“Michelle was a past student of mine, but I didn’t know that until I met her!! She was friendly, and I could tell she loved what she did. I knew my dog, Otto, liked her!! I knew I would be leaving Otto in good hands. When I came home, I could tell Otto was well cared for! I would hire Michelle again, and I recommend her!”
“Nicole did an excellent job in our home for an extended stay of 13 days with our 2 dogs. She was great with daily pupdates and pictures-which were greatly appreciated because we missed our babies. She dispensed meds several times a day to our senior German Shepherd and was able to keep our very active, lovable, snuggly -yet sometimes naughty Whippet puppy busy. I knew from the minute I met her that she was a great fit for us and I’d use her every time we need someone to stay or drop in for us!”
“This is the third time Elizbeth cared for my two dogs and one cat. This was a 2-night house-sitting job. I can't say enough positive things about how Elizabeth ensured my pets' welfare. Both dogs are pretty sensitive and have been uneasy when we have been away in the past. Not so with Elizabeth! They had a great time playing and cuddling with her, and they settled in beautifully. When we got home, I could see how comfortable they are with Elizabeth. What a difference and what a relief! I recommend Elizabeth highly for her pet sitting skills and dedication to the best care for my pets.”
“Joey was fabulous! We set up a pre setting visit, and our dogs were immediately smitten with Joey! That set the stage for an amazing engagement with Joey. He sent daily updates and the cutest photos with clever & funny comments! Joey is a natural with dogs & we would highly recommend him!!!”
“We had a great experience with Shawna. Ali is a senior dog with some challenges but things all went as well as they could have . We were very happy with Shawna’s care of Ali which was most important. Will be calling in the future. Colleen and Gary Kogut and Ali too !!”
About: I’ve owned 3 pets of my own and trained them all as puppies. I’m very one on one with pets as I have a lot of extra time to offer. I am a full time animal nanny for my friends. A dogs typical day here whether it’s an overnight stay or daycare is ALWAYS fun! Pictures and updates will be given at least 1 time a day of your fur baby! Lots of supervised outside playtime in my large fenced in yard with bouncy balls and sticks! Potty time is every 3 hours unless a very young puppy (every hr or so). Playtime in the house is always supervised. Puppy safe and older dog safe with nothing laying on the ground other than dog toys when it’s playtime which is always haha. Fresh water is ALWAYS available! My priority is keeping every dog safe as possible. I also do grooming, deshedding, and even blow-outs! It’s all second nature to me. I can complete all this during their booked stay with me. Let’s have some fun! Dogs are family and should be treated as so. They will get lots of love and attention with lots of one on one time with me! I have a large yard with a fenced 6 ft privacy fence along with two friendly Pug fur babies to keep your baby company. If you would like to have your dog separate for any reason that is possible too. My house is very dog friendly and accommodating for any dogs needs.
About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I’m dependable and attentive. I make sure every dog or cat feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My schedule is very flexible and open, so I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays whenever needed. I plan around each pet’s routine. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect as my own. I follow any instructions or schedules closely, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: Growing up I’ve always had a pet, whether it was a dog, cat, bearded dragon, hamster, bunny, horses, chickens, etc. The past experience I have is from ages 6 weeks-18years old. I’m up for any task and have no trouble walking dogs who pull. I use a harness for one of my dogs and he is always comfortable walking with me. I currently work full-time but have a flexible schedule. I have three dogs and 2 cats of my own but have help with them. Can always adjust schedule as needed. I treat every pet the way I would want someone to treat my pet. I listen to rules very carefully and I’m a very trustworthy person. I also send updates on your furry friend!
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.

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 Varysburg 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 Varysburg 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 Varysburg 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. 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 .

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.
