“My pets love Brandy. She took great care of everything and it was so nice to go on vacation and not have to worry about my home and animals. They were loved and spoiled while I was away.”
“Whitney did a great job caring for our two small dogs and providing daily photos of the dogs looking well cared for and loved. Whitney returned to our home beyond her scheduled time to care for our dogs as our flight was delayed. This was much appreciated and went above and beyond her commitment.”
“Rachel is fantastic! She responded quickly from my first inquiry. We have two large and overly friendly spoiled rotten labs. She is experienced with large dogs and is able to walk them with ease! She gives them lots of attention. One of our dogs is needy and a bit anxious and he is very comfortable with her. She sends updates and pics to relieve my anxiety too! Highly recommend Rachel!!!”
“Alexandra was great with our high energy pup and our two indoor cats. She stayed in our home for a week while we traveled internationally. She gave great updates, helped around the house, and sent pictures frequently. We will definitely use her again and recommend her highly!”
“Elizabeth is very responsive. She took great care of my nervous pup and cat on short notice. She left the house cleaner than it was when she arrived, I think! We've already booked our next sit with Elizabeth and I look forward to having great peace of mind while we are gone.”
“Michael is an incredibly reliable and respectful pet sitter! He always leaves my place sparkling and spends a ton of time with my boy Apollo. He is also incredibly knowledgeable thanks to his experience working in a vet clinic. I will always recommend Michael!”
“Nicole has been such an amazing sitter we went to seven feathers for my grandma’s birthday and she just amazes me she is just the best person to have at ur house watch your animals I would recommend her to anybody!! I’m so happy I never had to get a pet sitter but we were just blown away with her and her service the way she just handled everything was amazing! 100/100 couldn’t be happier with her service!! 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ she’s just so uplifting and has such great energy thank you Nicole for everything”
“This was my first Pet Sitter experience with Bradley and what I think stands out the most to me about Bradley is that he genuinely cared about and for our dog, Huxley, while we were away. I know a lot of people say that they love animals, but you could see the authenticity in Bradley as he greeted and played with Huxley. I highly recommend Bradley”
“Connie is very kind and patient with our dog Rue. Being a senior dog, he comes with many needs that other dogs do not. She took everything in stride and gave him lots of love & attention. We received many updates throughout the day which helps if you’re feeling anxious about leaving your pet. We highly recommend her.”
“Jaedyn has home-sat our 3 little dogs twice now and can’t say enough good things about him. Most importantly, I know I can feel confident in their safety. He’s super fast to communicate and punctual. And also, this is a person who the dogs really just love to see. A++”
“Sandor's experience dog-sitting Raphael was nothing short of amazing. Throughout their time together, they forged a bond that was built on trust, love, and endless fun. Through the pictures Sandor sent, I could see that Raphael was filled with joy and happiness, creating lasting memories that will undoubtedly be cherished by both of them. Thank-you, Sandor!”
“Kayla was great. We never ahad to worry about anything. She checked in often and sent lots of cute pictures. She even picked up the back yard after the dog and stripped the bedding.”
“Annie is an absolute gem! She went above and beyond and took amazing care of Willow ❤️ Within minutes of arriving, Annie sent us an adorable picture of Willow snuggled on her lap. She sent updates throughout our trip and we felt so relaxed knowing Willow was in such great hands. Would book with Annie again in a heartbeat!”
“Emily watched our senior dogs for 4 days and it was great to have her help! She provided updates and they were clearly comfortable and well cared for. We will keep working with Emily and recommend her!”
“Abram cared for our pups and house like they were his own. He clarified care to ensure he did things like our labs were used to and was very respectful. I felt so reassured with him at my house while I was out of town! I highly recommend Abram’s services and will be utilizing his care again in the future 🙌🐾”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tangent on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,115 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tangent. 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 Tangent 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 Tangent 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 Tangent 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
