About: What sets me apart is my lifelong dedication to animals and their wellbeing. Even though I’m just beginning my professional pet‑sitting journey with Rover, my years of real, hands‑on experience caring for animals has given me a strong foundation. I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve volunteered with shelters, helped animals I’ve found in need, and cared for family and friends’ pets, which has added to my experience beyond my own animals. I have over 10 years of hands‑on experience as a pet owner. I’ve raised three dogs — Zoey (Springer Spaniel), Stella (Pitbull mix), and Merida (German Shepherd mix). I raised Zoey and Merida from puppyhood, provided senior care for Zoey until she passed at 15, and rescued Stella, who is now a healthy 12‑year‑old. Managing multiple dogs has taught me how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs at the same time. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m open to caring for any animal. I can follow medication routines, special feeding instructions, and I have a reliable vehicle for safe pet transport, if needed. My priority is always creating a safe, loving environment where your pet feels understood, respected, and genuinely cared for. Every animal deserves to feel protected and valued, and I’m committed to providing that level of care every time. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full time, but I still have plenty of dedicated time set aside for caring for your animals. On weekdays, I’m available from 3:30pm–10pm EST for drop‑in visits, walks, or check‑ins. On most weekends, I’m able to offer flexible house visits or overnight stays, depending on what your pet needs. I care for pets with the same level of attention, patience, and love that I give my own animals. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress‑free. I can manage medication schedules, specific feeding regimens, and any comfort routines your pet relies on. I’m attentive to details, from monitoring behavior and energy levels to making sure your pet feels safe.
“Chelsea was amazing! During our meet and greet she asked how often I would like updates which I found very thoughtful, and I got both pictures and videos each update! Chelsea was so kind and even put sheets and towels in the wash before leaving. I’d love to book with Chelsea again!”
About: I spent 12 years in the Marine Corps and decided to change career paths. After I got out I found a different passion which was training dogs. Please read what sets me apart from every one else and if you still have questions afterwards then do not hesitate to reach out to me! -Your pet will have 24/7 supervision and company, if an emergency arises on my end I will immediately reach out to you and let you know, I will never leave your dog unattended because I would not want someone to do it my dog, therefore I always treat visitors with the same respect. -My dog Moxie is seen and treated like one of my kids and yours will be to while under my care! -I will keep in contact at all times and update you on their visit w/photos. -I am a professional dog trainer who does boarding on the side.

“Rachel was extremely communicative!!! She kept me up to date every visit, lots of pictures and videos and she loved my boys the same way I would!! Very appreciative of her service and will use her for future visits!”
“Arianna was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was amazing with our dog and even brought him treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and it was obvious he was happy and well cared for. On top of that, she even did a little light housekeeping, which was completely unexpected and absolutely not necessary, but so appreciated. It was such a kind gesture. We came home to a happy pup and a tidy house, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book Arianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”

“Kady was the most attentive, concerned and sweetest sitter we’ve had, she was so good it was like chatting with a friend about our babies daily on how they were doing, and the pictures she took and sent were priceless to us, I would most definitely recommend Kady, you will be pleased you did ?”
“Emma was put in an unusual situation with us moving immediate after our vacation, so she had very little comforts as everything was packed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 259 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wende. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Wende 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 Wende 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 Wende 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
