“Cotter (John) was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our Bernese Mountain Dog from 9/19–9/21! He was incredibly kind, caring, and attentive, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such great hands. Cotter was also excellent with communication and kept us updated throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. His experience as a sitter is extensive, and it shows in his level of care! When we returned home, the house was absolutely perfect; everything was clean and well cared for. We would highly recommend Cotter and will definitely use him again!”

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, kind and caring pet sitter!”
About: My love for animals goes beyond being a pet owner. Through my volunteer experience at animal shelters, I’ve gained hands-on experience socializing animals, handling dogs with different temperaments and needs, and administering medication when needed. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and that patience, consistency, and compassion are essential to helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra care and attention, I strive to provide a calm, nurturing environment tailored to their needs. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and responsible, and I understand the importance of following your pet’s routines and care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is receiving the same love, respect, and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet isn’t just a pet—they’re family, and I’ll treat them like one! At the moment, my availability is very flexible. I can provide service at any day and time. I’m local and can travel for clients. In addition, I’m very responsive. I like to make all animals feel at home by providing a relaxed environment. I have a fenced in yard. All animals should be loved and approached with patience.
“Spencer is the BEST! He has watched my pets before, including staying at my house for overnights while I was away. My dog Max is fairly large (about 90lbs) and extremely timid. It usually takes a few hours for Max to warm up to men, if at all, but Spencer had no problem at all earning Max's trust. Spencer has also watched my 2 cats, one of which (Bella) was very elderly and had complex health needs. Bella required constant care- including that she had chewing fatigue and would only eat her food in a specific way, which Spencer made for her (pureed boiled chicken with chicken broth). Spencer is trustworthy and really has a gift with animals. I highly recommend him!”
“Absolutely wonderful! Very friendly and communicative. Our girls were super relaxed and happy when we got home to a very clean house. 10/10 would book again. Thank you for all of the pics and updates on our girls over the course of your stay.”
“David, was great with our 85+lb 1 year old puppy. He kept him safe, gave him plenty of exercise and attention, and even some training reinforcement. David was punctual, neat and tidy in the house, and truly loves animals. I would not hesitate to use him again and have already booked for our next service.”

“Eric did a house / dog sit at my home for about a week. He was an excellent communicator and gave me great updates on how my pup, Lucy, was doing. The house was in great shape when I returned and Lucy was clearly happy and well taken care of. Would highly recommend Eric for any rover needs. Thanks!”
“Carlie is an excellent pet sitter! She watched my dog after bilateral TPLO surgery. I was very hesitant to leave and Carlie took such good care of my pup. She’s very communicative and gave me plenty of updates.”
“Haley was amazing with our dog Frost! She was responsive and friendly. Haley took excellent care of him while we were away. She provided photos and videos. It helped us to enjoy our time away knowing he was being well cared for!”
About: My dog Chanel is my world so it would be a pleasure to share that same love to others. I’ve grown up around dogs between all of my family so this is a joy to experience. I currently work day shifts and very loyal to my schedule of care with my dog at home. It would be no burden or issue at all to care for others 4 legged friends. The same care I provide to my own as if she was my daughter is the same care I’d give to others pets. Any dog in my care is my family.
About: I’ve had the opportunity to know and take care of so many pets over the past 10 years, they’ve become family to me. I’m an active person who loves playing with dogs and taking them on adventures. I’ve sat and walked many breeds, sizes, and ages, across all kinds of environments, including a long-term role as a private pet care provider for a high-profile client. Animals are a passion of mine, and I believe they deserve only the best from the people who care for them. I’m always eager to make new connections, message me and let’s set something up! My schedule varies week to week since I work shifts that change regularly, but I keep pet care flexible around it. I check my availability closely before committing to anything, so if I say yes, you can count on me to be there. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit both our schedules — just reach out and we’ll figure it out together When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care I’d want for my own — sticking closely to your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions you give me. I’m attentive to their environment, making sure doors and gates are secure and nothing is out of place that could put them at risk. I always keep an eye out for changes in behavior or health, so if anything seems off, you’ll hear from me right away. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first, always.

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 Carmel Hamlet 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 Carmel Hamlet 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 Carmel Hamlet 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 .
