About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and what sets me apart is my flexibility and commitment—I’m willing to adjust personal plans to ensure pets are well cared for and I’m able to travel as needed. As a physical therapist, I bring strong safety awareness, a structured and reliable approach to routines, and clear, timely communication with frequent updates and quick responses. I work four 10-hour shifts, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break to let the pets out. I also have a three-day weekend available to spend extra time caring for them. I am flexible, dependable, and willing to take on any tasks required. I’m happy to follow instructions and assist wherever I’m needed to make sure everything is taken care of.
“Michelle is warm, comforting, and calm. She was so good with our very traumatized Beagle rescue that he was able to relax and be a dog like he is with us. That has never happened before Especially after the first meeting! My husband and I are so very grateful to her and so happy to have her as a member of our family!”
About: I used to work at Bark and Brew and occasionally dog sit! I have three of my own puppies at home so I have plenty of experience as well as also fostering dogs! I’m looking for something to do in my free time as well as making some furry friends 😊 I am currently working two part time jobs but I can help before or after either of the job when need be. I have lots of free time in the middle of the day between 12-4! I love interacting with pets as in playing with them or walking them! I make sure they get everything they need and more hoping to make their day enjoyable!
“Excellent dog sitter- our first time with our older (and slightly finicky dog Zeus). This sitter put us and our dog at ease- offering to come for a meet and great. Zeus even was eating well for her which has not happened with a first time pet sitter in the past. A great communicator. Will use again.”
“Eleanor is absolutely amazing with sitting. She stayed two nights and everything went beautifully. My animals absolutely LOVE her. She also made me feel so comfortable, with lots of photos and videos. I am looking forward to hiring her again. I HIGHLY recommend her!”
“We had Alex watch our pups during our wedding weekend, and they loved her. Each picture she sent of them they were clearly having a great time, doggy smiles all around. 10/10 would book again.”
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life — from growing up around horses and barn cats to caring for beloved family dogs. I have over 30 years of equine experience and have worked in a veterinary clinic as a vet assistant, which means I’m confident providing basic first aid, administering medications, and making sure your dog is safe, healthy, and happy. I have experience working as a vet tech and also worked as zookeeper at the NEW Zoo for a while. Today, I share my home with Luna, our fun-loving dog, and carry with me the experience of caring for our cherished golden doodle for 14 wonderful years. I live on a peaceful horse property with 5 acres of land (there is a safe fenced-in area for dogs away from the horses) where your dog will have plenty of space to run, sniff, and explore — or simply relax in the fresh country air. My goal is to make every dog feel like they’re part of the family, because to me, they truly are. I currently work from home so I am always available to love your pet and take care of their needs! I love taking care of dogs! Your dog will love my 5 acres of open land, plus a fenced yard and secure playpen for safe play. I also have three gentle, dog-friendly horses who keep the atmosphere calm and welcoming. I do have three cats, but they are barn cats and when they see a new dog, they are very, very good at hiding out. I live on a street that is tucked away from the busy road . Inside my house it is very pet friendly and I do have a nice kennel that dogs are able to go in if they need that.
About: I treat every dog like family, providing loving, dependable care. I’m patient with puppies, gentle with senior dogs, and always keep owners updated with photos and messages. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, allowing plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and giving each dog personalized attention every day! I will provide personalized care for each pup, following each pet’s routine with feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, medication if needed, and a safe, comfortable environment
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and have always been drawn to them. My Dad jokes that he would love to be one of my dogs because they are treated like royalty! There are always 2 to 3 dogs in my pack at all times along with 1 to 3 fosters. I have been fostering for Happily Ever After Animal Sanctuary for about 15 years now and have been walking dogs at their Sanctuary facility for almost 13. I love to be around any dog of any size, but always have a soft spot for the shy guys or trouble makers:) I feel it's my job to do what I can to restore the animals faith in humanity after it was let down by the person who was trusted to take care of them. If you have a dog or dogs who need someone to come take care of them while you are away, I would love to do so! Or if you have a long day at work and would like them to get a walk, I can do that too:) Looking forward to meeting you and your dog soon! Missy I will do my best to work your needs into my daily routine. In home care is also an option for any day of the week... I have 5 acres with a fenced in yard and 5 dogs currently living with me. There is a heated garage and greenhouse for separation if needed and I also have kennels in all various sizes.
About: I worked at Petco in Virginia for three Summers me and my wife have had animals since we've been together which is 20 years just looking to take care of other people's animals and get some exercise at the same time. We'll be doing it part time I will not be working at any other job this will be my job that I will be doing have to take it easy I've been working hard for the last 30 years I have a routine we take our dogs out at least four times a day to go potty we do walk them around and our big yard they get fed on a regular basis I do have cats outside which are dogs get along with and all of our animals are potty trained so we work with them on making sure they're potty trained they don't misbehave when people around so I'm pretty much good with animals.
About: I have one dog, and two cats. I have experience with senior care, as well as high energy breeds. At this time I am not offering boarding, but hopefully in the future. I'm available almost any time, any day. My dog gets walked 1-2 miles daily, sometimes twice per day. We have plenty of space and love to offer. I have one dog and two cats. Willing to watch crated or uncrated animals. Will exercise daily. Pets are allowed on the furniture and sleep on the bed, but will keep to specific trainings.
“Jane is a fantastic dog sitter! She took great care of our two aussies. They absolutely loved her and they were very relaxed when we got home. Our house was also well taken care of and clean when we got home. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve helped care for pets for friends, family, and neighbors for years, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them attention while their owners are away. I’m patient, reliable, and love getting to know every pet’s personality. I’m currently working overnight so I’m usually free during the day, around noon would be perfect but I’m pretty flexible as far as letting your dog out or feeding your cat if needed! As a pet owner living in an apartment with my own dog, I understand how important it is for animals to get exercise, attention, and time outside instead of feeling cooped up indoors. I make it a priority to keep pets active, comfortable, and emotionally cared for through walks, playtime, and quality attention. I always want every animal in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in whatever environment they’re in
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around animals and have experience helping care for a wide variety of pets. This has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand the unique needs and personalities of different animals. I grew up with Labrador Retrievers and have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care and attention. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and my goal is to give owners peace of mind while providing their pets with the care, love, and attention they deserve. As a college student who works part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I carefully manage my classes and work hours so I can give pets the time, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Because I genuinely enjoy being around animals, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding, playtime, or evening visits, I am committed to making sure pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, responsive, and dedicated to following each pet's routine to help them feel safe and at ease. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow each pet owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication needs, and any special care requirements. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and routine so I can provide consistent care and minimize stress while their family is away. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as they left it. My goal is to provide dependable, trustworthy care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was a child. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends and family over the past 5 years-in many capacities: day visits, overnight, single and multiple dogs, different age ranges, breeds and dog walking. I don’t have a lot of cat sitting experience but have friends/family who have cats. I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I’m available more flexible on those days. Weekends and weeknights, I’m a bit more flexible to care for pets overnight or provide drop-ins throughout the day. I have no pets in my house, so your pet(s), will get my full attention. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but am able to use lines if needed, I also have space to kennel your pet if needed. My house is a split level, so I have stairs to get to either floor of the house. My parents do have dogs (in a different household), so if you pets don’t get along with other dogs please let me know.
“Lindsi is amazing! She knows what she’s doing with difficult animals. We have one dog and three cats. They were all happy and healthy when we got home. We couldn’t have asked for more. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Brendan took great care of my 4 boys (3 large dogs and 1 cat) while my husband and I were away for 2 weeks. We were his first in-home job with Rover. Brendan was very attentive to each of my boys needs and I could tell they really liked him. I would recommend Brendan to care for your pet when you are away.”
About: Cats/Dogs welcome! 1st shitzu/poodle mix baby for 8 years, baby passed to new realms 🪽 Then, new addition to the family has been our rescue coming in & spicing life up. Going on 4 years❣️ Available on the weekDAYS & weekends. Feel free to let me know what works for you too! Communication is one of the biggest tools for our success. : ) I have a fenced back yard and plenty of water to provide! At yours, talking about the routines/schedules for the furry friend is how I roll to then provide the best possible experience in the caring.
About: I'm high energy and giving. I grew up with big dogs my entire life and this is the first time I have been without one in awhile. My golden retriever passed away last summer and in due time I will be getting another dog. In the meantime it brings me here so I can help others when they need it. I have experience training puppies and my father and I helped out a breeder of goldens for awhile. I enjoy finding new toys or things for dogs to do to enhance their cognitive abilities and regular exercise is important to me. I look forward to getting to know you and your dog! I'm currently working on being a bookkeeper, so I have more free time with my schedule. As of now I'm a full time oral surgery assistant, working 7am-4pm. I had a routine when I had my golden which included waking up, eat our breakfast and then go for a nice walk, followed with our daily trip to the dog park. I moved to a duplex, so boarding dogs is a bit harder for me now. However, I am still open to having them stay with me if they do okay with walks. I make sure the house is clean and safe, especially having a puppy. I keep a plethora of toys available, daily walks, grooming appointments and food. I do everything to make sure any dog is living their best life, because they're the angels that walk this earth.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 174 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Abrams. 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 Abrams 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 Abrams 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 Abrams 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 Abrams. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
