“This was my first time ever using Rover. I was very thankful to have found Ellen. We welcomed a new puppy into our house 2 weeks before Thanksgiving. So, leaving him at a kennel for four days was not an option. Ellen came to our home and stayed with our new puppy and older kitty. She was gray with them and sent lots of pics. She was respectful of our home and even got our mail in and the trash cans up neither item did I ask her to do. Everything was back in its place when we arrived home. So awesome to have found this option! Thank you Ellen!!”
“10/10 recommend Karin! She took wonderful care of my car and dog while I was out of town for two weeks. It made me nervous to leave them for so long, but Karin quickly showed how much love and affection they’d get while she was there!”
“Kyla was dependable and attentive to our dog Rue. She took daily care of Rue including medications and sent us daily updates. She also left the house looking just as when we left it. Highly recommend.”
“Sage was fantastic, they cleaned up after themselves, was a great communicator, was super patient with my anxious pup. Couldn’t ask for someone better, will definitely be asking them back!”
“Jada was great! This was the first time we’ve left our kitty with anyone other then family or friends. Jada sent pictures everyday and kept us updated on our boys day. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“I was in CA for four days and Gianna stayed in my home. She sent me lots of photo updates every day and kept them safe and my home well kept too! Definitely recommend and will rebook again.”
“Heather was brave enough to house sit our cane corso for us, knowing he was going to be scared of her and not likely to warm up to her. She was very patient with him. She said he did finally come take a treat from her but immediately ran away. This was probably the best experience we’ve had with him as he was able to go in and out on his, and he ate every meal after she would leave. We’re very grateful for her!”
“Basma is an incredible sitter and I would highly recommend her for any furry friend!!! She watched my recently adopted dog for four days and really put my mind at ease during my trip. I received many updates on the status of my dogs, including the cutest videos and photos, and I knew she was taking great care of my pup. My dog will definitely miss the undivided attention and love Basma gave him and we will definitely be calling her again in the future!”
“Emily was great at keeping me updated on my dogs and sent photos frequently. They were happy and healthy when I returned from my trip. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Amy stayed with my fur babies during Christmas. I really appreciate her availability and it helps my peace of mind knowing my cats are getting comfortable with a consistent and loving caregiver. I will certainly use her for future bookings. She provides daily updates and photos of my babies as they sun themselves and during feedings.”
“I can’t recommend Gabriela enough! She helped me out on very short notice, and I’m so grateful she was available. My dog can be a handful—he’s big (around 100 pounds) and very affectionate—but she handled him with so much patience and confidence. It’s clear she really understands dogs, especially larger breeds, and knows how to manage their energy while still giving them the love and attention they need. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs, Gabriela is the one!”
“Reliable, thorough and kind! Damica took care of Rocky and our house while we were away on vacation and sent multiple pictures everyday without prompting. It felt relieving to know our dog was in great hands.”
“Abigail immediately instilled such confidence for us leaving our Kolbe with her, it was such a relief. She’s extremely professional, highly communicative, easy to engage with, and Kolbe seemed to love being with her. He was totally his normal self when we returned which I think speaks volumes in puppy language. Very happy with Abigail’s service and will be booking her again!”
“Absolutely was a life saver for me this past week. Incredible communication, went out of her way to be flexible for me, sent me updates as I needed them, and kept me up to date on every detail of her weekend with Bella. I would book her 100x over and have absolutely zero concerns she would be perfect for anybody in any situation! Cannot thank her enough!!!!”

Lindi was great with our dog. We have her house sit for two weeks, and she provided regular updates and took care of our girl while we were on vacation. Our dog is senior, so she had some extra needs - like frequent potty breaks and special food/ meds requirement, and Lindi did great with her. ( thanks, Lindi for all the love and care!).
Ellen was amazing. We will definitely use her again if she’s available and wants to come back! We have 2 cats and 2 dogs, one of which is anxious and takes a while to warm up. We had Ellen spend some time with our pets beforehand (given the anxious one) and EVERY visit she was on time and my pets loved her. She sent us a ton of pictures and updates which was great since I was a little nervous to leave our anxious girl for the first time.
I booked Journie to stay with my 12-year-old, blind American Eskimo and could not have been happier with how things turned out. She stayed in our home for 9 days and when I came back, everything looked just as I had left it. Spotless! She took great care of my sweet Sadie, administering her insulin shots every morning and night, walking her daily, sitting outside weather permitting, and playing ball on occasion. Sadie lets me know if her sitter is warm and welcoming or not, she won't speak to me for at least a day, will even growl if I try to pet her if her if the experience was subpar. But with Journie, that was not the case. Sadie was her usual happy and loving self when I returned, telling me she was well taken care of. Journie also took pictures and texted me often with short updates. She was very transparent upfront on what days she would be gone all day for work, which allowed me to reach out to a neighbor to let Sadie out mid-day for a potty break. I was extremely happy with Journie's care for Sadie and highly recommend her. I will definitely be reaching out to her again. Thank you, Journie!
Courtney was great! She sent a lot of pictures & communicated everyday on how Willie was doing. It definitely put our minds at ease knowing our little guy was being treated so good. She was great with giving him his needed eye drops everyday & we could tell when we got home they were administered correctly. She also took great care of our home. I would definitely recommend her.
Brittany has become a go-to house sitter for me. My dog loves her. Her schedule aligns really well with my remote working schedule so the pal is never alone for long periods. I can leave the house with complete peace of mind knowing she’s going to be here for both short and longer stays. Thank you Brittany!!!
Cecilia did an amazing job watching our dog and house while we were away on vacation. She was reliable, communicative, and took wonderful care of everything. Our pup absolutely loved her! We would highly recommend Cecilia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

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 Wynnedale 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 Wynnedale 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Wynnedale 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
