Highly-rated overnight sitters - Windmere
“Carly was amazing! We have avoided going anywhere since moving cross country as our senior Labrador retriever has arthritis and some hearing and vision issues. When we had to leave town for a family emergency, we were grateful to have found Carly on Rover and scheduled a meet and greet. There were no reservations after meeting her and seeing how comfortable our dog was in her home. Carly was accommodating for her needs and sent us pics and updates on her stay. We highly recommend Carly and will not hesitate going out of town again.”
“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”
“My dog had so much fun with Hannah, her dog, and two young girls, that I felt bad taking him back to our everyday life and routine.

We look forward to using her services again!”
“Jennifer is an AMAZING sitter! She has kept our little Ella twice and we will definitely use her again in the future. She and her family genuinely love dogs and it shows! It’s so important for us to know that our dog is in great hands while we are away. They have a fabulous set up inside and out for the dogs to run, play, and relax. Jennifer sent pics and videos to us all throughout our trip and it was so nice to see Ella and how she was doing.Our little Ella loves them and their dogs. Jennifer and her family are TOP NOTCH!”
“Another fun time for Athena. Lorna always sends photos and videos, so I know my Diva is taken care off. I know she plays hard, as she falls asleep as soon as we get home. Thanks Lorna for being the best dog sitter.”
“Sheryl is absolutely wonderful. She cared for our puppy like it was her own. Great communication, highly recommend. Would travel back just for her to take care of our dog! Thank you Sheryl!!”

From the moment I booked him, he was responsive and honest, making me feel totally at ease leaving my dog in his care. I received a picture and update every day, which I really appreciated. It's clear he loves animals, and my dog was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: We've always had fur babies until now. We had to let our last pet cross the rainbow bridge at 17 yrs old. We rescued him when he was 5. Such a sweet boy!! We've also had German Shepherds, a Beagle, Rabbits, and Guinea pigs. Experience with Puppies and Senior dogs. FYI--I tend to be a bit over protective. I was able to retire early, so I'm home ALOT! Home is my happy place. My husband of 31 yrs still works a few days a week but is also home often and loves animals. We have a fenced in backyard with grass areas, and a pool. I'm very protective and would take your baby out front on leash, and out back on leash or under strict supervision, whichever you dictate. We have a large front yard and side yard and live on a quiet dead end street which is perfect for walks. We also have a fairly large home where small dogs can get plenty of indoor exercise. Home is my happy place! I retired early so I'm home most of the time. My husband of 31 yrs still works a few days a week but is home other than that. He loves animals too! I have a fenced in back yard and a large front & side yard. I'm over protective and will keep your pet on leash outside and well supervised.
About: I love kitties and would love to be able to help cat owners out. Sadly my cat passed away in Nov 2025 from kidney disease. In those 6 years I realized how hard it was to find someone willing to help care for vacation. That’s what I think is so cool about rover!
“Kaylah did a great job! She’s reasonably priced and took good care of my cats. I would absolutely book her again. She sends lots of pictures and updates which I love. Very good communicator.”
“Highly recommend! Amanda was extremely conscientious. It was such a relief while traveling knowing that our cats were being so well taken care of. Amanda was wonderful with communication including detailed notes and pics each day. She went above and beyond! We will definitely book her again!”
About: Hello! My name is Natalie and I have always been drawn to all types of animals my entire life. We had multiples cats in our home growing up. At the age of 13 I volunteered at a local pets store, started working on a farm at 15 which then lead me to being AKC showmanship trained and traveling to show Shetland Sheepdogs professionally. After that, I ventured off to college and started my professional life. Along the way I have always had a pet or 2 by my side and would have had a zoo if my husband would have allowed it! I have rehabilitated and re-homed dogs and cats who either had some type of illness or behaviors. I love animals and will love yours too! I work from home throughout the week and have a cat and dog if my own. I am available any day of the week for drop off and pick up. Sundays we attend church and will not be available for pick up or drop off before 1:00PM. I have a large 6 ft fenced yard with plenty of space for exercise. I have a dog and cat in my home so if they play well together, they will be very entertained. If I need to keep them separate, that is not problem and I can easily alternate yard times so all have plenty of time out.
About: I’ve cared for cats for several years and truly love being around them. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and making sure cats feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I don’t just watch dogs—I pay attention to them. As a dog owner myself, I know every pet has their own personality, routines, and quirks. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual. Whether your pup needs playtime, companionship, structure, or just someone who understands them, I’ll care for them the way I’d want my own dogs cared for. Basic experience in some training. I’m available after 4 pm most days and all day on weekends. I’ll have more availability starting in July! If you’re interested, ask and I’ll see if I can accommodate! I care for every pet according to their individual needs and routine. In my clients’ homes, I work to keep things as normal as possible by following feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any household rules. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and updates so owners can feel confident their pets are doing well. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and lots of companionship. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for while their family is away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free, whether they’re in their own home or mine.
“Karen, as always, is the BEST! We use her every time we go out of town (which is frequently). She has both come to our house and taken our dog to her house for in-home boarding and WE LOVE HER! She sends lots of pictures and keeps us updated.”
“Since moving to Greenville a couple of months ago, we have used Sara several times to do drop-in visits for our kitty Oliver and are so happy we found her! She takes great care of him while we are away and always sends updates and pictures.”
“Thanks for taking good care of the cats and loving on the dogs. Sorry about Dot and Mia fighting. They do that from time to time. Dot likes to show off for the humans. I appreciate you coming out to our place and giving us some piece of mind.”
About: I have taken care of mine and my friends dogs for years. Large, small ,old and young, I care for all, loving the companionship only a pet can give. I am currently between jobs so am available for drop ins or overnight services any time with a couple of days notice. I am flexible. I normally keep the fur babies in your home, their own environment which is easier for them, no adjustments are needed. I will do as you do.
“Emma dropped in to watch my cats while I had to work out of town and took excellent care of them and made sure their needs were met while giving timely responses to any requests I would definitely rebook her again”

“Alexa was wonderful! She was great to communicate with and answered all of m questions! She took wonderful care of Rae and we love her and would definitely book again!”
“Brutus had a day of doggy daycare with Sheryl today and had a ball! She was so attentive to him- playing with him and taking him on walks. Sheryl sent pictures, videos and updates. She followed his schedule exactly. We couldn’t have been more pleased! We plan on using Sheryl in the future anytime we need care for Brutus!”
“Hannah was great with our 6 month old Husky puppy, Stevie. Stevie felt right at home with Hannah’s family and loved playing all day long. She came home happy and tired out. We will definitely use Hannah again in the future!”
“Hands down the best experience I have ever had with a dog sitter! Natalie was so dedicated to my sweet Heidi. I will have to admit, I felt some kind of way with how eager my sweet girl was to hop out of the car to go see and spend the day with Ms . Natalie 😂😂. This truly has been a perfect match for our family .”

“Erick was quick to respond to our request for day care and instantly showed genuine care for our very sheltered rescue dog. Our dog can be shy and easily startled, but Erick’s patient approach helped her feel comfortable. We truly appreciated his understanding and compassion”
“She did an amazing job mops was very excited whenever we came back and seemed super happy! I was in an area with no cell phone service, but she still sent me photos and updates and it made me so happy to see those whenever I got out!

About: As a military spouse I have helped care for our dogs and many of our neighbors dogs as well. From large to small, I love dogs of all kinds. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and our own dog loves the company of other dogs. I am a mom and am in nursing school, but pet care is the highlight of my day. My schedule is open during weekends during the school semester, and outside of that I'm fulltime at home. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat friendly home. I also have children at home, but they are 10 and up. I prefer dogs crated at night, but during the day they are allowed to roam inside or out in the fenced backyard and will be well taken care of with lots of friendly petting in my home.
About: I have had and cared for dogs and cats for many years. Growing up my family owned schnauzers. I currently have 2 Aussie pups that are high energy and lots of fun!

I have a fenced in yard and currently have two crates ready to be used if needed. If I will be caring for the dogs in your home, I am more than happy to follow your schedule.
“Baloo had a great time! It was a one-time visit, but Lorna was totally prepared for tiny Baloo by creating a safe environment for him. Lorna walked Baloo before I picked him up. I would absolutely recommend Lorna!”

“Heather is an amazing dog walker. We use her anytime we are unable to go home mid day to walk our dog Tyson. I have contacted her for short notice walks and I feel awful about it but she is very understanding and accommodating. We appreciate her a lot.”
“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”
