“Ashley is so helpful and so kind. My senior dog is downright high maintenance, and she took special care of him and the others, too. Highest recommendation!”
“McKenna was able to help with our Aussie-doodle at short notice and we are so grateful! They had a fun day together and she helped him to be active and busy instead of in his kennel for a very long day. McKenna has a lot of experience and knowledge about what dogs need. She communicates regularly and sent some photos during the day as well. Thank you McKenna!!”
“Caitlin was amazing! It was obvious that Ollie and Daisy loved her. She was very accommodating and took care of our pups with love and kindness. I would ask Caitlin to watch Ollie and Daisy again in a heartbeat! Thank you Caitlin!!”
About: I am the son of a former vet tech and zookeeper. For as long as I can remember caring for animals of all kinds has been an ingrained mindset and part of my life. I have many years of sitting, fostering, and adopting animals of various species, age, temperament, and medical needs. I pride myself of showing up for my clients and their pets needs and understand the anxieties inherent in watching your home and invaluable pets wellbeing. I work part time with a relatively flexible schedule. If booked, I understand the importance of enrichment and varying levels of time and attentiveness needed. Pets are all unique and I prioritize meeting my client's needs for their pets. Understanding the importance of trust in any pet sitting work is not something I take lightly. Your home and pets wellbeing are my top priority. I am happy to meet client's request for updates with photos and and info to ease any worries.
About: I have been a volunteer at the Berkshire Humane Society for over a year now working within the kennel and have been trusted with friends and family's dogs throughout my life! I have personally trained both of my large breed pups and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs! <3 I currently work full time Mon-Fri so I have full availability at nights for drop-ins and walks. I have weekends and holidays free for all services! I will always find the best time and place to give your pets what they need. I am not able to bring pets to my apartment, but will gladly give them all the care and attention they need in their home, or out and about!
About: I waitress, have taken care of seniors and am a certified yoga instructor. I have had cats, dogs, chicks, fish, hamsters. I currently do not own any pets. Pets to me are precious friends who are to be taken care of like children. With full attention, support and love. I work from home so I am able to provide that kind of care. I work from home (virtually) and can accommodate boarding weekdays and weekends. I keep a clean and tidy home and have a gorgeous park very close by. Pet care fits in my routine as I used to have a cat until recently. I care for pets with respect and integrity. Showing them love and care. Keeping them and the area around them clean. Accommodating to their needs by always keeping an eye for out for them.
About: Working in various Grooming/Training facilities. I'm currently working with Bumblebee Pet Care with 5 of my own clients. My conversations with the pets are amazing. I'm currently walking dogs 2 days out of the week looking for more to work with within the week. I have an open schedule and interested. I have separate spaces available for each animal. In my care at anytime, I will use provided equipment for transportation. Your pet safety is number one.
About: I am a dependable, patient, and caring animal lover with many years of personal experience caring for dogs. I previously cared for my own Rottweiler for nine years, so I am comfortable with large breeds as well as smaller pets. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine. I will follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same love, attention, and respect I would give my own. Pet care fits well into my routine. I carefully schedule each booking around my work hours so I can provide dependable, unhurried care. I will keep my availability updated and communicate clearly with every pet owner. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, walks, and house rules. I keep doors and gates secure, supervise pets carefully, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular photo updates.
“Leona was wonderful with Romeo - he was really calm and happy when I returned. She communicated well, sent updates with photos and left my home better than she found it. I’m booking her for another cat/housesit right now!”
“Carol was super responsible with dog and home. Our senior dog with mobility issues bonded with her immediately and though she was happy to see us when we got home she did sit by the door looking longingly like she wanted Carol to come back. Highly recommend.”
“As always our dogs are so happy and love when Amad stays with them, they start wagging their tails when the suitcases come out. Amad is very attentive and walks them frequently throughout the day. He is very easy going and does a great job.”
“Bri was the perfect fit for our energetic dog. She provided updates and pictures while we were away. It put our minds at ease knowing she was taking such great care of our dog. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: Dogs have and will always be a huge part of my life. We got our first family dog when I was just 3 years old and the rest is history. My husband Jack is extremely passionate about animals as well and is my partner in all of this so you get two dog sitters for the price of one. Between the two of us your pet will get so much love, cuddles & exercise. We guarantee a level of attention and care that I feel confident your pet won’t get anywhere else; between this and Rover taking it’s fee our prices might be on the high side but they reflect our level of personalized and professional level of care. I also just want to add that our love for dogs extends to all animals so cats etc are all welcome to come hang with us :) Important Note: if you are reaching out for house sitting my husband and I only take those if we both are allowed to stay the night. We prefer to do this for safety as well as enabling the best care possible for your pet. Your pets will be my top priority & my main focus when they stay with us! I feel pretty confident that they will get more quality time, attention & lovin with me then any other pet sitter! I have a smoke free home and do not have any dogs currently living at my house so your pets will be my only focus! Also a child free home!
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with Labs, so I’m very familiar with big personalities, lots of energy, long walks, playtime, and plenty of slobbery love. 🐾 I also adopted a cat, which taught me that sometimes the best way to win a pet over is to let them come to you (and maybe offer a few treats!). Although my own pets have since passed, they gave me years of experience, amazing memories, and a genuine love for caring for animals. I’m patient, playful, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet wants an adventure outside, a game of fetch, or just some extra love and company, I’m happy to be their new buddy while you’re away! ❤️ I currently own my own business and make my own hours and work from home, so I can easily make my own schedule fit around any pet care! I'm lucky to have an open, comfortable and clean home where I can walk animals on the many acres I live on. I can also crate animals if that's how they are trained. When in other people's homes, I'm incredibly conscious of being considerate, following directions to respect their space, and understanding how the animal uses and loves the space.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 332 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Lee. 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 South Lee 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 South Lee 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 South Lee 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.
