“Meretta did an amazing job with our 3 pups!!! Came back to a clean home and happy babies! She really gave us a peace of mind while gone and will definitely book her anytime we need someone to house sit!”
“Olivia was absolutely amazing! She was very attentive to my dog and kitten. It was so nice being able to leave them at home with someone trustworthy rather than boarding them. I would highly recommend Olivia if you are needing someone to watch your pets and love them like your own.”
About: My husband and I have had dogs big and small growing up so we’re very familiar with their mannerisms, behavior and unique personalities. We’ve had our own dogs for four years and love them dearly, they’re our babies! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom so I am available and pretty flexible for the most part throughout the day. My dogs help me around the house as I get things done. I have a fenced in yard with two of my own dogs to keep yours company! Occasionally I let the dogs inside to hang out and eat, or depending on the weather to keep warm/cool. At bedtime I bring them in to sleep in their dog crate.
“Samye was fantastic! She showed up right on time for our initial meetup, was incredibly easy to communicate with, and kept us updated regularly while watching Barbara. She was thoughtful, attentive, and left our home spotless. Having her stay at our place gave us real peace of mind, and we’d absolutely love to have her watch Barbara again!”
About: When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a vet because I loved animals so much. From hamsters, rats, dogs, cats, etc there really wasn’t an animal that I didn’t own. That dream has now evolved into being a dog mom. I love animals- all shapes and sizes! Every morning is started with a walk followed by breakfast. I take the dogs out every hour (or as needed) and give them lots of time to play! I’m almost always at home, so I can’t wait to become best friends with your pet. I have a fairly large home and yard for your pet to run around! I also have two very friendly dogs that will keep your pet company. I can also crate train as needed :)
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I'm excited to take care of your furry family. I've trained horses and I have a dog of my own who is very sweet and kind. I'm able to walk your pets, or drop by all hours of the day. I'll make sure they're well taken care of and loved 😋🩷 I have an open house, large back yard and a sizable built in kennel off to the side of the house. I'll be able to take care of all your pets needs and we'll have lots of fun together
“Kylie was amazing! Our dog Lila can take a while to warm up to new people, and Kylie was able to come ahead of her scheduled time to meet Lila and they hit it off immediately! She checked in with us every day and sent pictures of our babies, which made us feels even more comfortable. We will definitely be using Kylie as a sitter again!!!”
“Jonah did an amazing job watching our dogs at our house while we were on vacation! He kept us updated and the dogs were happy and the house looked untouched when we returned! I would highly recommend him to everyone!!!”
“Shaylee was absolutely amazing!! This is our second time booking with her to take care of our two dogs. She sends daily updates with pictures which we love. Highly recommend 🤍”
About: Neighbors, friends, and family always ask me to pet sit for them. I've stayed up to 2 weeks with pets! I'll watch dogs, cats, fish, and even birds! There's never been a job too difficult for me to handle. I currently work from 7am-3:30 pm Monday through Friday, but I have flexibility within those hours! Nights and weekends will be best for me to spend time with your pets. All of my pets I've owned have had boundaries that we maintained through training. I'm very comfortable with crate training and leash training. If there's a routine you want implemented, I'll follow it to the last detail.
About: I have taken care of all my friends and family's pets for as long as I can remember. I love dogs and cats! I have done month long stays at people's houses and I have also done the quick stop ins for potty breaks and feedings. I am currently not working so I have all the time to take care of your pets! I can do quick drop ins, long walks, overnight stays, whatever you need! I like to follow your pets routine. If they are used to morning walks and daily training I will happily do that! If they are more of a couch potato and like to snuggle, I will sit with them for as long as you'd like.
About: Quick introduction! My preferred name is Jinx/Hunter, and my pronouns are she/her or he/him! For legal purposes, Rover needs my government name, which I don't use often unless absolutely necessary. Now on to the pet stuff!!! I've lived with dogs my entire childhood, and I love all breeds! They're a huge interest of mine, and I'm willing to learn as much as I need to in order for me to assure your pet is well taken care of! I'm hoping to work at least 12 hours a day with however many folks are willing to let me care for their pets during the week! I'm currently available anytime between 9am-9pm, but I would ideally like to work Wednesday-Friday. I can do some weekends, but I would have to double check my schedule. I'm able to go to your home and get to know your pet(s) and make sure they know me well enough to develop trust as an extra caretaker! I can feed them and provide enrichment to make sure they're entertained and happy! I love going on walks, so if your dog needs outdoor time, playing, walking, maybe running, I'll do it! I also love cats and I'm willing to accommodate to whatever they may need! For both cats and dogs, I have experience feeding, bathing, claw trimming, walking, and playing!
“Incredibly impressed with Tyler! We’ve had many house/catsitters and Tyler clearly stands above them all. Everything from his communications, check-ins, level of care, attention to detail, cleanliness, organization, and how much he loves animals in unmatched! Don’t hesitate having Tyler help you!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I love animals with everything and I would love to help people out that want to travel or don’t have a lot of time to be home. I need an extra hand. I have also worked at a family owned pet store for three years. I have open availability throughout the week and the weekends so if you are going on a trip and need an extra hand, I am willing to help out I will always be their best friend! Talk to them feed them take them outside go on walks play with them and watch movies with them
About: With over a decade of experience working at a professional doggy daycare, I know exactly what it takes to keep pups safe, happy, and entertained! On my days off, I run a special "Doggy Bus" adventure. I will personally pick up your furry friend and chauffeur them to our fully equipped daycare facility. Their day includes splashing in the fresh water pool, a dedicated walk, and plenty of fresh water and doggy cookies. It’s the ultimate VIP day out, backed by 10+ years of professional pet care experience! This exclusive Doggy Bus adventure is a 5-6 hour VIP experience, currently available on weekends. I will personally pick up your pup in our specialized doggy bus between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. After a fun-filled day of play, swimming, and walking at our private facility, I will safely drop them back off at home between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM. With over 10 years of professional doggy daycare experience, your dog's safety and happiness are my top priorities! Our private, secure facility features a fully fenced grass yard, fun dog ramps, and supervised fresh water pools for splashing. During the day, we take small pack walks (up to 4 dogs at a time) on quiet back roads. If your pup isn't up for a walk, they can safely chill and play at the daycare! All dogs have constant access to fresh drinking water, plenty of shade, and get treated to delicious doggy cookies.
About: I’ve had the absolute pleasure looking after numerous dogs and cats, tailoring my approach to each pets unique needs. From high-energy pups to senior friends, I’ve provided attentive care, ensuring their comfort, exercise, and happiness. I currently work and attend school remotely with a flexible schedule to take care and play with your pups or cats. I’m available both weekdays and weekends. I live in a house and have the schedule to take your dog out on long walks or runs. There are many trails that I know of that I like to go to often. I am an avid runner and hiker who is always looking for an excuse to be outside. Let me know if your pet has any specific needs or behaviors to attend to. I am comfortable with any breed or size of pet.
“Christiana watched our two Rhodesian ridgebacks in our home. She was professional, respectful and communicated well during the entire stay. It felt good to know our dogs were in good hands. Highly recommend and would use again!”

Maretta is a jewel! She is so good with animals. My Winston has allergies and needed a specific routine at night that was never missed! Her really took to her and was so comfortable with her, not anxious like the past. Every little thing was done perfectly and with love an care. She's a real jewel!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 671 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spring Lake. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
