About: I’ve worked with shelters taken care of up to a total 23 cats at a single time! Up to 15 dogs at a time As well! The love of my life are cats and dogs, so I know I would treat everyone’s animals as if they were my own! I have no limits in my schedule at the moment, so I can be available any day anytime to help take care of your furbabies! I always treat animals with the same dignity and respect that humans deserve. Fenced in yards are great for letting them let lose, but walks are also great for both parties to have a different view and experience. Feeding/Play time are both essential bonding time, as they build my trust, so I always make time to play and roll around with them at their level.

About: Let me paws to tell you a little about myself! ☺️🐾❤️ My name is Merri. Since 2019, I have been a professional pet sitter, dog walker, and house sitter. I am Fear Free certified and have completed a course in Pet First Aid & CPR. My goal is always to maintain safety and comfort for your babies, and I always have treats to share with the pets I care for. I have cared for small and large dogs, from the littlest Chihuahua with the biggest personality to the goofiest gentle giant Bernie. I love cats, and will care for them like my own! I have experience caring for birds, bunnies, hamsters, reptiles, and guinea pigs! Here are some of the services I provide: - Drop Ins & Dog Walks: 30 minute visits 🥰 - Medication Administration (Including insulin injections & subacute fluids!) 🩺 - House sitting & overnight care (Extended Stays also available!) 🏠 - Experience with seniors, puppies/kittens under one year old, special needs pets, and multiple pets. 🫶🏻 - Day Trips to local parks 🏞️ & the beach. 🏖️ - Free bath for overnight care clients! 🛁 - Plant care 🪴 & mail retrieval. 📫 - Light housekeeping 🧹 & errand running. 🛒 I know the stress that comes from leaving your loved one with a new sitter or walker for the first time, so I would be happy to schedule a free meet and greet! I have very flexible availability, as I am a Psychology and Pre-Nursing student, and will work with you in any way I possibly can, even on short notice. Caring for your pets will always be my number one priority. I will be flexible to meet your needs and work with your unique schedule. I work on fostering a trusting, caring relationship with my clients. I am an open book, and the safety and security of your pets and your home is something I place incredible value on. Transparency and honesty is incredibly important for both me and you. I will care for your babies as if they were my own, because they’re family to me! In return, I just ask for honesty if you have cameras indoors. If you have questions or need extra reassurance, I am here for you. I know it is stressful and scary to trust a stranger with your family member, so I value getting to know my clients and offer meet and greets prior to booking services! 😊

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing company, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. As a health and physical education teacher, I’m active, responsible, and used to maintaining routines and creating a safe environment. I’m available after work on weekdays, as well as evenings and weekends. During school breaks, holidays, and the summer, I have much more flexibility. I will always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, take them on safe walks, clean up after them, and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’ll also send photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Update: it’s been over a year since I started Rover and I’m loving it! I love all my regular customers and have met so many different dog breeds. I’ve also became a volunteer at a local animal rescue where I walk the dogs/ care for them. I’ve learned so much this last year and am even more confident with caring for your pet. I’ve loved dogs my whole life but could never own one due to allergies in my family. I’m now the proud owner of a three- year-old Large Breed Puppy! He’s been a handful, and from this experience, I’ve learned a lot about dogs and training. He’s reactive in certain situations, so because of this, I’m confident in walking your dog. I’m aware of how to handle dogs and be very alert to our surroundings. I love walking, running, and hiking and would be able to offer your dog any preference they have. I have a very flexible remote schedule that allows me to work around my time. I enjoy being active, so available for longer walks and nighttime hours as well. I will treat your dog as he is my own, filled with love, respect, treats if allowed and following your structure as much as possible. I work remotely so I have a very flexible schedule. 11-2:00pm is a tougher time but sometimes possible based on location. Available for later walks durning the summer hours I treat every dog with love and respect. I use only positive enforcement- so no angry tones or harsh words. I correct with love and positive encouragement. When your dog is in my care- they are officially my baby and I will treat/ advocate for them in every way!

“We asked Chelsea to watch our 2 cats and 2 dogs in our house due to our one dog having separation anxiety issues. Chelsea met with us prior to our vacation and met all our animals. She even came on a walk with the dogs, so she could see how they behaved. She did a great time and communicated with us during vacation to let us know our pets were doing well. She also sent pictures which we enjoyed so much. I highly recommend Chelsea for pet sitting!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pine Lake Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Pine Lake Park is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,450 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pine Lake Park. 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 Pine Lake Park 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 Pine Lake Park 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 Pine Lake Park 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pine Lake Park. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
