About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.
“This was our second time having Isaiah housesit for us. He was very attentive to our dog, leopard gecko, and hermit crab, and I trust him to take good care of our pets and our house while we're gone.”
“Tracy was a great pet sitter for our dog while we were away for a long weekend. She was respectful of our home and kept the place just as we'd left it. She accommodated all of our scheduling and pet care requests and communicated with us well all through our trip. Our dog was well cared for and happy when we returned home. We would gladly recommend Tracy to our friends and book her again! Thank you Tracy!”
“Virginia was a lifesaver! We needed a dog/house sitter last minute, and she gladly accepted without hesitation. She even showed up at 5 AM when we were panicking about our puppy Chico barking and the neighbors possibly complaining. That alone already meant so much to us. She took such great care of Chico, played with him, kept him entertained, and he genuinely seemed to have an amazing time with her. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house, which says everything about how thoughtful and responsible she is. We’re super grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommended! 💛🐾”
About: I bring more than 20 years of professional experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare, caring for pets and supporting the people who love them. My background includes veterinary hospital leadership and many years with the San Francisco SPCA, and I'm also Fear Free Certified. I have extensive experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, including puppies, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, multi-pet households, medication routines, and pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. My Fear Free training helps me recognize signs of fear, anxiety, and stress and adjust my approach so each pet can feel as safe and comfortable as possible. My veterinary background also means I pay attention to the little things. I'm accustomed to noticing changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy, or overall wellbeing and communicating concerns promptly. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, follow their routines closely, and make sure you get plenty of updates and photos while you're away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I'm available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate morning, daytime, and evening visits. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll do my best to keep their normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines intact while you're away. With more than 20 years of experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare and Fear Free certification, I'm very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, ages, and needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'll double-check doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details, keep your pet's environment clean, and provide detailed updates and photos so you always know how things are going. I know you're trusting me with two things that matter enormously—your pet and your home—and I don't take either responsibility lightly.
“Fiona is wonderful she is very knowledgeable about dogs and was so kind to my anxious dog. She came to me for a meet and greet and followed every direction. I would love to have Fiona watch my dog again!”
“Halona was a fantastic house- and pet-sitter for us. Her communication was prompt and clear, she went above and beyond our expectations in terms of making sure the animals were well cared for from the time we left until our return, and she genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with the animals and getting to know them. The house was spotless upon our return, and the fresh flowers and note were a nice touch. I'm so happy to have found Halona to take care of our home and pets while we are away!”
“She did a great job caring for my needy pup and keeping my house in order during an extended trip. It gave me peace of mind while I was gone, which I appreciate a lot.”
“Danielle is the best!! She stayed over a weekend to watch our new pup Bella. Her communication is great- she went above and beyond to keep us updated on Bella’s care. We were so comfortable knowing Bella was safe at home with her while we were both away. We will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”
“Hali was responsive and clearly knows a lot about cats. She took great care of my cat while I was away for a long weekend. She went above and beyond with my kitty and my home! I’ll definitely ask her to stay again in the future.”
“Teagan did a wonderful job house sitting with our good boy. Teagan was very communicative and respectful. This was a bit of a last minute request on our side, but Teagan went out of her to make it work. She came home at lunch to walk our dog, and then did a walk in the evening. She sent us photos throughout and checked in if she had any questions. She cleaned up after herself as well before leaving. We would use Teagan’s services again!”
About: Hi there! I have taken care of 5+ different families pets that include dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, etc! I love taking care of dogs & cats especially and have experience in pets of all ages. I also have experience in emergency situations with elderly pets, that called for immediate vet attention, puppy emergencies of all sorts, and even reactive pets. I develop a deep care for animals and prioritize learning each and every pets personality and needs. My professional work consists of freelance work, so in between I love to surround myself with animals and nature. A lot of the time my freelance work is done from my computer. To balance that out, I frequently go out into nature as part of my routine when time allows so for those who have pets who need outdoor time, I'm a great fit for you! As long as I have my cup of joe, and my laptop I'm a pretty easy going person! My approach to taking care and building a trusting relationship with your pet would focus on prioritizing their needs by learning their personalities. Some pets who have separation anxiety require a lot of affection, some who are high energy require a bit more exercise, and some who need mental stimulation just need exposure to different smells or visual stimulation! It just depends on what your pet needs.
“Erika was very sweet and took great care of our old boy, Watson. He was well loved while we were away. Erika was also very respectful of our house. We will try to have her over again!”
“Elizabeth was amazing! She took great care of our 3 doggos, sending all the pictures a dog mom could have wanted. She gave regular updates, which really set our minds at ease while we were away. She has a great way with pups, understanding the each doggo has their own personality and working with them as they were comfortable. Highly recommend her, your pups will be in save hands!”
“We had such a great experience with Vivian! My puppy loved her and she took great care of him and left the house in wonderful shape while we were gone. She sent regular updates and we knew our puppy was in great hands! Highly recommend Vivian.”
“Rebecca has been caring for Mikko and Kona for a year and a half now. She is truly the best! She takes great care of them, and has even had to take Mikko to the vet with an emergency and did fantastic caring for him! She is a great communicator and loves Mikko and Kona very much!”
“If I could give Myra, and her daughter, Victoria, 27 stars, I would! The short version: Hire her. Here's the long version: I am, by every benchmark, a crazy dog mom. I am way too particular about our dogs' food, I am overly cautious about their safety, I'm surprised our pet insurance company hasn't dropped us by now due to all the vet visits, and we pay to have the dogs walked Monday through Friday to ensure their happiness. Leaving our dogs is nearly traumatic for me. I am never able to actually enjoy "vacations" because I worry about them the whole time. But not this time... Myra and her daughter, Victoria, recently stayed with our dogs in our home for a week. They tag-teamed. There was always someone here with our dogs. Before the trip, Myra came over to meet the dogs. They immediately loved her. She asked insightful questions and made sure she understood everything that was important to us while we were away. She even came a second time with Victoria to meet the dogs. They loved her too. True to my crazy dog mom moniker, I left an entire 20+ page binder with detailed directions for every day we'd be away. Every day, step-by-step. Not only did Myra and Victoria follow every instruction to a T, they went above and beyond by filling our bird water, setting out seeds and peanuts for the squirrels, changing the outdoor dog water bowls, and watering my garden, every single day that we were gone. Our critters and my plants wouldn't have known I was even away. They treated our home with respect and care. I think it was cleaner when we returned home than before we left. Several times a day, Myra sent us photos of the dogs. They didn't feel like the standard proof-of-life photos. The dogs looked legitimately happy and carefree, and her messages carried her own joy in their wacky behavior. While they were here, they bestowed so much love and care on our dogs. Our rambunctious Aussie-mix can be a challenge, and instead of becoming frustrated with her, they seemed tickled by her goofiness. They made sure our newly adopted one-eyed dog was always safe. This same dog has some food resource guarding issues, and they were very careful about separating the dogs during meals. Our dogs compete for first position on walks and pull like sled dogs. At my request, Myra walked them separately, one at a time. This was twice the work for her. I honestly feel terrible that I asked so much of them while we were away. And when I reiterated this to her upon our return, she simply said nothing was out of the ordinary for her, and she loved being here with our dogs. I would be honored if Myra and Victoria would be willing to sit with our dogs again. If you are lucky enough to have them fit you into their schedule, I'm sure you'll feel the same.”

Natalie watched our dogs for over two weeks and we could not have asked for a better pet sitter. She made sure they were well taken care of, followed all of our instructions, sent daily updates with photos, picked up more dog food when we unexpectedly ran out, and even cleaned our house before we got home. Will definitely use her again next time we need someone to look after our boys.
Mia watched our pup for 2.5 weeks. Our pup has a back condition so I was nervous to leave him, but she was great with him and following our instructions. I also got to meet her boyfriend and sister before we went on our trip and felt very comfortable with everyone. It was nice that she got to come a few days before we left so we could go over all the instructions. She was also flexible on her departure time when we thought we were going to miss our flight and come home late. Our house was clean and in great condition when we got home. Thanks Mia! We'd definitely recommend.
Hannah is amazing! My husband and I went on vacation and not once were we worried of our three furbabies. She gave them loves everyday and provided daily updates which made us very confimorted. She followed all our instructions and did more than we asked. We are so grateful to her and we will always hire her to be our sitter.
Jessica is a wonderful pet sitter. I was very worried about leaving my old cats for a couple of days and Jessica was so kind and responsible that it eased my worries. She was able to give my cat three liquid medications and help him eat. The cats seemed happy and well cared for when we returned home. In addition, she was flexible with schedule changes and very responsive over text. I could not recommend her enough!
Joe was amazing. We needed last minute help with our dog and had never used Rover before. Joe jumped right in and made us feel super comfortable. He communicated all along the way and spoiled our dog with long hikes and tons of snuggles. We will absolutely use Joe again!
I can never say enough positive things about Tia. She has watched my house and my dog several times and is always top notch. She is a great communicator and loves my dog. She takes care with my home and leaves things in good order. I am appreciative of her and always feel comfortable entrusting her with my dog and my home.
Lizzie is the absolute best! We have an old dog set in her ways who takes medications throughout the day and Lizzie is great with her. She gives us prompt feedback morning and night and sends cute pictures and videos. We are so grateful for the peace of mind while we’re away. Our pup loves her visits! 🐕

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 Mococo 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 Mococo 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 Mococo 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.
