“Haleigh did a wonderful job! Her communication was outstanding. From our introductory meeting a week prior to leading up to the overnight care of a dogs she remained in constant contact with me. Our home and dogs received excellent care.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and hands-on care, I’m experienced with it all—including helping with feeding, hydration, and bathroom needs. I’m a true animal lover and go above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently working full time but am available during weekends at anytime, anytime before 9 am, and anytime after 5 pm. I'm usually up by 4:30 am so I can start the day early. I can watch any dog at your home whether or not you have a fenced in area. I currently don't have my own space I live in apartments so it is limited but not totally unavailable
“Emily was absolutely amazing ! We received several pictures and videos a day, took the babies on trips. She made leaving them so much easier than I thought. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.”
“Kayla was a delight to work with. She was dependable, stayed in great communication throughout our travels. Zippy was in great shape when we returned. Kayla had to maneuver a couple house issues and did so with understanding and helpfulness. I will hire her again.”
“I have never been happier than when Momo came over and took care of all of our beautiful animals. She kept the house lovely and everybody was just so happy and safe and comfortable when we got home. It was great!!”

“I was out of town from Sunday through Thursday. I was a little nervous about a stranger watching my pets. But she really came through. She communicates right away and I came home to a clean house and happy pets. I would definitely use her again.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, both professionally and personally. I worked at Shelley Drive Animal Clinic for four years, where I cared for dogs and cats by administering medications, feeding, cleaning kennels and litter boxes, monitoring their health, and ensuring they were comfortable and well cared for. Outside of work, I have a farm where I care for my horse and two dogs, giving me hands-on experience with animals of different sizes and personalities. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and am currently pursuing my master’s degree in Animal Science. Whether your pet needs playtime, medication, or extra patience and attention, you can trust that they will receive compassionate, reliable, and knowledgeable care with me. Pet care is woven into my life through work, farm responsibilities, and animal science studies, giving me hands-on experience and compassion for animals each day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I will provide a loving, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels secure while you’re away. Every pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care based on their individual needs and routine. Whether it’s feeding, administering medication, going for walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in compassionate, trustworthy, and capable hands.
“Robbie was fantastic! I knew she would be a perfect fit from the moment my fur babies met her. They instantly were drawn to her. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Robbie for taking such great care of my babies and my house.”

I will make sure that the pets are fed on a schedule, and fresh water is provided.
“Kimberly was a life saver. Our regular sitter was unavailable which left us scrambling to find another sitter last minute. Kimberly was able to meet with very little notice and the dogs loved her immediately. She took great care of our Great Danes and did everything we asked. I would recommend.”
“Our dog requires a special diet and takes medicine twice a day. Carly did a great job taking care of her. She also left our cottage in good shape! I will definitely use her again.”
“With short notice Andrea was able to help us, it was fantastic! My babies, Tucker and Elimae were well taken care of and enjoyed their time with Andrea. Will definitely have use her services again”
About: Hi! I’m Rachel, a nursing student with 9 years of pet care experience and a huge soft spot for animals. I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities—from high-energy pups who need lots of playtime to shy or anxious pets who need a calmer, more patient approach. I’m a pet owner myself, so I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your animals with someone new. My goal is to make that as easy as possible for both you and your pet. I’m big on following routines, paying attention to the little details, and sending plenty of photo updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m comfortable with: • Dogs and cats of all sizes and ages • Puppies and young, energetic pets • Shy, anxious, or slower-to-warm-up animals • Feeding and medication routines • Walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection • Multiple-pet households • Keeping a close eye on changes in behavior, appetite, or energy My nursing background has made me especially attentive, dependable, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. I take pet safety seriously, but I also want your pet to have fun and feel genuinely loved while you’re away. Whether your pet wants long walks, endless fetch, couch cuddles, or someone to simply sit nearby until they feel comfortable, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’ll care for them the way I’d want someone to care for my own. 🐾 I’d love to meet you and your pets and learn all of their little routines, quirks, and favorite things! I’m currently in college full-time. I have recently left my full time job to make more time for schooling. My days mostly involve massive amounts of studying, but in between that I am needing to fill my time with taking care of furry friends. I do not offer pet care at my home, but I do have two cats who think they are dogs. One named Sylvester Stallone and Storm.
“Rachel was wonderful with our cats and took care of our home while we were away for a week. The cats warmed up to her quickly and remained calm with her. Rachel left our home clean and followed instructions. A situation arose at the house while she was at work. She acted quickly and went above and beyond to take care of our babies. Rachel was very communicative and sent pictures each day. We would highly recommend her!”
About: ****Why are my prices lower than most sitters?**** I am looking to establish myself here, get regular customers and of course earn 5 star reviews! So take advantage of my rates before they go up! I’m Matt and I am a medically retired Los Angeles County Sherriff Officer. I am available most days and I do my best to be very flexible. I am obviously a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to four wonderful dogs—from a gentle Great Dane mix to a spirited little but old Chiweenie, an old grump Beagle mix, and a high energy talk your leg off Blue Healer mix. Living with such a fun and diverse pack has given me a deep understanding of dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. But my heart doesn’t stop at dogs—I’ve also had the joy of sharing my life with cats, and I truly enjoy working with them too. i have had several cats in the past and know they have a wide range of personalities and quirks. Whether your cat is outgoing, shy, playful, or independent, I know how to earn their trust and make them feel safe and loved in your absence. Whether you have a couch-loving kitty, a high-energy pup, or a full fur family, I bring calm, caring, and attentive support tailored to your pet’s needs. What you can expect from me: -Consistent, on-time care with thoughtful updates and plenty of photos -Genuine affection, one-on-one attention, and enrichment activities -Experience handling pets with unique routines, medication needs, or senior care -A calm and respectful presence in your home, plus basic household tasks as needed I know how hard it can be to leave your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own—because that’s what I’d want for mine. Whether you’re away for the weekend or an extended trip, I’ll make sure your pets are happy, well cared for, and loved. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to connect and see how I can help! My furry fuzz balls are my family. I’m already up early feeding, walking, and playing with my own four dogs, and I make time throughout the day to check in, interact, and keep them comfortable. Because animals are already such an important part of my everyday routine, caring for your pets fits right in. Whether it’s morning drop-ins, midday play breaks, or evening check-ins, I structure my schedule around what your pets need most. I’m organized, flexible, and always make sure each visit is calm, unrushed, and full of attention—just like I would want for my own pets. I am a medically retired Los Angeles County Sherriff Officer so you can feel at ease that I am respectful of your home, property and your fur babies at all times. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is maintaining their normal routine and environment to reduce stress and keep them happy, loved and secure. I follow your instructions closely—from feeding and medication schedules to favorite toys, walking routes, and cuddle preferences—so your pet gets consistent, personalized care. Each visit is more than just a check-in. I take time to connect with your pet, offer affection, play, and enrichment, and keep an eye on their behavior and well-being. I’m calm, respectful, and tidy in your space, and I ALWAYS keep you updated with photos and notes so you feel confident and connected while you're away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 179 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Swan. 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 Swan 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 Swan 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 Swan 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
