“She is so wonderful, as soon as we met Shayla the girls were already attached, she focused a lot on them during our two visits. She is a wealth of knowledge and good information. When we came home our house as clean as we left it, She sent us numerous pictures and we chatted about things”
About: Aside from owning and caring for all manor of animals since I was little, I have had many opportunities to grow my skills in pet care. I have been caring for dogs out of my home since I was in high school. I have cared for all manor of dogs and cats with a variety of temperaments and ages. I also spent several summers working at a dog grooming shop here in town that also doubles as a doggy daycare, further developing my skills in handling multiple dogs at a time. Ask anyone I know, they will tell you that I adore animals and have since I was small. I am a middle school teacher during the day, but mornings before school, after im done, and weekends are my prime time. I am willing to get up early to check on your pet in the mornings, board and daycare throughout the week as needed. I am currently with my mom and dad so there is always someone at home for potty breaks and snuggles. We would love to have your pet stay with us or just come for a day! I am a big advocate for learning how an animal works and thinks to better allow me meet their needs. Finding out what an animal likes and disliked has created an environment of trust and ease in my home. I love when they can roam and explore and relax as they need.
About: I've taken care of family and friends dogs for years ranging from just checking in on them during the day to staying with them or taking them back home to stay with me. I currently work at the airport and have 3 hour gaps between flights to take car of animals between. I am week on week off so my availability is wide open when I am not at the airport. I have one dog that's super friendly, with a dog park in my apartment complexe as well as a dog park half a block away to take the dogs to go play.
“Hannah was the best. Not only did she take time to meet Mollie before I left on my trip but she also made sure that Mollie would be okay after my flight got delayed on the trip back home. Will definitely use her again.”
“I have an older dog who is a little nervous around people she doesn't know. Joslyn & Damon stayed at our home while we were off island and my Roxy girl warmed right up to them. I would highly recommend them & look forward to using them again on our next trip out of town.”
About: My family fosters numerous animals, so I have a ton of experience taking care of newborn kittens/puppies who need a little bit of extra TLC! I work part time, and I love to hangout with animals in my free time. This usually consists of a good walk or just some quality time! In my home, I have 3 dogs and 4 cats, so we have a full house. We have an unfenced yard, but we have a run in the backyard.
About: Love animals and caring for them! I’m certified in CPR and have taken animal safety courses online. Currently in college and am available Monday-Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I am available at all times and have a free schedule! I work Sunday 12-5 pm, Monday 4-9 pm, Thursday 12-4 pm and 5 pm-12 am. Keeping an eye on them and checking on their food and water/bladder/and or litter quite often to make sure they are being cared for and attended to!
About: As a former biologist, I have a high level of animal knowledge. I enjoy all species and have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and even birds and fish. I am partially retired, and have a lot of time to lend to your pets. I enjoy animals and have owned all varieties of pets. I live in a 2 bedroom home, with a fenced backyard. I prefer to care for your pets at your place but can watch them at mine if needed.

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 Baseline 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 Baseline 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 Baseline 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.
