“Shanna was great. She made two meet and greet visits to ensure Thor and we were comfortable with her staying in our house etc. She sent daily updates and lots of photos. She monitored the behavior of the dog, cat and fish to make sure all was well. She dealt with surprises in a very professional manner. We will definitely ask Shanna to sit for us again in the future.”
About: I love animals and I will provide a safe, structured home with clear boundaries, like no kitchen access, so pups stay happy, safe and secure. I'm available for boarding weekdays and weekends after 3 p.m. I work full-time remote, so I can give your pups regular potty and play breaks. I have a fence yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur babies happy. I will always have fresh water to hydrate your baby.
“Kim did an amazing job! Our puppy got sick the night before she helped watch him for a week and she did a phenomenal job with him. Will definitely reach out anytime we need a sitter”
“Kylee was very polite and took wonderful care of our dogs, and home! Everything looked nicer then when I left it, and she gave us consistent updates and pictures each day which we really enjoyed. Thank you so much Kylee, definitely will be happy to have your help in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves animals. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands while we were away. She kept us updated, followed all of our instructions, and treated our home and our pup with great care and respect. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Our Ella loves it when Anne and Joaquin sit at our place. We appreciate all the love and comfort she receives and we know our house is safe and sound.”
About: With 15 years of dog behavioral and care experience, theres nothing I have not seen or dealt with. I offer a safe and structured environment for all temperaments, breed and age. Dog sitting is my life and passion. I do this 24/7, I am a stay at home mom and have finally decided to start my own dog sitting business I have a large fenced yard when the weather permits for fun outdoor activities, as well as a dog proof home environment that allows your dog to be loved like family in a safe and clean environment
About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for as long as I can remember, and as any pet owner knows, our pets become apart of our family. Sometimes it’s hard to find someone who will love them and treat them as you would, but I’m here to tell you that your fur babies will be loved and cared for by me as much as I would my own (and probably a little spoiled too haha)! I would love to be that person that helps ease your mind knowing that your fur baby is safe and sound while you’re away! I work from home, so pet care for me day to day is pretty easy! They will have lots of play time and potty time throughout the day and night! How I take care of pets will always vary on the owners wants and needs. Regardless of what it is, I’m more than willing to go above and beyond for them. Whether it’s just to feed the pet and let it out for potty breaks, or sit on the couch and love on them because they have separation anxiety! I am open and willing to do whatever I can for your fur babies!
“Stephanie did a fantastic job house sitting and watching our two pups. Communication was top notch including lots of cute pics giving us piece of mind, knowing that the pups were well cared for a happy while we were away. Returned home to a clean house with happy pups. The best overall quality with Stephanie is her excellent communication…. She always responds timely which is appreciated. 10/10, I do recommend.”
About: I've cared for animals my whole life. 18 y/o I bought my first Rottweiler. then found a puppy in the trash at a circle k. Bear and Cisco were the first puppies i trained. Next i bred rotties for 6 years. 7 litters later i was a pro,lol. I am now retired at 49 y/o and love animals more than ever. I'd love to meet your pet! my schedule is very flexible. willing to accommodate all needs with proper communication and scheduling. I have reliable transportation for our pets and drive very cautiously. my 3 y/o black labrador, Chase, is an outside only dog now. He is happy and healthy. Walked daily, cleaned up after and has fresh water all day long.
“Lora was amazing! She was incredibly communicative and flexible with our travel schedule. She’s very kind and took great care of our pups and home. It was so nice being able to travel and not worry about anything because it was in her hands!”
“Kathy took care of our little Lucy at our home and thanks to her we had a stress free vacation with peace of mind. We are truly grateful to have found Kathy. It has been the best pet sitting experience I could ask for! I received daily updates and pictures of Lucy and we came back home to a happy and relaxed pup!!”
“Wonderful caregiver and house sitter! Kept us informed with messages and pictures! She took great care of our babies while we were away! Ok too if that, our house was in the same condition as we left it and treated with respect! Would definitely book again, we highly recommend!!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands‑on experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m gentle, patient, and highly attuned to animals’ emotional states — especially shy, anxious, or sensitive pets. I’ve volunteered weekly for two years at a local animal rescue, provided long‑term pet sitting for multiple families, and cared for my own four cats at home. Animals tend to trust me quickly because I move slowly, speak softly, and let them set the pace. I’m currently transitioning into a more flexible career path, which means I have plenty of time, attention, and consistency to offer your pets. Caring for animals is one of the most grounding and meaningful parts of my life. --- My Experience With Pets I have experience with: • Senior pets • Special‑needs animals • Medication administration (oral + topical) • Rescue animals with trauma histories • High‑energy dogs • Shy or fearful cats • Multi‑pet households At the rescue, I worked with animals who needed extra patience, structure, and emotional reassurance. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, enrichment, cleaning, litter care, crate training basics, and reading subtle body language cues. I’ve also done independent pet sitting for years, including overnight stays, drop‑ins, and extended care. I treat every animal like they’re my own — with respect, gentleness, and attention to detail. --- What Your Pets Can Expect With Me My care style is calm, observant, and animal‑centered. I follow your routines exactly and keep communication open with detailed updates, photos, and notes about how your pet is doing. Your pets can expect: • A quiet, gentle presence • Respect for their boundaries • Enrichment and play tailored to their personality • Clean, safe spaces • Reliable feeding and medication schedules • Lots of affection (if they want it) I’m committed to making sure your pets feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away I am currently between jobs so my schedule is wide open! I have my own two fur babies who are my heart. With Sophia May and Mayhem I’m used to thinking on my feet so I can adapt to whatever schedule is needed. My goal is to keep things running smoothly while you are gone. Maintaining routines and schedules will help your baby feel safe and comfortable. I try to send daily photos and videos for security and peace of mind
“Tina was awesome!! We were nervous leaving our babies. We have a different schedule and our boys are used to it. You could tell she took excellent care of our boys. We left & came back to a clean home. When we have to travel again Tina will be our first call.”
“Erica was excellent to work with and I highly recommend her to any fellow pet parents in need of a good sitter. My chihuahua has some behavioral quirks but she handled them very well and also took great care of my home.”
About: Aside from caring for my own pets growing up, I have had 3+ years experience with dog walking and a variety of pet sitting (including overnight care). I am currently a student at NAU but I am flexible with schedules and available everyday. On weekdays I am available after 5pm and on weekends anytime! My living space is calm and comfortable. I have a safe environment for any pets. I ensure safety in my environment by keeping my space clean and pet friendly
“Brea and Jeffrey, we are SO lucky to have had you with our fur babies!! For anyone looking for a sitter for their babies, look no further! Brea went the extra mile on everything you could think of + more! From check ins to photos, we were kept in the loop every day, giving us a much needed ease being in a different state from our pup and kitties! Having someone be so respectful of our home, our pets, and their health and needs was so refreshing and will have us recommending and rebooking Brea any time we can for our trips away from home. Thank you again, a million times over for your incredible care and attentiveness to our bunch!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Valley Farms
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 847 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Valley Farms. 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 Valley Farms 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 Valley Farms 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 Valley Farms 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Valley Farms. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
