Susana was amazing! Our three pets can sometimes be a little shy, but they warmed up to her very quickly. She kept in touch with us sending lots of pictures which we really appreciated. She even vacuumed. The house was very clean when we got home. Highly recommended!

Brandi is absolutely a treasure, we are so grateful to have her as our puppy caretaker while we are away. Our puppies absolutely love her! Our Bailey is very shy and a bit skittish, but Brandi has won her over with her kind and sweet demeanor. We always know our pups are in great hands when Brandi is here with them. 🐾🩷

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was born and have lots of experience providing care for many ages, behaviors, and disabilities. Over the last few years, I have aided with foster dog care, and while it can be challenging, it is very rewarding. Over the last few years, I have seen seniors, puppies, and pregnant dogs come through the home, and I always try to provide the best care I can while trying to find homes that are a good fit! I am working a part-time job at Carthage College and have ample time to help provide care. During the weekdays, I am quite flexible with my availability. On weekends I have lots of flexibility as well in order to provide ample support and care for pets. I am very active, so I am more than willing to provide walks and activities for your pup! If your dog needs medication, I am able to administer it when needed. I can also provide time outside and around the home if the dog must be in a crate.

About: I have been pet sitting for over twelve years now and love to doing it!! I am also a certified kennel assistant, and have been working at a dog kennel for three years now, caring for a wide variety of dogs, and learning all there is to know about dogs, ranging from the vet tech side of things to daily living. I also have two dogs of my own so I know just how much they become a part of your family, which is why loving and competent care is so important for them! I cannot wait to meet and love on your fur babies :) I’m currently working part time so have more than enough time to play and love on your pups! I am able to do three visits during the day and am more than willing to spend the night with them as well! If there are a couple days during the week that I do not work at all I would love to spend the entire day with your pup(s)! I am more than willing to care for your dog in your home however they are most comfortable! Whether that be crate training, daily walks/runs or just good quality time and cuddles on the couch :)

About: Hi I’m Josie and animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I currently work in the boarding department at a veterinary clinic, where I care for dogs and cats by feeding, administering medications when needed, monitoring their health and behavior, cleaning kennels, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable during their stay. I’m also attending school to become a veterinary technician, which is expanding my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and proper care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I currently work in the boarding department at a veterinary clinic and am attending school to become a veterinary technician. My schedule allows me to provide reliable pet care before or after work, on weekends, and during many weekdays. I’ll always communicate my availability in advance and make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Because I work in a veterinary clinic, I have experience recognizing changes in behavior and caring for pets with different needs. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines you provide. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pet like one of my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

We booked Jason for house sitting with our dog who has separation anxiety and does not do well in a boarding environment. Jason is great with our dog! Jason came into our house and our dog immediately migrated to him. Jason provided ample walks and gave our dog personalized attention. His wife Emily is also a dog sitter on this site and she has watched our dog too! She is also amazing! We will only be using their services for our dog! We love the husband and wife team!

Overall things went well. Dogs were not stressed when we arrived home after she dogsat our three dogs for two nights. She also swept the floors before leaving (which is something we said she didnt need to do as we know the Huskys cause explosions). My only thing would be communication, the inital communication was great, I wish she had communicated a bit more for our meet and greet as she was late, which is fine as she was at work but I had to be the one to reach out to find out what was going on. I also wish there was inital communication upon arrival and final communication when leaving. Even an overall on how the dogs were/how things went when she left for the final time. The dogs seemed happy though when we returned and that is my biggest concern, and im sure is the same for others.

About: I volunteer at a dog shelter that deals with all ages and comfortably around new people. This allows me to pick up on dogs needs and adjust accordingly. I am currently working full time 4 days a week. This allows me a more flexible schedule to help take care of dogs through the week and weekends. I have experience with dogs that bolt when doors are opened outside and know how to block them properly. When helping with potting breaks they can be play breaks to get rid of excess energy. I have experienced teaching dogs to walk on a leash with and without a harness.

Amber is amazing, she came over and our dogs took to her immediately. Our oldest puppy can be a little challenging due to her being skittish, but Amber’s personality and energy helped ease her nervousness. Very reliable, and was able to help us out on short notice. I HIGHLY recommend!

About: My name is Michele. I'm 52. I live in the village of palmyra For many years, I have owned dogs and cats. The majority have been rescues that are special needs. I have also fostered dogs till they are fit for a forever home as well as worked with the local animal hospital to take care of sick dogs till they are ready to go up for Adoption. I also have experience with asthma, chemo and diabetic treatments. I have one dog at this time. He is a 9 years-old Papillon Poodle that is 10 lbs. He is great with other dogs and would be going with me wherever i go. I have sat for families in Illinois ( where I used to live) when they would go out of town as well as stop in visits. I have lived here for 13 years now in Wisconsin and have sat for well over 100 families. My services includes play time, regular car rides, walks or runs, sleep in beds, play time and rarely left alone. I would love to hear about your loved one and how I can help you. Lots and lots of play time! Morning playtime then rest and snuggle time. In the afternoon its back outside. They do go home tired and ready to snuggle! All pups are vaccinated and Poop is cleaned up outside. It's like a dog park experience but safe. Inside the floors and kennels and water fountain are cleaned daily.

Finally! We have found the perfect cat and house sitter. Terri did an amazing job taking care of both while we were gone for 2 weeks. Our house was just as clean as I left it (I am a little OCD when it comes to that) and our little ball of fur was happy. Terri sent pictures daily and updated us each day with how Callie was doing. You could tell from the pictures our kitty was relaxed and comfortable with Terri. I would highly recommend Terri to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member and home. She is amazing!!

I couldn’t be happier with the care our three small dogs received from Abigail! They were clearly loved and well looked after — happy and relaxed when we returned. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. Our dogs can be a handful, but they were calm and content thanks to the patient, attentive care. Absolutely a **5-star experience** — we’ll definitely be booking again!

Brandi is fantastic!!! I always have a relaxing and worry free time when away knowing she is home with our two dogs. I especially love the notes she takes that includes walks, eating, water and more. We even have a skittish and more challenging dog that has really warmed up her. I highly recommend!!!

Brandi is outstanding, I highly recommend! She is always sweet and kind to both our adorable furry family members. Our two dogs are medium sized and one is extremely shy. Brandi is patient and always wins them both over with her special touch and love. Did I also mention how reliable she is? I am always grateful knowing she is at home with our dogs while traveling.

FAQs for House Sitting - Potter Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Potter Lake on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 1,411 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Potter Lake. 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 Potter Lake 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 Potter Lake 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 Potter Lake 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
