“Absolutely sweetheart!! I trusted her with my two polar opposite dogs and she did absolutely amazing!! Stayed with them all day so they didn’t have to be in a cage all day. She was very responsive and send updates throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again!!”
“Anna was amazing with our cat and home. We are so thankful for her care and communication. Her flexibility when our travel plans were delayed was a lifesaver.”
“Our very spoiled Labbies did great with Kyle. The house was well-taken care of during our week away. And now that they are buddies, we can book Kyle again for future trips...”
“Carissa was a lovely dog/house sitter who stayed in communication our entire trip! She was wonderful with our two large dogs and left our house very clean. We will definitely rebook in the future!”
“We went out of the country for 8 days and asked Brittany to house sit and watch our two big dogs and she was very reliable. She sent us daily updates and let us know how the dogs were doing/asking if anything else needed to be done for them. She also left the house in great shape when we got home. It was a big relief having her there since we did not have service for a lot of the trip.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up caring for our family dog, geese and ducks! Lately, i've committed myself to helping dogs and cats feel loved, safe and secure while their pet parents are away. I have worked at a local veterinary clinic in their boarding department caring for overnight and long term clients. I previously worked at a local animal shelter for a year, where I learned the true responsibility of taking care of animals in all shapes and sizes. Senior animals have such a special place in my heart! Animal happiness and safety is a main priority of mine. I am looking to take care of your animals part time and as needed! I have plenty of experience with all kinds of dogs and cats! I have 3 dogs currently, a shepherd mix, husky mix and a mini pin doberman alongside 2 cats! We have a large fenced in yard which allows us to let our dogs get their energy out and enjoy some time alone outside, while we continue to keep a close eye on them. The dogs are never out of my sight, I know how mischievous they tend to be.
“Cindy is amazing!! She kept me up-to-date on Riley all throughout the weekend and sent the cutest pictures of her. She took such good care of Riley and the house. I felt so good knowing that Riley was in good and loving hands. I highly recommend her and look forward to having Cindy again!”

“To say that Grace did an AMAZING job housesitting and caring for my senior puggle with separation anxiety, is an understatement. I was out of the state for three nights and knowing my home and dog Brutus were being cared for by Grace not only put my mind at ease, but allowed me to leave without a single hesitation. She is dependable, considerate, communicative, calm and has a lovely personality! Little old Brutus can be difficult when I’m not with him and I know she did her very best to calm his anxiety, give meds and I returned to a spotless house! Thank you Grace! You did an outstanding job and I can’t thank you enough! 100 stars!”
“Kati is truly an exceptional person! She sent pictures every day along with updates. I didn’t worry the entire week I was gone which allowed me to enjoy my son’s wedding. She left our home cleaner than we had!”

About: I’ve grown up with high energy Aussies since I was a kid. From the moment I moved to a pet friendly home and schedule I started on the Aussie pack I have now. I have trained two dogs from puppies and rescued two from unfortunate situations. Therefore, I understand and can assist in potty and leash training, socialization, or a good old fashioned game of fetch. I’ve always loved working with dogs and seeing the joy they get from just being with you. In college I often volunteered with animal shelters to assist in socializing dogs. While I was active duty military I relied on my dog sitter to ensure my pups were getting all of their energy out and getting all the love with my unpredictable schedule. Therefore, I know how important it is to have someone who you can trust with your pups. I will strive to treat your fur babies just like my own because they’re our family! I recently retired from active duty military and am taking some much needed down time with my 4 dogs. I am available Monday-Saturday and would love to fit your fur babies into the routine! I have a large fenced backyard, I believe in positive reinforcement, and have 4 excited friendly pups who would love to share their space and toys with any new friends that want to play!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was really little from them being born to them being seniors. I currently do work in a kennel so I have been with all types of dogs from really sweet puppies to pretty spicy adult dogs even some senior ones. I also have experience with dogs that have to have medication in the morning or are you at night and dog that are deaf and blind. I truly love any dog so it’s very hard for one to scare me away. so because I do work at a dog kennel I have been around dogs as small as 5 pounds all the way up to dogs that are 160 pounds. Monday, Wednesday- Friday I am available after 3pm but Tuesdays, Saturday, & Sunday I am available all day long for walks, house sitting, & I can also offer some grooming services like Bath, Nails, Paw Pads, and Desheds. So I do work at the dog kennel part-time. I’ll mostly be available on the weekends all day Saturday, Sundays, Tuesday. I’ll also be will be available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights though So if you would have me over at your place to watch your dogs, I tried to make sure I have a very open communication with my customers. That way they know that what is going on with their dogs that way if there’s any problems, they are notified right away. I do like sending photos out throughout the day. That way you get to see them enjoying their time playing around that way you know what they’re up to in their day.
“Alexis was amazing! She kept me updated on my pup, she was respectful of our home and she even left us flowers and did the laundry!!! I would recommend her to everyone!!!! Thank you Alexis, we appreciate you so much!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Slater
Overall, Laura is a good sitter. We did have a misunderstanding early in the stay about our dog’s expected routine and schedule, but, Laura was responsive to feedback and corrected the issue. She was on top of things and adhered to schedule for the rest of the week, provided ample updates and photos, and left the house in great condition. It is evident that she put in time to clean up before we arrived. Our pets seemed to love her and they both seemed to have had a great time!

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 Slater 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 Slater 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 Slater 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.
