“Kaylee was such a delight! Shady looked so happy in all the photos she sent me, and she made sure he took all of his allergy meds the whole stay. She kept me informed and updated about him all weekend and I had peace of mind my whole vacation knowing my baby was well taken care of. I will definitely be calling her next time I go out of town!”
About: I've been around animals of all kinds since I was young. I even lived on a farm at one point in time working with animals ranging from rabbits to cattle. I've done volunteer work at shelters and taken care of dogs and cats belonging to friends and family. I also have my own pup, Pace, who I've taken care of for over 9 years. I love all animals, especially dogs, and have experience with walking, feeding and taking care of many breeds of all sizes. I am a full time college student, however my afternoons are almost completely free during the week. Boarding or overnight sitting throughout the week is off the table, however I will be as flexible as possible to accommodate drop ins, walks and sitting during the day. While I don't have my own place at the moment, I have experience with dogs in almost any home environment. I have no problem with structuring and handling feeding, walks or playtime. I might even enjoy it more than they will.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover! I wasn’t able to have pets growing up because of my families allergies, but that didn’t stop me from treating my neighbors and friends pets like my own! I’ve had plenty of experience taking care of dogs from dachshunds to mastiffs! I also love cats and volunteer at CAA regularly. I know how important it is to make your pets feel safe and loved! I’m currently a full-time student at LSU! My schedule is very flexible outside of classes and I have plenty of time for walks, playing, cuddles, or just company. I’m more than happy to work with you to create a routine for your pet. Your pets safety and happiness is my responsibility and top priority. I will always follow your instructions, respect your pets space, and make sure all their needs are met. I’m happy to send pictures, videos, and updates often so you can check in!
“Lincoln was amazing! He stepped in for us at the very last minute after another sitter canceled, and he truly saved our trip. He took great care of Cash & Milly, kept us updated, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy pups and a well cared for house. We’d absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

“Savannah was amazing! Nash had a great weekend with her! She was very good at communicating and she took great care of him. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future!!”
About: As a veterinary student, I have experience handling and caring for animals through veterinary school, clinical experiences, and shelter volunteering. My training has taught me to pay close attention to an animal’s behavior, comfort, appetite, and overall well-being. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and caring for pets that may need a little extra patience or attention. While pet sitting is not a substitute for veterinary care, my veterinary background helps me recognize when something seems unusual and communicate concerns quickly with an owner. Hi! I’m an LSU veterinary student with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. As both a veterinary student and pet owner, I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pet while you’re away. My veterinary training has given me experience with animal handling, recognizing changes in behavior and comfort, and administering medications. I provide attentive, individualized care and make sure owners receive regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. As a veterinary student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I’m very intentional about only accepting bookings that I can fully accommodate. I plan pet care around my class and school schedule to make sure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I’m generally available for evening care on weekdays, with additional flexibility throughout the day depending on my class schedule. My weekends tend to be more flexible. I’m happy to coordinate with each owner to maintain their pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and medication routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a veterinary student, I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice anything unusual. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine and your specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household safety. I also understand that every pet has different boundaries, so I take the time to build trust and allow them to interact at their own pace. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your space with respect. You can expect regular updates and plenty of pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, but I really gained hands on experience once I started college. I’m an Agricultural Science major on the pre-vet track at Southern University A&M College, so I’m around small animals and livestock almost every day. I also help care for the police and therapy dogs on campus through my internship, which has taught me a lot about behavior, patience, and safe handling. Friends, family, and neighbors have always trusted me with their pets, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give the ones I work with at school. Majority of my classes are online this semester so pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and weekend care. I only care for pets in their own home. I actually prefer it because most pets feel safer and more relaxed in a space they already know. With my pre veterinary background, I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and routine. I follow whatever schedule you already have in place and make sure they get the same care they are used to. I keep things calm, clean, and comforting so your pet feels secure while you are away. My goal is for you to feel at peace knowing your pet is being cared for by someone who truly understands animals and loves what they do.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was a child. When I turned 16, I started dog sitting my family's and neighbor's dogs whenever they needed me. I have plenty of experience with anxious and high-energy dogs, as these are some of the types of dogs I've taken care of. I'm currently a full-time college student with a very flexible class schedule. I only have one class a day so I have plenty of free time to dog sit. I can take your dog out for walks, dog parks, pup cup dates, or just stay in with them. Whatever you're most comfortable with! I also would update y'all as often as possible.
About: I am a design student at LSU. Beyond my 7 years of experience in pet care, I grew up with and took care of 4 dogs, 2 cats, fish, and a lizard (his name is peanut). I love keeping owners involved, so you can expect photos, updates, and little moments from your pet's day while you're away. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they're part of my own family. I am currently a full time student at LSU. However, I have a flexible schedule so I will be able to work around that commitment. After years of caring for pets, l've learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs and I take the time to make sure each pet feels understood. You can expect clear communication, timely updates, and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to hamsters, guinea pigs, and even reptiles like turtles and lizards, I offer compassionate and reliable pet-sitting services. As a pet parent to my own two cats and two dogs, alongside my caring boyfriend, I understand the importance of providing a loving and safe environment for your beloved companions. Having provided pet-sitting for my family for many years, I am eager to extend my care to your furry, scaly, or feathered friends! I’m currently only working part time as a bartender and a server at 2 different jobs. So managing my time is pretty easy considering I can request off easily in advance or get a shift covered by someone else if necessary. I reside in a spacious 3 bedroom house in Baton Rouge with my boyfriend, providing ample space for pet care. While I'm unable to host other pets in my home due to my pit bulls reactivity, I do have experience with aggressive dogs. My pets follow a strict daily schedule, maintained with my boyfriend's help. As an owner of larger breeds (Pitbull and German Shepherd), I'm comfortable handling bigger dogs, even in apartment settings, thanks to daily walks down three flights of stairs at our old place. I'm also experienced in administering medications and catering to pets with special needs, ensuring your pet receives the personalized care they require.
About: Have resided with small dogs such as yorkies up to large dogs such as cane corsos. Have also worked with K9s during my time spent working in airport cargo Im currently unemployed so my schedule is very flexible when it comes to my daily/weekly routine. Pet care is my #1 source of employment. I have a full sized car available for outings. I clean up well behind myself & respect other peoples space & boundaries. I follow any rules & regulations put in place for the good of the pet & integrity of myself
About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was 5 years old. I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years as a boarder before I permanently moved to Baton Rouge. I go to LSU and major in animal science. I have medicated and taken care of anxious/aggressive dogs. I am patient, gentle, and I take account that each pet is a family member to each owner. I am currently enrolled at LSU majoring in Animal science. I have wanted to foster or get a pet of my own since moving here but I have not been able to, so I decided to make my side hustle helping others with the things I love to do. I update my colander regularly, but sometimes things come up, just message me! I am easygoing and easy to communicate with. I have a fenced little yard and I enjoy walking around my gated neighborhood, so I will do so with your pet. I follow instructions well, I am aware each pet is different and have their own personality. I’m slow and a quick learner, since I have handled hundreds different dogs for a handful of years. If I am ever confused on an instruction my first instinct is to contact you to make sure and not just “assume”.
About: I have been around and cared for canines for over 25 years, although not in a professional capacity. I have always had dogs growing up (golden retriever, boxer, beagle, German shepherd, cane Corso). I am experienced and well versed in caring for animals! I am currently working part time as I transition out of active duty military service back into civilian life. I will be getting my masters (New Orleans Seminary) in about a year. So for now, I have a very open schedule and am able to accommodate! For me it is important to listen to what the client wants and to ensure that I continue the same routine for the pet. I will not deviate from your instructions. I’m conscientious and adaptable in various environments. Also I’m definitely aware of the heat in south Louisiana, I grew up here!
“Annie was the best! She took fantastic care of my house and my animals. She was flexible and saved my life for this last minute booking. I would absolutely use Annie again and would recommend her to anyone to use with the confidence that your animals and home will be cared for.”
About: I've owned pets my entire life. I have personal experience caring for a range of dogs from Mastiffs to chihuahuas. I also own 3 cats. I currently have a flex work schedule the allows me to leave work during the day or early if I need to check on animals! I live in a gated community, with a gated dog park across the street. My balcony is blocked off to prevent cats from jumping off.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Zeeland Place
Jamie was incredible to work with! From the start, she was very easy going and communicative and we were pleased with the updates provided while we were away. We were greeted back home with a sweet note, clean apartment, new treats for our pup, and even a nail trim for him! You can tell she puts a lot of care into her stays and we would love to recommend or use her again!!
Harley was amazing with our dogs!! She asked so many good questions during the meet and greet and her interactions with them put our minds at ease before we even left town. She was a great communicator while they were in her care, and she even worked on some basic command training with our newest fur baby. She was attentive to their care and took good care of our home while we were away!
Cassidy was the sweetest! She was so kind and patient with our Great Dane, Daisy. She sent updates frequently and sent pictures. I had a stress free day knowing Daisy was safely with Cassidy. She would absolutely always be my first choice anytime I needed a sitter.
Cameron was very thorough with the requests we had for our pups. She was responsive throughout our booking and any concerns that came up. We returned to happy pups who got lots of love and attention that they are used to. We received pics and updates daily. When we returned home, we found the house looked clean and no messes. She took care of the property/belongings and cleaned up after herself and the dogs mess. Trustworthy. I would definitely recommend and use again :)
Anna was fantastic. She spent so much time with our animals and took really good care of them. She sent tons of pictures and kept us informed. Our pets seemed to really enjoy their time with her and we would highly recommend Anna as a pet/ house sitter. She was amazing.
Eleana was truly amazing! She provided tbe best of the best sitting with the detailed updates and check ins, not afraid to ask questions, and taking care of not only our pack but also the house and yard. We will definitely be using her again. We recommend her with full confidence for your fur babies
Michael did an excellent job taking care of our little dachshund. Communicated well, sent lots of pics, and spent time with her which we really appreciated. She is an older doggie with special needs which required specifically timed medications which Michael had no problem doing. He took her for short walks and gave her cuddle time. Our home was left very clean. Highly recommend him as long as we get him first!
We were so pleased with Samantha. She house/dog sat for us this past weekend. She communicated with us all weekend about Duke and Lady which we rate very highly. We have older labs and one has to have medication twice a day. They eat twice a day and go to bed around a certain time. She handled all of this really well. We will hire her in the future.
Megan was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to care for [pet’s name], and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. She was attentive, loving, and professional — checking in regularly and making sure everything was perfect. I could tell she truly cares about animals, and it shows in everything she does. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Zeeland Place
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Zeeland Place is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $61 per night. On Rover, 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 339 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Zeeland Place. 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 Zeeland Place 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 Zeeland Place 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 Zeeland Place 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 Zeeland Place. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
