About: I've had family dogs for 13 years, but started taking care of some of my neighbors' dogs 5 years ago, whether it be taking them for potty breaks or staying over at their house to give them attentive care. I work part time at a pet boarding place as a kennel tech, so I have lots of experience with many different breeds and temperaments of both cats and dogs. I've worked with dogs of all sizes, from Yorkie to Saint Bernard, and have lots of experience caring for both puppies and senior pets that might need more rigorous attention. I will be working part-time this summer, meaning that on the occasional days I work, I am available any time before 8am and then after 1-2pm. I can still stay over with your pet any day, that just means that on workdays, I would feed and walk them (And any other things necessary) before 8am, and then have to leave for work and then come back at 1-2. Whenever I am not actively at work, I can spend all my time caring for your pets! I am experienced at reading pet body language and adapting to how they respond. I am very communicative and will send lots of updates about your pet, including daily pictures of your fur babies! I can supply treats (with your approval) and can take them to parks and other places for walks, as I have a car and license. I'm dedicated to making sure your animal is as happy as can be :-)
“Duncan watched our two dogs in our home for 3 nights. He was conscientious and communicative before we left and throughout his stay. He sent updates and photos of the dogs and reassured us that all was well while we were away. Bonus points for leaving our apartment very tidy!”

“This was the first time we used Addies services for our two Great Danes. She was great. Kept us informed about them. They loved her. And they went looking for her after we got home.❤️ we would definitely love for her to care for our dogs again.”

“Charlie house sat for us for a week. He took amazing care of our cat and dog. Charlie was very professional and an excellent communicator. When we got home, the pets were happy and the house was immaculate. I highly recommend Charlie for pet sitting. We'll be using his services again!”

“Felicia was fantastic at wrangling my beloved, but extremely difficult, elderly cat with chronic kidney disease! She was able to give my cat transdermal meds and daily subcutaneous fluids, despite my cat hating everyone but me and making an absolute scene about it every time. Felicia's care for my cat and my home made it so I could actually enjoy vacation without checking the pet cam every five minutes. I'm so grateful for her help!”

“I have to thank Collin for his patience and willingness to watch my furry duo. He managed to somehow feed my poor dogs using sorcery and sheer willpower to scrounge whatever I had left after my dog’s food was stolen from my doorstep. My dogs also adore and trust him so he gets 100/10. Thank you so much, Collin!”

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey, and caring for animals has always been something that comes really naturally to me. I recently adopted my cat, Louis, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I work full-time in behavioral health, so I bring a lot of patience, attentiveness, and calm energy into how I care for animals—especially those who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance. I’m available for drop-ins and walks, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I’m happy to follow detailed routines, send regular updates, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or just some company, I’d love to help! Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I try to keep my schedule balanced so I can be fully present with each pet, and not feel rushed between visits. I’m happy to stick to consistent routines, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate specific timing needs when I can. I’m especially a good fit for pets who benefit from a calm, steady presence or a little extra patience. I care for every pet the way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, attention, and a really calm energy. I recently adopted my cat, Louisville aka Louis, so I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your space. In your home, I’m very respectful of routines and will follow instructions closely to keep things consistent and low-stress. I take my time building trust, especially with shy or anxious pets (and cats who like to take their time warming up). I’m mindful about safety - secure doors, leashes, clean spaces, and making sure your pet is always comfortable. I’ll also send thoughtful updates and photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Whether your pet wants playtime, a walk, or just a cozy presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are.
About: Hi! I’m Lynnette, a dedicated pet lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve provided dog walking, boarding, drop-in visits, and overnight care, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. As a responsible professional and parent, I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! If you’re looking for reliable, loving care for your dog, I’d be happy to help. Feel free to book a service or send me a message with any questions—I do my best to maintain flexible availability and respond promptly to inquiries. I’m excited to learn more about your pet and help make their care experience stress-free and enjoyable for both of you! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I am organized and committed to maintaining each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority to provide attentive, dependable care while keeping pet owners updated with photos and messages. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routines and providing a safe, loving environment. In a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, clean litter boxes, provide walks and playtime, administer medications when needed, and give plenty of attention and companionship. In my home, pets receive supervision, exercise, affection, and individualized care based on their personality and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Claudia and Omar were just great. They stayed with my dog for 5 days and I was was concerned at first that since my dog didn't really know them it might make her anxious. Not at all. She seemed like she barely noticed I was gone when I returned:(. My house was in the same shape as when I left so hard to know they were even there. Highly recommend them and will use them again when the occasion arises.”

“Tyler stayed at our house for 5 days with our dog and she was as happy as she’s ever been when we returned. Tyler is very reliable, responsive, and respectful. Would get my strong recommendation for anybody’s dog care needs!”

“Alissa is a fantastic pet sitter!! She stayed at our house for a long weekend. I met with her ahead of time to show her around my house and to tell her about Bentley. She is warm, caring, very responsible and trustworthy. The weekend went very smoothly and she texted me updates every day. I knew my dog was in good hands with Alissa.”
About: I've been taking care of my friends' and family's pets for years now. At first, I would take care of their cats despite being allergic just so they could have someone reliable (plus I love cats). Within the past year, I've been starting to pet sit for dogs both overnight and stop-in visits. I'm a huge dog lover, from small dogs to big dogs, especially the big ones that still think they're little babies. I would be honored if you trusted me with the care of ur pets <3 (plus I love sending photos of ur pets while ur away just so you know they're in good hands) I currently work 4-8 on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I'm free throughout the morning and after work. I'm starting classes at the start of September, so I'm free to care for ur furry friends any time between those slots. I'm a huge animal lover, so if your pets need extra love when ur away, I can 100% do that. Im also a big nature person, so daily walks are more than fine. I know some animals are afraid of storms or loud noises, and when that happens, I tend to stay with them to offer some comfort so they feel more at ease.
“I can't thank Sarah enough for the wonderful care they provided our dog, Joshua. Josh is usually very anxious when left alone for an extended period of time, but Sarah made him feel incredibly comfortable and relaxed. Sarah's calm and caring demeanor truly made a difference. It was such a relief to us, too, knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets - fish, dogs, cats, and birds primarily - for around 10 years. Possibly more. Absolutely love being able to assist elderly pups as well I’m currently a college student who has a lot of free time at various times during the day. Happily available to stay over as needed I play with and relax with the pets during the day and take them on walks as needed. Depending on age or size of the dog I try to give them one longer walk each day.
“Rachel is a professional and reliable dogsitter. We felt comfortable leaving our two dogs and house in her good hands. We appreciated the regular updates and pictures a lot.”


“Brandon was fantastic. He is a great communicator and clearly gave my dogs lots of love and attention while we were away. I highly recommend Brandon for your pet care needs!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Unity
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 11,317 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Unity. 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 Unity 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 Unity 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 Unity 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.

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.
