About: I have extensive experience with pets from doggy daycares to grooming shops to vet clinics. I have been pet sitting and grooming for the last 10 years. My home is basically for my furr babies. They're allowed on the furniture even though they have 5 of their own beds and 4 little hidey houses. They literally have over 100 toys, all kinds, that they are willing to share with any pup they welcome in here. The house is theirs, I just live here and clean up after them. I work from home and I have classes that are mostly online so, I am home basically all day. I'll be able to watch the dogs all day and I let them go outside about every hour or so to go potty. I have a fenced in yard with a few chickens in the yard. I have an above ground pool with a floating doggy dock to make it easy for them to get out of the pool if they ever jump in but its usually closed off unless it is being actively used. I have 2 friendly shih tzu sisters that are spoiled rotten and 2 little kittens that love playing with the dogs. Dogs can go on all furniture and there are plenty of toys to play with. There are a bunch of dog beds and comfy spots for them to chill inside.
“I don't have enough words to express how great Carrice is!!! Carrice was seriously amazing with my boy Otis. He’s a recent rescue and still has some house training issues, so leaving him with someone new was EXTREMELY nerve wracking for me, especially because me and him are still getting to know each other too. She made me feel so much better the entire time by constantly keeping me updated, sending me pics + vids, and letting me know how he was doing. She was so patient and understanding with his accidents and just really kind to him in general. He got so much love and attention, and she even taught him how to sit!! She also kept my house super clean while I was gone, which I didn’t even ask her to do, and I appreciated that so much, especially because I wasn’t feeling well when I got back. She’s honestly just a really great person - very patient, thoughtful, understanding, and communicative. I could tell Otis was really cared for and that meant a lot to me. I’d absolutely trust her with him again and would recommend her to anyone!! (:”
“Kendall stayed in our house to watch our two Goldens for an extended weekend. The pups seemed to have enjoyed themselves, and the house was very clean! She clearly took great care of them, and sent us picture updates the whole time. I will be contacting her again to book her in the future when needed, as I can know I can fully trust her in my house and with my dogs!”
“Alice was amazing! Her communication throughout the day was stellar, she was always swift to respond my texts and sent photos and videos at consistent morning, afternoon evening milestones. All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.”
About: I have had dogs all my life...I love them. I have a female Shepherd mix and a Golden Retriever. One is 7 and the other is 6. They are fantastic dogs and get along great with other dogs. I'm home all day and don't believe in just leaving them outside. My girls, Leela and Bindi, go out back with me often and play with their toys and then they come back in with me. You could trust your dogs in my care if it's overnight or just for the day. He or she is guaranteed to enjoy their time here. I do have a 7 year old daughter and a 2 month old grandson so I could not allow dogs that are aggressive with children or other dogs. If you need any further info please feel free to reach out. I work from home so my schedule is pretty open. My dogs just hang out with me while I work and I have learned their cues when they need outside. Whatever your dog is used to is what we would do. I do not want to crate a dog that is never crated in their own home.
About: I’ve helped train your German shepherd’s and they are the sweetest babies ever. Very well behaved and I also have a lot of patience for dogs especially puppies. I have a senior dog and also know the extra care that comes with having one. I’m a full time nail technician and stylist, meaning I have such a flexible schedule and if you need me to take care of your baby during the day I can always run and do so during my breaks. My work schedule at the salon is Tuesday-Saturday I can easily take your fur babies on walks, put them in their crate if needed feed them and also give them cuddles and rubs whenever they need them
“Kali is amazing! Our dogs get so excited to see her, and settle right into her presence as soon as she arrives. She's a great communicator and very punctual. Will continue to book!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and it was great. We have two dogs, one of which is sometimes anxious, so we didn't want to board them in a strange environment. Keri did a great job taking care of them and was even willing to feed and water our chickens and collect eggs.”
“Marisol always does great with Rocky. He always appears to have been well taken care of and enjoys her company. She also handled a confusing situation at my home and made Rocky's care the priority. She has been great.”

Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m very organized and make time for check-ins, feeding, playtime, and cleaning. I’m flexible with my schedule, so I can adjust to your pet’s needs and keep their routine consistent. I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment by following each pet’s routine exactly and paying attention to their behavior. In a client’s home, I make sure doors and windows are secure, keep dangerous items out of reach, and give pets a calm, stress-free space. I always handle pets gently, stay aware of their comfort levels, and keep you updated so you can trust they’re safe and well cared for.
About: I've worked in a doggy day care years ago, working with different breeds and dogs with different personalities. Helped train puppies and loved on senior pets. Since that job I have helped care for friends and families pets. Its always a treat to have little fur friends come over!! I am a business owner, redoing furniture and reselling vintage clothes. Writing my own schedule allows me to create time for another revenue stream to my brand TenderLovinKaren I have a fenced in yard and a large fenced in park right down the street. I love to go on hikes and if your dogs like to get out and explore I think they would enjoy staying with myself. I also enjoying lounging and cuddling up on the couch, and so if your dog is more into that vibe, I am good with that too.
About: Hiiiiiii! I’m Omoniyi, a dog mom and experienced pet sitter who genuinely loves making animals feel safe and comfortable. I’ve taken in dogs from friends and family since I was in college! I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and routines, and I know how important it is to have someone you can actually trust with both your pet and your home because of my Gigi girl. I’m attentive to: feeding schedules, walks, medications and instructions, favorite toys, quirks, cuddle preferences, and all the tiny preferences that make your pet feel at home. I work remotely, which means I’m able to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care rather than leaving them alone. I especially enjoy house sitting because it lets pets stay comfortable in their own environment. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to show mine. You can expect regular updates, plenty of photos, and communication that never leaves you wondering how things are going. And yes, the Maltipoo in my profile photo is mine 🤍 She will be your dogs new bestie if we’re doing any in house boarding! I work from home so it’s pretty ideal. I would love the company! I have a very flexible schedule and can be sure to walk/feed/play at the right times each day. I currently live alone and some added companionship would be great! I live in a pet friendly complex. There are two dog parks, and plenty of pet perks. I have open space in my apartment, and it’s pretty pet proof. I had to take in my brothers golden retriever for a time, and it worked out pretty well!
“Charlene was even more amazing the second time around when we asked her to house sit last minute. She kept our dogs entertained, well taken care of and our house exactly how we left it- clean! 😁 she is so great with my large dog who has separation anxiety and sent me tons of photos and videos of him having a great time which made me feel so comfortable. I will definitely be contacting her again for all of my house/dog sitting needs while we’re away.”
“Aundrea was excellent with our Hank, we booked her last minute for our ten day trip and she was immediately ready. She sent us pictures and videos of Hank at play and gave us updates about his leg that has been hurting him and also let us know about things going on around the house. When she left Hank was sad to see her go even though he was happy we were home. We would book her again in a second and hope to have her watch Hank anytime we need someone. ?”
About: Hi! I’m your friendly neighborhood dog walker—basically a golden retriever in human form. I love big dogs, small dogs, floofy dogs, scruffy dogs. Zoomies? Yes. Couch potatoes? Also yes. Sassy? Bring it. Shy? I speak fluent gentle baby talk. I enjoy long walks on the beach…and short ones to the fire hydrant. I’ve proudly owned 2 boxers and 2 poodle mixes, so trust me—I’ve seen it all. Muddy paws? No problem. Flying fur? Part of the outfit. Drool? Nature’s moisturizer. I literally cannot pass a dog without asking, “Can I pet your dog?” It’s a compulsion. Like breathing, but fuzzier. Bottom line: your pup’s in loving, experienced, slightly obsessed hands. Can’t wait to meet all the four-legged goofballs! I’m currently working part time as a bartender and part time from home so my schedule is very flexible. I am home most mornings and evenings. I have an apartment complex with a dog park in it. There are also lots of trails around me. I love going on walks, playing fetch and cuddling with all the fur babies.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hawk Cove
Staci was fantastic with Sky. She stayed at our house the whole time and took great care of her — walks, feeding, playtime, all of it. Sky and Staci’s dog Oliver hit it off right away, which was a nice bonus. Staci also collected our mail, watered the lawn, and got the trash out for pickup. We came home to a spotless house and a plate of homemade chocolate brownies waiting for us. 🙂 We’d welcome Staci back anytime, and we recommend her without hesitation.
Staci is a wonderful house and dog sitter! Highly recommend! She is conscientious and a good communicator. Since she works remote, she is with my pets most of the day - which gives me peace of mind. She has sat for me for weeks at a time while I was traveling overseas, and I didn't have to worry at all about my dogs or my home. She is great about staying in touch while I'm away. Thank you, Staci, for all your help! My dogs miss you and Oliver xo

FAQs for House Sitting - Hawk Cove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 866 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hawk Cove. 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 Hawk Cove 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 Hawk Cove 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 Hawk Cove 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.
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 .
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.
