“Paige did such an amazing job taking care of our girls and our home while we were away. She displayed excellent professionalism at our meet and greet and the girls quickly warmed up to her. She maintained excellent communication by providing multiple updates with pictures and a video!”
“Chelsea was wonderful, we booked her last minute after a family member became ill and could not sit our dog, Kenzie. She stayed over night and sent pictures and updates. I felt very confident leaving our home and dog in her care. Will definitely use her again.”
“Jennifer was wonderful. We were on vacation and needed someone to watch our boys (one elderly and one high-energy) while we went out to dinner. They were both immediately at ease with Jennifer - which allowed us to enjoy our night and not worry about them. Next time we’re in town, we’ll contact her again for sure.”
“Maddie was fantastic- great communication, asked great questions, left our house spotless and skillfully cared for our three somewhat needy cats! Would highly recommend to everyone! Thank you again Maddie!”

“Gabrielle did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs for an overnight visit. We have one very nervous little boy, an energetic “middle child,” and a slow, super-senior female. Pleased to say we came home to 3 happy dogs!”
“Aubrey did a wonderful job looking after our home and five animals. We came home to a spotless house and happy cats and dogs! She was an excellent communicator and provided nice updates and pictures. We look forward to hiring her again!”
About: Excited to meet your pet! Experienced with seniors to puppies! Reliable, professional & local. I love playtime & happy to visit dog parks (if you like). This is now my full time job! My days are built around walks and i am flexible, local and reachable. I keep my calendar current and don't take bookings I cannot make. I do a meet & greet before every visit so we can align on your pups needs. You will get a note from me after each visit so you know how everything went. You will also get photos and I am happy to hear from you as well.
About: I've taken care of a wide variety of animals my whole life. While I love all types of pets, dogs are my favorite. I have lots of experience. One of my dogs was a therapy dog within the public school system as part of a literacy program for elementary children. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live close to two pet friendly parks. My schedule is very flexible. There is always someone at home 24/7 so your furry friend will never be lonely. I can board, sit, or walk almost anytime. I have a nice fenced in backyard and live very close to two pet friendly parks. I have a very friendly corgi named Rocco to keep your fur babies company.
“Megan was fantastic! She provided regular updates, photos and videos about our girl while we were away. This was the first time we’d been away from Joy for over a week and we will certainly contact Megan again when we’re away in the spring.”
“Carolyn did a great job caring for our pups and home. Our place was left in great shape and she was more than willing to help clean up after our advanced senior dog who also receives medication. Thank you!!”
“Brooke is a wonderful pet sitter! Amigo is a rescue and had a sad beginning so he is sometimes withdrawn around strangers but he immediately loved Brooke! She is so reliable and shows up on time and lets you know her schedule in advance. She is great with animals and a very sweet person. She is very smart and catches on quickly. Reluctantly highly recommend her because if everyone uses her she might be too busy when we need her next and I definitely want her the next time we need a sitter!”
“Ryan was very kind and sweet to my two boys. They were happy when I got home and the house was as I left it. He was super thorough in gathering the information he needed to care for the boys during our meet and greet. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had many dogs and cared for many others. It is a true labor of love for me and something I really love doing. I’m retired so my schedule is super flexible. Whatever your schedule I can probably accommodate it. Give me a try and let’s see if we can work it out. I love them but I don’t board dogs (sorry). Couldn’t negotiate that successfully with my wife. I do love spending time with them on walks or in your home.
About: I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds of all ages for 30+ years. My pet sitting services are UNIQUE as I offer a premium experience focusing on personalized care and comfort by servicing ONLY 1 PET/FAMILY at a time in my CAGE-FREE spacious home. Outside of the basics of food and water, I believe pets should be provided with plenty of love and attention as well. For young dogs, I provide ample playtime and exercise to keep them mentally and physically healthy. As senior dogs may have individual needs in terms of exercise, diet, and medical care, I am comfortable and knowledgeable in addressing those needs. I offer flexible scheduling, transportation and light grooming at reasonable rates. I have come to the reality that it is possible to make a living doing what I love the most! 🐾Please note, if a desired date/time appears unavailable, reach out as adjustments can sometimes be made.🐾 By providing a CAGE-FREE home-like environment and my one-on-one attention, I cater to their specific needs, dietary requirements and preferences. I aim to minimize stress from unfamiliar surroundings and interactions with other pets reducing the risk of illness and injury unlike traditional kennels/boarders. This is particularly beneficial for anxious or shy pets, helping them feel safe and secure in your absence.

This was the first time we had Aubrey stay overnight to take care of Lily and Cleo. Not knowing her, I was worried but for No reason. She took good care of our shy dog Lily. Our cat hid for the most part but that's ok! Our pets and our home were in great shape! I recommend Aubrey!

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 Zoar 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 Zoar 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 Zoar 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.
