“Tami did an excellent job of caring for my three kitties (especially the one that requires extra feedings) in my home. Tami is conscientious - she sent photos and updated me on how my cats were doing each day. Thank you Tami!”
“Brandi is absolutely the best, wonderful with our two dogs, and consistently winning over our high anxiety and shy lil’ baby. We highly recommend Brandi if you are looking for a reliable dog sitter with heart.”
“Sydney was beyond Wonderful; Can't say enough good things! Her communication was quick and precise when setting up the dates and times. She was flexible when we had to change the date(s), both for sitting and a meet and greet and kept us informed with pics and texts when gone. We met twice beforehand for meet and greets and she was perfectly punctual, and even got there earlier than needed the day we left. Our excitable, hyper, 50lb baby, she handled with ease and left the home cleaner than needed, (ex - said leave dishes, and she did them anyway.) We don't go away often, but might be able to more now that we have Sydney in our back pocket. It's hard finding someone to trust, let alone who is willing to handle the nonstop energy of our guy and play fetch several times a day. Thank you, Sydney!!”
“Sam took excellent care of my dogs and home. I was happy to get pics and updates, as well as to come home to a clean house. He even washed the bedsheets ? I recommend Sam for both house and pet sitting!”
“Abigail is wonderful. She takes great care of our pups (even when they’re a bit naughty). And, when we’re away, she takes care of our home like it’s her own. So grateful for her help!”
“Riley took great care of our GSD! On top of that, she was extremely flexible and considerate when we had to modify the dates and times due to a family emergency. Shadow was well loved and cared for, and we received clear and honest updates while we were away. Thank you, Riley!”
“Stephen and Wipawee watched my dog and my sister’s dog at my house while we went away on a family vacation. The dogs were well cared for, had plenty of attention and were taken great care of! Couldn’t have asked for better sitters.”
“Hannah stayed in our home and watched our dog for a week. He is an older dog and needs medicine twice a day plus some extra TLC getting up and down steps or even the couch. She was wonderful! She was always in communication with me and sent pictures all the time which really put my mind at ease. She took such great care of him and our house too. I would highly recommend her!”
About: From working/volunteering at shelters to pet sitting for friends and family, I have 10+ years of experience caring for furry friends of all ages, personalities, and sizes! Most all of my pet care has been limited to cats and dogs, but I am willing to work with small critters, birds and reptiles with the right care instructions/tutorials. I am not typically squeamish, so I am open to handling clean up and medication - please message me for specifics. As a dog mom myself, I understand that each pet requires different levels of care and attention, and am willing to meet them where they’re at! However, I do not offer training services and might not be the most compatible caretaker for pets that exhibit aggressive behaviors (I am open to discussing). Additionally, I am a full time graduate student, so care in the early morning and evenings will work best for my week day schedule. I will be available some holidays (i.e., Thanksgiving). My availability may also change from time to time, so please be sure to check my profile or message me. Choosing me means your pet will receive quality care, and that all the updates you receive will include cute pics! As a full time student, my weekday availability might mean limited check-ins, but your pet is always the priority! - Monday & Tuesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Wednesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 7 PM - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Friday: 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM; after 3:00 PM - Saturday & Sunday: Flexible! I will need a few hours in the morning and some afternoons to volunteer. For pet sitting, I can provide the following: - Feeding and hydration - Exercise and play - Maintenance and cleaning of pets environment (e.g., litter box, crate, etc.) - Medication administration - Light housekeeping (e.g., bringing mail in, watering plants, taking out trash, etc.) - Text/photo/video updates
About: I’ve had the privilege to house sit, dog walk, and LOVE 💙, my friends and clients fur babies. I make sure all of their needs are taken care of. I’m currently working 4 AM to 1230 Monday through Thursday and Saturday, but as of April 16, I’ve decided the love and passion I have for caring for your babies excite me a lot more. I will be more available to accompany your needs while you’re away for work or on a vacation with your family, yet I have had many clients& their babies have no issues when I housesit/dog walk. I treat animals with love, care, and respect as if they were my own. I will follow your directions on how your fur baby likes to be cared for.
“Leora stayed at our house for a week to watch our dog while we were out of town and she was amazing! She provided regular updates and took great care of our dog - even including taking her to the vet and taking great care of her when she was sick. Our house was very tidy when we got home and our dog was happy! Thanks, Leora!”
About: Hello, I am 24 and love animals. I have always had dogs in my house (large dogs). Now I have my own dog with my Husband. I have lots of experience helping out family with caring for animals and then started branching out through word of mouth. I know how much I struggle to find a pet sitter I trust and want to be that person for others. I’m currently working at a dental office and on a break from school. Thankfully me and my husband have a great routine and balance with our pup that I can be flexible with my schedule for your pup. I would love to provide your dog with anything it may need. From snuggles and love to a quick bathroom break. I love to get steps in during my day as well and can always bring your pup along.
About: I have been dog sitting consistently for over a year now! I previously lived with a dog that I loved, and I am very much missing my furry friend ! I'm unable to have my own because animals are not allowed in my current residence. I would love to take care of your dog/cat to help me get my animal fix in, and help you out! I work everyday Saturday - Wednesday. Thursday, Friday off. Evenings are always open, as I am out of work by 530. I can do mornings very easily. And outings before bed! First and foremost, I am respectful of all house rules. I have been sitting friends, families, and strangers' dogs for over a year now. I mainly enjoy reading, or watching mindless television with your furry friends. Cuddles are always welcome and appreciated! :)
“Susana is the best. We have used her for our 2 dogs on multiple occasions. She sends lots of pictures, spends a lot of time exercising them in our yard, and checks in if anything unusual occurs. Our home is always well cared for as well. Never a worry while away.”
About: I am going through a divorce and want to stay busy and find joy. I love dogs and have had them my whole life. I recently lost my dogs to old age and need a good dog fix in my life. I dog sit/walk for friends and family all the time. I do work full time, so please contact for additional days/times needed. I work full time and going through a divorce. I am looking to stay busy with activities that I enjoy, and dogs make me extra happy! I can easily assist with any doggy needs.

About: I have had pets my whole life. Currently I have 3 cats, 3 dogs, a hamster, and fish. I have also had bunnies, hermit crabs, and many reptiles. There is not an animal I don't love caring for or being around. I am good with animals of all ages and sizes!! I currently am a homemaker with an open schedule. I am available morning til night and overnights if needed. I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I care for every pet like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and rest, while giving them plenty of love and attention. I keep their environment clean and safe, and I make sure they get the exercise, enrichment, and companionship they need to feel comfortable and happy while you’re away.
“We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!”
About: I have over 35 years of caring for animal experience, very trustworthy, and very well-known in my community. I will care for your animals as my own. I do work a full-time job. My schedule is after 5 o’clock during the week and available most weekends. Able to adjust schedule when needed. I have a fenced in yard. I am able to crate your animal easily if needed.

About: I grew up in a home with various furry friends, and as a teenager got my first job working with animals at a pet store. I worked there for several years eventually managing the store and being responsible for the caring of many different types of pets. This included small animals, birds, and reptiles as well! I currently have a well trained and friendly 5 year old yellow lab and assist friends and family with their pet sitting needs. I work full-time on weekdays but have a hybrid job with the ability to work from home as needed, as long as a private internet connection is available. I’m incredibly flexible and do not have any obligations outside of that aside from my dog, who has alternative caregivers if I’m not at home. Any instructions given will be followed exactly, written instructions are preferred so I can ensure I’m maintaining the best level of care. I am okay with being active or relaxed, whatever your pet needs!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Tami did a great job with our black lab Hallie. I appreciated the extra care she gave her after our day was naughty and ate a large portion of glucosamine should not have. (She is a counter surfer). She called right away and monitored her-all was good. She also watered our plants for us which I really appreciated. This was our first time having Tami and I would highly recommend her. We are having her again at end of September. Great job!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our precious and energetic boy! She was so personable, caring, and attentive, and it was clear right away that he was in great hands. She kept us updated with pictures, which we absolutely loved, and was very responsive from the get-go. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was being well cared for. We would definitely recommend her and would happily have her care for our boy again! ❤️🐾. Thanks Lydia!!
Lydia did a great job with our 2 dogs! My dogs are getting older and finding a good dog sitter to care for them and their health stuff has been harder. But Lydia was very understanding about it all! She was also really great about sending me updates for the dogs. I would definitely recommend her!
Tami is a excellent pet sitter. She sat for several days with our cat Inca. We found Tami to be very attentive to keeping us informed about Inca through text messages and pictures. She is reliable and homest. I would highly recommend Tami for any pet sittimg job.
This was my first time using a dog/house sitter. Tami was great with my Labrador. She took care of him and my house for 2 days. I received pictures and text updates over the 2 days. She made me feel he was well taken care of. Best of all my dog really liked her. I will definitely use Tami again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Vernon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,349 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vernon. 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 Vernon 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 Vernon 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 Vernon 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.
