“Selina took excellent care of our two dogs while we were out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. All care instructions were followed, and the dogs appeared very happy and comfortable around her. Medical issues were handled extremely well too. Thanks again, Selina!”
About: Cat and dog loving mother of 4 with tons of pet care experience. I have a German shepherd and a balck and white cat named oreo. I offer love and cuddles. I'm availabke to drop ins mostly. I can stop by multiple times a day and give your best friend the love they deserve in their own home. I have a fenced yard with lots of toys. I spend time playing with your pet so they can socialize and not be so stressed out that you are gone.each animal I've watched has bonded with me.
About: I have had our family dog for 14 years and he’s still with us happily. I also had many other dogs come in and out of our household along with cats for a few months then find loving homes for them. I don’t take photos unfortunately due to me finding myself in the moment and often don’t even think about taking a picture. What makes me different from other pet sitters is my natural ability to connect with animals. I’ve always been able to befriend most pets I meet by matching their energy, understanding their personalities, and making them feel comfortable around me. Whether a pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid-back, I adapt to their needs and build trust with them. I treat every animal with patience, love, and respect, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Being in the military. I have been trying to find something on my off time. I figured why not spend my time having fun taking care of animals and taking some of your worries away while you’re away. I am available throughout the weekends and mostly during the day as well. I take your pet’s care seriously by following your instructions closely and asking questions about their health, habits, and daily routine. I want to understand their unique needs so I can keep them happy, safe, healthy, and comfortable while you’re away.

Jennifer was very communicative and professional. She let us know when she arrived and kept us posted about our beloved dog! She followed the details I left and she left the house in the same condition! I was so happy to have such a caring and responsible house and dog sitter! I would highly recommend her!!!
I am so glad I went with this pet sitter!! I have 2 dogs and a cat all with different care needs and she went above and beyond to make sure each one’s needs were met. She communicated consistently with me and sent me photos everyday. My pets absolutely LOVED the sitter evident by the pictures sent! I highly recommend her! She will be my first choice for future booking!

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 North Pole 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 North Pole 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 North Pole 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.
