“Amelia did an absolutely amazing job! This was my first time leaving my puppy and I was very nervous but she did great! She constantly sent pictures and updates and assured me everything was fine! She did a great job at following everything I asked of her as well! I would definitely recommend using her and you can trust that your pup is in the best of hands! I will absolutely use her in the future!!”
“Nancy is always great to us. Our little ones love her, and she's very responsive and super helpful. She just finished 8 nights house-sitting for us, and we were so comfortable and happy knowing everything was in such good hands!”
“Such a great sitter! Was very flexible with the start time and communicated throughout. Made sure our girl was taken care of, and she even got to play with Lucy. Will definitely be a repeat client! :)”
“Becca did a great job with our two dogs and was very patient with our rescue dog that has some quirks. She also was very responsive to messages and sent pictures everyday. We would definitely use her again!”
“Kaylin took care of our big fluffy guy for a long weekend and we couldn’t have been happier! Leo was exercised to the fullest every day and we loved all the picture updates :) our home was in perfect condition when we came home. We will definitely be using Kaylin again in the future!”
“Amy stayed overnight at our house with our dogs and cats for a few days. We came home to happy animals and a clean house! She was communicative and sent pictures and updates. We will absolutely book with her again!”
“Taylor was amazing! She took on a week long stay with less than 24 hours notice for 5 pets!!! She came over the same day and talked through all the details with me. She was great about communicating, sending pictures, and I’m confident my pets were well loved while we were away! I would hire Taylor (and her awesome family) again in a heartbeat! 😊”
“Sarah is excellent! She took great care of my dog and cats while I was away, and I came home to a very happy crew of animals. Communication and photos were great. Will definitely hire her again and highly recommend!!!”
“Emily was wonderful! Our dog has lots of little quirks and can require lots of energy from a dog sitter. Emily did great with him. We’re so grateful to have found someone that can cater to his needs and stay in our home. Would absolutely recommend Emily!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Autumn watching our dog, Bandit. We came home to a clean & tidy place plus one happy pup. We appreciated receiving pictures, reassuring that bandit was having a great time and looked content. We would absolutely recommend Autumn’s services and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Olivia stayed with my doberdork for a week over the thanksgiving holiday and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was extremely communicative and both pup and house were in excellent spirits/shape upon my return!”
“Absolutely — here’s a warm, genuine review that hits all of that: I had a great experience with Naomi watching my dogs and taking care of my home while I was away for work. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire time, which gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing everything was being taken care of. I came home to a clean house, happy dogs, and she even left a thoughtful little gift, which was such a nice surprise. You can tell she genuinely cares and takes pride in what she does. I’m extremely grateful for how well she took care of everything and would absolutely trust and recommend Naomi to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and trustworthy. Thank you again, Naomi!”
“We had such a great experience with Susan while she watched Bodhi and Chloe! She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared so much about our dogs. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands, and it was clear Bodhi and Chloe were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We would absolutely book Susan again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups!”
“Jasmine is wonderful and our animals love her. They aren't even excited to see us when we return home because she cares for them so well. We love having her stay with them!”
“Baileigh is amazing! She took care of my 3 GSPs for the weekend and stayed in our home. She communicates frequently, promptly and is totally reliable. I didn’t need to worry at all and felt confident my dogs were in great hands. 10 out of 10!”
“Julianne was a wonderful and reliable pet sitter. Communicated with us well throughout the whole trip and kept our home spotless! Spent lots of quality time with our pets and helped keep us at ease throughout our trip.”
“Nick was great! He came for a meet & great before finalizing plans which I really appreciate. My dog has some behavioral needs (mainly dog reactivity) that I wanted someone experienced to handle, and he followed all of our guidelines perfectly to make the stay go as smoothly as possible. I’ve been nervous to find a sitter who is comfortable managing dog reactivity and I’m relieved that I was able to find Nick who is willing to accommodate special needs like that.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Timnath
We are so grateful we found Kelsey to care for our dog, Bagel, and watch over the house while we were gone. From the very start, not only did we feel completely comfortable with her, but we could also tell Bagel warmed up to her quickly. Throughout our vacation, Kelsey sent regular updates and cute photos, so we never felt out of the loop, giving us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Bagel was incredibly happy hanging out with her. When we got back, the house was absolutely spotless. She even went out of her way to put on fresh bedding, knowing we had a long travel day. I highly recommend Kelsey for house and dog sitting! We will definitely be booking her again, and I'm sure Bagel will be thrilled to see her!
We originally hired Trey for standard house sitting, though after meeting and working together a bit his visits turned into full training sessions and we ended up with more care than we thought we could get for our guys while we were away. He stayed on schedule and worked nicely with others who were staying out our home to make sure our boys exercised, engaged, and cared for. What sets this apart was that every visit ended up as high-level training session. Communication was fantastic and completely reliable before, during, and after the sit, good photos every day of the visits. Trey is a natural at reading body language in real time and has expertise with large breeds and helped us update patterns that had crept into our own handling. We’re thrilled he moved to Fort Collins and brought his skills here. We’ll absolutely be booking him for future trips and are already lining up our holiday schedule with him.
Emma sent lots of photos and I could tell that my pups were happy and well cared for. My younger dog is quite anxious and Emma noticed some inappropriate chewing and contacted me to see if that was normal for her or not, wondering if she was feeling anxious. I really appreciated her attention to that detail and her communicating with me about it. She did a great job!
Sarah recently cared for our dog and house sat. We couldn’t be more pleased. This is the first time we’ve left our pup since she lost her buddy a couple of years ago. Sarah regularly communicated and sent pictures, reassuring us that things were going well. We could really enjoy our time away knowing that Sarah was there. Thank you, Sarah.

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 Timnath 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 Timnath 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 Timnath 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.
