About: I love animals and have grown up raising, training, and taking care of their overall well being. I raised and trained a pitbull pup (Nova) until she was 5 years old, with experience from taking care of cats and dogs at the time, and I now live with 2 cats and 2 dogs! I've had the cats since they were 3 months old and are now 1 year old! Both dogs are still young and both are socialized so they know and understand boundaries and are pet friendly. If you have any questions you are free to reach out anytime! I work full time, 7a-3p. I like to give boarding dogs their own room while I'm away, and I have camera's set up in there in case of an emergency. When I'm boarding I like to take them out for a few hours before I leave, bring them inside, play and/or work on any training with them and make sure they have everything they need. When I come home first thing I do is let them outside. I have tie outs so I'll watch to make sure they don't get tangled, play with them, or just keep them company if they just wanna sit. While I'm home I do allow pets on the couch, I'll have the tv on, and hang out with them or play with them, depends on the pet. My availability on Rover may not always be correct, I may be boarding other pets or house sitting. I will always let you know what's going on and see if we can make an arrangement. Feeding, giving water, cleaning litter, giving medicine, playing with them, letting them outside and/or walking them. Some things like giving medicine will need to be specified and especially if you have certain feeding habits I should be aware of just let me know. I will also send you photo updates on how they're doing!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal attention and care I give to each pet. I take time to learn their routine, quirks and comfort needs so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both tiny puppies and kittens feeding bottles. To senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and treat every animal like my own—making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and comfort no matter their age or energy level. While working part- time subbing for elementary schools locally. I take on a few side jobs, I am a nanny so I have a flexible schedule, especially in the summer. I have one dog and three outdoor cats. I also have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to play and make themselves at home!
“Claire was amazing with Atlas! She would send updates and keep me posted on how he was doing throughout the week. When I got home the house was spotless and she even left a note letting me know how things went. She went above and beyond and I know Atlas loved having her around! 💛”
“I would totally recommend Jaylin to anyone to look after their precious pets and their home if needed too. We have never left our little dog before, only with family members. This time however, this wasn’t possible as we had to return to England to visit family and in particular 2 family members that were sick. A stressful time indeed. We decided to return for 2 weeks to see everyone we could and to get over the long journey. As soon as we met Jaylin we felt like our pets and home would be in safe, caring hands. Her kind and caring nature comes across when talking to her and her husband also. The professionalism came across too and they were very thorough at getting all the details for looking after and caring for our pets. Our older pup Abby had been very sick herself earlier in the year and needed insulin shots twice daily. It was also good to find someone who could take care of this. Jaylin stayed at our home with our precious babies. She treated our home with great respect and kept us updated with photos and updates every day which helped so much with our worries. We hope to see her again soon in a personal capacity and keep in touch and will definitely hire her again. Thank you Jaylin”

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 Youngs 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 Youngs 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 Youngs 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.
