“Madison did a good job caring for my senior dogs and house sitting. Her knowledge and care for dogs was evident. Good communication through the whole process. Highly respectful of my home and followed instructions. I would recommend Madison for your dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover with my dog, and he was much happier when I returned home. Sydney did a great job. She was very responsive, and he loved her! I'll be booking Sydney again for my getaway.”
“Sam worked really well with my two large dogs (even though they both can be barkers) and even made friends with my cats. She also handled some unexpected hiccups at our house with grace, and I really appreciated that.”
“Ethan was amazing! I had a last minute booking and he made time for the meet and greet so I could confirm the fit before booking but he then went above and beyond when our times needed shifting after booking. He was available and made the change no complaint. He showed up on time and communicated throughout the booking process until arrival. Our dog was happy and cared for, fed and taken out to do his business as requested. I would use Ethan again.”
About: I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood and enjoy a peaceful home environment. I work, stay active in my church, and love winding down with a good book or movie. I’m down-to-earth and will treat your dog like family. My daughter, who’s now abroad, used to dog sit and encouraged me to try it myself—knowing how much I love dogs, even though I’m not ready to have one full-time. I often helped her with dog sitting before she left, and truly enjoyed the companionship. It would be a blessing to care for your pet and offer you peace of mind. I’m flexible, reliable, and would have a great time making sure your dog feels safe and loved. I work hybrid, which means your pet will have plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I love taking regular breaks to go on walks, give belly rubs, or just relax with a furry friend nearby. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, bathroom breaks, and any special care your pet may need. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your dog to relax comfortably. While I don’t have a backyard, I take regular walks in safe, green areas nearby and always supervise outdoor time. I follow your care instructions closely, including feeding, medications, and routines, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos. Whether in my home or yours, I provide calm, attentive care to help your pet feel secure and loved.
About: My first job at 12 was dog walking/sitting but I have been a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with dogs and adopted my cat about 8 years ago. I have cared for both young and elderly dogs/cats as well as those with special needs and medical conditions. I’m currently a stay at home mom with my school age kiddo. My availability is very open especially now during the school year. Let me help you out during this busy season with your fur babies! Although I may not be able to do overnight stays at this time, I can do later evenings and earlier mornings. I do have a fenced in backyard that I can accommodate your pup with! I also have a dog in my home who is very friendly and would love play if you allow it. If not I will keep them separate. I can take your dog out to a local trail or walk them in your neighborhood. With cats I would be vigilant in keeping them away from open doors unless allowed. I know they love to explore small spaces and I take extra precautions to keep my girl safe! I love getting to know all the unique personalities of different cats, I love a good cuddle as well as some fun playtime. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties.
“Megan was an excellent communicator and sent lots of photos of our dog, cat, and chickens! When something personal came up and she needed to end the booking early, she let us know as soon as she knew, worked with us to find the best solution, and immediately refunded us for the difference in time. I would definitely recommend her, and her love and care for all animals is incredibly apparent!”
“Ellie took amazing care of our girls! Our girls don't like being away from us and it was such a relief for us to know they were in such great hands. She did an excellent job communicating with us while we were gone. Our girls loved Elliot staying with them, we will definitely be contacting her again!”
“Sammie was great with my dogs! They have very high energy at times and like to wreck things but she played with them and hung out with them and they had zero issues while she was here! Will definitely use her again!”
About: I've taken care of many dogs for friends and family members. Trained puppies for family as well as my own. Cared for older dogs who needed extensive care. Provided all types of care such as, walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and sitting. My schedule is very flexible so I have lots of availability. Morning drop offs and pick ups are great but can adjust as needed. Don't hesitate to reach out with questions. I have a spacious yard and only one small dog who gets along well with other dogs. My home does have space for a crate if needed.
About: I'm a 39 year old direct care worker. I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I currently have a dog and cat. My experience in pet care is from taking care of my own and volunteering for friends and family. I was a kennel technician for a year at the Humane Society and have volunteered there over the years. I am working minimum part time right now. I am available during days and evenings, as I work 3rd shift, and will be available some nights and overnights also. I will follow the established routine you provide, providing plenty of companionship and care your pet needs, ensuring your their safety, all while giving you regular updates.
“Murphy is not accustomed to being with someone else. He loved Kevin. Kevin kept me informed so I could relax. I know he really cared about Murphy and his well-being. Thank you Kevin”
“Matthew is an awesome dog/cat sitter! He sent lots of photos and videos of our pets and was very easy to communicate with. He responded quickly to my questions and requests. Would highly recommend him.”
About: Hi there! I’ve owned and loved dogs my entire life and can’t think of a better way to spend my days than taking care of your baby(ies) like they’re my own! On top of 10 years of owning and caring for my own dogs, I have 4 years of professional pet care experience. Open to elderly and medically complex dogs, and available for short notice bookings as well as most holidays. :) My schedule is pretty open, so I have all the time and attention in the world to give your furry friends. Open for both drop in visits and long term stays. I am happy to care for your pets in your home and, for longer stays, do some light housekeeping as well. In depth instructions for your pet(s) are my best friend; there’s nothing I want more than to know exactly how to make your baby feel their most comfortable. Don’t be afraid to go into detail!
“Alyssa was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our dog and home while we were away and she sent us daily updates and pictures of our dog’s activities. We highly recommend Alyssa! She is responsible, attentive, and your pet will be in great hands!”
“This was our first time using Rover and having someone other than family watch our pups. Michelle was great about getting all of the details before the stay and really helped make us feel at ease! It was great having the option for our pups to stay @ home while we were out of town and could really tell they enjoyed hanging with Michelle.”
“Kristin is so amazing and we are so grateful to have found her! She loves our pups and takes such good care of w brushing for us! She is a prompt communicator, very flexible, super patient and understanding. I would always recommend her to anyone- she brings us so much peace of mind so we can enjoy our time away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Borculo
Having Kaylan sit for our fur baby was a great experience. She was always in great in communication leading up, during, and at the end of her souse sitting. You’d never know someone lived in our home for a week with her attentiveness to detail. And most importantly, Daisy was in good hands and well loved while we were gone. I highly recommend Kaylan.

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 Borculo 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 Borculo 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 Borculo 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!

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 .

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.
