“Casey was great with our pups! Kept us updated throughout the day, took lots of cute pictures, and even left us a little note with some goodies for the pups for when we got back! The pups both got special attention according to the things they enjoy and that meant a lot to us! They were so excited to see her when she came to sit for us and she was very pleasant to work with. We definitely recommend Casey and are excited to invite her back!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs ranging from a few lbs to 100+ lbs for years! I have also been caring for different types of cats just as long :) Growing up we always had a dog in the house, so that has made me super comfortable to be around them. Whether I’m walking, feeding, cleaning, or administering medication, I am definitely not afraid of the job! I am a proud mama of 2 cats named Archie and Simon. They are my absolute world! I will make sure to give your pets the same care, caution, attention, and love I give my boys! Pet care has always been a passion of mine. In fact, I went to school for it! Although I did not end up pursuing my desire to become a veterinarian, I still try to incorporate that love for animals in my day to day life! I have an extremely flexible work schedule that allows me to almost work fully remote. I would be able to stop over at the house pretty much whenever you need me to. My work set up also allows me to work anywhere if needed. My weekends are almost always open as well! I will always make sure to talk through your expectations to ensure you are comfortable with the nature of each type of visit. I typically would not host any pets in our home. We have a fenced in backyard and several spaces; however, I would not want to put your pet or my cats in an uncomfortable space. At a clients home, I am more than comfortable with backyard access, crate training, cleaning litter boxes, accessing food/water, and any other requirements for the visit! (Totally fine bringing in mail/watering plants!) I will only access the spaces you need me to. I am also fine spending the night if needed. That would be something we could discuss case by case!
“Kendall is fantastic! Responds quickly, shows up on time, and very understanding of my dogs’ quirks. Kendall stayed at our house while we were out of town, and we’re so appreciative of the photos she sent us. I know they enjoyed being at home rather than in a kennel being boarded elsewhere. We will definitely have Kendall watch our pups again.”
“I have a rescue dog, Sadie, that has taken time to heal and trust. Katrina was able to quickly gain Sadie's trust and through out the week give her the love she deserves. Katrina shared photos of Sadie, which allowed me to focus on my work trip, knowing Sadie was being cared for and loved. If you are looking for a sitter to care for your 4 legged family member, give Katrina a chance.”
“Samantha is an amazing pet sitter! She was very responsive sending photos of my pups and updates multiple times a day. I felt completely comfortable having her care for my two dogs. I will absolutely have her come again. Thanks Samantha!!”
About: I own a GSD/Shar Pei Mix named Moose and have learned a lot since rescuing her in 2023. I've been volunteering at local shelters since then, where I care for dogs of varying ages. Earlier this year, I completed a three-month internship with the Penn Vet Working Dog Center where we trained dogs in obedience, agility, scent work, husbandry, and more. I'm currently working part-time and studying to become a dog trainer. So I'm looking for every opportunity to walk and care for dogs of any ages and size to get all the experience I can! I will generally be available after 2pm on weekdays and am flexible on the weekends. I am very laid back and will work with you on whatever works best for walks/letting them out to stretch their legs and have some fun.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for the last 1( years, all over 40lbs. I’m also familiar with dealing with reactive dogs, I was social distancing well before that was a thing 😃. I’ve taken care of my parent’s cat for the last 2 years and I’m comfortable with changing cat litter. I look forward to meeting you and your pups/kittens. I’m currently in school on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, after 5pm. The rest of my schedule is open to provide the service your pet needs. I will always keep safety first, follow all instructions prescribed by the customer, be on-time and provide the service your fur baby needs. In addition, I’m open to any communication that the pet owner requires, phone call, FaceTime or just text message to keep them updated on their pets well-being.
About: **PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING PET/HOUSE SITTING** I want to clarify that I do not typically provide traditional overnight house sitting. Instead, I specialize in drop-in care and can provide multiple visits throughout the day to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. For example, I may visit in the morning, again during the day, and then for a longer evening visit. This works especially well for pets who don't need someone staying overnight but still benefit from consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and care throughout the day. If you're looking for overnight house sitting, I may be open to discussing shorter stays (3 days or less) after a meet & greet, depending on the situation. If you're unsure which option is best for your pets, feel free to reach out! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy caring for all kinds of animals. My experience includes dogs and cats, as well as small pets such as rabbits and other small mammals, reptiles, and horses. I also have hands-on equine experience, including equine bodywork, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm, observant, and responsive with animals of all sizes and temperaments. I follow routines closely—feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter care, habitat care, and all the little details that matter—and I adapt my approach to each animal's personality and needs. Whether your pet is social and energetic, shy and routine-driven, or simply prefers to do their own thing, I meet them where they are. You can expect clear communication and consistent updates while you're away, so you always know your pets are safe and well cared for. I am currently looking to fill in some gaps in my schedule and should be able to accommodate most pet owners and their pet care needs. I follow care instructions closely and treat both your pet and your home with respect and care. Safety, routine, and clear communication are always my priority. If anything comes up or you have questions, I’m easy to reach and will keep you updated while you’re away.
“My husband and I really appreciate the care Melissa gave to our puppy Charlie!! Our puppy is sweet but very energetic and sneaky! She figured out all of his tricks right away!!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was born. My first dog was a 100 pound German Shepard mix, then we got a miniature border collie mix, then a hound, and now we have a one year old german shepard belgian malinois. I have helped train and take care of all of our family dogs and we take our dogs on at least 2 walks a day! I can take care of any type of dog and I will of course love every animal I take care of. I have no problem picking up poop on walks! I would love to help you take care of your Dogs! I am currently a college student at Judson University studying Architecture. I would be able to take care of your pet before 7:45am and I am available during lunch time. I am also volleyball player and practices are normally from 4-6 so I would be able to go over after that. MWF I have class from 1-5 so I wouldn’t be able to go in that time frame and my volleyball games are normally Tuesday and Thursday nights which I could go over after those. I have a fenced in yard at my house but I also have energetic dogs so I take them on walks every day twice a day. They both love to play fetch and obviously they love to go on their daily walks. I can do anything from just letting them out and throwing the ball for them to walking around the block or even a mile. I am flexible with what kind of service your pet may need!
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a household with multiple animals, so I’ve always had a deep love and respect for them. I now have my own little fur baby and truly understand the responsibility and care our pets deserve as part of the family. With me, your pet will be in loving and attentive care, always treated with patience, affection, and respect. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and keeping pets company are activities I genuinely look forward to. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. I make sure they are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following their normal routines as closely as possible. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy level, eating habits, and overall comfort so I can recognize when something seems different.
“Taylor is the absolute sweetest, and best sitter I could ask for. When she first came for a meet and greet, she was warm and friendly, even played Rock, Paper, Scissors with my daughter. She sent pictures of my puppies, gave them loves and treats, and kept in close contact. I will absolutely be booking Taylor in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,651 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sutton. 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 Sutton 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 Sutton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sutton 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
