I only work part time and have my own vehicle so i am very available for your needs. I can work most days at any time, and i am comfortable with early mornings or late nights if needed. I can let dogs out on a leash or unleashed and stay with them to keep an eye on them. I am comfortable crating dogs if needed!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a long time for friends and family, whenever they needed. I love dogs and enjoy spending time with them ! I’m working part time so I should be available most of the time you reach out ! It would be much appreciated if you could reach out in advance please ! I care for dogs just like they are mine. Whatever requests you need, there is no doubt it will get done in a timely manner as I enjoy each step of it.
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. While I’m newer to professional dog walking and pet sitting, I’ve spent time helping walk friends’ dogs, playing with them, and assisting with their care when needed. Those experiences have shown me how rewarding it is to make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to following your instructions carefully so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, exploring the neighborhood, or simply getting extra attention and affection, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care and engagement. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while your pet is with me. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I would love the opportunity to earn that trust. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! Dog walking fits easily into my weekly routine. I have flexible availability during the early mornings, evenings, and some mid-day hours depending on the day, which allows me to consistently take on walks. I’ve helped walk dogs for friends and enjoy being active, so I’m comfortable building this into my schedule regularly. I make sure to plan ahead and keep commitments organized so each dog gets reliable, attentive care and a consistent walking routine. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. My goal is to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed while you’re away. For dog walking, I focus on giving each dog a safe and enjoyable walk based on their energy level and personality—whether that’s a relaxed stroll or a more active walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, keep things clean, and make sure pets are safe and happy at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pet is well cared for.
“Maria was a great fit for us & our 2 cats. We were apprehensive after some bad experiences in the past. Our cats were comfortable with her immediately! Maria sent us several updates each day with photos. She was super responsive and proactive. We wouldn’t hesitate to book request her again!”
“Jessica was lovely to work with. She sent the occasionally update and my pups looked like they were having the time of their lives. They were happy and exhausted when we got home. Definitely rebooking her for future stays.”
“Brittany was great to work with! She was communicative, arrived on time and was very responsible and engaging with my dogs. She sent us pictures during her visit and everyone was happy when we came home! We would definitely book pet sitting with Brittany again!”
About: Hi I’m Angelica, i’ve owned so many dogs throughout my life from tiny dogs to big dogs, I currently have two of my own dogs and walk them every day as is, I would love to go on walks with other dogs as well and get some exorcise in with your dogs as well! I adore all sorts of animals! I’m a high school senior, so I get out of school anywhere from 12-1 which is early, so anytime after that I can come walk dogs or take care of cats or whatever is needed of me to do. I do not allow animals in my house but I can come to your house and walk your dog or check on the cat whenever is needed.
“We had such a great experience with Kayla. Our dog struggles with separation anxiety, but Kayla did such a great job to calm his nerves. She was very patient with him and went out of her way to do a meet and greet prior to the appointment. He had such a good time! Highly recommend.”
“Jordyn did a great job caring for my westie in my home while I was away for a week. She sent updates and pictures. He was well cared for. When I returned home, Jordyn made sure everything was in perfect order! Linus misses her already! We’ll be calling Jordyn again! I highly recommend her!”
“Connie did a great job taking care of our cat, Marvel, while we were away for one week. It was the first time Marvel was pet sat without her sister, Tasha, our dog who recently passed. Through this adjustment, Marvel certainly gave Connie a run for her money, but Connie made sure she was handled with care. We appreciated Connie's communication and commitment, and we hope to work with her again in the future. Thank you, Connie!!”
“Coral was dependable and supplied daily pictures and updates of our dog Dean. Dean bonded with her and we are grateful for her support. We would definitely use her services again and we highly recommend her.”
“Ethan has been such an amazing sitter for our pup. He's reliable, trustworthy, and always accommodating. He's there to help us whenever he can & is always super responsive. It's hard to find people to depend on, but Ethan is one of them! We're so thankful for him & would highly recommend his services to others.”
“Diana took great care of our two labs, Grace and Beau, while we were away for an overnight trip. She was attentive to their routine and kept us well-informed through messages and pictures. We are extremely satisfied with Diana’s work and won’t hesitate to call on her again for future dog care. Highly recommend her for your consideration.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stirling
We asked Lana to house sit and care for our 11 month old mini poodle Layla. We had not left Layla for more than a day or two. Lana took great care of her! She sent lots of photos and we were able to enjoy ourselves knowing she was well cared for. She even developed a new way for her to eat more of her dry food which we will keep using. During the time when she was sitting there was a snow storm which she handled at the house with no issue. And she helped coordinate a pick up of rented table and chairs that were being picked up during the holiday. We came home to a clean house and happy and healthy puppy! I hope Lana would consider coming to watch Layla again!
Jesse took great care of our dog, Sunny, while we were away. He sent us photos and reassuring messages, which really put us at ease. Although he mentioned he recently started working as a dog sitter, he was clearly very experienced and confident with dogs. We felt Sunny was in very good hands and would absolutely ask him again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Stirling
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 17,441 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Stirling. 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 Stirling 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 Stirling 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 Stirling 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.
