“I hired Kaylee to sit at my home with my Belgian Malinois with separation anxiety. I appreciate her quick responses thru the Rover App, and her willingness to arrive for an early morning appointment. We will definitely call Kaylee again in the near future.”


About: I have always lived in a house with dogs. I have experience in administering medication to dogs anywhere from birth to the senior years. I have experience leash training as well as house training. I currently work a part-time serving job with very flexible hours. I have reliable transportation and can take same day appointments! I am able to check in as many times as needed as well as stay overnight, I do live in a house with a lot of animals so I don’t believe it would be a good idea to take other pets into my home but, I can guarantee to treat your pets and home as if they are my own when in my care. As a teenager I often did house/child/pet care for people in my community. I understand that I am a guest in your space and I can promise to act with respect, kindness, and integrity as I care for what is yours.

About: I know how to handle dogs well, I’ve had 10-12 dogs in total and hopefully that number keep’s growing. My dogs loved me, and I loved them, I never forget about them and I feel so comfortable with any dogs. I’m currently going to college and this term I have a linear schedule and the times I’m offering work very good for me because I don’t have nothing much to do after class because my classes ends at 1:45-1:50 pm and I do my homework when they end. I care for my pets in a nicely and organized way, also loving, very loving and I would care for the clients pets how the clients ask me to care for them but I would be most lovely to them and very very focused on them.
“Ysabel was great with Django and Walter! She sent us daily updates, photos and comments about their day. When we returned, the house was picked up, the kitchen was clean and the dogs were happy. We will definitely use Ysabel again and recommend her highly.”

About: I have over 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked as a pet sitter for three different families. During that time, I cared for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. My responsibilities included feeding, providing companionship, administering basic care, and following each family’s specific routines and instructions. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I truly enjoy being around dogs and love spending time walking, playing, and giving them the attention they deserve. I always make sure to follow each pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your home and your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. I keep the environment clean, provide fresh water, monitor their well-being, and give them attention. I believe clear communication is essential, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit.
“Ms. Maria was absolutely wonderful. She fully understood our fur baby’s unique situation and accommodated with pleasure. Besides requiring adherence to a specific routine, our little girl also has separation anxiety. Ms. Maria and our fur baby did so well together! On the human front: Mommy and Daddy were very reluctant to leave our little princess. Ms. Maria could sense that. Text communication updates and pictures helped to ease our minds and achieve comfort to relax and enjoy our outing. Based on behaviors displayed, it was evident that our little fur baby felt secure and safe. We are so happy to have found Ms. Maria and are looking forward to our next interaction.”

“I am so happy my first choice for a dog sitter was Stephine and Jon. I had never left my fur babies with a sitter before, so I was nervous but Jon and Stephine put me at ease right away with pictures and text messages. They stayed in our home and left it like we never left. Lucy and Molly kept looking for them when we got home!”

“Kaylah was awesome with both our cat and dog. She was very attentative and had much concern about our cat not eating the first 24 hours. But, the situation resolved with Kaylah’s attempts to make the cat comfortable with her. 😃 She is the first to follow feeding instructions and found our home very clean. She is highly recommended that I’ve already booked her for our next trip.”

“Anthony was the best! He was incredibly communicative and responsive both before the stay and during. He took great care of our pups and sent photo updates regularly. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Finding Ashley was more like a God sent angel to me. Here is why... I travel a lot due to my job, and when my friend moved away I was heart broken thinking I would have to give up my German Shepherd. I had never hired anyone to dog sit let alone house sit - and in today's world it is hard to just trust someone to be in your home alone. BUT - when I met Ashley, I felt instant peace with her, and even King my dog took to her - It was as if God was letting me know he was sending someone who was responsible, caring, loving and would take care of things while I was away - not to worry. If you are looking for someone that you can trust with your pet and home - there is only one name you can count on. Ashley is her name. And for the record - she is already booked with me again in December 2026. Hopefully that alone says much about her - so look no further.”

“Lili took great care of our two dogs and our home. She is very attentive to the dogs and they love to spend time with her. Leaving our pets when we travel is always so tough, but knowing they are being cared for by Lili has lifted a lot of worry off our mind. Thank you again, Lili!”

About: Ive been dog sitting here anther for the last 2 years but I am a 3 year experienced veterinary technician. I know I can give the best care to your fur baby such as potty breaks play times making sure they are set with food and water as well as walks if needed per the owner. I’m currently working full time 3 days a week at a Veterinary Specialty ER hospital and available to care for your baby through out the week including weekends. I have a fenced yard and a lovely neighborhood to go for walks. I have a couple dogs myself to keep company and play around or I can also keep separated if owner prefers that way.

I love animals with my whole heart and if I can lend a helping hand by taking care of your baby by all means!! Just making an extra income, by doing something I love. I’m going day to day with my schedule so I am a very open schedule gal! I have a lot of spare time on my hands. My cat is like my best friend. I love her as if she’s another family member, spoiled to a point lol. She’s a happy girl, I have a harness for her, sometimes she’ll go in the car or on walks. I’ve even taken her to the beach.
About: I don’t have issues with watching/walking more than one dog at a time. I’ve been pet sitting/house sitting for my friends/neighbor’s two dogs for the past 3 years. I have an 11 year old Shiba Inu who I love to death. Even though he can be a brat at time. My dog lives with my mom, so house sitting for you will not be an issue. I owned a cat for 10 years before he passed away. Other people in my neighborhood have relied on my to check in on their pets when needed. I’ve been around all types of breeds, big and small. Since I have a dog I know what pet care is like. - I have experience administering medications to dogs and cats. - I have taken care of dogs/cats of all ages - I can watch multiple pets at a time. My repeat family had two dogs and a cat I work full time down in San Diego. But I work from home three days a week so I can walk/check in on your pets during those days of the week. I can make myself available on weekends too. I will follow the care routine of your pet. I will cater to their feeding and walking schedule. I have a car so I can take them to dog parks (if requested) and vet appointments.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sycamore Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,376 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sycamore Hills. 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 Sycamore Hills 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 Sycamore Hills 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 Sycamore Hills 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 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sycamore Hills. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
