About: Animals have been apart of my life since birth. I have had the pleasure of taking in and mending injured wildlife. I have experience with taking a care of senior dogs and cats. I love animals and enjoy spoiling them as much as I can! I own and operate a business and do that throughout the week, and would like to spend time helping and hanging out with animals when I am not doing that. I have a large yard that gives animals a chance to run and play while being away from main roads. I keep a close eye and there are several places close to bring pets to walk and explore the outdoors!
“Absolutely sweetheart!! I trusted her with my two polar opposite dogs and she did absolutely amazing!! Stayed with them all day so they didn’t have to be in a cage all day. She was very responsive and send updates throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again!!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up caring for our family dog, geese and ducks! Lately, i've committed myself to helping dogs and cats feel loved, safe and secure while their pet parents are away. I have worked at a local veterinary clinic in their boarding department caring for overnight and long term clients. I previously worked at a local animal shelter for a year, where I learned the true responsibility of taking care of animals in all shapes and sizes. Senior animals have such a special place in my heart! Animal happiness and safety is a main priority of mine. I am looking to take care of your animals part time and as needed! I have plenty of experience with all kinds of dogs and cats! I have 3 dogs currently, a shepherd mix, husky mix and a mini pin doberman alongside 2 cats! We have a large fenced in yard which allows us to let our dogs get their energy out and enjoy some time alone outside, while we continue to keep a close eye on them. The dogs are never out of my sight, I know how mischievous they tend to be.
“Carissa was a lovely dog/house sitter who stayed in communication our entire trip! She was wonderful with our two large dogs and left our house very clean. We will definitely rebook in the future!”
“We have employed Kyle several times and could not be happier. We have 3 dogs and he cares for all of them as well as my many plants that need watering with Love. I would highly recommend Kyle , unless of course we need him then.😁”
About: I'm a dependable animal lover who understands that every pet has unique needs. I've cared for puppies, pregnant dogs, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I'm comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, or companionship, I'm happy to help. I'm also comfortable administering medications as directed and providing extra patience and care for senior pets or those recovering from illness or surgery. I'm primarily looking to provide dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits. I also offer in-home care for both dogs and cats while you're out of town, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship in the comfort of their own home. I prefer not to spend the night myself, but will come over multiple times a day and for extended periods so your fur baby never feels alone. If you'd prefer they not spend the night alone, please consider boarding them with me. 🐾 I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make every visit safe, stress-free, and enjoyable for both you and your pets. I typically work from 5:00 AM to 2:00 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for afternoon walks and drop-in visits. If your pet needs an earlier check-in, I'm often able to accommodate early morning visits or work them into my lunch break. I'm primarily looking to provide dog walks, potty breaks, feeding, medication administration, and drop-in visits. I also offer in-home care for both dogs and cats while you're out of town, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship in the comfort of their own home. I prefer not to spend the night myself, but will come over multiple times a day and for extended periods so your fur baby never feels alone. If you'd prefer they not spend the night alone, please consider boarding them with me. 🐾 My goal is for your pets to feel like they're on their own all-inclusive vacation—full of playtime, belly rubs, treats (with your approval!), and lots of personalized care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have two fur babies of my own, both under 30 pounds, and have cared for dogs of all sizes—from small breeds to dogs well over 100 pounds. One of my dogs is intact, so I'm experienced with caring for dogs in heat, pregnant dogs, and their unique needs. I've also owned and cared for cats throughout the years. My home has a securely fenced yard and is available for boarding when needed. However, I generally prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routine. Whether I'm stopping by for a walk, providing overnight care, or house sitting while you're away, I'll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I'll also care for your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and treating it as if it were my own. My goal is for you to return home to happy pets and complete peace of mind.

About: I’ve grown up with high energy Aussies since I was a kid. From the moment I moved to a pet friendly home and schedule I started on the Aussie pack I have now. I have trained two dogs from puppies and rescued two from unfortunate situations. Therefore, I understand and can assist in potty and leash training, socialization, or a good old fashioned game of fetch. I’ve always loved working with dogs and seeing the joy they get from just being with you. In college I often volunteered with animal shelters to assist in socializing dogs. While I was active duty military I relied on my dog sitter to ensure my pups were getting all of their energy out and getting all the love with my unpredictable schedule. Therefore, I know how important it is to have someone who you can trust with your pups. I will strive to treat your fur babies just like my own because they’re our family! I recently retired from active duty military and am taking some much needed down time with my 4 dogs. I am available Monday-Saturday and would love to fit your fur babies into the routine! I have a large fenced backyard, I believe in positive reinforcement, and have 4 excited friendly pups who would love to share their space and toys with any new friends that want to play!
“Outstanding Lisa I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lisa ! My dog became sick before I have to travel out of state as while I was away, and she handled the situation with such care, patience, and compassion. She kept a close eye on my dog, communicated with me promptly, and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout the entire experience. Knowing that someone was there who genuinely cared about my dog and treated them like their own gave me tremendous peace of mind. Their responsibility, kindness, and calmness during a stressful situation meant so much to me. I highly recommend this pet sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. I would absolutely use her again! Thank you so much Lisa you are amazing!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Slater
Overall, Laura is a good sitter. We did have a misunderstanding early in the stay about our dog’s expected routine and schedule, but, Laura was responsive to feedback and corrected the issue. She was on top of things and adhered to schedule for the rest of the week, provided ample updates and photos, and left the house in great condition. It is evident that she put in time to clean up before we arrived. Our pets seemed to love her and they both seemed to have had a great time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Slater on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 1,221 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Slater. 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 Slater 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 Slater 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 Slater 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.
