I really appreciate him and feel like I've found my forever cat sitter in Thomas!”

About: Throughout my life, I have consistently had pets. My passion for animals is profound, and I am committed to caring for your pet as if it were my own, should the opportunity arise. Pet care is a priority in my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently available any day of the week and always prioritize your pets’ individual needs. I enjoy giving them plenty of time to fully enjoy their walks without rushing. I also have three very friendly dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to provide pets with patience, care, attention, and companionship. I care for pets by following their usual routines and prioritizing their comfort, safety, and individual needs. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and relaxed walks without being rushed. In a client’s home, I maintain their familiar schedule, provide fresh food and water, clean up after them, administer care as instructed, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. With three friendly dogs and a cat of my own, I understand how important dependable and compassionate care is.

“Eleonora did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and 2 cats in our home. She walked our dog every day and kept us posted throughout the visit with messages and pics of our fur kids. She is very reliable and we would definitely book her again!”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone who will care for them like family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups who just want a slower-paced walk and extra cuddles. All my family members and friends rely on me when they are needing their dog to be in safe hands. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! I currently work part-time, which means I'm home for most of the day and have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just relaxing together, your pup will have lots of love, companionship, and care throughout their stay. Your pet will be staying in a loving home with two friendly indoor dogs—one is a sweet senior, and the other is a playful four-year-old. They have free roam of the house and plenty of cozy beds for naps throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard where your dog can safely explore and play. All potty breaks are supervised, and your pup will never feel alone—they'll always have me and my two dogs around for company, companionship, and lots of love.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of my hands-on experience with animals in both volunteer and home settings. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, backgrounds, and needs. At home, I’ve also cared for five pets, so I understand the consistency, patience, attentiveness, and responsibility that come with managing multiple animals at once. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual routine and temperament while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and given plenty of attention. I am currently working part-time in a remote position, which provides me with a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for pets.

I carefully follow feeding schedules, household instructions, and any specific care preferences provided by the owner. I also prioritize maintaining a clean, comfortable, and safe environment so pets can feel secure while their owners are away.

“Mary took great care of my pets and communicated with me about how they were doing, and she sent daily pictures. She was also very flexible when our travel plans changed, and even made the change request for me on the Rover app when I couldn’t figure it out. She also left a lovely note and a pretty vase of dried flowers. We will definitely request her for future pet sitting needs!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tarpey
Cassisy was a great sitter. She was very nice, responsive, and kept me updated throughout the stay. We came home to a clean house, and my dogs were happy and well cared for. She listened to all of my instructions and followed them perfectly. I really appreciated how easy and stress-free she made everything.
Samantha did an amazing job taking care of our pets while we were away! She looked after our 6 month old puppy, our adult Frenchie, and our Maine Coon cat with so much care and attention. She also kept the litter box clean and made sure everyone was well cared for. She treated our home with respect and left everything clean and tidy when we returned. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in good hands. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Faith was great! However, we just moved to Clovis, so my dog has been stubborn. Faith was unable to get him out of our bedroom. She ended up cancelling that night because she was supposed to come the next day as well. I did really appreciate her honesty because she said she didn't want to get paid since she wasn't able to provide the services I needed.
Dear, dear Rita got double duty this trip. We added a second dog, who's a sweet elderly old guy with incontinence issues. Rita took it in stride, even managing to diaper the dogger successfully, which I hadn't been able to do. As always, the dogs were happy, and everything thing was taken care of. I have complete faith in her abilities, and so appreciate her!
Joseph took good care of my two cats while I traveled out of state. I felt safe leaving them in the care of a more mature person. My home was tidy and well kept when I returned. And, he is also owned by 2 cats - that makes a big difference! Thank you, Joseph! 😽😸

The average cost of House Sitting in Tarpey is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $58 per night.

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 Tarpey 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 Tarpey 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 Tarpey 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.
