“First time app dog sitter here and I have to say…. I was TERRIFIED! However, Yesenia was so patient with me and Chac and came by for meet and greets multiple times to make us feel comfortable. She went above and beyond by communicating with me on her plans, as she had other visits while watching our pup, and was always on time. She provided photos and videos everyday, which was so helpful. Thank you, Yesenia!!!”

About: While I consider myself an avid horse lover, dogs and cats hold a big place in my heart as well, I make sure your baby gets the time and affection they need! I just recently left my full time job to pursue other areas in the veterinary field, so my time is able to accommodate your fur baby’s needs! Just recently coming from a Fear Free hospital, I incorporate those practices into how I handle pets and make sure they are loved and cared for!
“Lisa was an excellent dog sitter! She gave our dog tons of attention (he can be a little needy), sent us updates and pictures, and left the house in amazing condition! Just thrilled with her, in fact we've already rebooked her.”

About: Im very caring. Ive worked with autistic kids and I have a disabled cat that has wobbly cat syndrome.I have owned dogs in the past as well. I get off work at 4pm so I can stop buy and let the dog out for some rec time, to get some energetic out or if your leaving town I can pet sit at your house. Just as if I was at a guest house with car, and honorably. No visitors and keep things as they were, and give the animals extra love till there parents are back.
About: I've hand rereared kittens and puppies from 3 days old to house broken. I have had reptiles and all kinds of fuzzy animals, I haven't met anything I didn't love immediately. I can give medicine and keep routines while providing plenty of updates! I am a stay at home mom so I love getting a chance to step away and love on another kind of baby! I grew up raising animals, I love too many kinds to make up my mind, so let me love yours while you're away! I treat them like my own, I follow instructions and go based off of the animal. I run a sensory friendly home so I have lots of relaxing quiet corners!
“Lindsay did an excellent job taking care of my 2 cats and senior dog! She stayed at the house and everything worked out perfectly! She also sent pictures and updated me throughout our trip! Definitely recommend her for any pet needs!”

About: With over six years of hands-on experience working with dogs and their families, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. My goal is to provide compassionate, dependable care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners complete peace of mind. My experience includes caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those who need extra patience and attention. I believe in using positive, calm interactions to build trust and help every dog feel secure. Whether I’m taking your dog on a walk, providing drop-in visits, or caring for them while you’re away, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, exercise, feeding schedules, medications, and the little details that help pets feel at home. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. You can expect reliable communication, regular updates, photos, and the confidence that your pet is receiving attentive, loving care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time so I am available to work with and care for your pets. Also, available on weekends at any time of the day. I have Dog Training experience for 6 years so I know how to help work with your dog on enforcing positive basic commands and help prevent unwanted behavior including anxiety.
About: What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on experience with pets who need extra care and attention. I cared for my dog Maya, who was blind and diabetic, and I was responsible for administering her insulin and making sure she stayed safe, comfortable, and happy. I also cared for my soul dog Marcello, who developed anxiety in his later years and needed patience, consistency, and a calm environment. Both of my dogs were seniors who lived long, full lives (15 and 17), so I’m very comfortable with senior care, medication routines, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or health. I’ve also fostered multiple dogs over the years, including a puppy, so I’m familiar with different temperaments, energy levels, and basic training needs. Because I work from home, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I’ve had animals my entire life, and while I can’t have one of my own right now, caring for others’ pets truly brings me joy. I treat every animal like family and aim to create a calm, loving, and reliable environment while you’re away. I’m currently working remotely with a great deal of flexibility! I have no set meetings or calls that would conflict with a pet care schedule and can plan accordingly to accomodate your pets needs. I am unable to take your pets to my home due to lease regulations but can come watch your animals in the comfort of your own home. I would defer yo you as the pet owner to guide me on your pets personality, likes and dislikes and get to know them to ensure top notch care!
“Mary was great! She accepted to look after our puppy with such short notice. I think Chai really enjoyed her company and we will definitely rebook!”


“Kariah is the best! She took care of our baby Tug the whole weekend and was so great about sending pictures and updates. We were able to have a relaxing, much needed weekend without any worry knowing Kariah had Tug. She is fantastic, trustworthy, sweet and gentle. Thanks Kariah ❤❤❤”

“Hunter is amazing!! She did great with our fur babies and kept the house spotless! Very good at communication with us and sending the cutest pictures! Will definitely contact her again!”

About: I am a local college student with a focus on Early Childhood Education. Animals have been my safe space for as long as I can remember. I have two dogs and a bearded dragon that I consider my family. We love to go for walks and play outside in the sunshine! I am happy to assist with any of your pet needs as my schedule is very flexible! I am a full-time college student and currently only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday. Even with classes two days out of the week, my days/evenings are flexible. I have a fenced in yard and the dogs and I enjoy getting outside to sit in the sun and throw the ball. I also enjoy taking my bearded dragon outside for some natural basking. The dogs and I go for daily walks and we have our daily routine feedings. Baths are given every one to two weeks (depending on how stinky they are).
About: The reason I thought about being a pet sitter is I have been doing it for free for many years and why not sit for other people. I would like to take advantage of not being a full time pet owner and being a remote worker. This way I can focus on your family pets with no distractions and have an adventure at the same time. I am kind of new to Rover but have been a TrustedHousesitters and had 7-5 star reviews. I am in telephone sales, so can work on my own schedule. I am available to take care of your animal in your home, walk in the morning, and evening, feedings, and playtime. I do everything I can to make your pet feel comfortable and calm. I like to take them for a walk in the morning, late afternoon, and evening but will accommodate extra walks if needed, especially puppies. I want them to be happy and do what I can to do this.
“Graceann was wonderful. We were so thankful Graceann was able to stay with our puppy at our house during my husbands surgery. Our puppy loved having her and Graceann kept us updated with lots of photos which kept us happy. We will definitely use Graceann again. Loved her and so did Olive.”

“She was great!! I felt safe leavig our spoiled and moody Coco "the cat" with her. Coco was well taken care and loved her visits. She is honest and caring. Initially, I was scared to leave my empty home to an "stranger", but as soon as we met her I felt we where making the right decision to trust her. And we where right!! I will use her services again soon. Thank you Laura! ”

“Such a wonderful experience. Cheryl was friendly and professional. We felt extremely comfortable having her watch the house and taking care of our pets. Thank you again for everything.”

About: I truly feel that it is my duty to ensure the happiness and safety of each pet in my care. I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind each and every day that I spend with your pet. Because I am aware of how much pets contribute to our lives, it is my responsibility to ensure that your pet receives the same level of affection and care as they do at home. Even though I've been an animal lover all my life, my experience with dogs is much more extensive than that. Because I love dogs so much, making them as happy as possible is second nature to me. I've worked in cat and dog boarding and daycare for more than ten years. I've worked with hundreds of dogs and wouldn't change it for the world! I have loved and cared for all sizes of dogs, animals with special needs and pets in need of injections or oral medications also Seniors and declining. When acquiring a new customer, usually I like to arrange a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure we're all a good match, which is very important to me. Also, it gives us a chance to talk face-to-face about your expectations for your dog's care. Since you know your dog better than anyone else, it's always fun to talk to owners in person about what makes him or her tail wag. Finally. I adore getting to know new dogs and demonstrate I am a welcome presence and I am here to make friends. My everyday availability is twenty- four hours a day and seven days a week unless i update my calendar because i am completely booked with pets. In my home - No pets allowed on beds, fenced yard, non-smoking household, walks every few hours in owners home - walks every few hours, overnight boarding available

Here are just a sample: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer was a wonderful caretaker for our dog Kiki. This was the first time we used them and we couldn’t be happier. From the time we first met them and throughout the time Kiki was with them, the communication and care was top notch. We look forward to using them again!" - Stephanie L. (9/18/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer thank you so much for always taking care of my boy, Luke. Thank you, thank you! I am so happy I found you and always recommend you." - Dawn F (9/9/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer was great with our pets, Manning (dog) and Poe (cat). They were so responsive. They sent us pictures the entire time and cute little notes. I felt confident that they were being well cared for. Thank you so much." - Vicki H. (8/29/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer was fantastic. They took such loving care of our sweet girl (Penny) and we so appreciated the frequent photo check-ins. Thank you so much again for giving us such peace of mind while we were out of town!" - Caitlin C. (8/28/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Teddy had his first daycare experience and was there all day. He had a blast!

(6/23/24) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer is awesome! Took great care of our dog - he had a great time staying with them! They were communicative and sent us lots of pictures and updates of our pup (Milo) during his stay." - Victoria E. (12/18/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I felt really good about leaving my 11-year-old Benny boy with Jennifer after spending an hour visit with them prior to dropping him off. They are clearly dog (animal) people…… and took him into their home as one of theirs. What more could I ask for?" - Nancy B. (12/11/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Superb experience. I trust only a handful of people on Earth with my pets — I now fully trust Jennifer. They took care of my beloved, very elderly cats (Sushi & Libby) as if they were their own, allowing me to take one of my first real vacations in years. ❤️" - Barbara C. (10/24/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This was my first time leaving Winifred with someone other than family, so I was a bit nervous. But Jennifer was great. They sent me updates and pictures everyday so that really comforted me. Winnie had a wonderful time; she loved playing with the other dogs and felt like she was at home. Would definitely recommend. They will take great care of your fur baby." - Cristina P. (10/12/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Best Rover home we've experienced so far, and we've had a lot of good Rover experiences." - Natalie K. (8/21/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Excellent pet sitter. First time boarding a cat in my life and I am so thankful for Jennifer. I have a cat (Livie) who needed meds in her ears twice daily and oral meds daily mixed in food. She is a very skittish cat but they had no trouble in keeping her happy and calm. Will utilize them in again in the future!! Thank you so much your caring, kindness and compassion!!" - Allison W. (8/7/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jennifer is an awesome care taker. I left my Yorkie, Luke, with them for over two weeks, which was the first time in a year he was away from my family. He was so well cared for and loved. He learned so much when staying with them and their crew. It was his first learning experience being with other dogs, becoming part of the pack. They continuously kept me up to date with pictures and videos. I feel so grateful to have found them and I know Luke does too. We will continue to use their services in the future. Thank you both for your kindness! I feel incredibly lucky to have found you!" - Dawn F. (7/20/23) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "On first meeting Jennifer we knew she would look after our boy Lupin extremely well. She’s a very caring person who absolutely loves animals and Lupin took to her straight away which made us feel very confident that he would be happy in her care. Jennifer kept up his grooming routine (being a bearded collie he needs regular grooming) and while we were away she sent us regular updates including pictures which we very much appreciated and found very reassuring. Communication was very good before-hand and during our sit. On our return the house was spotless and Lupin was very happy. It was also lovely to meet Jennifer’s sweet little companion pup. She is the most adorable little dog who is as good as gold and was great company for Lupin. I would not hesitate to recommend Jennifer and her little companion. Thank you Jennifer - you're a 5* house sitter!" - Jeanette S. of Villefagnan, France (10/3/2022, via Trusted Housesitters) NOTE: Please refer to my previous "Hidden Gem Pet Care" Rover profile to read thru all of the 5-star reviews from our very happy 2022-2025 clients: https://www.rover.com/members/jason-s-hidden-gem-pet-care/ Pet care isn't squeezed into my day — it is my day. As a Luxury Travel Advisor, I work 100% remotely from home, which means I'm here with your furbaby around the clock. My own senior pup, Mandy 🐶 absolutely lights up when a new friend arrives — she loves, loves, loves other dogs and helps new guests settle in fast. Between my remote schedule and Mandy's welcoming personality, your pet gets consistent attention, companionship and routine from morning to night. Home is a gated condo community with beautifully landscaped grounds and plenty of green lawn space — a safe, secure setting for walks and sniff-and-explore time. Mandy 🐶 and I love taking our guests out to enjoy the grounds together — always on a secure harness for safety. Indoors, your furbaby becomes part of our everyday routine rather than being left to their own devices. Your pup is welcome on the couch, my queen bed, the numerous dog beds scattered around the house or wherever they're most comfortable. Feedings, medications, and playtime all happen on your pup's usual schedule.
About: I’va been around dogs and have provided dog sitting since I was a teenager. I am a mom to a black German shepherd that I adore. I am an energetic outdoors person who is constantly on the go.

I will make sure they get their energy out and provide them all the love and cuddles they need.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 572 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lessie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Lessie 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 Lessie 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 Lessie 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.
