We already booked our second trip and can rest easy knowing our girls will be in great hands. Thank you J + P! See you soon <3”

I highly recommend her for others looking for a pet sitter and will definitely request her when I need a pet sitter in the future!”

She was exactly what we needed, communicated well and understood all our instructions.”

When we returned, the dogs were happy and healthy and our house looked great! Looking forward to having Brandon back for a longer stay.”

About: I have a love for animals, and believe that I have a gift for understanding their needs and feelings when in new spaces or surrounded by new people. I enjoy playing and cuddling with both cats and dogs, but of course, will listen when they show signs of needing space or extra attention. I have mostly taken care of family members and close friends fur babies at their homes. Before I leave from my house-sitting stay, I'll do a little bit of light house cleaning, leave a note and if you are comfortable, I will send you at least 1 daily photo or video of your animal so that you can see how we are doing! I have given dogs medications, if this something that is needed. I'm fully committed to pet and house sitting at this time! I love have an open schedule, so if plans are to change on your end, I am more than likely able to be flexible. I am observant and cautious when it comes to looking over your beloved animals! Before entering and exiting homes, I always am sure that your indoor fur babies, don't find their way out.
About: I have been watching my family dogs since I was a kid. looked after childhood german shepard until she was 18 and raised my family basset hound and husky from puppies. trained my family husky during the pandemic. I love dogs and animals and am looking forward to meet so many more :) I am currently only working for my family dogs (no job) so I have plenty of time to work for more dogs part time :) I love dogs and will treat every dog with the same gentleness and loving that I would provide in my own home. I will not let your dog get away with doing something they are not supposed to but of course kindness to your family member is my priority.
About: I love animals and have been around and cared for them all of my life. I have two dogs of my own and owned a horse ranch for the last 20 years. I now live in a new neighborhood, with a fully fenced yard. I do work during the day so my husband cares for our Rover pets while I am gone. All dogs love him and he is home during the day. I am a very experienced horse owner and can provide care for livestock as well as cats, dogs and birds. I raised Andalusian horses and have been around them most of my life. Pets are my passion, are important and I love to be around them. They make me happy and I would love to pamper your pets! For house sitting clients, I do work from 6-2pm. I am happy to house sit but am gone during those hours. My husband lets the dogs out as needed all day long. He is home all of the time, so we do not leave our boarders alone. Our clients pets interact with our own pets. We cannot take in pets that do not get along with other dogs and cats. Our boarders will sleep with us or on their own bed if one is brought.
“Salem took great care of all three of our animals over the holidays and kept us super up to date with how they were doing. He kept up with medication and training and left the house super tidy.”
“Erika and Cristopher were absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Kailo & Kiara. We received lots of pictures and thoughtful updates every day, which helped us feel completely at ease while traveling. When we came home, the house was immaculately clean and the dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly well‑cared for. They went above and beyond in every way, and we’re so grateful for the care and attention they gave our pups. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, kind, and attentive sitters.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for and trained pets for as long as I can remember. I’m comfortable with different ages, personalities, energy levels, and routines, including puppies and basic training. I’ve volunteered with animal shelters and Walk for the Animals for multiple years, and I also have experience house and pet sitting for multi-pet households. One included caring for a dog, a bunny, three adult cats, and four kittens at the same time! I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’ll care for yours with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. ❤️ I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, playtime, companionship, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. I follow your care instructions closely and take time to learn each pet’s personality, boundaries, and needs. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

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 Fargher Lake 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 Fargher Lake 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 Fargher Lake 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
