“This is our second time working with Diana and we can’t recommend her enough. Our old dogs can be pretty high maintenance, but she does a great job caring for them when we’re away. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience with this sitter! Antonio was so nice and responsive, keeping me updated throughout the stay. The pups were clearly well taken care of and happy. He left the house clean and followed instructions provided. Will definitely be using Antonio again!”
“Jovelle always takes the best care of my pets and they are so happy when she is here. I get lots of updates and great photos and everything is tidy and just as I left it when I get home.”
“Sydney was very sweet with my pets and sent me pictures to let me know my cat was thriving while I was away. She was communicative and responsible, following all my instructions. I will definitely use her again!”
“Absolutely stellar care! Myra provided such living and attentive care to our somewhat troublesome cur, who took to her like butter on warm bread. Myra kept us up to date with beautiful photographs and humorous commentary. She’s a delight and we look forward to our next engagement already!”
“Paulo has been fantastic. My lil guy shadow is timid and fearful therefore he barks a lot and can be tough to befriend but Paulo remained persistent and kind. Him and shadow are on their way to best friend status. Other news is that he was punctual and so friendly. He’s easy to work with. I will work with him again.”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 2 toy poodles and we could not be happier. Calvin is THE BEST! He kept us updated with pictures throughout our weekend getaway and took the best care of our fur babies, and our condo! We’ll definitely have Calvin watch our puppies from now on and can’t thank him enough for everything. If we could give more than 5 stars we would!”
“Becca is the absolute best! Not only do our doggies love her, but her responsiveness, professionalism, and sheer adoration for fur babies makes her the perfect pet sitter. We have used Becca’s services several times now, and each time the dogs are returned happy and exhausted. Becca is friendly and compassionate, and would be an excellent sitter for any animal of any age. She has also helped train my 6 month old puppy, and wow what a difference it has made! Thank you for everything, Becca, you are a rock star!!!”
About: Hi! We’re sisters and we speak spanish🫶🏻. We have 3 dogs and a deep affection for dogs. We had our eldest dog for 14 years! We grew up with dogs in our lives from a young age and have always treated them like family. In 2024 we had to nurse our puppy from a very deadly illness and she is happy and healthy now. I, Wendy, am a baker and dog lover! I work for a day care in the mornings and a bakery on the weekends. I love to spend my free time caring for other dogs and making sure they have a reliable pet sitter. I do much research for healthy treats and food and fun activities for my dogs. I care a lot about their well-being and am I always making sure they are fed,warm, and loved for. I, Daniela, am a college student majoring in Biology 🧪. I am also a certified phlebotomist 🩸. I love to meet new dogs and care for them! Rover is my current occupation while I’m studying. I have a big heart and lots of time to spend getting to know your dog and their mannerisms. I have 3 dogs at different age stages who have different needs but I am available all day. I have scheduled feedings and walks and time for their medicine. I have a very open schedule and can make time and space for more dogs. I have a fenced yard and a gated side yard(with roof) if needed to separate the dogs. I have a small crate and XL crate if needed. I also have a dedicated dog room with a gate indoors. I will make sure your dog feels safe and secure at all times.
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life, from fostering puppies and kittens from the animal shelter to raising many dogs and cats! My family raised me to be an animal lover as we care for animals in such a different way. I have done overnight sittings, walkings, and day care visits for many friends and family and decided to join here to expand my abilities! I love getting to know all different kinds of animals and being able to provide them the love and care they need while their owners are away. I am currently going to start sonography school and I am not able to work a full-time job as a result I would love to watch your babies.I usually like to go for walks so it would be easy to fit any animal in my schedule as well! I have a big teddy bear of a dog that is the most spoiled rescue dog ever! If i am staying at the owners house I let them feel comfortable sleeping with me and I always clean up after myself if at someone else’s house and make sure to always keep the house tidy!
“Monica is amazing! She took such good care of our pups; specialized walks depending on energy levels, park play, spent time giving attention and love to them while being on top of all medicines or ointments. My dogs absolutely adore her and I will definitely book again and again with her! 🐶🩷🐶🩷”
“Mike stayed with both of our pups while my husband and I had an overnight and did a great job. Our puppy can be a handful and our older girl suffers from some anxiety… both pups have looked for him every morning! He is very attentive with both dogs and is very patient with all of my instructions😀 we will continue to have Mike watch our babies… pretty soon he may be their favorite human!”
“Another 5-star review for Emily 🥰 she took care care of our dog Benny, cat Simon and our house for a week and made us feel so at ease with videos and updates ☺️ honestly, couldn’t wish for a better experience”
About: I’ve had dogs every since I was a kid, I have had experience with dog that show aggression. I know that every dog is different and you need to listen to the signs that they show you I’m a dependable, active, and caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and making sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or a slower pace, I’m committed to creating a safe, positive experience tailored to their needs. I’m responsible, communicative, and will treat your pets with the same care I would give my own. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. For pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I make sure they receive regular walks, playtime, feeding according to instructions, fresh water, and plenty of attention and affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and any specific needs or routines they have. I also prioritize safety by keeping a clean environment, monitoring behavior changes, and following all owner instructions carefully. My goal is to make pets feel secure, cared for, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands.

I had a great experience with this sitter! Antonio was so nice and responsive, keeping me updated throughout the stay. The pups were clearly well taken care of and happy. He left the house clean and followed instructions provided. Will definitely be using Antonio again!
Rebecca stayed in our home with our newly adopted German shepherd mix and our yellow lab while we were away for three days, and we couldn’t have been happier with her. Since it was our first time leaving Cali, we really appreciated Rebecca’s thoughtful communication—she sent regular photo updates, was incredibly responsive, and clearly understood our need for reassurance. She also recognized the unique needs of an active, intelligent shepherd and handled everything beautifully. I highly recommend Rebecca and will definitely be booking her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Stewartville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 5,396 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stewartville. 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 Stewartville 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 Stewartville 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 Stewartville 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.
