“If Ollie could write reviews, Melissa would have a five-star rating and treats for life. We recently had Melissa house sit for our golden retriever Ollie, and from the moment she arrived, it was clear she was exactly the kind of person you hope to find on Rover. Ollie warmed up to her instantly. We never had to wonder how Ollie was doing because she kept us updated with frequent check-in pictures. As a pet owner, that peace of mind is everything! She also went above and beyond with Ollie's exercise — multiple walks a day to keep him stimulated and happy. She clearly understands that a tired golden is a good golden! We came home to a content, well-cared-for Ollie, and he is already missing her. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further. We will absolutely be booking Melissa again. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with having a dog around the house, so I have always loved being around pets. The last two summers I have pet sat for families while they were on vacation. Some of the dogs I have taken care of have had medical needs, so I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I look forward to working and taking care of your pet! During the summer I have more availability outside of when I am on vacation. For house sitting services, I am happy to provide overnight care for your pet. There will be times I will leave the home to run errands, go to work, family time and etc. But I will make sure that your pet’s routine is kept in tact and that they get all the snuggles and love they need. I am a full time teacher so once the school year starts my availability will change. I will not be able to provide pet care in my home. But I can provide pet care in a clients home. I am able to provide walks, feed your pet, provide snuggles, and medication if needed. I will ensure the client home stays clean if I am booked for overnight pet care. If it is too hot outside I may limit the time for the walk. I will also bring a water bottle with a bowl to make sure your dog does not overheat.

“Alina was absolutely amazing with our dog, Nala! Nala is an anxious dog, so it was very important to us that she wasn't left alone. Alina spent all of her time with Nala and didn't leave her alone during the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also took Nala on lots of walks, and it was obvious how happy and well cared for she was. We received so many beautiful photos and regular updates, so we always knew exactly how Nala was doing When we came home, the house was absolutely spotless. Honestly, it looked like no one had even stayed there. Everything was perfect. Alina, thank you so much! 💛Everything was absolutely perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would trust you with Nala again in a heartbeat”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the wide range of experience I bring. I fostered pets from a shelter who needed extra care — many were underweight, had fleas, or were recovering from hair loss — so I’m patient and attentive with animals who may need special attention. I also grew up on a farm surrounded by cats, dogs, birds, and reptiles, so I’m comfortable caring for all types of animals and handling different needs. Families can trust that I’ll treat their pets with compassion, keep a close eye on their well-being, and make sure they feel safe and loved I work from home and create my own hours, so I am able to create a schedule that works perfectly for you and your adorable pets I have a large backyard that has a 10 foot fence, also, lots of shade. There are no other pets in my house so your fur babies wouldn’t have to worry about competing for attention

“Celeste was amazing!! My boys loved her so very much! I've had some not so great experiences leaving town and she made me feel so comfortable and reassured me that they boys would have someone around. I'm a pretty big homebody so it's important that someone is around for my cats. My previous experience was just a weekend, but the boys were left almost the entire weekend alone - they were terrified when I came home. This time, after Celeste, they came out, tails up, meowing! So happy and their normal selves!!!! I will definitely use Celeste again!!”

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 Wingate 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 Wingate 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 Wingate 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 .
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.
