About: I’ve been around animals since a little girl. They’ve always caught my eye, i’ve dealt with little to huge doggies and they all been great! Taking care of them has always been a passion of mine. I’m currently working part time at a dog day care which i love and lets me have plenty of free time to watch your babies whenever needed. I’m very aware of how to take care of pets. Their safety in these circumstances mean a lot to me and if needed reassurance that your dog is okay always give a call or text!

“Jaclyn is the best! She communicates very well and gives our kitties the love and attention they need while we are gone. We also have a special needs cat and she handles him perfectly. We would recommend Jaclyn to anybody and feel so lucky to be one of her clients!”
“Susan is amazing. She took amazing care of our dog while we were out of the country and allowed us to enjoy our travels without worrying about our beloved companion. Her communication was superb and her care and kindness are unmatched. We plan to use Susan for all of our future travel. I did not worry one bit and honestly that is priceless, photos and reports daily kept myself and my family at ease and even gave us a few laughs with our adorable pup showing off. Thank you Susan, your service to pet owners is a true gift. -❤️ The Haltom Family”

The rest of the days I am free and happy to be with your pets as long as you’d like :) I am very attentive, caring, and open to many different animals and needs. I love taking dogs on walks and getting them the exercise they need. I love playing with cats and giving everyone lots of love and attention. I can also bring in mail, water plants or anything else you might need while you are away.
About: *Special Situation * I live in a van with my dog Milo, if I watch your fur babies Milo will need to be able to stay in the house as well. I have been around dogs my entire life, I love to give dogs a fun and active environment with as much love and playtime necessary. Milo, who has brought me such joy in life and he loves to be around other dogs too! I have lots of free time Friday through Monday to care for your dogs and give them the attention they deserve. I love to be outside and it is very important to me that dogs get a lot of playtime and activity through out the day. I will ensure that your pup has the best experience in my care at all times. I would love to watch over your pup. Having a dog, I am always able to take care of pets. I make sure that all dogs get the attention that they need and work around my schedule to ensure that. I live in a van, and my dog and I are always on the move and playing outside. If I do watch your pups at your home, I ask that Milo is allowed to join the pack! He is extremely friendly.
“Excellent sitter, took great care of my babies and my home while we were away. I plan on using Jeff again, as my husband and I travel often. So happy to have found someone like him to care for our babies. He took care of my patio umbrella when a storm came up, cleaned the Great Danes’s chew mess up, and retrieved packages from the porch. Jeff is great, he treats your animals just like one of your children…. Just like we do. You can’t go wrong if you call on him! And Rover is an amazing service, so glad it’s there. It’s much better than leaving them in a tiny kennel while not home.”
About: Grew up on a dairy farm, have had family pets growing up including dogs (of all sizes) and cats. Began house and animal sitting at the age of 15 for family friends. My strict daily routine keeps me on track for animal care. Currently working full-time, filling the day with numerous outside activities and play time for family pets. My love for animals allows me to easily create a great bond with them! Enabling me to closely monitor their behavior for anything out of the ordinary.
About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have always been surrounded by and dog-sat family members' pets for as long as I can remember. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, and will treat and love your dog like my own. I understand the anxiety of leaving your fur baby behind when you have to go, and I know what it takes to find someone worthy of caring for one of the most precious parts of your life. My own dog has behavioral challenges, so I understand what it's like to care for dogs with different temperaments. Whether your pup is reactive toward other dogs, pulls on the leash, gets nervous around strangers, or just has their own quirks, I won't be fazed - I'll meet them where they are and work patiently at their pace! My schedule is very flexible right now since I just finished my PhD research and I’m currently figuring out my next steps. Morning, afternoon, and evening drop-ins are no problem at all, and weekends are just as open. I can also accommodate same-day and short-notice requests. I will be respectful of your home and leave it just the way I found it. And I'll keep you in the loop with photos and updates so you can relax knowing they're in good hands!

I am available for house sitting services as well as drop ins. My schedule is pretty flexible. I have no pets in my home, I am easily available to stay where your dog is comfortable, in their home environment. I can provide walking services as well.
About: I have 10+ years of experience caring for a variety of pets, so your pet will get 10/10 care! I grew up caring for my family’s very large Bernese Mountain dog, and slightly smaller German Shepard mix. I know how to handle large dogs and love spending time with them! I’ve been a pet sitter for smaller dogs in past and adore them just as much. I love pets and I can’t wait to meet yours 🐾💗 I am a student athlete, so during the day I have practice and classes, but I can spend time with your pet in between and can stay overnight. My weekends are completely free if your pet needs a little extra play time or cuddles! My dogs at home are a little mischievous, so I’m extra diligent about locking doors, checking windows and keeping food off of the counters 😁! Above all, I love pets so I’ll make sure to keep them safe!
“Alyssa was SO great with the kitties. She was very attentive, responsible, and reliable and she was excellent at communicating through the app. I saw on my Ring that my boys eagerly waited at the door when they heard her car pull in. We will definitely use Alyssa again if we need a sitter in the future & we will recommend her to our friends.😁”
“Alena is a fantastic sitter. She spent quality time with our cats, sending pictures and a comprehensive visit summary each day, giving me peace of mind. I had no worries about my fur babies while I was gone. I highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Zephyr Cove
Georgette's attention to detail was outstanding, the weather was a factor throughout her time taking care of our pets, but she made sure that if it was starting to rain, she came back to take our pup from the backyard and into the house. Her dedication and extra efforts were so very appreciated, will plan to use her services in the future for our next trip.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Zephyr Cove stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Zephyr Cove 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!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Zephyr Cove with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
