“Alex stayed with our pups again, but this time for a whole week. When I returned, the pups were healthy and the house looked great. Alex even washed the sheets! Great communication, photo updates, and a relaxed vibe. Thanks, Alex!!”

“Brynn was an amazing sitter! They were kind and responsive. Our dog enjoyed time in nature and came back to us tired and happy from a great weekend! Brynn is definitely a responsible sitter to use.”

“Ash has been sitting for our two high-energy and high-maintenance hounds for a while now. They get a great mix of fun, excercise, company and cuddles, with training reinforcement as needed. Especially if you need someone to stay overnight(s) with your pup, Ash is a great sitter and trainer- highly recommended!”

“Dorjee provided one night of house sitting to care for my elderly cat and made herself available for periods of time throughout both days to spend time with her. Dorjee made sure food was eaten and consulted with me to figure out how to best give my cat her medication when she initially refused to take it. She clearly loves animals and taking care of them is a vocation.”


About: I have 30 years experience with puppies through seniors - healthy through special needs. Training for puppies on leash walks through walking seniors in a stroller. My dogs have ranged from disabled chihuahuas, big German shepherds, and lively beagle mixes. I excel at bonding and building trust with pets and look to have a unique connection with each one. For doggy daycare and boarding: Right now, I dont own any dogs. Your dogs would be the only dogs in my home. When there are dogs in my home, my cats are safely locked away in the basement with their food, toys, water, and playhouses. There will be no interaction. I am currently working part time (remotely) and fully available to care for your pets, play with them, give them all the attention, care, and love they deserve! Morning, afternoon, evening, late night care is well within my timeframe. Caring for your dog: I will only walk on leash - no unleashed care unless within a fully fenced backyard. If you are training your dog, I will be able to continue with training. I am able to administer medication if needed. If your dog has any allergies or requires special food, please be sure to let me know. Happy to perform brushing or baths if needed. Pets, hugs, playtime, or lounging and relaxing - whatever their preference and makes them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. As for caring for your cats, I request a full schedule of their feeding times, and recommendations as to what they enjoy playing with. If they like to be brushed, please note. If they are skittish or love attention from people, please let me know so I can provide them with a level of care that will allow them to feel safe.

About: I'm a lover of play, exploration, rest, and relationship building -- with human and non-human creatures alike! I have 15+ years of experience tending to dogs of all sizes and temperaments, enjoy long walks as much as they do, and particularly enjoy sending photo updates to the families I sit for. I've been told I "play with dogs like they're [my] siblings" and that I'm both "a black cat and a golden retriever in spirit" -- all this to say, I get animals, and they get me. :) I'm currently working in a university counseling center, supporting students of all ages through the transitions of their lives. This is a typical 9-5 job (with one remote day/week coming Spring 2027) -- so I'd pair well with animals that can do okay on their own during work hours. I like to learn an animal's routines and do my best to replicate them during a sit, so as not to cause any anxious critter more stress. I have a good track record for reading an animal's body language and know when to give cuddles, when to give space, and when to know something's "off" that needs more serious attention.
“Ace did a fantastic job with our busy puppy! She kept us updated and sent many pictures of our happy dog. The house was left in great condition! We would certainly use Ace again any time and recommend her 100#. Thank you, Ace for a great job. You put our minds at ease.”

“Debbie was absolutely incredible with my 2.5 year old pit mix Brooks. He took to them almost instantly at the meet and greet, and I felt 100% comfortable with them staying at my house and looking after him. Debbie kept me updated with pictures and texts and took amazing care of him. Having somebody stay in your house and look after your pet is always a little daunting, but after chatting with Debbie and her partner for 20 minutes while they got to know Brooks I had no hesitation about having Debbie stay and care for him. Debbie and her partner are really awesome people and clearly both love — and are good with — animals. Debbie will be my go-to first choice for any dog sitting I need doing in the future, without a doubt.”


“Mara stayed at our condo for 5 days while we traveled to visit family. She did a great job with our senior golden and our golden puppy…and our cat. She had great communication with us and gave our dogs medications/supplements as requested. Our puppy was a handful as he has some seasonal allergies and anxiety, but she did great. Thanks Mara.”

“Katelyn and her girls took wonderful care of Pierogi! Lots of photos, snuggles, and activity time. Will absolutely be booking her again for our next trip in August!”

About: Calm, quiet environment with a sitter who craves doggy time. My 12 year old black lab recently lost her fight with cancer. Not ready to bring home a new dog, but would love to care for your precious fur babies while you are away. I offer patience and attention to your canine's needs. I'm a human nurse but also experienced with dogs special needs such as insulin administration. I work Monday-Friday, Home on weekends. No young children. Available for walks, dog Parks (dog park with your approval), or hanging out in the yard secured on a 50 foot lead. Dogs are not left outside unattended. You're welcome to bring your pets favorite toy for us to use during their stay. Will try to keep them on your schedule for easy transition from home to sitter. I speak to animals as of they can respond. Days are better with happy pets! Friday drop-off at 5:30 pm. Sunday pick-up by 8:00pm. I have a large yard and a spacious house. Spend weekend around the house doing small projects, crafting or cleaning. It's a quiet, stress free household with a very flexible schedule. While I miss my own pet I'm looking to offer a love-centered environment similar to children visiting their favorite Aunties house.
About: I've had cats and dogs for most of my life. I'm experienced with caring for elder dogs and dogs with disabilities. People are often surprised by how comfortable their pets are with me, even pets who don't normally approach new people. I've studied cat body language to be able to better care for my two cats. My availability is consistently pretty open. I work part time with a flexible schedule, so I'll have ample time for pet sitting and dog walking. Your home is your sanctuary. I'm a quiet, respectful human who will happily care for your pets while respecting your home. I'm happy to play with your pets to keep them engaged while they wait for you to get back.
About: I’ve loved animals all my life and felt a deep connection with them. They have been some of my greatest teachers. I’ve provided loving care for cats, dogs, and rabbits throughout my adult years, and each one has been an important part of my world. I’ve cared for other people’s dogs, both taking them for walks and boarding them in my home while their people were away. I operated a private rabbit sanctuary for many years, giving rabbits a life where they could do the things they love—dig, groom one another, explore, forage, and simply be rabbits. I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats, as well as rabbits at all stages of life. I’m comfortable administering vitamins and medications to dogs, cats, and rabbits, including pills, liquids, and injections, and providing the extra care sick animals may need. I enjoy all aspects of caring for animals, from feeding and attending to their everyday needs to walking and hiking with dogs, playing with them, brushing them, and simply spending time together. I take the time to get to know each animal’s personality, routines, and individual needs. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, happy, and genuinely cared for while their person is away. Having hired caregivers for my own animals, I understand how important it is to truly trust the person caring for your beloved companion. I’m dependable and take commitments seriously. If I say I’ll be there for a certain amount of time or take your dog for a particular length of walk, I follow through. I want you to feel confident that your animal is receiving the same attentive, thoughtful care I would want for my own. Caring for your companions fits naturally into my daily routine. I have flexibility during the day and enjoy building my schedule around the animals I’m caring for. I’m able to make time for walks, feeding, play, companionship, and other care throughout the day, and I take commitments seriously. When I agree to care for an animal, I make sure they receive the time, attention, and consistency they need.rently working part time and am available to care for your companion animals I care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow their feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully, while also making time for play, companionship, walks, brushing, and plenty of attention. I take the time to get to know each animal and adapt my care to their individual personality and needs.
“Jessica was very attentive to our 13 yr old dog, making sure he was well fed and got his multiple medications. She kept us updated with videos and photos. He was happy to see us when we got home but I think he also missed Jessica!”

About: I’ve cared for pets since I was 9 years old- I find such joy in connecting with animals and getting to know their unique personalities! Various close connections in my life have and continue to rely on me to care for their pets when they are away or need extra support for their pets. I am excited to meet you and your animals and build relationships with people and fur babies of all kinds! I am prioritizing caring for pets, therefore have a very flexible schedule! Reach out to me and I am positive we can find a schedule and routine that works for us both :) I can crate your dog if necessary through experience with my own dogs, and I have experience administering medication safely when necessary. I am very diligent about ensuring the safety of pets to abide with whatever their owners are comfortable with.
“Alanna was spectacular. She was so kind and easy to work with. Best of all our dogs seemed really happy while we were away and had absolutely no indication of separation anxiety at all!”

Camron was an excelleng overnight sitter for my elderly cat. She kept me updated on his behavior,sent great pictures and videos, and was very considerate of our allergy while she stayed. Camron's excellent care and communication let me rest easy during the trip and her kindness and attention left my cat feeling calm and content.

Paul provided me with such peace of mind while I vacationed for a week. She took excellent overnight care of Bailey and kept him on his usual routine! She sent sweet photo updates which put me at ease. She was very respectful of the house and left the house in excellent condition! She is trustworthy, dependable, conscientious and warm and friendly. I would definitely book with her again! Thanks so much Paul!

Kayte is a stellar pet sitter and a lovely person! She visited us twice before we left to meet us and our dog and cat and to learn the ins and outs of our house. She sent us info and pics every day and we were reassured that all was well with our pets and our home. She left our home immaculate. Highly recommend Kayte.

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 Leeds 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 Leeds 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 Leeds 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!

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 .
