“Andrew took very good care of my fur babies! He was courteous, caring and communicative! I had no worries with leaving Scooch and Tank in his knowledgeable care. My senior pup has mobility issues and it was great knowing he was in very good hands!”
“Ilene was amazing and took great care of our 2 dogs and cat while we were out of town for the weekend. Our dogs can be a little wary of new people, but warmed up to Ilene right away. We appreciated the updates and communication and would definitely rebook with Ilene again in the future!”
“Sarah made sure that all of our pets were taken care of and received tons of love and attention while we were away. She is also experienced with caring for rabbits so I knew that our bunny was in good hands and would be able to exercise his legs. I highly recommend her and will be booking her for future pet sitting needs!”
“Sheryl and her husband were truly OUTSTANDING! They came through for me when I found myself with an 11th hour need, and took excellent care of my 15week puppy over the weekend. They gave her lots of playtime and affection. You can trust Sheryl to take excellent care of your dog.”
About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my deep and varied pet care experience, fueled by genuine love and mirroring the dedicated care I provide my own furry family. Beyond standard sitting, I offer an understanding of canine behavior and individual needs through hands-on dog training, certified pet therapy volunteering, shelter and rescue assistance and fostering dogs of all ages and backgrounds. This comprehensive experience allows me to provide specialized care, especially for puppies and senior dogs. My commitment goes beyond simply supervising dogs. I strive to create a comfortable, enriching and safe environment where your dog is family, receiving the individualized attention and understanding they deserve. Pet care is deeply integrated into my daily life; it's my full-time dedication. Daily Routine: Morning (6:00 AM - 8:00 AM): My day often begins with my own pets. This includes: Feeding: Ensuring everyone gets their appropriate breakfast, fresh water and medications Potty Breaks: Taking them outside for their morning elimination. Exercise/Playtime: A walk in the yard, a quick game of fetch, to get their energy levels up. Health Checks: A quick visual assessment to ensure everyone is looking and acting healthy. Mid-Morning/Afternoon (Variable): This is often when I schedule client visits or depending on the day, this might involve: running errands Boarding Care: For dogs staying with me, this includes regular potty breaks, supervised playtime in my yard (often integrated with my own dogs if appropriate and safe), and individual attention. Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): This mirrors the morning routine for my own pets: Feeding: Dinner time for everyone. Potty Breaks: Evening elimination walks. Relaxation/Affection Time: Cuddling on the couch, gentle petting or quiet playtime. Preparing for the Night: Ensuring fresh water and comfortable sleeping arrangements. Late Evening (Before Bed - 10:00 PM - 10:30 PM)): A final potty break before we all settle in for the night. Mack Pack Pet Services LLC - Where your dog is family here! Licensed & Insured. Caring for your beloved pet is my full-time passion, ensuring they receive dedicated attention and become a happy member of our pack! We ensure a smooth transition with carefully supervised introductions to our resident pack: Marley and Asher (Great Danes) and Mea (Shepherd Mix ). I am unable to board dominant or aggressive dogs. They'll enjoy stimulating playtime in our monitored group setting on our expansive 2.5-acre fenced property. If needed, your dog can retreat to its own secure, comfortable room (with optional crate) for peaceful rest. You can expect a happy and well-exercised dog upon their return.
“I had never left my 2 older dogs with anyone besides friends or family before. Alexis was able to fill in at the last minute, and she took great care of my dogs! Both of my dogs are sweet but a little neurotic, but Alexis was a pro. She left the house clean and kept me up to date while I was away.”
“Kyle did amazing taking care of my dog overnight. My dog has anxiety and is on meds. Kyle was patient and kind with her and got her to take her meds with no problem. I won't hesitate to connect with him again.”
“Kayla was absolutely wonderful. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Bella was in such good hands. I received frequent updates and pictures. I truly can't say enough good things about the care Bella received.”
“Ben was absolutely wonderful! He communicated well sent great photos and we felt very good about having him care for our dogs. He asked great questions when he was unsure and to me that is the mark of a great person and a caring pet sitter! We will ask Ben back for sure!”
About: As the above headline would suggest, I aim to be much more than a service provider for your pets needs. Yes, I do love animals and am a dog dad myself but my heart is to be a humble servant of the Lord Jesus Christ and make myself available to help with any practical and/or personal matters of life you may have currently. I’m not a religious fanatic and won’t impose my faith on you in any way, shape or form but feel free to ask questions about it! I have pretty wide open availability mostly but I am currently a dialysis patient and receive treatments every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7am to around 11/11:30am. Tuesday evenings I’m usually busy from 6pm to 8/8:30pm. Wednesday evenings busy from 5pm to 8pm. The rest of my days and evenings are open except for Sundays from 9am to 3pm but then available Sunday evenings. Unfortunately, I’m unable to bring pets into my current residence but I obviously abide by the client’s expectations and instructions when coming to their home. As long as directions are clear and legible, I’ll follow them precisely. I am available for house-sitting, if deemed necessary as well.
“Alex is reliable and always goes above and beyond when watching my dog. Followed instructions, easy to communicate with and sent updates throughout the week, came home to house cleaner than I left it and I can tell my dog was well cared for. Thank you”
“Without a doubt, the best dog/house sitter we’ve ever had and found her on three days notice!!!! Our two (high energy, somewhat timid, not perfectly trained but absolutely loveable) Aussies adored Jackie! We received regular updates by text and above and beyond offers to help around the house while we were away - including taking both large dogs to the groomers!! Came home to an impeccably clean house AND laundered sheets! 10 out of 10 would recommend!!!”
About: I have taken care of cats for at least 20 years now. I would love to help someone out by taking care of their cats when they cannot. I am retired so I would have a lot of time to take care of your cat or keep them company for a while. I love fur babies. I have three indoor cats and one outdoor cat that comes in to eat and sleep. They get plenty of attention. I would love to add more Cat friends to have fun with.
About: I have been around dogs of all sizes and cats since I was a kid so I am very comfortable around all types of pets! I have experience puppy-sitting future service dogs, caring for large dogs, and looking after cats. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each animal's individual needs. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work part-time, so | have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I'm able to accommodate different scheduling needs and prioritize being reliable and consistent with each pet's routine. I enjoy providing attentive, loving care while keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, and attention, and maintain their usual routines. I'm also happy to follow specific instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and any individual needs. I'm unable to accommodate pets in my own home due to a household member's dog allergy, but I'm happy to care for pets in their own home.
“Wydia was so awesome with our puppy. She’s extremely personable and accommodating. I was impressed by her timeliness and level of commitment. She offers great suggestions without being pushy. She gelled so well with all the family members and this is huge because it’s our first dog and we’re nervous about everything. So grateful to have found her, it definitely inspires confidence in us to know that we could use Rover to reach out skilled and loving pet lovers who live up to their great reviews and provide reliable service.”
“Susan put me at ease the moment I met her. I chose Susan based on her reviews from Rover which are all 5 star reviews. Susan took the time to come visit with our dog several times before our trip. This was so important to us. My dog is very timid and weary of strangers. Susan sent daily pictures and updates which was reassuring. I came home to a very happy, healthy dog!! My house was clean and tidy which was wonderful. Susan is amazing! She stayed at my house for 16 days, allowing us peace to truly enjoy our trip. I will be using her for all future trips!! Thank you Susan ❤️”
“Riley was wonderful with my pups! Punctual, communicative and so loving with them. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I’d happily book with Riley again and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grew up around German shepherds since I was 5 and I’ve always found to love just playing and taking care of them. I am good with taking care of dogs with high energy and even anxious dogs as well. Im very patient to each and every dogs needs and that not every dog needs the same care. My goal is when you see your dog again they feel happy, safe and loved while I’m caring for them I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and can also provide care on weekdays, especially after 12 PM. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I have a safe and welcoming home where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I have one older, friendly dog who is used to being around other animals. Since my yard isn’t fenced, I make sure pets are always supervised outside and safely leashed when needed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and crate time if needed. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better house / pet sitter! I was out of state visiting family for the weekend, and having someone so reliable and attentive in my home gave me total peace of mind. Knowing both my babies (cat and dog) were so well cared for allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my trip without a worry. I loved receiving regular updates and photos throughout the weekend—it was nice to see my pets happy and comfortable in their own home while I was away. My home was left in wonderful shape, and both of my pets were clearly loved and spoiled. This is the first time I have used Rover for pet sitting and it worked out well. I will book again if needed and highly recommend her for services anyone looking for caring and trustworthy pet care!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,883 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bally. 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 Bally 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 Bally 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 Bally 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.
