About: More than just a side hustle, it’s my passion. 🌸 -lifelong dog owner -experience as a wrangler, ranch hand, & foster. -worked in boarding facilities & daycares -shadowed & worked alongside professional trainers -volunteered at shelters, rescues & ranches. -Experience with all sizes, ages & personalities, from puppies to seniors, including pets with special needs etc. My Home☺️ - home 24/7, so our days have room for companionship, play, rest & more! - My mother currently stays w me, offering an extra set of caring hands. *You’re welcome to meet her, too!* :) - A single-story home with a secure yard for supervised play & grass patches on the deck for potty breaks. ⭐️My animals always come first. They eat before I do. Their happiness, safety & comfort are the first things on my mind, & when your baby is in my care, they become part of that same love <3 & I truly understand they’re not “just pets” - They are family. They know your footsteps. They find you when you’re sad. They understand silently, better than most. I understand why leaving them with someone takes so much trust & faith. That’s why I care about the little things. Whether they’ve eaten, whether they’re comfortable, whether they need to burn off some energy or just have someone sit beside them. Working with animals has taught me how to listen to the things they can’t say out loud. I would be honored to earn your trust. I want them to have someone who notices, who understands & somewhere they can rest easy ☺️ -I work from home, and have a very flexible schedule to attend to your dog's needs. -My mother stays with me, 4 eyes - instead of 2:) - My home is completely fenced in - safe for your dog to roam and run around supervised. -Back Door Screen is always open so they can go in and out when they please. -Can easily crate or separate the dogs if needed. - Neighborhood is safe and dog-friendly -Ac/heat on 24/7 for your babies ensured comfortability. I have a fully fenced yard, and two very friendly dogs. If needed, my pups definitely can be separated in a different section of the house, or crated. I have always put full dedication to keeping an eye on your pups constantly:) In my client's home, I follow every rule and expectation they imply. I take extra precautions being in the client's home, as I don’t want anything to happen to any of their stuff, or their furbaby.
About: I’ve had Golden Retrievers my entire life and currently have two of my own, Ace and Cider :) Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I have experience with puppies through senior dogs. I understand the importance of providing plenty of exercise, attention, patience, and loving care so every dog feels happy and comfortable Pet care fits perfectly into my life right now! I recently finished playing professional basketball overseas, in Australia so I have a very flexible schedule until my next season begins. I have plenty of time to give your pet the love they need. At home, I have two Golden Retrievers with a big backyard. I regularly feed them in the mornings and nights, take them to the park for walks, and spend lots of time training them. It's so rewarding to see them grow and thrive with the care and attention they deserve! I always make sure to provide the same level of care and attention to other people's pets as I do for my own. I ensure that they are fed, given proper exercise, and of course, get all the pets and treats they deserve. It's all about making sure each furry friend feels loved and well taken care of!
About: I taken care when I was very young even taking care of ill/sick animals. I'll nurse them back to health when vets couldn't do it. I bottle feed and take them to the restroom when they are babies. I been taking care since 10 years old. I'm very open with my schedule and love to be around animals. I work from home working as a editor and have lots of free time. I have a gate area for all animals. I always have them on a leash and make sure we walk in the morning or evening. It's too hot for their paws if you have booties for them even great. Always have water on me and poop bags. I never have anything laying around for them to eat or play with. I'm always outside with them when need to go potty and play.
About: Hello! I am Woody’s Owner ( 2 yo, m, Aussie, 55 lbs) and you got a friend in me! I am communicative, positive, and flexible with your needs. I am high energy, loving, and helpful. Here’s a little about my pet experience: I have volunteered at animal shelters since I was fifteen years old. I have experience with reptiles, birds, cats, and dogs. I enjoy backpacking, hiking, trail walks, and simply crocheting at home with the tv on. I like to watch the next Netflix drama hit, obviously. I have activities to do with high energy dogs and even low energy ones. See you’ve got a friend in me. I’ve got you through the highs and lows. I have open availability most of the week. I am open to any routines owners would like me to continue for their pets. This can be related to food, exercise, medication, and so on. My dog is kennel trained, so he can be separated from any other dogs I’m sitting if the dog I am sitting is not socialized. However, my dog is socialized and will be happy to have a playmate. I can take your pet out as often as you require and I can transport dogs to the dog park if that is okay. I also have extra feeding and water bowls, as well as toys and treats for any dog I am sitting. I also have a fenced yard.

About: I grew up in a home filled with cats, dogs, rabbits, squirrels and birds. I've reached an age where Im ready to give my all to their love and necessities full time. Im a stay at home empty nester mother who loves animals and the joy they bring. A house just really isn't a home without animals. Im very picky about the food my animals consume. I cook up 6 pounds of turkey a week with added vegetables, a scoop of Iams minichunks and a half of a can of wet food. Sometimes I add a packet of pedigree for a extra treat. People say I feed my dogs better than humans. 🤣

“Elizabeth was fantastic. She went above and beyond for our fearful pup. We had several meetups before she stayed with him. She was patient and allowed him to get comfortable with her on his terms. She kept us up to date on how he was doing during her stay, so I never had to worry.”

“Jeanett was absolutely amazing. My pup absolutely adores her. She took him on plenty of walk and provided me with many updates and pictures throughout my trip. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter and will definitely book with her in the future!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She stayed in our home for a week while we were on vacation and took amazing care of our French Bulldog, Tomas. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in his own environment with someone who truly cared for him. She kept us updated with messages and photos, followed all of Tomas’s routine and instructions, and treated our home with respect. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a house that was just as clean as when we left. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and Tomas was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter.”

“Mariah was absolutely amazing with our dog, Kona! Kona can be a hyper handful and Mariah was able to handler her perfectly. She was respectful of our home and we didn’t have to worry about anything. We will definitely be booking again!”

About: Hi, I'm Chelsea! When you trust someone with your pets, you're trusting them with a member of your family, and that's a responsibility I take seriously. I'm an experienced pet care provider with a growing clientele and hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic Bull Terriers and gentle giants like Great Danes and Great Pyrenees to shy, nervous, and reactive dogs, I've learned that successful pet care isn't one-size-fits-all. What sets me apart? I'm not someone who simply shows up, completes a service, and leaves. I pay attention to the little things: your pet's body language, energy levels, comfort, behavior, and individual needs. I believe in building trust with every animal in my care, especially those who need a little extra patience and understanding. I'm confident handling strong, energetic dogs and understand the importance of leash safety, environmental awareness, and recognizing potential triggers during walks. Whether your dog loves adventure or prefers a slower, more relaxed pace, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. My experience doesn't stop with dogs! I've grown up surrounded by animals and currently care for my own dogs, cats, rats, and reptiles. I'm comfortable with multi-pet households and understand that different species require different routines, handling, and attention. Your home and your peace of mind matter, too. Alongside pet care, I have approximately 10 years of professional cleaning experience working inside clients' homes. I understand the importance of being dependable, respectful of your space, and trustworthy when you're not there. When you book with me, you can expect: - Attentive, individualized care tailored to your pet - Regular photo updates and honest communication - Patience with shy, nervous, or high-energy animals - Respect for your pet's established routines - A dependable professional who genuinely enjoys what she does My goal isn't just to provide a service. It's to become someone you and your pets look forward to seeing again. Whether you need a reliable dog walker, someone to check in on your pets, or a trusted sitter while you're away, I'd love the opportunity to earn your trust. Your pets deserve more than basic care. They deserve someone who pays attention, understands their needs, and treats them like family. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule to help with yours and your pets needs,most of the weekends im available as well! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow your care instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, keep a clean and secure environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send regular photo updates for peace of mind.

About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.
“Nichole was absolutely perfect. She took great care of my dog Kaya and left our house in pristine condition, which is always appreciated. She was very communicative and I was definitely put at ease while on our camping trip about any concerns over Kaya. Highly recommended. I will be contacting Nichole in the future :)”

FAQs for House Sitting - Minnelusa
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 614 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Minnelusa. 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 Minnelusa 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 Minnelusa 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 Minnelusa 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.

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.
