“Kevin stayed with our Abby for 10 days while we went on vacation. Abby has anxiety when it comes to storms and unfortunately, there was one on day one and Kevin managed her medication along with her daily medications and finicky diet. I got the impression that he really enjoyed. Abby and I know Abby was happy with his care. He was great and very communicative, kind, and respectful of our home.He inquired as to what to do with linens ad left it in great condition. We are grateful that we found Kevin on Rover and will be happy to have him care for Abby again!”

She is an amazing pet/house sitter and if she is available, book her IMMEDIATELY! We will 1000% be booking Paige again!”

About: I am a reliable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that each animal has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, including puppies that need patience and consistency as well as senior dogs that require extra attention and gentle care. I am comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic medications, providing regular exercise, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. What sets me apart is my commitment to dependable, personalized care. I focus on building trust with both pets and their owners, ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I am currently working from home three days a week. I am available for drop ins and walking from 8 am to 9 pm and anytime on weekends. When caring for pets, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the home itself. I provide walks, playtime, companionship, fresh water, meals, and plenty of attention while keeping the environment clean and secure.

Louise was GREAT with our dog and cat. Our dog can be a little shy and nervous around new people and Louise made sure she was comfortable and on her schedule. We got married the night Louise stayed over and we were over joyed that she sent us picture updates throughout the day and morning of. We couldn't be more thankful!
Ella was the sweetest & did such a great job watching my pets! I have a little mini dog & a big cat, & I was out of town for a wedding event, so it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She was great about sending me updates without me even having to ask, & she sent me SO many cute pictures and videos of them 🥹 It honestly made being away so much easier! She was super sweet, reliable, & I could tell she genuinely cared about my pets. I would 100% recommend Ella & would absolutely use her again! 🐶🐱💕 Thanks Ella!
Alyssa did a wonderful job of watching my 2 dogs and 2 cats for the 3 weeks I was away. She is very responsible and takes full accountability for the care of the animals and home. I appreciated the multiple pictures and check-ins. You could tell through the pictures the animals really took to her. She also took good care of my house by keeping it clean, plants watered and mail taken in.
So thankful to have Vanessa watch our dog. She was able to pivot with a last minute logistics issue. She provided many updates and photos throughout the day. I love that my dog was comfortable enough to keep his normal eating and napping schedule, so I know he enjoyed his time!
Cordelia was incredibly communicative & sent photos of my sweet dog multiple times a day! She followed all of my given instructions and made sure to get in a couple of longer walks a day! My dog seemed very happy and comfortable with her. Thank you so much Cordelia!
Nicole was absolutely exceptional. From start to finish, she was professional, communicative, attentive, and genuinely caring. It was immediately clear how much she truly loves animals, and our dog absolutely adored her. While we were away, Nicole kept us updated regularly and gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our dog was in such great hands. She treated him like her own, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. Finding someone you fully trust with your dog is not easy, and Nicole exceeded every expectation we had. She is dependable, thoughtful, kind, and clearly takes great pride in the care she provides. We would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely wonderful sitter. Thank you again, Nicole, for taking such amazing care of our dog. We are incredibly grateful and look forward to booking with you again soon.
We recently had Nora stay over for our 2 dogs, Honey and Louise. She came and met us and the dogs beforehand. What a sweet young lady and our dogs warmed up to her immediately. She sent updates and pictures throughout. Honey is a nervous nelly and I was so relieved to see her sleeping on the bed with Nora, quite content. She left the place spotless. I can't say enough good things about Nora. She is the best!! <3
Brianna was amazing! I was in a really tight spot looking for someone to watch Ace right before Thanksgiving, and she responded so quickly. We did a meet and greet and Ace loved her right away. I ended up extending the stay, and when I got back from vacation my home was exactly the way I left it. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!
Lauren was absolutely incredible while staying at our home for a few days to care for our two dogs and cat. One of our pups required daily medication, and she handled it with total professionalism and care. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and it was clear our pets were happy, relaxed, and well-loved the entire time. We came home to a spotless house and three content animals who clearly adored her. It’s such a relief knowing we can trust someone so responsible, kind, and attentive with our pets and home. We couldn’t recommend Lauren more highly. She’s a gem, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!

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 Cliffwood 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 Cliffwood 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 Cliffwood 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
