“Nicole was fantastic with my two senior dogs. She kept a consistent schedule, made sure they had their meds and supplements on time, and was an extremely respectful house guest. You can always tell your dogs felt safe and care for when they’re so calm greeting you after your trip. I would absolutely recommend her, she was amazing!”
“Kendall did a great job caring for my dogs. They loved her!! She took them on adventures and treated them to pup cups at Starbucks! Yes, my dogs are a little bougie 😊. I highly recommend Kendall to care for your pet(s).”
“As always, Stefanie was great. Our pups and cats are always happy to see her! Another sign of how great Stefanie is occurred to me recently: our cats eat food that she serves without missing a beat, even from the first visit!”
“Highly recommend!!! Anne followed our instructions, kept good care of our house, cleaned up after herself & made our pup feel SO LOVED! Daily updates & quick responses. Already have her booked again.”
“Joe did a great job with my dog. He knows dog commands and how to control a dog. My dog took to him right away when he started playing ball with him they became friends instantly. I would recommend Joe again and we'll be using him in the future.”
“We have never left our dog Tucker with anyone before and I am so happy the first time we did it was with Holli and Susan. They were wonderful with him, very communicative, and left the house clean! Would absolutely book with them again.”
“Regina watched our dog and house sat for us recently - and was awesome! Very communicative, responsive, and caring. Our dog is terrified of storms, and Regina was able to comfort her through some strong ones! Would definitely hire Regina again!”
“Allison is amazing! She is definitely our go to for taking care of our pups when we’re out of town. She took our puppy to the vet twice and was so helpful!! Thanks as always, Allison!”
“Earlier this year Elizabeth would do once a day drop in visits for our cat. But now my cat is newly diabetic and needs shots twice daily which complicates going out of town more! Having Elizabeth regularly checking on my cat and doing the shots is so helpful. I appreciate it so much!”
“Evelyn was a wonderful sitter for our dog Matilda and went above and beyond in our home. She was communicative and sent us updates. She was very sweet to our girl, who is a 3 year old lab with lots of energy and separation anxiety. We felt totally at ease knowing she was in Evelyn's care. We will definitely have Evelyn sit again!”
“My wife and I had a family vacation for 5 days and it was our first time leaving our new home and pets, so naturally we were a little nervous! However, Rachel made it so we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were away. This was such a great experience and we highly recommend Rachel. She is very kind, respectful, and reliable! We love now feeling like we have someone we can trust when we need help with the pets and we are so grateful!!!! 10 stars!”
“Courtney is an excellent pet sitter! She gives daily updates and responds quickly. She was also able to give our senior dog medication easily. Will definitely rebook in the future!”
“We’ve used Rover for years and never had such a positive experience as we did with Megan. She not only took diligent notes about all of my pups little quirks and preferences, but she really went the extra mile every opportunity she had. Our dogs loved her, too 😃. I will absolutely be using her in the future and recommending Megan to anyone looking for a pet/house sitter.”
“Brooks was excellent at taking care of our dog Cooper while we were away. They were very attentive and gave regular check ins on how Cooper was doing and what he was up to. The also administered medication as requested and followed all care instructions. I would definitely use them again in the future for my pet sitting needs!”
“Mary Elise was so very incredibly kind to coordinate and cover at last minute. Our fur babies absolutely loved her!! She sent several updates and gorgeous photos. I fully appreciated her reaching out whenever she had questions. She is irreplaceable and we will DEFINITELY be booking with her again!!”
“Hannah was very flexible, meet n greet, and is kind, confident, and understanding. She clearly has experience with loud and large dogs as well. I would trust her to watch the dogs again!”
“Olivia did an amazing job watching our dog! She was very easy to communicate with and sent lots of adorable pictures. Our little guy was very well taken care of. We would recommend Olivia to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,463 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rosston. 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 Rosston 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 Rosston 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 Rosston 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.

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.
