House Sitting in Lake Como

“Cailin was a wonderful sitter. We were on vacation and wanted to do a day trip and couldn’t take our dog. This was our first time using Rover so of course we were nervous. She came out to meet us the week before our day trip & we liked her immediately. While we were gone, she texted us every couple of hours to let us know everything was good. we were a half an hour late getting home and she was fine with that. Very flexible .Can’t say enough about how great she was with our dog I would definitely use her again!”

“Christiana was so personable and took such great care of our pups and our home while my husband and I had a night away! Her experience with animals was important as I’ve got a dog with diabetes and takes daily injections as well as other meds. I’ll definitely hire her again in the future if I need a dog sitter! She was amazing!”

About: Growing up we had 17 golden retrievers. 14 of them were puppies. I now have two of my own and love to be around them. My family has been involved in training. I also worked at 2 different animal hospitals where I was a kennel technician. I have 2 daughters . Currently I am going backed to school to become a dog trainer. I am always available and try to accommodate in any way I can. I appreciate hanging out with animals and doing everything I can for them. I am CPR certified for dogs. Me and my children enjoy animals so if we aren’t doing school work, or helping other animals I am outside training or practicing with my dogs. I have a fenced in yard so my dogs and I are always outside playing. They love to play with the toys and run. We practice training a lot of the time.

“We could not be happier with the house sitting and pet sitting Mari provided for almost a week over the Christmas holiday. She was very communicative , caring, and just took the best care of our babies. We could not be more pleased and o forward to having Marie help next chance!”

About: I have over 6 years experience of house/pet sitting(from another website) caring for a variety of animals, fish, dogs, birds, cats, goats, a donkey, a llama and chickens. I am comfortable and confident with almost all domestic animals. I am a retired Registered Nurse with over 30 years experience in various fields of medicine. I am now a full time house and pet sitter travelling around(by car) the continental US and Canada caring for other's beloved fur family. My past nursing experience plus my 6 years of house/pet sitting has made me highly observant and attentive to the smallest details. While I am calm and easygoing I am also excellent in challenging and emergency situations being both independent and self reliant. I love dogs and cats but do not have any of my own due to my gypsy like lifestyle. I have traveled a fair bit in my life having a curious mind and a zest for learning and experiencing new things. I am very neat and clean.....so your home will be just as you left it while respecting your property.

“Bethany was absolutely fabulous with our pups over the long weekend. She kept up up to date everyday. We got pictures and felt fully comfortable knowing our pups were well cared for. It's nice when you come home and your pups are calm and happy. Thank you so much!”

“Pete did an excellent job with our fur babies while we were away! Even our bashful cat Petunia succumbed to his charms. Pete sent us photos multiple times while we were gone. It was reassuring to see our fur-kids doing well. The house was well maintained upon our return. We will be reaching out again to book with Pete.”

About: Hi! I’m your pet’s new favorite human 🐾 I treat every fur baby like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles (if they’re into that!). I’m super patient, reliable, and great at picking up on each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also have a background in childcare, working in multiple child care settings and holding a CDA (Child Development Associate), so I’m naturally nurturing, attentive, and big on routines and safety. Whether it’s a shy cat or an energetic pup, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine! I only work about 3 days a week from 9–5, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give pets the attention they deserve. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean space with a fenced yard for playtime, plus lots of love and attention. I also have a friendly 3-year-old Shih Tzu who loves other animals and makes a great companion. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine

About: I have over 200 hours of dog sitting experience, I also have experience with cats,basic reptiles, and small rodents. I specialize in elderly dogs with special needs and I am also good with extensive instructions. I have a part time job from 4 to 9 during the week other than that I’m free and very flexible. I also am able to substitute teach but if your animal is unable to be alone for a while I can clear my schedule. I’m very good at following directions set for me especially dogs that need medications or specific feeding requirements, if needed I can be active with playtime or walks.

“Diane is absolutely amazing! Diane stayed in my home and sat for my 2 dogs. Diane was absolutely wonderful. She was very communicative and sent me pictures of my babies. I would definitely use Diane again for any sitting needs!”

“I couldn't be more pleased with the great job Sam did taking care of my cats for 2 weeks. He went above and beyond what was expected of him to make my cats feel loved and cared for. I highly recommend him and will definitely be hiring him again in the future next time I need a sitter”

“I’d leave 10 stars out of 5 if I could! Leanne was fantastic. I was really nervous to leave my senior dog with anyone. I never have, other than a family member. She provided excellent communication and pictures every few hours. I could tell from the pictures that Sugar was happy and not stressed, which was huge. I’m happy to have found her and will definitely use her again to come stay in our home to watch Sugar. Highly recommended, except for when I need her, I get first dibs! :D”

“Taylor was great and we’d definitely have her again. She sent updates with pictures and communicated well. We felt our pup and home were well cared for while we were away.”

About: I’ve had dogs for my entire life both big and small. I’ve also volunteered at the SAFE dog shelter for about 6 months. I absolutely love all animals but especially dogs! I work full time so I’m looking to walk/house sit on night and weekends. I could use my lunch break at work to tend to the dogs needs. I’m extremely fun and playful so I would just follow your wishes of how you wanted your dog to be taken care of. I also enjoy taking walks.

About: I've taken care of dogs since my childhood (45 years!) and cats over the last 10 years. I'm a US Army veteran and served as a Team Leader in the Army Bomb Squad (EOD). I'm a very responsible person that handles unexpected, stressful situations very well. Today, I'm a mild-mannered IT Manager that works remotely and is close to retirement. Since my time is very flexible and I can work anywhere I figured I would make myself available to house-sit. I'm available to stay at your home all night and most of the day, so I'll be there to let the dogs out and play during breaks in the day. Since my offered service is house-sitting, I can perform whatever your pet is used to so that there is as little disruption as possible. I'm an animal lover, so good for them, good for me! :)

About: I have over 15 years experience caring for dogs, including senior pets, those with diabetes, visually impaired , and high-energy breeds. Medium to Large Dogs. I am fairly new to Rover and ready to get started. Let me have fun with your pet buddies I am currently enjoying my retired life (LEO retiree). Therefore, I am home most of the time. I will keep your dog week days, weekends, and holidays. Currently work 8-20 hrs a week(1-3 days) to have something to do but I am 5 mins from home. Home for hr lunch on days working. Never leave dog home alone for more than 4 hrs if working. Also, have family member home during most days. I have a huge fenced in yard and visit the local dog park often. I have a three year old high energy playful dog and one patience laid back dog (7 yrs old). Boarding, daycare, drop ins, and walks. If your dog “shy” and not happy with high energy dogs, he/she can hangout with Laid Back “Layla”. If he/she wants high energy fun, he can hangout with Acer. All dogs are friendly and love other dogs.

About: With a lifelong dedication to animal care, I bring both genuine passion and hands on experience to every pet I look after. I specialize in caring for pets with special requirements, including administering oral medications, managing ongoing health conditions, and providing the extra attentiveness that some animals need to truly thrive. Some personal information about myself: My household includes 2 dogs, 2 cats, chickens, and goats. I’m very comfortable with animals of all kinds and needs. Professional experience: My background is in elderly hospice care. It has been foundational to how I work. It instilled in me a disciplined, attentive approach to caregiving. Showing up consistently, reading subtle cues, and maintaining a calm presence aren't just nice to have, they're essential. I apply that same standard of care to every animal entrusted to me. Schedule: Currently studying at Daytona State College, my schedule is built around flexibility. That means no rushed visits and no divided attention. Your pet will receive consistent, reliable care that fits seamlessly around their routine. When staying in your home, I treat every pet as my own. Here's what that looks like day to day: 🦴 Feeding & Medication Schedules and instructions followed precisely, every time. 🦮 Dog Walks Multiple walks throughout the day based on your dog's needs. 🐈 Cat Care Litter boxes kept clean and routines maintained. 👀 Attentive Observation I monitor behavior and body language closely, catching early signs of discomfort, anxiety, or anything out of the ordinary.

“Valery is one of the best sitters I have used on this platform. She took care of our two dogs when we were gone and did a great job taking care of one of our dogs who needs extra attention and keeping us updated.”
