“Kendra is amazing!! From our first meet and greet, she let my 90lb dog give her kisses all over her face and they were comfortable together right off the bat. She gave proactive updates and was great at communicating while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with Kendra again!!”
“Daniel was a great sitter for my house and dogs while I was away. When I got home, one of my dogs didn’t want him to leave so I think they had a wonderful time. Would recommend his services to anyone in need.”
About: I’ve been caring for both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m a 23 year old UCLA graduate who truly loves spending time with pets, whether that’s going on walks, giving extra cuddles, or making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m excited to continue doing what I love most while also supporting my schooling, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time as a substitute teacher and would love to spend early afternoons or nights with your fur babies! I’m also free to take walks any time of the day on my days off or morning or afternoons during work days! I currently live in an apartment with a guest bedroom that can be used entirely by your fur babies. I'm also very willing to travel to the comfort of your home so your fur babies don't have to experience any extra stress of a new environment
“Azrael had to deal with a standoffish dog and cat that we were petsitting, in addition to our cat. With patience, she earned the dog’s trust and kept us apprised of the situation throughout the day.”
About: I’ve had four dogs back in my home state! Taking care of dogs is a joy. Bonus points for the cute ones, they love me! I’m current working part time doing private chef work and have some time and lots of energy to spend with your pup on trails and more! Would love to have a dog myself when my lifestyle permits, for now, I get to enjoy yours… win win ☺️🎾 Plenty of pavement and park land in this beautiful city! Will ensure your dog is hydrated and gets plenty of playtime while under my care!
About: Working remotely I give your pets the care and love that they deserve. More hugs! More walks! More love! More safety! In rural vt I cared for small and large homes, and medium to larger dogs. Active pets I am active. Older pets and I respite with them more. Every animal has a different personality and different needs. I care. They seem to know. lol. On a side note I volunteer with a local animal shelter and a food bank. I try to make a difference where I can. Growing up we had family dogs. It taught me how amazing animals are. I now have time to give them kindness and love as you would... When I stay in your home your pets have less stress and anxiety in a familiar place. In my home or yours, I take pets for walks and caring play time throughout my workday. This care and attention and play reduces stress and your pet may be more relaxed coming home like after a day at the spa. Yup. :-) Working from my home or yours means more care for your loved family member (aka pets)!
“Patty is very attentive and my fur baby loved having her take care of him. I didn’t need to worry while I was away because Patty went above and beyond to make sure my baby felt safe, loved and all of his needs were taken care of and Patty sent me photos/videos of my doggie every day too. Patty is the very best!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by tails and paws my whole life, but nothing taught me more about true pet care than raising my own dogs. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach. I treat every pet as if they were my own by giving them the kind of care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, providing comfort, or playtime, I make sure each moment counts. I’m available for overnight boarding at any time on weekends and weekdays. Doggy day care is available for all hours & days. Drop-In Visits & Walks are available WEEKDAYS : (6:30AM-12PM) or (6PM-8PM) & weekends at anytime .This makes it easy for me to accommodate overnight stays, walks, drop in visits, and day care. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or weekday work trip, you can count on me to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, safety is my top priority. I provide a secure fenced area, pet friendly space that’s free from hazards, with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I make sure food, toys, and rest areas are suited to each pet’s size, age, and needs, and I always supervise to keep everyone safe and happy. I always keep a close eye on pet behavior and health so I can act quickly if something seems off.

Kailyn kept me updated with regular messages and cute photos, which really eased my mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being, ensuring he was well-fed, exercised, and happy. I highly recommend Kailyn for anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.

“We are thrilled with the amazing job Frankie did while taking care of our dog, Mochi. From the moment we met Frankie, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Throughout the entire time, she was incredibly caring and attentive to Mochi’s needs. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent us, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Mochi was in good hands. Mochi absolutely loved her, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate puppy sitter.

About: I’m a former dog groomer with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Working in grooming taught me how to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs, and I bring that same care into every walk. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always make safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel calm, cared for, and loved on every walk. Pet care fits into my weekly routine during my dedicated availability times. I am available Friday evenings, Saturday afternoons, and all day Sundays, which allows me to consistently focus on providing reliable and attentive care during those periods. I enjoy spending that time walking and caring for dogs, making sure they get exercise, attention, and a positive experience on every visit. I work at an urgent care in Visalia on weekdays but aside from that I have plenty of time to care for pets! In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all care instructions exactly as provided and prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I take time to build trust with each dog so they feel calm and secure during walks or visits. I always use proper leash safety, pay attention to their behavior and needs, and make sure they get a good balance of exercise, bathroom breaks, and positive attention. With my background as a former dog groomer, I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments and can stay patient and gentle with pets who may be shy, energetic, or need extra reassurance. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own and keep their routine as stress-free and consistent as possible.

FAQs for House Sitting - Traver
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 487 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Traver. 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 Traver 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 Traver 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 Traver 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Traver. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
