About: I’ve always grown up with having a dog in the house, and was asked my family and friends to feed, walk, and play with their pets (mostly dogs and cats)! I’m currently working part time, meaning I have a bunch of free time on my hands to keep your pup company. Even if you need someone just to pop in for a few minutes or take a long walk I’m your gal. I’m always aware of my surroundings and make sure the pup can become comfortable with me when I meet them! I will also ask additional questions in case I need extra clarification
“Andy is the best pet sitter any pet parent can ask for. We had to go out of the country for two weeks, the longest we’ve been away from home and pet. Andy took care of our home and looked after our cat during the entire time, playing with her, keeping her engaged and sending us constant updates and pictures of her. By the end of the stay the two had bonded which was really surprising to us considering our cat gets nervous when we leave. Highly recommend Andy and we’ll definitely want him over for any of our future pet sitting needs.”
“Jodi always spends so much time with the fur kids and does a great job every time. We love the communication and feel she takes such great care of the fur kids but also the house. She pays attention to our requests and is such a joy to have sit for us!”
“Maggie was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with from start to finish, sent photos every day, and was very attentive to our dog. We felt completely comfortable knowing our home and pet were in such good hands. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”
About: Hi there, I’m Chris! I’ve had some kind of pet in my life ever since I was little, from cats to dogs to aquatic acquaintances! I currently have two cats that bring me so much happiness. I’ve been my friend’s and family’s go to pet sitter for many years due to my obvious love of pets and animals. I’ve taken care of all sizes of dogs and of all ages, as well as mixed species pet families. I establish bonds with the animals I care for which can sometimes make it hard to say goodbye. I adore puppies due to their excitable nature and high energy! Cats have a special place in my heart because of the memories I share with the cats I’ve had but if you were to ask me if I was a cat or dog person; I’d say, “Why can’t you be both?” LGBTQIA+ friendly I graduated from college with a degree in anthropology and am now back in my hometown working a part-time contract job. My work schedule is very flexible so with enough time’s notice I can work any request into it. I am typically free to feed and walk pets in the morning and evening, as typical schedules go. Please let me know if there are any special requests or needs for your animal! I understand the importance of an animals happiness and mental state. I am very much used to taking care of pets in other’s houses and will follow the rules of the house perfectly. I have house sat in Kosher households before so I am familiar with the importance of following set rules. I am okay with pets that sleep on the bed with the owner or having to crate up a pet for the night. I am a private person and often keep to myself; I don’t cause a ruckus! I keep things nice and tidy just like the saying goes, “a place for everything and an everything in its place.”
“Jacob was very responsive and a great pet sitter! Our rescue dog is shy and a bit difficult around new people but he was able to manage her well and was patient while she warmed up to him. We highly recommend him!”
“Parke was great with our two dogs and with us. He was responsive, timely, responsible, and professional. He sent photos every day and sommunciated with us as needed. We returned to a clean, orderly house and two happy, healthy dogs. I would definitely book with Parke again.”
“Krystle very lovingly cared for my puppies and was soooo patient with their potty training! She was an excellent houseguest--brought in our mail and packages, brought in our garbage cans, and washed her own linens and puppies laundry before our return. She sent daily pics and updates assuring us the puppies were getting exercised, cared for, and cuddled. The house and puppies were in excellent condition on our arrival. Thank you so much, Krystle; you made our vacation extra enjoyable!”
“Kathryn was amazing with our 2 year old golden! She took her on multiple hikes and walks and gave her lots of snuggles. Sent photos and updates everyday! She took wonderful care of our home and it was so tidy and clean when we got back! She will definitely be our go to for Kona going forward!”
“We cannot recommend Yan highly enough. She takes her job seriously. She was very communicative with us while we were away via texts and pics. We could tell the dogs warmed up to her immediately. The house was immaculate when we returned. We’ve already booked her for our next getaway. Five stars!”
“Tania was so wonderful with our boy. She is clearly very experienced with dogs and knows to ask all the right questions for information that we forgot to provide. She was also incredibly mindful of our space and easy to communicate with.”
“Mariia and Ethan were great! Excellent communicators, happy and well exercised pup and a clean house upon return. You couldn’t ask for anything more. They are responsive and responsible. We will be using them again!”
“Anjali house sat for a week and took special care of all my kitties. One had recently been diagnosed with pancreatitis, so she had to keep a close eye on her to make sure she was eating okay and not stealing the kittens food. She sent lots of sweet pictures and kept me up to date each day. She also took great care of the house. Highly recommend.”
“Adrienne was wonderful with our two dogs! Her calm energy was a great fit for our pups, who need a loving and quiet home. I could tell immediately upon our first meeting that she was a kind and compassionate person, which put us at ease. She sent us cute videos and updates, which were fun to get. Our house was immaculate when we returned home, too. Highly recommend Adrienne!”
“Connor is a total love bug and my pets immediately warmed to him. His ability to take all my pets on, including my Australian bearded dragon, and keep them happy, made me feel confident that I would love for him to return. He stayed at my house and left it immaculate. Highly recommend this gem of a pet sitter to anyone.”

Krystle was on time, communicative, and overall wonderful! She took great care of our pup, who typically isn’t great with other dogs, but Krystle was able to integrate Navi into her hiking packs- Navi got exercise, socialization, and had a lot of fun!!! Cannot wait to have Navi stay with Krystle again.
Anjali house sat for a week and took special care of all my kitties. One had recently been diagnosed with pancreatitis, so she had to keep a close eye on her to make sure she was eating okay and not stealing the kittens food. She sent lots of sweet pictures and kept me up to date each day. She also took great care of the house. Highly recommend.
Gretchen couldn’t have been better with Rocky and Moose! From the moment she met them, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs, and they absolutely adored her in return. She kept us updated throughout her stay with regular check-ins, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was always quick to respond and easy to communicate with, and we never had to wonder how the dogs were doing. When we came home, Rocky and Moose were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Will book again!
Sarah took care of our house and animals and did a fantastic job! She was super communicative, shared photos and updates regularly and our animals seemed to love her. She also left the house at least as clean as when she arrived. We look forward to her taking care of our animals in the future.
Heather is always amazing both as a pet sitter and house sitter. I have hired her multiple times and will continue to do so for as long as she lets me.:) my pets love her, I can tell they are well taken care of, I get great updates about them and she goes above and beyond in terms of taking care of the house. I could not ask for anyone better to stay with my pets. I recommend her without reservation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Strawberry on Rover is $97.68 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,505 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Strawberry. 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 Strawberry 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 Strawberry 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 Strawberry 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.
