House Sitting in Waterloo

“She is amazing! She took really good care of my dogos and they seemed to like her. She took them to the park and my dogs loved snuggling with her!”

Kristina H.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my pets. Linda was wonderful, always updating me throughout the stay, sending pics and accommodating all my pets’ needs. She was an excellent houseguest and was so courteous. She really is one of a kind and my pets warmed up to her immediately. I have a feeling she spoiled them more than we do!!! She walked frequently and even let them sleep with her. Linda really made our trip away from home stress free since we knew our animals were in good hands. She was a blessing.”

“Sue did an amazing job! She communicated everything going on with our pup and sent a ton of pictures. It looks like our dog had a great day!!”

Aimee R.

“It was a pleasure to have Haeli help us with sitting our little fur boy, Milo, who has severe separation anxiety. Haeli is great in communication and was very flexible and friendly.”

Kaveh R.

“Jackson was fantastic with our dogs! One of our dogs, Ivy, is a little shy, but took to him so quickly. He took care of them for over a week and gave updates and pictures throughout it all. He took incredible care of the house while we were gone and it was so clean when we got back. I know our two girls had so much fun with him! Would recommend using Jackson to anyone.”

Devon R.

“Trina was a blessing to our family! We were able to truly relax on vacation while she was at home with our Hank! Even when an unexpected blizzard hit and our home lost power, she communicated with us and made sure Hank was taken care of going above and beyond! Trina is truly an awesome person to have in our home and we can't wait to book her again!!!”

About: I have been caring for family and friend's pets for years. I love to cuddle and play with your pets and care for them as if they are my own! I am self employed and make my own schedule working from home. With no kids or pets of my own, I have the flexibility to care for your pets as needed based on their schedule I am able to care for your pets where they are most comfortable- in your home. This includes caring for your home as you prefer. I will kennel or cuddle your pets based on your preference.

About: I have owned and trained dogs in the past. I am quite alert to body language and willl meet your pet with respect and patience. I currently work full-time at a “day job “, but I am willing mornings, afternoons and evenings to make house visits as your schedule may require. I have great attention to detail and will follow all instructions given. If there is a special diet or any other special instructions, you can feel confident that I will diligently care for your pet while you’re away.

“i have never felt more comfortable leaving my babies in someone else’s care than i did with ella. she sent morning and nighttime updates with photos, played with them every day, and cared for them like they were her own. on top of that, when i got home from my trip the apartment was clean, the dishes were done, and she had left little report cards for both of them detailing how they did at mealtimes, with meds, and just overall during the visit that i stg i’m going to keep forever bc they’re so cute. she truly went above and beyond and i can tell that it’s bc she really just loves animals and enjoys caring for them. i can’t wait to hire her again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and experience with pets of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience training puppies with basic commands and crate training, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets who may need medication, extra patience, or mobility support. I’m also highly reliable and communicative I always keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so they feel connected and reassured while they're away. My calm, friendly approach helps pets feel safe and at ease, whether it’s their first time with a sitter or they need special care. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and that personal connection makes all the difference. Pet care fits into my daily routine as a consistent and rewarding responsibility. Every morning starts with feeding my dog and taking him for a quick walk to get some energy out before the day begins. In the evenings, I usually spend about 30 minutes either going on a longer walk or playing fetch at the park. On weekends, I make time for grooming like brushing his fur or giving him a bath if needed and sometimes schedule vet checkups or pick up new toys or treats. It’s a routine that keeps me grounded, and it’s always nice to end the day with a loyal companion by my side. When caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and consistent environment. For dogs, I ensure they have regular feeding times, fresh water, daily walks, and playtime to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I also follow any specific instructions the client provides, such as administering medications or adhering to training routines. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s regular schedule to reduce stress from their owner's absence. I clean up after the pet, monitor behavior for signs of illness or anxiety, and send updates (with photos) to the owner for peace of mind. Whether it’s overnight care, walking, or short visits, my goal is to make each pet feel safe and loved while their owner is away.

“Jenna stepped in last minute when other plans unexpectedly fell through, and I am sure it was meant to be! She was wonderful to have sitting at our home, we never felt anything less than completely at ease with her being there. She did a fantastic job taking care of our rambunctious corgi and kitties, we look forward to using her Rover services again!”

Sharifa K.

“Mark did such an excellent job caring for our 2 dogs while we were away! He was incredibly communicative the entire time and regularly kept us updated. One of our dogs has a bit of separation anxiety and he did such a good job comforting her through the first day of us being gone. He also probably gave them more exercise than we typically do 😅 and was very trustworthy in our home. Would highly recommend him!!”

Sara J.

“Craig was great, my animals liked him the second they met him. Very good with cats, my sphynx likes to ride around on his shoulder. Will definitely use Craig in the future!”

Steve S.

“Scott was amazing. My pups were well taken care of. I did not have to worry about anything. They were not hyper when I returned and my home was in better shape then when I left. I cannot thank Scott enough.”

About: I grew up on a small ranch caring for all kinds of animals: goats, chickens, parrots, bunnies, dogs, cats, and even fish. Being around animals has always been a part of my daily life, and I’ve learned how to care for them with patience, attention, and love. Whether it’s walking an energetic dog, helping with medications, or just giving a pet some extra attention while you’re away, I’m someone people trust to show up and care like family. No matter the size or species, I’m comfortable and confident handling it all. I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I’m currently home from college and mostly helping my parents out around the house, so my schedule is super flexible For drop-in visits, I typically stop by every 4 hours, starting around 8 AM and continuing until about 10 PM. I usually spend about an hour outside with your pup in the morning to get them some fresh air (and make sure they get that important morning potty break!). In the evening, I like to take them for a 30-minute walk to help them burn off energy before bedtime. My schedule is flexible, so I’m happy to adjust visit times or frequency based on your pet’s needs and your preferences.

About: My family has more than 20 years of pet care experience. We have also searched for boarding houses, so I know what pet parents want. A clean boarding house is good for the health of pets, and I clean and disinfect my house every day. My home is close to the park. We take them to the park every day. Exercise is good for the health of pets. I am a graphic designer and usually work at home， so I have more time for pet care. My daughter is a student right now at high school and after school, she can take them on a walk, so we have plenty of time to take care of them. I have a 6-foot fenced yard, also a whole basement for them. They can roam freely in the house, no smoking, and no little kids. I will check them every 2 hours to see if they need anything.

About: Hello my name is Jason and I have grown up with dogs my entire life. My most recent dogs were a yellow and black lab (Cooper and Carter). As they aged, Cooper became a diabetic which required insulin shots twice a day. Unfortunately he also loss his eye sight because of it. I was his eyes and he trusted me where ever we went. They both lived to the young age of 14 years old. Sadly, I don’t think I could handle the loss of another loving dog but I would be honored to help take care of your lovable pets whenever you need it. I work full time but I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can take them for a quick walk or if you need someone to stay while you’re out of town I can work from your house. I would be happy to take care of your pets at your house. Whether it’s taking them outside during the day, taking them for a walk, or staying a few days while you’re gone, I am happy to help.

“This was our first time using Rover for in house dog sitting and Danielle did a great job! She gave our high energy puppy lots of attention and kept us updated. Look forward to having her help us in the future!”

Mikaela G.

“Rachel stayed a week to watch our dogs and did a great job. She sent lots of updates and the dogs were very happy. She was able to accommodate instructions for diet and medication needs and very thorough in her notes. The house was also very well kept and just as we left it. Would definitely recommend and book again! 10/10”
