“We had an excellent experience with Hailey. From the moment we met, she was professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were happy, well cared for, and comfortable throughout the stay. It was obvious that they received plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care. Communication was prompt and reliable, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We would absolutely book with her again!”

“Farrin was wonderful with our two dogs and cat. They took to her right away! She was on time, followed our instructions, sent daily messages, and left the house in good and clean condition. Highly recommend!”

“Trinity took wonderful care of our pups! We had a last minute vacation and she was able to come do a meet and greet within a day of us leaving. Our dogs were well cared for and we are very thankful for her quick response and wonderful care!”

“Jimmy was fantastic! Our dog is nervous when first meeting people and Jimmy was patient and friendly! He took great care of our pets and house and I’m so grateful he was available for our last minute request. He sent us pics and updates regularly. 10/10 would book again! Thank you, Jimmy!”


“April was great! Great communication, easy to work with, always on time, accommodating on schedule/making adjustments I needed for my trip and up front about her schedule and conflicts she had, which she helped me with. Dogs adored her and were at ease during the first meet and weren't stressed when I got home. Will book again and recommend!”

“Chelsea D. Was super easy to talk to. She offered a meet and greet. That was perfect, she spent time to get to know the doggies and their needs. She arrived early on the day she set for our fur babies, that relieved us from stress. She’s a natural with pets with separation anxiety! When we arrived back home our one lil man that has separation anxiety showed no signs of stress, that was so comforting to us. The other two were very happy also. Looks like all 3 have a new friend. We will most definitely use Chelsea D. again! Thank you for sitting our babies!”


About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Experienced with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication reminders, and keeping pets comfortable in their routines. I'm currently working part time and doing online school so I have plenty of extra time to take care of all your pets needs! I provide loving, reliable care by feeding pets on schedule, giving exercise, attention, playtime, comfort, and following each owner’s instructions carefully! I have a fenced back yard as well.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and horses since I was 15. I have had pets my whole life. I have owned various breeds of dogs and cats. I have pet sat for all kinds of dogs, cats and horses and look forward to caring for your animals! I've had experience caring for various aged animals and am comfortable with all kinds. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate early mornings, afternoons and evenings throughout the week. I look forward to working with you and meeting your pets! I am willing to accommodate your family's needs in your home. I consider pets family, and will care for them as you would to make them feel the most comfortable while you are away.

About: I have over 10 years experience with training dogs. I’m currently a certified dog trainer at Petsmart. I will treat your pup with respect. No such thing as a bad dog. Can't wait to meet your pup. I’m a trainer at petsmart current working everyday except Tuesdays and Thursdays currently. Those days I’m free to feed, walk, play with or dog sit your pup.

About: Premium, Personalized Dog Care — Where Your Dog Feels Right at Home With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for breeds like German Shepherds, Dobermans, Coon Hounds, and Pomeranians, I’ve built my life around understanding and supporting the needs of dogs. Today, I live on a spacious, fully fenced one-acre property with two friendly pups of my own — the perfect place for your dog to run, play, and feel safe. I work from home, so your pup gets round-the-clock care and supervision. Whether they need extra attention, medication, a quiet nap zone, or just lots of play and snuggles, I’m here 24/7 to ensure they feel like they never left home. Unlike high-volume sitters, I don’t pack in multiple dogs just to fill a schedule. I limit the number of pets I care for so I can provide focused, high-quality attention to each dog. No crates unless you request it. No chaos. Just personalized, loving care in a calm and safe home. There are no children in my household — just a peaceful environment where your pet is treated like family. Whether your dog needs open space to play, structure, or quiet time, I adjust to their routine and personality. My rates reflect the premium, one-on-one care I provide — not just a service, but a home-away-from-home experience for your dog. If you're looking for attentive, professional, and trustworthy care from someone who treats your dog like their own, you’ve found it. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home full-time, which allows me to be fully present and attentive throughout the day. My dogs are part of my life, not just my schedule — and the same goes for any pet I care for. I build my day around walks, enrichment activities, playtime, and quiet moments, making sure each dog gets the stimulation and comfort they need. Rover isn't just a side gig for me — it’s something I genuinely care about. I love being able to share my time and home with other pets, giving them the same level of love and attention I give to my own. In my home, your pet will be treated like one of the family. I have a fully fenced one-acre yard for safe, supervised outdoor play, and two small, friendly dogs to provide companionship if your pup enjoys socializing. I ensure 24/7 access to fresh drinking water, regular bathroom breaks, and a calm, cozy indoor environment where your dog can relax freely — crated only if you prefer. I follow your care instructions closely, including administering any medications as prescribed. Whether it’s maintaining their feeding schedule, providing playtime, or offering extra snuggles, I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved — just like they would at home.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have been a proud dog owner since I was a young kid. I know exactly what it takes to keep a pup happy and healthy. In addition to raising my own dogs, I have extensive experience caring for others' pets. I regularly host family friends' dogs, have completed overnight house sittings (including 3+ night stays), and frequently manage dog walking schedules. Because my own dog at home prefers to be an 'only child,' I do not offer boarding at my house—meaning your dog gets 100% of my attention right in the comfort of their own familiar environment. (Please note: I do not care for cats due to allergies!). I am a recent college graduate spending my summer strictly focused on studying for my medical school entrance exams. Because my entire schedule consists of independent laptop study, I treat house sitting as my personal, quiet study retreat. Your dog will be my primary focus! I love using my study breaks to get outside, stretch my legs, and take your pup for long, refreshing walks. I am home for the vast majority of the day, making my schedule flexible and reliable. I know how important it is to feel secure leaving your home and pet in someone else's hands. I am clean, quiet, and extremely respectful of your space. While watching your pup, I follow their exact routine down to the letter to keep their stress levels low. I maintain an eagle-eye view on safety during walks, keeping dogs securely on-leash and away from unknown animals. Plus, I love sending regular photo and text updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away!
About: I’ve been around horses all my life. I’ve also have had cats and dogs for the last 30 years. I’ve also helped with rescues to find homes for cats and dogs. I try to be flexible on scheduling. I can walk, come in let animals out, feed animals, ect. I can also give daily updates on how your pets are doing. I’ve helped take care of puppies and kittens as well. I have 3 dogs and 5 cats at home. My horse passed away in 2019. I’ve had a few cats over the last few years that have had to be put down due to health complications. The animals safety and health is highly important to me. They’ll get excellent care. I accommodate to what the owners would like. I have open availability! I will mark out any days on the app that I may be out of town or unavailable to do a service! I’d love to be able to help take care of your beloved pets! I have a fenced yard. Can turn the dogs out separately. Can also come to your house and walk. Crate if necessary. Lots of play time

“Robin did a SUPERB job of house/dog sitting over the weekend. She is friendly, quick to respond to emails/texts and sends photos of the kidz having fun! I highly recommend her for any house/pet sitting needs and will certainly be calling on her again.”

“Outstanding!! I couldn’t be happier with the house sitting by Sarah E. Great communication before, during and after the service. Clinton was obviously very happy after seeing pictures. I can’t recommend her more highly. Thank you!”

About: I was raised with dogs (shelties, primarily) and now have a hobby farm with goats, dogs (german shepherds, a lab and a sheltie), ducks and a cat. I'm reliable and friendly and happy to follow whatever instruction and routine you need. Your pets will be well cared for and you'll receive plenty of photo updates while you're gone! I have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate nearly any routine your pet is used to, including frequent walks and potty breaks. I will work with you to keep your pet's schedule as close to what they are used to as possible. If boarding in my home, we have a fenced yard, plenty of area to go on leashed walks, and they will get plenty of one on one attention and care. I'm happy to do transport or add in a bath during your pet's stay so your life can be as simple as possible while you're trying to get out the door for your trip. Pet care is my full time job and priority. I can adapt as needed to make sure your pet keeps the routine they are comfortable with, even when you aren’t home. I will ask questions and take notes on your pets’ routine and then do my best to ensure that those habits are in place with me.

FAQs for House Sitting - Margo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 632 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Margo. 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 Margo 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 Margo 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 Margo 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.
