About: I have had dogs of my own all my life! I am just about the biggest dog lover out there. I am really good with dogs of all ages. I am willing to do anything and be anyone the dogs need, whether that be a playmate or a lounge around buddy. I have 2 years of house/dog sitting experience so far, and am excited to have many more! I will make sure your fur babies are well taken care of, and look over your house while I'm at it. At the moment, I am not working anywhere, so my schedule is extremely flexible. However, I am planning on applying for part time positions soon, but will still have plenty of time to care for your pups! I am available to house sit whenever I am needed. My own dogs stay inside most of the time, so I have eyes on them quite often. They have a secure, fenced in yard that I let them out into very frequently, and I am always a step away watching over them. At night, I make sure all the doors are locked, and that the dogs are safely inside, have been fed, and have plenty of water in their bowl. When I house sit, I will have the same routine with your lovelies. I'll watch over them, no matter where they are, and I'll make sure they are safe and sound throughout the day and night! We can go over everything at the meet and greet before your trip! We can discuss rules for household and feeding schedules, any allergies, etc. Meet and Greets are conducted at your residence to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for meeting your furbabies. It also allows you to show me where you store food, toys, treats, etc.

“We and our pups love Brittney! She sent us daily pictures and videos of them having fun. I think the pups were a little melancholy the day after she left as they missed her.”

About: I’m a firefighter, lifelong dog lover, and avid sports fan with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up in a home that always had four or more dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding their needs, behaviors, and quirks. During high school, I also volunteered for two years at the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter, where I gained valuable experience working with a wide variety of breeds. From tiny 5-pound Chihuahuas with big personalities to gentle 150-pound Akitas, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each dog. You can count on me to treat your dog like family keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a firefighter, and my schedule is very open,I only work Sundays and Mondays, plus one Saturday night each month. That gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week to provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just keeping your best friend company, I’ll be there whenever needed to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable by maintaining the routine they’re used to while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in a safe, clean, and loving environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can see how your best friend is doing while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, and I strive to make every dog feel happy, secure, and loved until you’re back home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Minco
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 647 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Minco. 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 Minco 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 Minco 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 Minco 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.
