“Catie was a wonderful dog sitter! Our dog normally gets depressed when we travel and she'll not eat. It's been a game changer having Catie dog sit at the house. Our dog actually ate and was happy! She left a sweet note and took great care of not only the dog, but the house as well. Thanks Catie!! We'll definitely be rebooking.”
“Jonah was spectacular!! My Winston was very well cared for and loved on while I was gone. In addition, my house remained clean and Jonah even put the sheets in to wash and dry! He maintained the security of my home and was super respectful. Hoping to make him my "go to" sitter!”
“Christiana watched our two Rhodesian ridgebacks in our home. She was professional, respectful and communicated well during the entire stay. It felt good to know our dogs were in good hands. Highly recommend and would use again!”
About: I've grown up with pets, worked at a pet sitting company for a summer, follow pet care instructions, and understand they're your most prized possession and will therefore treat them with the utmost will love and care. I work Mon-Fri, 7am-4pm, and can take care of pets before or after work as well as during a lunch break as long as location is around 15 minutes away from work. I have grown up with pets, and love giving them attention. I will make sure they eat well, get plenty of exercise, and stay healthy and out of trouble.
“Alaina was a gem of a house and pet sitter! We received regular updates, she was so attentive to all of our animals and their needs, and you can tell that she genuinely loves to take care of fur babies. We would definitely trust her again in the future.”
“Wow. Avery was excellent! We were visiting from out of state, so everything was new for our dog who suffers from severe separation anxiety. Avery stopped in for a visit the day before we needed her so she could meet us and the dog. Our 11 year old English Setter has some health challenges, and Avery was able to follow all the crazy instructions. Avery sent us pictures of Bexley showing that the dog was not just fine, she was great. And Avery went above and beyond tidying up the Airbnb to help us get ready to leave the next morning. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for neighbors and friends ever since I was a teenager. I would be more than happy to help you and your dog.

I work during the week, but I am available in the evenings and weekends I live close by a number of parks that I can take your dog to run around. I have a dog crate and doggie bowl for your little friend.

“Shanika has house sat for us a few times now and watched our two dogs. She had been our best dog sitter we’ve found through Rover. Highly recommend her. It’s been so hard finding a reliable dog sitter since we moved to UT and she has been nothing short of amazing.”
“Having Andy watch our dog (and tarantula) was just perfect. He took care of our house just like it was his own and our pup couldn't have been happier. He was very communicative and washed all the bedding before he left. We will definitely be using him again!”
About: I've owned and cared for various pets over the past 20 years. I've gained experience caring for animals outside of my own pets by working at shelters and vet clinics.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was in middle school! I’m very responsible and make sure your pet gets the care they need! I also trained our families dog when we rescued her. I work full time as a dental assistant, but only 3-4 days a week. I’m looking to dog sit on weekends, or walks after 5 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. I had dogs in my house growing up, and can easily read signals on what they need. I can brush, feed, walk, play with, etc. daily. Whatever the dog’s schedule or routine is, I can easily follow that! I can also tidy up the house if it’s an overnight stay for no extra charge!
“Sarah took great care of my five month old puppy. She got him out to parks and took him with her to meet the children she interacts with at her job. I am very happy with her and will definitely use her again”
“Saige was amazing! She respected all of our specific requests, communicated exceptionally well, clarified things she wasn't sure about, and sent pics and videos. She really went beyond our expectations. Would definitely use again.”
“Lyamca saved the day and was able to watch my boy last minute - literally agreeing to sit him the day of!! She did a great job, sent pics and communicated throughout her stay, and I came home to a happy pup!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,963 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vivian Park. 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 Vivian Park 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 Vivian Park 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 Vivian Park 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.
