“I was so pleased with Tania, would I book her again absolutely. I probably have to leave Kittycat no more than twice a year and so she is not use to having a person she doesn’t know live in her house, but Tania loved her and took care of her so well the pictures that Tania sent showed how Kittycat was completely comfortable and well looked after. Thank you again Tania.”
About: Dogs have always been part of my life. I’ve raised puppies, cared for seniors, and even adopted dogs of my own. Friends, neighbors, and family know they can rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their babies as if they were mine. I’m flexible, reliable, and truly passionate about giving dogs the best care possible. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or making sure their routines are kept, I’ll make sure your baby feels safe and happy. I’m currently doing school online, so I have lots of free time to dedicate to caring for dogs. I truly enjoy spending my days with dogs whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, my flexible schedule means I can be there when you need me most! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new friends. Your pup will have space to play and feel safe. I can crate if needed and always make sure routines, safety, and comfort come first!
“Eboni handled my pets very well! I have a mini pig who is constantly testing and needs lots of attention and firm instruction and Eboni handled it very well and I came home to a very happy pig. She also cared for my chickens well. Eboni is a quick learner and respects the rules you have for your pets and your home and gives them lots of love and attention. She is also someone I was very comfortable leaving alone in my home and left things neat and clean after a few days pet sitting. I highly recommend her.”
“Dakota stayed in our home and took excellent care of our pets. I received updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He worked with our challenging Doberdane to make her comfortable with him. He is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet sitter.”
“Courtney took great care of my 3yo dog and my house for a whole week! Goldie is an anxious rescue but when we did a meet and greet she was so calm with Courtney that I felt really comfortable leaving them together. Anxiety is her only special need but Courtney was ready, willing, and able to discuss any meds or other care needs when we met in person.”
“Charlayne is a literal animal whisperer. My cats have never approached sitters and usually stay hidden. My feral who doesn’t even approach my husband much was in love with Charlayne. She is so gentle and does a great job at giving animals space to decide how close they want to be. I tried to help her understand my feral with a lot of messages on “how to” do things. She was never offended and tried all my suggestions. They formed a close bond very quickly.”
“Kali did an incredible job of looking after our dogs. We had plenty of updates and photos and the house was left spotless. Will definitely use Kali again and highly recommend her services”
About: Hello future friend! I have house and pet sat professionally for clients on two well-known websites for 5 years. I’ve done the same via personal referrals for friends & family members for 30+ years. I am very experienced. I loooove all animals & will care for, snuggle, and dote on them like the precious beings they are. I am especially good with anxious and/or emotionally insecure pets. I have experience administering medication as well. I am very quiet, neat, and clean. I'm happily single at age 56, stable, healthy, and very responsible. My schedule is flexible for walks, errands, chores, playing, and outside time. Sending much care to you as you consider your travel and housesitting plans. Best, Melissa My schedule is fairly open for pet care, petsitting, and housesitting related duties. Just let me know what you need. I’m flexible and will work with you! If I come to you, I will follow your routines, schedules, and instructions to the letter. If possible, I prefer to meet and greet with you beforehand to experience you and your fur babies in person. That way, you can introduce me to your home and routine together. I’ve had great pet care and housesitting experiences where meeting beforehand wasn’t possible as well. I like animals to be where they want to be, including the furniture, beds, etc… depending on their personal preferences.

FAQs for House Sitting - Scurry
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 894 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Scurry. 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 Scurry 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 Scurry 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 Scurry 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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
