“Carlie was fantastic! She was very responsive to my many questions. My animals liked her immediately and we have a very nervous dog. She provided daily photos and left my house exactly as we left it. I would definitely use her again!”
“Tyler was amazing with my boys! Sent regular updates and pics. The boys seemed so at ease and peaceful when we arrived home which was very comforting. House was also clean! He took out the trash and cleaned up around the house. Will be requesting Tyler every time we have trips out of town planned.”
“I had such a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of my cats and dog while I was away for several days. She was always easy to reach, kept everything clean, and came to check on my pets exactly as often as we had agreed. She sent me updates and photos during every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, my pets absolutely loved her and seemed very comfortable and happy with her. She is reliable, caring, and attentive, and I would absolutely trust her with my pets again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful and responsible pet sitter! ❤️”
“I had such a great experience with Katelyn watching Oakley! She stayed at my house for the weekend and took such great care of her. She was reliable, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Oakley was in good hands. I came home to a happy pup and everything in the house was just as I left it. Would definitely recommend her and would love to have her watch Oakley again! ❤️”
“Aubree was SO great with our doggies, Teddy and Millie! We made a last minute decision not to travel with our dogs and she was willing to come do a meet and greet and accepted the job very last minute, thankfully! She stayed at our home and made our sudden trip away for a family funeral much less stressful because we knew our dogs were in good hands. We have an older dog and a middle aged dog with potty issues, especially when routines change at home. Aubree was patient and willing to clean up after them and I’m so grateful for that extra work and effort. She also sent us pupdates while we were away and pictures! Her communication is always positive and reassuring, making it such a pleasure to know her and work with her! We’re already working on scheduling with her for another trip coming up!”
“Cynthia was wonderful. She kept in touch with us with pictures almost every half hour to an hour. She was very flexible in her schedule time and understood about the events happen to be moved that the military did we enjoyed her company as did the dogs we highly recommend her and are planning to use her again”
“Ella took fantastic care of my girls and my home. I got lots of pictures and videos, which I loved. I had a late flight home, and she was kind enough to wash the sheets and towels she used and remake the bed so I didn’t have to come home and do it late at night.”
“The girls always enjoy their stays with Tess! She communicates well, sends lots of photos, and gives them love. I will continue to use her whenever I need someone I can trust with my pups!”
“Jocelyn was great with my kitties! It was nice having her help with the cats to give me peace of mind. She gave updates and was attentive to them. I definitely recommend her, and will use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve never not had a dog growing up, I consider them some of my best friends. I am also the go to person when a loved one needs a petsitter, so I know how to care for all ages and sizes. I am able to feed, administer medication, walk, bathe, play with, and snuggle your sweet baby. I am very enthusiastic about animals and providing admirable service is my passion! I recently spent 6 months working at a companion animal vet clinic, as a kennel technician. I gained professional experience with specialized care and am able to execute any specific routines your animals requested. I also volunteer weekly to train future service dogs at a campus club and have been doing so for 8 months now! Because of this I am equipped with patience and comfortability around young dogs who are still learning their way around. As a college student I have a set class schedule. I am available Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays anytime before 10am and evenings after 3pm. As for Tuesdays and Thursdays anytime after 10am. Anytime after that I usually spend my time studying, at campus clubs, and filling my free time to hang out with animals! Because of this I am very excited to work with you to take care of your babies! I am flexible and confident that I will be able to meet your needs!! I currently live at an apartment with 3 other roommates, so I am not available for boarding. However, I am available for drop-in care and walks! I will be very mindful of your space and love nothing more than to assure you and your pet are comfortable & taken care of! I am able to accomplish any routines or special care that may be needed!!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and the hands-on experience I have gained caring for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have several years of dog-sitting experience and have cared for over 10 families, including one family for more than three years and still am a recurring sitter. I even started dog sitting before I could drive with my grandparents 10+ different pets, along with my other families 2 Giant Schnauzers and 2 cats. I am comfortable with feeding, walks, medication, accidents, bedtime routines, and giving dogs plenty of attention and playtime. I have dealt with a seizure prone dog with 7 different types of meds day and night with scheduled times. I also worked at an animal clinic and currently have experience working around large groups of dogs. Through these experiences, I have learned how to recognize body language, understand individual triggers, and safely handle different situations. I have also worked alongside veterinary professionals, which has taught me more about responsible animal care. Most importantly, I take the time to learn each dog’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have become very close with all of the dogs and animals I have pet sit for but also the owners. As a first-year college student, my schedule changes throughout the week, but I have plenty of availability around my classes. I have my own car, so I can easily travel for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I am generally available after my afternoon classes, in the evenings, and on weekends. I also have flexibility between classes on some days and can work around my sorority commitments with advance notice. I am happy to care for pets in their home, where they are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I always follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, medication, and bedtime. I also absolutely love cuddling with dogs and, if the owner is comfortable with it, I am more than happy to let them sleep with me, no matter their size! I take time to learn each pet’s personality, needs, and triggers so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away.
About: I lived with and around all sorts of pets since I was very young. As a teenager, I volunteered for a ranch where I taught other children how to properly care for pets. Your fur-family will be in good hands. I work part-time so I have plenty of time to love and care for your furry family. Whether its drop in visits, or overnight stays, I can tailor my schedule to yours! I am incredibly attentive to each pets needs. My own dogs have allergies and plenty of energy! We have a fenced in yard, but we love a good day at the dog park.
About: I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life, and I’m definitely the person who will ignore the humans in the room and go straight for the dog. I’m responsible, attentive and very comfortable stepping into a pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, medications, sticking to their feeding schedule or just providing some excellent couch companionship. Every pet has their own personality, quirks and very specific opinions about how things should be done, and I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m especially good with dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance when their people are away. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated so you know everything is going well and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention while you’re gone. Fair warning: I’ll probably give them a ridiculous nickname by day two. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can work around your pet’s routine instead of expecting them to work around mine. Walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime and bedtime can all stay as close to normal as possible. I’m also happy to spend plenty of time at the house, so your pet won’t just get a quick hello, a bowl of food and a disappearing act. If they’re used to having someone around, they’ll have me around. When I’m staying in your home, my goal is pretty simple: keep your pet happy, safe and comfortable while you’re gone. I’ll follow your instructions, pay attention to the little things and treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat mine. And you won’t have to wonder what’s going on. I’m happy to send pictures and updates along the way. I know you’re trusting me with your pet and your home, and I take both seriously. Even if your dog and I are having very unserious conversations while you’re gone.
“Anna was so good with my dogs and followed all instructions. She was super respectful of my home, and left without a trace. I felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of my two dogs, and upon my return home they were relaxed and happy. I will definitely be hiring Anna again! Wonderful!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, my dad was a professional dog trainer growing up and my family loves every type of animal! I will be active with your pet babies, and am looking forward to meeting them and maybe even meeting new pet friends for my animals! I am happy to board your dog(s) on the week days if needed, but I do work from 8 - 3:15 Monday through Friday, so on weekdays they would get a break in the morning before work, sometime between 11 and 12, and then when we get home around 4 pm. The weekends and most holidays are an open schedule! If your pet stays in my home they will be treated like my own, so like a spoiled king or queen lol. We are not weird about them on the furniture, cuddling on the couch or bed during a movie is encouraged!
“We hired Laura to take care of our dogs while we enjoyed a vacation. We felt so great knowing she was there with our beloved fur babies! Came home to happy pups along with no accidents to clean up! Laura made sure to reach out throughout our time away with pictures of happy dogs! We will definitely be hiring her again for any future trips we take. Thanks again, Laura!”
“Lauren was great with my pitbull Isla! She was very attentive and prepared to learn all about her and took great care of her and my house while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will plan to contact her again in the future.”
“Taylor was absolutely wonderful with our baby. She communicated pictures to us, and Kylo loved her. I will use her again, and I recommend her to anyone needing someone to stay with their fur babies. Thank you so much, Taylor.”

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 Wheeler 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 Wheeler 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 Wheeler 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 .
