“Trena was awesome to work with! She was very communicative and sent us pictures when she first arrived and mid-day as well! It gave us peace of mind seeing that our fur babies were relaxed and comfortable with Trena.”
“Emily was absolutely perfect with my boys. When i returned home the house was clean and dogs were very happy! She sent me pictures of the boys every day and i loved that. I would highly recommend Emily 👍🏻”
“Leilani did excellent, the dogs and cats were well taken care of. She followed our written instructions and was great at keeping us updated on how things were going. The home was taken care of very well and we will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I work at a doggie daycare and boarding place. I have experience with reactive dogs, I know how to administer medications like: eye drops, pills, supplements, sprays, (not injections but I can learn). I have experience with meals that have multiple components. I have no problem with multiple dogs. I tend to feed and take out ten to fifteen dogs in the morning at work. I work four days a week at a doggie daycare and boarding place. Thursday to Sunday. 6am to 3pm. But I’m typically up at 4:30am. I have an hour break from 11am-12pm. I would be gone about five hours in the mornings but after work i have nothing. On Tuesday I have a standing class from 9-11am and an appointment from 2-3pm. I really like to build trust and understanding with my animals. They each have their own unique personalities and you have to adapt to them. It would be the same with my clients. I have taken care of horses before and you can probably imagine how unpredictable they can be sometimes. Working at my job, I have to have a real eye for stressors. They play and groups and any misbehavior can lead to a fight so I have to be on top of it.
“Olivia was a delight to have in our home with Frank. He was well cared for and we could tell he had a good time while we were on our trip. I would recommend Olivia and will have her back again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Bonnie. She stayed at our home and took excellent care of our senior dog while we were away. Our dog can be a little anxious and isn’t always the easiest dog to care for, but she was patient, attentive, and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were gone. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and treated him like her own. We came home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for house. We are so grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We would gladly book with her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, and during that time I’ve become the go‑to sitter for friends and family. Whether it’s walks, drop‑in visits, overnight stays, or keeping pups comfortable in their own home, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m big on connection — head scratches, cuddles, and calm reassurance for shy pups, plus plenty of ways to burn off energy for the more playful ones. That might look like throwing a ball, going for a walk, or playing chase around the yard until those happy tail wags kick in. Your dog’s routine, comfort, and happiness come first. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every pet like they’re my own. You can trust that while you’re away, your pup will be cared for with patience, affection, and attention to detail. I work from remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your dog throughout the day. I can provide potty break in the morning, at lunch, and in the evening and head scratches, playtime, and lots of love through out the day. This schedule is ideal for house sitting in your home where your pup gets consistent attention and a calm, reliable routine. I can also offer drop‑in visits in the morning and afternoon if you prefer your dog to stay in their own space. I offer gentle, structured walks to help your dog burn energy, stay mentally stimulated, and feel confident throughout the day. Whether it’s a quick morning walk or an afternoon outing, I make sure every walk is safe, calm, and tailored to your pup’s pace and personality. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a steady, reliable environment where your dog feels secure, understood, and genuinely loved. Because I work remotely, your pup benefits from consistent presence and attention. I maintain their routine, watch for stress signals, and ensure they get the right balance of potty breaks, affection, and play. Whether I’m staying in your home or stopping by for drop‑ins, you can trust that your dog is in patient, attentive, and responsible hands.
“Rylee took great care of our pups on a last minute trip. She was flexible with our timing and was great at communicating with us. We look forward to her watching our pups again.”
“John was great! He took great care of our dog Maverick, carefully following all of our directions and keeping him happy and safe. He spent tons of time with him which was great because he struggles with separation anxiety. He gives us regular updates and sent photos so I felt confident he was being well taken care of while we were away. I definitely recommend him!”
“Emma is amazing. She is super conscientious- very communicative, honest, reliable. She immediately bonded with our big St. Bernard and took great care of him. We returned after a long trip with our sweet doggo looking healthy, happy and relaxed. She sent tons of pictures of our boy. She took great care of our house including trouble shooting moving cars for street plowing. Highly recommend having Emma care for pets, houses, or honestly anything. Would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Suzanne went above and beyond in every aspect of her stay with Lou and Lobo, walking them often, communicating clearly and sending updates. I was confident they were her primary focus and work during her stay. We would be grateful to book with her again. I rarely leave my dogs when I travel and appreciate the excellent, conscientious in home care Sarah provided Lou and Lobo.”
“Kayla is great! She took excellent care of our animals and our house while we were away. She was flexible and really great at communicating with us. We will 100% rebook with her in the future.”
“Lilli kept our dog for a week at our house. She did an amazing job. Gave our doggo lots of exercise and companionship. We came back to a happy dog and a clean house. I have no hesitations in recommending her!”
“Sam was fantastic! She responded promptly, communicated clearly, provided updates, asked questions proactively, and most importantly took excellent care of our dog and chickens. She also left the house clean. We will be happy to have her back again!”
“Everything seemed to have gone well. Whitney met us in person before sitting for Marlin and came again the day prior to make sure she had all the information needed and to get a lay of the land. She sent photos of marlin. Although we did not set expectations prior, in the future we would like more frequent updates. We would hire her again.”
About: I have taken care of all ages of Kittens, Puppies, Cats & Dogs. I am comfortable with dealing with different personalities or needs. I care very much about making sure your pet feels loved & cared for while you are away! I am currently a student at MSU & I usually am only at school for 3-5 hours a day for lectures. When working with pets, I make sure to spend my free time with them to make sure they are cared for! I do not offer services at my personal house. I will come to your house. I like a clean & stress free/easy to understand environment. It is also a requirement that your house is a safe environment for myself & your pets. Communication is a must to create a trusting relationship with your pet/house sitter!
“We booked Allie for a second time to watch our dogs, and she did just as amazing as the first time! Its really clear how much she cares about our animals while we are there and is very respectful of our space. There will most definitely be a third booking!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Trident 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 Trident 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 Trident 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
