“Susan, was not only so compassionate and but so knowledgeable about what my dog was going through after her surgery which she had a few days before our time with her. She immediately greeted my dogs and my daughter as if they were part of her family, they were all obsessed with her amazing energy (and of course so are we)! She made us feel so comfortable and gave us such a peace of mind when it was time to leave our dogs and visit Disney for the day! It just felt like we had known her for years and it was so refreshing not to worry about them all day at Disney! She took so much stress off of our plates and made the whole visit, so special! I will be asking for Susan as soon as we go back and visit Disney! Wished she lived near us, so we could have her watch our dogs for every trip! You will definitely not be disappointed if you have Susan come watch your animals! Thank you so much Susan for being you! We just love you so very much!!!”
“Karen was the perfect dog sitter for Otis! She was so playful and spoiled him with long walks and play time. Her updates made me comfortable on my trip and allowed me to truly enjoy my time knowing Otis was happy and cared for. HIGHLY recommend!”
About: Hands on experience caring for animals I provide dependable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with a wide variety of animals from large to small. I am retired and I do Uber on the side. I have very flexible hours and I’m available from dog walking, spending time with your animals to staying with them in your home to house sitting. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal is different, and I will take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs that they may have. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, quiet, companionship, medication or extra patience, I provide loving a attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pets is to feel completely comfortable, knowing they’re in experienced, caring and trustworthy hands.
“Omg Danii was AMAZING! She was so kind and loving to our dogs and our dogs loved her from the beginning. She kept in touch with us and was quick to respond to messages, she sent pictures and updates, and kept our dogs happy and healthy. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Devona took great care of our dog while out of town for three nights. He’s a rescue with some separation anxiety, so we were hesitant to board him. Having Devona stay during the evenings and overnight worked out great. A++ communication both before and after after our booking. We highly recommend her!”
“Tiffany was able to help us out last minute when other pet sitting plans fell through and we’re so happy to have found her! She was great with our two pups and sent us pics throughout her stay. She was great at communicating with us before and during and we came home to a clean home and happy pups. We will definitely use her again! Thank you Tiffany for your professionalism and for taking such good care of our pups!”
“Mariia was great! She communicated well, spent a lot of time with our cats, and left my house spotless. I came home to calm, happy cats and we will be using Mariia again :)”
“Thank you, Nick, for another fantastic stay with Ellie and Theo! We came home after two weeks to two happy pups and everything perfectly in order at home.”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She’s so sweet, and Bingo and Chloe adored her. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“Logan was absolutely fantastic with our dogs! Leaving them behind is never easy, especially because they are highly active and each have their own unique personalities, but Logan made the entire experience stress-free. He gave them plenty of attention, kept up with their energy levels, and made sure they were well cared for while we were away. We loved receiving updates and could tell our pups were happy, comfortable, and in great hands. It’s clear that Logan genuinely cares about the animals he watches, and that peace of mind is priceless. We came home to happy dogs and a well-cared-for home. We highly recommend Logan to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter. We would gladly have him watch our dogs again!”
About: Hi! My name is Esmeralda, and I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From Chihuahuas and Golden Retrievers to Pit Bulls and everything in between, I've had the privilege of raising and caring for dogs throughout every stage of life. Every dog is different, and I love getting to know their unique personality and needs. Before joining Rover, I regularly provided dog sitting and drop-in visits for family members and members of my church community while living in Puerto Rico. Those and my personal experiences taught me the importance of being dependable, attentive, and treating every pet with the same love and respect I'd want for my own. What sets me apart is that I don't believe in "just watching" your pet—I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and give them the attention they deserve, whether that's playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. As a dog mom myself, I understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. My goal is for both you and your pet to have a stress-free experience, with regular updates and plenty of love every step of the way. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work a part-time remote job, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention. As a dog owner myself, I'm already used to feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets receive lots of love and care throughout the day. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make it a priority to keep them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. Daily Pet Care Schedule 8:00 AM – Morning Routine Morning potty break/walk Fresh water refill Breakfast feeding Morning playtime and attention 12:00 PM – Midday Check-In Potty break Short walk or play session Fresh water check Extra attention and companionship 4:00 PM – Afternoon Activity Walk or outdoor time Playtime and enrichment activities Check on comfort and needs 6:00 PM – Dinner Time Evening meal Fresh water refill Relaxation and affection 8:00–9:00 PM – Evening Routine Final potty break/walk Calm playtime or cuddles Ensure pets are comfortable before bedtime I understand every pet has their own routine, so I’m always happy to adjust feeding, walking, and care schedules based on each owner’s instructions and their pet’s individual needs. In my client's home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including their feeding schedule, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions from their owner. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable staying in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while keeping owners updated,whether thats through videos or pictures, so they have peace of mind and show how their ppets well being. Every pet is treated like family and cared for with the same love and patience I give my own.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, including owning six dogs and two cats and fostering more than 50 pets. Fostering has given me hands-on experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities and care needs, including puppies, seniors and pets who are sick or need a little extra attention. I’m comfortable administering medications, following special care instructions and helping senior or special-needs pets with their daily routines. I also have experience reinforcing basic puppy and dog training, including commands, house-training routines and good manners. Most importantly, I’m patient and understand that every pet is different. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, older and needs a slower pace, or simply takes some time to warm up to new people, I’m happy to meet them where they are and care for them according to their normal routine. (PLEASE NOTE: I am not available most Friday evenings after 6pm or Saturdays during the day till 7pm.) I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a priority rather than trying to squeeze it in around a traditional workday. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, day care, boarding and overnight stays, and can easily accommodate different feeding, exercise and medication schedules. I’m also happy to keep pets on the routine they’re already comfortable with. I try to keep every pet’s routine as familiar and consistent as possible, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, sleeping arrangements and any special needs, while giving each pet plenty of attention and affection at their own comfort level. I have a friendly, neutered 2-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd named Rocket, so pets staying in my home must be comfortable around another dog. I take introductions seriously and want both your pet and mine to feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m equally respectful of their space and routines and make sure owners receive regular photos and updates while they’re away.
“I booked JaRavia at the last minute, and she was incredibly flexible with scheduling a meet-and-greet. During the boarding, she was patient and understanding with my shy dog, Bear, who can be a bit distant. She checked in frequently, and by the end of the visit, Bear had started to trust her. I highly recommend JaRavia for her kindness and love of animals!”
“Makenna is the bomb! She not only made our two k-9 girls fall in love with her, she also changed the bed, cleaned the house and left us a wonderful unexpected surprise!!! She is also a classy dresser and a delightful person! Thank you Makenna, we will definitely ask you to stay again. Kathy and Michael”
About: I've loved animals since childhood and I have a collection of my own! Including the basics, 3 cats, and.... geckos, snakes, and quails of cource all our non-venmous and completely hsrmless little ones! No matter what your pet is I would love to care for them and give them the best care possible! If boarding: you pet will be housed in a separate room from my 3 cats to make sure everyone is as comfortable as possible! I will spend as much time as needed with your furry, feathered or scaly pet as needed! No matter my schedule I always block off time to give your baby as much time as they require! I have a separate sectioned off area of my apartment where you pet will get all the enrichment they need without being disturbed by any of my babies.
“Colleen did an amazing job caring for our 2 cats and house for almost 2 weeks! Also, she kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. We came home to happy cats and a spotless house. We will definitely be booking with Colleen again!”
“Elizabeth was amazing!! Our pup and kittie adored her. They enjoyed lots of love and attention. We felt complete peace of mind knowing they were in excellent hands. We loved the daily communication and pictures. A huge thank you to Elizabeth!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, including Pit Bulls, French Bulldogs, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Cane Corsos, and many others. My love for animals goes far beyond simply caring for them—they truly become family. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. If you choose me as your pet sitter, you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member will be treated with patience, compassion, and plenty of love every step of the way Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I currently work part-time, Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me plenty of time each day to provide attentive care before and after work. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’m available to give them the love and attention they deserve. On the weekends, I’m completely off, giving me even more flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and spend quality time with them. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. In my client’s home, I strive to keep your pet on their normal schedule by providing fresh food and water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, exercise, medication (if needed and with instructions), and plenty of affection. I also make sure your home is respected and kept tidy while I’m there. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry family member is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, loving, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sky Lake
Jennifer was such a great sitter for our dog! We unfortunately had a last minute cancellation with a previously scheduled sitter, and Jennifer responded immediately to our request. She came same day for a meet and greet with our dog, and was able to start sitting the next day. She was very helpful, and took great care while we were away. 10/10 would recommend her and use her again the next time we go away.
Stephanie was amazing!! She watched our 3 dogs while my husband and I went overseas for our wedding. We were gone for over a week, and we got multiple pictures and updates daily. She is extremely communicative and responsible. We were nervous to leave our babies that long but Stephanie put our minds at ease so we could relax while we were away. She left our house even cleaner than before we left. I would definitely recommend Stephanie and plan on booking her again! 10/10 stars! Thank you Stephanie!!
Robin was great! She arrived on time and took care of our precious pets! She kept us informed and took pictures of the pets, we could see they were enjoying themselves. This was our first time having a pet sitter to our home and Robin made us feel very comfortable and did an excellent job. We will definitely have her back again!
Danii took excellent care of our 15-year-old dog, Ghetta, in our home for 26 days. She was always quick to respond and consistently sent photos, videos, and daily progress reports. Danii handled Ghetta’s medication and special needs with remarkable attention. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. She even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much!
Outstanding care for Juuls. Couldn't recommend Alinna more highly. We were so happy with Alinna's care for our home and Juuls while we were away. As a nervous pet owner, it can be stressful to leave our furry friend, but Alinna put us at ease from the very beginning. She is incredibly reliable, professional, and humorous keeping our pet's routine perfectly. We especially loved the daily updates with photos. It was such a comfort to see Juuls looking so happy and relaxed in every update. Not only did she provide top-notch care for our pet, but they also took excellent care of our home. We returned to a happy animal and a pristine house. We wouldn't hesitate to book Alinna again and recommend them wholeheartedly to any pet owner. 💯💫💫💫

FAQs for House Sitting - Sky Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 3,129 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sky Lake. 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 Sky Lake 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 Sky Lake 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 Sky Lake 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sky Lake. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
