“Jurney did a great job keeping my fur babies during my weekend away. She always kept me informed, always pleasant, and just all around great to work with. My fur babies seem to love her as well and appeared well taken care of.”
“Hannah took such good care of Brandi and Rue. She kept us up to date each day and was so attentive with the girls! We are so thankful she cared for them and our home like her own!”
“Highly recommend! Elise took care of my pup through days of storms and rain - my dog is terrified of both - and did such a great job! The very regular pictures she sent showed a happy doggo, who seemed very relaxed and very trusting around her. When I came home, doggo was happy, well-fed, clearly well-taken care of. Moreover, Elise graciously took care of the doggo outside of the scheduled hours - both before my (changed) flight out and when my flight back was delayed. Communication with her was super smooth and super friendly. 13/10 recommend!”
“Another great stay for our pups with Lauren! We came back to happy, well cared for dogs. She did a great job keeping us updated and our anxious pup even ate with Lauren while we were gone, which speaks volumes of how comfortable Lauren helped her feel. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Alejandra was amazing, our dogs olly and isla loved her!! She was very patient with them and she cuddled and played with them alot (they’re puppies) + isla really warmed up to her which is rare because she is usually very picky about the people she’s around with. thank you so much alejandra for taking care of our kids! ◡̈ they loved you alot!! til next time!”
“Noelle did an amazing job dropping in to let our two pups out on potty breaks, feeding them and making sure all their needs were met. She was extremely communicative and made sure we got lots of pictures and updates on how they were doing while we were away for a weekend! We will absolutely use her again for any dog sitting needs.🩷”
“We are so grateful for Eleanor! Not only did she help us out with a very last minute booking when our other sitter fell through but we came home to two very happy dogs at the end of the weekend. We received plenty of pictures of them having a great time and getting love. We appreciate her and will definitely book with her again this summer!”
“If I could give Marci 10 stars I would! She went above and beyond when we were traveling OUT during the ice storm and returned during the snow storm. She braved the horrible weather and took excellent care of our dog and cat. With going through such a stressful time figuring out flight cancelations and delays it was such a relief that she made sure we knew our dog and cat were happy and safe and cared for. It made all the difference in the world, her thoughtfulness and kindness has gone above and beyond what was expected. She checked in regularly with pictures and we were able to enjoy our time away without one worry about our pets. We will continue to book with her! The. BEST. Dog sitter.”
“Matthew did an exceptional job with our three trouble makers! He went above and beyond taking care of our girls and our home. I would trust him to watch my girls again and I’m sure they would look forward to him taking care of them next time we are away!”
“Tammera was great with my fur babies. I received lots of fun pictures and was reassured they were in good hands which allowed me the freedom to enjoy my time away. I am forever grateful!”
“Aubrey was fantastic! She was very communicative, sent lots of photos, and overall just made me feel really comfortable with leaving my two boys with her. Highly recommend.”
“We have now used Hailey repeatedly, and have absolutely loved having her house sit for our boys. Her communication is outstanding, photo updates multiple times daily, and our house is always clean when we return. She loves on our pups like they are her own, and we appreciate her so much!”
“Jan is the absolute sweetest!! She texted me and sent pictures regularly and kept in contact with me thoroughly while staying over night watching my doggo. She was so kind and insanely trustworthy. So happy she was able to sit my baby!!! Definitely recommend!”
“Ruah was very communicative and reliable during her stay with our kitties. She left the place immaculate and we came home to two happy, healthy fur babies. Would work with Ruah again!”

It was wonderful having Eleanor house-sit and take care of our Lab for the week! She sent us daily photos, responded promptly to every message, and even administered his ear medication each day without any issues. We had complete peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Seward
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 832 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Seward. 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 Seward 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 Seward 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 Seward 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.
