“Xena was great! We just moved into town and she made it so easy and stress free to know our fur kiddo was well taken care of when going out of town. She was forgiving of the chaos of our house due to the unpacking and was able to support Levi as a senior. Will be booking again when we need a dog sitter!”
“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of our corgi. She followed all of our instructions closely and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was safe, healthy and very happy. Our pup immediately felt comfortable with Vanessa and she also took good care of our house. We fully recommend her as a dog and house sitter.”

About: Hello, I’m new to the app and am looking to make some furry friends! I am a true dog lover and enjoy adapting to each dog’s personality and needs. I’m a very active person who loves being outdoors, so I’m always happy to go on long walks, play, and keep energetic dogs engaged. At the same time, I’m patient and calm, which helps dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. Whether your dog wants an adventure or just a companion to hang out with, I’m happy to be exactly what they need. As a recent college grad, I currently have a very flexible schedule, and I am taking some time during the summer before starting the next chapter of my career pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and being outdoors whether it’s going for walks playing or simply keeping a pet company care for animals is something I find rewarding and look forward to. When caring for pets, I like to follow the routine they are already used to so they feel safe and comfortable. I thrive with structure, so I appreciate clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications for feeding, or any special needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in their home, my goal is to be present, attentive, and give them the care they need.
“Coralie watched our cat while we were away and was wonderful. She was very flexible with our late booking and gave Yogi fun and entertainment. We got home to a very happy and relaxed cat. She also communicated the entire time very well and the house was wonderfully clean. We’ll definitely book with Coralie again”

“Tsaitami did a great job with our pets. Emma (the rarely-sighted cat) came out for hugs and bedtime, Eli and Josie survived storms with her. She even took Eli to our vet when he had symptoms of gastric issues. Our house was immaculate when we returned. We've already booked her for another stay. I highly recommend her.”
“Shaina was a wonderful caregiver for our boys! She kept in touch with us the entire time we were away, we love seeing pictures of them playing & napping. The boys like having someone in the house while we are gone and did a great job keeping them company too.”
“My dogs took to Julia right away. Julia was very gentle and caring. She was very diligent with asking questions and checking in with me. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog family in her loving care. Thanks Julia!”
About: I have experience with puppies and dogs I have had 2 dogs before a pug and a German Shepard I love taking walks and being outside! I’m a college student but most of my classes are from 9am-12pm so I’m free the rest of the day for whatever your pet needs. I have my own car so I drive a lot and can do homework from my computer. My cats are my number one priority keeping them safe is everything. We always make sure to check for our babies when leaving the house or doing laundry. I’m very careful when it comes to animal Saftey and making sure they are the happiest they can ever be when I’m taking care of them.
“She was really amazing, my dog jack got soo comfortable as soon he saw her. Felicia keeps you updated and sends you picture and lets you know how everything going.”
About: I have been around dogs almost my whole life and enjoy taking care of them! I got my dog when I was around 15 and she is genuinely the best part of my life! I know how difficult it is to find someone you trust enough to take care of your dog and will make sure that I can be that person for others. I’ve dog sat for people throughout the years and it is such an amazing experience to spend time with the dogs. I am currently searching for a full time job after recently finishing university so my availability to take care of your furry loved ones is pretty open. Growing up my mom has always been employed as a house cleaner and would take me with her to help, from a young age I’ve always known how to respect people’s homes even when they are not present. Ensuring that people are comfortable enough to trust me with their pet in their home is my utmost priority.
“Karachi was one of the easiest sitters we’ve ever had for our senior dog! He requires some special instructions and she followed them to a T. She left our home spotless and we returned to a very relaxed and well-taken care of pup. 10/10 would recommend Karachi for any pet care needs!”

Duncan stayed over the weekend with our 2 pups, Piney and Blossom as well as my sister's dog, Willow. He gave us a lot of pictures and feedback on how the 3 dogs were doing. He also left the house in great condition. We will definately have Duncan take are of our home and pups anytime we are out of town for an extended amount of time.
Aliyah stayed at our house with our two dogs for a week while we were on the west coast and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable and relaxed knowing she was with them. From the moment the dogs met Aliyah, they loved her! She took them on numerous walks, gave them all the snuggles and was incredible with communication. I feel so grateful to have found someone so caring to watch over our fur babies. We will absolutely be using Aliyah for future needs for our pups!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Helena the care Emilie and Bruno received while we were in Italy. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease leaving them with someone I trusted to love and care for them as if they were her own. She sent frequent photos and updates, which gave me such peace of mind while we were away. It truly felt like a lifelong friend was staying with my kids. She also took exceptional care of our home, bringing in the mail, watering, and handling every little detail without our having to worry about a thing. At the end of her stay, she coordinated with my mother to ensure a smooth and seamless handoff. Everything went perfectly, and Helena was an absolute delight to work with. I returned home to two happy, well-loved dogs and a beautifully cared-for home. I would trust her with Emilie and Bruno again without hesitation and recommend her wholeheartedly!
Alissa was great. She communicated effectively and was willing to be flexible with an elderly pup who had some tummy issues and needed some dietary changes while we were away. She also left the house cleaner than when she got there. Cassi was well taken care of!
I cannot say enough good things about Alexandra! She was on time every time, gave extra time and attention, and really went the extra mile for my three dogs. She was an excellent communicator when my dog didn’t want to take his meds and problem solved through it. Would 100% hire her again.
Erin house sat with our three dogs, cat and two parakeets for a week. She came over for an additional meet and greet to talk to our daughter about her cat’s special needs. Erin walked all the dogs, played with the cat and watered and fed the parakeets. We felt good knowing she was taking care of all our pets and managing other things at the house. We will definitely have Erin help us out again.

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 Anscroft 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 Anscroft 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 Anscroft 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!

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 .
