About: I’ve taken care of dogs both big and small since I was 8 years old, and I’ve house sat and farm sat for family and friends through high school and into college. I’m experienced caring for senior dogs with special health care needs and medication administration, and I have helped train and worked with search and rescue dogs through our local fire department. Having been a volunteer firefighter for several years now, I am comfortable in chaos - so I’m happy to come walk or house sit puppies as well! I’m also available for limited farm sitting chores for an additional fee. If you have any questions or requests, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m in a season in life where I can’t have my own dog (school and work), but I’d love to take care of your furry family as if they were my own! I have a super flexible schedule, so I am almost always available to suit your schedule to accommodate your pets’ needs and wants. I am available for infinite potty breaks! I am happy to follow what instructions you have for your home and pets. I work to accommodate your pets needs and their best interests as well. I want to work towards happy pets of all shapes and sizes.
“William was great with my puppy. He sent pictures and even saved her from eating a plastic chew toy that was left behind at the dog park. He gives wonderful updates that makes you feel at ease. Repects the space and kept things clean. Will definitely book again!”
“Cassandra did a wonderful job taking care of our Foxy. She was incredibly patient and kind during Foxy's stay with her. We appreciated the updates and extra care she expressed during Foxy's stay. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Autumn was awesome! She did a fantastic job with our dog while we were away for 2 weeks. Very responsive and took great care of our dog. We will be booking with her for our future sitter needs and highly recommend her!”
“Carolyn was amazing! My fur babies loved her and she was very sweet to them. Great communication and shared photos to let me know everyone was having fun! I will definitely have Carolyn take care of the fur babies again!”
“Johnny was just fantastic!! So friendly and he kept in contact throughout my entire trip, sent video and pictures, watered plants and picked up mail! Will definitely ask again!!”
“Suzanne was perfect! So easy to work with, our fella sure was content! Her calm was much appreciated in a house of an older dog. We never fretted a moment whilst we were away, that’s the true test! ❤️”
About: I have been an animal lover for life and a dog owner for two years. Before that I have been a dog sitter several times in the UK, where I am from. I have regularly cat-sit for a family, which included taking the little feline out on walks in her harness! I love doing training with my own dog, (who is steadily becoming more well behaved!) and would be happy to incorporate training into my visits with yours. I am a very active person and can play ball, run, and walk with dogs. I know the importance of mental stimulation. I am currently available most days, with the exception of Wednesdays. I am an artist and market vendor, and I am able to adjust my schedule much of the time to fit in with your needs. I am happy to walk dogs and do check-ins at your home. I am a careful and cautious person and will follow instructions given as closely as I can.
About: I've been walking my dogs my whole life; I've had an Akita, two Shiba Inus, and one husky mutt (all raised from puppies). I have dealt with all of the care required. I've taken care of many of my family and friend's pets as well as worked at a dog day care "3 muttskateers" for half a year. Im currently interning at a nearby studio and would love to spend some of my free time walking or checking in on dogs. I live near Leicester and am willing to make drives to spend time with your furry friend. I am very patient with dogs, allowing them to take the time they need to do what they need to do. I am aware that most dogs have boundaries, and just because they are showing them does not make them badly behaved at all. If instructed, I also have a lot of experience being stern.
“Amber provided excellent care for all of my pets. From her photos it was very clear that Amber made my nervous puppy feel completely safe and comfortable. Furthermore it was very evident my cats loved her company. I am super pleased with her services and would recommend.”
“Donna is absolutely amazing!! In addition to being super friendly, she is flexible, accommodating, and eager to love on your fur babies! She took great care of Oreo, and I am so thankful to have found a reliable, kind, and loving sitter. Even in the chaos of my life, she was ready and willing to help at a moments notice. Oreo had a ride to the park, slept in bed, and had plenty of perfect attention!”
“Anastasia was so great! She watched our dogs last minute and totally put our minds at ease. We are genuinely looking forward to our next trip since we know our dogs will be in good hands.”
“Constance was an excellent house sitter and friend to my sweet Quincy while I was away. She provided daily updates and pictures. She left my apartment cleaner than when I left. Thank you Constance for your care and attention! Quincy had a great time with you!”
About: Pets have been part of my caregiving life for decades. Through years of in-home care for elderly and ill clients, I’ve walked, fed, and loved countless dogs and cats — including seniors and pets needing medication. I treat every animal with the same patience and attention I give people. My daughter Summer is also a Rover sitter, and from time to time we co-sit for each other on longer bookings, always arranged and agreed upon with the pet parent in advance. As a retired caregiver, I have a flexible, open schedule and can give your pet consistent, reliable attention. I’m generally available most days and will work with you to find timing that aligns with your travel plans. I specialize in both short and longer-term overnight house and pet sitting. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d give my own. With years of experience managing households, I follow your pet’s routines, administer medications if needed, and keep everything safe, clean, and calm. Your home will be just as you left it, your pet even happier.
“Leigh was such a pleasure to work with! From the moment we met her we knew we had met the person that had the capacity and skill to care for our furry companions. Leigh communicated with us daily and she was great on letting us know her plan for each day. She took our dog Tig on several adventures and even took our cat outside for a look around. We could tell by the daily photos she sent that the animals felt very relaxed and cared for. Our house felt very settled and clean when we returned and it felt nice to come back and reconnect with the animals. I would highly recommend Leigh and I definitely plan on booking with her again. If you’re looking for a great person to work with, book Leigh! You will not be disappointed.”
“Chloe did an exceptional job watching our Dane. He was dealing with an injury and needed extra attention, a cone and medication and Chloe met all of his needs. This was our first time using Rover and being able to travel with peace of mind that our boy was at home made our trip so much more enjoyable. We came home to a very happy boy and a clean house. We will for sure be using Chloe on future trips and recommend her to any of our friends that have pets.”
“Jada was wonderful! She communicated well throughout her stay and left the house in great shape. The best part was how quickly our girls fell in love with her. Harriett and Winnifred are normally friendly, however it was clear they had 100% adopted Jada as Auntie! 😂👏 We'd love to have her back anytime!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Trust
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 560 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Trust. 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 Trust 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 Trust 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 Trust 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 with handling special pet needs in Trust. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
