“Kaylee was a big help to us. She agreed to the sitting on short notice and that enabled us to attend a funeral in Taiwan. The house was kept in good condition - she washed the sheets and towels, as well as the dishes. Chloe is a rescue pup with anxiety issues, and Kaylee was able to help her deal with our absence.”


About: Back when I was a kid, my family owned a cattery that I helped take care of. We owned 32 cats and 1 dog at one time. Growing up, I learned how to truly take care of animals, helping deliver kittens during birth, bottle feeding, and training them to be tolerant, friendly, handleable, and able to take walks on a harness and leash. I've had many different pets since then, including a snake, fish, and cats of my own. I've always loved animals of all kinds and I've had a unique kinship with almost every animal I meet. I commonly hear "They're usually not this friendly" around new pets I meet, and at parties and other events, I'm usually found petting the dog on the floor somewhere. Since then, I've been helping my friend with their dog sitting business and decided to venture forth on my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I am currently in between positions, so I have complete and open availability to help take care of your pets. If you have a special needs pet, I can work with you to provide more intensive care. I want to learn more about how you treat your pets so I can provide the same loving environment that they are used to. I'd love to be your pet-parent substitute.
“Paulina did a wonderful job with our pets. The stay was during Christmas, so it was extra special that she could stay at our home to care for our dogs. I will definitely have Paulina again!”
“Briana was very communicative the whole time we were out of town! We have a large dog that is very picky with new people and she took great care of him! We received several photos and videos over the four days we were gone. Definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve only cared for a dog when we use to have one sadly he passes. I will gladly put those skills in use for your dog. Pet care will go perfectly in my schedule either before or after school, even during my lunch if needed. I will gladly make time for your pets. In my home we treat pets how we would treat another human with respect and giving all the love they need. We give what they need and more.
“Tamara was fantastic! She spent quality time with our fur babies and made sure they were well taken care while we were gone. She sent updates and pictures which was nice. I would definitely use her again!”

“Arrived as scheduled. Communication great and included lots of pictures. Very responsive to my questions. Arrived back to happy dogs and tidy and clean home. Definitely recommend and would use again”
“Faith did a fantastic job with our two busy Labradors. She followed their schedule perfectly and made sure they got plenty of exercise. The 6 days she was here wasn’t with challenges and she handled them perfectly. I appreciated all the updates and pictures. Her sister, Shauna stepped in when Faith had to take her Mother to the doctor. Both ladies were lovely and I will definitely use them again.”

I'm looking to take on more clients and would love to meet you and your furry friends! I have experience with cats, dogs, birds, rodents, and chickens, but always willing to learn! I am very comfortable giving all kinds of medicine, and very comfortable with elderly and senior animals who need extra care.

I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, welcoming environment in every pet care experience. Your pet’s well being is always my top concern, and I take care to follow any routines, preferences, or special instructions you provide. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I communicate clearly, give regular updates, and treat your home and pet with the same respect I would my own. My goal is to create a stress free, secure environment where your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away!
“Debbie was great! Great communication, photos, and my dog seemed to really like her. My dogs were happy and healthy when we returned. She also watered all my outside flowers while I was away.”

About: Taken care of all types of animals including farm animals. I’m an avid animal walker as well. I’ve worked on a farm, I’m also trained with horses. I work a daytime, split shift so I am able to come back and forth to check on any animals I may be caring for. I offer both my home and services at a clients' home, however, I do prefer sitting at my clients’ homes as it often less stressful for the animal.
About: Taking care of animals is my full time passion, if you want someone that genuinely cares then I’m definitely the right person for you. If you have a dog, cat, rabbit or dinosaur they are in safe hands with me :) I’m available every day to care for your pets. After my normal job hours; I always ensure your pet gets the care and attention they need. If you’re looking for someone flexible and dependable, I’m the perfect fit! I make sure they are fed, drink water, pooped and peed before I head to bed. I will always text you updates throughout the day with videos and pictures. I can also deep clean your house and give you rides to the airport if you’d like!
About: Hi! I'm Dakota, and I've been around animals my entire life. From schnauzers and springer spaniels to Rottweilers and labs, I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe pets are family, and I love getting to know each animal's unique quirks and needs. I'm a dependable, punctual person who values honesty and communication. I understand that life happens and not everything is within our control. Whether schedules change unexpectedly or your pet needs a little extra patience and understanding, I'll always do my best to work with you and provide compassionate care. I have two energetic kids, a Russell Terrier, and a playful Labrador of my own, so caring for animals is simply part of my everyday life. I start each day with walks, feedings, potty breaks, and plenty of pet care, and I end my days the same way. Making sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for is second nature to me. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and quality one-on-one attention for your furry family members. I have a small fenced backyard that's perfect for supervised playtime and games of fetch. I also prioritize safety by avoiding outdoor activities during extreme temperatures and always following your pet's feeding schedules and care routines. My goal is simple: to care for your pets the same way I care for my own.. with patience, kindness, consistency, and lots of love. I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your animals, and I would be honored to be that person for your family. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I have two rambunctious kids, a Russell Terrier, and a Labrador of my own, so I understand that life with pets can be both busy and rewarding. I'm currently a full-time online student, and aside from my regular household responsibilities, I have a very flexible schedule. Checking in on fur babies is easy to accommodate and truly one of my favorite parts of the day. I love providing pets with the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while giving their owners peace of mind. I have a small, fully fenced backyard that provides a safe space for supervised outdoor play and games of fetch. My Labrador is very playful and loves having a canine companion to run around with! While my yard isn't large, it's plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and fun. Your pet's safety and routine are always my top priorities. I closely follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and outdoor time. Walks are also an important part of a dog's day, weather permitting, and I always check pavement temperatures to ensure it's safe for sensitive paws before heading out.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mathews Corner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mathews Corner on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Mathews Corner 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 Mathews Corner 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 Mathews Corner 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.
