“Allyanna is wonderful! She recently house sat for us for almost a week. From the meet and greet, to her time at our home she was very accommodating and easy to work with. She sent pics and indulged our pup with the things she loves. We will definitely contact Allyanna again when we need to be away and it is a no brainer for us to recommend her to others. Thank you Allyanna!!”
“Rachel was amazing in taking care of our small pack of dogs! We'd definitely recommend her and look forward to having her over the next time we are away.”
“So grateful for John! Very understanding of the difficulties I had leaving my Luna for the first time like this - sent me multiple texts, pictures and videos assuring me she was doing well and happy. Very flexible with my schedule and made the point to come meet Luna ahead of time on a previous day. Very attentive to Luna's schedule and her specific little quirks. Luna clearly enjoyed her time, giving John a super speed tail wag and some kisses before we left.”
“Riley was fantastic! Kept in great touch, sending pictures and letting us know what the animals were up to. It was a great relief to be able to have him at the house staying with our dogs and cat so they were less stressed. Would definitely use Riley again!”
“Yelitza was absolutely wonderful with my pups. She stayed with them at my house while I was away, and spent plenty of time with them to keep them happy and loved, - walks, plays, and snuggles. She was very engaged and meticulous, and I was very happy about the whole experience.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life (cats and dogs). Currently, my family has 2 dogs and 3 cats. Living away from home for college is difficult without my pets, so I would love to tend to yours as I am missing mine! I’m working part-time while taking classes but always have time for a furry friend (the care goes both ways in my opinion! It’s a win-win). I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and have always cared for them. I ensure a mess free environment and love giving the pets lots of love!
“Thank you, Lee. Lee was incredible. She took good care of my spoiled rotten boy as if he was her own. She did more than asked of her during her stay at my home. You can tell she's a dog lover from the moment she entered my home to meet Beau and me I felt at ease leaving my boy with her. She sent photos during her stay which made me feel that he was in good hands. I will definitely call Lee the next time I need a sitter. Again, thank you Lee!!”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them! I have a 4-year-old dog of my own who is friendly, playful, and gets along great with other dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different personalities and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. When your pup is in my care, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind with regular updates and lots of love for your furry friend! 🐶❤️ I’m available most weekends and have more flexibility to spend time with your pup. Monday through Friday, I work from 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Before work, I always make sure my own dog gets outside for some morning exercise and attention. When I get home, we spend time playing and relaxing together in our fenced-in yard. Your pup will be welcomed into our routine and given plenty of love, attention, and playtime! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and get some exercise, and I’ll always supervise outdoor time. I have a friendly 4-year-old dog who gets along great with other dogs and can provide a companion for your pup. I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special instructions.
About: For many years, I aided my aunt who owns her own dog grooming salon, keeping the dogs occupied and bathing them! I have also taken care of many friends and family members dogs, even cats! I had two dogs, two Guinea pigs, and recently just adopted a cat! I volunteer weekly at a bunny farm cleaning their cages and spending time with them. I enjoy all animals and being a difference in their lives! I currently have a full time job, typically work week hours, with some overtime so I will need to work around that! Available weekends and late night!! I have a park nearby and am familiar with safe areas for dog walking! I think it is important to listen to the client and will do everything I can to ensure your pets safety and help you feel at ease knowing they are in good hands! Every client is different and I respect each and every boundary.
“Sam is great every time. I know when I come home to my pup who is calm and happy instead of starved for attention that it’s because of the love and time that Sam spent with her. Thank you!”
About: I’ve had cats since 2018 and got Lincoln my dog during the 2020 year. He and I went on many trips including up five mountains. I am openly available, especially on weekends. Weekdays work the best for me especially in afternoons and evenings. As I am on break from school my schedule is open. I have a fenced in yard and live on a cul de sac allowing for dogs to have safe supervised environment to play and relax. Cats are kept inside and can be moved if necessary.
About: Hey there. I’m probably new to your town as I am an ICU Travel nurse. I dreamed of something like this app and now the dream has come true. I love dogs and cats. Owned them since I was 12. I love working towards earning their trust and bond. And they pretty much pick me as their favorite person in the household. When I would travel and have roommates, their cats and/or dogs would choose to sleep on my bed rather than their owners. The owners would appreciate me as their furry baby’s awesome uncle. The owner would have to lift the pet off my bed and lock them in their own room to sleep and cuddle with at night. I work well with furry babies because I understand and respect them. I have no ego. No agenda. Other than working mindfully towards creating a loving and playful bond. I’m very patient and respect the individual furry family member for their uniqueness. I understand Pavlovian conditioning and ethology. I don’t ever ever ever never hit or discipline pets ever. That is stupid and unproductive. Rewarding proper behavior with treats or pets is the way to go. Furry babies love me and choose me because I fulfill their needs and understand what they do and dont like. Cats dont like to be picked up or touched in vulnerable/threatening locations. So I don’t, even though of course I’d love to hold them and squeeze them with love in a selfish manner. I meet them and form relationships with them on their terms. Not my own selfish terms. I should add I don’t mind getting scratched or bit by cats or dogs. They can’t linguistically speak. So their biting and scratching is their way of communicating their needs. Needless to say, I’m relatively tech savy and will meet your needs as the owner too. Through updates, pics, and prompt communication. Peoples’ furry babies are sacred. I treat it as such. It would be an honor and a dream to participate in their lives, even if it is for a short time in a different city as a travel nurse. So if I’m around the neighborhood and free, it would be great to connect to you and your furry family member and be their cool uncle. Again. Travel nurse. Will update schedule. But it varies week to week. I may work days or nights. But I’ll update my schedule. And hopefully I’m available. As a travel nurse, I’m limited to walking pets and visiting other people’s homes. I used to do home infusions as a nurse. So I’m pretty comfortable entering a person’s temple and maintaining the sanctity of their homes. People and pets love me. It’s good to be me.
“Tesse stayed with my three dogs while I was away for 4 days. After the original meet and greet I felt quite comfortable with how the kids interacted with her. It was subzero weather conditions a few days so walks were impossible, but she had the convenience of quick potty breaks out in the yard where I had made some trails. She sent amazing photos throughout her stay and communicated as needed. I would rebook Tesse in a heartbeat should the need arise again.”
“This was the second time we used Mariana to come stay at our house for a week to care for our pups. She is fantastic! She provides daily updates, leaves the house sparkling clean, and sends the best pictures. She's so trustworthy and you can truly sense she loves your animals like they are her own. She knows so much about dogs, and even provided some tips for us with our very energetic puppy. I can't wait to book her again! ”

Brielle was amazing with our pup! We had a last minute request because our other sitter had to cancel and she was able to accommodate. She gave us updates all the time and was very responsive. We would absolutely use her as a sitter again. Thank you, Brielle!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 308 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sentinel Heights. 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 Sentinel Heights 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 Sentinel Heights 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 Sentinel Heights 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.
