“Aaliyah took good care of our two dogs and two cats for a weekend stay. She handled the extra challenge of getting the dogs out over two days of nonstop rain. We appreciate her efforts. She also provided regular updates on the pets.”

“This was my first experience booking with rover, and it was a great experience! Emily was amazing!! She did overnights in my home for 23 days! She took great care of my cats and bird. From the first meet and greet, my cats gravitated towards her. The cats are younger, less than a year old, and this is the first time I was going to be away from them for an extended period of time. Emily definitely put my mind at ease. She was very pleasant and professional. She truly enjoys being around animals and mine truly enjoyed her. She communicated with me frequently and sent pictures & videos of them often. They were all so happy and well taken care of. She even befriended my temperamental, old, little parrot and he was sitting on her shoulder by the end of her stay. I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs. I already have her booked for a future stay!”

“I have so many great things to say about Analia and I probably won’t fit them all in this review, but I’m going to try. My partner and I were going on a cross country road trip for two weeks and found ourselves in need of a sitter for our two dogs the day we were supposed to leave for our trip. Before we even met, Analia left an incredible impression. She was compassionate, understanding, and flexible. She agreed to watch our dogs and stop by less than 12 hours before we had to leave. Our dogs are still young and in training, and for some people they can be a bit overwhelming. Analia was not phased at all by this, and from our first interactions, I could tell she was going to give just as much love and attention as we would. She had already looked over our care instructions and remembered facts about them, but she really took it a step further by asking how she could continue their training (something that means a lot to us, but we don’t always expect of others because it can be challenging; we were floored by her thoughtfulness and generosity). We left town feeling so secure having Analia taking care of our dogs. Analia continued to exceed expectations throughout our trip. She very intentionally sent updates, photos, and videos nearly every day, was super flexible when we ran out of food because our shipment didn’t come in, and went out of her way to bring our dogs new toys. When our arrival back home was delayed, Analia was incredibly accommodating and watched the dogs for a couple extra days despite it being last minute and her already having other plans. I feel so lucky to have been connected with Analia, not only because she was a great sitter for our dogs, but because she is such a kind and compassionate person, and was someone I thoroughly enjoyed talking to throughout our trip. She truly is a gem, and someone we will continue to trust our dogs with. If you take anything away from this review, it is that you should end your search here and choose Analia, because you will not regret it.”

About: Hi, I’m DeAndre—a professional, dependable dog walker and sitter serving Tallahassee. I specialize in providing structured, attentive care for pet owners who value consistency, communication, and peace of mind. I maintain a full-time professional schedule (8–5), which allows me to focus on high-quality early morning, evening, and weekend care—ideal for busy professionals who need reliable support outside standard hours. I was a dedicated dog owner for many years. My dog Dutchess was with me from 2011 until she passed in October 2023. She was exceptionally patient, kind, and loving. While I’m not ready to own another dog just yet, caring for other pets genuinely fulfills that same sense of purpose and connection. I trained Dutchess from 6 months old, giving me a strong foundation in consistency, behavior awareness, and positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable reinforcing routines and helping dogs build good habits in a calm, structured environment. What’s my schedule like: • Professional, punctual, and highly reliable • Clear, consistent communication with photo updates • Calm, patient approach tailored to each dog’s personality • Focus on safety, structure, and trust Services: • Dog walking (morning & evening availability) • Drop-in visits (feeding, enrichment, check-ins) • Weekend and overnight sitting My goal is simple: to provide a safe, dependable experience for your pet—and complete peace of mind for you. I’d be glad to connect and care for your dog as if they were my own. I care for pets with a balance of structure, patience, and genuine attention. I make sure each pet feels safe and comfortable by sticking to their routine, following instructions closely, and paying attention to their individual personality and needs. I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and creating a calm environment so pets can relax and be themselves. I’m also very observant—I pay attention to behavior, energy levels, and any changes that might need attention. Whether it’s making sure they get enough exercise, giving them affection, or simply being present, I treat every pet with the same level of care and respect as if they were my own. My goal is always to make both the pet and the owner feel at ease.

“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”

About: I have grown up walking dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, and in the recent year have taken my services to other community members as well! I have had cats my whole life and am more than familiar with their care as well! I am a full time grad student during the school year, and am on summer break with a very open schedule! I only work part time, so I am ready and available to be at your service! I have a very watchful eye and will be more than attentive to your pet! Their safety and well-being is my top priority always, as well as your comfort as the owner!
About: Apart from taking care of my own dog with epilepsy from ages 14-18, I worked as a dog walker in NYC at My Dog Hikes. While working at My Dog Hikes, I walked dogs, pet sat, and took them to the van for a day long excursion in up state New York. My schedule is increasing free these days after my graduation from Florida State University. I teach guitar lessons at Mason's School of Music one day a week, and would love to fill this time with animal interaction. I am an avid exercise enthusiast and would take them to the parks for walks or runs. When I care for a pet, I pay attention to what the pet is needing at that moment. It is easy to acknowledge and address these signs while doing other things around the house. I am able to take dogs out very easily to our backyard with a leash. When I am in a client's home, I am respectful of the space and leave everything exactly as they left it. I was required to do this in Manhattan often. I would receive a client's house keys and walk their dog while they were at work.
About: Hi! I’m Konnor, and I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet lover who would love the opportunity to take care of your furry family members! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away. I have experience caring for my own dog, as well as my parents’ dogs and cats. I’ve also cared for dogs and a cat belonging to family friends, so I’m comfortable getting to know different pets and their individual personalities and routines. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets and become someone you can count on! I have a pretty flexible schedule, which allows me to spend quality time with your pets rather than simply stopping by and rushing off. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, drop-in visits, and lots of love and attention. I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine to help them feel as comfortable as possible My dachshund is on a pretty normal schedule, but I prefer to go to my clients home to help feed, walk, and play with the dogs!
About: Hi! I’m a Registered Veterinary Technician with over 20 years of experience caring for pets. Your pet will be treated like family in my home, with plenty of love, attention, and knowledgeable care. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including seniors and those needing medications or extra care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands! 🐾❤️ I’m a stay at home mom at the moment, so I have all kinds of time to focus on your animals while you’re away. As well as being a mom to our teenage daughters, we also have 3 four legged boys of our own. We have a fenced in yard, and 3 fur babies of our own to keep your pet company. When your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family—not just another booking. I provide a safe, loving, comfortable home environment with plenty of attention, affection, and care. I know leaving your pet can be stressful, so I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and a strong understanding of their needs, which makes me a great pet sitter. I’ve had experience caring for a variety of pets, and I always make sure to provide personalized care for each one. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to connect with animals on a deeper level, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I’m especially patient and attentive when working with puppies, senior pets, or animals with special needs. I’m skilled at recognizing behavioral cues, which allows me to train puppies and provide gentle care for senior pets to keep them healthy and happy. My compassionate nature and dedication to their well-being really shine through in the care I give. Pet care fits into my routine by allowing me to balance my college schedule with taking care of pets. I make time for walks, feeding, and play between classes or in my free time. My flexible schedule lets me provide pets with the attention they need without interfering with my studies or other responsibilities. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure to create a comfortable and safe environment for them. I ensure they have fresh food, clean water, and plenty of space to play and relax. I stick to any routines or instructions provided by the pet owner, whether it’s feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, or special care needs. I also make time for walks, playtime, and cuddling to give them attention and affection. In a client’s home, I’m mindful of their space and maintain cleanliness, ensuring the pet feels at ease while the owner is away.

“We absolutely loved Carolina! She was communicative, sent lots of photos and updates, and took wonderful care of our two cats and our home. She even went above and beyond by taking care of the litter boxes, even though we told her she didn’t need to. She’s incredibly trustworthy, and we had complete peace of mind while we were away. We can’t wait to book with her again!”

“Christian did an awesome job and was very communicative. It was a very stress free experience for both us and our cat allowing us to really enjoy ourselves. Would highly recomend to others!”

“Kate was absolutely amazing! We found her as a last minute sitter and could not have been happier or felt more comfortable leaving our pup with her. If you are ever in need of a sitter who cares deeply about your animal, has great communication, and is trustworthy, I highly recommend booking with Kate! And our dog was obsessed with her right from the start which doesn’t always happen! 5/5 stars for sure!”


About: Hi there! My name is Rachel & my fiancé and I recently relocated to Tallahassee for his new job. I am currently in the process of studying for my Florida Teaching Certification. My love for teaching young children and education is something I pride myself on. At the moment, I am nannying for a family in the Tallahassee area! For the entirety of my life, I have been around dogs. My family has had two miniature pinschers and a Jack Russel. I have dog sat for families with Golden Doodles, Australian Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Daschaunds - the list goes on! I am open to staying the night to watch dogs while their owners are away, coming to walk dogs during the day or even just keeping them company when need be. I would love to learn more about how I can provide help with watching your dogs in the future. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I'm relocating to Tallahassee at the end of July and will be job hunting, which means I'll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or just giving them extra attention and companionship, I'll make sure they receive the care they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I love providing owners with peace of mind while they're away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I do my best to stick to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. That includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and, of course, plenty of love and attention. I'll also keep your home tidy, clean up after your pet, and send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing they're happy and well cared for. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both you and your pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 352 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Scotland. 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 Scotland 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 Scotland 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 Scotland 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scotland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
