About: I have been caring for dogs for 15 years. I love long walks and socializing them. Pick up waste clean and feed them both mornings and evenings I work around my husband’s early work schedule a long with pickups and drop off for my stepdaughter. Always have time for all animals of all kinds I have a close eye on everything that’s going on with cats and drops. I make sure there isn’t anything around them that could harm them
“We hired this pet sitter for a 3-week vacation and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive to our pets’ needs the entire time and clearly treated them with genuine care and affection. She walked the dogs every single day without fail, and we loved receiving regular pictures and videos so we could see how they were doing while we were away. She also took excellent care of our house. When we returned, everything was clean, tidy, and just as we left it. It was such a relief knowing both our pets and our home were in such capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: I had all different kinds of pets growing up, including cats, dogs, birds and rodents, so I have a lot of experience taking care of a mixed species household. Now, I have two cats living with me, Felony and Fido, and a senior cat living at home in Northern CA named Oreo turning 23 this year. I work very flexible hours, so I am available for sitting or drop ins most days! My cat's routine is very consistent so I understand how important it is, when I am sitting the pets' schedule comes before my schedule I am comfortable with walking multiple dogs and crating animals of all kinds. Making sure pets have clean and safe places to eat, sleep, play and poop is my top priority.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I have my own cat, Button, whom I love dearly and have taken care of pets for my friends lately. I am in between jobs so I am free to work with whatever schedule you have. If you have leftover food that needs to be used, I’d be happy to not let them go to waste. I prefer to care for your pets in their home territory. I am very easy going and happy to follow any instructions you have for me.
“Jennifer watched our two dogs for 10 days at our house while we were in Hawaii. Our dogs took to her immediately when meeting her. She did an excellent job watching our dogs. She provided updates throughout our trip and sent pictures of the dogs playing and cuddling her. She took the dogs for walks and played ball in the backyard. House was clean and poop was picked-up when we got home. She really provided peace of mind, so we could relax on our trip. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you so much Jennifer.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sly Park
Lillian is extraordinary! A+++++++ Our pup Teddy gets anxious when we go away, even for a day. But it was obvious from the start that Teddy adored Lillian and felt safe with her. She kept in contact and sent the cutest pics, and we came home to a happy, at peace doggy. I really believe dogs sense people's character and emotions. Seeing Teddy so at peace and joyful tells me Lillian is trustworthy, loving, compassionate, and thoughtful. She met all of his needs and left him feeling secure and content. Lillian will be our first call every time we travel from now on!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sly Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 775 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sly Park. 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 Sly Park 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 Sly Park 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 Sly Park 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.
