About: I have a Bachelors degree in Canine Training and Management from SUNY Cobleskill. Currently, I work and train detection canines. With this background, I have experience with all kinds of pups. Including: puppies, seniors, behavioral issues, rescues, etc. I have always had dogs and couldn’t imagine my life without them! Currently, my job is very flexible so I can provide potty and play breaks often. I have a large house and yard, so lots of room to stretch out. They will be given their own room with a bed and anything requested. With my 4 pups, they will have options to make friends as well. I will always follow instructions of how my client wants their companion cared for. I am comfortable with crate time, structured schedules, and even cuddle time!

About: I've always had pets in my life whether its cats, dogs, fish, pigs, lambs, bunnies or birds. They weren't all mine but I'm a part of a big animal loving family and we were raised to treat them all like our own. I know the value of loving your pet but providing structure for them as well. I will respect the guidelines that you have set for your pet, while showering them with love and attention. Regardless of the service, your loved one will be given love, respect and kindness throughout our time together. I hope to see you and your pet soon! :) I work full time during the week and have my babies to attend during that time so I have weekends available for walks and check-ins. I am only available for check ins and walking. I love in an apartment that doesn’t allow for more pets in the place. Sorry about that

“Mel is clearly in-tune with dogs - well at least my dog, Bean! She was immediately affectionate with him and continued to be easy in his presence while we all got to know each other. During his first drop-in with Bean while I was away, he was super communicative - even sending a picture early in his visit showing Bean relaxing in the yard.”

About: As a devoted pet sitter with over five years of experience, including a professional background as a veterinary assistant, I bring a heartfelt blend of expertise and genuine love to every pet I care for. I’m passionate about animals, and my extensive experience ensures that your furry friends receive top-notch attention, whether it’s for their daily needs, special care, or in an emergency. I know every pet is unique, and I customize my services to fit their individual personalities and requirements, offering not just care, but also companionship and affection. When you choose me as your pet sitter, you can rest easy knowing your pets are in the hands of a seasoned professional who treats them like family. Taking care of pets is my passion, and I love making it a part of my everyday life. I’m here for all the meals, playtimes, and overnight snuggles, ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for around the clock. My Daily Routine: Morning Check-ins and Feedings: Each day starts with saying good morning to your furry friend and making sure they have a hearty breakfast. It's a special moment where we check in and start the day on a positive note. Exercise and Playtime: After breakfast, it's time for some fun! Whether it’s a brisk walk, a game of fetch, or some gentle play indoors, I tailor each session to match your pet’s energy and mood. Regular Breaks: Throughout the day, I make sure your pet has plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, meals, and some downtime. These regular breaks keep their routine predictable and comforting. Overnight Stays: Continuous Care and Companionship: I know some pets need that extra bit of companionship at night, so I offer overnight stays to make sure they never feel lonely. We’ll stick to their usual bedtime routine, creating a peaceful and secure environment for a good night's sleep. Calm and Secure Environment: I’m all about keeping things familiar and comforting, making bedtime a smooth transition with lots of cuddles and reassurance. Flexibility and Dedication: Adaptable Schedule: Life can be unpredictable, and I’m always ready to adjust my schedule to meet the unique needs of your pet. Whether it’s an extra play session or a last-minute overnight stay, I’m here to help. Attentive and Loving Care: Above all, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them all the attention and affection they deserve. With me, your pet is not just cared for—they're cherished. Every meal, every play session, every quiet moment is a chance to show them love and make them feel special. When it comes to caring for pets, I always tailor my approach to the unique needs of each furry friend to ensure their comfort, safety, and happiness. In my home, I create a welcoming and secure environment with designated areas for play, rest, and meals. I stick to a structured routine that includes regular feeding times, exercise, and fun enrichment activities to keep pets both mentally and physically stimulated. For those with special needs or health concerns, I develop personalized care plans and closely monitor their well-being.

Heather was an excellent dog sitter of our 2 pitbull babies. She showed up right on time and even stayed a little bit longer while we settled up at our event. She was friendly, communicative before & during her in-home visit, she listened well to instructions and asked relevant questions. If im ever in the area again i would definitely rebook w her.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - El Llano

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 270 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across El Llano. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in El Llano. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
