“500 stars!! Lisa was great while we were Away for an extended period. Dogs and kitty well taken care of, house well taken care of and she went above and beyond and was very thoughtful. We appreciated it so much!”
About: I have 5 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so I’m comfortable providing medications and administering shots as needed. I’m also able to recognize potential medical concerns or changes in your pet’s condition and know when something may need further attention.Beyond medical care, I genuinely love spending time with animals! I enjoy playing with pets, giving them plenty of attention, and I’m happy to prepare their food according to their specific needs or routines. Most importantly, I will care for your pet or pets as if they were my own—with patience, love, and plenty of attention to their individual needs. My schedule is completely open right now. Genuinely, any time of day works for me, so feel free to pick whatever time is most convenient for you! I’m able to do any at-home visits! I do have a double-fenced-in yard and two very friendly dogs. However, if anything were to take place at my home, my dogs can easily stay completely separated from your pet. I’m happy to accommodate whatever makes you and your pet most comfortable!
“Sam was absolutely wonderful with my two Sharpei dogs. They are very much personality wise within the breed characteristics and are suspicious by nature and very shy. Sam knows his animals and did a fantastic job with working with them to make them comfortable. He stayed with them and made sure they were comfortable and came and let them out on his lunchbreak the day we were arriving home so they were not alone all day. He went above and beyond taking care of them. One is a pup with a bit of separation anxiety as I work from home so they are not alone often at all. I will definitely use Sam again for my pets needs. This was so much better of an experience for them than being kenneled somewhere and they would have been scared and lonely. Thank you Sam for everything and I will be recommending Rover to all my friends. It was great to get the updates daily to know that my babies were doing ok. Fantastic experience.”
“Chelsea is absolutely phenomenal! She jumped in last minute when I needed a sitter while on vacation. She immediately bonded with my dog and he fell in love with her. He can be anxious and overly excitable, but he felt comfortable with her right away. She made it possible for me to have an enjoyable outing with my family and not be worried about Odin the whole time. I can't say enough good things about her, I highly recommend her!”
“You can trust Bella. She was super communicative and so organized. She even kept a journal of how many treats our 3 babies got. Our house was in better shape than we left it. Our flight got significantly delayed and Bella stepped in and stayed an extra night and took so much stress off a stressful situation. So grateful we found her. We will definitely have her take care of our house and animals again.”
“My sweet Lexi loved al the attention she received. My house was in perfect order when I returned home. And most importantly I got lots of updates while I was away. Kristi did a great job and I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends”
About: I probably get along with dogs more than I do people. I've grown up with many, and have rescued most of the ones I have owned. Dogs are so much more than pets to me, they are family! They are such a big part of my life that I even went to school to become a vet assistant. However, life interfered and I never acquired my certificate (out of time frame, I passed my tests?). In the past two years, I’ve acquired my CCMA, and am studying now to become an RN. I love taking care of people and pets. :) I have experience pet sitting as well as working at a doggy daycare-one of my favorite jobs! Now I have bigger bills to pay, and children to take care of. However, I loved it so much that I would like to get back into doing this on the side. It’s a win-win for the both of us, because I get doggo lovings, and you get your doggo taken care of!
About: Kind, caring, responsible adult with experience caring for various animals and/Or houses. Very professional and clean sitter looking for opportunities to work with similar clients. I am newly retired from 9-5 work and I have a flexible schedule that allows for me to spend time loving on your pets. I can accommodate any schedule or needs that you have for your pet, in your home. I prefer small to medium pets but am open to any pets that are easy to care for
“Stephanie was an awesome pet sitter! She followed every instruction we left & sent us lots of pictures throughout her stay. She left our house in perfect condition & our pets we’re happy as could be. We will definitely rebook!”
“Loarann was amazing!! This was my first time using in-home boarding so I was nervous but she was so sweet and so communicative. I never once had to worry or wonder what was going on which is huge for when you go on a trip that’s stressful enough! I honestly think she left the place better than she found it and was so kind about my house being kind of a sight these days because of renovations. She seems to truly love animals and I will 100% use her again in the future, no question.”
About: I absolutely love both cats and dogs. I am willing to care for animals in my home or your home, whichever you prefer. I am available for long term and short time care. I am currently working part time but would prefer pet sitting. With enough bookings I would be able to quit my part time job. My shifts right now are mostly 3 to 6 hours. I have a small fenced yard if you prefer your pets stay at my home. My back door has access to the fenced yard. Your pets would have free reign of my home including furniture and beds.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was 4 we recently just had to put down our 15 year old pit Bull. I have a 10 year old pit mix that I hold near my heart. I hope as you look at my profile and see me you also believe that I will treat your dog as one of my own and give them the best care while you are away. As of right now I work from home, so that means I am free all day to give your dog the love and care they deserve! I do not have a fenced in yard but i am a couple blocks down from a dog friendly park that we could walk to or even just play in the spacious back yard. I also have a friendly fur baby who would love making a new friend.
“Debbie is the absolute best! She watched our two dachshunds for the weekend. When we came back they were relaxed and we definitely knew they were well taken care of. She sent pictures, and followed their routine. We will definitely use Debbie in the future!”
“Breanna was wonderful both pet sitting and house sitting. She kept us updated and gave us so much peace of mind. She helped get our new rescue kittens more comfortable being around people and we will be using her again!”
About: As an RN and experienced dog owner, I provide dependable, attentive care for puppies, senior pets, and dogs with special needs or medications. I understand the importance of safety, patience, routines, communication, and treating every pet like family. Pet care fits perfectly into my current routine, as I have open availability throughout the summer for weekdays, evenings, and weekends. My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care, including walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, medication administration, and overnight care when needed. I care for every pet as if they were my own by providing a safe, calm, loving, and attentive environment. We have 6 acres of land where dogs can safely explore, play, and enjoy plenty of exercise and fresh air, while leash walks are always welcome and fun as well. I closely follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. As an RN, safety, cleanliness, communication, and attention to detail are extremely important to me, and I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while owners are away.
“Joshua is the best!!! He was available to watch my two pups on short notice. Took excellent care of them, and they were happy and comforted while I was away. I highly recommend him!!!!”
“Shelby was great with our fur babies, she is an excellent pet/house sitter. We were gone for 5 days and she texted & sent pictures am/pm. We had great peace of mind knowing that Mia and O'lover were in good hands. In fact, when we arrived home my kids looked a little disappointed it was us and not Shelby...lol. Thanks Shelby for loving up our kiddos.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Mineral Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 403 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mineral Springs. 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 Mineral Springs 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 Mineral Springs 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 Mineral Springs 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mineral Springs. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
