The owner of the house has chihuahuas, but they remain on the outside porch or in her room. I do not care for them .Would I need to include this in the "my pets" section?
RED FLAG, RED FLAG, RED FLAG!! Your living situation doesn't sound like a good environment for you to become a Rover Sitter and offer boarding or day care The owner and their dogs WOULD need to be part of every meet and greet you hold as they are part of the household, regardless of whether you mention this in your "about me" section. It also makes me think that the Rover insurance won't provide coverage in case of an incident and you could be held liable for all costs associated with the incident. Before you submit your profile I highly recommend you speak with Rover support @ [Edit: Rover’s contact options have changed. Visit the Rover Help Center at https://support.rover.com/ to find the phone number, help articles, or chat with the team] and explain your living arrangements - best of luck
If there is a chance that the dogs you are caring for would have interaction with those dogs, I would list them and you can include in the description that they are not yours but are in the home. If they are kinda like having a next door neighbor with dogs, then I might just write a little info about it in your About Me. Some pet owners are looking for sitters that won't have any other dogs because their dog doesn't get along with or do well with other dogs and sometimes it can be a nasty shock if they come over for a Meet & Greet or drop off and there are dogs there that they weren't expecting.
