“Grace was great, she kept us updated on our furry kid and sent pictures of a happy and stimulated dog. House was super clean when we returned home. Would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future.”
About: I have had a dog since I was a baby, and I have lots of experience taking care of lots of different breeds. I also work with training dogs since I was little and I’m helping out family train their new pups. I have done neighborhood dog walks in the past, along with house/pet sitting. Effective August 19-December 18th I will be unavailable M/W/F: not available 9:30-1:15 Tu/Thur: not available 1:00-3:50 Rover doesn’t allowed specific schedules so I’m putting this here! As a college student I’m looking for good exercise/break, and to have a furry friend along the way makes it better for me. I am doing this part time to help out others who may have a busy schedule! Whenever walking a dog I always make sure that I’m keeping them safe and on a fun path. I always stick to main areas/neighborhoods and of course, never take them off leash. I make sure when I need to pull on the leash I’m never dragging the dog, just a little tug to indicate we need to move forward. I work with the heel tactic if the dog loves to constantly pull, and if you do not want me to apply that then please inform me not to. I will NOT walk you dog if you use bungee leashes as those are dangerous for possible dog lunging and not being able to keep control over the animal whether it is the dogs fault or something else.
“Bella did a great job with our two older dogs. One can be hard to crack his shell, and they were buddies by the end of their time. She sent plenty of pictures and is a good communicator. She left our house clean. All of it was very much appreciated!”
“Kyra followed my instructions and was really good with my dogs. She left my house in fantastic shape and was communicative. If I need my dogs to be watched overnight I would definitely book her again.”
“Maia was wonderful. She took care of 2 dogs with very different needs and a batch of chickens without missing a beat. She left the house tidy and the dogs happy. Maia communicated promptly and well . We will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve worked with all kinds of animals my entire life. I also volunteer with animal shelters as much as possible I own three kitties at home I used to own a dog unfortunately I let animals be warm up to me as long as it takes them so I don’t rush.

About: I’ve taken care of puppies and kittens for a while, more recent for kittens. I grew up with so many dogs since I was young. I’m currently looking for a fulltime job, but for the time being my schedule is very clear to take care of your animals if that changes I’ll let you know! I do live in an apartment complex but I live on the bottom floor and have access to grass right outside my patio. If your dog is okay with a leash there will be no problem to take them potty. I do own a cat box inside my home as well.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have two dogs, along with past experience caring for cats.

I enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to make time in my schedule to care for your pets. I’m available in the evenings and often enjoy starting my mornings early.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, especially dogs, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I’ve helped raise and train puppies, so I’m comfortable with basic training, routines, and lots of patience during those early stages. Back home, my family has a Great Pyrenees, a pit bull mix, and a beagle mix, which has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely love being around animals. Since I’m away at college and can’t have my own pet, I put that energy into giving every dog I watch as much attention, care, and affection as possible. I’m reliable, attentive, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I’m a full-time student-athlete on the swim team, but I’m currently in my off-season. Most of my practices are early in the morning, which leaves me with flexible free time throughout the day. I’m very used to managing a busy schedule, so I’m reliable and happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I like to follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible, so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free. If you provide a list of instructions or preferences, I will stick to them and keep you updated along the way. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet elsewhere, I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to create a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away, and to keep you informed with updates so you have peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart is my background working in a veterinary hospital, which gives me hands-on experience recognizing health concerns, administering medications, and caring for animals with different needs.

Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine.

I make sure every animal in my care gets plenty of attention, structure, and consistency. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kitzmiller
Karina has been amazing with both my puppy and my cat. She’s incredibly communicative, reliable, and thoughtful. You can tell she genuinely cares and she’s always thinking of even the little things. I always feel at ease knowing my pets are in such good hands. I can’t recommend her enough!
Bella was amazing caring for our crazy younger GSP and watching our home. :-) She kept our pup occupied both physically and mentally and sent daily updates while I was away, which helped ease any anxiety about leaving her for a week! She even watered my plants and cleaned the house prior to leaving!! She is thoughtful and kind and we are thankful to have met her and would 100% use her again.
Sara is amazing! She takes her sitting seriously and loves my cats like her own. I’ve booked with her for both drop-in and overnights. She’s on-time, her communication is fantastic and I feel confident in leaving my cats and home in her meticulous care. I’m sure my cats love her as they wind around her legs immediately every time she comes over. Book with Sara today, you and your cats will not regret it!
Emma was amazing! Our dog Ivy usually doesn't do well with most people. We were hoping that someone would be able to stay with her and keep her from getting too stressed. Emma went above and beyond! In the couple hours we were gone, Ivy went from anxiously barking at Emma to calmly doing tricks and getting belly rubs. Emma is very calm, patient, and chill, and we highly recommend her! If and when we need another sitter, we will absolutely be choosing Emma!

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 Kitzmiller 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 Kitzmiller 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 Kitzmiller 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.
