“Hope is a delightful, caring, and attentive sitter. I was impressed with how in tuned and observant she was at our initial meet and greet to Buddy's overall physical health, demeanor and needs. Even before we arrived in Laguna Beach, Hope reached out to us to see if there was anything she could do beforehand to make Buddy and our visit stress-free and enjoyable. Buddy was very relaxed in her care and I had no hesitancy in leaving him in Hope's care. She is definitely an animal lover. Her focus will be on caring and loving your pet when she is with them. I highly recommend Hope and will definitely use her again when visiting the Laguna Beach area.”
“Kathryn is my go to person for dog and cat sitting at my home. People in the neighborhood say they see her walking my dog multiple times a day. My dog and cat clearly love her.”
About: I have walked and taken care of dogs my whole life. From Chihuahuas and Havanese to Newfoundlands and Sheepadoodles! I am comfortable with aggressive walkers and anxious dogs, and anything in between. I have also fostered and petsit cats, and have always lived with one. With cats, I am comfortable giving meds, grooming (and clipping nails), etc. In addition to cats and dogs, I owned ferrets for many years, and still petsit for them. I currently have a very flexible schedule that can accommodate any requirements—overnight stays, 3hr check-ins, weekdays, etc. I am very familiar with adjusting my schedule to the needs of the pet that I am caring for, and am happy to do so. I can’t offer services at my home, but I can easily drive to your pet. I feel comfortable with any routine: I can walk and/or feed multiple times a day, give medicine, groom, crate, and just be there if your pet just needs company.
“Fatima took great care of our dog Blue! We felt reassured being away with pictures and updates. Fatima is also very kind and accommodating, would definitely reach out again!”
“Coryn was incredible! She was trustworthy and our pup had a great time with her. We received lots of photos and updates while we were away. We’ve already booked her again. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Denise was AMAZING! She was so patient with my shy senior Nikita. The two of them bonded much quicker than I had anticipated and it made me so happy to know that my pup was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with Denise again as she’s become a member of Nikita’s circle! Thank you big time Denise - you are truly incredible.”
“Cleo was an amazing pup sitter and I HIGHLY recommend. Cleo stayed at my home for 5 days with my dog, Laika, and I felt completely assured the whole time. I came home to a clean house and a happy dog.”
“Jessi is great! This was my first time leaving my monsters alone and she was there with them the entire time which Im sure brought them comfort. She was great at sending updates as well! I am so grateful for her!”
“Molly did an excellent job watching our dog at our home. Our dog can be a handful, but Molly followed all our instructions to the letter and clearly knew what she was doing. She took great care of our house too. Everything was exactly as we left it when we got back. Communication was easy and reliable throughout the stay. I highly recommend booking with Molly. She will take great care of your pets and your home.”
About: I have had a dog my whole life and have enjoyed the constant love and company they provide. I love showing them my love and care and being part of their joy when we go on walks together. I hope to help others in need of a walker or sitter provide the love and care for their dogs that they deserve! I have had large to giant dogs and feel extremely comfortable with the size because all dogs are lovable once you get to know them. I have taken care of smaller dogs as well as medium dogs. My favorite thing is to go on walks and let them enjoy the open air and sniff all the new smells. There is so much to explore and every dog should have their opportunity to go on an adventure. I work a hybrid schedule throughout the week and have mid day availability. I am most available morning and evenings as well as most weekends. I live in a small house near the Arboretum and own a car that I can use for transportation. My services would be dog walking and home visits.
“Nichole is fantastic! Took great care of Riley girl and went above and beyond during a long business trip! I’ve had several dog watchers over the years and she may be the best! Trust her confidently with your pets!”
About: I've been walking dogs and house-sitting since high school. There's nothing I love more than getting outside, and having a dog by my side makes it even better. I'm also lucky to have a beautiful home with a fully fenced yard, so dogs of all ages and energy levels are welcome. Couch potato or high energy pup — there's space for both here. Your dog will be in good hands and treated like family. I have a flexible work from home schedule and will be able to accommodate your preferred walking routine. I love taking dogs in the car to explore new areas or I'm happy to walk them around your block. Morning, midday, or evening are all workable. For boarding, I am flexible in terms of drop-off or pick-up. Dogs are welcome to board any day of the week and for any length of time. I have a fenced in yard and lots of time to spend with your pet! Currently, there are no pets in the house, but the space really is perfect for it. There may be additions coming soon! In the meantime your pet will enjoy lots of attention and care. I am comfortable following any food, medication, or treat/training routine you are currently implementing. I keep my space very neat and tidy. If I am in your space, I will of course be respectful and do the same.
“Jordan was very communicative, willing to do a meet, and greet, and helpful with our dog’s medical needs while watching her. She provided frequent updates with pictures and gave us peace of mind while away. Thank you, Jordan!!”
About: I have taken care of family dogs since I was old enough to remember. I grew up with 2 shih tzu's at home, and they were my fiercest protectors. I have taken care of both senior dogs and puppies. I love caring for dogs (every size and breed!). I know how hard it is to leave your best friend behind, which is why my goal is to give you total peace of mind. Whether we’re out for a long walk or curled up on the couch, I promise to treat your pup with the same love and devotion I would give my own. You can enjoy your time away knowing they aren't just being watched—they’re being pampered, played with, and truly cared for. I’m currently working full-time (9 am-5 pm) Monday-Friday, so I would be perfect for a weekend or long weekend coverage. I am available Fridays after 4:30, and typically all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I am also open to staying during the weekdays as long as your pet does not need to be taken out in the middle of the day. I can have pets in my apartment so I am available for boarding! And, I would be more than happy to do home-stays or quick drop-ins for walks and feeding!
“Theia was great! Very flexible, accommodating for our reactive dog, and took great care of our kitties, too. We appreciated the pictures and communication we got while we were away. Would definitely hire Theia again!”
About: I am a licensed veterinary nurse that lives in Ann Arbor and works full time in a specialty hospital. I have 10 years of experience working in veterinary medicine and have owned cats and dogs my whole life! I have fostered over 50 dogs and love all dogs and cats regardless of breed, size, temperament, health conditions - nothing will scare me away! I can medicate dogs, exercise them how they please, I can stay on top of potty training, and I am capable of the high maintenance care some of our senior pups require. *must be a smoke-free home for overnight stays I work Tuesday through Friday 8am-6pm and I can come home on my lunch break if needed and if your home is within 15 minutes of my work place. I have been on the other side of Rover before, so I understand how stressful it is to find the right sitter and how nerve wracking it can be to trust a stranger with your fur baby! I will care for and love your pets as if they are my own. I will follow all house rules (no dogs on the furniture,etc) and respect your home as if it is my own. I can assure you that you will come home to the way you left it. I will never leave your pet for longer than I have to (when I am at my full time job) and will honor the schedule we agree on. I will always send photo updates if you please! I hope it gives you peace of mind leaving your pet with me given my background and career!

Caroline was great! She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we got home, the house was spotless, and it was obvious our pets had been well cared for. They seemed so happy and comfortable with her. This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will absolutely be booking with Caroline again. Highly recommend!

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 Saline 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 Saline 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 Saline 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
