“Lez did a wonderful job cat and house sitting while we were out of town for the week. There was easy communication via text while we were away. Our senior cat enjoyed her company and care. We returned to a well kept home and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Lez’s services again.”
“As usual, Christina came and went… and left our lives better! The pups adore her, we completely love and trust her. So communicative throughout the stay. All is right when she comes to stay and play!”
“We have never had anyone stay at our house with our animals before, so the idea of leaving them with a complete stranger was very daunting. Sydney was absolutely wonderful with our two big, rambunctious dogs (2 year old huskies) and four cats. Our house was exactly as we left it and she sent lots of updates so we could see everyone’s sweet faces and how much fun they were having without us! She was terrific about updating us when she got here and letting us know how everything was going. She was always very responsive through the whole process, and it was very clear our animals were all comfortable and enjoying their normal routine with her. We will absolutely have Sydney back, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Our pup was so comfy with Megan. He normally is so anxious and loses his appetite when we go on trips, and that wasn’t an issue at all with Megan! He was so taken care of and comfortable. The constant updates of pictures of walks and his normal routine made us feel at ease. She’s the best. Would 100% recommend her.”
“Grace the pitbull was well-cared for with Shelby. I really appreciated the daily updates with pictures which allowed me to relax during my time away. I think Shelby left the house in better shape than when I left. I highly recommend Shelby and will trust her again with my pet!”
“Matt is our go-to sitter when we are out of town. He is responsible, responsive and takes great care of our dog and house. He takes directions well and our dog has a great time with him.”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and have had dogs most of my life. I have two dogs of my own, so I know how much they mean to their owners and how important it is to have someone you can trust with them. I’m very hands on with my dogs and enjoy taking them on walks, playing with them, spending time outside, and just hanging out with them. I’m comfortable with big dogs, high energy dogs, and dogs that just want some love and attention. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. I work full-time Tuesday through Saturday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, so I’m available for pet care after 3:30 PM on those days. I’m available all day Sunday and Monday. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and will do my best to work around your needs. I can usually accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays with a little notice. I’m also happy to work out a schedule that keeps your dog comfortable and on their normal routine while you’re away. I know it can be stressful leaving your dog and your home with someone you don’t know, so I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep things clean and secure, and make sure your dog is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. I’m reliable, respectful, and easy to communicate with. I’ll follow your instructions and your dog’s normal routine, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you know everything is going well.
About: Animals have pretty much always been a part of my life! I grew up always having an animal in the home, and most people who know me jokingly describe my house as a zoo. Currently, I have one dog, two cats, and a fish tank, so caring for animals is genuinely just part of my everyday life. I also spent two years working at Petco, where I got hands-on experience with all kinds of animals, including reptiles, birds, fish, and small animals. I know every pet has their own personality, quirks, and routine, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, fins, or scales, I’ll make sure they get plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away! 🐾 I’m currently working as a substitute teacher so I can come by before school and after school so think anytime before 7:30 and after 3pm. I also babysit part time so my scheudle can be a little busy. I’m happy to work with you to figure out a schedule that works best for you and your family. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I’ll follow their normal routines closely, pay attention to their individual needs, and make sure they’re in a safe and secure environment at all times. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll care for them with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own animals. 🐾❤️
“She was wonderful at the meet and greet, and I will certainly use her in the future. My family came down with Covid and it was unavoidable that I will have to reschedule to another time to go home.”
“Christina did such a great job taking care of our dog, cat, and home. She watered our plants and took really good care of our home. We are definitely going to rebook her.”
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and am the proud dog mom of my own Husky–Goldendoodle, Nagi. Caring for her has given me experience with daily walks, exercise, feeding, enrichment, grooming, and understanding different dog personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and I know how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and consistent routine while owners are away. In my professional career, I manage programs for the State of California, so being dependable, organized, and communicating clearly comes naturally to me. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I look after. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evenings, weekend, and holiday pet care. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting depending on my schedule. I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that allow me to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Communication is very important to me, and I’ll send regular photo updates throughout each visit. I know pets feel happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and reliable hands.
“Ginger has watched our 3 doggies several times for us and has become a favorite for all. She instantly figured out personalities and able to adjust to their quirks - and ours. On top of the excellent level of care and affection, we have also appreciated Ginger’s communication and flexibility around our changing work schedules. It has given us such peace of mind to know that our home and furry family are in good hands with Ginger. Our 3 pets continue to look for her after we come home and, I am sure, look forward to Ginger’s next visit. Thank you!”
“Cedric is absolutely amazing! Can not describe how fantastic he was for everything!!!!!! Amazing communication and outstanding care for our large dog,- we couldn’t have asked for better!”
“Diana is so kind and generous! We have two animals and she came over twice to make sure she understood how to take care of them. Each time, she was a complete delight and also she kept me updated with updates on how my fur babies were doing. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She will be our go-to sitter from now on”
“Jenna did a very good job watching our very rambunctious rescue puppy. I honestly felt bad having to get a dog sitter at all when our recent rescue is still nervous and chaotic, but I explained the situation in depth to Jenna and she was unfazed. She handled Barlow calmly and sent lots of great photos, and he did as well as could be hoped for. We will definitely call of Jenna again, hopefully once Barlow is a little calmer.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,573 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Trowbridge. 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 Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge 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 Trowbridge 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.
