“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”
“Monica was absolutely fantastic! She took exceptional care of our two dogs, Gus and Daisy, while we were away, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When we returned home, the house was spotless—everything was clean, organized, and exactly as we had left it. It’s clear that Monica truly cares about both the pets and the homes she’s entrusted with. Her professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet/house sitter. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!”

We have already booked her for another date. Thank you, Tara!”

“We are so happy to have had Konnie care for our 2 dogs while we were away for 5 days. She sent wonderful pictures every day and we could tell that “the girls” were having a good time. Konnie also updated us daily about what the girls were up to. We would definitely recommend Konnie to anyone for excellent pet care. Thank so much, Konnie! Hope to hire you again in the future!”

“A+++ a fantastic person who was so caring for my little guy. Catherine provided just the right amount of updates with photos and videos of his progress / status. She took him on walks and helped him with his training journey. She’s thorough upfront to know what’s needed and is comfortable asking questions throughout. She’s thorough upfront to make the process smooth. She really earned my trust during this stay and I’d love to have her support again in the future.”
“It was such a relief to have Aidan caring for my dogs at my house while I was gone on my 8 day vacation. My pups are 14 and 11 years old and have special dietary and medical needs and he was able to keep them well fed, medicated and happy! This was the first time in their whole lives that I didn't have friends or family available to watch them, but I didn't have to worry as Aidan sent pictures and kept me up to date on how things were going. If I am in this situation again Aidan will be the first person I reach out to!”
About: My name is Holly. I am an animal lover! I grew up on a farm, so I am familiar with care of many types of animals. I have never not had a dog in my life. I have a flexible schedue, own my own home, work remotely full-time , and am very dependable. When house sitting, i do prefer stays less than 4 days, but willing to consider longer stays. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your furry loved ones! Why I love dog sitting I have had at least 1 dog my whole life. I've had breeds ranging from Chihuahuas, to Boxers, to Bull Terriers. Dogs are a blessing and I love having them in my life. I will administer pills and liquid drops, but not shots. I work remotely, so I am fully available to your pet. No children or anyone else in the house, so if your dog or cat needs a relaxing stay, I can provide that.
About: Throughout my years of pet sitting, I've had the opportunity to care for dogs of all kinds, including those who tend to get a little anxious. I've learned how to handle their needs with extra care and attention, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable during their stay. I'm experienced in administering medications on a strict schedule, so you can trust that your pet's health is my top priority. My goal is to make the entire process as smooth as possible for both you and your pet. Whether it's creating a soothing environment, sticking to medication routines, or just providing plenty of pets and love, I'm dedicated to making this a positive experience for everyone involved. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. Let me know how your preferences and we can collaborate to come up with a plan you would be comfortable with! I love dogs and I would treat them as if they were my own. I know that it can be nerve wrecking to leave your pet in the hands of someone else (especially someone you don't know). I would love to help alleviate any nerves by sending daily photos and updates.
About: I've had dogs all my life and I currently have one cat and 11 guinea pigs. I take care of my moms dogs all the time. I'm free all day. I'm an independent contractor so I have all the free time every day all day. I can come by anytime of the day. I will take the utmost care of your pet and will do everything I can to make them feel safe. I love being around animals.
About: I have been working in the veterinary field for six years now. I’ve been working with all kinds of animals. So I am willing to check in on anything from reptiles to dogs and cats! I currently work three days ( Thursday-Saturday). But I would still be able to drop in and checking on your pets! Can also make time to take them on a walk/ hike if need for the high energy doggies I currently live in an apartment so unfortunately I am unable to have other animals here. But I do have two very spoiled dogs of my own also have a leopard gecko of my own!!
“Carolyn was fantastic with my 6 month old pembroke welsh corgi! My little one absolutely loved her and her dog Zero. I was updated the whole time and could trust her with my dog and home. Highly recommend Carolyn!”
“Amanda was excellent! She knew just how to handle a shy little dog like Rosie. She took great care of her. I would highly recommend her and definitely use her again to watch our dog. Thank you, Amanda for making our trip more enjoyable!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Botzum
Samantha is absolutely AMAZING!!! Our 14 year old girl, Furby recently lost her two sisters so this was the first time she has been an only child and we didn’t want to leave her too long by herself. So thankfully we found Samantha. Samantha is so sweet and kind and Furby absolutely Loves her! Furby warmed up to Samantha immediately. Thank you for taking such good care of Furby for us, you helped put our mind at ease. And the pictures you sent while we were away made us so happy. Will continue to have you hangout with our Furby girl!!!
Kim took great care of our cats and our house as well! She dealt with a complicated feeding schedule and kept things running smoothly at the house. She provided updates every day and pictures at several points, which gave us confidence and assurance while we traveled. When we arrived home, the cats were relaxed, well fed and their demeanor was as if we never left. Thanks again to Kim and we would absolutely recommend her for taking care of your pets and keeping an eye on your home.
Brooke was great with our dog Calypso. She responded quickly, showed up on time for our meet and greet, & was open and friendly. She is obviously comfortable around dogs, and Callie could clearly sense that. . Brooke communicated clearly with me throughout the booking and sitting process.
Our pets absolutely adore Cassie! She is the absolute best with any animals she’s ever with! She excels in folllwoing instructions, taking cute pictures of the pets, and giving them the best cuddles! She’s been watching our pets for the last few years now, and we always know our house/pets will be in good order when she’s here. We will be using her plenty more times in the future, and are so thankful to have her!

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 Botzum 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 Botzum 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 Botzum 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 .

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.
