“Marcia is so loving to my dogs and takes wonderful care of them. My special needs dog was in great shape when I got home, and the other three were all content upon my return. She helped my little scared guy through some thunderstorms, and made sure everyone had what they needed. Also, I'm pretty sure my house was more clean when I returned than it was when I left. I was able to really enjoy my vacation knowing the pups were in good hands.”
“Leah you were amazing. Thank you for your flexibility and quick responses. I felt so comfortable leaving my giant boys with you. I can tell they felt very comfortable. We really appreciate you!”
“She was very sweet always sending pictures of our fur babies. She kept them active and loved so they wouldn't worry about where we were. We recommend her highly and will be our go to in the future!!!”
“Tatyana is great with our dog. She was very understanding to a last minute change. Communication is great! Sent pictures and updates after her visits. Highly recommend.”
About: I have owned an animal since I was a kid. I have had 3 dogs Have done dog sitting for my neighbors and dog walking. I have also volunteered at the humane society and worked at Cherokee kennels. I love animals when I got my dogs they were scared and they became my shadows I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pups and kitties. After work and on weekends. I play with and feed and walk my dog and give cuddles I also walk and give treats and pets to my neighbors dog almost daily.
“Jennifer stayed with our dog and two cats for a few hours while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with, asked important questions about what our animals needed, was timely, and flexible with our changing schedules. Our animals were comfortable in her presence, and didn't seem to miss us at all when we got home. We would definitely recommend Jennifer as a pet sitter.”
“Once again, another fabulous stay. My old gal is comfortable with Phillip, we always get great pictures of her having fun. Once again, Phillip took great care of everyone and the house and we will be back!”
“Sarah was so great with Hamm and made sure he received all the attention he needed! It was our first time leaving for the weekend since we got Hamm, and it was a comfort knowing Hamm was well taken care of while we were gone. She made sure to send all the cute pics of Hamm and was great to communicate with. Will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Tucker was amazing — he took great care of my fur baby and provided pics regularly AND he was gracious and unflappable in the face of some unforeseen challenges. Flexible, great communicator, and left the house cleaner than he found it. Great with following directions and proactively taking care of all the things — he even noticed the light on the automatic feeder and refilled it before I even messaged him about the notification I’d received. Perhaps best of all, he saw AJ for the loving, playful kitty that he is—so I knew AJ was feeling comfortable and that he was in good, kind hands. Would definitely recommend to others and would be glad to have his help again!”
“Ashley did a great job pet sitting for Tallee! She has been having seizures and Ashely was confident and willing to stay with her at my home. It really helped me enjoy my time away without worrying too much, knowing she was there with Tallee. I'm so happy to have her help!”
“Amanda was terrific. She provided great communication during her stay and I really appreciated the daily photos and reports. She was great with my dogs. She is very warm and friendly and I enjoyed the interaction.”
“Trinity was absolutely fantastic! Great communication and my pup adored her. I did not worry at all while we were away (and I usually do!). Will definitely be using her in the future and highly recommend her to others. Thanks so much, Trinity!”
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs for the past 8 years and have been walking dogs even longer. I currently pet sit and walk dogs (and cats!) for several families in my area. I’m responsible, flexible, and love animals of every breed and size. I’m in school and also work part time. Flexible schedule, please reach out for current availability. Im happy to find a time that works best! I’m attentive, reliable, and always put safety first. I follow pet parents’ instructions closely and make sure every walk or visit is calm, safe, and stress-free.
“Travis is truly remarkable! We arranged a meet and greet where he invested time in getting to know our dog. He made sure to understand Remy's needs and ensured a perfect match. Travis went above and beyond by agreeing to house and Dog sit for 8 days. During his stay, Remy not only had the pleasure of regular walks but also relished the companionship at home. It's evident that Travis provided a level of care that exceeded our expectations. Our home was left in pristine condition, and to top it off, our neighbors were quick to compliment Travis on his friendly demeanor. Remy, our Husky German Shepherd Rescue, is eagerly anticipating his next stay with Travis. It's heartening to see such a positive connection between them. Travis has proven to be more than just a sitter; he's become a trusted companion for Remy. We're grateful to have found such a reliable and caring individual for our beloved pet.”
“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Elizabeth. She was so diligent about following Gus's routine, so great about keeping us updated on how things were going, and above all SO kind and understanding of our pups needs as a spicy/reactive dog. She left me completely at ease and able to relax on our trip. I am so glad we've found her and that our baby has someone he will not just be comfortable with, but excited to spend time with while we are gone!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 854 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stone. 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 Stone 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 Stone 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 Stone 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
