“Sydney was great with our very anxious and high-strung girl. She's a big dog, so it takes a lot of confidence to take that on, and I appreciate that. She also takes amazing dog pictures!”
“We LOVED having Alex as Ginger’s sitter. Alex took the time to learn about Ginger’s habits & needs (food, separation anxiety). They have daily updates and left our house spotless. Thanks so much, Alex!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I appreciate every minute I have with them and all animals. I’ve created my own dog walking business several years ago and gained lots of experience working with and observing the ways dogs function. I am currently Undergrad at UC Davis but use my free time to walk the dogs at Yolo County Animal Shelter. These days, I am working hard at school but appreciate the time I have with any animal! Besides the occasional study session or family vacation, I am free! I am comfortable crating, feeding, watering or walking any pets! I am happy to help take care of other household chores like watering plants or taking in mail!
About: My entire life, my family has had at least two dogs, so I'm very well versed and familiar with the care and attention that a variety of different dog breeds need to get. In addition, I have two kittens of my own, who are extremely well cared for. Animals are my passion in life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I can guarantee your fur babies will get all of the love, attention, and care in the world while I'm watching them. I'm a student and work part-time, so I'm busy but have a schedule that easily allows me to check in on your pets as-needed! I can check in frequently, spend hours with your pets, and sleep over if preferred. How I care for your pets depends on your personal instructions, boundaries, and expectations, and the specific needs of your pet, if applicable. I always closely follow all instructions and requests that I receive, so that I can best make your pet(s) comfortable and within their usual routines, and to best respect your home.
“Holly has watched our pets multiple times— she’s always thoughtful and communicative, and we leave town knowing with certainty that our pets are in amazing hands. When Holly sends photos or videos of our cats, they’re always at ease and doing their favorite activities (playing with their toys, making biscuits, and just generally having a great time.) Thank you so much for another great visit, Holly!”
“Dmitriy was a great sitter for our 2 month old Puppy, Willow. He arrived on time and ready to go. Willow is a high energy puppy that is very mouthy and still working on her potty training. Dmitriy dived right in and worked with her to have the best day! He was very good about sending me updates and photos, which really put me at ease. When I returned home Dmitriy related that it was a good day of play, naps, and no potty accidents!! I would recommend Dmitriy for his professionalism, patience, and good care for your pet!!”
“Mehma was patient and understanding. The bridge was closed on our way home when she was babysitting Luca. So we were late. Mehma was great about it. Always a smile and a positive attitude.”
“We are very thankful for Matt house and pet sitting during our vacation. It was a 10 day trip and its good to have peace of mind that someone like Matti is caring for our two pets. Taking out dog Bruno to the dog park was great for a high energy pup. We will definitely book him again!”
About: I have cared for a wide range of animals since my childhood on a small family farm. I have bottle fed kittens to goats, trained puppies to ducks, and cared for little piglets to senior dogs. I also have some experience with medical procedures with dogs and cats, to farm animals. Experience with cats with diabetes, pets with blindness, deafness, and immobility. I enjoy caring for animals of all shapes and sizes and good care and enrichment is always my top priority! I like to check on my animals and animals I’m caring for a minimum of 3 times a day for 30 minutes each. With cats I like to spend time playing, setting up enrichment activities, and learning how they are most comfortable. With dogs I like to do a minimum of 3 walks a day followed by some of their favorite activities. I believe pets should be checked on morning, afternoon and evening at minimum. I like to follow the routine of the pets parents to a T so as to not disturb the pets while their families are gone. I think having a routine is important for a pet especially when their people/family are gone.
“Ally came to my house to take care of my 12-week-old puppy while I was attending a wedding. She has visited with my puppy before, and when Ally walked into the house, my puppy was overjoyed to see her! Ally is highly attuned to my dog's needs. She plays games, cuddles, feeds, and even trains my puppy. While she was with my puppy, she sent me photos and updates, which were such a comfort! My house was clean and organized when I came home almost nine hours later, and my puppy was happy and relaxed. Ally is a rare gem!”
“Marissa was both professional and easy going, the perfect combination for a 2-week home stay with our cat and dog. I picked Marissa due to her experience in vet school since we have a senior dog. After our initial meet and greet, I knew she'd be a good fit. Marissa sent updates and photos but we also felt the freedom to focus on our trip knowing our pets were in good hands.”
“Shaquita was trustworthy, knowledgeable, and a great communicator! She really cared about my dog and asked thoughtful questions about caring for her and my home in my absence. She has worked with animals before and is studying to go to vet school! So I felt great about leaving my senior dog with her over the holiday. Will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thank you Shaquita!”
“Grace was amazing with our dogs! She kept us updated and they were well cared for. She reached out with any questions. She also took great care of our house and kept everything tidy for us. We would absolutely use her services again!”
“Shelby was awesome and I could tell my puppy was having a great time with her. With my night schedule, it was awesome to wake up to updates throughout the day, and to know that she also enjoyed my puppy’s company. Highly recommend!”
About: I have owned dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was born. Now, I have worked as a vet assistant for 6 years in both general practice and oncology. I have helped with emergencies for all kinds of breeds and done overnight care several times. I also work and volunteer at shelters consistently so I know how to deal with animal stress. I have never met an animal I didn't love no matter its personality and demeanor so I know they are in good hands. I am a college student but have gaps in my day to go back to my apartment and take them out. I would never leave a pet at home for more than 2 hours and live with just my fiance and I also well equipped in pet care, but I will be doing the caregiving. I love every furry friend and it would be a joy rather than a chore to help care for each pet. I am well versed in medication administration, feeding, playtime, small training activities, and more. Depending on the breed or species, I would ensure I am thorough with each pets need and go from there whether thats exercise and play or just chilling on the couch.
“Katherine did an amazing job with my pup Blue. She was very prompt and incredibly responsive sending updates all throughout the stay. She also went above and beyond by coming back to check in on her when we ran into some unexpected travel delays. Will use again and highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Webster
Mya was great! She’s very professional, on time, confirmed dates and time to meet and the animals loved her. When we arrived back home the dogs were excited to see us but were obviously well taken care of. I would absolutely book her to house sit for us again.
Kelly was so great with our fur baby, Nova! Nova is a pretty laid back girl, but since this was our first time using a pet sitting service instead of relying on friends or family, I was a little nervous and cautious about a few things... Kelly completely put my mind at ease and was so kind, accommodating, and easygoing about everything I asked for Novie! She stayed at our house with Nova and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and had plenty of company while we were away! (: She also sent us photos and video updates, which helped me feel so much more relaxed (it was wonderful seeing our girl being her happy, usual self)! I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone who will make sure both you and your pet have a great experience! (Knowing that she is also in a veterinary program gave me additional peace of mind because Nova sometimes has tummy troubles) I felt confident that if anything happened, Kelly would know how to help and make sure our girl had whatever she needed! We’re so grateful for the care she gave Nova and finding her for future trips!! (:
Mehma was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our dog and cat, along with our home while we were away. Really appreciated how responsive she was too, checking in with photos of our pets throughout the day. We’d be lucky to have Mehma pet sit for us again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,682 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Webster. 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 Webster 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 Webster 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 Webster 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.
