“Sarah was amazing with our pack of geriatric pets! She sent pictures every day, and she communicated everything really well. Taking care of our pets is somewhat complicated because of their ages, but Sarah took detailed notes and nailed everything perfectly. Our house was nice and clean when we came home. Sarah was also flexible with our flight delays and stayed an extra night to make sure there was no gap in care while we were struggling to get home. We really couldn't have asked for a better, more trustworthy person to take care of our babies. Thank you so much, Sarah, you were amazing!”

About: I have plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I treat each pet like family, offering personalized care, companionship, and comfort. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. I enjoy having a routine, and caring for a dog fits perfectly into my day. With my current schedule as a full-time online student, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in my home, I keep my own Shih Tzu (8-year-old female) in her own room and take each dog out separately when needed. I ensure they get 2-3 walks a day, feed them as directed, play with them, and allow them to roam freely. I make sure all their needs are met. When taking care of pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions, taking their pet out 2-3 times a day on a walk and feeding as directed.

About: I’ve handled pets of my own and have provided at home care for friends or family members my whole life. When needed I’ve boarded animals at my own home for friends or family. There’s nothing like a good break with furry friends that helps the day go by. Currently I have a flexible scheduled and enjoy the opportunity. I always make sure that animals are given loving attention. It’s important that they are provided with the bathroom, sleeping and toy accommodations they deserve and the exercise they need. I understand the need for routine.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages for more than 9 years, pets of my neighbors, friends and my own pets, I consider that they need the best care in the world as they give everything for us being our companions on this journey that is life, talking a little about my experience, I have taken care of small and large pets to bathe and feed them and walk them, I have training in the face of any altercation on the street. Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.

“Angela watched our 3 dachshunds for 3 days over Thanksgiving. During the meet and greet, all 3 of our girls took to her right away. Angela asked questions and made sure she understood the girls’ routine and needs. Since she was sitting on Thanksgiving, she would be away for longer than normal to spend time with her family - not an issue, but she made sure to address this with us ahead of time, which was appreciated! She arrived and departed on schedule as promised. She provided pictures and detailed updates while we were away. She even helped us with some logistics in Rover - when the arrival and departure times changed, she updated them for us! It’s extremely important to us that we have someone we can trust and rely on to watch our girls and give access to our home while we are away, and Angela fits the bill! We will be using her again.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for them since childhood and have gained extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am certified in Cat & Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross and I also hold a Fear Free Pet Certification, meaning I prioritize low-stress, positive handling techniques to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and secure at all times. Your pet’s safety and emotional well-being are always my top priority. I spent two years working at an animal shelter, where I handled everything from socializing shy rescues to assisting with basic training and caring for high energy dogs. In addition, I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs, including mobility challenges and anxiety. I am the owner of Salty’s Pet Services LLC, where I provide professional boarding, walking, and drop-in visits. Every dog in my care receives personalized attention, structure, and plenty of love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or playtime, I’m dedicated to making sure your dog feels at home while you’re away. Weekday Care & Supervision I am home-based which means I am home throughout the day providing attentive, hands-on care. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks, meals on schedule, enrichment, and consistent supervision. This setup is ideal for dogs who benefit from structure, routine, and human presence rather than being left alone for extended periods. Weekend Care I am fully available on weekends and intentionally limit my schedule to ensure each dog receives quality, individualized attention. Whether it’s relaxed downtime at home, structured walks, or light outings, your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. Potty Training Requirement All dogs must be potty trained. If your dog is prone to accidents, diapers or potty pads are required to maintain a clean, comfortable environment for all pets in my care. What to Bring for Your Dog’s Stay To ensure a seamless and stress-free experience, please pack the following: 🐾 Food & Treats: Sufficient for the entire stay 🐾 Food & Water Bowls: To maintain familiarity and routine 🐾 Collar/Harness & Leash: Required for walks and outdoor time 🐾 Emergency Contact Information 🐾 Daily Routine Overview: Feeding, potty, sleep, and behavior notes 🐾 Medications (if applicable): Clearly labeled with instructions 🐾 Bedding or Blanket (optional): Familiar scent for comfort 🐾 Crate (optional but recommended): For rest and decompression 🐾 Poop Bags (optional) 🐾 Favorite Toys (optional): Comfort items from home Care Standards I intentionally keep my environment calm, clean, and structured. Your dog will be treated as a guest in my home, not just a booking on a calendar. Safety, communication, and your pet’s well-being are always my priority. If you have specific expectations, questions, or care requests, please reach out prior to booking. I look forward to providing your dog with exceptional care. 🐕❤️ I have a small yard with a secure chain link setup, providing a safe space for dogs to play and stretch their legs. While my yard is not fully fenced, I always ensure supervised outdoor time to keep your dog safe. Having a companion can help ease anxiety and make their stay more fun and engaging. Whether they love to play, lounge, or explore, I create a comfortable, stress-free environment where every dog feels at home. Safety is my top priority, and I’m committed to giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐕

FAQs for House Sitting - Aux Sable

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 798 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aux Sable. 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 Aux Sable 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 Aux Sable 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 Aux Sable 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aux Sable. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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.
