About: Hello, my name is Claudia . I have grown up all my life surrounded by pets, in my other house I have three puppies, five little birds and I also had a cat. I love being surrounded by animals, I am very patient with them, I love playing and walking with them. With my pets, I have always wanted them to socialize, understanding and accepting each other's character and respecting other people's pets in the same way. I have a full time job ,but I have available some hours in the mornings and on Fridays I am usually free almost all day so I would love to start my day surrounded by your adorable pets I will respect the limits and the rules that each pet has in their home and I will fill it with lots of love and games until they can return to it, so I will also make sure that it walks and collects its needs and feeds it at its established times
About: Hi! I’m Belle, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members as if they were my own. I have years of hands-on experience with pet sitting, pet care, and pet grooming, and I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’m committed to providing them with personalized, loving care while you’re away. I live in a house with plenty of land, giving dogs a safe and spacious environment to run, explore, and enjoy the outdoors (always with your preferences and safety in mind). My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re gone. I understand that every pet and family has unique needs, so I offer flexible scheduling whenever possible and am happy to discuss pricing if needed. I believe quality pet care should be accessible, and I’m always willing to work with owners to find something that fits their situation. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and communication while your pet is with me, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m happy to accommodate whatever schedule or routine works best for you and your pet. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight care, medication, or extra playtime and attention, I’m committed to providing reliable, personalized care that fits their needs and keeps them happy and comfortable. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and explore, with a large yard for supervised outdoor time. I always follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’ll provide walks, playtime, fresh food and water, clean up after them, administer medications if needed, and give them plenty of affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Margaret was a phenomenal communicator from the start, sent updates and photos several times a day which put our minds at ease and truly allowed us to enjoy our time away. The house was left spotless and our dogs happy! We hope to be able to book her again!”
“Taking care of our pets would have been enough, but they also took care of our plants, house, land and environment. And we even threw in a porcupine incident and a broken well for good measure. We came back to happy dogs and a better place than we left it -- exceeded all expectations”

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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon 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 Lisbon 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
