Erica was prompt, reliable and sweet to our two small pups. We received regular communication from her with photos. The moment we met her we felt confident that our puppies (who are like babies to us) would be well cared for and she exceeded our expectations. I recommend her for sure! Thank you, Erica!

It was my first time using Rover and Rachel made sure it was a good experience. She clarified any needs for the dogs, asked what was acceptable to not cross any boundaries already set, and made sure they had an enjoyable day. Couldn’t be happier to have them watched by her. Would recommend her if you need a sitter.

About: I grew up taking care of people’s home, children, plants and animals. I have a lot of experience in taking care of clients and making them comfortable I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet sitting! I’m available throughout the week and can easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and extended time with pets. My flexibility allows me to work around each pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive the care, attention, and companionship they need. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always do my best to follow their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any other specific needs. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I make sure to give plenty of attention, love, and companionship. I also prioritize communication and am happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away!

I was so pleased with Tania, would I book her again absolutely. I probably have to leave Kittycat no more than twice a year and so she is not use to having a person she doesn’t know live in her house, but Tania loved her and took care of her so well the pictures that Tania sent showed how Kittycat was completely comfortable and well looked after. Thank you again Tania.

About: Hi, I’m Skyler!😊 I bring 5 years of professional animal care experience as a Lead Kennel Technician. I have experience caring for pets of all ages — from playful puppies and kittens to elderly and special-needs animals. I’m also trained and certified to administer medication & perform CPR on cats and dogs whom may need the additional assistance!🤍 Ive grown up with both dogs and cats and currently have three babies of my own!🐈‍⬛🐶 I provide knowledgeable, compassionate, and dependable care so you can feel completely confident while you’re away! Pet care is my main focus, and I maintain a very open and flexible schedule to meet my clients’ needs! I’m available throughout the week, including weekends and overnights. I structure my days around the pets in my care to ensure consistent attention, proper supervision, and routines followed exactly as directed!🐾 I provide care exclusively in my client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I am comfortable with overnight stays and provide frequent photo updates every 1–2 hours (or as often as preferred). With 4 years of professional experience as a Lead Kennel Technician, I strictly follow all feeding instructions, routines, and medication schedules exactly as directed. I am trained to assess situations calmly in an emergency, and I will always contact pet parents immediately. If a situation is beyond my control, I will not hesitate to seek veterinary care right away. Safety is my top priority. I am extremely attentive with leash handling and strongly advocate for secure, fenced areas for any off-leash time. I triple-check doors and gates and remain aware that other animals’ behavior is unpredictable. While I may visit dog parks if requested, I approach them with caution and close supervision. I also follow professional sanitation protocols to maintain a clean, healthy environment for every pet in my care. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely safe, informed, and at ease!

I really appreciate all the updates she provides-videos, photos and messages so you know what is going on with your babies. She is extremely kind to my dogs and communicates very well. Highly recommend!

She was very sweet with him, kept him on his food schedule (which is very important to him) and walked him at his pace. She also took great care of our house. She picked up our mail & newspapers, watered some plants, and picked up packages; she was respectful to our home. I would highly recommend her as I will hire her again!

Charlayne is a literal animal whisperer. My cats have never approached sitters and usually stay hidden. My feral who doesn’t even approach my husband much was in love with Charlayne. She is so gentle and does a great job at giving animals space to decide how close they want to be. I tried to help her understand my feral with a lot of messages on “how to” do things. She was never offended and tried all my suggestions. They formed a close bond very quickly.

About: I have worked at Petsmart before. At Petsmart we are required to know what makes a dog comfortable while at a public place or somewhere other than home. I have watched over puppies 2 and 3 months old for my in laws a couple times now. My parents got a kitten that I helped take care of till I moved out about 10 months later. I own a chinchilla which is an exotic small animal. I’ve had her for a year. I’ve been fascinated by pets since I was a child and always do my research before taking care of an animal. I look forward to being of assistance. I fluctuate between part time and full time. I’m usually free tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursdays. I can schedule the time off if it’s 3 or 4 weeks in advance. I usually work mornings except for mondays, when I work evenings. I can always visit the pup or kitty during break and then spend the rest of the day with them after work. This will most likely be temporary until I can get a solid schedule here or at Home Depot. My apartment complex is very pet friendly. My building is only a few steps away from a dog park inside of the complex. The clubhouse has dog treats and I can provide as well based on age and diet. I will always ask any questions about what you would prefer for your fur baby. I have a chinchilla that stays in a cage as long as your pet is around. She is curious and will not hurt your pet even if they stick a paw in between the bars, which is hard to do anyways. My living room is a large space for any pet. I’m currently working part time, but I’m willing to do weekly stays with 2-3 weeks in advance notice. I also will require meet ups before every service in a public place. This is not going to be required for existing clients. I live in an apartment so I don’t currently own any pets, but everyone in my direct and extended family either has, or has had one that I’ve grown up with. I’m very familiar with animal routines and attributes. If something is bothering your pet, I will notice. I always keep in constant contact with whoever I petsit or help take care of for anything I may notice. Most of the time it’s things owners are already aware of, but I’ve always found it never hurts to ask and inform.

About: Hello future friend! I have house and pet sat professionally for clients on two well-known websites for 5 years. I’ve done the same via personal referrals for friends & family members for 30+ years. I am very experienced. I loooove all animals & will care for, snuggle, and dote on them like the precious beings they are. I am especially good with anxious and/or emotionally insecure pets. I have experience administering medication as well. I am very quiet, neat, and clean. I'm happily single at age 56, stable, healthy, and very responsible. My schedule is flexible for walks, errands, chores, playing, and outside time. Sending much care to you as you consider your travel and housesitting plans. Best, Melissa My schedule is fairly open for pet care, petsitting, and housesitting related duties. Just let me know what you need. I’m flexible and will work with you! If I come to you, I will follow your routines, schedules, and instructions to the letter. If possible, I prefer to meet and greet with you beforehand to experience you and your fur babies in person. That way, you can introduce me to your home and routine together. I’ve had great pet care and housesitting experiences where meeting beforehand wasn’t possible as well. I like animals to be where they want to be, including the furniture, beds, etc… depending on their personal preferences.

FAQs for House Sitting - Abner

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Abner on Rover is $52.73 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 536 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Abner. 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 Abner 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 Abner 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 Abner 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 Abner. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
