About: I have taken care of dogs ever since my 20's but the last 13 years I have been house/dog sitting for the members of the congregation were I was paid staff. I absolutely love animals but dogs are my favorite. I have extensive experience with any breed from puppy to geriatric dogs. My goal is eventually to do boarding as well. I would love to come stay with your pet baby and love on him/her while you are away. I believe in spending time with the pets. I promise you I will become your pets best friend second only to you. Getting them some exercise every day if possible and lot's of cuddle's at night. I prefer clients with fenced in yards. I am currently not working so I will be with your pets through out the day. Recently my daily schedule has opened up so I would be with your pets full time. If you dogs like to ride in the car I would take them on errands with me. Really there are no obstacles for me to be able to be with you pets full time. I am looking for full time remote work from home work though. Then I can still do dog sitting at the owners home or my home while I'm working. The first thing I do when I get up around 8 or 9 is let your dog outside if it's a fenced in yard a walk if it's not. Then I feed them per whatever instructions you have left. In the afternoon we go out again for some play time and potty break. I usually will let the dogs out an hour after they eat and every 4 hours a day, For cats, I feed them first thing. Keep their litter box cleaned daily or every other day and depending on the cat's acceptance of me or their personality we will have play time and cuddles too.
“Amanda did a fantastic job with our boy! He really looked forward to her coming over and we can't wait to have her watch him again! She spent a lot of time with him making sure he was good and having fun.”
“Karie was awesome! She took the time to make a trip over to meet our dogs before her first stay, which was so appreciated. She sent us pictures during her stay and kept us in the loop. Great communication. I know my dogs enjoyed her stay and were looking forward to seeing her again soon!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life. I took 2 years of veterinary assistant schooling during high school, and am currently in veterinary technician school working toward an associate degree. I have worked at a doggy daycare for a year. I love all animals, and would be happy to petsit! 🩷 Im available in the early morning before school, and free after 3:30pm everyday. I would be able to spend most of my time with the clients animals in the evening hours. My weekends are free! I have 3 dogs who get walked daily and tons of playtime. I can accommodate any needs for a clients pet such as playtime, walks, crating, etc.
About: I’ve had 2+ dogs in my entire life. In my adult life I’ve had 2+ service dogs that travel with me. I am a critical care nurse who has taken pet CPR as far as safety. I have emergency meds as well. Luckily, I have a house with a fences in yard, animal friendly household with spare rooms and a heated/cooled garage/closed/secured garage for any kind of special separation needs (in heat/aggressive breeds/outside animals, etc). Currently off enjoying a break from work, .. . So as of now, my schedule is very flexible. My household/fenced backyard/garage, is sectioned off pretty nicely. So, I have a very flexible availability overall. I am very positive I can meet most requests/needs for boarding/grooming/daycare/etc. So just let me know! I have a three bedroom house with a fenced in backyard, doggie door, heated/cooled garage that is secure and closed off separate from the house with his own doggie door for added space.. is a very accommodating/adaptable layout also self-sufficient if need be, but I should be here the entire time
“Corrine was fantastic with our dog and cat while we were away! We received daily updates and pictures, she also went above and beyond and gathered the mail for us and took out our trash. We’ll definitely rebook with her!”
About: My name is Jess and I love ALL pets, any size or type! I worked at Petsmart in college for 2 years and know how to care for dogs, cats, horses, and exotic pets like reptiles! I provide patient, loving care and treat my clients as if they were my own. I work remotely from my computer and can sit with your pets all day or before and after my day shift. I have experience administering medications for pets with diabetes and other illnesses. I work from home and my hours are flexible, am able to provide pet care that is round the clock, Monday through Friday and on weekends. For drop ins on weekdays, I can come in the morning or later evening. Large yard, locks on all doors and windows. Would keep animals separate from my own animals if at my house. Never leave animals unsupervised in the home
About: I grew up with dogs, so i have taken care of them my whole life. I have also helped out friends and family members with dog sitting. I am currently working part time, so i have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your animals. I can stop by frequently or house sit as well. I have two dogs and i take care of them by feeding them, letting them out, making sure they have water, walking them, etc. i am very good with animals, and enjoy spending time with them.
“Shane is awesome! He took great care of our 3 goldens and 4 cats. He was very good with Tank (our high maintenance dog) and was able to keep him calm and happy. We got daily photos and updates. I never worried. Shane is trustworthy and dependable. I think the dogs were upset when we got home as they were hoping it was Shane. Thank you for taking good care of everyone while we were away. We will always look to book Shane for our pet sitting needs.”
About: I have owned dogs and cats since 1985 and was on a K9 Search and Rescue team for 18+ years so I have worked with all types of dogs and have a lot of experience with training. I currently work outside the home M-F 9-5 but can work from home upon request. Weekends I am home the majority of the time and spend most of my time hanging out with my own dogs (two labs) I have hosted a variety of dogs in my home including corgis, labs, goldens, frenchies, pitties, mals, and other assorted breeds. I treat everyone's pets just like my own - lots of treats, snuggles, couch naps, and of course sleeping on the bed if they want. Both of my labs are extremely friendly and love pretty much all dogs, but I do have experience sitting some dogs who preferred to be separate from my boys via either baby gates or kennels (depending on what the dog is comfortable with). I have a large fenced in backyard and a smaller fenced in front yard. The backyard has a doggie door that allows the dogs to go in and out at will, although when I am not home, I do not give any dogs access to the yard (even my own dogs as a safety issue).
About: I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels since I was young. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and giving medications if needed. I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I make sure I never overbook myself so every dog gets the attention they deserve. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I prioritize it in my weekly routine and stay consistent with walks, feedings, and playtime. I always follow each pet’s routine closely, whether I’m in my client’s home or mine. I stick to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I keep their space clean, safe, and calm, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to send updates so you always know your pet is doing well.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, with the majority of my hands-on experience in the last five years. I currently care for my own dog, Layla, and have also fostered, so I’m comfortable working with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels. I’ve potty trained three dogs, including my own, a foster dog, and a puppy I raised for about six months before transitioning him to my parents. That experience gave me a strong understanding of consistency, structure, and reinforcing good habits. I’ve provided both boarding and in-home pet sitting for multiple households, including homes with multiple dogs and homes with both dogs and cats. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I understand how important consistency, patience, and communication are while owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative throughout stays, and I treat every pet like my own. My dog Layla may accompany me during some house sitting stays depending on the pets and circumstances. She is friendly, social, and has done very well with other dogs during previous stays. I work full-time during weekdays, so I’m typically out of the home for about 9 hours during the day. Pets in my care should be comfortable with that schedule, and I make sure they are exercised, settled, and comfortable before I leave, with plenty of attention, walks, and interaction when I return home. On weekends, I’m much more available and hands-on, which allows for extra walks, playtime, enrichment, and cuddle time. Whether I’m boarding, doing daycare, or staying in a client’s home, I aim to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, behavior, and specific needs so I can provide consistent care and maintain the environment they’re used to. I live in an apartment with multiple grassy areas nearby for walks and bathroom breaks, along with an on-site dog park for additional exercise and enrichment. I tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I’m experienced with dogs of different temperaments and can reinforce routines such as feeding schedules, crate training, potty habits, and calm household behavior if needed. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I prioritize safety, communication, cleanliness, and creating a calm environment where pets can relax and feel at home.
“Kristie did an amazing job and was also very flexible with her schedule to accommodate our needs. Our pup was super happy to have lots of outings and snuggles while we were away.”
“Tori was prompt in arriving to pick up my house key and getting instructions. She followed up with questions that were relevant to their care that it hadn't occurred to me to discuss during her drop in. My dogs seemed to love her on their meet and greet, and I'm sure they were happy to see her when she came into my house. She was willing to fit us in with another client booked on a Friday night. It was greatly appreciated by my boyfriend and I. She came as many times as she said she would in the 5 hour span that we requested her services and reported back on what each dog did each visit, which I appreciated. She is a vet tech, which made me feel comfortable entrusting her with my pet's care. She followed my basic instructions exactly and followed up with questions when needed. She was very communicative, polite, and kind during the timeframe she worked for us. It requires a lot of trust to allow a stranger to watch your pets and have a key to your home. I trusted Tori with my pets and home and she did not disappoint. And now that I've found a Rover so close to home I'm sure to be a repeat customer! A big thank you to Tori from Sarah and her crazy labs! :)”
“Natalie was AWESOME with Grey! She came to meet him a few times, before she stayed with him, to insure he was comfortable with her. She was very good with Grey. She played with him more than we do, I am sure. She sent us pictures and videos multiple times a day. She contacted me if something arose that I had not mentioned or explained about his idiosyncrasies. He loves her, and so do we. We were concerned that he would want to go with her, when she left / went home from the stay!! That is how much she did for him.”
“Moon was absolutely amazing. We have 5 dogs and a cat. She took great care of our pets and made sure that they had plenty of play time, cuddle time, and of course, treats! She always sent plenty of photos every day and communicated with us throughout our vacation. All of our pets took to her right away and they were very happy and healthy when we returned home from our trip. We will definitely be using Moo. On our next trip.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 453 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Yellow Creek. 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 Yellow Creek 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 Yellow Creek 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 Yellow Creek 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
