rollingwood 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.
