Whether you need daily check ins, walks, overnight care, or help while you’re away, we’re here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own routine. Meet Roger Roger has cared for his own dogs throughout his entire life—from bouncy puppies to beloved seniors. He’s also helped care for pets belonging to family and friends, often taking on full household responsibilities while they traveled. This hands on experience has taught him how to build trust quickly with animals and maintain a calm, dependable environment. Roger currently works full-time for a medical supply company from 4 PM–1 AM, so he’s available for morning, early-afternoon, and weekend care. Meet Amy Amy has owned and cared for both dogs and cats for many years. She’s experienced with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs, and she always brings patience and empathy to every furry friend she meets. Her schedule is Tuesdays and Saturdays, 6 PM–4:45 AM, which complements Roger’s availability and gives us plenty of flexibility to meet your scheduling needs. Why We’re Here We’re currently building our own pet-care service because working with animals is truly what we love. Rover gives us the perfect opportunity to connect with families who want caring, communicative sitters they can trust. Our Promise to You • We’ll follow your instructions exactly as given. • We’ll use only the tools, treats, and routines you approve. • We’ll respect your home and space at all times. • We’ll only deviate from instructions when absolutely necessary such as cleaning up after your pet or handling an unexpected mess. • Most importantly, we’ll treat your pets like they’re our own. We’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family members. Please feel free to message us with any questions we’re excited to help you any way we can! I currently work full-time for a medical supply company from 4 PM to 1 AM, Tuesday through Thursday and friday 20m-11pm and Saturday noon to 8:30pm I’m available for pet sitting outside of those hours, including mornings, early afternoons, and weekends. My fiancé and I are in the process of starting our own pet care service, and Rover is a great opportunity for us to connect with pet owners in the community. Amy works Tuesdays and Saturdays from 6 PM to 4:45 AM, and her schedule complements mine, allowing us to offer flexible and reliable coverage for your pet’s needs. We will always use the tools, supplies, and routines you provide to ensure your pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment. We respect your home and will only handle items you haven’t specified if it’s absolutely necessary such as cleaning up after your pet, ensuring their safety, or maintaining a clean and healthy space for them. Your guidelines matter to us, and we’re committed to caring for your pet exactly the way you prefer. We use a double lease you can find on our Amazon list on Instagram

“Was very kind and communicated with us constantly sending many pictures of our babies enjoying their day.

About: I've been a proud pet parent for the past 10 years! I’ve had the joy of caring for a senior dog, and I’m currently lucky enough to share life with my buddy, Buddy. Since he can be a little anxious around new people, kids, and big dogs, he’s taught me to pay keen attention to his body language, respecting his boundaries, and the importance of creating a calm, safe space where he feels comfortable and happy. I know every pet has their own quirks and style of communication, and it is a top priority for me to understand your pet's individual self. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I'll make sure to give them what they need ◡̈ I understand how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind, and my goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable! I'm currently in nursing school, so when I'm not in class, a big part of my time is dedicated to studying and working. I love spending my free time with animals, and I'd be happy to care for your pup on weekends and select weekdays. I keep my availability up to date so you can always see when I'm available to help! I've been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for my own dog, Buddy, has taught me how to recognize and respond to a dog's unique personality and needs. Every pet communicates differently, and I take the time to learn what makes yours feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, you can count on me to provide plenty of exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I'll treat your pet like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. ◡̈
About: Growing up with dogs I realize all dogs are good dogs but it takes time to understand them and build trust. It doesn’t matter if your dog is in training or well trained already, I’m ready to give them a home away from home while you are busy. I work from home and I am home most of the time. Your dogs will get the same attention and care I give my own three dogs. If you have a certain schedule, such as feeding and potty, please let me know. My dogs roam free around the house and yours are welcome to as well. They will also be able go in and out of the house into the yard freely while I am home. Please note that the house is partially fenced and smaller dogs can slip under the gate.
About: Hi I am a stay at home mom to grade school kids. I love to have fun with our dogs while on our outings to the park, trail, or watching a movie at home. I love dogs and would love to watch and care for one. I have had dogs of various breeds throughout the years and love their company. I love to run/walk with dogs, play fetch, and cuddle with fur babies. My family and I are so loving to animals especially dogs. I have taught my children to respect animals and love them as if they are our own. My family and schedule has the time and love to offer your dog/puppy as one of our own. Please consider me to care for your doggy. I know how it is to have such a busy schedule and not wanting to neglect our fur babies . I can help with what you and your pet needs. I am home most of the time since I am a stay at home mom. I can give full attention to your walk/play or cuddle with your fur-babies . I have a fenced in big yard for my 2 dogs to play . I also allow our dogs inside home . I also love doing drop ins and will do what you ask to serve your animals. I want to make them comfortable.
“Lynette was wonderful with my fur babies. Because my doggies are older and require extensive care, I am very nervous about leaving them. Lynette made me feel comfortable. She tended to their needs and provided the extra care they needed. She is also extremely reliable, which is hard to find. I appreciate her so much!”
“She did an amazing job. Our 2 dogs are usually very shy and can take awhile to warm up to new people but they instantly loved Nadia. She followed all of our tedious requests to a tee. Will certainly be asking her to watch our pups again in the future!”

About: I grew up around dogs. I cannot remember a time in my life in which I did not own a dog. I love dogs with all my heart. Friends and family have always trusted me with their fur babies to dog sit and care and love them. I am also usually tasked with training their dogs to do basic commands. I have a lot of experience with dogs of all breeds. I have a couple years of experience volunteering at my local animal shelter, and even have an adorable Valley Bulldog mix as a result of volunteering. I could not resist adopting at least one of my shelter babies! I also currently own a black lab. I love my dogs sooo much, and I will take care of yours as I do mine. I work in the education field, so my schedule is FULLY OPEN from June throughout July. When school is in session, I am available from 4:30pm-10pm and open availability on weekends. I will be there to give your dog whatever care and attention they need, whether that is walking them for however long they are used to, feeding them or giving water, taking them outside to play, etc.

“We had a last minute event and she came through! We highly recommend. Great communication quick response, and punctual. We have a Great Dane Mastiff and an 14yo boxer who can be very needy in their own ways. She sent updates of potty breaks, meals and asked all the important questions. We will definitely request her again. Thank you for taking care of our babies!”

About: Hi, I'm Chelsea! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first with me. ❤️ I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your pets, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re with someone who will genuinely care for them like they’re my own. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and currently have animals of my own, including dogs, cats, rats, and reptiles. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do for work, it’s something I truly love. I understand that no two pets are the same. Some want all the cuddles and attention, while others need patience and time to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, respect their boundaries, and take the time to learn their personality and what makes them feel safe. I’m comfortable with dogs of all different sizes, including large and strong breeds, and I understand how important it is to stay attentive and responsible on walks. Trust is also very important to me. I’ve worked with the same professional cleaning company for about 10 years, so I’m regularly trusted inside clients’ homes and understand the responsibility that comes with that. You can expect plenty of communication, photos, and updates while your pet is with me. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without constantly wondering if your pet is okay. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or caring for your pets while you’re away, they’ll receive the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want someone to give my own. Because to me, they’re never “just a pet.” They’re family. 🐾 I work part time and have a very flexible schedule to help with yours and your pets needs,most of the weekends im available as well! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow your care instructions carefully, provide plenty of love and attention, keep a clean and secure environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also send regular photo updates for peace of mind.
About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life, of course I have had to learn and improve my skills from when I was younger. My family members have many pets which they rely on me to take care of when they are unable to. I am also going to school for a degree in biological sciences in hopes to find a career as a vet tech or anything which will allow me to work closely with animals. :) I am a 4th year biological science major at UC Merced. I hope to pursue a career which will allow me to work with animals closely while also spending time outdoors. I also am very interested in learning about animal husbandry and pet care. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings, perfect for when dogs need to go potty! My services are mostly in clients’ homes because I have two cats and a small house which will not be big enough for larger animals like dogs. The way I care for pets in clients’ homes will be up to the client themselves as every pet parent has different ground rules and boundaries for their fur babies. I will do the basics like feeding and playing but will refrain from most other things unless requested to avoid stepping over boundaries, especially in other people’s homes.

About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 12, including family members,friends, and also my own. I can care for all ages from newborn to senior. I can follow a diet or a certain schedule if needed. I know how our pets are family and they deserve to be treated like family. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to sit for you! I can also work around your schedule if needed. Ty I have a fenced backyard. I have 2 lovely dogs and one puppy. I have a doggy door inside to outside. I can provide a crate if needed. Your dog will have its own toys, own bed , blankets and pillows, water bowl and food bowl and much entertainment.
About: I’ve grew up w/ 2 little chihuahuas Brownie & Cookie which i’ve taken care of since I was 14! As I grew older, i adopted another doggie, Nala, who is now living in Doggie heaven since 2022. I enjoy Cats & Dogs in my space they’re great companions and I love their different personalities. After taking animal behavior during my undergraduate I’ve been intrigued with the behavior of pets more and more! I would love to get to know you and your companion!! I’m pretty free and home majority of the time, I am an entrepreneur so this is what I do. I hope I can sit your furry friend. I have a small minimalistic 1 bedroom home. Honestly, there isn’t too much for your pets to get into AND i do have a few pet toys if your companion likes to play
About: I have raised all of my dogs from puppies to be house trained and follow commands. I can follow a strict or lenient schedule depending on what your pets follow at home. I will always do my best at making your family feel as comfortable as possible! I am self-employed and have a very flexible schedule which allows me to take on multiple pets at a time and give them the attention they need. I have a fenced yard with four loving and energetic dogs. I am able to accommodate crate trained or non-crate trained animals. Your pets are always welcome inside as well.
“Shannon was AMAZING! This was our first time using a dog sitter for the weekend. She watched our three dogs. Two labs and a retriever mix. She came an hour before we left to get reacquainted with the dogs and get all their how to info for the weekend. Shannon kept us updated on the dogs and how they were doing and sent pictures to reassure us that things were going great! We will definitely be using Shannon again for future dog sitting.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,606 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Summit Terrace. 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 Summit Terrace 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 Summit Terrace 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 Summit Terrace 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 Summit Terrace. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
