About: Love to walk, run or go on hikes often depending on your request! Happy to assist your pet while you are away and send lots of updates! If visits are needed during the weekend and/or when school is off my three children will likely be joining me to help. I’m available full time, typically start dog runs at 9:00am and love to go on hikes (weather permitting) I am open to any additional pet requests. We have a large grassed yard with access to the lake for swimming and dock jumping. Additionally, daily walks and runs on leash. Lots of extra pet supplies if needed.
“Jade did a wonderful job sitting for Angel thru the 6 days when we were gone. I felt Angel was in good hands, she was very caring toward Angel. I could see Angel was very comfortable with Jade from the pictures Jade sent to me when I was traveling. Jade sent me daily pictures of Angel along with videos. That I really appreciated. I would recommend Jade to anyone who is looking for a good dog sitter. Kirsten M.”
“Loved Alex so much! I have an anxious little lady and the minute Alex walked in Soph laid on the floor and wanted tummy rubs. She had a very calming presence which was so comforting knowing she would be in good hands. She was so easy to communicate with and kept us updated while we were gone. Would love to use her again ❤️”
“Thank you so much for watching Bowey! We truly appreciate you taking such good care of him! Also it was super helpful when our trip got extended and you were able to watch him a few extra days! We will definitely be in touch for future stays!”

“Meghan was AWESOME! I hadn't left my pets alone in many years. I was anxiety ridden. She stayed at my home for 5 days when I had to attend my daughter's wedding. Along with giving my dogs and kitty excellent care and attention, she constantly reassured me every day with pictures of them and how well they were doing. She absolutely exceeded my expectations. Thanks to Meghan, I really had a worry free trip!”

We felt confident that we could go away and not give another thought to how our girls were in her hands and could just enjoy being away. We knew everything would be just great and we were right. I'm very happy to have had Amanda at our home and will definitely use her services again.”
About: Just moved back in with my two retired parents. We have a big unfenced yard with a 50ft dog run going from the front porch to a tree. Growing up we’ve always had dogs and I have my own dog in adulthood for 9 years now. But, who can ever get enough dog time in their life, am I right?! I would love the opportunity to walk more dogs either by them selves or with my dog Maggie whom loves meeting new dogs herself and is very friendly. We would also love to dog sit or board, if dog sitting I could bring my dog Maggie along or leave her with my parents if that’s the preference. Having raised a puppy before I am very very patient with dogs and have lots of love for all breeds and temperaments! I am super accomodating to you and your dogs needs so let me know if you have any questions or preferences, I look forforward to meeting all the cute doggos! I work as a server, mostly at night and some Saturday mornings. I also have Thursday and Sundays off. I am available for all services from 6am to 2pm any day and boarding or doggy day care Thursdays and Sundays. I moved back in with my 2 retired parents I plan on being home if I am dog sitting or boarding but if I had to run out for any reason one of us is always home and your fur children would never be left alone.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of many temperaments, so caring for them has come naturally since I was young. I’ve helped friends and neighbors with their dogs, from playful puppies to the most anxious worriers and senior companions, prioritizing the mental and physical well-being of each one. I’m comfortable giving oral medications and happy to learn injections with guidance. I also work at a doggie daycare and love the work. I’m available most Fridays to Sundays, with flexible mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I enjoy keeping pets on regular routines and caring for them helps me stay active, spend time outdoors, and maintain a consistent daily schedule. I make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable by closely supervising them, keeping their environment clean and secure, and paying attention to their individual needs and routines. I handle all pets with patience and care, whether in my home or yours, and prioritize trust, consistency, and a calm, pet-friendly environment.
“Joseph was great! Our dog Rudy has many health issues and a lot of attention with his medications. He did a great job giving him his meds. He was also great with texting us and sending us pictures.”
“Rachel is fantastic! Not only is she great with our dogs, but when we went on a trip my husband forgot his medications and she went the extra mile and made sure they were shipped to us. Our pups love her and we won’t hesitate to have her dog sit again. She’s wonderful!”
About: I’m a kind and goofy gal that loves dogs with my whole being. I own a beagle named Luna that I love spending time with. Her mom needs to hustle to get more funds for our journeys and all the Trader Joe’s treats. I am constantly the friend that takes care of my friend’s dog and enjoy every moment. I hope you give me the opportunity to spend time with your pet! I’d be happy to expand on my experience and passion. My entire schedule revolves around my dog. I’m thinking about how to move things around for her and always checking if I can bring her with. I enjoy our three walks a day on our remote work from home days. I’m open to taking care of pets at my home or their own as long as you’re okay with mine being with us. I’d be happy to introduce them beforehand. I’m a horrible liar and believe in karma, so I treat everyone and their homes like I would want others to treat mine. Hopefully this isn’t too cheesy lol
About: I've cared for puppies and senior dogs alike. I've been taking care of dogs my entire life and I am familiar with all breeds. From Daschund to German Shepherd I have been with them all. I currently even own a very well trained Dachshund and shes almost 2 I'm available most everyday rain or shine. I am very attentive and capable of taking care of most any dog. I always take the necessary time to care for a dog as they need it and when they need it I don't offer this service, but I am willing to take care of your pets in your home at any time that you may need it.
About: I have had pets my whole life. Currently I have 3 cats, 3 dogs, a hamster, and fish. I have also had bunnies, hermit crabs, and many reptiles. There is not an animal I don't love caring for or being around. I am good with animals of all ages and sizes!! I currently am a homemaker with an open schedule. I am available morning til night and overnights if needed. I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I care for every pet like they’re part of the family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,085 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Thompson. 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 Thompson 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 Thompson 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 Thompson 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.
