“Sara is wonderful! Easy to communicate with, sent me plenty of pictures that showed not only that my baby was doing well, but that she was being her normal self and doing her normal routines. If your pet is your family you can trust Sara will treat them that way!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with our pups! She kept us updated and informed. Not to mention she spoiled our bully rotten.I would highly recommend her if you want your pets cared for to help you have a stress free time away from home.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging in size from Chihuahuas to Labs, Dobermans & Boxers! I love being around dogs and making new furry friends! I am currently working from home so I am free throughout the day for walks and potty breaks! I am able to prioritize each pet as scheduled I am able to crate dogs if needed! Food and water will also be handled as needed for each pet. Any walks or daily activities can be done as well
About: I have been taking care of animals either on my own or with my siblings for as long as I can remember. I sit for one family very frequently. They rely on me to administer medicine, walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I love them like they’re my own. I am a hairstylist and I work 4-5 days a week but my hours are extremely flexible. My work is located in a very central area so I’d be able to let them out during the day as well. At the clients home I will do any task that is needed to keep the dogs happy and healthy. I would prefer watching the animals at the clients home only because I live in an apartment, but if for some reason I need to bring them to my hosue I have a super friendly cat that gets along great with all animals.
“We are so glad we found Eden on Rover.com! If you need a sitter, this is HER! She stayed at our home with our babies while we were on vacation. They were very well taken care of and she sent us pictures/videos each day we were gone! She also left the house even better than she found it. Thank you again Eden!”
“Briana picked up my last minute job and she was a livesaver! She did a fantastic job, communicated well and my animals liked her. It's such a relief to have a responsible pet sitter that I know I can trust! I would definitely love to hire her again and will highly recommend her.”
“We love love loved Rachel! My pups loved her, she was so amazing with them. Absolutely great communication!! So many photos and updates. We 100% will be booking Rachel again.”
About: I’ve always been around animals and naturally treat pets like family. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal behavior, especially with nervous, energetic, or stubborn pets lol. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m dependable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets attention instead of just “checking in and leaving.” I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and pictures. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to being active throughout the day and handling responsibilities that require consistency and attention. I can work around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication reminders, and playtime. I understand pets need stability and patience, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they get attention, exercise, and care instead of just being left alone. I also try to stay flexible for last-minute needs when possible. Cats have their own quiet, separate space where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed without needing to interact with dogs unless they’re comfortable doing so. I understand cats usually do best with calm environments, patience, and giving them space to adjust at their own pace. 🐱

Whether I have your pets in my home or yours, you will receive adequate communication and pictures so you can rest easy knowing that your pet is in good hands.

About: My Personal Approach & Passion for Pets My genuine love for animals is what drives my pet care style. I am patient, trustworthy, and naturally observant, making it easy for me to connect with pets of all temperaments. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a task; it is about providing a warm, low-stress environment where your animals feel entirely safe, happy, and treated like family while you are away. What Sets Me Apart:I offer a highly adaptive environment for all pets and life stages, including dogs, cats, and puppies. I easily handle the high energy and training support needed for playful youngsters, as well as the gentle comfort, slow pace, and strict medication schedules required for senior companion animals. I customize my daily routine to mirror yours, ensuring your pet enjoys a seamless transition with plenty of interactive play, cozy naps, and affection. Pet care is the main focus of my daily routine because I work from home full-time. This flexibility allows me to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks every 2 to 3 hours, and interactive playtime throughout the day. My weekly schedule is highly consistent, meaning your dogs, cats, or puppies will enjoy a reliable routine with plenty of companionship and zero long periods spent alone. I create a safe, pet-proofed environment where your dogs, cats, or puppies are treated like family. They have full access to comfortable resting spots, fresh water, and supervised play. I follow your exact feeding schedules, crate routines, and potty windows to keep their days consistent and stress-free. In Your Home (Drop-Ins/Sitting): I respect your space while prioritizing your pet's comfort. During visits, I handle feeding, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and administering any required medications. I make sure to include plenty of quality playtime or belly rubs, and I always send you photo updates so you know they are safe and happy.
About: For many years I've been the go-to choice for friends and family who needed a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter. Considering my life long love of animals big and small, Rover allows me to help pet owners find someone dependable to help care for their fuzzy friends. Whether caring for big playful dogs, proud wary cats, or even sensitive older pets my top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent. I work remotely which allows me to have plenty of freedom to care for pets during most people's work hours. The only weekdays that I'm typically unavailable are Fridays during the Fall season. I keep detailed notes for each client's preferences and instructions so that everything goes as smoothly as possible. My top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent so whatever rules and routines you already have in place for your pets will be maintained while I care for them.
About: I have about a couple of years of experience with dog sitting for my friend when she goes out of town. She has had two dogs in my ten years of knowing her. I love animals and I always want to protect them as well. I have been around dogs since I was a little toddler. I have a long history with caring for dogs. As I got older and was in more and more activities, my parents thought it wasn't a good idea to have a dog anymore. So I would just play with my friends dogs and that's how I kept up with my relationship with dogs. I would be a great sitter simply because I care about dogs and have a huge heart for them. I always want what's best for the dog.
“Naho was so sweet. She took great care of my cat and communicated with me daily. She went the extra mile to find things to do with my cat, making snacks for her and even made the cutest crochet hat for her! Love her!”
“Kasianay did an absolutely amazing job with our girl Mable. She was very professional and made sure to get any and all information she would need while house sitting for us. She did a great job keeping us up to date which left us feeling safe and comfortable. Our dog Mable always had a big smile in all the pictures she sent. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be requesting her again!”
About: I have experience with every pet you can think of! (Even exotic) Caring for animals is a passion of mine that I’ve had the privilege to do for many years and hopefully more to come.

About: I travel with my three children, ages 12, 9, and 8, so I believe in being upfront about our family from the start! What sets me apart is my experience caring for a variety of animals, my patience, and my attention to each pet’s individual needs. I have experience caring for small and large dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, reptiles, and other small pets ranging in age from 1 to 16 years old. I’m comfortable caring for both young and senior pets and understand that each stage of life comes with different needs, energy levels, and routines. I’m also experienced in administering medication using pill pockets and handheld pill shooters, following detailed care instructions, and helping pets feel comfortable in a new environment. I understand that some animals need extra time to warm up to new people, so I approach them with patience and respect for their boundaries. I work from home while homeschooling my children, which helps us maintain a structured routine while making time for the animals in our care. I’m attentive to details, take pride in keeping homes clean and organized, and believe communication is essential.

I work Monday through Friday from 5 PM to 1:30 AM EST, so I plan pet care around my work schedule and make sure each pet’s needs are met before, during, and after my shift.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 321 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Zion. 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 Mount Zion 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 Zion 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 Zion 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.
