“I have never felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies behind. Dakota made sure that they were well cared for and comfortable. She kept me updated and worked hard to make the transition as easy as possible. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer has been an absolute blessing! She is always on time, communicates exceptionally well, and keeps me updated with pictures and messages while I’m away. She is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about my dogs. My dogs are not the easiest to care for, so finding someone they are comfortable with has always been a challenge. Jennifer has been incredibly patient with them, and they do so well in her care. Knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved gives me complete peace of mind every time I leave. She has truly become my go-to pet sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Jennifer is the one!”
“Our dog has so much anxiety and Kathleen was amazing with him! He warmed up to her with her patience and it was a great weekend! She kept us updated and in turn we had a great time away, not worrying at all. She communicates well and quickly, she kept our house clean and in great condition. We would love to have her stay and take care of our dog again. Definitely recommend her to anyone else looking.”
“This was our first experience with Bryan. Throughout the whole process Bryan was extremely professional and caring. He made it a point to get down on our pet's level to help them feel comfortable. He sent several photos and videos which helped us enjoy our time away. We will defiantly be reaching out to Bryan again for future house sitting needs!”
“Lindsay was great with my Finn and Ella. They loved her right away. Having them watched in our home makes going away possible. This was very last minute and I appreciate that we were able to go..”
About: Working at a Veterinary Hospital before going to college absolutely solidified my love for animals and caring for them! I love learning their unique traits and I can’t wait to bond with your pets! I’m currently a full time student at JMU but I’m looking to add pet sitting into my routine! With warm weather coming up, I know how important it is to find a reliable sitter for vacations! I can’t wait to meet your pets! Caring for your pets in the safety of your home is important to me! Allowing them to show me around and playing with their favorite toys is so exciting!
About: I've taken care of neighborhood cats/dogs for over 10 years. I grew up taking care of both cats and dogs in my own home as well. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and cleaning up after pets. I have also volunteered at various animal shelters throughout the years. I currently have a flexible schedule during the summer months and am available most weekends and weekdays. I work on Thursdays and Fridays, but I am available to care for your pet in the evenings on these particular days. I would love to connect with you to find a schedule that works best for you and your pet! I have experience walking, feeding, crating, and cleaning up after pets in the home. I'm not currently looking to house pets in my own home!
“Allison was amazing with our pittie mix rescue who was a stray for 2 years and can be anxious and skittish. She immediately loved Allison (more so than she even loves us, I was joking with my husband) and even went to sleep while Allison was watching her which is unheard of for our dog. Highly recommend, Allison is truly a dog whisperer!”
About: I am flexible, reliable and passionate about the best care for pets! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends soon! Thank you! I currently work as a bather and I have some free time that I would love to occupy by taking care of your beloved pets! I can feed, walk, and bathe your fur babies to make sure they are happy and in the best health they can be at all times!
About: Hi there! I’m someone who truly believes dogs make life better. I’ve had dogs in my life for 25 years, and while my own two pups are with me part time, my house feels so much fuller—and happier—when they’re around. That’s why I’m excited to open my home and my time to care for your dog as if they were my own. I’m recently divorced and building a new chapter for myself, one that centers around doing what I love: spending time with dogs. I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day—walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just good company when they want to relax. I have extensive experience with large dogs, but I’m comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. I pride myself on being highly attentive, reliable, and communicative—I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. If you’re looking for someone caring, responsible, and genuinely dog-loving, I’d be honored to be that person for you and your pet. I am an early riser who works from home so meeting the needs of your pet will be an easy addition to my current routine. I have a fully fenced back yard and a finished basement that allows plenty of space inside and out for your pet to explore, play and feel safe. I have a large dog crate if that is your preference but my dogs sleep on the couches.
“Alley house-sat and looked after our dog when we went out of town for a last minute trip - she was super responsive and kept us in the loop while we were gone. Everything went great! We would definitely recommend Alley and use her again :)”
About: I am experienced in all types of pets from rabbits and snakes to large dogs and cows. From exotic to every day I've cared for a wide variety. I am currently work a nine to five weekdays so my schedule is open for afternoons and evenings week days and I am available any time weekends. I have experience in crate training, potty training, and leash training my own dogs and am very compassionate for dogs that might need extra care and attention.
“Louis was great with our high energy Labs he sat with for the week.They were always happy in the pictures he sent . House and yard were just as we left it. Thanks Louis for a amazing job!”
“Corinne was great. She was punctual and very attentive to Quigley, our dog. She kept us informed during her stay. Corinne sent lots of pictures and updates. We will most definitely be using her again. Thank you Corinne for taking excellent care of our baby.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 7 and have been babysitting since I was 14. I know how to keep dogs entertained and know the signs of what they want and don’t want. I am currently in college and I do musical theatre! I have time to care for your pups on the weekends and occasionally during the week depending what my rehearsal schedule looks like. If requested I can crate your pup! I am also good on time management so if you have a specific time that you want your pup to eat I will get it done!
About: I grew up helping take care my two wonderful family dogs as well as occasionally dog-sat for friends and family. Throughout college I had multiple jobs dog-sitting ranging from checking in occasionally and providing meals to full house sitting. I work full time but am typically available outside of standard working hours. I am available to stay with your pup during the week and if local can give potty breaks every ~4 hrs. I am very familiar with caring for other’s pets and work well with instruction to take care of your family exactly how you would normally. I’m happy to provide updates while you’re away on all the fun your furry friend is having.
“Kate is the best (just ask my dogs)... she was communicative, friendly, asked all the right questions and the week went flawlessly. It was a huge relief to know she was with my pups while I was away. I highly recommend her.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Street
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,472 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Street. 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 Street 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 Street 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 Street 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.
