About: Animals have always been a massive part of my life. I recently shared 18 wonderful years with my own sweet dog, and missing her has made me realize how much love I still have to give. I would look after your pet as if they were my own—providing a calm, patient, and deeply affectionate home away from home. I understand the unique bond we share with our animals and will ensure yours feels completely safe and cherished." While I work full-time Monday through Friday, I’m available to care for pets on weekends and after work, starting around 5:30 PM. I’m dependable, attentive, and will make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, and love during the time I’m with them.

I also keep pet areas clean and provide regular updates and photos to their owners so they know how their pet is doing.
“Jess was amazing. She is very responsible. She sent me videos and pictures and let me know if my dog had any medical issues. Jess was also very flexible in solving any problem that would arise. 5 stars across the board!”

There were some last minute challenges thrown in the mix with Eve getting sick and needing to receive medications while I was away and Kathy’s experience was a game changer for easing my mind while away. She also did a great job giving love to my cats who did drive by visits with her throughout the stay. I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a seasoned animal lover who will send updates and pictures daily.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I have both dogs and cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter boxes, giving lots of attention, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you get plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away! 🐶🐱💕 My schedule changes biweekly, which gives me a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care! I’m able to accommodate different days and times depending on your needs, including weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to work around your cat’s normal routine and can often accommodate last-minute requests as well. 🐾 Your cat’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow your care instructions closely and make sure their routine stays as normal as possible while you’re away. I’m very mindful of doors, feeding instructions, litter boxes, and keeping their environment clean and secure. I’ll give your cat attention based on their personality—whether they love cuddles and playtime or prefer their own space—and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. 🐱🤍
“Audrey did a great job watching Murph over the weekend! She was communicative, respectful of my home, and sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the stay. I came back to a happy pup and a tidy house. Would definitely book her again.”
“This was our first time using someone who we didn’t know to care for our baby. Upon meeting Vianca, she was so friendly and kind. She listened and understood our pets needs & followed them perfectly. She sent photos throughout the evening and kept us updated. I couldn’t recommend her enough! We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Nicole O was amazing!!!! We felt so comfortable from the minute we met her. My dogs loved her and she did an incredible job. Great communication, on time, reliable and so friendly. Highly recommend Nicole!!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely love. I have 15+ years of hands-on experience caring for animals, from my own pets and family pets to working in the pet industry. I’ve cared for many different kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes, and bunnies, and I’ve learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, quirks, and way of communicating. I really enjoy taking the time to get to know each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. My experience also includes pet sitting, dog walking, boarding, training, enrichment, and learning about pet nutrition and everyday animal care. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household preferences. I’ve also worked with pets who need a little extra patience or understanding, and I believe the best care comes from paying attention to the little things—whether that's recognizing when a shy pet needs space, giving an energetic dog plenty of play and exercise, or simply keeping a nervous animal company. Most importantly, I don't see pet care as simply a job. I genuinely love animals, and I want every pet I care for to feel like they're spending time with someone who truly enjoys being around them. 🐶🐱🐰🐠🦜🐍💕 I’m available Monday–Friday from 5:00 PM–11:45 PM, with open availability on weekends from 10:00 AM–11:45 PM. I’m happy to work with your schedule and can be flexible when possible. 😊 Whether your pet needs an evening visit, a late-night check-in, or weekend care, I’d love to help! 🐶🐱💕 I treat every pet and every home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions before their care begins. When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of their space and keep their environment clean, secure, and comfortable. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are safely secured, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and stay attentive to their behavior and surroundings. When caring for pets in my own environment, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised space where their safety and comfort come first. I never assume every pet has the same needs, so I adjust my approach to each individual animal. I also believe communication is a big part of trust. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and being genuinely cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕

I truly cannot recommend Eduardo enough! If I could give him more than five stars, I absolutely would. I’ve actually been a dog sitter myself for many dogs over the years, so I know what I look for in someone caring for mine. This was my first time leaving my 14-year-old and 4-year-old dogs with someone who wasn’t a friend or family member, and I was also traveling internationally, so I was definitely a little nervous going into it. The second I met Eduardo, though, I immediately felt at ease. My dogs took to him right away, and from the very beginning it was obvious how attentive and detail-oriented he is. He asked thoughtful, specific questions about each dog—their routines, personalities, quirks, preferences, and what makes them comfortable. He genuinely cared about keeping their normal schedule and making their time with him feel as familiar and stress-free as possible. Our dogs are relatively easy, but one does have some anxiety, especially during storms, and Eduardo handled him wonderfully. What impressed me most was how well he seemed to understand both of their individual personalities in such a short amount of time. He didn’t just make sure they were fed, walked, and taken care of—he genuinely spent time with them, engaged with them, and made them feel comfortable and loved. And the updates were AMAZING. They were detailed, thoughtful, funny, and came with the best pictures. With every update, I felt like I was getting a little glimpse into their day rather than just receiving the standard “dogs are good!” message. You could genuinely see how happy and relaxed they were in every photo. He picked up on all of their little nuances and personality traits, and somehow managed to capture them perfectly. Even while I was thousands of miles away, I still felt completely connected to what they were doing and how they were feeling. Funny enough, my husband and I were on two separate trips that weekend, and both of our groups had friends who also had dogs at home with pet sitters. We were each sharing Eduardo’s updates with our respective groups, and EVERYONE was blown away by him—especially compared with the updates they were receiving from their own sitters! By the end of the weekend, Eduardo had basically developed a fan club of people who had never even met him. 😂 He was also incredibly respectful of our home. We came back to everything exactly as we had left it and, most importantly, to two very happy, relaxed dogs who clearly had an amazing weekend themselves. There is such a huge difference between finding someone who will simply take care of your pets and finding someone who makes you feel completely comfortable being away from them. Eduardo is absolutely the latter. The peace of mind he gave us was invaluable, and I never once worried about whether our dogs were safe, happy, or getting enough attention. I would recommend Eduardo 100 times over. He is attentive, trustworthy, communicative, responsible, kind, and clearly genuinely loves the animals he cares for. We feel incredibly lucky to have found him and will absolutely be booking him again. Anyone who gets Eduardo as their sitter—and any pet who gets to spend time with him—is incredibly lucky!
Maryann was absolutely great! She helped out a very little notice, was extremely flexible, listened and implemented our instructions, sent us lots of pictures and most importantly treated our doggie as if it was her own. Maryann will be our forever “go to” sitter
Kathy was amazing taking care of dog Eve for a long weekend. There were some last minute challenges thrown in the mix with Eve getting sick and needing to receive medications while I was away and Kathy’s experience was a game changer for easing my mind while away. She also did a great job giving love to my cats who did drive by visits with her throughout the stay. I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a seasoned animal lover who will send updates and pictures daily.
Jaclyn is wonderful! We recommend her highly and without reservation. She watched our two dogs, a bullmastiff and a lab mix, and she exceeded our expectations. Our dogs bonded with her instantly, she was attentive to all their needs, and she kept us updated daily with photos and stories. Perfect!
Erika was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. She stayed with them at my apartment for several days. My Lhasa Apso is a subborn pain in the butt that isn’t comfortable with being left with strangers. But Erica won him over!! My other baby is a pug mix with diabetes. She lost her site due to the diabetes as well. She gets insulin injections twice per day along with a couple diff eye drops. It’s crucial that she gets her medication’s at exactly 12 hours apart every single day. She can’t be late and she can’t miss a dosage. She made sure to stay on top of it every single day. She sent me pictures and videos several times a day. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my babies than Erika. I have been in Florida for 5 1/2 years and I finally found someone to take care of them when I want to leave to see my kids out of state and not feel stressed or worried about their care 💕🙌 I highly recommend
Shay was a pleasure to meet. Very personable and friendly from the moment I met her. I have two dogs that can be a bit timid, and nervous with new people. She has a nice calming spirit about her and they both took to her quickly. I appreciate all the pictures and detailed updates she sent. She left the house, looking great and emptied the trash and made sure the boys had water. Everything was perfect! I will definitely book with her again whenever she’s available. She was very responsive from when I first contacted her through the whole booking. Thank you the boys loved you!
Christine was absolutely amazing watching our dogs while we were on vacation. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She treated them like her own — giving them love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Christine kept us updated with messages and pictures, which meant so much and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. When we came home, our dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and genuine love for animals. We would highly recommend Christine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She is the best!
This is my fourth time hiring Yanela for overnight stays to watch Rosco (dog) and Bongo (bird) while I'm away on business. There's a reason I keep going back, and there's not enough space to even describe how amazing she is. She's a true animal lover and treats every pet as her own. I just wanted a set of eyes on my pets, but she takes Rosco everywhere! She takes him for walks, goes to parks, watches movies, and takes naps with him in the hammock. Rosco is treated like a spoiled rock star! She constantly sends pics or videos, so you'll always know your pets are in good hands and doing great. She also sends pics when she arrives, when they're fed, and when they're put to bed. I have a housekeeper, so I told Yanela to leave the bed unmade, but she makes it up beautifully and leaves everything spotless. You won't even know she was there. She is perfect beyond belief, and if you hire her one time, you'll understand. If there's anything negative to say, I think Rosco is starting to like her more than me! He's always so thrilled to see his "Aunt Yanela," and that means I can leave with total confidence that everything will be handled with great care. Rosco says "woof," which I think is Chihuahua for "thank you so much for a super fun weekend and taking great care of me!" He's looking forward to seeing her again in April. So, if you just need a sitter, you can probably find many good ones on Rover.com But if you need someone who shines brighter than all, who's super responsible, and who will treat your pets with the utmost care, attention, and love, Yanela is your five-star choice!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Golf on Rover is $45.81 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,159 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Golf. 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 Golf 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 Golf 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 Golf 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Golf. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
