About: As a college student and lifelong animal lover, I’m dependable, energetic, and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may need a calmer approach, medications, or additional support. I also make sure owners stay updated with pictures and messages so they always know their pets are happy and cared for. Creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment for every animal is always my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have open availability and a flexible schedule. I’m available for dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting at the owner’s home throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need is something I genuinely love doing. Whether it’s early morning walks or daytime check ins I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs and keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special care needs. I always make sure pets have plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while also keeping their environment clean, safe, and comfortable.
“Lindsey was great and I will be happy to have her back to care for my two dogs. She communicated with me regularly and sent pictures. I came home to calm and happy dogs that were very well cared for.”
About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all and they would get spoiled rotten.I know it's difficult to leave your babies. Hopefully I can make it better with photos, videos, and as much communication as you need to feel better. I strive to treat your pet just like they are one of my own. I'm recently back from deployment and looking to generate some income while doing something I love. Bring your pet to be loved and cared for like it was you. Plenty of time for play, pup cups, and rides in the car. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs that love company. They can also have free range of the house. They will be well cared for and be spoiled like the babies they are.
About: I’ve worked with all kinds of animals from playful puppies and shy rescues to senior pets who need extra care and patience. I started out volunteering at animal shelters, then gained hands-on experience as a vet assistant and kennel tech, where I helped with feeding, meds, and basic care for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also helped on my uncle’s farm, caring for everything from livestock to barn cats. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and treat every animal like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in college and part of a sorority, but I still have plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. My class schedule is flexible, and I plan ahead to make sure every pet gets the attention they need. I’m available most mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I always make time for walks, playtime, and check-ins. Pet care is something I love, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I make sure their space is clean, secure, and calm. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, and preferred walking routes. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel relaxed and cared for. I also send regular updates and photos to keep you in the loop and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve been pet/house sitting for the last couple of years. The most animals I’ve worked with at one time is 4. I’m great with a schedule if your pet needs it. I love all pets and I can’t wait to get to know yours! I’m available most of the time I’m not working right now so the only time I won’t be free are for personal matters. I am looking for new work so this may change. I have worked with both larger and smaller dogs. If they are still working in training I can continue to work with them on what they know. I have helped train in the past but I haven’t done any primary training myself.
“Rachel was amazing! She’s super sweet and took such great care of our dogs and our home. My dogs felt extremely comfortable with her, which means a lot to us. She went above and beyond, she even cleaned up the room she stayed in, washed the sheets, and made the bed before leaving, which she definitely didn’t have to do. That really shows how much she cares and goes the extra mile to do things right. We absolutely love her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Growing up, I cared for a variety of pets including Rottweilers, a purebred Husky, teacup Chihuahuas, rabbits, turtles, and guinea pigs. Since I was homeschooled while most of my siblings were at school, I became the primary caregiver for many of our pets, handling feeding, exercise, cleaning, and daily care. I also helped train our white Husky using patience and consistency, which taught me the importance of understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very naturally because I’m already used to structured responsibilities and being attentive to animal needs. I also work part-time, so I’m familiar with balancing a job, staying organized, and still making sure I give animals consistent, focused care. I plan my schedule intentionally so pet visits, walks, and check-ins don’t feel rushed or like an afterthought. When I’m with pets, they have my full attention. I make sure feeding, playtime, litter care, and comfort routines are done properly and on time. Even with a part-time work schedule, I prioritize clear communication and reliability, so pet parents always know their pets are safe, cared for, and getting regular updates. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their environment as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special instructions like medications or specific habits. I also make sure their space stays clean, safe, and comfortable while respecting the home as if it were my own. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level—whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need space. I let them warm up at their own pace and make sure they feel secure while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected. If caring for pets in my home, I would maintain a calm, clean, and supervised environment where pets are given attention, structure, and comfort throughout the day.
About: I have owned dogs for as long as i can remember and have done pet sitting for anything from dogs and cats to pigs and horses. I have worked in animal rescues and in doggy day cares, i have plenty of experience walking dogs, playing with and exercising the animals, and administering medications. I also have plenty of experience with dogs over 100lbs and with dogs that are reactive. I am currently working full time as a caregiver, but I will make sure I have plenty of time to be with your pets and make sure they get plenty of cuddle and play time. I will be able to sit outside with your dogs while they're in a fenced in yard, or if walks are needed for potty breaks i can make sure collars or harnesses are well fit and avoid letting people and other animals approach your pup on a walk. I will avoid opening windows fully, or opening windows at all if there are no screens, and keep all doors locked.

“Janelle was an absolute blessing to our family! She took exceptional care of our three rambunctious mini dachshunds, giving us complete peace of mind so we could fully relax and enjoy our 30th anniversary trip to Mexico. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with thoughtful communication and plenty of photos of our fur babies, which meant so much to us. When we returned home, we were amazed to find the house not only spotless but actually cleaner than when we left. She had even organized my disaster of a pantry—something I had been putting off for far too long! Her attention to detail and willingness to help in every way are truly remarkable. And as if that weren't enough, she welcomed us home with a delicious pasta dish and a loaf of homemade bread. That level of thoughtfulness and generosity is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. Janelle went far beyond anything we could have expected. She served our family with such kindness, care, and grace, and was truly the hands and feet of Jesus during a time when we needed it most. We are incredibly grateful for her and cannot recommend her highly enough. ❤️”
About: First off, we work with you! Pricing is just a base, definitely contact us to discuss what you are needing and we can figure out a price that works for us both! We are a mature, dedicated couple turning our lifelong passion for animals into a full- time retirement journey. My (Jennifer) background includes years of working with a wildlife rescue and operating professional mobile petting zoos. Kelly has helped me with petting zoos since late 2023. We are both comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and species of animals. We currently volunteer at our local animal shelter, walking and socializing dogs of all temperaments. We are also studying and learning basic obedience training and practicing with the dogs at shelter as well. And Kelly has recently finished dog grooming school and is working as a groomer. With both of us focused on your pet, someone is almost always available for potty breaks, playtime, and companionship! We follow your house rules and medical instructions to the letter. We treat your pets like our own "grand-animals" - with extra spoiling and total safety. 🥰 We are flexible, but I do expect our business to grow and for our schedule to start filling up. We will always do what we are able with any available time that we have. Unfortunately, we are unable to bring cats or dogs to our house. In your home, we would request a detailed outline of what you would need done and how you'd like us to do it. We respect people and their property, so we would only go into the common areas of your home, and any areas you've requested service in.
About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by both cats and dogs and am very comfortable taking care of both. Availability dependant on class schedule. I am currently going to college full-time, and will do my best to fit your pet's needs into my class schedule. Please contact for availability. I am ready to put to use all of my experience with preparedness and emergency prevention as well as any specific instructions given to me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Abernathys Mill on Rover is $111 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Abernathys Mill 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 Abernathys Mill 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 Abernathys Mill 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Abernathys Mill. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
