“As a first-time River user, we were a bit nervous but Peggy was terrific! She was knowledgeable, patient and understanding with our little nervous guy and they ended up being friends by the end of the weekend. Will definitely use Rover again!”
About: I love dogs. A few years ago our family’s dog, Lacy passed away at 13 years old. She was a beautiful black and white English springer spaniel. She was so fun, energetic, and sweet. She’s missed everyday. We’re not ready to get another dog yet but since I love being around dogs I thought that caring for dogs would be a fun thing to do. I’ve had experience taking care of my family’s dog for 10 years. Growing up with her, I took Lacy for walks, fed, played with, and cared for her. I’ve house sat my cousins 3 dogs a couple times, whenever they go on vacation for one to two weeks at a time. I’ve also done day visits for one of their neighbors dogs whenever they go on work trips for a few days. I’m looking forward to walking and spending time with your dog(s)! I currently am in between jobs and I’m looking for part time work. I thought dog walking/sitting would be a nice temporary job since I love dogs. I would follow my clients instructions for the care of their dog and the dogs needs. This would include their nutritional needs as well as exercise and play time.
“Charlotte puppy sat for us this past weekend and did a great job! It was our first time leaving our two puppies and we are new to the area. However, I instantly felt I could trust Charlotte at the meet and greet and she sent lots of pictures to update us on how the pups are doing. She did a great job and spent a lot of time with our puppies which was so important to us! We would definitely recommend her!”
“Alexandria was a stand-out from the first interaction. I knew she was paying close attention to instructionsand concerns, because she would repeat back to me her understanding of why it was important to mention. She also offered assurances on points that I might not have thought of. I have two dogs, and I was worried about her getting pulled down stairs or losing control, because they are strong. I was grateful that she offered a solution to that right away, suggesting she be accompanied by her friend. Without hesitation, she supplied the friend's ID. Terrifically helpful was receiving a text message from her the day of our big night out while we were busy with other things, so it was a good reminder and a timely one that she was planning to be punctual and would let us know when she was 15 minutes out. It was additionally helpful that she was so flexible with changing the start and end time. We offered her the option of leaving when we were delayed in returning, but she insisted it was no problem to stick around, and she and her friend gave a thorough report of snacks as directed and digestive outcomes on walks. We're still enjoying the pictures and videos of our dogs' time together with Alexandria. Hope we have opportunity to book again.”

“Caroline kept in touch at least once a day and sent pictures of my dogs. My dogs did have several accidents that I found in other rooms and on my rug a few times. When I got home my dogs had no water and both were extremely thirsty. I did ask her to get my mail daily and put it on the counter, however, that didn’t happen and my mail box was over filled. Overall she did a good job, my little dog seemed a lot lighter because he doesn’t eat when I’m gone, they are both back to themselves today.”
“Koda did an amazing job!!! We got pictures every night and our pups looked so happy. They told us they had a fabulous time and can't wait to hang out with their new friend again. Our house was tip top when we got home. I would definitely recommend Koda!”
“Anthony and his wife Becca were EXCELLENT dog sitters and such kind people. I met them before the stay and knew they would be great. They immediately greeted Tia and played with her. I couldn’t be more happy knowing my dog was in such good hands! She gets anxious when we leave and I’ve been told in the past that she doesn’t eat well when we’re gone. Day one she was already eating all her food with them and they even sent me a picture! It eased my mind knowing she was comfortable with Anthony and Becca. I saw her some back from some walks on the ring looking so happy! They also sent me pictures and updates! Thank you so much Anthony and Becca!”
“I recommend Marisol and would give 6 stars if I could. She stayed in our home and watched our large anxious dog over July 4th when there were massive storms. I did not have to worry one bit about our dog's nerves, as she did everything possible to comfort him when he was scared (stormed for days!). She followed all of my instructions beautifully, gave detailed updates, and left my house clean and tidy. Marisol exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely use her again and refer her to my friends and family!”
“Michael stayed at my house and took care of my Athena while I had to go away a couple days. He came out a day before to meet the dog and me and he is absolutely the best super nice guy very polite . I will hire Michael to watch my baby girl anytime left my house nice , I seriously can’t say enough good about Michael”
“Thank you so much for caring for my fish, pups, and plants. I hope you were comfortable. I would definitely book again. I would even like to see your band play again. I really enjoyed the last time. I follow you on Facebook so maybe I’ll see one that’s close. Be well, Angelique”
“I can't recommend Jed highly enough! He truly saved the day by accepting my booking at the very last minute. He was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and professional. Most importantly, Mazi adored him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
About: I have had a dog for most of my life. I would love to care for your dog like I care for my own dog ❤️ Currently, I work part time so I can be flexible for your dog needs. I have the summer off from work so can be available for you. I treat dogs with respect and want them to feel comfortable when I am around. I like to keep dogs active when they need it.
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.
About: I’ve raised two animals from 4 months old, so I understand the patience, consistency, and energy animals need. I’m experienced with basic commands, crate training, and potty training. I treat every pet like family and focus on building trust with both the animal and their owner. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or reinforcing good behavior, I bring calm, reliable care to every visit. I work a hybrid schedule, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care throughout most of the week. I'm available during early mornings, lunch breaks, evenings, and weekends, so I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or playtime. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I enjoy the companionship and love making time for it. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I stay consistent with feeding, walking, playing, and potty schedules, and always clean up after your pets. I respect your home as if it were my own, and I always make sure doors are secure and your pet gets plenty of love and attention while you're away.
“Miguel was fantastic! I got tons of updates, I could see that my dog was getting the very best care. Would definitely recommend Miguel for a dog sitting and walking.”
“Kamile was incredible. Very calm and made me feel super comfortable leaving her with my dogs and my house :) very responsive and handled a bunch of medications for the dogs well.”
“Caroline was a great sitter for our dog and cat! She took the time to meet with us prior to house-sitting to learn more about our pets and their routines. It was apparent that she is a dog lover and has a naturally gentle nature. She was extremely flexible and understanding about our last-minute schedule changes and sent updates with photos throughout her stay. I would highly recommend Caroline and look forward to rebooking in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Welco Corners
Nicole is wonderful! She cared for our herder dog Scout and my parents' senior maltese Tessa in our home for a last minute trip. We were so fortunate to find Nicole! She's very caring with the dogs, knowledgeable and conscientious of each dog's care info. Nicole was transparent and pleasant, sharing photos and pupdates throughout the day. We really appreciated the extra care, effort, and patience with Tessa. Nicole was exceptional and we'd certainly book with her again!
Laina was such a blessing! We had a recent medical diagnosis for one of our pups and needed to find a sitter that was knowledgeable and experienced in medication/injections/special needs and that could handle both of our pups while we were out of the county, and we could not have found a better sitter in Laina and her husband, Bill. They gave consistent updates and photos, provided so much comfort to us, and allowed us to trust they were in good hands and enjoy our trip. The dogs loved their stay, the backyard, the home, and Laina! Would recommend 1 million percent! THANK YOU!!
Ella did a good job caring for our dog. She was communicative and kept me in the loop of what was happening. She didn’t send a lot of pictures but that’s not super important to us, I’m sure she would if requested. She left our house clean and picked up. I would recommend Ella for your pet sitting needs.

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 Welco Corners 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 Welco Corners 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 Welco Corners 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.
