“We all love Curtis and highly recommend! He was so wonderful with our little fur babies. He so tentative with them and his communication helped keep us at ease. We WILL be using him much more in the future, not just for our long trips but also for our day trips too. Thank you again Curtis for caring for Happy and Leia like they were your own. See you again soon!”
“Kristina is an amazing dog sitter! She asked lots of questions to get to know our dog, she is clearly an animal lover and we felt comfortable knowing that our dog was being watched by a responsible and caring person. Definitely will have her dog sit for us again!”
“Mia was fantastic with my pups!! She took great care of them and provided me with updates throughout the day with pictures!! She even brought in a plethora of VERY heavy packages and placed them inside which was super kind!! 10/10 would rebook for the future!! ☺️”
About: I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, growing up with cats and dogs and currently sharing my home with two cats and a Shiba Inu. I provide reliable care tailored to your pet's needs, whether that means active play, daily walks, fresh food and water, or simply keeping them company.I am comfortable with routine care and special needs, including scooping litter boxes, administering oral medications (pills or liquids), and keeping pets safe and at ease. My own pets are fully vaccinated and kept up to date on monthly preventative care. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love, safety, and respect I give my own, helping them feel relaxed while you are away. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I work fully remote, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes it easy to align pet care with your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and consistent. My own pets are part of my everyday rhythm, I start each morning by walking my dog, giving her medication, and refreshing her water and wet food. My cats also get their daily wet food as part of their diet, along with plenty of attention and enrichment. Because caring for my pets is already a natural part of my day, fitting in care for your cat feels seamless. I make time for quality interaction, calm companionship, and attentive check‑ins, and I’ll ensure your pet receives the same level of care and presence while you’re away. Keeping animals happy and well‑cared‑for is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s built into my daily routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s. At home, I maintain a secure space by removing hazards like toxic plants or debris and keeping a consistent routine for feeding, fresh water, medication, and enrichment. In a client’s home, I focus on honoring their specific rules and preferences, starting with a thorough meet‑and‑greet, reviewing their checklist, confirming access details, and following feeding or medication schedules exactly as instructed. In both settings, I create a predictable, comfortable atmosphere and provide attentive, reliable care so pets feel safe, understood, and at ease while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been watching dogs and cats since I was 10. I have a 5 year old Australian Shepard that I got when he was 9 weeks old. I work second shift most weekends but I’m free to walk your pups anytime in the morning. I am able to watch your pups during the week as those are my days off usually I will always go at your animals speed. I have a very friendly Aussie who loves making new friends as well as I do have a fenced in yard for the doggos to run around
“Haylee was wonderful throughout the stay. She was very responsive and sent pictures of my pup which made my day. Haylee was also very flexible which helped tremendously since we are here on vacation and I didn’t know anyone else that could help. I highly recommend her!”
“Kamora did such a wonderful job pet sitting my 5 fur babies when I had to go out of town! She was attentive and had great communication, providing photos and videos! I would definitely book her again!”
“Vanessa was absolutely amazing with my 8 month old puppy! 💖 She took such great care of her and gave her so much love, attention, and company while my whole family was out at the theme park for the day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my puppy was happy, comfortable, and in such caring hands. 🐶🥰 I’m so grateful we found Vanessa and would absolutely book her again the next time we’re in the Orlando area. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby! 💕🐾”
About: I have been a veterinary technician for 3+ years and counting. We have had pets in our home since I can remember. I have grown up with the love and loyalty that our pets provide and is something that I cherish. I started pet sitting for coworkers and clients for about 2 years now. I love helping fellow pet owners with caring for their pets in a time of need. My favorite thing is gaining trust from pet owners and ensuring that owners have peace of mind when it comes to being away from their pets. Having the medical background that I do also helps to ensure that your senior babies are being taken care of properly. Pets are family. I am currently a full time veterinary technician and work all days (8am-6pm) except Tuesdays, every other Saturdays (only from 8am- 12pm), and Sundays. With my full time schedule, I make sure that a pets needs come first. I will only pet sit for pets that I can guarantee my utmost care. I house sit a lot as well so this is helpful with my full time job. I tend to pet sit close to my job so if I have to leave in the middle of the day to take a dog out, I definitely can. I make sure to follow all written or printed instructions to a T. I also make sure to stay in close contact with owners (not too close to ruin your vacation) to ensure that they are still at peace of mind throughout their time away. I also love to send photos of their pets while they’re gone so they’re not missing out on too much :)
“This is our 6th time to use Evan. She really is great with our boys.. Can not say enough good things about Evan and the care she gives our pups. Always easy to communicate with, which is a plus since we do a lot of International travel and being on different time zones.. She sends pictures along with updates of our boys so we can see them and know what they are doing .. when we are so missing them with us being away.. ☺ 5 star all the way !!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong work ethic and adaptability, allowing me to provide exceptional care tailored to each pet's needs. I have specialized skills in training puppies and providing attentive care for senior pets, ensuring they receive the best possible attention and love. I’ve been taking care of dogs for 2 yrs now but I don’t own any because I work during the week and I don’t like to have the pets on a crate all day. I work Monday- Friday. scheduled is 8-5 every day. I’m available after 5pm during the week and Saturday and Sundays I have full day availability! I have a fenced yard and also I have a big park right behind my apartment complex , super beautiful. I can crate your dog if needed.
“Brenda stayed with my German Shepherd and 18 year old cat over the weekend and it went better than I could have expected. My German shepherd, Zeus, can be very picky and after a failed attempt at a different sitter I wasn’t sure we’d find a good fit. Zeus took to Brenda with ease and put any worries that I had to rest so I could have a relaxing weekend and he could have a lot of fun. I think he was a little sad that I came home and not his new buddy! She also was able to take care of both Zeus and my cat’s medical needs. Definitely couldn’t recommend her more, Zeus definitely looks forward to her staying with him again.”
“Mekenzie is wonderful! She always takes great care of our home and our pups. She sends frequent updates and pictures and always asks questions if needed. I would highly recommend her for taking care of your fur babies and/or housesitting needs!”
“Karla was absolutely wonderful with my two Golden Retrievers, Shiloh and Snow. She was kind, responsible, communicative, and clearly cared for them as if they were her own. Throughout my trip, I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all care instructions, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. I returned home to two very well-cared-for and content dogs. I highly recommend Karla and will gladly book with her again!”

“Shey and Mason were fantastic with our elderly and very high needs dog. They got back to me very quickly every time I texted! They took care of everything I asked them to do and I didn’t need to worry about anything while we were on vacation. Both were fantastic! Will definitely use them again!”

Kayla is nothing short of an angel. We booked very last minute but she was very accomodating. She was very nurturing with our three pets and gave each one special attention. She kept us updated multiple times each day with pics, videos and text. If you are looking for someone to love your babies as much as you do then Kayla is a must.

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 Lake Hamilton 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 Lake Hamilton 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 Lake Hamilton 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.
