“Janet did an excellent job dog sitting with our dogs. We have one with high anxiety and one with high energy and she jumped right in and worked with us and their needs. She is very professional and friendly!”
About: I’ve had animals in my house for basically my whole life. I grew up with all kinds of animals in my home. I’ve gotten puppies that I had to train, and even older dogs that needed a refresher. I’ve always had birds, cats, and dogs! I’m available full-time and I will always try my best to accommodate your needs! Animal care comes first and I will make sure your pet gets everything they need while you’re away. I will always give 100% and treat your baby like my own. I will be respectful and responsible when in your home. I’ll follow any directions you give about how to care for your furry friend :)
About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy spending time with pets of all personalities and sizes. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I’m committed to providing patient, attentive, and loving care. I started pet sitting in college and have loved every experience since! I now have pets of my own—a cat named Cream Soda and a dog named Rocky—which have given me even more experience and appreciation for caring for animals. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from just a few months old to seniors, and I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m excited to meet new furry friends and give them plenty of love, attention, and care! I’m currently finishing my master’s program and have an internship during the day, so my pet care availability is primarily in the early mornings and evenings. On weekends, I’m available throughout the day unless my schedule is already full—I’ll always make sure my availability is up to date so I never overbook. I love going on morning and evening walks, adapting to each pet’s routine, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care! 🤍 I have a good-sized yard in town with walking trails nearby, which makes it easy to get outside and enjoy some fresh air and exercise. I also love exploring Ramsey Park with my dog, Rocky, and would be happy to explore more trails and adventures with other dogs, when permitted! I’m comfortable staying at clients’ homes after meeting beforehand and discussing expectations, routines, and any specific needs. I’m also happy to welcome pets into my home. I do have a Husky, Rocky, who is very energetic and loves making new friends, as well as an orange cat who is comfortable around other animals. As long as everyone gets along and feels comfortable together, I’d be more than happy to welcome your furry friends into my home and give them plenty of love, attention, and exercise! 🐾🤍
About: Do you need someone to watch your best friend while you are away? Do you have an upcoming event and no one to care for your little fur baby? Do you work long days and need someone to take your pup out for potty breaks? Let me do it!! I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember And I finally moved to a place where I can take full advantage of unlimited puppy kisses, cuddle puddles and puppy playtime! My doggies enjoy running around the backyard and playing fetch with me or my sons. Treats? Tricks? I've taught my dogs, I can try to work with yours too. Colette is my name, loving doggies is my game! I work full time for Cedar Mountain Schools right now and my schedule is pretty regular but there is someone home at our house every day and I don’t work in the summer. I have a fenced in yard for running around and playing. I think all dogs should be allowed on the furniture because they are a part of the family too!
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for family and friends over the years and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. I’ve learned the importance of being dependable, patient, organized, and attentive to individual pets needs. Whether it’s keeping your pet company, following their routine, or making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I work a unique schedule that gives me seven consecutive days off every other week. During those weeks, I have plenty of availability for house sitting and can dedicate my time to caring for your pets and maintaining their normal routine. I’ll make sure they receive the attention, companionship, and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and provide dependable care while you’re away. I’ll keep your home clean, follow any instructions you leave, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Morton 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 Morton 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 Morton 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
