“CAundra was wonderful with my dog. Margo requires special help due to some medical issues and it was no problem. Such a wonderful thing knowing someone is able to care for your dog while you’re away. She is responsive and sends pictures and was respectful of my home. Thank you!!!”
About: Hi! I am Laine. I am an aspiring Personal Trainer with a lifelong love for animals and a high-energy approach to pet care. Growing up in a home that was always welcoming new pets, I became comfortable around all types of personalities and species early on. While I am still building my professional toolkit in the world of formal training, I bring a massive amount of dedication, physical stamina, and a commitment to following your pets specific routines. Whether your dog needs a high-intensity walk to burn off energy or just an attentive companion while you’re away, I’m excited to provide a reliable and active environment for them. I’m currently in school so my schedule is extremely flexible with online classes and I work one day a week! I am early to rise and early to bed! I am extremely vigilant and highly trustworthy. My goal is to treat your home and pet like my own. I'm happy to provide regular photo updates so you can have total peace of mind.
“Mandy watched our two cats and two dogs for the holiday weekend and did a great job! Our dogs are very playful and she understood their needs and gave them lots of attention. Communication was excellent and I appreciated the photos while we were gone.”
About: I have 2.5 years of experience working as a Veterinary Assistant/Technician at a family owned animal clinic operated by a mother and son team. In my role, I assisted with patient care, administered medications as directed by veterinarians, monitored animals during treatments and procedures ,educated pet owners on proper care all awhile treating all animals like my own! I have experience working with dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals with special medical needs. My background in veterinary medicine allows me to recognize signs of illness or distress and provide attentive, compassionate care. I am dedicated to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently working part time during the summer and have 2 hour lunch breaks which gives me the time to walk or give your furry friends a potty break! I’m also free almost every weekend! I’m willing to be flexible to make sure your dog/cat is taken care of :) Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. With 2.5 years of veterinary assistant experience, I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including those with special needs. I follow each pet's routine closely, provide plenty of attention, and keep owners updated with photos and messages.
“Thankyou sooo much again harbor loved you! Nisa was able to provide us so much comfort in leaving our brand new adopted pup for the day !! Thankyou so much for coming and spending time with her and sending us pics throughout the day :)”
“Faith is absolutely wonderful!! My two dogs and cat adore her. That is saying a lot as one of my dogs is extremely anxious and scared of almost everyone. She takes excellent care of our fur babies. My only regret is she is leaving town this fall.”
“We had only a few days to find a sitter and Casey came to our rescue! Our babies loved her and she was super sweet to meet us, and our 2 girls, within 24 hrs after we requested a pet and house sitting. Also awesome to know that Casey's a vet tech and understands our needs of an older dog. Thanks again Casey! Definitely 5 stars! Randy, Denise, Delilah and Sammy 🐾🐶”
“Debbie and her family were a true blessing! She had a "meet and greet" with us and our 2 girl fur babies in our home. It was great to see the interactions between them. We went over pricing, the services she provides and what our expectations were as well for the care of the girls while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures and notes/texts from every visit to let us know our babies were doing great! It was such a huge relief to have someone like Debbie caring for and paying attention to our girls versus them being locked up in kennels at doggie daycare for 5 days. What a peace of mind! We would definitely recommend Debbie and her family again!”
“I can't recommend Misty highly enough! She was absolutely fantastic with my kitten, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect while I was away. She sent regular updates, photos, and even little notes about my cat's behavior, which brought me so much peace of mind. It was clear they genuinely cared, and my cat was so content and well looked after. I will definitely book with them again! - Very nice having someone Thai reliable in the area!”
“Linda was fantastic! She took care of our dogs and house while were away and updated us too. She was great with our dogs and we were happy to know they were being taken care of. She left the house in perfect condition and we appreciate being worry free during our trip.”

“Our pup has been real sick lately, leaving me worried about him home alone. Ingrid graciously babysat him for us all day and gave him his meds, which has gotten more difficult lately. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent lots of photos to help me relax lol she also managed to get him to let her check on a sore toe that he wouldn’t let me near! I would 100% recommend Ingrid.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Schulte on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 217 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Schulte. 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 Schulte 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 Schulte 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 Schulte 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.

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.
