“Kami was great. My dogs looked so happy with her. She stayed at my house and I felt so comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands. She even put our trash out on trash day! Highly recommend!!”
About: I have had dogs since I was little and love playing with them and taking care of them. I’m an athletic person so if the dog is in the mood to play, I can certainly be a great playmate! I have experience with dog sitting overnight, dog walking, and drop-in visits. I work at a nursing home, but I get to choose the shifts I pick up, so my schedule can be very flexible. I am looking for more pups to help out! I can provide overnight care at the owners home. While I am there, I make sure to take your dog for walks, play outside, and give lots of rubs and cuddles. As a person, I am very low maintenance, so you won’t have to provide hardly anything if come care for your pups overnight.
“Mark was amazing from the day he came over to meet us and our dogs until we returned from vacation. He made sure our dogs were comfortable due to their age. He also Made sure the stayed very close to their daily routine. Mark sent pictures and videos to insure us that they were receiving the best care, and they were! We highly recommend Mark and will definitely use him again. Kevin T.”
“Mercedes was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! She communicated thoroughly and consistently. She sent lots of pictures and met the needs that we requested. She made the process so smooth and relieved stress for my husband and I about the well-being of our puppies. When needed she will be our first choice in the future and would recommend her 1000%!”
“Cassidy was amazing!! She sent pics, videos and took my baby to a game and the park!! She is a amazing sitter!! So happy to have found her!! Definitely will be booking with her again!!”
“Josephine did a great job taking care of our senior dog and two cats. We got daily updates on how they were doing and came home to them happy and healthy. Highly recommend if you're looking for a house sitter!”
“Trystine did great. I'd never had a house sitter before and the one I had booked previously ghosted 2 weeks before the booking, but Trystine stepped in and saved the day. Responsive to messages and respectful of your wishes and boundaries. My dog is shy and she gave him the patience he needed to adjust to her. Thank you.”
“Sarah was awesome! The animals were well taken care of, she was punctual, communicated very well and we felt very at ease. We’re new in town and it’s always difficult finding someone trustworthy, but we’re so happy to have found Sarah. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid. I have tended to a total of six beloved family dogs from around age 7 to 19 when I moved. Some of my regular care for them included providing fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, going outside, playing, and brushing their coats. I have also administered some medication such as vet prescribed pills, sprays, or ear drops when needed. I helped to train them on basic commands and leash training. I am used to recognizing dog body language, following care instructions tailored to each pet, and sticking to a schedule. Since I am currently in-between jobs, my schedule is very flexible. I am most often available to provide pet care anytime on any day! I can also work for extended periods of time. Typically, my care for pets includes providing fresh food and water, playing, pets, and regular potty breaks. However, different pets have different needs and I am able to provide the care that suits your unique pet!
“Sierra watched out two dogs for the first time and we could not be happier! We received updates and pictures of our pups and felt very comfortable having her watch them! We will be using Sierra again!”
“Bobbie was great! I was nervous about having a stranger at my house and with my pet, but I spent some time getting to know her and felt much better! She's very kind and warm while also being professional. Super helpful and flexible. I will definitely be making Bobbie my go-to sitter.”
About: My name is Ashley, I've loved pets and have had them my whole life. I worked as veterinarian assistant for many years. Pets become family and deserve to be treated like family, I'd be happy to give them that love and attention while you’re away. I have done house sitting and dog walking in the past for clients. It's so rewarding! I also have experience administering medications, giving injections and other medical treatments, as well as caring for special needs pets. I currently work a full time job during the week. My weekly work schedule is from 7am-3pm. I am off on Saturday and Sundays My pets are very spoiled and have many of their own dog beds and of course lots of snacks! I can continue the routine with your pets as they are use to.
“Lily was great! Professional communication, gave us an update and photo while we gone, and left our home tidy. I would definitely recommend and plan to book her service again.”
About: I would say what sets me apart is I’ve had special training incase of any type of emergency or mishap. I am a very forgiving person also. My schedule is fairy open so I have time to fit most a lot of things in. One of which is taking care of animals I most walk them at the park or play with animals in my house. My home can fit 1-2 dogs or 3 cats at a time
“Alex (William) was fantastic! My dogs immediately took to Alex’s calm and friendly demeanor and seemed to really like him. I was gone for 10 days and Alex sent pictures every day - usually one of each dog, twice a day, and that was really comforting for me to see how well they were doing. Alex also left the house better than he found! Alex is simply the best! You can’t go wrong with him to care for your pets and home.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 315 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rudolph. 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 Rudolph 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 Rudolph 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 Rudolph 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.
