“Allison was great! She came the night before we left (we had to leave before 5am to catch our plane) so we had enough time to discuss dog care. She sent daily texts with photos so we knew our dog was doing well. When we returned, the house was very neat and she washed her sheets and towels, and that was very appreciated. Allison is very pleasant and obviously likes dogs very much. We will definitely request her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I have 3 dogs right now and two cats along with many others before. Animals are my life and I will ensure the best care! I’m available two full days out of the week along with afternoons and mornings most days as well. I’m in college and working but I am super flexible with my time and i’m willing to do what’s needed. At the moment I have two dobermans living at my home, along with that I have had my cat for 11 years. I also have trained and taken care of puppies as I have one now and at my old home.

About: I bring two years of prior experience as a Rover pet and house sitter, meaning I already understand the high level of trust, communication, and respect required when stepping into your home and caring for your furry family members. At 27 years old, I offer a mature, highly responsible, and attentive approach to pet care. I pride myself on being deeply observant of a pet's energy and health, ensuring they stay safe, active, and completely at ease while you are away. >Flexible Server Schedule with Great Availability Because I work as a server, my weekly schedule is highly flexible and leaves me with large blocks of open time during the day. This structure allows me to easily prioritize pet care and drop in when your animals need it most. Whether you need regular house sitting, daytime check-ins, or mid-day walks, I can be readily available with just a little advance notice. I am excellent at managing my time, so you can count on me to be prompt, reliable, and entirely focused on keeping your pets on their normal routines. Safety and trust come from understanding that every animal is unique. My own pets are deeply loved, and a lifetime of living with animals has taught me the importance of balancing their natural daily needs—whether that means high-energy playtime, dedicated exercise, or quiet, uninterrupted relaxation. • Following Your Routine to a T: You know your pet best. I pride myself on being exceptional at following the owner’s specific directions. Whether it’s a strict feeding schedule, specific walking routes, or house rules, I ensure your routines are maintained exactly as you want them to keep your pet's stress levels zero. • In Your Home: Because I focus heavily on house sitting, my priority is maintaining a secure environment. I double-check locks, secure gates, and keep a highly attentive eye on your pet's body language and well-being in their own comfortable surroundings. • In My Home: When I do care for pets in my home, they receive constant, vigilant supervision. I keep the environment calm, organized, and closely managed so that every animal feels safe and gets the personal attention they deserve.
“I cannot thank Kamila enough for the work that she provided me in caring for my dogs. Kamila is an amazing professional. She is very skilled in caring for animals and she projects an aura of professionalism that there is no need for any level of concern for the pet or the property. I left home totally confident that everything was going to ok. When I returned, she had not only done the contracted work but had gone above and beyond. Thank you very, very much!”

About: I've had the pleasure of caring for some sweet amazing pets over the years. Having 2 dogs myself : a Chihuahua and a husky: I'm able to care for various breeds and sizes. My experience includes feeding, walking, providing companionship to animals in their own homes. I've also had the opportunity to work with different breeds and temperaments, allowing me to adapt my caregiving techniques to each individual pet's needs.

“Sophia and her husband are great! She was available and communicative. Shes very open and understanding. She took great care of my little nugget and was also able to come pick him up. I will use her again!”
About: My experience with dogs comes from raising and training puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind as well as my own dog training job! My skills also include handling and giving medications due to interning in vet med. I work with dogs every day of my life due to my line of work. This care may include getting energy out or behavioral issues. I am very eager to make sure that basic needs are met before anything.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, whether that be my personal family dogs or foster dogs that my family and I have rescued. Growing up around dogs has taught me how to be patient, attentive and responsive to their different personalities and needs. Helping care for foster dogs has also given me experience with animals that may be nervous, shy or adjusting to a new environment. I enjoy spending time with dogs by playing with them, taking them on walks and making sure they feel safe, cared for and hopefully having fun! Because of all of this, I am comfortable working with dogs of different ages and sizes, all are welcome! I’m currently working part- time, so I have a plenty of time for all of the beautiful pets, I hope to come across! I’m free weekends and weekdays after 2pm. I have a wonderful neighborhood and apartment complex that I, myself, love walking around. As well, there’s a very big and beautiful park, less than a mile away from me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 312 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vado. 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 Vado 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 Vado 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 Vado 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!

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.
