“She provided an exceptional dog sitting/care for my dog Zora while I was in Chicago. She stayed on top with texting me updates with her feeding and daily walks. So happy for my dog Zora to be at the comfort of her own home while I was gone! Highly recommend Lizette (Toni Jo) for your pet’s care!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 10 years. I am always open to learning new routines and meeting different types of breeds. I have experience with puppies, older dogs and even medically fragile dogs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure their cups are full before leaving them. Dogs have such big feelings and deserve to be loved like humans (if not even more) I am an early riser and currently have open availability. My weekends are pretty much open and I make sure to always put the animals first then my own plans. I cannot care for pets at this time in my own home, but I will be willing to travel/stay at their homes in order to keep them safe & comfortable.

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs. Every time I go and dog sit for a relative I always let them know they’re free to stay out longer because I’m probably already in love with your animal. I’ve always taken good care of my dogs and cats and other peoples dogs and cats. I treat dogs as family and just like they’re people. Whatever rules you will leave for me I will follow step by step and leave the dog just how it was before i arrived. Giving a dog company is a very important aspect because dogs need loving and attention just as much as we do. I feel that I am a great applicant for a dog sitting job because I am able to take care of the dog, feed the dog, and give the dog plenty of attention. However, after I leave, your dog will experience extreme sadness for the reason being he’s just had to part with his new best friend. I’m currently in college at JCTC part-time all online! Leaving my availability and attention wide open for your animal(s). I’m available all days of the week and all hours of the day. I’ve always found myself becoming a dog or cat’s best friend. That usually leads to me overcompensating for their needs. If an animal shows any sign of needing something I will literally always stop what I’m doing to make them happy. I just have that thing that animals love. My animals are always fed, always have a full water bowl, and always deserve treats for doing their duties. I’m also a people pleaser, so I’m understanding that different animals and families have different wants and needs and I’m always more than happy to meet those. At the end of the day I want to keep you and your family worry-free and feel 100% safe with me in your place of loving taking care of your alls pet(s).

About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on care for pets of all kinds. I offer pet sitting in my home or yours, boarding, and dog walking. We treat every animal like our own, and pets truly love their time here. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as cats and even reptiles of all types. Your pets will be safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away!! I am available for overnights on the weekends when I am not at work so I have more time to dedicate to your sweet pet. I care for pets in my home and in my clients’ homes by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I feed pets according to their usual schedule and diet, provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I carefully follow any instructions given by pet parents, including medications, special needs, or training preferences. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and feeling at home while you’re away.
“I highly recommend Casey to care for your fur babies! We traveled out of town and she went over and beyond caring for our 16 year old Sadie. Casey is super clean and very polite. Knowing Sadie was being looked after by Casey provided such a wonderful trip to see our family. I can’t wait to have Casey come back for our next trip.”
About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats my entire life both personally and with family and friends! I love animals and know how stressful it can be finding pet care! Im on a travel contract in Lexington, KY from 11/12 to 2/14! I can provide over night care on Friday and Saturday nights if I know in advance and can do nightly walks or check ins after 6pm during the week! Currently can’t board pets at my place of residence right now but am open to check ins, walks, and staying at your place depending on needs!
“Jordan was able to watch our babies on short notice due to an unexpected family tragedy and we are so grateful for her! She made sure to give meds and do all the other things we asked of her. We will definitely want to work with her again!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience working with my own and others' dogs, including 5 years of professional experience at a doggy daycare and a local rescue. I've cared for dogs of every age, breed, and temperament — including dogs other sitters have called aggressive. My own reactive lab/weimaraner mix taught me to read body language and keep dogs comfortable in any situation, and I'm now a professional dog trainer. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, your dog's routine gets followed exactly and they're treated like my own. Open and flexible mornings, evenings, and weekends, holidays all work. Recurring drop ins, walks and overnight stays welcome. Last minute requests okay with quick confirmation. I will help to maintain the boundaries you have set for your household and I am comfortable working with all different pets. If there is a specific routine you have set up for your house I will abide by it.
“Penny was excellent with the full day care of our two dogs, one being blind. She sent numerous pics throughout the day . Carried our blind dog out to go and walk outside a bit, played with our GSD. We will definitely use her again, she is a professional and very caring.”

About: Got my first dog at age 10, an English Bulldog named Buster. A few years later I got my second dog, a poodle mix named Tucker. Been employed to take care of several other breeds/ages by family and friends! I am a college student and have a pretty flexible schedule besides a few spread out classes! I will do whatever I can to accommodate all pets needs! I love all things pets! I am willing to work with whatever their needs may be. Whether that be a high energy pup or a lazy one!
About: Something that sets me apart from other sitters is my versatile background interacting with and caring for a wide range of furry friends — from dogs, to cats, to bunnies, to birds! I also have my own 3 year old golden retriever, who has taught me the responsibilities that come with owning a pet, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and tons of affection of course! I promise that I can provide the utmost safe, playful, and friendly environment for your pet(s), and can’t wait to meet you! I’m currently a full time dental student, we works from 8-12 and 2-5. I am able to go home during lunch, and I am very close to the school, so it takes me 10 minutes max to get to and from the school! I’m available all weekends and week nights! I live with two other young girls, and we live on a safe culdesac with a completely fenced in backyard, and our yard backs up to a local park, which is perfect for games of fetch and quick walks! I am serious about leash safety, and always make sure other dogs are on leashes when interacting with my own dog.

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 Mount Eden 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 Mount Eden 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 Mount Eden 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
