“Kailey took amazing care of my dog, cat, and home while I was away on vacation. She sent daily updates and photos that let me know everything was going well during her week long stay. I highly recommend her.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience having Kali stay with our dogs over the 4th of July weekend! She came by the house before our trip to meet our dogs, learn their routine, and get familiar with our home. Throughout the weekend she was an excellent communicator, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. When we got home, the house was spotless, our dogs were happy and relaxed, and she even surprised us with the sweetest painted portraits of each pup. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be using her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog and house sitter!”
“Emma has by far been the best rover we have used since living here and would highly recommend her for your pets! She took great care of our two dogs who don’t like to make anything easy. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every age size and breed since I was 20. I grew up around dogs and throughly enjoy and care for each and everyone of them like they are my own family! As they are yours and deserve to be treated with as much respect and care when you’re outside the home! I do have my own pup who is very friendly and loves to play we come as a pair who will love to play with your animals! I work full time and do pet sitting/ walking part time! I’m willing to do drop in visits or staying in home to help the dog/cat acclimate to you being gone! Staying in home I will play with the animal dog or cat and take them outside for potty breaks (dog) sand will clean the litter box daily (cat). I understand each animal has their on personality so I would prefer to meet the animal prior to sitting so that we may get used to each other! I’ve watched and cared for many pets in the manhattan junction city area for years and would love to give your pet the love and care needed when you’re away!
About: The go-to friend if you need to go out of town to come in and check on your pets! Very flexible with house sittings and locations serviced. I do work full time Sunday - Thursday but I can use my lunch break to stop in! :) I work full time but I do have an hour lunch I can use to give your pet a break during the weekdays, free on weekends! (Fri/Sat) Pets are treated with care and respect. I understand they are the "boss" of the house while the owner is away and I will make sure they continue to follow a routine!
“Outstanding experience! Communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and the genuine care shown every step of the way. Felt completely supported and in great hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have a strong background in animal care, with a degree in Animal & Poultry Sciences and hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, livestock, and many other species. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician and in a variety of animal-care settings, including nonprofit veterinary clinics, wildlife sanctuaries, private practices, and animal shelters. I have experience with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs, so hopefully I can meet the needs of both you and your pets! I’ve been walking dogs in shelter settings since I was 15, including serving as a dog-walking volunteer leader. In that role, I helped walk dogs who were available for adoption as well as more cautious or fearful dogs who required extra patience and awareness. These experiences taught me how to safely read animal body language, respect their boundaries, and adjust my approach to each individual dog. I’m comfortable with energetic pets, shy or anxious animals, senior care, medication routines, and maintaining feeding and exercise schedules. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or health and take pet safety seriously. I’m open to working with fearful or reactive dogs when their owners feel I’m a good fit. I have personal experience caring for a rescued pit bull who can be reactive toward some dogs and people, and consistent training has made significant improvements. That experience has also given me a lot of empathy for owners who struggle to find caregivers they trust, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you are in a similar spot. While I do have experience, I genuinely just love spending time with animals! I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and attention I’d want for my own. I welcome any questions or concerns you may have. I know finding the right fit for your pet can be stressful, and I’m happy to chat to make sure you feel comfortable and confident in their care. I work a typical 8-hour schedule in Manhattan during the week, usually from 7:00 AM–3:30 PM. While my workday is 8 hours, my start and end times can vary, so I’m happy to discuss alternative times if needed to work around your pet’s schedule. I’m flexible before and after work for dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication, or checking in on your pets. My weekends are much more flexible, and I’m available for multiple visits throughout the day or to spend extended time with pets who need extra company and care at home. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both your needs and your pet’s routine! When caring for pets in their home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding, medications, exercise, and any other instructions you provide. I understand that every pet and household is different, and I’m careful to respect both. I take animal body language and behavior seriously and always give pets the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me. This is especially important with shy, fearful, or reactive animals. I’m attentive during walks and make safety a priority around doors, gates, other animals, and unfamiliar environments. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’m Mark. I live in Manhattan with my wife, dog, and 16 year-old cat. I’ve had Dalmatians (high energy, stubborn) since I was a kid. I have experience with companion dogs, working dogs, elderly dogs, and have even helped my wife train our current pup (Pepper) as a registered therapy dog. I’ll make sure to take good care of your four-legged friends whether it’s on walks, drop-ins, or house sitting if needed! I recently left the Army and am figuring out what I want to do next. This means I’m free in the mornings and afternoons (9-3) weekdays and weekends for walks and drop-ins. I can accommodate house sitting on weekends with some advance notice. I take my own dog on hour-long walks most days, and she gets plenty of extra exercise playing in my fenced backyard and helping me dig holes in my garden. I understand all pets may not be up for that much activity and can adjust based on your needs!
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life and take great care of them. Also have dog/animal sat for many friends and family, always so fun! I am currently am a student at Kansas State, but most days my classes are over by 2 pm and I also have breaks before that. I am very good at following directions so I will follow those that you give me to a tee. I treat everyone’s house with respect and care.
“Sydney was great. I like that she met our foster dog before hand and was confident in caring for our Boxer. She sent updates and was responsive to questions before and during her watching of our foster dog. I look forward to her help again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently share my home with two dogs and two cats who are truly part of the family. I have years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pets and homes, and I love making every animal feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their humans are away. Whether they’re snuggling on the couch or playing outside, I’m happiest when animals feel like their owners never left! I’m available at all times, and caring for your pets and home is my top priority. I never rush time with them — I make sure they get the attention, routine, and gentle care they need to feel safe and relaxed. Your animals will be treated with patience, love, and the same dedication I give my own. I treat every home with the same care and respect as my own. You can trust that your space will be kept clean, safe, and exactly as you left it. My priority is making sure your pets feel secure, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. Their safety, routine, and comfort always come first.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 120 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Zeandale. 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 Zeandale 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 Zeandale 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 Zeandale 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.
