About: I have been pet sitting for family and friends on and off for 10 years. I have experience watching dogs, cats, bunnies, and many more animals! I’m an honest hard worker with an attention to detail with a big passion for loving and taking care of pets. I’m currently a homemaker with some free time and would love to fill it with caring for animals. I have a very flexible schedule.

About: Hi friends and family! My name is Gaby and I’m a 20 year old college student. I devote my life to making your fur babies happy. I love all dogs and your fur baby will be treated like family ❤️. I’ll follow their routine, shower them with playtime, and send you daily updates & pics 🐾📸. Guaranteed to make you and your pup smile 😊. Dogs have always and will forever hold a special place in my heart. I was a mommy to my own 2 fur babies that I took in for a family member for 4 years. I have raised litters of puppies multiple times all by myself. Growing up I would take care of my friend’s fur babies at no cost because it meant I would get free cuddles and a best friend all in one. I’m happy to help at anytime and give your pup extra love and cuddles while you’re away! I’m a full time pet caregiver. I’m very flexible with time since I am home 24/7. I will accommodate my time to match your pets needs. Follow their routine (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) Give 'em love & attention 🐾❤️ Keep their space clean & comfy Watch for any health concerns (energy levels, appetite) Update clients regularly 📸 Be very attentive, responsive, and patient. 📍DISCLAIMER 📍 ***Please make sure all pets vaccinations are up to date and treated for tics/fleas. 🚫🪳***
“Kelley was wonderful! She played with our dogs and took great care of them for a whole week. She also took care of our cats and chickens. She was very reliable and very caring. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I have had a jack terrier mix for 6+ months in a shared home experience. So much energetic fun. Home Care for people and pets. Currently I am in-between work so I have plenty of time to fit your pet sitting needs. I am available to accommodate your travel needs. I have a nine year old daughter who loves animals. We will take them out as often as needed. They'll be lots of play time.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have experience with mediation management and administration and am comfortable caring for medically complex or senior pets :) I work full time but do work from home about 75% of the time at least so I am home most of the day to care for your pets! I have two friendly dogs and two dog-savvy cats who get along with everyone! I can easily crate or separate animals into separate spaces in my home if the need arises
“Kerstin was wonderful!! She stayed in our home for a week with our 5 cats and was better than I even expected! This was my first time using Rover and meeting Kerstin. Usually a family member will drop in to feed our cats but I really wanted someone who could stay there and maintain the cats routine. I picked Kerstin because of her great reviews and she really lived up to those reviews! She got to know each cat and sent pics and updates of what the cats did everyday which I loved! While we were gone we felt comfortable and grateful to have Kerstin there looking after things. When we got home the house was clean and sanitized, she brought in the mail, the bed was made with clean sheets and she even ironed pillowcases along with some other special touches and gifts for our kids. She’s a genuinely good person who does a great job! We’re super happy and will definitely use her again!! :)”
“Katherine was simply amazing and we highly recommend her for all of your house and pet sitting needs. She left our home in immaculate condition and took amazing care of our fur babies while we were away. She sent videos and pictures multiple times a day and I think our dogs miss her more than they missed us! We greatly appreciate all that Katherine did for us this week.”
About: 🌱Since a little girl all the way up to now I have been surrounded by animals. I have experience in caring for both cats and dogs alike as I have fur babies myself; 3 cats and a Pharaoh Hound. 🌱 🌿I will gladly follow special care instructions and supervision advisories as needed to ensure your pet is comfortable in their own home.🌿 ✨Have an Exotic/ “Unconventional” pet? I’ll care for them too! 🐠🦜🐁🐍🦎( this excludes Insect pets.)✨ All I ask is that if I am to pet sit to please allow me to bring my dog if it is overnight stay. I am typically available full-time on the weekends only as I have all day off on those days. Weekdays I am available after 5pm. After I get off of work I typically care for my own pets before relaxing myself. I like to follow instructions provided by the owner. I typically prefer to give pets their respective space unless they show to be needy with affection or hyperactive and need an outlet for their energy via playtime!
“Parris calmed my nerves as this was our first time using Rover for a pet sitter. He was at our house for the entire time we were gone which is important to us because we don’t want our pups in their crates for long periods of time. He texted updates with pictures and videos of our pets and that was much appreciated. He cleaned up after himself and left the house clean and tidy (not all dog/house sitters are as considerate!) I plan on to call on Parris again for our pet sitting needs!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Mayo is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $55 per night.

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 Mayo 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 Mayo 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 Mayo 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. 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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
