About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
About: I genuinely love caring for my friends’ and family’s pets. Animals have always brought me a lot of joy, and I take their comfort, routine, and well being seriously. I love spending time with them, making sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while my loved ones are away. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give pets the attention, care, and play they deserve. I genuinely love being around animals, and I enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Because my schedule is more open right now, I’m able to be very attentive, present, and engaged with your pets rather than rushing through their care. I’m very gentle, patient, and loving with pets, and I always want them to feel safe and comfortable around me. I know every animal has their own personality, needs, and boundaries, so I take my time earning their trust and making sure they feel cared for. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or high energy, I approach them with warmth, attentiveness, and genuine love.
About: As a Rover Dog Caregiver, I am committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. With a background in veterinary technology and a passion for animals, I ensure that your furry companions receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each dog, creating a safe and comfortable environment for them to thrive in. With me, you can rest assured that your dogs are in loving and capable hands. I often volunteer at dog sanctuaries with disabled and senior dogs. And I have one puppy and one adult (both female) of my very own!! I also have a female cat I adopted 5 years ago!! I’ve cared for various small animals and reptiles also. I am an upcoming freshman in a Veterinary Technology program. I’m currently working part-time and there is never “not enough time” to care for pets!! Everyday I take time out of my day from my dogs to enjoy my company. There is no excuse for neglect! Although I do not have a fenced home I have a LOT of yard space and my neighborhood is perfect for dog walks. I also live 5 minutes away from a trusted dog park. Just tell me what I can do to best care for YOUR animal since not all dogs/cats are the same.
“Hanna was fantastic! She took great care of our senior boy and made sure he was comfy and happy. She checked in with us and sent lots of pictures. If she’s available, we will be booking her every time we go out of town!”
About: I've had a familiarity with animals since a child. I enjoy speaking( even though they dont speak back) and giving attention to pets to build a loving, trusting, bond I Am not very busy in general so am able to take care of companions at almost any time of the day or night as needed. I do not offer services pertaining to bringing the pet to my home, however, on our first meet, I will learn and cater to the best interest you have for your pet's care in your absence
“He was very communicative and kept us updated with photos and text messages. Our pet loved him and was very happy obviously while we were away. it was a privilege to have come across such a great person. will surely work with him in the future, no doubt about it.thanks thousand times for such an outstanding service.”
“Anita was AMAZING!!! Not only did she take excellent care of our stubborn furry baby, she kept watch over our home and we returned to a clean and happy house!! Peace of mind is what you’ll get by hiring her. We cannot recommend her enough. ???”
“I am blown away by Kellie and how well she cared for my guy while I was gone. She sent multiple daily updates and loved him like he was her own which eased so much worry about leaving him alone. She may be his new favorite person and I’m so happy for that!”
“Hannah was wonderful! She stayed at our house with our pups while we visited family. The house was left in excellent condition and our dogs were very happy to spend time with her! Thanks again, Hannah!!”
“Patrick was amazing. Super communicative and kind. Sent pictures and videos of the pups. Gentle energy that made the pup calm right off the bat. I look forward to having him take care of my baby again.”
About: Hey there! We are Kelbie & Seth! We have been pet sitting for over 9 years. While I am finishing my masters program I will be home for full time pet sitting availability! We have 4 highly trained pets of our own who love to make friends. As a former kennel attendant I was trained in safe techniques to get your furbaby to eat if they aren't interested, proper leashing, basic first aid, and how to administer all forms of medication for both cats & dogs. Our 2 friendly border collies love to tagalong to house sittings when allowed, this also allows both Seth & I to come stay. Having such smart dogs, we are also skilled in some dog & trick training. We have taught our boys all that they know & Dexter has received his Novice Trick Title. We also have 2 cats who are very dog friendly so just let us know if your dog gets along with cats. I will be working from home on our businesses as I finish up my master's so when I'm not crafting, you'll catch us cuddled up on the couch or outside playing! Unfortunately our rental got sold in Murfreesboro so we are now living back with family in White House & will primarily be availbile for house sitting, drop ins, and walking for Sumner & Robertson County! We try our best to stick to your fur babies normal routine! Rather they need medicine, an extra walk, have high energy, or are a senior, you can ensure they will be in loving care with us! We are also insured professionals.

FAQs for House Sitting - Anchor Mill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 567 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Anchor Mill. 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 Anchor 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 Anchor 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 Anchor 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
