“I feel so grateful that I found Anton to stay with my dogs! Kind and thoughtful with the pups, went above and beyond to help out when plans changed a little I’ll definitely be going to him again for any help I’ll need with my fur babies! Highly recommend :) thank you so much Anton!”
“This was my first time using Elizabeth and I have to say for somebody who was able to help myself and my dog Ted out last minute, she did a fantastic job. Elizabeth was great communicating with me and sending me pictures and updates about Ted. She followed all of my instructions and even tidied up the house before we got back, you can tell she truly is an animal lover, and I will be using her again in the future”
“Gabriel was absolutely incredible. We’ve had bad luck in the past when it comes to leaving our two fur babies for vacation, work or otherwise. Gabriel was so accommodating and communicative, it really helped our separation anxiety. Our puppies absolutely love him and all the walks and cuddles he provides. We can’t thank him enough for allowing us to break away for a while.”
“Nicole and Alex were absolutely amazing! They stayed at our home for 3 nights and took such great care of our dog, Whiskey. They made sure he got plenty of playtime, took him on walks, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and a clean house—which was such a bonus. They even went above and beyond and did laundry, which we truly appreciated! We would 100% trust Nicole and Alex again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitters. Thank you guys!”
About: I have been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by animals my entire life, and they have always held a very special place in my heart. Animals seem to naturally sense my calm energy and gravitate toward me, which helps me build a trusting connection with them quickly. I genuinely love caring for all living things and bring that same patient, gentle approach to babysitting children as well.My deep bond with nature has inspired me to study and work toward becoming a wildlife conservationist so I can protect our natural environment. When I look after your pets and home, I treat them with the same tenderness and responsibility I would give to my own family. I’m here to make sure your pets feel completely safe, loved, and comforted while you’re away. I’m currently working at wolf by vanderpump as a hostess. My hours range from 2pm-10pm weekdays, and on fridays and saturday 4pm-12am, currently looking for a less stressful and draining job! Keeping your pets safe and comfortable is my absolute priority. When I stay at your home, I keep a close eye on their routines, double check that doors and gates are secure, and make sure their environment stays peaceful and familiar.Because of my gentle approach and deep love for nature, I am very mindful of their surroundings during walks or playtime. I am always patient, highly attentive, and focused on making sure they feel secure and loved every moment you are away.
About: I have owned a dog years ago. Miss having them around. I am only a dog aunt now. I am very active and love walks, runs, playing on the beach. I work Monday-Friday. I usually work 7-3. I am available to meet for drop offs early in the morning or in the afternoon. I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets, including a dedicated guest room where they can sleep. Air conditioning is available during warmer weather to ensure your pet's comfort. I also offer in home pet care and can travel to your residence if preferred. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and exercise, including two daily walks, one in the morning and one in the evening. While I do not have a fenced yard, I am located less than 10 minutes from Kiva Beach and am happy to take dogs there for additional outdoor time.
“We had such a great experience with Breanna and Dan! They took such wonderful care of our pup and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. They accommodated an inconvenient drop off time, gave our puppy a bath when he rolled around in mud, and clearly treated him like their own. We loved getting updates and photos along the way, and it was so nice knowing he was happy and well cared for. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter!”
“Adam sat for us while we were on a summer trip to Tahoe. He is awesome! He took Bodie for a walk, played with him, and watched him in our Airbnb for two afternoons so that we could go do dog-free activities. Adam got along well with our energetic Kelpie. We HIGHLY recommend him!!”
“Angelique and her boyfriend Pete were excellent! I needed help with my sweet little kitty who does not like to be alone for a last minute trip out of town, and Angelique and Pete made me feel super comfortable, sent lots of snuggle photos, and took care of my house and my little lady perfectly! Looking forward to continuing my relationship with them for future house/pet sitting needs! Would highly recommend this duo to any pet owner.”

About: I have been an animal, lover and pet owner since my young years of life! I’ve always owned dogs and cats and have watched over loved ones animals as well over the years. I’ve spent the last two years professionally walking dogs in the Tahoe area for families of all different needs - whether it is housesitting, drop- in visits, or boarding needs - for small dogs, large dogs, puppies, and older animals, my experience is thorough and backed by love. I am a very active individual and can take animals needing high activity, hiking or running, but I’m also happy to relax with those calmer pets who enjoy the slower peace of life. I have endless references to provide insight to my past care and glowing reviews, and can’t wait to be considered for your furry ones care and create ease in the household when needed! I currently work as a Remote Insurance Agent for Globe Life which allows me full flexibility to accommodate your family's and furry loved ones needs - I have availability for overnight care, boarding requests, drop in visits for tailored walks or playtime, potty breaks, feedings, medical requests, and prompt check-ins. This change of pace has been a nice alternative from the hustle and bustle of past work experience as a project coordinator, logistics broker, hospitality leader in the concierge world, and constant stream of server jobs! Dependable care is the name of my game for your family's needs. I have a large fenced backyard off of North Upper Truckee Road in South Lake Tahoe and access to endless trails such as the Angora Meadow and Big Meadow. I have one loving and sweet dog named Addy who will be a perfect and compassionate companion for your pets or can be separated if requested. My cat, Maithai, likes to observe dogs from a distance and stays to herself unless she is in a playful mood. She can be separated as well since my spacious 3 bedroom home offers such accommodations. I have reliable transportation with ample space in my Toyota Sienna. Whatever services you request or needs you prioritize - I can guarantee to be able to deliver. Your comfort and trust in my care takes all precedence!

“Kellye is truly one of the most exceptional dog sitters I have ever experienced, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for my dog, Tinley, for over two months, which speaks volumes about the level of trust, consistency, and reliability she provides. From the very beginning, it was clear that Kellye genuinely loves animals. She didn’t just watch Tinley, she was truly invested in her and it was clear she formed a real bond with her. Tinley became completely comfortable with her, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Kellye was incredibly attentive and responsible throughout the entire stay. She consistently kept me updated, communicated clearly, and always reached out if there was anything to note or any questions. She made sure Tinley stayed on her routine, including administering her medication carefully and reliably, which was extremely important to me. What really sets Kellye apart is the level of attention and involvement she provides. She didn’t just watch Tinley, she included her in her daily life, taking her along on car rides and to different places. It’s clear she puts genuine thought and effort into making sure the dogs she looks after are not only safe, but happy, engaged, and loved. She even helped coordinate and take Tinley to the groomer when I asked, which I really appreciated. Tinley came back happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. That says everything. If you are looking for someone who is responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animals, Kellye is the one. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would trust her again without hesitation.”
About: With a passion for animals and a special affinity for dogs of all shapes and sizes, I bring a wealth of experience and dedication to my Rover services. As a 29-year-old caregiver, I've recently returned to Rover with an expanded repertoire and a deeper understanding of pet care. My recent engagements include the attentive care of a 5-year-old Husky and a delightful Husky-Golden Retriever mix, and an 8-year-old German Shepard adding to my expertise in handling diverse breeds. While I currently don't have pets at my home, my upbringing surrounded by two beloved black Labs and ongoing care for my family's Black Lab and Bernese Mountain Dog have honed my understanding of canine behavior and needs. From pint-sized pups brimming with confidence to gentle giants convinced they're lap dogs, I cherish and cater to each dog's unique personality. I wholeheartedly recognize that these furry companions are cherished family members, and I prioritize their safety and well-being above all else. Rest assured, I am committed to providing the utmost care, ensuring a secure and attentive environment for your cherished furry loved ones. I currently am self-employed so my schedule is very flexible. I am looking for house sitting gigs and can also do drop ins or day gigs. I am a very cautious pet sitter as I meet and learn your pets behavior. I tend to be that "helicopter parent" when it comes to new pets until I learn their behavior. At the end of the day though my goal is to love the pet as much as possible and enjoy our time together.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Spring Creek 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 Spring Creek 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 Spring Creek 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
