About: I have grown up with big dogs since I was little as well as 2 cats! I’ve been with huskies and pomskies as well as labradors and shepherd dogs! I can take care of high energy and low energy dogs! I love cats as well! I know their temperament and how to approach them! My friends have had pit bulls which I do not discriminate against! I have helped with raising puppies and taking care of sick dogs, I promise to treat your pet with the utmost respect and care as if they were my own child! I am working part time at Starbucks and I work on Wednesday’s Thursday's and Sunday's, other than that I have morning classing Monday-Friday and I am good! I do online school so my schedule is very flexible for leaving in the mornings, and sometimes afternoons! At my home we have a big back yard and it is fenced in, we let our animals inside the house as well as outside, I don’t do pet care in my home because we have 4 big dogs and two cats and that would just be stressful on our dogs and cats as well as the dogs or cats I’m taking care of!

About: I've been caring for animals for many years and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior pets with medical conditions that require close monitoring. My experience includes administering medication, maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring behavior changes, and providing patient, compassionate care. I have experience caring more multiple pets in the same household and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routines while their owner is away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving the owners peace of mind through reliable communication and updates. I treat every pet like my own and take pride in providing dependable, trustworthy care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I build my schedule to ensure I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I understand the importance of consistency, so I make it a priority to follow each pet's routine and provide reliable care throughout the day. Whether its a drop-in visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I am committed to making sure pets are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In my home. pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, and a clean, pet-friendly environment. I take time to play with them, monitor their behavior, and make sure they are comfortable throughout their stay. In a client's home, I follow all care instructions closely to keep pets on their regular routine. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication as needed, and providing companionship. I also make sure the house is respected and left cleaned while keeping pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can have a peace of mind while away.
“Lauren was a delight! She watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat for 2 weeks while we were away! She took care of all our animals very well ell and sent many pictures each day. She was accommodating to the doggies routine and even extended watching the animals on short notice when our flight home got delayed. Will definitely reach out when we need pet sitting again.”
“Brooke was amazing with our doggies over the weekend! Our dogs have behavioral and medical needs, and she was extremely attentive and patient to both. We returned from our trip to a clean home and happy pups. She was also extremely communicative the whole time, sending us pictures and updates! I would book with Brooke again and highly recommend her for all your pet and housing needs!”
“Juan was great! He came to my house last minute while my husband was in the hospital and stayed with Bacon for us. He took great care of our baby. He actually had him come back the next day to help again.”
“Grace is the simply the best! I completely trusted her with our dog Millie, which is HUGE! Grace had great communication with me, I got daily updates and I even came home to printed out pictures of Millie. I didn't worry once about how well millie was being taken care of which was such a relief. 100% recommended Grace”
“Abigail was the best dog/house sitter that I could have asked for. My dogs and cats loved her. My house was tidy when I got home. Will definitely use her again and again. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve raised my 2 senior dogs from puppies. My family has relied on me to watch their fury babies. Where I provide walking, play time, feeding, bathing, and tons of love. I currently work 3 days a week Sunday,Monday, and Tuesday graveyard shifts in an elderly community. I’m available every morning and Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. I have a fenced yard, two fury Chihuahua friends to keep your loved ones company. Who are potty trained and crated trained with feeding schedules.
“Paloma was so wonderful - my cat loved her! Our cat is a bit high maintenance and needs a lot of attention, sometimes acts out, and is happiest when the sitter can stay at our place with her. Paloma was so attentive and really met all of her needs. She sent updates with photos and made us feel so at ease that our cat and our home were in good hands. Came home to a happy cat and clean house. Would recommend Paloma highly to anyone!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give Mara ten stars, I wouldn’t hesitate. Mara spent an entire in-home week, here. We, my family, have not gone on a vacation in years. We live in the country with 4 dogs, 4 parrots, a group of parrotlets, an old german owl pigeon named Hootie, 2 Sulcata tortoises, 3 aquariums, 1 Honey bunny, & a small flock of free range bantam chickens. I explained all of this to Mara prior to our meet and greet & gave her every opportunity to “run for the hills,” so to speak. To my surprise, she wanted to meet with me. Mara was more than willing to put in the extended period of time needed for our meet and greet. She welcomed the learning experience & embraced the challenges of what it takes to care for our multi species family. I was particularly concerned in regards to our parrots (Eclectus, African Grey, Dusky Pionus & Blue Crown Conure). I was worried Mara would find them intimidating. I was worried about her level of confidence, handling them & meeting their emotional needs in our absence. I had nothing to worry about. Mara asked tons of questions, and I watched her interact with them. With her positive energy, they accepted her almost immediately. And, with all of the feeding, I did my part to help set her up for success. Our dogs absolutely adored her & Mara adored them. She let them sleep with her like we do! She spent time with all of our companions. Throughout the week, she sent pictures that reassured me it was ok to have fun void of home worries. Mara has such a great disposition & attitude. She’s so positive and upbeat. Because of her, I DID enjoy a week off. She did such a great job for all of our companions. And, she kept up with the house & kept it clean. I cant imagine ever hiring anyone else to care for our large crew. I would highly, highly recommend Mara to anyone. She takes pride in her work & in the happiness and wellbeing of those left in her care. I am grateful beyond words. Thank you so so much for all of your above and beyond Mara!”
“Savanah did an amazing job dog sitting for us! She went above and beyond. Her communication was great with several photos being sent on a daily basis. Our two dogs loved her! She will be our go to dog sitter every time and we will recommend her to all our family and friends.”
“Colton was incredibly responsive from the moment of booking to updates and everything in between. He took care of our crazy pack and we are so thankful for such a great dog lover. His communication is top tier and it’s clear he wants to do whatever is best for our cherished family members. He was very accommodating to make our schedule work and spend the most time with our dogs. Looking forward to using his services again!”
“I highly recommend Stephanie to care for your pets. She is kind, reliable, and an excellent communicator. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were in her care. They were happy, well cared for, and we would absolutely love to have her back in the future.”
About: I have owned diabetic dogs and one with epilepsy. Friends and coworkers always ask me to watch their furbabies because they know how good my husband and I are with our own. They trust us and coming from someone who rarely traveled and when I did I took them with me because I don't trust others would take care of them like I do. I understand the anxiety that comes with having to leave them behind for whatever reason. Knowing they will be loved and have fun makes it that much easier for both you and your pet. Safety and security are also most important to us so rest assured they will be okay. I'm a stay at home mom and my husband's business is from home so we are both always here. We never leave for more that 3 hours due to our 2 dogs. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around. My brother also lives across from me and has over an acre of running room as well if needed. My husband and I work from home and are always available. We used to have dogs with medical issues and couldn't really leave them with anyone. My husband and I love animals and know how hard it is to leave them anywhere. Even at petsmart hotel they stay inside a small area and the play area isn't that big. We work from home and are never away longer than 4 hours. We have a 2 year old who is really good with the dogs as well but Rest assured we never let her play with them unattended. We have a large yard for dogs and know that they will be taken care of and loved while visiting us. All pets need love and attention. Even pet hotels leave them alone overnight and the thought of them having to hold it or use it in their space to feel ashamed is aweful. With us you get peace of mind and that's priceless In my home they will be treated like our own. They can play outside as long as they want. They scratch on the door ahead. They want in or out. They sleep inside on our bed with us of course. We want them to sleep wherever they feel comfortable. My dog buddy sleeps in his cage when he stays with others because he feels safe there so we understand everyone is different.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rio Communities North on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Rio Communities North 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 Rio Communities North 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 Rio Communities North 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.
