“Abogail had consistent communication with me while I was away on my trip. She did an amazing job with my pitbull and I appreciate her doing such a great job! I had the peace of mind that he was being well taken care of!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and lifelong experience with animals. I grew up in a pet-friendly home where caring for animals was part of everyday life, so I understand the patience, attention, and compassion they need. I’ve also sheltered and cared for pets until they were ready to find their forever homes, giving me experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and needs. I currently work part-time so I have a lot of time and space for pet sitting! I’m available throughout the week & weekends as well. I provide a clean, safe, and cozy home where my pets can feel comfortable and cared for. From soft, comfortable bedding and a welcoming environment to engaging playtime and fun-filled activities, I make sure every pets receives the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away.
“Adele was right on time, great keeping in touch to put me at ease while leaving my babies. Sent videos especially of Toby my kitten I can never get close too but Adele managed to gain his trust. Amazing ! Adele stayed overnite caring for my two kittens & Sadie my large pyreness baby girl. My home was neat as I left it as well Adele is on the top of my choice for the next stay over. Much Thanks once again”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12, when I got my first I was scared but then I realized that dogs are just so sweet and just want to give you love. I go to school from 7am -1pm i can take care for the animals after school and will help me for maintenaning balance for when i go to college in the fall I have 2 dogs that are super sweet. a fenced yard, and if you need to crate them you will have to provide a kennel.
About: Animals have always been a huge passion of mine, and caring for them brings me an enormous amount of joy. I’ve had animals of all kinds since the day I was born and have experience caring for everything from dogs and cats to livestock and exotic animals. I attended Louisiana Tech University in Ruston from 2022–2026, where I majored in Animal Science with a concentration in Pre-Veterinary Medicine. While at Louisiana Tech, I served as President of the Pre-Vet Club and worked as the club’s publicist. I also worked as a barn hand while in college and grew up working at a horse barn. Before moving to Ruston, I spent a year working as a veterinary assistant at a veterinary clinic. Pet sitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, family, and clients in Ruston. I understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I recently moved back to my hometown of Mandeville, LA, and now have plenty of time and flexibility for pet sitting. I’m excited to meet new clients and, most importantly, make some new (furry, scaly, feathery, or hoofed) friends along the way! Since moving back home to Mandeville, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I am currently taking a break from school, so I am able to work pet sitting and walks into my daily routine without having to rush between other commitments. I’m able to give each pet plenty of attention and can adjust my schedule around their individual routines, including feeding times, walks, medications, and other special care needs. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away! I’m happy to help with almost all of your pet-sitting needs, whether that means a walk around the neighborhood, a quick check-in, or spending more time with your pet while you’re away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. With my background in Animal Science, experience working as a veterinary assistant, and years of caring for animals, I am prepared to recognize and respond appropriately to many common situations that may arise. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when someone else is caring for your pets. I will always be easy to reach while caring for your pet and am happy to answer questions, provide updates, or address any concerns you may have. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Britany was great! Very considerate and communicative. She was very thorough during meet and greet and was open to learning new skills, such as taking care of our water fowl 🦆🦆We will definitely book again.”
About: I have watched many pets in my lifetime, big and small alike. Cats, dogs, hedgehogs, you name it. No matter the kind, I see the beauty in them all. I love making new fur friends and seeing them happy. I have a cat and dog of my own that I enjoy spending time with. I like to go on walks with my dog around my neighborhood but especially at the Lakefront . I also enjoy hanging out on the couch with her curled up on my lap. I offer plenty of tummy rubs and kisses in addition to fun activities. I will love your pet as if it were my own. And that is a guarantee. I hope to meet you and your lovely pup or kitty soon!
“Alyssa was amazing and took great care of our Golden Retriever while we were away for the weekend. She checked in on him multiple times a day to get his energy out! She sent us lots of pictures an updates while we were away! I would highly recommend Alyssa as a sitter! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Maxyn was super communicative and sent so many photos and videos of Piper and their adventures throughout the day. I could tell Piper appreciated all of the love and romping around they got in to. Thanks again, Maxyn!”

About: I love animals and helping them have the best time they can possibly have without their person at home. I know it can be nerve wracking to be away from your animals so I vow to make their time as enjoyable as it can be. I’ll make sure they feel just as loved and cared for as you would make them feel. I want to bring a fun and safe energy to them so you don’t have to worry. I’m open most of the time. I usually bartend but since it’s the slow season I haven’t had much work. I can fully immerse myself into caring for any animal! I can come over at any time to watch your animals. If they are feeling extra nervous I’d even be okay with staying a bit longer than agreed upon just to make them feel more comfortable. I’ll do whatever I need so they feel safe in my care.
About: I have been dedicated to animal care since the age of 7. My experience includes volunteering at shelters, training dogs, and providing essential services such as bathing and walking. Additionally, I have offered pet-sitting services for family and friends, further enhancing my skills in animal care and companionship. With open availability I’m am able to be there when you need me whether it’s morning , afternoons , or night or an emergency and you can’t be there like you planned I got you! By following their routine for feeding , exercise as well as providing company and ensuring their safety and comfort by monitoring their behavior.

“Chuck is fantastic with my two girls. I absolutely feel more at ease knowing my girls are safe and well taken care of. He has such a kind and caring demeaner. He sends pictures and comments to keep me updated.. He lets my girls sleep with him, which they love and follows the schedule they are accustomed too. Definitely keeping things as normal as possible for them to keep them happy. Our home is in fantastic condition when we return home as well. I'm very grateful for such a quality person to help us with the girls.”
About: I started my animal care experience working for the Audubon Science and Nature center in animal husbandry by caring for native and exotic animals, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in outreach and environmental education! My husband and I cared for wild, rehabilated, exotic, domestic and farm animals throughout our careers. My husband has worked in a stable and farm and has experience with horses, goats, pigs, chickens ect. Both working part-time and mostly from home we will love your baby whether it's got fur, feathers ,hooves, scales or semiporous skin! ;-) My husband and I have a flexible schedule working part time and seasonally, with most hours I can set for myself and also often I am able to work from home. He and I make sure all animals are paid lots of attention to and cared for throughout the day and checked on at night. I have two residences one where I have my pets and another where there are no pets so we can discuss your pets environmental needs. Your baby can play with my pets or have the place to themselves if that suits their demeanor.

The average cost of House Sitting in Amos is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $47 per night.

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 Amos 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 Amos 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 Amos 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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
