“Daniella is wonderfully attentive to our 4-month-old puppy’s needs. Ash is still in the midst of potty training, and Daniella patiently observes Ash’s cues to ensure he makes his potty breaks on time. She doesn’t hesitate to spend time with him in his indoor playpen, actively engaging him in play while ensuring his safety, especially now that he can reach the top panel at chest height. Daniella also keeps our daily journal up to date with Ash’s meals and potty schedule, which helps us stay on track with his routine. We’re so grateful for her care and attention.”
“Gabrielle provided excellent care to our home and our fur babies. We appreciate her communication and pics while we were away for the 8 days. Definitely will use her again.”
About: ~Cat Boarding Available~ Hi there! If you’re looking for an experienced and active sitter who will shower your pets with love while keeping them safe and happy, I would love to meet you! I’ve spent plenty of time around all types of dogs, including big, strong breeds, so I am very comfortable managing canine energy and practicing good boundaries. To make sure our outdoor adventures are as safe as they are fun, I focus my walks on small and medium dogs, or larger pups who are already pretty calm and collected on the leash. I happily offer dedicated home care with a touch of gentleness. I follow your pet’s normal routines and any pet care instructions you give. I enjoy providing comfort and a peaceful environment for all pets. I am also a cat mom of 4 and absolutely love all types of cats, so I am always happy to help with kitty drop-ins, feedings, and playtime too. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I currently have a flexible schedule. Whether your pup or kitten needs a last-minute check-in, a mid-day walk or your pet requires strict, timely medication schedules, I am around to help. When I am in your home, safety and respect for your space are my priorities. I treat your home with care, ensuring doors are securely locked, gates are latched, and your home is left exactly as I found it. I can follow strict instructions to ensure that your pet’s needs are met. I also love sending many photos on updates with every visit, so you have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have had pets since I was 11 years old, in fact, I was a dog and cat rescuer for many years. A true pet lover. Set your mind at ease by giving me a call so that you can leave with peace of mind that your pet will be taken care of with experience and knowledge. I have enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family for years. I would love the opportunity to meet your pet and companion. You can rest assured that your pet will be in safe hands so that you can enjoy your time off. I will feed, care and walk your pet(s) early in the morning and will return by noontime. I can also stay all weekend. I am very dependable and reliable. I currently work MWF from 9-12 PM. However, since this is only 3 hours, I am able to go back to my job as your pet sitter for the rest of the day. I lost my dog Lilli in 2021 and will get a much needed companion soon. Just a few years ago I rescued dogs and cats at the veterinary hospital that I worked with. I was the personal assistant/accountant for the hospital for over 20 years. I have learned about what types of medicine would be used for simple medical issues, what types of food for each type of nutritional need, condition and breed. I will take a pet first aid class to refresh my skills. I also have a sixth sense with animals if something is wrong or unusual. I will then contact you to make sure that you are aware as well. Good communication between the pet sitter and owner is very important. I will make sure there is fresh water always and a clean bowl. Exercise is important and play time to keep pets strong and healthy and preventing boredom. I also will keep up on medication with your instructions.
About: I absolutely love animals and will treat your babies like my own while you’re away. I have experience with senior, special-needs, and anxious pets, so unusual routines, extra patience, or a little extra care don’t scare me! My biggest goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re doing great. Also, I’m a chronic photo taker, so expect lots of cute updates of your baby! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM, so early morning walks and potty breaks are always welcome (they honestly bring me joy). Outside of work, I’m happy to check in as often as your pet needs. Need a late-night or even 2 AM potty break? I got you! Weekends are even better because I’m available all day to give your babies plenty of attention, walks, and love. I care for every pet based on their normal routine and individual needs. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else that makes them comfortable. I’m very patient with anxious, senior, and special needs pets, and I’ll never force interaction if they need space. Most importantly, they’ll get lots of love, attention, and of course plenty of photo updates!
About: I love animals and I love being of service to dog owners who want peace of mind when leaving their pup for the day week or month! I am a full time dog trainer, the only thing I am currently doing is training and caring for dogs full time all day every day. I have a fenced backyard, and I will be watching your pup every moment of the day to ensure their safety. As safety is my number one priority.
About: Been taking care of dogs and cats since 7 which includes family and friends pets. Enjoy going on walks especially when it good outside but it good all the time. I work part-time every monday, wensday and Saturdays for my church. I'm mostly free every day I usually work 5 -8 and wesnday 7- 9 so many things before or after that time would work great. I will always check on the dog or cat to see if any wrong or ok. if there something that dog or cat should not have i'll make very sure it will not be able to reach it always give the pet or pets company.
“Gabriela was wonderful! She remembered all the little things Bandit likes and made him feel so special! They went on 2 walks every day! He really likes being with her. Gabriela is very responsive to messages and always kept is informed of what they had been up to and how Bandit was feeling. We really can’t say enough good things about our experience with Gabriela. Your pup/Kitty is in good hands with her!”
“Donna was absolutely amazing with our Biscuit. She was incredibly well executed in terms of our dog's medication needs and care. She was so wonderful in her communications with us during our trip and considerate in her actions in and outside of our home. We would invite her back anytime and would highly recommend her services to friends and neighbors 😄”
About: I have over 10 years of experience in pet boarding and looking after the pets of my friends and family. I have assisted in training puppies as well as adult dogs, so I am more than happy to assist in training your animals while you're away by keeping up a specific schedule or regimen. I also have personal experience caring for elderly dogs as well as dogs with anxiety disorders, happy to work with them in any special ways needed. I typically find myself doing a lot of my busy work and essential activities in the afternoons and evenings. For this reason, majority of my availability for short visits will be in the mornings, but happy to discuss other arrangements if needed. I have a large backyard and property that your bestie will just love, if they stay over at my place. I have multiple sized dog beds so no matter babies size they'll have a lovely place to rest their head.
About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was in Elementary. Friends, Neighbors & Family have relied on me for any & all of their pet needs. From walking, house/pet sitting at their home or mine, grooming to running them to vet appointments, I have done it all!! I love all animals & I treat them like family :) I spend my days with our Whippet Mix, Bambi, who is 7 years old. She gets along with all dogs, any age. We have taken her with us everywhere we go since she was a pup. We go on daily adventures, whether we go to the park, on a little drive or just on a walk, we like to explore. We're available for pet services & boarding pretty much any day of the week, not much notice is necessary 😊 We have a 4 bedroom home, and it's just my husband & I, so there's plenty of room! We don't mind animals on our couches, we also have a couple of dog beds with blankies & pillows. We have a toy bin Bambi has free range of, but we can always put it away so there aren't any toy arguments if needed.
About: Ive had all sorts of animals surrounding me my whole life and family and friends trust me to watch over them when they are away, ill always watch over a furry friend! I have an open schedule, attending school only twice a week for just 2 hours most my days are free. Pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule! I care for my pets and anyone else’s with the most amount of love possible. From running and playing yo laying and relaxing, I love being around an animal.
“Margaret took great care of the pups. I think the dogs had such a great time in her care, they would have liked us to take a few more days of vacation. In all seriousness, Margaret is responsible, caring and we'll definitely reach out to her the next time we need pet sitting. I highly recommend her.”
About: I adore animals. I've had dogs and cats around my whole life, I'm the first person my family goes to for help when they go on trips. Willing to work with any creatures 😁 I work full time Monday through Friday, we can always chat about my schedule if you need! I'm normally home on weekends so I'm looking to fill the rest of my schedule. I live with my parents still so I can't bring pets into my home, but we have a husky malamute who we've trained to not eat our cats or rats!
About: I am a dog owner, looking to care for other dogs at my home! I have a very playful 2year old Labrador who would love to have company. Two is better than one. My wife and I would take care and keep an eye on your fur babies when you’re out for travel, short trips, vacaciones holidays or others occasions. I have a fenced yard for play and potty time. I also have a full house so you dog would never be alone because I work from home and so does my wife. We let our dogs roam free in the house.
About: I’ve taken care of a bunch of dogs and cats. I love them so much and I want to pursue my job as being a vet tech. I know I have certain prices on rover but just shoot me a text im very understanding I know money doesn’t come easy and im willing to work it out ☺️ I have dogs, cats and goats birds as well, so I’ve grown up around all sorts of animals and more than willing to do anything for them The animals at my home are well taken care of. They have a bunch of yards to run around in, but since I do live with my parents still if it’s possible, I will housesit at your house.
About: My love for animals runs deep—I currently volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I care for cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. From socializing shy pets to walking energetic pups and helping with feeding and cleaning, I’ve gained hands-on experience that’s taught me how to read animal behavior and respond with patience, love, and care. Whether I’m hanging out with a cuddly senior cat or keeping a playful dog entertained, I truly enjoy making pets feel safe and happy. I treat every animal like family and make it my priority to follow their routine and comfort level while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine easily. I work remotely and can adjust my hours as needed, which makes it simple to handle walks, feedings, or any last-minute needs that come up. I’m very careful when it comes to pet care. I always make sure the environment is safe, secure, and comfortable—whether it’s in my home or the client’s. I follow any specific instructions closely and treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of love, patience, and attention.

Our first booking with Gabriella was for nearly a week and I returned home to two very happy buddies! I could see that they were well cared for and my home was too. She is communicative and sent photos and messages as needed. I would recommend her and will hopefully be having her back.

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 Taft Mosswood 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 Taft Mosswood 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 Taft Mosswood 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 , 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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
