“We had Jaymee sit for Maxie about 24 hours including an overnight. Jaymee is a kind, lovely young lady- she is very loving and empathetic towards Maxie- I’m sure all animals. Given all her great qualities and how happy Maxie was we will definitely use her again!”
About: Hi! I'm Michaela. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, small, medium, and large! We always had a family dog growing up and now as an adult i have two little rascals of my own. Growing up with dogs i have learned their behaviors inside and out as well as plenty of experience with walking, feeding, light training, pet sitting, etc. From my experience, i have had the pleasure of pet sitting, walking, and boarding for multiple family members, friends, and clients from various dog walking services. Dogs have brought, and continue to bring, joy to my life every single day and i would love the opportunity to meet your furry best friend! My boys get along with everyone and enjoy having furry friends over to play with. They are updated on all their vaccines and are on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. I work Monday thru Friday from 730am to 4pm and my boyfriend works 930am to 6pm. Your pet would be alone for about 6 hours. I want that to be very transparent. A lot of people work full time jobs so hopefully, that won't be a problem. My neighborhood is quiet and safe. Butters goes on multiple walks a day, your furry friend joining would be a bonus and no problem at all. We also live a short drive away from multiple walking paths and Rock Cut State Park. Butters is in a kennel during the day and Batman is left out in his wheelchair and primarily takes naps. I have extra space for your pups kennel and can even section Batman off in a different area of my apartment. I do currently live in an apartment, however, there are lots of nature trails nearby. My boys are friendly and always up to play. I have a large basket of toys and lots of treats to reward good behaviors.

“My dogs do great under Allison's care! Allison is very communicative and my dogs are always happy when I return. I have a dog with very particular health and behavioral needs who has not done well with other sitters. It is such a relief to be able to leave town and know Allison can handle his particular needs.”
“Probably the best sitter we ever had on rover. I can’t say enough for what Brynna did- she was amazing with our pups and kept in touch all the time. We went away on a cruise and my husband forgot his birth certificate and Brynna was home with our fur babies and was able to find it while we were in Florida and take a picture for us and send it to me via text. I mean she is the best!!! She kept the house spotless, she followed all directions with meds, loved and snuggled all our pets and did everything amazing. She is worth every penny and more. She is so easy to talk too and she is such a sweetheart! Highly recommend”

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 Westmoreland 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 Westmoreland 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 Westmoreland 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
