“This was my first time having a pet sitter and Heather made the process so seamless. She provided constant updates and photos of my fur babies. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and will definitely be working with Heather in the future!”
“We are so thankful for Amanda! She took such great care of our elderly dog over the weekend and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, she showed up early, and he even went the extra mile by cleaning the sheets afterwards. Truly wonderful experience. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”
“Olivia took very good care of my fur baby Izzy. She communicated well and ensured that she understood the instructions on taking care of my baby. I wasn’t worried about Izzy at all while I was away. I would definitely recommend her, she’s awesome!”
“Tiana did an excellent job caring for our home and our two dogs while we were away. From the very beginning, she was professional, thoughtful, and attentive. She even took the time to meet with us and the dogs before her first day to make sure everyone was comfortable and that she understood our routines and expectations. She even took notes during our conversation which immediately gave us confidence that everything would be handled well. Having someone stay in our home made a huge difference for our dogs since they were able to remain in their familiar environment and seemed much more comfortable. Throughout her stay, Tiana kept us updated with photos and little check-ins, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, our dogs were happy, well cared for, and our home was just as clean and organized as we left it. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Tiana to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet and house sitter.”
About: We’ve looked after all kinds of animals! (And believe me I mean all kinds) I’ve been official in pet care for 5yrs, and my husband has 3yrs animal obedience training! Our family has always trusted us as the official pet sitter due to our patience, responsibility, and compassion. We take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, and our genuine love for animals shows that. Whether they’re playful, senior, shy, or require extra attention, we care for every animal the way we’d want someone to care for our own—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I run two of my own businesses, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to dedicate a lot of time to caring for your pets! I’ve been a CNA for 8 years, and after 4 years in healthcare, I branched out and started my own service. I’ve also owned and operated my pet care business for 5 years! I love being in healthcare, but my true passion has always been animals.🐾❣️My schedule is generally open unless I have something already planned, and I’ll always communicate with clients ahead of time about my availability. I’m also lucky to have my husband by my side! We’re truly a little power team when it comes to caring for your fur babies. He has 3 years of animal obedience training and is an entrepreneur who helps with our pet care in his spare time. When I’m unavailable, he is there to help take over and make sure your pets continue receiving the same loving, dependable care. Because we work as a team, you may interact with or receive care from both of us during your pet’s stay. We’re committed to treating every pet like family and making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. 🐶🐱💕 We provide warm, loving, and dependable home for pets of all kinds. We live in a family oriented neighborhood with plenty of space in the house, as well as a large front and partially fenced back yard! (And a large deck for those who love to sun bathe!) Our neighborhood also forms a circle great for walks on a leash! We take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply offering companionship, we treat every pet like family. We guarantee the care you receive for your pets is the same kindness, patience, and respect I would want for our own. I also offer extra kennels, leashes, bowls, and toys for those who are in a rush and simply forget!

I can provide pictures and A detail report every time I visit your pet! If you have any questions feel free to message me in the app. I am very flexible and hassle free!

I will be motioning and sending videos and photos to each and every parent often! Thanks
“This is the second time we have used Rachel and we are already getting on her calendar for next time we travel. Barley seems so comfortable around her that it gives us such comfort while being away. She loves our big guy just like we do! Thanks Rachel!”
About: I've taken care of a goofus labador retriver named Ginny for many years along with mulitple cats. My love of animals led me to getting my first job at petsmart pet hotel. I love playing and loving on all pets as much as I can. I'm currently working part time for another technical company from the hours of 9am to 530pm. I mostly likely can do friday through the weekend for sitting. I have enough experience to know what to do for dogs and cats. I will play with them. I will ask for any names or things that will make them comfortable and my top concern is letting them know that I will love on them and I am safe.
“This was my first time using Rover and will use them again especially Canija. She is the best and we truly appreciated her for taking care of our fur baby. Most definitely will use Rover and Canija again. Happy Customer! Onnesta G.”

About: With 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats in their homes, I understand how important it is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for everything from young puppies to senior dogs, including multiple dogs in one household and high-energy dogs who need plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable following individualized routines, including special diets and oral or topical medications/treatments. I’m also happy to learn and follow your pet’s specific care instructions to make sure their routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away. For active dogs, I’m more than happy to match their energy—I’m willing to go on whatever length of walk is appropriate for their needs rather than treating exercise as a one-size-fits-all service. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime or prefers a quiet, relaxed day at home, I’ll tailor their care to them. I know that house sitting is about more than just caring for your pets. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own, and I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and affection while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care, including daytime visits, walks, and overnight house sitting. I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and can accommodate their individual routines and needs. My availability will become more limited when I begin my full-time position later this year, but I will keep my Rover calendar up to date and only accept bookings I can give my full attention to. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions and your pets’ normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, exercise, and other special care needs. I’m attentive to safety and will make sure your pets are secure and comfortable throughout my stay or visit. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 16 years old and have many years of hands-on experience with pets of different personalities and needs. I regularly dog sit for family and friends and also spent a few years working in an animal shelter, where I gained additional experience caring for and interacting with animals. I also have experience cat sitting and am a proud dog owner myself—my dog, Marshall, is a big part of my life! I truly enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I currently work from home and have plenty of free time to care for your pets, with open availability; this can be adjusted to anyone's schedule. I have an open backyard and plenty of room for your fur babies to explore, but even having my own pet at home, it would take away from caring for yours. I will always provide a loving and safe environment for all pets.
About: All Dog and Cats are welcomed !! I’ve had a dog since I could remember. Every time I come across any other dogs they become so clingy and don’t leave my side. Dogs are an emotional support for me personally. I’m very gentle, caring , patient and a little too generous with treats I’m working full time as of right now. I Also will start early in the morning for feeding , play time and walks. I can also make the dogs as part of my weekly routine I have a large room for playing and zoomies. There is also nice parks around for walks. I don’t have a fence as of right now but it’ll be one soon
About: I’ve been around dogs since age 9 I love to give dogs the love and attention that they seek weather they’re old or young whether that’s playing fetch dog walking or boarding. I love it all, and I have the passion for it all. I’m currently a college student and a summer camp counselor I have two pups myself I will ensure that your pup or your dogs get all the playtime and cuddles and love and exercise and walking that they need make sure they’re full from meals that I prep for them. I’m available at all hours during the week and the weekend overnight if needed. I currently live in work year-round at a summer camp where there’s tons of grass and land for all their Zoomies and to play fetch if needed, I can crate them or keep them inside.
About: Since I was a child, I've had a strong affinity for animals and have always adored fur pets. I've been caring for animals since I was ten years old. I've worked with senior dogs for four years. Neighbors and friends have entrusted me with keeping an eye on, walking, bathing, and feeding their pets. I also kept an eye on chickens. I figured rover would be a great way for me to interact with a variety of furry friends. I can work full time on weekends and part time and weekdays because I’m still in school. But I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and drop ins on weekdays. I don't keep pets in cages because I don't want them to feel confined. I do accept pets on furniture, but if you want your pet to be crated I will allow it. I also have a very large yard for your pet to run about in.
About: I have experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pet. I’m patient, loving, responsible, and will treat every pet like they’re my own.

I’ll also follow all instructions carefully and keep you updated with pictures and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is receiving plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because my schedule is flexible. I have time throughout the week for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets the attention they need. I carefully follow every pet owner’s instructions and respect their home and routine. I provide fresh food and water, safe walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also send regular pictures and updates so owners know their pets are safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve spent 25 years caring for animals, and dogs have been by my side through all of it. I know that every dog is different, whether yours is a high-energy pup, a laid-back senior, or a nervous rescue still learning to trust. I offer walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention, and I’ll stick to your dog’s routine so they stay comfortable while you’re away. I’m confident giving medications, handling strong or reactive dogs with patience, and working with dogs who have separation anxiety. I pay close attention to body language, so I can spot signs of stress, illness, or discomfort early and let you know right away. Your dog’s safety comes first: secure leashes and gates, never leaving them unsupervised outside, and following your instructions to the letter. You’ll get daily updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy. I have a super flexible schedule! I work part time and can accommodate most days and times. Weekday and weekend availability! Most needs can be met! • I lock up every time I leave, and I never share your address, access codes, or travel plans. • I keep gates, doors, and windows secure so no one slips out, and I never leave pets unsupervised outside. • I keep your vet’s info and emergency contacts handy, and I’ll get your pet to care immediately if needed. • I follow medication and feeding instructions carefully and log them. Your home: • I leave everything clean and tidy, including litter boxes, food bowls, and any pet messes. • I stick to the areas you want pets and me in, and I’m happy to follow house rules. • With livestock and farm animals, I close gates and latches properly, check fencing and water, and keep feed secured.

Jordan is amazing with our Sugar. The pictures and videos she takes the time to send are a perfect treat for us when we are away from our girl. Jordan went above and beyond to help me out with watering some outdoor plants. We appreciate her communication and love for Sugar in our absence.

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 Sunny Side 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 Sunny Side 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 Sunny Side 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!

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.
