“Sharon took wonderful care of our Batman. Ensuring he was eating and taking his meds. She provided feedback and was responsive. I feel comfortable with her staying in my home and at ease he will be ok. Thanks again”
“This is the second time Tim has watched our dog, Emory, and I couldn't recommend him more! He's incredibly flexible, easy to communicate with, and truly loves dogs. Emory absolutely loves staying with him, and he and Tim’s dog, Oliver have become the best of friends. Tim kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, and I never had to worry about travel delays because he has always been so accommodating. It's such a relief knowing Emory is safe, happy, and so well cared for.”
“I have had Stephanie watch my dogs twice now, and she is amazing with them! The second round, my senior dog had some unexpected GI issues that Stephanie handled perfectly. Clear communication, very responsive. I will definitely book again!”
“Perri is a fantastic house/dog sitter!!! We received countless photos every day of our dog Murph looking very content, happy, and well taken care of. We would highly recommend Perri!!”
“Ryan was a wonderful companion for our dog Bailey. She played Frisbee and tug with her daily. She communicated with us every day with pictures. I felt very confident that Bailey was well cared for while we were gone. I'm so happy to have found her!”
“Words cannot explain how at peace we were with Gabriella being at our house for 2 weeks and taking care of our fur babies! The boys were well loved and taken care of, the house was spotless and the communication was top notch! Don't hesitate for a single second, she is the best one out there!!”
“Claudia was great as always! She communicated well the entire time, sent updates and photos, and loved on our two dogs like they were her own. Our boys love spending time with her and we love that we can trust Claudia. We will book again with her in the future!”
“Rusul handled a long-term stay in our home with our two dogs with the greatest of ease. Our dogs thrive with her care and our home was well watched after as well!. She kept us well informed with great photos.”
“I haven't needed a sitter in a while, so I was super nervous to leave my pup with someone new for the first time. Cara very quickly eased all of my anxiety. She sent lots of detailed updates and asked questions as they came up. My dog is usually depressed and mopey after I get home, and he seemed just like his usual self - he felt very comfortable and safe with Cara. We will definitely be reaching out for future sittings!”
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our 3 fur babies while we were gone. She kept in contact with us everyday when she was leaving and returning as well as some adorable pictures of them all snuggling together while watching a movie. Lindsey left everything the way she found it and took great care of everything in our home as well. The pups were very happy when we returned home and were not stressed out at all. We will definitely use Lindsey again and highly recommend her.❤️”
“Erica was fantastic. She kept in touch with us frequently with photos for an update on how our pets were doing. She even mentioned the neighborhood pets met on her frequent dog walks. That put our mind at ease while we were away on a 4 day trip. Erica took great care of our Poodle mix, Pepper and our cat Lily. We really appreciated the report card and welcome home by our happy relaxed pet family, when we returned home. It was very obvious that our pets enjoyed her! From her initial meet and greet before our trip to the farewell, our home was well cared for as well as our pets. We were so impressed by her care. We will definitely request to have Erica come back the next time.”
“Katie was exceptional. My dog was a handful and she called me when necessary to work out problems. She gave the appropriate medication when necessary, went out and found her a t-shirt and socks and bought her wipes and medicated oatmeal for itching. The house was in very good condition when I arrived.”
“We usually don’t write reviews for anything, but Mary's exceptional caretaking skills prompted us to take the time to sing her praises. If you’re a detail oriented pet parent who can’t imagine someone would be able to take as great care of your pets as yourself–or your family–this review is for you. We were nervous as this was our first time having someone we’d never met to live in our home and take care of our pets for 10 days while we were out of the country. Mary instantly put every single one of our worries to rest. Mary was able to follow a very detailed daily regimen for our senior (15 year old) German Shepherd & our 2 cats. She let our dog out several times during the day to minimize the risk of any indoor accidents. She stuck to a 3x daily medication schedule, and she gave the pets plenty of love throughout the process. In sticking to our pets daily schedule, she essentially stepped in as an extension of our own caretaking which allowed our pets to feel very comfortable in our absence. Communication was 10/10! She provided daily of updates with pictures and never hesitated to ask a question if something unexpected came up. She also left our home clean and in great shape! We highly recommend Mary for any prospective client!! Thank you so much Mary!!”
“Carolann is an amazing person. We have a puppy who has taken to her quickly. She is beyond patient and caring. She is one of the kindest people i have met. It has been great to have someone trustworthy to be in our home and care for our fur baby. She has made our hectic schedule manageable. Truly a blessing!”
“Alex was amazing. She took care of our dog and cat, both can by a little challenging, and did everything we asked. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for many years and have experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs for friends and family. While my background is stronger with cats, I’m comfortable handling the day-to-day needs of dogs as well, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I make it a priority to carefully follow any instructions regarding feeding, medications, dietary restrictions, routines, or other special care needs. Because I work remotely, I’m also able to spend much more time at home with pets than many sitters can, which means more company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I currently work remotely on a typical Monday–Friday daytime schedule and am able to work from anywhere within the state, which means I can comfortably set up my work-from-home station while house and pet sitting. This allows me to be much more present and attentive throughout the day compared to sitters who may be away for long periods of time. My work is also fairly flexible, allowing me to adjust meetings and tasks as needed to help accommodate feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, and other routine care. Weekends are typically very open for me as well, giving me even more flexibility and availability for your pets’ needs. I currently have two cats of my own: Draco, an 11-year-old part Manx, and Loki, a 6-year-old black American Shorthair. I’ve had both of them since they were kittens, and caring for them has given me years of hands-on experience with maintaining routines, monitoring health, and creating a calm, safe environment for pets. Draco previously needed some extra attention with his weight and diet, and through a consistent feeding routine and focused care, he was able to lose over 10 pounds and maintain a much healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced for me how important consistency, patience, and closely following care instructions can be for pets. Loki is a rescue and can be a little shy at first, so I also understand the importance of giving pets time to adjust, respecting their comfort levels, and helping anxious pets feel safe and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.”

Ryan was AMAZING!! She took such great care of our cat and dog for a week while we were gone. She went the extra mile for us in several ways and always provided excellent communication. I cannot recommend her enough - our pets immediately took to her. We will definitely use her again.
Maya was amazing! She checked in on Joey multiple times throughout the day and was great at updating me with pictures of them playing, going on walks, or just hanging out at the house. She was very trustworthy and did a great job communicating. Joey loved her and was in great spirits when I got home from my trip. I will definitely be rebooking Maya for future pet care.
Clarisa took great care of my 2 senior dogs and one senior cat for a week while I was away for 5 days. She was very sweet my pets, and they were happy and content when I got home as if I had never been gone. Exactly what you hope for! Clarisa was very communicative with me during the trip and sent daily photos of them which is always comforting. I highly recommend her services for your pets!
Isabel took excellent care of our two dogs in our home while we were out of town for a week. I appreciated her check-ins and pictures. She went above and beyond our expectations. Our dogs are not always the easiest to walk and she still walked each of them every day. Thank you!!!
Makayla took care of our older dog and two kitties. She stayed with them while we went on vacation, and she did a wonderful job! We didn’t have to worry, and she took care of them like they were her own. I would definitely ask her to take care of them again.
So grateful for Anna's help this weekend! As always she took great care of our two cats. She stayed at the house with them this time because our older cat is having some balance issues. She is attentive, a great listener and communicator, and provided timely updates with photos. Thanks Anna!
Rhiannon was amazing! She took such great care of our dog, Clifford, while we were overseas — he was clearly happy and well-loved the whole time. She also kept our house just the way we left it, and all of our plants were still alive (which is basically a miracle because I’m really good at killing them 😅). It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands. We’d absolutely have her back again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Taran was wonderful! She is the best dog sitter we've had using Rover. She kept our 5-year old dog happy while we were away for over a week keeping us informed with photos, videos, and brief messages. When we returned our house was just as we left it. We will definitely want to have Taran sit for us again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sunset Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,626 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sunset Hills. 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 Sunset Hills 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 Sunset Hills 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 Sunset Hills 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.
