“Grace took great care of our cats. She took lots of really nice pictures and sent them to us and was super responsive whenever I had a question about anything. She left the house in great condition as well. I would highly recommend her for your kitties.”
“We did a walk-through with Audrey before the stay, she came in a timely manner, enjoyed the conversation and she answered any questions I had. Last minute our plans changed from an overnight stay to just drop in visit and she accommodated the changes. During her visit she updated us by sharing photos of Ellouise. I would recommend her, as well as will be using her in the future”
About: For as long as I can remember I have loved dogs, and I've lived with one for the last 15 years! I have experience dog-sitting various types of dogs ranging from boxers, to labs, to bulldogs. I love to walk dogs, play with them, and just hang out with them! I can definitely promise to be attentive and loving to your pup. I am currently available any time during the week to help care for your pup! You can trust they won't be neglected with me; I'm willing & eager to spend time with your pet in any way you need. At my house, I am always aware of where my dog is and what she is doing. I will make sure to do the same with your dog. I will make sure nothing dangerous is in their reach, keep their water bowl filled, and provide them with constant love and affection :)
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—no pup too big or small! I’ve also walked cats, administered meds, brushed teeth, and provided loving care for seniors. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m experienced and happy to help. My fenced yard offers safe outdoor time, and I treat every animal like family. I work part-time throughout the week, but I remain committed to providing reliable, loving care for every pet I welcome. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I offer boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, dog walking, and more, with availability depending on my work schedule. Same-day requests are welcome whenever my schedule allows. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always a priority! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is dog/cat - friendly, with a securely fenced yard, located on a quiet, low-traffic street. I clean with pet-safe products to ensure a healthy environment. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect and care as I do my own. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.
“I always feel that my dog is well taken care of when we have Mary in the house. I get the best pictures! Having Mary has opened my husband and I up for more travel. We are so happy we found her!”
About: I have had pets since I was 4 years old. Growing up on a farm, I learned to take care of animals from a very young age. Additionally, I spent a lot of my high school years pet sitting for neighbors, family friends, and friends of friends! I have had many dogs of many different breeds and ages. I tend to be an active person, so walking and playing with my pets to ensure their exercise is something I prioritize. I’m very good at adapting to pets different personalities and making them as comfortable as possible. I work 5 days a week but on a hybrid schedule- 3 days in office, 2 days working from home. My hours are 9-3, so I have plenty of time during the week to love on your pet! Additionally, my weekends are free. Though I do not have any pets currently, I have an apartment with plenty of room, outside space, and live directly across from a huge, gated dog park— which is friendly to all sizes of dogs. Additionally, I live right next to tons of walking trails, perfect for those pets who love their walks! If your pup is needing to be crated, I can easily make that happen, as well as anything else your pet needs!
About: I recently retired as the President of the Community Foundation of Elkhart County. I decided to try Rover as a way to spend time with animals and help individuals with their pet care needs. I am recently retired so I am free just about anytime I am needed. My wife and I live in Granger so I am available anywhere in the South Bend and Elkhart area. I have owned dogs and cats all my life. I will treat your pet as I treat mine. With great care, love and affection. Call me anytime.
“Samantha was very professional and responsive. She was quick to suggest a get-acquainted visit, so I was able to meet her and feel good about booking with her a couple of weeks before our trip. The day before the booking, she messaged me to confirm the time she would come the next day. As soon as she got in the house to take care of our dog, she texted a photo of him and assured us that he was doing well. She was great at communicating with us and sending pics of our pup. When we returned, the house was in great shape and our dog was calm and happy. We'll call her again!”
“We had Morgan housesit with our 2 large dogs for nearly a week. Leading up to our vacation, Morgan was very communicative and was able to come over to meet our dogs and get a quick tour/overview of our place. While we were gone, I received several updates from her with pictures showing that our pups were happy and healthy. And when we returned home, I could tell it had been well-cared for as it was as spotless as we had left it! I can't tell you what a relief it was to be able to let our pups stay home with lots of love at home rather than having to drop them off at a kennel. I will be keeping Morgan on my list for future trips and will happily recommend her to family and friends who need her services!”
“Alex was phenomenal! He took great care of all the pets, communicated with us regularly and gave great updates every day! He left our home looking better than when we left, amazing attention to detail. Highly recommended!!”

I have experience with all different types of dogs and even have to give an insulin shots everyday to one of the dogs I watch. Your furry friend will be in amazing care I have a very open schedule and available almost all the time. I’m a college student all online this semester so I’m home all the time to take care of your pets! I live in a house with a yard(not fenced) and live a mile away from a park and hiking trails if your pup would like that! I live in a nice neighborhood good for walks! And have two pups who are friendly with dogs and cats as well as two cats who are friendly!

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 Baroda 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 Baroda 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 Baroda 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.
