“SO appreciative of Audrey! She was so very sweet to our old, needy dog. 😁 Both of our dogs loved her! She communicated with us daily and if we had questions, she was quick to answer. We will use her again!”
“Jacob is hands-down, an amazing dog sitter! We never had to worry a bit. He always went above and beyond. And always kept us updated! I highly recommend him. And I don’t like to give such high recommendations because then maybe he might not be available for me next time lol. But please use Jacob, if you are ever in need of a dog sitter.”
“Dru was such a great home and pet sitter! She was very communicative, kind, knowledgeable, and she was very patient with my highly anxious, noisy, husky/shepherd mix. Her and her partner were respectful of my space and left it in great shape for me to come home to after a long travel day. Dru is everything I look for in a kind, responsible, communicative, trustworthy person to trust my home and babies with, while I'm away. I'm grateful for the peace of mind she provided me with, by knowing my babies and home were in good hands, while I was away. I will absolutely have her sit for me again!! Thanks Dru!”
“Emma was fantastic! She is a very sweet girl and watched our 15 year old dog for several days while we were out of town. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures randomly as well. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies.”
“No word can explain how wonderful she is. She’s very kind very hard worker. She is perfect and beautiful. I’m so grateful that I have found her. I trust her with my everything. I’m blessed to know her.”

About: Hi, I’m Jordyn. I am 26 years old with an Bachelor of Science degree. I have a passion of caring for animals. I have 1 dog named Leo, he is an American Staffordshire Pitbull. I’ve had him since 2020 when he was 3 months old. I have been dog sitting for 6 years now. I have experience working in a dog daycare for 3 years. My additional duties working in a dog daycare involved keeping the kennels clean of waste, dog fur, stray food and water, and other material that keep dogs from being comfortable away from their owners. I enjoy being able to play and have fun with dogs. While walking your dog I will make sure he/she stays dehydrated throughout the summer/winter. Feel free to contact me about any questions you have or concerns and times that I am available to care. Thank you! Feeding: Start the day by feeding pets according to their specific dietary needs and specific feeding times through out the day. Exercise: Take dogs for a morning/afternoon walk or engage them in playtime. 1. Feeding: Ensure pets are fed according to their specific dietary needs. Provide fresh water daily. 2. Exercise: Take dogs for regular walks or play with them to keep them active. For cats, engage them with toys or provide space for climbing and exploration. 3.

Attention and Affection: Spend quality time with pets to meet their social needs. This can include petting, playing, or simply sitting together. 5.

About: I provide personalized, loving care for every pet, ensuring they feel at home while you’re away. With experience handling puppies, large breeds, and active dogs, I adapt to their unique needs, whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities! I am a first-year medical student for OU, but I have a relatively flexible schedule, with studying being done anywhere! I wake up early to make sure potty time is given along with walks and afternoons are usually spent at playing in the backyard. I am usually around of weekends! In my home, pets enjoy a spacious, pet-friendly home with plenty of room to relax and a large, fenced in backyard with ample play area. I live near several dog parks and open spaces, perfect for playtime and walks. For grooming needs, I have access to a dog bath, a dog grooming vacuum with brush and clipper attachments, and I can safely crate pets in my XL crate if needed during the day. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I’ll ensure your house stays in perfect condition. I treat your home with the utmost respect and focus on making sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
“Anita (Cheyenne) did an amazing job with our two 6-month-old Great Dane puppies. She kept them entertained and happy while we were gone and kept us up to date with videos and pictures. Will definitely have her help with our fur babies again!”

Trying different routes, and sniffing to find treats as well :)
“Amna was absolutely awesome. I have 3 dogs all between 2 and 3yrs old. One that is blind and mostly deaf. They’re also an absolute handful. She arrived early, took amazing care of my idiots. Updated me on every detail. My idiots got into it a little while outside (not uncommon) she not only handled it perfectly, separating them, checking for and treating a few small wounds. She updated me everytime she re cleaned and bandaged the wounds. Her experience is invaluable and the main reason I requested her in the first place was to be able to handle a worst case scenario like my dogs created for her. 500/10 will be using her for all future dog and house sitting. Absolutely top notch care, amazing communication, and made me feel SOOOO reassured that my boys were in great hands while I was gone.”

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.
<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 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 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.
