“We are so lucky to have Renee as a sitter for our pups! She is just fantastic. Our 3 beagles just love when she comes to care for them. They are especially picky with people, but always seems just fine with her. She always follows our picky instructions to the letter, and leaves great updates and pictures when she is finished. Couldn’t be happier, thank you Renee, so very much!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, loving and caring for them all my life. I’ve handled a variety of breeds, providing everything from baths to nail trims. Each pet receives the care and attention they deserve. Caring for these pets is not just my passion, it’s also my full-time commitment. I’ll have plenty of time to give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve every single day I provide a safe and secure environment in my home, where I have a sweet, calm puppy and a shy kitten. I can also offer park outings if the client desires.

“Katy is extremely sweet and treats the puppers (all ages and sizes) like her own. She even did a meet and greet before starting since my little one is more anxious and way of meeting new people. Super flexible and responsible, couldn't ask for a better sitter/walker!”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with two wonderful dogs and I’ve raised my three cats since they were kittens, so I understand just how much care, patience, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. They’re part of my family, and I treat every animal I care for with that same level of love and respect. I also really enjoy spending time with pets and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or more laid back and cuddly, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide reliable, attentive care for your furry loved ones! I work full time remotely, so as long as I can bring my laptop I can work from anywhere with wifi. I take frequent breaks so I can play with and give your pets plenty of attention. I take careful attention to detail when it comes to care instructions and the things that make every pet unique. I’m very flexible and adaptive; always happy to accommodate their needs.
About: Ace Avelis (He/Him)- I've had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember, whether they're furry, scaly, or somewhere in between! Growing up with animals of all kinds taught me how to care for all kinds of personalities, from playful pups to laid back loungers. I truly love pets of every kind and would be honored to meet and care for your precious companion! As I work toward a degree in animal behavior, I also care for pets full-time in order to pursue my passion. I’m proud to offer high-quality, attentive care, including overnight stays and 24-hour companionship for pets who prefer not to be alone. I take the time to really get to know each pet and what makes them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether your furry friend is shy and needs a gentle approach, or bursting with energy and ready to play, I’m here for it! I always come prepared with the essentials like a backup leash, waste bags, and owner-approved treats. And if your pet loves to cuddle, my lap is always open for snuggles and companionship.
About: I have worked with animals at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where we house dogs, cats, and even birds, bunnies, or hamsters. I worked there for two years, and I have grown up with & been around both dogs and cats my whole life. I am available to care for your fur babies in the mornings, late afternoons, and evenings. I work Monday through Friday at a local law firm, so I have more flexibility for house sitting than dog walking or drop in visits during the day. I can provide treats, toys, and love to a client’s fur baby. I’m able to take dogs on walks and potty breaks, feed and administer medicine to both dogs and cats, crate a dog if needed, or snuggle up with a client’s fur baby.
About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and I love to meet new animals! My home currently has 2 corgis I raised from puppies and a senior cat. I would love to meet your furry friends and be a warm, comforting presence for them during their day. I currently work full-time from home with a flexible schedule, so daytime visits can be arranged. I have wider availability on evenings and weekends, which is typically my preference. I have a lot of patience and will work hard to build a bond of trust with your pet so they will feel more secure and comfortable with a stranger in their home. I will do my best to be respectful of your home and your personal space so everyone can be comfortable and have the best experience possible.
“This was my first time using “Rover” and chose Chelsie after reading her numerous positive reviews. This was a last minute decision and I had Chelsie meet with our daughter at our house since my wife and I were out of state. Chelsie was local and met with our daughter to meet our dogs. Chelsie came over to house for three separate days for 30 mins each day. Chelsie would upload photos and give daily progress reports and upload to the “Rover” for our review. This brought comfort to us and had complete confidence our dogs were in great hands. Chelsie went above and beyond.. We definitely will use Chelsie’s service again in the future. Highly recommend!!”

“Sydney did a great job considering she took over for another sitter who canceled last minute and I wasn't able to do a meet and greet with Sydney and show her some things. She was reliable, did her check ins and sent me pics. If I sent her a message, she responded quickly. I would use her again, if she is available.”

About: I am a caring and patient individual who loves taking care of pets as if they were my own. Life gets busy and owners need help, I believe all pets deserve to be taken care of by people who will love them like their owners do. My Pets: Two Cats (Feeding, Grooming, Handling, Litterbox, Medication) My family were the proud owners of two amazing sister cats for 16 years. My girls have since passed away in 2022 and 2025. I was fortunate enough to help take care of them from infancy, and then taking on a lot of responsibilities in their old age as I got older. Accumulating skills to take care of cats at any age. Being present while my cats aged and experienced various health issues, I learned many skills that I can apply in this new venture of becoming an animal sitter. I able to give medicine in pill or shot form. I am able to prepare speciality meals for an animals specific needs. I am also capable of performing basic cat chores. My Family's Pets: Black Lab Mix and Cat (Feeding, Grooming, Handling) I am an individual who likes to spend time with animals whenever I can. My grandmother lives very close to me, so I often go over to help her with her animals. She has a black lab mix and an energy filled boy cat. I frequently take her dog for walks and bathroom breaks, as well as feeding them both when needed. When my grandmother first got her lab, I was the main person training her and teaching her commands at a basic level. Being a patient individual, I am able to spend time with animals teaching them the basic behavioral traits. My Neighbor's Pets: Long Haired Labrador (Feeding, Handling) For the past few months, I have been taking care of my neighbor's 85 pound long-haired Labrador. This requires me to go over and take him out, feed him, and play with him. I also spend my time teaching him various commands he needs help with. This experience has technically been my first hired sitter job and I am looking for more as I love spending time with animals and giving them the love their owners do. I am currently in a Master's Program in the city. I have classes Mon-Wed. The rest of the week I am available at all hours. I love all pets like they are my own. Providing animals with a safe space to be themselves in their home and helping them in any way that I can.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, but what truly sets me apart is my experience training service dogs. During college, I trained three service dogs and continue supporting the program through annual ADI testing. I’m ADI-accredited, which means I have a strong foundation in dog behavior, obedience, and proper handling. Through this program, I’ve had the opportunity to work with dozens of dogs, many of whom lived in my home for extended periods of time. I’m very comfortable integrating dogs into a household setting, maintaining structure, and keeping routines consistent. From energetic puppies to more anxious or reactive dogs, I’ve seen just about every personality and behavior. I treat every dog as if they were my own; with patience, structure, love, and lots of attention. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and well being will always be my top priority. I work full-time as a fully remote software developer, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I can work from anywhere and take meetings on the go, I’m able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s mid day walks, playtime, or just extra supervision and companionship. I successfully raised a very high energy Golden Retriever puppy while starting this job, so I’m confident in my ability to balance work and attentive care. Providing structure, exercise, and enrichment throughout the day is something I’m very used to. Your dog won’t just be “fit into” my schedule, they’ll be part of my daily routine and cared for with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a very friendly year and half Golden Retriever named Beau who truly loves everyone he meets; dogs, people, and even other animals. He’s well socialized, playful, and gentle. If your dog enjoys companionship, I’m happy to arrange supervised playtime with Beau for extra stimulation and fun. I also have a backyard where they can safely run and play together. That said, I completely understand that not every dog wants a new friend and that’s perfectly okay! Beau can absolutely stay home to ensure your dog feels comfortable and stress free.

About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My whole life I have had dogs in the house, and the whole neighborhood knows to come to me when they need someone to watch their fur babies. I have a puppy of my own, he is a 7 month old long haired dachshund named pretzel. I am currently working part-time so I have lots of free time to fit pet care in. I am a former college athlete so I love to exercise, so I would love to spend my free time walking with some fur babies. I do not have a fence, but I do have a chain for the backyard. I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby company who absolutely adores other dogs. Since my yard is not fenced I like to take my dog on lots of walks to get his exercise and enrichment in.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am! If im needed earlier I can make it work as well. My schedule may be more open soon depending on jobs. Pet care come first for me so no need to worry about anything preventing me from that. I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,713 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Helmar. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.

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.
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.
