“Allison was fantastic! Our two cats were so loved and she took the most professional photos of them to send to us. Our house was immaculate as well. Allison also went above and beyond to help us prepare for a snowstorm that would start as we returned. Would book her again and again.”
“Cara took wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was communicative, sending regular updates that gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was well cared for and in great hands. I had such a positive experience that I’m already booking with her again. I recommend Cara to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Claire was wonderful with Macy! We loved the connection they made, and Claire’s maturity and thoughtfulness gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She paid attention to Macy’s routine, kept us updated, and went above and beyond by tidying up, washing the towels she used, and bringing in our mail and packages. It was clear she cared about Macy and our home. We would absolutely trust her to stay with Macy again and highly recommend her!”
“We had an amazing experience with Jenna! She was communicative throughout the stay, sending updates that really put us at ease. The dogs seemed happy, relaxed and well-loved! It is clear Jenna loves dogs and took care of ours like they were her own! She also house-sat for us and left everything spotless. We came home to a vacuumed, clean house and couldn’t have been happier. We’re so grateful for the care she showed our pups and our home. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future! Highly recommend.”
“Jen is the absolute best. When I travel I know I can relax and truly enjoy my trips because she is taking such great care of my pup. She has such a kind heart and cares about animals so much. She’s the only person I trust with my dog. So grateful to have her.”
“Laura was amazing with Riley! We had another sitter cancel on us last minute, but Laura stepped up and saved the day. She is very responsive, attentive, and gave us updates multiple times per day on how our girl was doing while we were away. We will definitely be using her for future vacations/trips…we know our pup will be in great hands! Thank you Laura 😌”
“Tiffany is fantastic! She communicated and provided pet pics daily offering continuous company for our pets, and assurance to us everything and everyone was well; and upon our return, the house was clean and pristine! We have full faith and confidence in her and offer our recommendation to anyone who may be in need of a sitter; although, she is in high demand!”
“Devon is great! Our two pups were happy and clicked with her. She stayed at our house and left it better than before. We were gone for a week and in that time received pics and communication was great. I felt very comfortable having her watch our babies. I would highly recommend Devon!”
“Natalee stayed in our home with our senior dog for 4 nights. She followed all the instructions we left for our girl’s care, the house was clean and everything in good shape and we received lots of updates, photos and videos. She really took the time to get to know Jenny so she’d be able to provide what she needed dependent on her (our dog’s) moods and needs. We will certainly use Natalee for any future trips and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Erin took really great care of our dog while we were on a long trip. She stayed with Ruby most of the time, played with her, took her on walks, and gave her treats! She also kept us informed with pictures and messages daily. When Ruby started getting into our shoes, she sent us photos of what was damaged and moved them somewhere Ruby couldn’t get to them. Having her watch Ruby took a huge weight off our shoulders being away from her. Highly recommend!”
“Marsha cared and entertained our exuberant 1 year 3 month old King Charles/ Irish Setter for 5 days. She noticed a stick he had chewed got caught in the roof of his mouth and removed it quickly. She took charge quickly and communicated about Murphy’ care daily and reassured us with short videos. Our cat also benefitted from her expert care. I heartily recommend Marsha for house sitting and am grateful she watched over Murphy and our cat Chase. Thank you, Marsha.”
“Kayla is amazing! My dogs and cat loved her! I could tell how happy they were in the photos she sent. She house sat for the weekend, and was exceptionally clean and considerate. My senior dog is diabetic and a picky eater, and she was able to get him to eat all his meals! With her background as a vet tech I completely trusted her with giving him is insulin. She’s so kind and took such good care of my pets!”
“Lauryn stayed at our house for ten days and took fantastic care of our two older dogs with multiple medication needs. She sent great photos that made us confident the dogs were well loved and the house looked amazing when we got back.”
“Ross has done an amazing job taking care of my pup. He has been very communicative which I really appreciated. It helped me to have a good trip without worrying about my pup. Thx Ross for taking care of Benny.”
“Evangeline took wonderful care of my 2 cats one of which has a daily medication. She was also very responsive and flexible with timing as we had to come home early due to weather.”
“Latasha was wonderful! She took excellent care of my baby and really went above and beyond. She was so great with my girl and it was so reassuring to leave my dog in her care. Book her now, you won't regret it.”

Alex is an excellent sitter. He communicated with us daily with photos and updates. We seemed to have a good rapport with him and felt very comfortable leaving Riley and our house under his care. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jani! She took incredible care of our sweet Maggie while we were out of town, and I am so grateful. Maggie had been quite sick with pneumonia in the weeks leading up to our trip, and although she had recovered, we were still watching closely for any returning symptoms. When Maggie suddenly started vomiting and stopped eating, Jani was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated every step of the way and didn’t hesitate to take Maggie to the emergency vet, where she received the care she needed and is thankfully doing much better. As you can imagine, being so far away when Maggie wasn’t feeling well was incredibly stressful. But knowing she was in Jani’s loving, capable hands gave me tremendous peace of mind until I could get home. Jani is not only responsible and attentive, but genuinely caring. She treated Maggie as if she were her own, and that means the world to me. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their furry family member!
A great person and a dog lover. We felt so comfortable leaving our house and dog in the care of Becky. Gus can be a lot clingy, and she sent pictures of all his attempts to sit in her lap and receive extra attention. The house was clean, nothing was amiss. I would definitely work with her again, and so would Gus!
Kayla was absolutely amazing with my two boys, Milo and Sammy! From the beginning, she made me feel completely comfortable and gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She was loving, attentive, dependable, and kept me updated throughout their time with her. One of my dogs takes medication and requires a little extra attention, and Kayla handled everything perfectly. She even kept a close eye on him after he got into something he shouldn’t have and made sure to update me on how he was doing. It can be really hard to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets, but Kayla is truly a gem. My boys were happy, loved, and well cared for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur babies! 💙🐶🐶
Jeena was very communicative and provided updates/photos while I was away. She asked all the right questions during meet and greet before I went on vacation. My senior dog is definitely needy with walks and medications throughout the day. Jeena was so sweet with her and my house was just the way I left it. I would definitely re-book.
We had Mallory stay overnight at our house with our senior Persian. Before her stay, she came over for a meet and greet so everyone felt comfortable. It was apparent that she is a very kind and caring person. During her stay she kept us updated with how things were going and pictures. She cleaned up a couple of puking incidents and let us know that Marigold had in fact puked, had been sneezing and hadn’t had a bowel movement. These updates were truly appreciated and I was relieved she was paying attention to things that seemed out of the ordinary. Marigold routinely potties on potty pads and Mallory kept up with those changings which, in my opinion, is above and beyond kitty care. Additionally, Miss Marigold tends to yowl in the nights as she has aged and has reduced vision in one eye. Mallory was patient with those night time needs and brought her back to bed with her to comfort her. Overall, I appreciate the above and beyond care and I recommend her to anyone who has kitties!
Bridget was wonderful with our dog who is not the easiest fella. He is rambunctious and she handled him well. Kept us updated with just the right amount of pictures, took him for walks several times daily. She left the house sooo clean and communicated clearly throughout the week. Definitely plan to call her again.

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 Mackenzie 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 Mackenzie 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 Mackenzie 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 .

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.
