“Emmalia was absolutely amazing! She was on time to both the meet and greet and the sitting, which has been difficult for several others. Gave me several updates over the couple days. I was gone and was always cheerful. Will definitely be using her again!!”
“Janayah took excellent care of Mylo while I was out for the day. She arrived on time, was very caring, and Mylo loved her right away. She gave him lots of attention, took him for his afternoon walk, and fed him right on schedule. I felt completely comfortable knowing Mylo was in great hands and will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Janayah!”
“Kim was amazing with Gunner! She gave him so much attention and care while I was away, and the regular photo updates gave me total peace of mind seeing how happy and well taken care of he was. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Kim the next time I need coverage!”
“We cannot thank Taylor enough for watching our dogs while we were away. We met her prior to the trip and the dogs were happy with her instantly (I enjoyed chatting with her too). During our time away, she checked in a few times and I had no worries that the dogs were enjoying their time with her in the comfort of their own home. She left the house in perfect condition and I could tell that the dogs had been well cared for while we were gone. I highly recommend her, and would absolutely have her care for our dogs in the future. We all were so lucky to have found her!”
“Maranda was absolutely incredible with Boone. She kept me updated with adorable photos, made him special puppy ice cream, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and a wonderful communicator. The house was spotless when I got home and Boone was relaxed and happy. She’s trustworthy, loving, and exactly the kind of sitter every dog parent dreams of! Boone and I are so lucky to have found her.”
“We were away for two weeks and Blyth stayed at our house for the 2nd time. She is amazing. She had a devastating family emergency come up while we were away and she never even considered leaving early. She goes above and beyond and our 8 month old springer adores her. We were comfortable he was loved on and in great hands.”
“Katilyn was amazing! She came to the meet and greet on time, was really communicative, and our dog Turbo seemed to love her! We had no issues at any point during her stay and would book her again!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of dogs and have raised several large breed dogs myself. It currently isn’t the right time for me to welcome a new dog into my life full time but I miss having the company. I’m currently working from home so I have lots of flexibility for cuddles, walks and potty breaks. I’m also a runner and happy to take any high energy dogs out for a tour. I do not have a backyard but am close to parks where we can walk. I have space for a dog bed or crate if needed. My neighborhood is dog friendly.
About: I have experience caring for all kinds of pets, from horses and cats to energetic dogs. I’m patient, caring, and always make sure each pet gets plenty of love and attention. I currently work part-time, so my availability varies throughout the week. I’m happy to work around my job schedule and will communicate my availability clearly. I’m especially available on my days off and weekends. I always follow your pet's routine, including feeding, walks, playtime and special instructions. I'll care for your home with respect & make sure your pet feels safe & comfortable while you're away
“Edyn was great and my Bulldog loved her and her Cowbell. She did a wonderful job and is coming back tomorrow for a week. We are so happy with her warmth and care for our Bulldog and home. Thank you so much Edyn!! :)”
“Maria was beyond amazing!!! She was even able to accommodate and stay an extra day when our flights got changed at the last minute. She kept us updated the entire time with videos and photos. She is truly a gem!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 9 . My family has relied on me to walk their dogs , feed and bath them I’m currently employed part time but seeking to work extra hours. Trying to find gigs such as this which could work with my class schedules and my other personal things. I have a fenced yard in my house, and friendly dogs as well. I usually take my dogs on walks every morning and evening depending.
About: I grew up around and have experience with horses, farm animals, cats, and dogs. I am partial to Maine Coons and large breed dogs, especially boxer/bully breeds and all their quirkiness but really enjoy caring for all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. I enjoy gardening and am also happy to help out with any plants or gardens in need of care as well. I work remotely so I will be available to be around a majority of the day and will have ample time to play and interact with your pet. Whether your pet loves chasing squirrels, snuggling on the couch, being adored 24/7 or all the above and then some-I’m their person. I’ve cared for senior cats and dogs, pets with special diets, high anxiety and high-energy tail-waggers for over 20 years. I’m all about sticking to your pet’s routine like clockwork-even if it involves gourmet chicken and rice at 6 a.m.

About: Hi! My name is Laurel, but my friends call me Lolo. I have been caring for animals since I could walk. No, seriously, I have! I was blessed with the opportunity to grow up with all kinds of animals to care for daily. If you have grown up on a ranch or a farm, you know what I am talking about. We had two Australian Shepherds, horses, a donkey, barn cats, you name it! Those days sparked the passion I have for animals and taught me how to work my booty off. We were taught to NEVER leave the gate open, always clean up after ourselves (and the animals), and to show love to every living being. As an adult, I worked at multiple doggy daycares, adventured with some really amazing horses (and riders) at a Girl Scout camp in California, and have taken every opportunity I have found to spend time with animals. My dream is to one day open a ranch for rescue animals of all species and breeds. Until then, I am elated to be offering my pet care services to YOU and your furry friends (or scaly, I don't judge). Follow our Instagram to see what we are up to. I can't wait to hear from you! I can definitely handle young crazy puppies that jump, chew, pee everywhere, etc. as well as older (more fragile) dogs that need specialized care. I also have experience giving medications. I don't mind having dogs in my car and will happily bathe your dogs upon request. I am passionate about caring for all animals, especially dogs, and I am not intimidated easily! If you have other pets in your home, I will feed them and give them some love as well. I look forward to meeting your fur/feather/scaly babies and will treat them as they are my own! I work remotely Monday-Friday for a small company and I have a very flexible schedule. I can tailor my day to fit your pets needs, and I will be with them most of the day! **I absolutely update all of my clients with photos and updates! I give you my direct cell phone number so you can contact me at any time if you want to know how your babies are doing. Safety of your pet is my number one priority. I never leave your home until your dog is properly leashed and wearing protective footwear when necessary. Please understand that I will not be able to provide a dog walk without proper safety equipment such as a collar with updated tags, a secure leash, etc. I operate my own pet care business out of my home, caring for your pets IS my weekly routine. I have a very flexible schedule. Safety of your pet is my number one priority. I never leave your home until your dog is properly leashed and wearing protective footwear when necessary. Please understand that I will not be able to provide a dog walk without proper protection for their paw pads due to the high heat in the summer. My own house has multiple baby gates to ensure no dog escapes through any entry point as clients are coming and going. Our backyard is fenced and we keep a lock on our gate at all times. We have a shaded area for dogs to go potty even on the hottest of days and keep our AC set to 78 or lower at all times.
“Vicky was so personable! She sent multiple pictures everyday of our dog and cat. We will be using her next time we travel. She stayed at our house for 2 weeks and did a great job caring for the house too! Book her, she is amazing!”
About: I’ve been a vet assistant for over 3 years and am studying to be a vet tech. I have experience with a wide range of temperaments and medical conditions and understand the care needed. I am fortunate to be able to see first-hand the beautiful, unique love between humans and their pets. I know being away from our fur babies can be stressful for you and them so I guarantee that I will give the love, comfort, energy and care needed as though they were my own :) For four days a week, I work 8am-6pm. I offer my services before and after. On my days off, which are inconsistent, I am open all day unless otherwise specified. Available on weekends too, unless otherwise specified. With clear, precise information on your pet, their lifestyle, and with you and your home, I am able to do whatever is needed with safety and satisfaction.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 83 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Simla. 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 Simla 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 Simla 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 Simla 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
