About: I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, whether that’s helping reinforce basic training and potty routines or being extra patient with older dogs and any special care they need. I also bring over 10+ years of babysitting experience, so being patient, attentive, and dependable is second nature to me. That same level of care and responsibility carries over into how I treat your pets. I am currently a graduate student at the University of South Alabama. Other than class, I have a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions you leave, including medications or special care. I’m respectful of your space and make sure your home stays clean and secure while you’re away. I also spend quality time with your pet. Whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, so they’re not just being “checked on,” but actually cared for.

I will love your dog like it’s my own and spoil it like it’s my own child. I don’t have children yet but I think it was a good analogy. :) If you would like to talk with me on the phone I am happy to get the know the owners as well! I’m also pretty fit so even if your dog has a lot of energy I’ll be able to keep up for sure! I hope you consider me. WHAT I OFFER: 1. Dog and Cat Boarding 2. Dog and Cat Check-Ins 3. Dog Walks Im currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pup! We can go for plenty of walks and have plenty of play!

About: I’ve been handling animals ever since I was 13, this includes cats, dogs, and even bunnies! (I had one that I let free roam). Cats and Bigger dogs are always a personal favorite but I truly love animals and even considered going into veterinary sciences! I can assure you, your animal is in great hands seeing as I have a cat and two dogs myself! I’m a current part-time nursing student who uses this as a sort of side job on top of my normal job that i work at full time (30hrs a week), but i still have a lot of time to care for critters of any kind! Whenever I’m at my Aunt and Uncles for up to a week dog sitting and house sitting for them, I make sure to feed both of their dogs and let them out at least every 1-2 hours especially after feeding them, and they stay outside for about 30mins-1 hour, but i don’t mind walking animals at all either! And of course I like to cuddle up with animals if they allow me too and give them play time as well as a little down time to cuddle up and be content!

“I would book Kamryn to watch Diggs a thousand times over! She took extra time and care to make sure he was comfortable with her (he’s scan be pretty anxious with new people). She updated me several times a day about potties and feedings and took her time to hang out and play with him. I felt so comfortable leaving Diggs in her care!! I cannot thank her enough for the extra steps and reassurance she provided me that he was in the best care while I way away!!”

About: I have owned numerous pets and cared for many more like they were my own. Deep affection for critters and intentional about caregiving for these precious family members and homes. I’m also good with plants and fish! I am a contracted fisheries observer in the Bering Sea, and take seasons off when I'm able. This allows me a very flexible schedule in my week and this August-December. I can drive to the pets and homes which need my care and take pets on hikes, walks, play dates, give baths and meds, and/or any other needs they have. I can also ensure the home is locked and secured and kept tidy.

The dogs seemed to be having a great time, and were their usual bouncy selves upon our return, which makes me feel a lot better about leaving them in her care. I would recommend Jill for your petsitting needs.”

“Brittany was GREAT! This is our first time using Rover and I have been skeptical, but I have no regrets now after using Brittany for a full weekend with our three dogs. We have a large breed dog and two dogs with special requirements and she had no issues bonding with them and walking them on their leashes. She spent lots of time with them during each visit and sent lots of pictures and updates for each visit. I always have very high anxiety when boarding my dogs or leaving them with a friend, but with her my mind was completely at ease the entire time. We will definitely be using Rover and Brittany again for our future needs!”

About: Since 2016, I’ve provided loving, reliable care for dogs of every size and personality. Whether it’s overnight house sitting, medication support, long walks, or simply being a comforting presence, I make sure each animal feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I communicate clearly and consistently, keeping you updated so you can relax while you’re away. My approach is gentle, attentive, and tailored to each dog’s routine and emotional needs. With references available and years of experience, I offer loving care when you can’t be there—because your dog deserves to feel at home, even when you’re not. I currently work part time and do online school part time. I am a hospitality coordinator at a business and then am working towards my ultrasound tech degree. I am gone for about 6 hours a day for work and then can spend the rest of the time at your house or dropping by to care for the dogs. I love movies and being a home body, so it is the perfect fit for me! I do not care for pets in my own home. I am available for overnight sitting in your home or drop in care. I care about safety and making sure it is secure and locked each time I leave. I wash the sheets if I stay overnight and make it seem like I was never there except for well-cared for pets.

About: I had a dog for almost 19 years of the first 20 years of my life. She was a sister to me so I understand that pets are family. When I take care of pets, I act as though they were my own. I give them all the love and attention they might want! I am willing to play fetch on end, take them on walks, take them to a park or on a hike, feed or walk whenever needed, and any other special requirements that the pet might need. I am very flexible and understand that certain pets require certain kinds of care. I work in office most of the week so I am usually only available on the weekends. I am usually available or can be flexible with enough notice. I cannot host in my own home but treat others’ homes as a guest. I try to stay out of the way as much as I can, depending on what you prefer me to do with your pet. If outside is preferable, we will stay outside as long as the heat permits! I am respectful that play time can be disruptive within the home and do my very best to be respectful when in someone else’s home.

“Tara was amazing! She sent daily updates at the end of the day (per our request) with pictures, walking route, and activities they did throughout the day. She spent lots of time loving on and playing with our dog, and she went above and beyond taking her to the park and through downtown during the day. She was a wonderful house guest, and we think our house may be cleaner now than when we left. We would love to have her keep our dog again no question!”

About: I have 4 years of experience with almost every breed of dog and cat imaginable so I can provide specialty care based on your individual pets needs! For over 4 years family members and clients have trusted me to handle potty breaks, playtime, feeding time, and medication for senior care of their pets! I work part time during the week so my schedule is very flexible for potty breaks and house sitting. I have one client that I let out for potty breaks weekly in the Mountain Brook area, others are scattered availability. I can care for your pets and home by making sure they have lots of attention and playtime throughout the day. In senior pet homes I have no problems cleaning any accidents quickly and efficiently while making sure your pet isn't embarrassed. Additionally in senior pet homes I can adhere to strict medication schedules on time and with lots of positive reinforcement.

About: Hi! My name is Adrian, and I've been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I grew up helping care for large dogs and have always been the person my family relies on to feed, play with, and look after our pets. I especially love large breeds and enjoy spending time outdoors, playing, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'll treat your pets with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'm currently very flexible and have plenty of availability throughout the week for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Because my schedule is open, I can dedicate plenty of attention to your pets instead of rushing between commitments. I communicate regularly, send photo updates, and always make sure owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. For everyone's safety and comfort, I currently only offer care in my client's home. My family dog is not comfortable around unfamiliar animals, so I don't provide boarding in my own home. When caring for pets in your home, I carefully follow your routines, make sure fresh water is always available, maintain feeding and bathroom schedules, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a clean home

About: Hi, I'm Jess! I spent the last 10 years working as a professional dog groomer, and I just moved to Alabama from Utah. At home I've got two dogs of my own, a big lovable mutt and a tiny chihuahua, so I know exactly what it feels like to hand your dog over to someone else and just hope they'll be gentle and patient with them. Over the years I built a lot of my clients through word of mouth, because pet parents trusted me with their most precious dogs and kept coming back. I've worked a lot with older dogs who need extra care, anxious dogs who need a calm and steady hand, and puppies who are still figuring things out. That kind of experience taught me how to read a dog, slow down when they need it, and make sure they actually feel safe with me, not just tolerate the visit. I know how much your dog means to you. They're not just an animal you take care of, they're part of your family, and trusting someone else with them is a big deal. I want to be that person for you, someone you know will treat your dog with the same love and care you would. I work flexibly from home, which means I'm around most of the day and able to give your dog plenty of attention while you're away. I'm not squeezing visits in between other jobs or rushing through a walk, your dog gets real time and real companionship. Whether it's playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company throughout the day, I have the flexibility to make sure they feel comfortable and loved the whole time you're gone. I will be home 99% of the time. I have a large backyard and 2 fur babies of my own to keep yours company. We have crates, water available 24/7, and separate feeding rooms if needed.

FAQs for House Sitting - Yellowleaf Creek Estates

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Yellowleaf Creek Estates on Rover is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $42 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 561 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Yellowleaf Creek Estates. 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 Yellowleaf Creek Estates 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 Yellowleaf Creek Estates 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 Yellowleaf Creek Estates 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yellowleaf Creek Estates. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
