“I highly recommend Mackenzie!! She is very reliable and communicates with you before and during her stay. And sends lots of pictures. She stayed with my cat and took great care of him. And also fed my fish and kept house in nice condition.”
“Sydney was a godsend with our 2 dogs. She met them twice before our trip since we have a nervous pup & she put her right at ease. I've never seen our girl be so good with someone so quickly. We got regular updates & pictures & I know that our doggies were in the best hands while we were gone. Will 100% be contacting her again! She's the best!”
“This is long overdue. Hannah was very reliable and took great care of our two energetic pups while we were away. They absolutely loved her. She constantly updated us which puts our mind at ease while we were away on vacation. She is highly recommended.”
About: House sitting, dog walks, training and drop in visits for all pets. I have cared for animals my entire life, from dogs and cats to small pets. I am actively training dogs with structured leash and behavior support during walks. I have raised puppies through two litters, so I understand the patience, attention and care they need at every stage. Animals have always been part of my family, loving companions and treated as such. I treat every pet I meet as I would treat my own. Whether it's walks, playtime, or keeping them comfortable in your home, I provide dependable, loving care that keeps tails wagging and the owners at ease. I know dogs thrive on routine, so I'm happy to provide weekly care at consistent times; walks, play or just someone to sit with while you're at work or on vacation. Premium overnight care for pets who deserve a calm, experienced caregiver. Thoughtful communication, respectful home care, and personalized attention while you're away. Daily walks are part of my own health and wellness routine, and caring for pets fits right in. Sadly, my own dogs have passed, and the right one hasn't come into my life yet. Until then, I would love the chance to share my time, energy and affection with other's people pets. Dogs especially bring me joy, and walking them keeps both of us happy, active and cared for. I'd like your dog to know me as their regular walking buddy. I follow each pet parent's instructions closely and respect their home. My focus is on your pet's safety and comfort, and well-being so you can feel confident they are cared for while you're away. I am available for consistent weekly walks, drop-ins, and over night house sitting.
About: Im a groomer and I have experiences with many type of dogs. I took care of newborn puppies many times as my parents breed the dogs at times I walk my dog constantly as I love and enjoy going on walks and I take care of dogs as a Kennel attendant at a vet I play with dogs and enjoy them. I love having them enjoy themselves and letting them take their time to know me and not forcing them to get used to me
About: I worked full time for a shelter and loved working with every animal there. Meeting them at their level so that their needs were completely fulfilled was my passion. Whether they were high or low energy, dim or bright, friendly or not, I thrived on figuring out what would make the the most adoptable and what would make them most comfortable in the harsh shelter environment. It was a difficult and demanding job at times especially when I needed to provide first aid or medication/therapy for ailing animals but I always enjoyed coming home knowing I did something that meant something to those parent-less pets. I also had the lovely opportunity to work the social media for the shelter and take photos and videos of each animal to best display their personalities to the wider public who wouldn't normally see them otherwise. I currently work part time with very flexible hours so I am frequently available to provide service to both my own pets and others. I find it very fulfilling to be able to make time for my own furry friends! Working in a shelter environment I often met many animals at their lowest when they were beyond scared and upset. I got exposure to many dogs and cats that were horribly unadapted to life around people and had personalities on either end of the spectrum. I am more than comfortable with animals that are more aggressive in both appearance and personality and was frequently tasked with retrieving abandoned or lost animals using the company van.
“I appreciate Shawn and his care for my pups. Having an older dog makes me a little nervous while away however Shawn communicates if there are any concerns, anything I need to know.”
“April watched our gaggle of pups when we had to unexpectedly go out of town. She did an amazing job with them, was responsive, and I felt at ease knowing she had a handle on our crew. We have a puppy and an older guy needing medical care and she handled both so well. I would definitely recommend April!”
“Lindsey was great. My dog had a great time w lots of attention & walks. She was great w my Doberman who is a bit leery of new people & has lots of energy. I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“We had an amazing experience with Addison! From the moment we left, communication was outstanding. We received regular updates, photos, and messages throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and loved. It was obvious that she took the time to get to know their personalities and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and safe. She was incredibly reliable, professional, and kind, and we never had to worry about a thing. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative pet sitter!”
About: Please take into consideration the quality of your pet sitter over a low rate inexperienced "pet lover" that just wants to watch animals . There's a difference. "RATES LISTED HERE ARE BASIC RATES- THEY MAY BE ADJUSTED ON A CASE BY CASE SCENARIO (UP OR DOWN) DEPENDING ON THAT ANIMALS PARTICULAR NEEDS" *******IMO- ANIMALS trump most people 😁 I Specialize in special needs animals & alternative ways to treat that aren't offered by most vets due to my life long experience , I know what works. I also am fond on taking care of any & all animals including horses and farm animals. Right down to guinea pigs n snakes of all kinds. If you need dog boarding, as long as I have notice I can make myself available & home 24/7 ** I work M-F daily, so any animal I can work into my schedule is a great fit. I cannot do daily letting out of dogs unless I have NOTICE (deposit required) I am open to ANY animal watched in my home if that is preferential. I can also "stay" in your home outside of my daily work schedule I'm in a huge farm house, large yard and except for weekly job am always home for one on one. Im extremely close to my local vet and have dealt with many different situations.

I have a very high maintenance dog- so I get all concerns! I just want to make clients happy!

About: I have 3 years of experience as a veterinary assistant and a lifelong passion for animal care.

“Kaila was great. She was available on short notice. She was able to handle my overbearing puppies, one of which is pretty big and needs more training. She left my home looking just as I left it. I was most surprised that my wild baby Ruby was actually tired when we got home. This means she was playing with them outside! I am happy I found a great person for my precious babies.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belshaw
Mackenzie was fantastic! She took care of our dog in our home for eight days. Our dog was so well taken care of we will continue to have her come take him on walks. She continually sent updates and pictures. She made sure he had walks and gave him plenty of outside time. My house was cleaner then I left it, and she brushed him while he was blowing his coat. I did not worry once about my dog or home while I was gone! Thank you Mackenzie, we are very thankful we found you, so is Andy!
Mackenzie will ABSOLUTELY be getting my business again! She was incredibly professional and compassionate. I have 2 huskies, 2 cats, a turtle, and fish and she was able to hold the fort down for 3 days and nights! I came home to a SAFE, CLEAN home with HAPPY babies! She goes above and beyond and you can tell she truly cares about the work she does. I know I can rely on this girl when it comes to my pet's care and I would truly recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter.
We had an amazing experience with Mackenzie, who watched our three dogs for an entire week. From the moment we met, it was clear our pups were in great hands. They were cared for with so much love, patience, and attention—each dog’s unique personality and needs were clearly understood and accommodated. We received regular updates and photos which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. The dogs looked happy, relaxed, and completely at home. When we returned, the house was spotless and the dogs were calm, content, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets—especially when you have three!—but Mackenzie exceeded every expectation. We are so grateful for the exceptional care and will absolutely book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 490 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Belshaw. 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 Belshaw 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 Belshaw 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 Belshaw 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
