About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.
About: Hello! I have been professionally pet sitting in California and in Chicago for over two years now! I have worked at 2 dog day cares where I have cared for over a thousand dogs and have worked as animal care aid where I would care for over 2 thousand animals on a daily basis. My experience with caring for animals has been with dogs/puppies, horses, ponies, pigs, rabbits, tortoises, guinea pigs, parrots, cats/kittens/feral cats, ducklings, chickens and over 620 geese. Also through pet sitting on rover I adopted my dog Ace <3 that you will see on my pictures along with all the dogs I cared for through this app! As you can tell, I love working with animals and would love to expand my experience by caring for your pets! I’m available 24/7 to care for pets and would be more than happy to accommodate any special requests. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I can ensure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve whenever needed. I prioritize a pet’s comfort and well being, by following my clients instructions to make sure your pet's feel safe and cared for. If your pet stays with me, I will provide a comfortable and secure environment, ensuring they have everything they need. I also respect boundaries and special care requests to make the experience stress free for both you and your pet.
“Maria takes care of our Cane Corso (140lbs), she is so good with him and he loves her. She sends pics daily and truly cares for your baby. I highly recommend her for your sitting needs.”
“This was our 2nd time having Air watch our 2 small dogs in our home. Once again, it went amazing. The dogs were clearly loved on and well taken cared while we were away. The regular updates gave us peace of mind and helped us relax on vacation knowing our pups were happy and relaxed with Air watching them. I'm a protective dog mom and I feel very safe having Air watch my dogs. I highly recommend her services.”
“Kairo is awesome!! We have a lot of anxiety leaving our dogs, especially since we work remote and they’re used to having us home all the time. She gave us multiple daily updates and sent pictures. Our babies were well taken care of!”
“Kaylah stayed at my house and took care of my fur babies, all of them! She was on time arriving and followed each of my details regarding their park time (inside complex) and their feeding. Once I seen her taking them out at 6:00 AM each day, I was able to enjoy my time away. They warmed up to her and snuggled with her. I appreciate her care and I would use her again. Thanks Kaylah”
“Averie did a great job pet setting for our 18 year old dog Remy. She provided a calm, nurturing presence for him that made him feel comfortable. I would highly recommended Averie for house sitting/pet sitting.”
“Marissa was great! We had 2 meet and greets to ensure she was a good fit. She was very accommodating to our schedules and it gave us the confidence to leave our Great Pyrenees with someone who would give him good care. She updated us daily with texts and pictures. Took also him on several walks a day. We will definitely call on her again for our future vacations.”
“Paige was legit awesome. Professional and forward thinking about potential needs during her stay with our little ones. She provided them with everything we asked for plus more, while being communicative with updates. Awesome experience overall.”
“Laura was very professional and was completly comfortable with my pets right away. She kept me updated and asked/answered questions as needed. She even took the time to clean up after my dog with incontinence issues. And, lastly she added a sweet touch by putting out a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a note of appreciation. It was hard to leave my vacation, but coming home was great. I would recommend her.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She cared for our dog for three days while we were away. From our initial meet and greet, she was kind, patient, and attentive to his needs. She followed our care instructions and was very respectful of our home. We also appreciated her thoughtfulness in securing a few things in our backyard during an unexpected windstorm. It was a small gesture that meant a lot! We look forward to welcoming her back.”

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 Green Acres 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 Green Acres 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 Green Acres 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.
