“Kelsey watched my dog in my home for 8 days when I was out of the country, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She updated me multiple times a day with pictures, was extremely communicative, and left my house in great condition. I couldn't recommend Kelsey enough, and will be using her for all of my dog sitting needs going forward.”
“We have used Rachel multiple times for house sitting our pup. It is such a comfort knowing Rachel is looking after her. She keeps us informed, has zoned into Lexi’s needs and wants, gives her medication and lots of love and attention! We feel so blessed to have found someone so caring and reliable for our little one!”
About: I have experience taking care of animals professionally in a boarding setting and within a vet clinic (as a technician, not a doctor). I have experience handling and caring for more ‘opinionated’ patients/animals. From dogs with stranger danger or ‘spicy’ cats. I have experience caring for diabetic and higher needs animals and particularly am rewarded by caring for older fur babies, cat and dog. I have a deep care for all animals and always want to provide the best care possible. I work from home and am able to bring my work wherever I am, so I can stay with animals who cannot be left alone for long periods of time. I take care to build rapport with animals and respect their communication, going slow and reading body language in order to understand their boundaries and provide the best care possible. I look forward to providing quality and compassionate care to your furry family members. I work from home and can bring my work wherever I am. This allows me to care for animals that need more frequent care/can’t be left alone for too long. I am available for drop ins on the weekends (Friday-Monday) and some weekdays depending on my schedule. I can follow most instructions or requests within reason to keep your pet on their typical routine. I can follow medication routines, feeding routines and care needs such as crating, enrichment and training reinforcement (manners, already taught commands etc). I can clean litter boxes once per day.
“Lexie was such an amazing sitter! She took care of my pup for a week while I was out of the country. She was very communicative and took great care of my Remi. She sent me daily updates (often times 2x) and made sure that my high-energy guy was active (and tired) and well cared for. She also helped me out at the last minute, picking up a package for me. I felt so at ease having Lexie as our dog sitter and will absolutely use her again in the future.”
“Kaela is an exceptional pet sitter. She is incredibly kind, communicative, and dependable. She always treats my dogs with excellent care and genuine attention, and I can tell they’re comfortable and happy with her. Kaela is also very respectful of my home, leaving everything just as she found it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Omg! I cannot ask for a better pet sitter. Maria is a sweetheart and made us feel very secure watching Lucy while we were away. She is very communicative! We really loved that she kept updating us with pictures. I highly recommend booking her and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Tyler stayed with our two high-needs Boston terriers for a week. Not only did he take incredible care of the pups, he left our place completely immaculate, even taking care of laundry and sweeping up. He is so above and beyond, and we felt very comfortable during our trip thanks to his frequent updates and thorough care. Thanks so, so much for being so great to our wild pups!”
“This was my first time using Rover and having someone I didn’t know dog/house sit. Alissia was super sweet! She came over before our trip so we could have her meet our dog and show her around the house. She was very communicative throughout her stay! I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her! 🐶❤️”
About: I have always loved animals since I was born. When I was in high school I started pet sitting all over lancaster and when I was a senior I went to school to become a veterinary assistant which lead to tech school. A decade later I am still in the veterinary field doing what I love… saving lives! I have experience from small animal to large and even experience with exotics/pocket pets. I promise to always provide the best care possible for your fur baby! I will always treat them as my own. 🥰 I currently work for a small veterinary clinic where my hours are 9-5 Monday-Thursday and 9-12 on Fridays. I do not work weekends! I am more than willing to stop in, spend the night, or do whatever best fits your animals needs! I have had training throughout the years while being in school, attending continuing education in other states, and working with animals every single day since I was 17 years old. I am CPR certified for both cats & dogs. I promise to provide the best care possible!
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for dogs of all different ages and breeds since I was little. I’m very patient, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I always want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! :) I’m a college student with morning classes and a part-time job, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have plenty of room to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend my free time hanging out with your furry friends! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime! I’ll follow your instructions, stick to their usual routine, and make sure they have everything they need while you’re away. I’ll also be respectful of your home and leave everything neat and tidy! :)
“WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!!! Kathleen did a FABULOUS job taking care of my fur babies. She sent updates multiple times per day along with pictures of each one of the pets. 3 needed medication and one was recovering from surgery and needed special care. Care that I trusted only to a trained professional....and that she is! I was able to truly enjoy my time away; knowing that EVERYONE (and my home) were loved and cared for while we were away. I cannot say enough about Kathleen....she made it possible for me to RELAX! Thank you!!!!!”

About: I grew up taking care of dogs and cats, eventually I started working at a Pet sitting company. I love the pets special habits or tricks Have taken some basic dog training classes. I have a hybrid job that allows me to do long-term stays! I have required meetings on Tuesday morning, but otherwise have a super flexible schedule. I am not available on Saturdays or Sundays. I am not able to board at my home due to a lack of space, but my job allows me to spend full time looking after your pet. I can do check-ins or long stays if your pet needs a companion. I understand the importance of following the pet's routine.
“Kelsie provided excellent care for our two occasionally temperamental dogs and endured my over-explaining with patience and grace. She provided lots of updates and took all of their quirks in stride, maintaining their regular schedule with ease. We definitely plan to book her again in the future! (And thus: We call dibs!)”
“Debi is wonderful! This was another stay for our girl Piper with her, and once again we felt completely comfortable knowing Piper was in such caring hands. Debi is warm, attentive, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She also took great care of our home and grounds and sent wonderful pictures and updates throughout the entire time we were gone.It means so much to be able to leave Piper and not worry about her—and Piper is always happy and comfortable with Debi. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog. Thank you, Debi! ❤️🐾”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. I’m very knowledgeable about all types of pups and genuinely adore them all. My wife won’t let me have a dog yet so I would love your pet like it were my own! Please let me hangout with your dog 😇 My free time is mainly during the evenings and on the weekends while my wife is at work. So I would love to fill that time in the company of some furry friends! I abide by house rules, I am fun and playful. If permitted - I love to take them for walks and am super affectionate and loving.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,335 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ronks. 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 Ronks 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 Ronks 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 Ronks 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.
