“Miss Penny was so professional and personal right from the beginning. She took such great care of our pups and sent tons of pictures. I will absolutely ask Miss Penny to watch our doggos again, and I would recommend her to anyone confidently.”
“Our pup and kitty LOVE Kaelin!! We’ve had her pet sit for the past 2 Christmas breaks and she’s been wonderful. Our dog is very high maintenance (kidney issues, IBS, and he’s blind) and it’s such a relief knowing he’s well taken care of while we’re away.”
“Cody was amazing! It was his first time w our two dogs. One is a senior Pom mix on insulin and one is a puppy, Bernese Mountain dog. He came over twice before he was actually here staying at our house, for 1 week. Our dogs immediately loved him. We taught him how to give the shots to our senior dog and he did great! He kept in constant communication w texts and pics. We will get him again and continue to utilize him, as he was awesome!”
“Sarah was so great! She was on time and easy to book last minute. She was quick to respond to my crazy dog mom needy texts too. My dog Talulah is very nervous with people and Sarah was very accommodating to her nervousness. This was our first time using a dog sitter other than family and we will definitely contact Sarah again!”
“My pups had a great day with Nicole! I had a long day out of town - too long for my dogs to be alone all day. Nicole spent time playing with and loving on them. They’ve been snooza poloza since I got home! Nicole’s interactions with both of my dogs - even anxious Dexter - meant I could spend the day away with confidence because she’s so great with them. Thank you!”
“Miriam did the best job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. Miriam did a great job communicating, sending photos, updates, and left our home in fantastic condition. We have a senior dog with some anxiety, and Miriam was very experienced and understanding, which truly can’t express how much that’s appreciated. Would rebook with Miriam any time and suggest you to do the same!”
“Zach was such a blessing to us. He was so understanding and flexible with our needs and our old doggies and kitties love him. He was attentive and thorough with all our millions of instructions for taking care of our geriatric Great Danes with many health issues. He also took care of some things last minute for us that I had forgotten to do. It was such a relief to find someone we could trust to stay with our boys. Thank you Zach ❤️”
About: Hi, I’m Nina! I’ve been working in the pet industry for over 7 years, and caring for animals is truly second nature to me. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of pets with different personalities, needs, and medical requirements, and I always aim to provide calm, reliable, and attentive care. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines, including pets with special health needs. I also have experience caring for anxious pets and understand how important patience, consistency, and a calm environment are in helping them feel safe and secure. Whether I’m doing walks, drop-in visits, or in-home care, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making their time away from you as stress-free and comforting as possible. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your pets! I am available every day and can offer twice a day drop ins providing enough time for meals, medications (if needed), potty breaks and playtimes! You can expect reliability, respect for your home, and consistent updates so you always feel confident while you’re away. I will make sure your pet is safe and happy!
“Beth not only met my number one priority of attentive care for Oliver, but also went above and beyond other sitters I’ve gotten from Rover.com before. I felt so much peace of mind and am so grateful that I have a dog sitter that I can use for my next trip!”
“Rebecca was absolutely amazing with our pup, Murphy! She was extremely communicative each day that she was staying with her. She left our house clean and was very attentive to Murphy’s needs. We highly recommend Rebecca and will be happy to hire her again!”
“Marae was communicative, asked great questions and took care of our crew with no issues! Our dogs needs daily medications and have some household rules that are important to follow…she handled these things like a pro. We will absolutely book with her again in the future!”
“Had the most flawless experience with Abba from the beginning! She was so sweet and fun, and I felt 100% comfortable knowing she was taking care of my dog while I was out of town. She took such great care of my dog and even sent me pictures of them snuggling on the couch! My dog had so much fun and I highly recommend going with Abba. She is so amazing with pups but also extremely sweet and responsible ☺️”
“Shelly was absolutely terrific with our German Shepherd and many cats. She’s very communicative and sends a ton of pictures. Her being around gave us great peace of mind!”
About: My dad taught me how to train train dogs as a kid I was teaching them to get car tires out of trees potty trained them and also helped breed them end up doing it on my own had house full of 20 dogs at one point if time even the puppy’s became very intelligent right now I don’t do that anymore I have a very smart 2 year old rottie that I’ve trained since baby now his name Duke he loves baby’s & puppies !! Slots of times would be later in the evening or some days in the morning because im a full time athlete professional boxer so times will always be before or after I go to the gym I have extra big cage and big backyard for my dog and clients dogs to play in & based on clients that needed they dogs walked or company time the clients dog will get special love & excitement but my main priority is what the clients want & to fulfill their needs
“Abigail was so good with our pups!! She sent us updates along with videos and pictures of our happy dogs. She took great care of them while we were away and coming home to a clean home is always so nice. Highly recommend her services!”
“Rebecca was amazing! She was so patient and calm with my little guy. It took a bit for him to warm up. She didn’t bat an eye at all my requests or learning how to walk a cat. 😁 She sent daily updates with pictures. Rebecca stayed overnight for a week and I’m pretty sure she left the place cleaner than I left it. She even went the extra mile to stay a bit longer when my flight came in late and turned the lights on so I didn’t come home to a dark space. The little guy is happy, clean and healthy. I was able to really relax during vacation knowing everything was taken care of at home. I will definitely ask Rebecca to come stay again the next time I go out of town.”
“Gabby is great! She quickly helped us out when we needed someone for Bruno on a short notice. She is very responsive to messages and sends lots of photos. Bruno had a great time with her!!”

Hannah did an amazing job with our dog Otto. She was communicative, transparent and she really put my mind at ease about leaving him for the week. It’s a great feeling to find someone you can trust to stay with your pup. We will definitely re-book with her again in the future! Thank you Hannah for your compassion and care for our silly boy!
Jules was amazing with our two boxers, Rocky and Tyson. She was extremely attentive, sent us photos and kept us updated throughout the entire stay. The experience made us feel at ease knowing our home and babies were taken care of and in good hands. Will definitely be using Jules again!

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 Obetz 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 Obetz 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 Obetz 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!

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 .

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.
