About: I’ve had dogs all my life! Cane corsos, pit bulls and currently have a golden retriever. I am not afraid to get dirty and loving with your furball!❤️ I work part time, which leaves me a lot of time to take care of animals especially my own golden retriever. It’s something I already do! I have a beautiful and polite golden retriever who loves to play but is also very gentle, I also will constantly supervise and make sure they have all they need.

About: Finding someone you trust with your pets is a big deal—whether you need a regular midday walk, a drop-in while you’re away, or someone to settle in with them overnight. My goal is simple: keep your pets happy and comfortable, stick to the routines they know, and give you one less thing to worry about. With 20 years of my own pet care experience, I’ve learned that every animal is different. I pay attention to the little things—their personalities, habits, comfort levels, and all those quirks that make them them. Some want long walks and plenty of playtime, some are happiest curled up beside me on the couch, and others need a little patience and space before deciding we’re friends. I’m happy to meet them wherever they are. You can count on regular updates, plenty of photos, and communication you won’t have to chase down. Whether I’m there for a 30-minute visit or making your home my home base while you’re away, I take the responsibility seriously. That means thoughtful care for your pets, respect for your home, and attention to the little details that help everything run smoothly. At the end of the day, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are in good hands—whether I’m part of their everyday routine or caring for them while you’re away. And yes, they’re probably getting a few extra cuddles along the way! I am self employed so I have the ability to give your pet all the time and focus it needs. I routinely walk my dog at the local parks and around the neighborhood multiple times daily and could easily do the same for your puppers or kittens too. I care for my cat daily with lots of play and petting too. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re usually happiest and most comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and take the time to learn what’s normal for your pet—from their routine and personality to the little things that help them feel safe and settled. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, medications, feeding routines, and any special instructions specific to your pet and home. I’m also respectful of the trust that comes with being welcomed into someone’s home. I’ll care for your space thoughtfully, keep you updated along the way, and pay attention to anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your pets and your home are in good hands.

I have been pet sitting for over 10 years and I love every minute of it. I have pet sat and rehabbed dog, cats, rats, bunnies and even opossums!

“Rachel was just so amazing! We had her board at our kitties at our home for 5 days. We just got 2 new kittens and have been integrating them with our senior cat and it was really important to us to find someone who can truly help. Rachel followed all the instructions, she fed, cleaned, played with the kitties, continue the introduction period, swapped smells, kept our apartment clean and tidy, vacuumed daily and we couldn't be more happier! Our kitties adore her! Her communication was exceptional, she sent photos and pictures and was keept us in the loop continues. I felt so safe and comfortable leaving oru fur babies with her. She really has a nack for animals and they absolutely love her! I would not hesitate to hire her if I was you. She is my go to girl from now and I'm so happy to have found her! Thank you Rachel for your care.”

About: I have experience sitting cats and dogs. References can be provided upon request. I had my own dog for about 10 years. I was responsible for walking and feeding her. I also took her to the groomers. Our favorite time was play time. I am currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available for dog walks on weekdays 8am to 6pm, depending on the day. I do not offer boarding. Care for each pet is individualized and pet professional recommend allowing pets to stay in a familiar environment to promote pet mental health. It depends on what the pet and owner are accustomed to. Communication is key.
About: I've had dogs all through my young age, Military days and now retired days. I now have no pets and enjoy there energy and company while I work. I work from laptop. I'm currently a retired Army Vet. I have a Film company and a Record company. All my work is done on a Desktop, and for work on Laptop. I am very attentive to schedule and can also read pets body language. Animals are very smart, you just have to learn to understand them.
“This was our first time leaving our Boston Terrier for a few days with someone he didn’t already know. Michelle completely eased any worries we had, and we were fully able to enjoy our vacation. She provided us with daily pictures and updates of meals, potty breaks, playtime, and bedtime. We knew our pup was in the hands of someone who truly loves animals. Michelle was patient with our rambunctious dog, devoted her time and attention to building a bond with him, and clearly followed instructions I left for feeding, walks, etc. She was respectful of our home and left it as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left. I can’t recommend Michelle enough!”

“Ketlie was/is wonderful! We returned home after a 10 day trip, and our dog Shine was happy and healthy, and our home was in perfect shape. Shine took to Ketlie immediately, and unlike with some previous sitters, didn't show any signs of anxiety or neglect upon our return. Ketlie's easy going personality, together with her clear understanding as to how to properly care for a pet, and our return to a spotless home all lead to our hope that she will be available for our future trips. Five star satisfaction, without a doubt!”

“Adrianna was so helpful and a lifesaver! She is clearly an animal lover and it put my mind at ease leaving my puppy for the first time. She provided lots of updates and photos, and my puppy loved her! She went above and beyond 👍”

“Crystal was a godsend for us! We are from out of town and our dog was experiencing separation anxiety. Crystal arrived on time every day we needed her and took great care of Archie. She’s professional, respectful and communicated with us throughout her stays with him. Crystal saved the day!! Thank you so much!!”
“Jonathan and Giannina were wonderful with Mister MacDuffin. They were attentive, communicative and it was clear that he was comfortable and happy in their care. This was my first trip away from him using Rover, and they truly put me at ease. I would gladly book with them again for in house sitting, boarding or daycare. Thank you both so much!”

About: Now that I'm done traveling, I am back in Palm Beach ready to take care of your pet family :) While traveling, I was very active on TrustedHouseSitters (20+ sits) while watching dogs, cats, birds, pigs, chickens, and more! This was a great experience but I do prefer Rover when local. Also good to mention, I have been an international couchsurfer and host since 2016. I respect people's homes and love being helpful to travelers. I am a film editor freelancer. I spend most of my days at the computer. However, I am super active, try to walk after every meal and go for a bike ride every day. Very open to your dog’s needs, whether it be inside only, backyard only, crate trained, etc. love being around all dogs and am happy to keep them in their groove.
About: My pet care journey started when I began dog sitting for my coworker’s two pups. Word quickly spread around the office, and before I knew it, every dog owner in the office was reaching out to me whenever they went on vacation. Over time, I met even more pet parents through work and social events, building a network of families who trust me with their fur babies even those with more challenging schedules. I always go above and beyond to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and kept on their regular routine. I provide care right in the pet owner’s home to keep their environment familiar, and I’ve also done quick visits, playdates, and walks whenever my regular clients are out of town. As a dog owner myself, I truly enjoy the company of pups of all personalities and I also love caring for cats! Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, so I’m pretty flexible with pet care. My work schedule changes weekly, but I’m usually available weekday mornings, some afternoons if I have a closing shift, and weekends after 5 PM. I love engaging with pets in a playful and caring way, whether it’s playtime in your backyard or a relaxing walk around the neighborhood, I’m happy to do it all. I follow your home rules closely, including crate time or restricting certain areas, so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 950 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sixmile Bend. 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 Sixmile Bend 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 Sixmile Bend 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 Sixmile Bend 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
