“Makayla took such great care of our pups and our house when we were out of town! She was always very responsive and sent pics throughout her time here. We will definitely use her again; our pups loved her!”
“Krista is amazing with the boys! She doesn’t just make sure they are feed and let outside, but she plays with them and basically entertains them like you would kids! I don’t have to worry at all and can fully enjoy vacation knowing they are well taken care of!”
“Kailey took amazing care of my dog, cat, and home while I was away on vacation. She sent daily updates and photos that let me know everything was going well during her week long stay. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of countless roommates dogs, before getting my own a couple years ago. Before getting my own I did lots of research on training so she could have a happy, healthy, and safe life. I am committed to a dog’s safety and happiness. I am big on positive reinforcement which is how I’ve trained Buttercup. I’ve worked with multiple dogs on leash training, off leash training (minimal), potty training, and other general commands (sit, stay, come, heel, etc.). I have a full-time job and love hanging out with all the doggos in my free time. A couple of my workdays are fairly long, so I am more available later in the week. Pups (6months+) and dogs are allowed everywhere in my house except my personal bed. It is a modest home, with a fenced back yard (dog castle included). My dog, Buttercup, loves other dogs and is eager to play and be friends when they are. She has had interactions with both younger pups as well as much older doggos (up to 11 years old) and all interactions have gone well. While she’s on the medium-large end (70-75lbs) some of her best doggo friends range from significantly smaller (7-12 lbs) to much larger (100+lbs). She interacts well with different sizes.
“I was at ease since the meet and greet! She is extremely communicative and makes sure to ask questions if she needs clarification. My dogs have special needs, including reactivity, medication, and a crate and rotate system, and she handled it all very well. I came home to a clean home and happy dogs!”
About: I have a strong background in animal care, with a degree in Animal & Poultry Sciences and hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, livestock, and many other species. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician and in a variety of animal-care settings, including nonprofit veterinary clinics, wildlife sanctuaries, private practices, and animal shelters. I have experience with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs, so hopefully I can meet the needs of both you and your pets! I’ve been walking dogs in shelter settings since I was 15, including serving as a dog-walking volunteer leader. In that role, I helped walk dogs who were available for adoption as well as more cautious or fearful dogs who required extra patience and awareness. These experiences taught me how to safely read animal body language, respect their boundaries, and adjust my approach to each individual dog. I’m comfortable with energetic pets, shy or anxious animals, senior care, medication routines, and maintaining feeding and exercise schedules. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior or health and take pet safety seriously. I’m open to working with fearful or reactive dogs when their owners feel I’m a good fit. I have personal experience caring for a rescued pit bull who can be reactive toward some dogs and people, and consistent training has made significant improvements. That experience has also given me a lot of empathy for owners who struggle to find caregivers they trust, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you are in a similar spot. While I do have experience, I genuinely just love spending time with animals! I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and attention I’d want for my own. I welcome any questions or concerns you may have. I know finding the right fit for your pet can be stressful, and I’m happy to chat to make sure you feel comfortable and confident in their care. I work a typical 8-hour schedule in Manhattan during the week, usually from 7:00 AM–3:30 PM. While my workday is 8 hours, my start and end times can vary, so I’m happy to discuss alternative times if needed to work around your pet’s schedule. I’m flexible before and after work for dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, medication, or checking in on your pets. My weekends are much more flexible, and I’m available for multiple visits throughout the day or to spend extended time with pets who need extra company and care at home. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both your needs and your pet’s routine! When caring for pets in their home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding, medications, exercise, and any other instructions you provide. I understand that every pet and household is different, and I’m careful to respect both. I take animal body language and behavior seriously and always give pets the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me. This is especially important with shy, fearful, or reactive animals. I’m attentive during walks and make safety a priority around doors, gates, other animals, and unfamiliar environments. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Presley was incredibly communicative and professional throughout the entire booking process and was always quick to answer any questions we had. This was our first time using in-home care for Cooper, and she made us feel completely comfortable and confident leaving him in her care while we were away. She took such wonderful care of him, every photo update she sent had him literally smiling! It was clear he was happy, relaxed, and well loved the whole time. We will absolutely be re-booking with Presley and highly recommend her to all of our friends and family looking for someone to care for their fur babies!”
“Isabel was great! She stayed overnight with our two pups. Sent pictures and updates and the home (and bed) were left just as we left it. Would love to have her back again any time. Thank you!”
“Nick is so conscientious and definitely cares about our "high" need pups. He checks in and responds quickly to any message I send, even when I just let him know we're home because I'm pretty sure he cares and likes us too!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every age size and breed since I was 20. I grew up around dogs and throughly enjoy and care for each and everyone of them like they are my own family! As they are yours and deserve to be treated with as much respect and care when you’re outside the home! I do have my own pup who is very friendly and loves to play we come as a pair who will love to play with your animals! I work full time and do pet sitting/ walking part time! I’m willing to do drop in visits or staying in home to help the dog/cat acclimate to you being gone! Staying in home I will play with the animal dog or cat and take them outside for potty breaks (dog) sand will clean the litter box daily (cat). I understand each animal has their on personality so I would prefer to meet the animal prior to sitting so that we may get used to each other! I’ve watched and cared for many pets in the manhattan junction city area for years and would love to give your pet the love and care needed when you’re away!
About: The go-to friend if you need to go out of town to come in and check on your pets! Very flexible with house sittings and locations serviced. I do work full time Sunday - Thursday but I can use my lunch break to stop in! :) I work full time but I do have an hour lunch I can use to give your pet a break during the weekdays, free on weekends! (Fri/Sat) Pets are treated with care and respect. I understand they are the "boss" of the house while the owner is away and I will make sure they continue to follow a routine!
“We had such a great experience with Lilly! She took wonderful care of our dogs while staying at our house and kept us updated with photos. She took them to the dog park, gave them plenty of cuddles and attention, and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and safe! Especially when the storm came through. One of our dogs can be a little intimidating at first, so we were especially impressed by how quickly she gained his trust. She understood his personality, gave him the space he needed, and before long he was comfortable with her. Which is the sort of peace of mind that can be hard to come by, so that was greatly appreciated! It was obvious that she genuinely cared about them, and we came home to happy, stress free, well loved pups. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience having Kali stay with our dogs over the 4th of July weekend! She came by the house before our trip to meet our dogs, learn their routine, and get familiar with our home. Throughout the weekend she was an excellent communicator, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. When we got home, the house was spotless, our dogs were happy and relaxed, and she even surprised us with the sweetest painted portraits of each pup. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be using her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog and house sitter!”
“We have a special needs pup that needs a lot of care, and she had no problem taking on the chaos! We did a meet and greet, she was so friendly! During the stay, she was so good about checking in as well as sending multiple photos, which I loved. If she wasn’t sure about something she asked, and she followed all of our directions perfectly! My pups loved her and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Emma has by far been the best rover we have used since living here and would highly recommend her for your pets! She took great care of our two dogs who don’t like to make anything easy. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have worked with animals for many years. From my own pets to pet sitting jobs to volunteering in animal shelters and vet clinics. I will love on your pet and make sure all needs are met from cuddles to play time to potty breaks. I would love to not only just work with your pet one time but come back to help any time you need! I have worked with all kinds of dogs and cats. Each pet has there own needs and I want to make sure that when I am with your pet that those needs are met. I will make sure your animal is not experiencing any major changes in there daily life while you are away! Feel free to ask any questions you may have!
About: Since I was 20 years old, family neighbors, and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, water, and pet sit their dogs. I’ve taken care of dogs that are older and require meds as well as younger dogs. I don’t have a dog of my own yet but hopefully Rover will get me one step closer and be the final push I need! I am currently a full time student with a part time job but have Wednesday’s and Friday’s off and usually work mornings anyway. I will try my hardest to make most times for walks or drop in visits work but if I can’t I will let you know ASAP! I can feed and water your dogs, keep up with a possibly complicated night time routine, and take them out whenever they need to when I’m with them. I’m also able to take them to specific places if needed to go on walks, whether that be a fenced in park, a dog specific park, or just around your neighborhood!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 123 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Zeandale. 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 Zeandale 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 Zeandale 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 Zeandale 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
