“Jessica was absolutely amazing! We were nervous to leave our pup for the first time (we were away for 8 days)-she made us feel so comfortable and at ease right away. Every day we received at least 10-20 pictures of our dog Artie. She treated him like her family:) He enjoyed walks/hikes and even introduced him to her dog and they immediately became best friends. I will definitely use her in the future. Thank you so much Jessica!!!”
“Always the best but this trip she went above and beyond! When we lost power she stayed right there with our lil guy and kept us updated the whole time. We are lucky to have you, KiAnna!”
About: Hi! I’m Abby, and I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was young. From tiny pups to large breeds, energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, I have experience with dogs of every size, age, and personality. I’ve spent years dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, always treating each dog with the same love and attention I’d give my own. Whether we’re out for a walk or enjoying some extra playtime, your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. As a PA student in my clinical year, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and check-ins at various times during the day. I provide care for your pet in the comfort of their own home, sticking to their routines and providing walks, play time, or cuddles. I’m always happy to send a photo of your pet so you know they’re happy and safe while you’re away!
“Carol is a true dog lover and responsible pet sitter. She took excellent care of our 12.5 year old guy and the skittish 1.5 year old we adopted about 6 months ago. Carol made a difficult first time away from the new pup go as smoothly as possible. She earned our dogs' trust, which should make future stays even easier.”
“Elissa is the BEST! My poor girl was very anxious and confused when she first came over, and she handled her so well. She was patient and loving, and I appreciated that she kept me informed. An added bonus- When I got home, the house was spotless and looked like I never left! Your fur babies will be in amazing hands with Elissa!”
“To say Melissa went above and beyond would be an understatement! She showed up for us on short notice and took good care of our pups on Thanksgiving! Thank you Melissa, Tex and Brady felt the love and we loved the piece of mind knowing they were in good hands!”
“Tashani was literally the best -- she was super communicative and sent through daily updates about Libby & Cinder! We got back from a week-long trip to a clean house, happy animals, and a flourishing garden. We'll definitely work with Tashani for future trips!!”
“We had Chris come do an in-home stay for the first time with our reactive pitbull and he crushed it! Reactive dogs are not the easiest to find sitters for and Chris was very accommodating with setting up a meet and great before hand and had even done his own research ahead of time to make sure he was knowledgeable before going through the introduction process. Our dog warmed up to him right away and she was able to immediately identify him as a safe person since he was so calm and easy going with her. When it came time for him to stay, all that was needed was a quick reminder and they were best buds for the rest of the weekend. He quickly learns her quirks. He sent daily pictures and updates. Then when we returned, our mail was stacked on the counter and the house was very neat, just as we left it, which is always appreciated when someone stays in your home. During the introduction stage he even requested to be shown where our cleaning supplies were and when our trash gets taken out. Chris was not only an excellent dog sitter, but a great house sitter as well! We are frequent travelers and will definitely be continuing to use Chris.”
About: I love dogs!! I have had several rescue dogs. I am newer to cats but I also love cats. I will happily play with your dog, brush them, feed them treats, and take them for long walks. I’m generally free in the mornings, evenings, and on weekends. I'm happy to do ad hoc walks and dog sitting or have a more consistent/weekly pet care schedule. I live in a clean, dog-friendly house with a yard outside. There is space for both small dogs and large dogs. I also live in a neighborhood with many other dogs that like to socialize on walks!
“Kayla did a wonderful job watching our dog for the weekend. She communicated often and sent update pictures which gave us good peace of mind. She left the house clean and tidy and we returned to a happy pup! Can’t thank her enough!”
“Chris took such good care of our dogs. During our initial meeting, he asked follow up questions so that he clearly understood the feeding routine. He asked other questions that let us know he read the profile ahead of time. His daily updates provided excellent information and great photos. We are so happy for what Chris did. We highly recommend him. We will always check his availability when we are going out of town.”
“I truly cannot recommend her enough! She went above and beyond every single day and cared for Benji like he was her own. She even stepped in during an unexpected situation at home and made sure not only Benji, but my daughter and our cat were safe and taken care of. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals and people are unmatched. I feel incredibly lucky to have found someone I trust so much with my home and my family. We absolutely adore her and will continue booking her! ❤️🐾”

Tashani was literally the best -- she was super communicative and sent through daily updates about Libby & Cinder! We got back from a week-long trip to a clean house, happy animals, and a flourishing garden. We'll definitely work with Tashani for future trips!!
Grace is phenomenal. Both of my dogs were immediately drawn to her and absolutely adore her. Grace is so attentive with them, professional, and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Will absolutely work with Grace again in the future and highly recommend her!
Chris was very responsive and communicative! Our dog is a 1+ year old pit who has been with us for less than a year, so we were anxious about subjecting someone else to his energy and antics. This was our first time leaving him home for more than a few hours, but all went well! Plenty of pictures from his walks and cuddles, and the house was in great shape too.

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 Tariffville 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 Tariffville 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 Tariffville 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
