“Rhonda is wonderful! It's been nearly a year and a half since we've gone away for a vacation or long weekend. Our last pet sitter moved away, and we're kind of picky when it comes to someone watching our babies. We knew we had found a gem when our 2 girls who are shy and standoffish went right up to greet Rhonda when she came out to meet us and our dogs. She kept us updated while we were away, which allowed us to enjoy ourselves without worrying. We already have two more stays scheduled with Rhonda and hope to add more!”
“Ray is an excellent dog sitter! She is so kind to our boys, respectful of our space, and communicates with us with ease. We have used Ray before and fully plan to use her again!”
“Kelly was so amazing!! She was very communicative and made sure to send me lots of pictures. I am pretty sure she even vacuumed which I was not expecting but so grateful. I would absolutely book with her again and plan on doing!”
“Thank you so much, Kayla! You were there to help us get our precious dog from the vet to the hospital while dealing with my chemo brain. You were there to listen and concerned for our dog. Wish you only the best in life. God bless you.”
“Kaitlin is amazing! She took great care of my bestie and sent me lots of updates. She is very adaptable and proactive when it comes to problem solving. She provided excellent care for my pup and I couldn’t be more satisfied with her as a sitter!”
About: I currently have 3 dogs at home, and have been watching pets since I was 14. My love for animals is large, and that’s why I think I am such an exceptional pet sitter! I am a college student! I have class from 11:30-12:25 Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Then on Tuesday and Thursdays I have class from 8-9:20 & 12:45-3:40!! I completely spoil my three dogs at home! I love going on walks with them and giving them all the attention they desire!! I also love playing with them it allows them to work their bodies. A snuggle is nice too🤗
About: My whole life I’ve always grown up with dogs. I’ve helped my family with our dogs from the time they were puppies. I’ve also had my own dog that had puppies and helped to raise them until they were able to leave! I currently work full time. I have 1 hour during the day and I’m done by 5 everyday! I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pets after work, or when I’m off on the weekends! I have a fenced in yard at my apartment with plenty of room for dogs to run around! I do not have my own pets here with me currently so no worries if your dogs don’t like to be around other dogs! I enjoy taking dogs for walk and cuddles on the couch!
About: I have had many animals, ranging from goats to dogs to chickens to horses. Have training since I was five. I have two dogs of my own. A black lab and a mini Aussie. I take them on daily walks through the park that is close to my house. If you have any questions, please ask. Thats what questions are for. If you aren't sure of something suggest it and I will tell you more about it. I dont have experience with all breeds of animals so please be patient and if your pets need special care please make a comment of it. Currently going to school part-time so I'm pretty flexible with my schedule as far as what and when I can take care of the littles. I don't offer boarding but when I am taking care of another's pet, I'll ask a series of questions to ensure any and any and all animals in the house will be taken care of properly and to your preferences
“Tavin was excellent with our dogs! He followed all of our directions about medicine and their quirky little preferences, and he was so thoughtful about everything. He sent regular updates about them, and asked questions when something wasn’t clear, which was great. We didn’t have to worry while we were away, because Tavin had everything under control. I genuinely think the dogs are missing him now that we are back home - They became great buddies and we’d love to have him again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 110 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Settle. 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 Settle 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 Settle 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 Settle 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.
