“Jillian is fantastic! Jillian is reasonable with pricing and works with your schedule. Jillian ensures clear communication before, during, and after each visit. She has stayed with our dog a few time and each time she has gone above and beyond in offering our dog daily activities. She sends photos and videos of the daily adventures they take together. I feel at ease knowing our dog is happy and in great hands with Jillian. Additionally she leave our home clean and sometime better than we left it. I couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for our dog and our home!”
“Cynthia was perfect for my aging greyhound Sienna. Sienna connected with her immediately and ate well while I was gone...always a big plus. Communication was good. I would definitely use Cynthia again.”
“Secret did a great job taking care of our two dogs. She gave us regular updates and sent photos which was greatly appreciated and even kept our plants watered during the high temps over the weekend. She was very professional and we would recommend for anyone looking for overnight or daily pet care.”
“Anna was very communicative and took good care of my dog, cat, and plant babies while housesitting. She sent lots of photos and clarified any doubts about feeding. I will definitely book again!”
“Trustworthy and developed a short but heartfelt connection with Paprika. To me that is most important. Reliable and spot on with communication. Definitely will recommend and hire again.! Thank you Cydney.”
“Karlyn was a blessing for us as a a dog sitter. From the initial meet & greet to our return home, Karlyn mde us feel at ease with her staying with our dog Bella. She responded quickly to questions, was very responsible with the care she provided both to Bella and to our home. She is reliable with her committments, and she sent several pictures as well so that we could see that Bella was enjoying her special time as well. We absolutely recommend her and will call her for services again in the future.”
“Simone had great communication and was amazingly flexible with our timing needs - during a holiday weekend on top of that! Having peace of mind while away was much appreciated. She was respectful and easy going. Would definitely have her back to watch my mischievous pittie anytime!”
“I can definitely say that after being gone for eight days I was very appreciative for what I came back to. I've had my challenges with the dogs so for someone to come in a take over for a week seemed a little daunting however Yolanda came through with 5 stars... I have no doubt the dogs were well taken care of as all instructions left were meticulously followed and the dogs were definitely well cared for not to mention the house was cleaner then I left it. There's nothing better then coming back from a vacation with well taken care of dogs. Would definitely recommend for worry free dog sitting”
“It was so great to be able to go away and know that our dog was in good hands. Alex was very good with communicating with us and Wolfie just loved spending time with her. We will definitely be using Alex again.”
“Christina was an excellent house sitter. She made herself available for a walk though on our fairly last minute booking. She was detail oriented, cared about the routines of each animal and left our home in excellent condition. Very responsible and reliable.”
About: I've taken care of street dogs of my childhood neighborhood and now I'm the proud father of 2 beautiful girls. I have an affinity for dogs but cats seem to have an affinity for me 😂. I LOVE walking the dogs as it is a treat for me as well. Can't wait to meet your loved one! I'm available full time and I am ready to work with you and your schedule! I'm dedicating myself to this so I can accommodate for almost anything I have a fenced yard and 2 female dogs who are very friendly and get along with other dogs. There's a yard for them to run around and a river closeby we can walk to if you're comfortable with them getting a little wet.
About: Not only do I have 2 fur babies over 75 lbs making me experienced but I also have done a lot of training with them both. King had extremely bad separation anxiety and after months of training he’s become a lot more independent and calm making us both much more happy. If you’d like me to do some basic training with your pup while you are away on vacation, I can definitely do so. No worries if not, I’ll give your fur baby lots of love and play time! I know how hard it can be to go on vacation away from your babies but I will be making this time for your pup so much fun with walks, play time, and love! I also have cared for chickens, ducks, reptiles, and would be open to learning how to care for more of your farm animals! i am available mostly every day, reach out and I can let you know if it doesn’t work for me but it most likely will! I can crate train if you have a crate in your home (I cannot provide). I can also do basic training (sit, lay down, stay, etc..) if you would like, you must provide treats as I know many have food allergies.
“This was my first time using Rover. And I was beyond satisfied. Andrew and his family took incredible care of my dog Buster. Andrew kept me informed daily of their activities, including lots of playtime in the yard, daily walks, and lots of love. Andrew was kind enough to send me lots of pictures, which made me smile every day! I felt very lucky that Buster was being so well taken care of. I will definitely book again with Andrew and his family.”
“Mikayla has been outstanding with our two GSD’s! She is very in tune to their separate personalities and is very patient with our baby King, who is shy with new people in his space. I appreciate her patience and advanced knowledge of this breed. We feel at ease and comfortable leaving the boys in her care at our home when we are away.”
“Ginger was fabulous with our family of furry kids while we were on vacation. We have 2 large dogs and 2 indoor cats and came home to happy pets that had clearly been well loved by "Auntie Ginger" while we were away. Ginger was amazing with communication while we were on vacation as well letting us know how everyone was doing and sending fun pictures. She took great care of our home as well! I was a little nervous having someone in our home while we were away but would highly recommend Ginger to anyone...even someone who is very particular about the care of their home and pets like we are. If your priority is the well-being and happiness of your pets, having Ginger pet-sit is the way to go. We have done boarding in the past and the dogs always come back a wreck and high-strung...having them in their own home with Ginger here was a perfect fit for their happiness. Ginger is amazing!”
About: From playful puppies to wise seniors, I’ve cared for cats and dogs of every breed, age, and personality. With years of experience nurturing both healthy and special-needs pets, I provide a safe, loving space where tails wag and paws relax. My big yard is perfect for playtime, my cozy home is made for snuggles, and because pet care is my full-time passion, your furry friend will never be left alone. I am available 24/7 currently.

There are no stairs in my home. I live within 1 mile of a dog park. My lawn is big and we have fruit trees. No pools or items for your pup to get tripped up on or stuck under. We do have a pet pool and sprinklers for playtime and cooling off. I am currently enrolled to be certified for pet first aid and cpr. I treat all my pets with Frontline and have treated my yard for flea control
About: We have a giant 1.5 acre fenced in yard, Perfect for your doggo to run and play while you’re away! I have been caring for animals my entire life and have had dogs and cats since I was five years old. I previously owned three dogs at once and have experience with both large and small breeds. I am comfortable administering medications, monitoring health needs, and providing attentive, responsible care. I truly love animals and understand that each pet has their own personality, energy level, and comfort needs. Whether your pet enjoys active walks, calm companionship, or extra patience and care, I strive to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away. I love being present for my pet friends and giving them lots of attention, exercise, fresh water and yummy food.

About: I have taken my mother's lab to trips to the groomer as well as getting her to be patient during bath time. I also taught her to wait for her food to be poured before eating, taught her a few tricks such as, sitting, speaking, and how to walk beside me appropriately on a leash without dragging. I only work part-time for the rest of the year, so my schedule is quite available. I have availability Mondays - Thursdays all day. I can also do overnight stays as well! I have my senior cat roam anywhere in the house, he is mainly outside. However, due to his old age, he is fragile and I don't want to change routine too much, he also needs lots of my attention and affection while I am home. I am willing to come to you instead! reducing the hassle of having to drop-off!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Scotts Flat
Jillian is a stellar pet sitter. She was incredibly reliable, communicative and caring with our two dogs. We have one very mischievous three year old dog who wants to escape our yard and go on adventures and a 17 year old senior who needs special attention. Jillian cared for both of them with confidence and when we returned they were both in good spirits, had obviously received a lot of walks and love and our home was perfectly clean. We will definitely be using Jillian’s services again.
I had an amazing experience with Jullaney and highly recommend her! She was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive with my special senior boy, Prince. She had no problem giving his medications and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was obvious she genuinely connected with him and cared about his comfort and routine. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I am so grateful for the love and attention she gave him. I will absolutely be using her again in the future!
Ana was fantastic! She did 2 days house sitting with my sweet girl who has separation anxiety and can't be left alone for long. Ana was very respectful of my home, a great communicator, and my fur baby was calm and happy when I returned. Grateful for her care and attention!

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 Scotts Flat 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 Scotts Flat 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 Scotts Flat 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.
