“Jessica was great! She accepted our booking last minute and still made time to do a meet and greet prior to watching our dog. She was very communicative and prompt! Would definitely book her again!”
“Our dogs love her and the house was left perfect after she left. One of our dogs is old and needs care every 4 hours or less and some pills. He is also deaf and uses sign language to communicate. She was able to handle all of this no problem. Booking her again for our next trip!”
“Sabrina is the absolute best!!!! I feel so blessed that we found her. She’s such a kind person with the sweetest energy. The animals flock to her!! She’s the only person we’ll be using from now on.”
“Heidi was great. We had a few changes to our travel plans and she just went right with the flow. We were impressed when we met her with her thorough questions and enjoyed the updates she sent. When we got home our dogs were happy and didn’t seem stressed at all and Heidi left us a note with details of medication that had been given, etc.”
“Noa was great! I’m usually pretty skeptical about leaving my dog with anyone. I found Noa on Rover and it was the right fit. I was gone for over a week and had her house sit as my dog doesn’t like new surroundings. He was not only well taken care of, but I received updates and pictures. She was very responsive with any questions I had while I was away. I came home to a happy dog and a clean apartment. I would definitely book her again!!”
About: Hello, my name is Danielle. I used work as a veterinary technician and I am looking to drop in pet sit and walk pets on my off time. I personally have 3 dogs and 4 cats so I am very much used to taking care of pets on a daily basis. I am also experienced in pet first aid and dog/cat CPR experienced. I can also watch small caged animals in my home. I have experience with some exotics and small 'pocket' pets. Please let me know if you have any questions! Thank you! In the mornings I make sure all of my pets are taken care of then after my kids are off to school I am available to come check in on your fur babies! I always make sure doors are shut and fences are secure for outside time. I always make sure leashes fit snuggly to reduce the risk of a leash slip.
“Matt was very professional & attentive. Followed our tips & instructions precisely. He was pleasant & went out of his way to assure our 12 year old sheppard felt loved and comfortable. I will use Matt in the future!”
“Devon just spent 10 days at our home watching our 2 dogs (12y.o. Pit/chow and 8 y.o pitbull). I was nervous about finding someone to stay with our dogs as my older dog can be temperamental but the moment Devon came by for a meet and greet it was clear he is a dog whisperer. I received updates and pictures twice a day and never had to worry about how things were going at home. My older dog has been showing signs of dementia and Devon was able to sooth him through 4th of July and fireworks without any additional anxiety medication. Additionally, I was impressed with how respectful Devon was of our home and space. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs. We will definitely be booking again.”
About: I was born and raised on a family farm. From the time I was born I have been riding in tractors and taking care of all sorts of animals. Growing up we always had dogs and cats in our home. I have always loved rescuing strays and rehabilitating injured animals of all shapes and sizes. I now have three fur babies of my very own and they are my life! If you entrust your pet with me I will not take it lightly as it is a deep honor and privilege. I love spoiling animals and giving them all the love. If I ever won the lottery I would adopt all of the oldest animals at the shelter and take them to my pet sanctuary. Please consider booking me so that I can continue to stay at home with my human baby as much as possible! 🐾 I am very part time right now since I stay home with my little one. I pick up evening shifts here and there but I am fairly free in the evenings once my husband gets home from work. Let me know what you need and we can work out a routine! I typically work with children and for that reason I understand the importance of trust, flexibility, and kindness. I will always uphold your privacy and I promise to do my best in every situation. I like to call myself an “over communicator” so I will always share details on your pet and I’m pretty good at taking pictures of fur babies too!
About: I would be honored to take care of your pets! I have 10 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, and cleaning litter boxes. Additionally, I have experience with anxious dogs (as I have an anxious pup of my own). I have taken care of many friends’ pets, and I always love becoming BFFs with new pets! I will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them as my own! I’m currently working in Frederick, and am available for pet/house sitting and dog walking in the Frederick area! I work M-F 9 am-5 pm, and have full availability for evenings and weekends! I have a fenced in yard, plenty of toys, and a dog of my own! There are also plenty of friendly pups in the neighborhood!
“I trusted Aly as soon as I met her. She proved completely worthy of that trust. Her focus was entirely on the my dogs and their quirks and their needs. I was able to get through a very difficult weekend and never once worried about my dogs’ wellbeing or comfort. 10 out of 10 I would recommend Aly to take care of your beloved pets.”
About: Hello, I’m so excited to become a dog sitter & walker on rover! I have always been a huge dog fan. I have had a small yorkie ever sense I was young. My sister has a big dog who I also enjoy being around! I am currently college student training to become a nurse! I’m looking for a seasonal job for over the summer! I love being active so taking care of dogs would be perfect! I am correctly working a part time job as a hostess at a restaurant but I’d love to do rover on my days off!

About: While I’m newer to professional pet care, I have plenty of love and attention to give your furry family member! I’m happy to walk, play with, cuddle, and care for your dog as if they were my own. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll always treat them with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and send plenty of updates and pictures along the way. My goal is simple: you feel comfortable while you’re away, and your pup gets a new friend who is genuinely excited to see them. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to work with each pet’s usual routine whenever possible, whether they need an energetic walk or just some company and attention while their person is away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, respect your pet’s normal routine and boundaries, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide photos and updates during visits so you know how your pet is doing.
About: I've always been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember! I have experience with cats and dogs, puppy/kitten to seniors! I can walk,bathe, feed, brush, play, cuddle, etc. I have experience with varying sizes as well as special care such as medication. I am available most of the time! I am currently going to school full time online so I will be able to stay most of the day! 24/7 I will check all doors and fences to ensure the animal can't get out. I will also check leashes,collars, etc. to ensure walks will be safe. Ensure the environment is clean,safe, and nurturing!
“Cared for our fur babies like her own and gave me such a peace of mind with this being my first time using a pet sitter. Received regular updates on my babies as well. 10/10 will book again!”
About: Yo! I'm Alex and I'm 20 years old. I don't have to much experience with dogs but I'm a pretty chill dude. I spend most of my days at home making smooth music full-time and id love to watch some dogs because as a kid I never really had a dog but always wanted one. My pet care experience is pretty much down to watching my sisters cat which I did for a whole year. I only recently started watching a dog and it was such a great experience that it made me really want to watch more dogs during the time that i have. That experience really made me love dogs a lot. Thanks for reading my about me. Stay blessed and have a great day today. As a work-from-home audio engineer, my flexible schedule allows me to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Your furry friend will always have company! I provide a safe and fun environment for pets in my home, with a fenced yard for playtime, frequent walks for exercise, and plenty of space in my large basement. I also have a cozy room for your pet to relax and feel at home!
About: We used to board rescue german short haired pointer dogs when I was growing up. I have also grown up with different kinds of dogs throughout my life. I have my own dog who I walk at least 2 to 3 times a day. She is a very energetic and active dog that keeps me busy. In the past I have tried my best to care for other people's pets with the same care I would do for my own dog.
About: I have been taking care of/raising animals since I was about 13 years old. We always had dogs growing up, as well as livestock and small pets (hamsters, birds, etc). I would also help family and friends with pet sitting when they’d be away. My love for animals has followed into my adult life, and over the years I have gained a lot of knowledge about all types of animals - big or small! I currently own goats, a pig, cats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, and have a Great Dane. I am hoping to expand and help others with their pet needs, and continue to share my love for animals! I am currently pretty flexible as far as a schedule! I can help in the morning after 9am, afternoons, occasional evenings. M-Sun! I am available to do one time, or reoccurring. In a clients home I am of course respectful, and treat their pets as my own. They will be shown the love and attention my own pets would be shown. Appropriate walk times, and play times would be given. If going on a walk, your pet would be on a leash at all times and I will be sure to handle situations with caution. Food and water would be checked and refreshed if needed. I am ok with giving baths as well!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ziegler Estates
Ava did a great job watching my two dogs for about 5 days at my house. She didn’t hesitate to ask questions or clarify instructions and sent updates and pictures of them regularly. The dogs loved her! From our first meeting when she showed up like a professional with her checklist of information she needed me to fill out and immediately connecting with my dogs, I knew I picked the right sitter! She was a good sport too because my dogs’ sleep schedule was a little whacky and they got up quite early a few days. Would definitely book Ava again!
Taylor is amazing! We had some nervousness leaving ours pets for the first time and she eased all of our anxiety! She communicated frequently with updates and fun pictures, was thoughtful about the routine and asked questions where needed. Taylor is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ziegler Estates is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $94 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Ziegler 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 Ziegler 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.
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 Ziegler 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 Ziegler Estates. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
