About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including guinea pigs, frogs, dogs, cats, and rabbits. Throughout my life, I’ve developed a strong connection with animals specifically dogs and cats. I’ve grown a genuine passion for understanding their unique personalities and needs. I take pride in my reliable, compassionate care and enjoy learning what makes each animal individual and special. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work full time, however I typically start each day around 11am or noon and finishing around 8pm, which allows me to dedicate mornings, evenings, and flexible time throughout the week to pet care. I’m able to provide consistent feeding, walks or check ins, and attention before and after my shifts, and I can adjust my schedule on fluctuating days to meet the pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’m experienced with walking dogs as needed, safely crating pets when required, and if needed supervising them during outdoor time. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication if needed, and any specific preferences or routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while keeping the home clean and secure so both the pets and owners feel comfortable!

“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with our Gabby! She was so patient and understanding with Gabby’s anxiety, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she looks after and goes the extra mile to make them feel safe and comfortable. Gabby was very well taken care of, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would definitely use Elizabeth again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★”

“Lauren was excellent - she ended up giving our dog two sets of pills for a recent paw injury and was extra accommodating about our extra long flight delay. She was communicative and sent us lots of photos/updates of our lady. She even fed my backyard squirrels :) thank you, Lauren!!”
“Mary is very responsive and professional. She has such a sweet demeanor with our big Newfoundlands. They adore her. We look forward to welcoming, Mary back for more visits. Kudos to Mary!!!”


“Kevan was really great with our boy Ruckus, who can sometimes be a handful! Kevon was very communicative and kept us updated on everything. He was also able to sit for us last minute and responded quickly to our request. We've already booked him again for an upcoming trip. It's great to know our fur baby is in good hands!”

“Richard went above and beyond to ensure that our first dog sitting experience was a safe and enjoyable one for our young " doodle"- DOOLEY. He also kept us appraised of Dooley's status during the extended stay, giving us piece of mind We recommend Richard for his pet services and anticipate utilizing hiim again for care of our pets.”

“Adriana was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and in home pet sitting. Adriana gave us regular updates and photos of Khloe. We are so thankful for the great care Khloe received while we were away, and Adriana also kept our home exceptionally clean!”

“Carla was very sweet to our pups and is a very sweet person in general. She came and left just when she said she would and sent us updates and was very responsive when we messaged and checked in. One of our pups had an accident in their bed and she washed and dried their blankets! Our home was left like she was never even here. We’d happily book with Carla again! Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies Carla!”

About: I was born and raised to love dogs. I grew up in a household that bred Rottweilers and I could not be anymore grateful for the lessons of love and care for animals it instilled in me. I began caring for other's pets when I was in high school. Over a decade later I have had experience in short and long-term overnight care/house sitting, day-visits, walks, and some medication administration for pets of all ages and sizes. I have a special spot in my heart for senior pets and giving them the extra love and care they deserve. I know that every home and pet has unique needs and ways to be taken care of. I believe with clear communication I am able to approach each new pet care situation with confidence that we can both feel when you leave your loved ones in my care! I am currently just working part time and have lots of flexibility/weekend availability. I love to take early morning walks with dogs, especially given that it's summer I keep the heat in mind and have availability during the cooler hours. I have reliable transportation to come to your home! I am a very organized and clean person so if I am welcomed into your home I assure it will be treated with respect and care. For walks I believe I am very observant and aware of my surroundings, ensuring safety for both myself and your pet(s).

FAQs for House Sitting - Macedon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 542 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Macedon. 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 Macedon 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 Macedon 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 Macedon 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.
