“Jaylin did a wonderful job caring for my energetic Pomsky! She worked around the rainy weather to make sure Pepper got enough exercise. The house was left neat and tidy. 🙂”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals and have spent years caring for, walking, and helping rescue animals in need. Being around animals has always been something I genuinely love, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve had experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, and understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and energy level. I’m comfortable working with different temperaments and enjoy getting to know what makes each dog happy. I currently have a Border Collie of my own, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds and the importance of keeping dogs mentally and physically stimulated. I love going on long walks, exploring new places, playing, working on training, and finding fun ways to keep dogs engaged. My goal is to make every walk and visit something your dog looks forward to! I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and treated just like part of my own family. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I currently have completely open availability, allowing me to be flexible and accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets. I enjoy staying active and incorporating walks, playtime, exercise, and enrichment into a dog’s day. I can accommodate different energy levels and routines, whether that means long walks and adventures or a slower pace for older dogs. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I maintain a consistent routine with my own dog, which includes long walks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of mental stimulation. I love incorporating activities that keep dogs both physically active and mentally engaged, whether that’s exploring new places, practicing training, playing, or simply enjoying some outdoor time. When caring for someone else’s pets, I treat them just like my own. I make sure they are well-fed, exercised, comfortable, safe, and given plenty of affection and attention. I also understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to adjust my approach to fit their specific needs, whether they enjoy long adventures or prefer a slower, more relaxed day. My biggest goal is to make sure every dog feels loved, cared for, and happy while their family is away!
About: I am available 24 hours a day 7 days a week including all holidays. I am a huge animal lover and treat all animals as I would a member of my own family. I can provide additional services if needed such as: Vet Office visits, pickup food & supplies, bathing and some light grooming if needed. If you feel your special friend needs a day of pampering but you just don't have the time to take them I can also provide delivery to some of the local spas. If you ever feel like your best friend is not getting the attention or care that they deserve due to your busy lifestyle I assure you I can assist you with this. I may even be able to provide tips of how you can spend more time with them depending on the situation. I want you to never feel like you have no options or choices when it comes to spending time with your dog('s). In the very near future I will be providing 24 hour surveillance and location (GPS) services to all of my clients for a small additional fee to cover equipment costs.
“Elaina was great, it was like my dog wasn’t ready for her to leave!! Amazing first experience with Rover and Elaina. I highly recommend her, she was so patient and loving with my high energy frenchie.”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats. I love taking them for walks, the park or helping them learn to swim. I know the importance of giving dogs medications and taking them to appointments. I also keep dogs well groomed while I watch them I currently work full time 5 days a week but but will spend all my free time taking care of your pets. I will check on them throughout the day during work if needed I live in an apartment that has 1 bedroom. The apartment complex does allow animals. I have ring cameras in my place and outside my place to make sure I’m always able to see if my home and the animals are safe
“Great interaction and my dog wasn’t even mad at me when I returned. Usually he turns his back to me after I’ve been gone a few days (while sitting on my feet so I can’t leave again). Jayla must have kept him happy because he is relaxed and calm.”
About: I prefer animals over humans. Have had pets all my life. From small dogs like a chihuahua to large dogs like a boxer. Very attentive. Work from home and available on weekends. Can care for your pet all day since i work from home. I also enjoy walks and will walk your pet. Home is pet friendly and safe for all pets. Your pet will be leashed on walks. Unsafe rooms will be gated off so that they can stay in sight.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fredonia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 242 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fredonia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Fredonia 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 Fredonia 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 Fredonia 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.
