“Cat is an absolute gem of a pet sitter! She was fantastic with Nox and looked after my girl as if she were her very own. Throughout her stay, Cat kept my mind completely at ease by sending regular updates and the perfect amount of pictures / videos. It is incredibly clear that this isn't just a job for her—she genuinely loves what she does and has a true passion for animals. I felt so comfortable knowing Nox was safe, happy, and showered with affection. I cannot recommend Cat highly enough and will definitely be booking her again!!”
“Shannon was such a great sitter. The pups took an instant liking to her. She was excellent at communicating and keeping me updated. I certainly will book her again should the opportunity arise. Highly recommend! Thanks Shannon.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have over 12 years of professional experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! Along with my grooming background, I have hands-on experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and administering medications. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and dogs with different temperaments, including shy, anxious, and reactive pups. As a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care! I offer flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends for boarding and pet care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, including regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention. I keep my calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! My home offers a loving environment with a fully fenced yard, plenty of room to play, and lots of attention. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats of my own, so proper introductions and compatibility are very important to me. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and follow their usual routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide attentive, personalized care, regular updates, and plenty of love so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
About: Hi there! My name is Becky and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my Standard Poodle, Molly. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I am a mom of two kids in school. I am able to do drop in and dog walking in the Port Jeff area. Let me know if your dog is kid friendly because there may be times where she will come along if it’s convenient for our schedule. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy! Please feel free to let me know of any thing special your pup needs while I do drop ins.
“Kim is awesome! I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup knowing he was with her. She clearly both loves and understands dogs and is reliable, a good communicator, and lovely to deal with. I came home to a happy and well cared for dog. Thank you!”
About: I’ve had dogs for almost my whole life! I love to take care of them! I would care for your dog as if they were my own. :) I currently work for a major hospital, and I work a 4 day work week. I have off almost every weekend and 1 day off during the week. I have a fenced yard for running & playing and I live in a great area where we can go for good walks! Your dog would gets lots of pets and cuddles from me as well :)
“Hailee was so great with our cat Duke! It’s been difficult to find someone reliable and that we trust but Hailee eased all our worries! We felt Duke was in the best hands while we were away and will continue using Hailee for drop ins/stays.”
About: Hi! My name is Deanne, and I’m an experienced animal caregiver with a strong background working hands-on with dogs in structured care environments. I currently work at the Guide Dog Foundation, where I care for dogs in a nursery setting. My daily responsibilities include feeding, monitoring health and behavior, administering medication when needed, and supporting the early development and well-being of working dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, including puppies and senior dogs, and I’m attentive to detail when it comes to routines, safety, and individual needs. I understand how important consistency and trust are for animals when their owners are away. I’m reliable, calm, and very observant—especially when it comes to changes in behavior or health. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and maintain your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Communication is important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated with how your pet is doing. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog! Pet care is already part of my daily routine through my work at the Guide Dog Foundation, where I care for dogs on a structured schedule. I’m used to feeding, monitoring health and behavior, and following consistent care routines, so Rover fits naturally into my weekly schedule. I work evenings Wednesday-Sunday from 6pm-10pm. So I’m available during the day. I provide care by following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to behavior and comfort, and I adjust care based on the pet’s needs.
“Staci was absolutely wonderful! One of our dogs is in the middle of a long recovery from TPLO surgery, Staci was great with her and even slept downstairs on the couch since our dog can’t climb stairs right now. Lots of great pictures through our trip that made us feel so much more relaxed knowing everyone was doing good. Highly recommend Staci!!”
About: Caring for pets is my full-time focus, so my schedule is flexible and I’m available whenever your pet needs me. I love long walks, so your pup will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and time to sniff around. I also have two dogs of my own, Koa (a Lab/Terrier mix) and Lilo (a Pitbull), so I’m used to a house that runs on walk schedules and dinner bowls. Pet care is my full-time focus. I have a flexible schedule and can help with walks or drop-in visits throughout the day, including last-minute needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality, and I approach every visit with calm, patience, and care. I treat every home with respect and always make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I worked at a dog rescue/ groomer for 3 years! I would take the dogs to the beach and walk them occasionally, do home boarding visits and clean up cages! I have been grooming for about a year. I currently work part time. I go into work at 9 and leave at about 2:30 Tuesday through Saturday. Usually go to the gym at night but that’s only for an hour and a half. I fulfill any specific needs of dogs and will cuddle, play and hangout with them. I groom my dog at home so if grooming is needed I can also fulfill that too!
“Sam was beyond amazing with my two Dachshunds. She sent me updates and photos and I could tell my pups were having the best time with her. Upon arrival home, my house was exactly as I left it, clean and organized, and she was very respectful of my space. I highly recommend her services and I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I loved dogs all my life Ive had several dogs and cats before and I think you just have to know how their minds work so you can raise, train and live with them Im currently looking for a job so Im mainly free these days so my schedule is very flexible and i have a lot of free time I don't have any dogs at the moment that's why i want to work with animals and help in walking or training them for people
“Kim is great with watching our two dogs. She was even able to stay an extra night this time when our flight home got cancelled last minute. She sends updates throughout the stay and always leaves our house the way we left it. Would highly recommend!”
“This was my first time boarding my cat and Hayley made it super easy and gave me much peace of mind. She was kind and patient, sent lots of pictures and videos, was super flexible with any schedule changes I may have had and was super welcoming! I can’t explain how grateful I am for her service and having someone I can trust with my baby for any future trips I may have!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Since I’m home often, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time, and I can help keep them on their normal schedule so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. For house sitting, I’m also able to bring my work equipment with me, which allows me to stay with your pet while still working remotely and giving them consistent care and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine and environment as normal and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications if needed, crate routines, and any house rules. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and fenced areas are secure, and I pay close attention during walks and playtime to keep pets safe. I’m respectful of every client’s home and will treat both your pet and your space with care. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: Hi there! I’m Adrianna (or Adi for short), and I believe that pets aren't just animals—they are family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your best friend behind, which is why my goal is to provide a nurturing environment filled with belly rubs, long walks, and endless love. Whether we are playing fetch or cuddling up for an afternoon nap, your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. I am always open to discussing any additional support that your pet may need. I am currently employed but mostly work from home, so my schedule is flexible and can work around any pet’s needs—provide an extra walk, an extra cuddle session: you name it! I have a large fenced in yard that provides my animals with safe spaces for exercise. I also have a pet water fountain inside the home to promote hydration especially during the summer months. My pets always get a breakfast and dinner, though each is tailored to their specific dietary needs. Playtime is a must in my household, and my pets always receive interactive stimulation to keep their minds and bodies healthy.
About: I’m a reliable and caring dog lover who genuinely loves spending time with dogs of all kinds. My neighbors and family members have often relied on me taking care of their dogs while they’re away which gave me experience in being attentive and patients to different dogs needs. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, some exercise, or just a little extra attention during the day, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. I am currently working part-time so I am super flexible to work with you and your dogs schedule and routine. Whenever you need me I can try to accommodate you! In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized while giving their pet plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I make sure pets get enough outdoor time, stay hydrated, and feel relaxed while their owner is away.

Shannon was amazing with Otter! And so flexible with my last minute plans - I am forever grateful to her for being so awesome. I drove down from New Hampshire to see my brother and she not only cared for Otter at the last minute but stayed longer when the surprise dinner ran behind. I can't sing her praises enough!
Brianna was absolutely fantastic while caring for my pets. She watched my six dogs and my cat and handled everything with patience, kindness, and genuine care. She kept me consistently updated by sending photos and messages, which really put me at ease while I was away. It was clear my pets were comfortable, happy, and in great hands. I would highly recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.
Paul watched our two new rescue German Shepherds for an overnight when we went out of town after only having the dogs for 2 weeks. It was such a relief to find someone close by who is a GSD lover. Both dogs took to Paul & his wife immediately. We loved getting photo and video updates while we were away from our new fur babies!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Belle Terre 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 Belle Terre 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 Belle Terre 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
