About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet lover who understands that pets are more than just animals, they’re family. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your furry family members in someone else’s care, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting tailored to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Visits can include neighborhood walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, cuddles, companionship, and enrichment. Whether your dog has energy to burn, your cat enjoys some quiet company, or your pet simply needs someone to keep them company, I’m happy to make their time with me enjoyable. I believe the best pet care starts with getting to know the individual pet. Every animal has their own personality, habits, comfort level, and favorite things. Some pets are immediately excited to make a new friend, while others need a little patience before they feel comfortable. I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the attention they need. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and do my best to keep their normal routine consistent. One of the biggest advantages I can offer is flexibility. I currently have an open schedule, allowing me to dedicate substantial time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting and can often accommodate different schedules and routines. Rather than rushing through a visit, I enjoy taking the time to interact with pets, give them exercise and enrichment, and make sure they’re comfortable before I leave. I also understand that good communication is an important part of pet care. I’ll pay attention to your pet’s behavior and needs, follow any special instructions you provide, and keep you informed during visits. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing that your pet is getting individual attention and care. Most of all, I genuinely enjoy being around animals. Getting to know their personalities, earning their trust, taking them on walks, playing with them, or simply sitting beside them is something I find rewarding. My goal is for every pet to look forward to seeing me and for every owner to feel confident that their pet is in caring hands. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can count on whenever they need a little extra attention, exercise, companionship, or love. I currently do not work, which gives me plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or sitting anytime you need. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I always prioritize your pet’s with safety, comfort, and will follow their normal routines, feeding instructions, and house rules. I can also crate your dog, keep pets separated, provide medication, etc. when needed.
“Alivia was a super communicative and kind easy to work with sitter. From walking through the care instructions for my senior dog, to daily updates on how he was doing, I felt like he was in safe hands and could enjoy my time away. Definitely recommend working with her!”


“Maria did a great job taking care of Charlie. She also made sure the house was exactly like we left it. The only glitch was a problem with her schedule that delayed her initial arrival. I would definitely use Maria again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies for the past four years for neighbors and friends. I provide entertainment, walks, fresh food and water, and ensure the safety of your pet. I’m currently working part time so I have a flexible schedule and I am available for pet sitting and check ins with your furry friends. I provide fresh food and water, change litter boxes, ensure the safety of your pet, provide pictures and updates, and provide entertainment and medication administration when needed.
“Allyson took great care of Maverick and he loved her - he’s sometimes selective in who he likes but he immediately felt comfortable with her. She sent me updates, left my house exactly as it was, and even picked up his poop in the yard. I had to change plans and times a few times and she was more than accommodating. I’ve already booked her two more times because I know I can trust she’ll take care of my pup.”

About: I've taken care of a multitude of different dogs since I was 13-14. Neighbors, friends, family have relied on me to take care of their fur babies. I feed, walk, bathe, and nourish their pets as if they were my own. I'm currently in school still right now but I have plenty of time on the weekends and after 3pm during the week. Once the summer picks up I will be more available I come with a positive attitude ready to take care of your pets as if they were mine. I find joy in the outdoors so taking your animals out to get some fresh air is no problem.

I can assure you that you will return to a home that is just as you left it.

I ensure top-notch care by carefully boarding pets that I believe will do well in my house. To provide the best experience, I would need to know your pet's daily routines, medication requirements, and any other special needs.
“Hannah watched our dog and house this past weekend and did a wonderful job! Scooby loved spending time with her and she even went above and beyond for us, getting mail and watering our flowers. Will definitely ask her to stay again.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working night shift 3 nights out of the week, but I could be available for walks or pet sitting any other time. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.

About: I was raised with Boston Terriers. I can’t remember a time when one or more than one was not a part of my life. I love all fur babies though, size does not matter. I retired from the Federal Government after 30 years last September. I’m available and ready to help you provide care for your fur babie! I am able and willing to deliver whatever type of care you need to provide peace of mind for you, your family, and your fur babies.

About: HIGHLIGHTS: -Insured -Comfortable w/ large and small dogs and knows the different requirements in care -No kids in home -Dog kennels provided for when necessary, no need to lug yours with you -38 year old home owner w/ privacy fence in back yard -Work from home sitter -Regular updates and pictures -Has read dog psychology and taken dog training classes with my dog. I believe pets deserve respect and autonomy and I'll do my best to treat your babies like I treat my own boys. I've read a few dog psychology books so I do have a good understanding of different communication styles that dogs may have and I have experience with reactive dogs and elderly dogs as well. When I walk your dog, I have no problems communicating with strangers and setting boundaries. I am very protective of my animal clients peace and safety. I always err on the side of caution. With pets, I am gentle but firm and it creates an environment that dogs love. I love playing with dogs and engaging their minds. I also communicate with your pet to ensure they are happy (which room they prefer, how they like to be pet, how they like to be played with) and I tell them every day that you're coming back. I genuinely love each animal that I interact with and treat them how I'd want them to be treated if they were mine. I'm also punctual and communicative. My late dog was also reactive and could be aggressive, so I have experience dealing with large dogs that have strong boundaries. I work from home so I am available to stay with your pet all day long! When I do leave, it's usually never for more than 4 hours and I have a L crate and an XL crate that your babies can stay in if needed. For sitting in your home, I do bring my 6lb chihuahua. If your dog needs to be separated from small I have a large backyard with a privacy fence on all four sides. I have a 20 y/o but there is a pet gate that keeps the house in two parts. Your pet will not interact with my pet at all. Dogs have their own room and will be allowed free roam of one half of my home. It's a large space.

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 Fountain N' Lakes 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 Fountain N' Lakes 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 Fountain N' Lakes 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.

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.
