“Sharon is like family after only one walk and a 4 day house sitting assignment. She is reliable, responsible, personable, flexible, and you get that from her as soon as you meet her. I would not leave my precious dog (in my home) with anyone I didn't trust, and I wasn't disappointed. You would be so lucky if she is available....my highest recommendation!”
“Deborah was a life saver. She took wonderful care of our dogs. She communicated regularly and sent pictures. She also took care of our home and brought in packages and mail. I will definitely be using her for future sits.”
“The zoo was well taken care of and loved. Thank you so much for cuddling with the old pup and playing with 3 cats! I never felt anxious about our pets or house while we were gone, thank you so much.”
“Bryanna is fantastic! We’ve never felt so relieved in knowing that we have a person we can fully trust and rely on with our pups. We have a senior dog and a puppy. That combo can be a bit overwhelming, but Bryanna was able to handle them effortlessly. We know we will be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“This was my first time using Sherry. My husband and I were very pleased and enjoyed receiving text and pictures of our pups. Even though we were on a cruise and had to wait a while for them to come over the phones, but all in all everything was wonderful. The pups were well taken care of, fed promptly at the correct times. Medicines were given at the correct times as well. I am already rebooking her for January. It’s so nice to go away on vacation and know that your dogs are being loved and attention given to them, it makes for an stress-free vacation.”
“As always, Jasmine was absolutely wonderful and caring with our puppy, Ares! She takes such good care of him, plays with him, and pays close attention to all his needs. I love getting her updates and photos while we are away. We absolutely love Jasmine and cannot recommend her enough!❤️”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole. 🐾 While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to pet care! I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and started pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors while growing up. Before opening my own successful pet care business in Miami, I worked in professional boarding and daycare facilities, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. It was there that I learned bathing, deshedding, nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and coat care. More importantly, it inspired me to create something different—a true home away from home where pets receive personalized, one-on-one care instead of spending their stay in a kennel. Over the years, I built a successful pet care business in Miami, earning the trust of hundreds of repeat clients, families, professionals, and even celebrity clients. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home most of the day, so your pup will receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, supervision, and companionship in a safe, cage-free home. I treat every pet like family and love sending daily photo and video updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved. As a little thank-you, every boarding currently includes a complimentary spa refresh before pickup with a bath (if needed), brushing, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, a nail trim (if tolerated), and a fresh spritz. I can’t wait to welcome your pup into our family! ❤️ I’m home full-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide consistent attention, frequent potty breaks, playtime, grooming, and loving personalized care every day 🤍 I provide a safe, clean, loving home environment with routine care, playtime, supervision, and attention tailored to each pet’s needs and comfort to give the best experience
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses and am comfortable with feeding schedules, fresh water, playtime/exercise, cleaning up after pets, and keeping routines consistent while owners are away. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive, patient, and detail-oriented with care. I understand that every pet has different personalities and needs, so I take time to follow routines closely and make sure they feel comfortable and safe in their own environment.

I prefer planned bookings so I can make sure I’m fully available to give pets consistent care, attention, and keep them on their normal routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets and someone’s home. I follow all instructions carefully and make sure I understand each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special needs before the stay. I keep pets supervised, make sure doors and gates are secure, and maintain a calm and consistent environment so they feel safe and comfortable. I also respect the home I am staying in by keeping it clean, organized, and treated with care, as if it were my own. Communication is important to me, so I am happy to provide updates so owners feel at ease while they are away.

“Stefanie was incredible! She sent me pictures of everything from the food to ensure she gave the right amounts, to the walks she took the dogs on to them having fun at the house together. It was so comforting to know she was there with my pups exactly as she said she would be! She truly loved spending time with them and i could tell . I have a very shy pup and she was able to get him out of his shell and on a walk with him which many people can’t do! I will 100% be calling Stefanie again! I hope she never leaves! 😍”
About: I’ve always been around dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of different sizes and personalities.

About: My family is grateful to still care for our 17 year old senior dog, Ace. We have had Ace since he was 8 months old. I have the energy to handle a puppy and the patience to handle a senior dog. I also have my own cat, Sophia. I truly understand the temperaments of both animals. I’ve been trusted to care for my own pets as well as my friends. I am available throughout the week as I am dedicated to Rover full time. I have my own vehicle so that makes traveling seamless. I am available from 10am-10pm most days. I understand that each pet will have their own specific way to be cared for. A pet is absolutely individualistic and there is no one way to care for everyone’s pet. Therefore, I will follow the directions as explained in order to keep the fur baby’s routine.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Timber Pines
Shantel is amazing. I don't even know where to begin. She was a blessing for sure. She took the best care of my fur babies and was so knowledgeable about so many things. I am so lucky to have found her and blessed. This was a first for us to have a sitter in our home, but I couldn't have anyone more respectful and prompt. Thank you Shantel for all you did and looking forward to our next getaway. Blessings to you and your mom ❤️

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 Timber Pines 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 Timber Pines 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 Timber Pines 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.
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 .
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.
