“Was our first time using Chloe and she stayed 4 days with our fur baby! We were so happy with her and she spoiled him with daily walks, cuddles and playtime! She sent pictures of him and he always looked so happy with her. She went beyond what we asked and came home to a happy boy and a clean house. ( which wasn’t expected)”
“Esther gave us the valuable gift of peace of mind during our Labor Day weekend getaway. She was very respectful of our home and she was attentive to our furry boy Jeff. She sent pictures of their walks and also pictures of him finally coming around to having a new face in his space. Jeff was happy to see us when we got home, but I also suspect he misses Esther. We will definately be searching for Esther on Rover for our next getaway.”
“Cambria took awesome care of our two cats while we were away! She’s professional and responsive, and we appreciated the updates and photos. Our cats look forward to seeing her again!”
“Suzie was a great dog sitter! She watched Chipper for 2 nights and I felt very comfortable with the updates and pictures she sent!! Suzie was very nice and took great care of Chipper!! She also kept out place near and tidy. I definitely recommend Suzie and would book her again without question!”
“They did a great job of watching my dogs for me in my home. The dogs loved them immediately and wanted to spend the entire time playing or cuddled up with them. They were also really quick to respond to my last minute message requesting a booking. I really appreciate them being able to watch them and doing such a great job. I would book again.”
“Sarah took great care of our kitty and our home. Our cat can be skittish and anxious around new people, but she they immediately vibed so well! We could tell in our daily updates that she was having so much fun and bonding with Sarah.”
“I appreciate Marilyn staying with the boys again, for an at house sitting with my 2 pups. I would reccomend her to friends needing extra help for day trips or at home support. Thanks again 🙂”
“Abbagayle did great pet sitting for our super senior dog Remy who is almost 18. She was kind, gentle, and trustworthy. She has a gentle presentation that’s comforting for pets and Remy seemed to really like her. We have highly recommend her as a sitter for any pet.”
“Tony was excellent. We were out of town for 11 days, he sent us updates and photos. He is an amazing communicator. Our flight canceled coming home and I had my sister go pick up the dogs, she said that the dogs were so calm and happy. He also left my house spotless. I couldn't be more happy with Tony's services. We will be going out of town a few more times this year, Tony will be our FIRST choice, nd hopefully only choice. We couldn't be more happy with the respect and love he gave to our home and our dogs. Thanks Again Tony.”
About: Hi there! I'm Sade (pronounced as shaw-day). I'm a down-to-earthy human who loves and respects nature and all animals (even bugs)! 🪲 Although I do have experience in caring for doggos, I have a special connection with felines! Please read my Cat Care details for more info! :)) Currently, I'm available throughout the week from 8am to 5pm. On weekends, I'm available 5pm to 930pm. This is subject to change in late October. Others have defined me as hyper-vigilant and empathetic. This can be a blessing and a curse but when it comes to caring for pets, it's definitely more of a blessing! I'm keenly aware of environmental surroundings and identifying unsafe details/ possible hazards (plastic bags, toxic houseplants, etc.), and ensuring that critters are safe in their homes. I also honor rules/ standards/ boundaries set by others, **though I will deny providing services if I feel what is being asked of me is unethical/unsafe**. Overall, I understand that each fur-baby is unique and requires custom care and attention.

I have plenty of time to take care of your pet; whether it be a quick feed, a walk, or simply being there so they don’t get lonely! I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and ages. I’m comfortable with all animals, from the smallest puppies to our senior dogs!

About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life and have 3 years of experience pet sitting for friends, family and community members. I have experience with various dog breeds at all different life stages, all with widely varying needs. I truly love connecting with, being with and caring for animals and derive great satisfaction from developing loving relationships with furry friends. With me, you can rest assured that your loved ones are taken care of with attentiveness, kindness and reverence. I work part-time and am typically unavailable from 1-6pm Monday-Friday. Outside of that time I am happy to be with and care for your loved ones! I only pet-sit in other's homes due to having my own pets. I love people just as much as animals, and as such, do my best to respect other's space, property and boundaries. I abide by campground rules in life meaning I do my best to always leave a space just as I found it, if not better off. I believe communication is very important and I like to connect with clients to discuss all expectations and boundaries in regard to both their animals and their home.

I understand that pets are family, and my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, including active dogs who love walks and playtime, as well as pets who need extra patience or special attention. As a nurse, I’m comfortable with medication administration, monitoring for changes in behavior or health, and staying calm in unexpected situations. I’m also a dog owner myself and understand the importance of routine, enrichment, exercise, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet needs a fun adventure, a relaxing visit, or dependable overnight care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I currently work per diem as a Registered Nurse, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have cared for every personality you can imagine —> hyper pups, mellow cats, protective dogs, social butterfly pets, and those who think they’re human. Over the years I’ve learned the most important skill in all any care: patience. I began pet sitting in 2015 for friends and family and quickly became the go-to person when someone needed reliable care. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, turtles, snakes, fish, and hamsters. I am a former Petco employee so I have seen, cared, and handled them all. I adapt easily to each pet’s routine and personality, and I always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I can take care of our furry friend on days that become available to me. I have an accurate schedule set up two weeks in advance with plenty of time to check up on meet and greets. For 🐶: I have experience with crate trained dogs as well as house bound only dogs. I make sure that the pet’s physical health is stimulated by taking them on walks and playing games with them. I adjust to their schedule and their likes/dislikes in the home. I have experience with dogs that weren’t allowed in certain rooms or outside without a leash and I would make sure of that. For 🐱: these furry friends thrive on routine and familiarity, so I focus on keeping everything consistent and stress-free. When caring for cats in their own home, I stick to their regular feeding schedule, refresh water bowls, and keep litter boxes clean. I spend time with them based on their personality whether that’s interactive play or just being nearby for company. I also make sure their space stays tidy and cozy so they feel secure while you’re away. For all other friends 🐠🐢🐹🦜🐓🐰🦎🐍: I understand how important it is to keep even the smallest pets feeling safe and cared for while you are away. I always follow your care instructions closely to keep their routines consistent, whether that means feeding fish and turtles on schedule, refreshing water for rabbits and hamsters, making sure birds and chickens have a clean and comfortable space, checking heat lamps for reptiles, etc I pay attention to the little details that matter, like maintaining proper water / temperature levels for aquatic pets, cleaning cages and habitats thoroughly, and giving each animal the right balance of attention and gentle handling based on their needs. My goal is always to create a calm and secure environment so every pet, no matter how small, stays healthy and happy until you return. 🪴: I also offer plant care, keeping your plants watered and healthy so they thrive until you return.

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 Mentone 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 Mentone 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 Mentone 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
