“Stayed overnight with our 3 dogs. She was very flexible with our house and living situation being under construction. Provided cuddles and care to the dogs. Very thankful to have the house and pets taken care of while we were away. Thank you!”
“Are dogs are always comfortable and well taken care of when Sarah stays with them. She is a responsible sitter and we are always pleaser with her communication and updates.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth as my dog sitter. She was always on time, communicated clearly, and attentive to both my dogs individual needs. It gave my peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She was also very flexible when my work schedule changed at the last minute, I really appreciate that. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her.”
“Rebooked Dakota and was on a week long trip this time. Good updates, love the pics and the videos, and he notified me that my dog may have an allergy that I didn't even notice!”
“Chelsea loves animals, and animals love Chelsea! Chelsea is an excellent house sitter, drop-in sitter, dog walker, pet care person of all stripes! We highly recommend her as safe and efficient. Our little dog simply loves her!”
“Marcie did a great job with our dogs, and we're relieved to found someone so reliable. She dog sat at our house and was very communicative. She left the house cleaner than we left it, sent photos and videos, and left a note with info about her schedule/routine. We are definitely going to book with her in the future!”
About: I guarantee to treat every animal with the same love and care as my own. And beyond that, the same love and care as my children. I am self employed and can make time for any animal any day through my open schedule. I make my own schedule day by day. I have a fenced yard with one small very sweet loving dog. She has gotten along well with any animal she has encountered. I trained her myself.
About: I have always been around dogs growing up. I had a childhood chihuahua who I raised and was able to gather valuable memories and experience in senior dog care. When I was younger I took care of a litter of puppies for my neighbor while he worked and taught basic commands. I am well-rounded with small dogs from chihuahuas to larger breeds like german shepherds and malamutes. I have experience in medicine distribution for dogs on different medications and other special needs care. I am currently enrolled in university online and currently unemployed so I am able to give your pets plenty of love and care. I do have my own pet at home but I have someone available to take care of her while I take care of your lovely pets! I do not currently offer boarding in my own home. I will care for your pets in your home with intricate care and attention by following any feeding schedules, routines, and other special needs per-dog basis.
“We were very pleased having Alec housesit for us! He was very friendly, on time, conscientious and the dogs enjoyed snuggling with him. We definitely plan on using his services again and would recommend him to others. 😁”
“Eden was absolutely wonderful! She did a great job with my two boys, sent lots of pictures, and stayed in constant communication about what was going on!! Will absolutely be using her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for my friends and family since I was 12. I’ve done everything from walks to weekend sleepovers. I have experience with all types and ages of dogs. I also have experience administering medications and accommodating around injuries and allergies (pills, eyedrops, creams, and cones) I currently attend Perry Technical institute so I have class Monday-Thursday 7:30am-4:00pm. I am available anytime that I’m not in class. Im very flexible so feel free to reach out whenever, I take same day requests. You and your fur baby’s comfortability are my top priority. I am open to visits before services to confirm that your dog and I will get along. I am more than willing to send updates as frequently as you’d like so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing. I also double-check that everything is locked after services to ensure your dogs safety.
“Shelly was exceptional! She is kind, and has a tender heart toward animals. She works very hard at making sure she does everything correctly. I know Buddy had a great time with her because after we returned he was sitting outside waiting for her to come back. She left the house in excellent condition. We will definitely use her again.”
“Gunnar was super responsive to specific pet care requests and willing to accommodate our girls. He sent us updates and continued to work on training that we were working on so our puppy wouldn’t regress too much. Will definitely be using Gunnar in the future.”
“Diana took care of our quirky catahoula dog like he was her own! He had so much fun with her and was just as we left him on return. She also took great care of our house. She sent lovely fun pictures of them playing and hanging out! We appreciated the updates and the prompt communication. Pets (and humans!) would be lucky to have her care for them while away. Highly recommend!”
About: I have cared for mostly pit bull type dogs and unwanted other dogs (seniors, chewers)- I have a lot of care and patience for animals of all kinds. I have a full time job during the week but am available weekends and some holidays if you want to go out of town. I usually feel a little guilty leaving my dogs behind while I go camping but many federal lands don’t accept dogs, even on a leash. Just know they will be cared for and played with at my house. I usually get out once a day to go to the parks with my dogs so I would love to take yours too! I feed my dogs a special dinner nightly and in the morning. They have a doggy door they go in and out of to a large fenced back yard. They are allowed on the furniture and are walked to run off leash in a park on a daily basis.
“Harley did a great job for us and we would definitely book again with her. She was especially attentive to our dog as we asked and the house was in perfect condition upon our return.”
About: I’ve been responsible for dogs and cats since I was eight years old and feel very comfortable in providing quality care for your fur babies! I am currently going to college full-time to become a nurse. I am available at moments notice for your convenience. I can be contacted same day for your needs. I am unable to provide care for animals in my apartment but able to take your fur babies out to play or for a walk at moments notice.
“Luckie did a great job caring for my dogs. She sent me lots of pictures and loved them like they were her own. I told my son that I better get a hotdog when I came home so I could win them back to me”

FAQs for House Sitting - Wapato
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 116 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wapato. 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 Wapato 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 Wapato 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 Wapato 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 Wapato. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
