“Lauren was phenomenal!! She took great care of our fur babies and even left the house in better shape than she found it! She sent us regular updates, responded quickly to communication, and our babies seemed very well cared for upon our return. I can't say enough how grateful we were to have her and will absolutely be requesting her care again!”
“Chas was a wonderful house-sitter and pet watcher! We returned home to super relaxed, happy pets and a clean home...and communication throughout our trip was exactly what we were looking for in order to rest assured that all was well. What a treat to go away and know that your pets and home are in good hands! Thank you, Chas!”
“Stevie stayed in my home with Miley and Parker for four days and took incredible care of both of them. She made sure they received all of their medications, kept me updated with messages and photos, and gave them so much love and attention. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and a house that was just as I left it. Knowing they were so well cared for gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I'll be booking Stevie every chance I get... so get in line! 😊”
About: Ive taken care of animals since I was 11. Ive had animals that range from hamsters to horses and alpacas. I have experience medicating, bathing and general care. I have worked with horses in a professional capacity. I am currently between chapters in my life. I'll have plenty of time to pop in and help out! Cant wait to meet all the lovely darlings! Understanding animal behavior is a huge part of my care. Different species, individual animals, all have various needs and methods of communication. I do my best to follow all instructions from you, while also respecting each critter's individual communications in the moment.

About: Hi, I'm Carley or most know me as Angelina! I have been caring for furry fiends all my life! I have had a several goldens, yorkies, and my current little guy is a german short haired pointer! I absolutely love getting to play, walk, or snuggle with any pet of any size! I definitely believe the saying that a dog is a mans best friend and believe that we should treat our animals as such.I as a fellow dog mom understand how important it is to have someone you can trust watching a member of your family. I believe spending just a few hours with an pet (or human, in their case) can change the whole mood for the day. I am fairly flexible and willing to work with you to make sure your family member is cared for! From walking and check ins, to pet sitting, or even spending your day out with your four legged friend, I know your little friend will be loved and happy in my care. I feel comfortable feeding, playing with, walking, and even taking your pets on outings! My work schedule is a set one, so I can stop by before work, during my lunch break, or after work and anytime during the weekends. If you need something a little bit different let me know and I am happy to accommodate your needs! I have a huge yard that all dogs love to run in and I live in a private neighborhood that is perfect for walking in.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sugar Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 233 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sugar Valley. 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 Sugar Valley 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 Sugar Valley 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 Sugar Valley 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 Sugar Valley. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
