We had a fantastic experience with Becky! She was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about our pup. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We returned home to a clean house and, most importantly, a very happy dog. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend!

Sharon is a very warm, down-to-earth person. My 16 yo rescue dog, Fawn was very well taken care of. I was happy & lucky to find someone willing to stay in my home with my dog. Fawn has lost some vision and hearing so she does better in a familiar place. I appreciated getting photos and updates on my pup. I could completely relax and enjoy my 2-week vacation with family and friends, knowing my old girl was safe and loved. Sharon has a lot of experience with dogs from the years she had a business taking care of people’s dogs in her own home when her clients were away. I highly recommend Sharon!

Maisie was wonderful to work with from the very beginning. Our goldendoodle has quite the personality and can sometimes be intimidating when you first meet him but she was extremely patient and kind. When we returned from our trip, the house was spotless and dogs were very happy and well taken care of. Maisie communicated well each day and sent a ton of photos of the dogs doing various things throughout the day. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone safe and loving to take care of your fur babies while you’re away!

Alexandra was exactly what we were hoping for in a house and pet sitter. We live in a rather remote, rural area and she was comfortable with those challenges. She handled additional chores of watering gardens and feeding our wild birds and bats. Her daily reports and photos were appreciated, and communication was always timely. My husband returned home before I did and he reported that everything had been well tended and the home and property were super clean and tidy. And on top of all this, Alexandra is a delightful person, gentle and kind and she gave Rowdy all the love, attention and walks that he demands!! We have struggled to find capable sitters willing to go the (literal) extra miles to stay here and provide the care needed and are thrilled to have found Alexandra! We won't be going anywhere without her.....

About: Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family! If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss. I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!

I'm patient, reliable, and committed to following your dog's routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy.

Walks, playtime, cuddles, and enrichment. Careful attention to feeding schedules and medications (if needed). Respect for your home and clear communication throughout your trip.

I plan my time carefully so every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether your dog needs a daily walk or care while you're away, I'm committed to being dependable and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure before leaving, keep the home clean and respectful, and always use a leash during walks unless instructed otherwise in a safely enclosed area. I pay close attention to each dog's behavior and comfort level, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate with owners if I notice anything unusual. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

Kelly came for a meet and greet, and was engaging with both of our pups within minutes. We are new to the area, and so for our first sit just had a day out in town. She kept us up to date with pictures and notes about what the pups were doing, and was good about asking questions when needed. We will be happy to have Kelly sit for us again!

About: I have been a pet parent to lots of different types of furry, scaly, and feathered kids. We had a guinea pig that died at 8yo. I had a pot belly pig who thought he was an alligator, I got his thought he was a dog who had to go on the walks with the dogs twice a day. Twice a day sometimes three times a day I would take four dogs a goat and a pig for a walk. I work on an as needed basis and right now I am not needed so I am home. So when ever you need your fur baby checked on. Or need someone to either stay with them or somewhere for them to stay I am available. Do you not see pets as pets pets are family members. And because of this I will treat them as family members. My cats right now have beds at every room in the house. I make sure that they get some outside time to get sunshine I am growing them fresh grass every day inside along with fresh catnip they get new water three times a day. And when they start meowing at me I am literally stopping everything I am doing to go see what they need or want. And one cat likes to play the jealous game so she likes to be picked up and held like a baby trying to get my son her kid to pay attention to her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Whetstone

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 148 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whetstone. 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 Whetstone 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 Whetstone 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 Whetstone 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
