“Jacob did an amazing job taking care of my frenchie. He kept me updated, sent pictures and videos and made me feel comfortable with the care he was providing. He left my house neat and tidy.”
About: Growing up I have always lived helping others and even helping animals. As a young kid, I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. Although my college plan is to become a special education teacher, I have always had a passion for animals. I really enjoy giving animals a voice and creating special bonds with them. Over the years my family has rescued over 8 animals including dogs and cats. I have been dog sitting for 3 years now for family friends and I am willing to do it for anyone in need. Animals have always left an impact on my life and I hope I do the same to them. I am not doing this for the money but to help many animals in need, as well as their owners. I really hope I am able to give endless love to you pet or pets. Thank you.
About: I have been a lifelong dog owner and have previous paid experience caring for pets. Through both personal and professional experience, I understand that every pet has its own unique personality, routine, and needs. I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and providing companionship to dogs, as well as ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while their owners are away. As a special education teacher, I am patient, responsible, dependable, and detail-oriented. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, administering basic medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their families. My availability is flexible. During the school year, I am available before and after school, evenings, weekends, holidays, and for overnight pet sitting. I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your pet care needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I believe in creating a calm, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I know the importance of regular communication, so I’ll provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own.
“We are so pleased with the experience we had with Chelsea. She was great about keeping us informed about how our pups were doing. She texted us and sent us pictures every day while we were out of town. We would definitely recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for someone to care for their pups.”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and currently have three dogs of my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I treat every dog as if they were part of my family. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease. I currently work rotating shifts, but I will work with you the best I can. I also dont mind last minute scheduling if needed . At this time, I'm not sure I would do pet sitting in my own home. I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pet in your home.
“Carolyn did a great job caring for our pups and home. Our place was left in great shape and she was more than willing to help clean up after our advanced senior dog who also receives medication. Thank you!!”
“Our experience with Ariel was terrific. We knew our pups were in great hands and well cared for. They got great walks every day, medicines were properly given, and communication was good. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire Ariel again for our boys. We recommend her to anyone look for a solid reliable sitter.”
“Gina is reliable, kind, thoughtful and caring. I love knowing she is with my pups, trusting they will be cared for like I would care for them. She often sends ck ins and pics of the pups to keep us updated on everything. Highly, highly, recommend Gina!!!”
About: With 21 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I began working with animals at 16 in a professional dog grooming salon, where I learned safe handling techniques, pet behavior, and how to help animals feel calm and comfortable. I've worked in multiple kennel environments and have experience with pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to shy cats and senior pets. I treat every pet like family, keeping them safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routines. You can count on me to provide attentive, trustworthy care and peace of mind while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone for more than 2–3 hours. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I provide attentive, reliable care in both my home and yours, always focusing on your pet's comfort, safety, and routine. Whether boarding or providing drop in visits, I maintain regular feedings, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, and plenty of affection. I closely monitor each pet's well being, follow all care instructions, and provide updates for your peace of mind. My home is clean, pet friendly, and stocked with most essentials. Just bring your pup, their food, leash, and collar, and I'll take care of the rest!
“Ryan was very kind and sweet to my two boys. They were happy when I got home and the house was as I left it. He was super thorough in gathering the information he needed to care for the boys during our meet and greet. Highly recommend!”
“Stacy went beyond my expectations. She communicated daily and sent pictures and videos. She wrote down Mia's daily routine. Stacy left my home perfect. I know Mia was very well cared for. I would highly recommend Tracy.”
“Another great visit. Jacqueline is always communicative and available, which gives me so much peace. We looked forward for next weeks sitting as well.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Long Neck
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 289 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Long Neck. 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 Long Neck 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 Long Neck 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 Long Neck 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Long Neck. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
