“Kerian has done a great job of walking my dog Wally. Wally gets very excited whenever she pulls into the driveway. I also just had her house sit with Wally for a long weekend. Wally was well cared for and the house was cleaner than I left it. I will not hesitate to have her house sit again. I would highly recommend!!”
“Torri took excellent care of our four legged’s. Unfortunately, one of our animals had an unexpected medical crisis. Torri swiftly acted and handled the situation with care, professionalism, and love. She definitely served as our surrogate pet parent when we were 1300 miles away. Torri also left the house clean and tidy. Her pet care and house sitting was top notch. I would highly recommend Torri. Thank you, Torri.”
“Alyssa did a great job taking care of our pups and providing us with pupdates (with pictures) throughout her stay. She cleaned up after herself while staying in our house and even unloaded the dishwasher for us, which was a pleasant surprise. I would be happy to hire her again.”

My week day schedule is pretty open, I enjoy going to the gym in the morning, but if needed I can set that aside:) When I dog sit/ walk my friends and families dogs I make sure to follow there instructions very thoroughly, every dog is unique in there own way:). And with dog walking I make sure to never let them off the leash and I try to avoid interactions with other people, you never know how a dog will react and it is better to be safe than sorry!
About: I’m extremely playful and loving towards all kinds! There’s been dogs in my family that i’ve trained/cared for all the way from chihuahuas to golden retrievers! I love all kinds and will listen and attend to your puppy’s needs! I’m currently home from college for the summer, and will be using Rover as a full time job! My availability i’m able to offer you is endless! I provide caring and reliable pet care in your pet's own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. With years of experience caring for animals, I understand the importance of maintaining their normal routine while you're away. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I love getting to know each pet's personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are gone. My goal is to make being away from your pet a little easier by giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands.
“Jessica is nice & she is good with Dexter! Takes him for walks and everything. She worked during her stay, which we agreed to, but she was gone a little longer than I expected based on her work schedule. Otherwise, she was good with Dexter and left the house in good order when she left.”
About: I have dog sat for a family friend for a long time now! I usually stay at her house and take care of her doggies. I am currently a full-time teacher looking for some extra work. If I stay over at your place, you would have to be okay with me leaving for the day to go to work, but I will come right back to take care of your loves. I am available most weekends :) I can take your dogs out for potty breaks, play fetch, take walks, etc. I love giving furry friends treats, pet rubs, cuddles. I can fill up the food and water bowls.

About: I have a 7 year old corgi and a 8 year old rescue that we like to call our mystery dog., that has brought much joy to my world! In 2024, we also welcomed 2 cats to their mix. Besides taking care of my own fur babies I have taken care of my friends two small dogs many of times over the past few years. As well as caring for my in laws corgi and sisters cattle dog. Care included, walks, potty breaks, play and feeding. I love being outside and walking dogs is a perfect way for a dog to be ready for downtime once they get home. Much like a child I believe dogs need attention in order to be well behaved and listen well. I am willing to watch dogs that may have special routines. I am interested in walking/ sitting in the early mornings and evenings. I am looking forward to working with you and your furry friend! I am currently working full time but my job allows me to work remotely when I need/want to. I am available most weekends with notice. I have a huge yard that is large enough for any dog to get their energy out. We also have a basement allowing for separate space for our dogs if needed.

I will come to your house as needed and gladly walk, feed and play with your dog while you’re unavailable . If that is for one day or several days.. I am available to house/pet sit for longer periods of time .
“Tiffany was great! She was very attentive to Dexter, taking him for walks and making sure he was fed per his schedule. She was very good at communicating their activities and very respectful of our home. I didn't worry at all while we were gone.”
“McKenzie did an amazing job with our pets! We have a young energetic pup and a couple crazy cats and McKenzie did amazing making all of them feel comfortable. The updates she provided made me feel so comfortable while we were away. And the pictures she sent were better than any of the ones I have taken. She also left the house way better than we kept it. 10/10 will definitely be using her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Spring Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 626 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Spring 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 Spring 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 Spring 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 Spring 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.

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.
