“Lindsey was awesome! Incredibly communicative and sent lots of sweet photos of our gals. They were wonderfully cared for and were very happy. Would absolutely book again!”
“I can’t say enough about Brianna! This was a perfect experience for us. We were out of town for our daughter’s wedding and we didn’t have to worry about our furry friends at all. She kept in touch with us with pictures a couple of times a day. The pups looked super happy. She even touched up the house a bit before she left which was totally unexpected! Highly recommend Brianna and we will definitely be booking her for future travel!”
“We had Mollie stay with our 2 dobermans while we were out of town for a long weekend. We did a meet and greet before hand to review everything. We got lots of photos and updates. Came home to happy dogs. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Hannah did a fantastic job watching our two dogs and our cat while we were on vacation! She was extremely attentive and communicated throughout, always sending photos and updates. Our one boy is super anxious, so we really appreciate him being able to stay in his own space. She really made things easy for us and gave us peace of mind!”
“We could not have had a better experience working with Jarett. It was our first long trip away from Oliver, and he went above and beyond not only to make sure Oliver was taken care of, but that we were updated often. Thanks to Jarett, we were able to relax on vacation and come home to a happy pup and our house exactly as we left it.”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
“Makala is everything you want in a pet-sitter. Prompt to respond, extremely accommodating on hours and way underpriced given her experience and expertise. More importantly than all these things, however, is that Rover is not a side hustle for her so much as a natural extension of her every day. She's professionally trained to care for others' pets and so clearly enjoys doing so. Speaking from my experience, she's very good at it, too.”
“Sage is an exceptional sitter, and goes above and beyond when caring for your pets/home! We can be really anxious about leaving our pets when we travel, but this was the most at ease we have ever felt. Not once did we worry about our cats/dog while away. Sage provided us photos and daily updates, letting us know how each pet was doing. Our pets had excellent care and plenty of quality time. Not only did we come home to safe, happy animals (most importantly), we also came home to a really clean house! Sage helped with a number of house tasks (from taking out trash, picking up waste in the backyard, laundry, and more). We really could not have asked for a better sitter, and will definitely be hiring Sage again in the future.”
“Bethany was great with my two yorkie boys. I was hesitant to leave them with someone new, but she took great care of them and updated me with photos and messages throughout her sit. Will definitely be utilizing her services again!”
“Our 13 and 14 y/o high-maintenance kitties were so delighted with Kristie's care. They took to her right away which is definitely not common. She communicated with us well and understood our action-packed kitty schedule. We felt at ease while we were away for a weekend trip with Kristie at the helm!”
“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”
“Natalie was honestly one of the best sitters I’ve ever had on Rover, hands down. She came to meet my fur babes twice before the stay, which immediately put me at ease. She’s just really thoughtful and has such a calm, natural way with animals, you can tell right away she knows what she’s doing and genuinely cares. While I was away, she kept me updated and everything felt easy and stress free the whole time. At one point I even had a perishable package delivered and she took care of it without me even asking, which just says a lot about how attentive she is. But honestly, the biggest thing is how much my pets liked her. That’s always the real test, and they were totally comfortable with her. I’d absolutely have her stay with them again in a heartbeat.”
“Claire was wonderful and I highly recommend her! My dog needs some extra attention and Claire went above and beyond, would definitely have her house and dog sit again!!”
“I am very happy I chose Mamie to dogsit my Rosie for my week long vacation. She sent regular updates about Rosie’s mood, activities and cute little anecdotes, as well as lots of pictures. Besides the updates Mamie was quick to reply to messages and was even so kind as to pick up a refill that Rosie needed. I would definitely rebook her :)”
“Shyann was wonderful and patient with my skeptical rescue dog. She was communicative and sent pictures daily, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy going out of town for a concert. I’m definitely rebooking her again.”
“Taylor was amazing! We were so thankful during our trip. Our flight was delayed and she was flexible and helped ensure our dogs were cared after! When we got hour our dogs were happy and clearly cared for! Highly recommend!”

Moon was absolutely amazing. We have 5 dogs and a cat. She took great care of our pets and made sure that they had plenty of play time, cuddle time, and of course, treats! She always sent plenty of photos every day and communicated with us throughout our vacation. All of our pets took to her right away and they were very happy and healthy when we returned home from our trip. We will definitely be using Moo. On our next trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,448 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sturgeon. 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 Sturgeon 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 Sturgeon 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 Sturgeon 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sturgeon. On Rover:

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.
