“Shantanice was amazing! She took excellent care of our home and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dogs clearly loved her and were so happy and well cared for when we returned. We would absolutely hire her again without hesitation!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and I absolutely love being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just hanging out, I genuinely enjoy their company. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who are still learning the ropes to older dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I always try to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I’m available almost every day Monday through Friday, so pet care fits really well into my weekly routine. I love being around animals and make time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. Whether your dog needs a daily walk, some company while you’re away, or extra attention as a puppy or senior dog, I’m happy to help. I treat every pet like they’re my own, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I pay close attention to their routines, make sure they feel comfortable, and follow any instructions you leave so they get the care they’re used to. My goal is always for both you and your pet to feel comfortable while they’re in my care.
“I’ve already left one review for Ellie but have to leave another one as she’s become my go to sitter for Pax! I’m comfortable w her in my house and w my baby. Super easy to communicate with, always respectful of my space: I no longer have anxiety when I leave town and that’s such a nice change.”
“Nate was a fantastic sitter. We had him come in for a date night so we didn't have to feel rushed, but he still made sure he knew about all the things he might need to take care of while we were gone. He was very good about being in contact before and during his time watching Rae. Would definitely recommend.”
“Makenzie house sat for us again while we were on our honeymoon in Mexico, and she was wonderful as usual. Thanks so much Makenzie for taking care of our furs, sending pictures and updates and giving us peace of mind that they’re happy!”
“This was Briley’s second stay with our pups and once again, she did a wonderful job. Great communicator and gives us the peace of mind that our pups are well taken care of and loved on.”
“Went away for a family vacation for a week and Jenna did an absolutely phenomenal job caring for our dog. Sent a lot of pictures and constant updates to give us peace of mind when we were away! Would definitely recommend Jenna!”
About: Since I was a kid, I've been surrounded by pets. My dogs have been my buddies, showing me the ropes of training and taking care of furry pals. And you bet, I've also chilled with plenty of cool cats along the way. Whether it's dogs or cats, I've got the experience and love to keep them happy and well-cared for. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule and routine. I've tailored my commitments to ensure that I'm never away from home for more than three hours at a stretch, giving your furry friend the attention and care they deserve. With my wife working from home three days a week, there's always someone around to keep our pup company. And on weekends, we make it a priority to spend quality time together, cuddling with our pup and exploring the great outdoors with walks in the park. At home or at clients' places, pets get personalized care. We're lucky to have a private dog park nearby for playtime. Also, safe trails offer scenic walks. Plus, our pet spa ensures comfortable baths for a relaxing experience.
“First time using Rover. Karen was very accommodating allowing for a meet beforehand. Photos of our pups were great, as were updates. She clearly loves animals and ours seemed very happy with Karen. Highly recommend Karen!”
“Jennifer was so good with my dogs! I felt very comfortable with her staying with them. We already have her scheduled for our next trip. 🙂 I would definitely recommend her!!!”
About: I am based in San Francisco and will travel to other cities in California if I can get there by public transportation. I travel by e-bike and public transport. I am an honest, reliable, trustworthy person who takes responsibility seriously. I will take great care with your beloved animals and with your home. I love animals of all kinds and have looked after cats of every temperament, many breeds of dogs as well as chickens, turkeys, goats and fish! I feed, play and groom animals according to your instructions and always love to give pets extra love and attention. Frequently, both dogs and cats who are not friendly right away, or who may be shy or reserved, come right over and cuddle with me. Many pet parents are happily surprised when they see this happen! I am an artist and a real homebody and spend most of everyday in the home with your pets. I'm constantly taking photos and videos and will send the cutest ones to the "parents." I would do the same for you! When you have an overnight sitter, your home is protected by having someone there while you are away and pets get to feel the safety and comfort of being in their own environment, reducing the stresses of transporting them, boarding them with other animals they don't know and other discomforts of being in an unknown environment. I will be in the home most of the day, every day and can play with your pups and your kitties as much as they crave! I love caring for animals and spending time with them! And while I am sitting for you, your pets' well-being is my number 1 priority! I am always keeping an eye on things and making sure everyone is healthy, safe and feeling loved. :) I make caring for your pets and your home a priority in every way! I pay attention at all times to all the animals under my care to make sure everyone is healthy, happy and feeling loved and safe! I follow your instructions regarding feeding, playing and grooming.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waldron
We love Katelyn! She’s dependable and very good with our Mari. She got locked out of our house while sitting. Our front door is tricky, and she contacted us right away after several attempts. We really had no more advice than what she was already doing. So she continued to try and finally got in. I was so thankful she just didn’t give up and walk away. She was truly tested and she showed her loyalty. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
We had a wonderful experience with our house and pet sitter! She stayed with our dog and cat for 6 days and truly went above and beyond. Communication was great the entire time. She was very attentive to our pets’ needs, carefully following medication schedules and dietary restrictions without any issues. Most importantly, she gave them plenty of love and attention, which meant so much to us. We came home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and caring sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Waldron
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Waldron on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,567 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Waldron. 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 Waldron 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 Waldron 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 Waldron 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.
