“Lauren did a great job with our crew. We have a Great Dane and three Frenchies. We were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about them. We returned to an extremely clean house, happy pups, and peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. She provided photo updates and was very responsive from the beginning. We booked on short notice and she was able to accommodate quickly. We would absolutely love to have Lauren watch our pups again in the future.”

“Tyler was amazing! She took care of our 7 pets flawlessly. Sent updates and pictures and helped us out in a tight spot. Would absolutely recommend t ANYONE and will use her again without concern or doubt.”
“Jenn and her wife were great with my cats, and very attentive to the instructions I left. They were very considerate sitters, and it was also nice to have someone who can help out on post.”
“We could not be more pleased with how wonderful Paula was with our German Shepherd! We highly recommend Paula to anyone who needs an a pet sitter! Not too many people I know can handle a big German Shepherd and she did an amazing job, taking such good care of him! Our boy Maui loved her from the moment he met her and that says a lot, because if Maui doesn't like you, he will let you know! Paula also keeps you updated daily with professional looking photos, she has an eye for photography as well! What a relief it was for us to be able to find Paula, as we are newer to the area and do not have family close by to help. I would give her a 100 stars!”

“Andrea was great with our doodle. This was her first house and pet sitting booking for us and all went smoothly. Watson loved her from the instant she stepped through the door. We will certainly be repeat customers!”
“Aaron was fantastic with our zoo! We received pictures and updates each day about our 3 dogs and 3 birds while on vacation. He ensured they had food and clean water each day and even tackled the insanity of our feathered escape artists and overly excited shepherd. House sitting he definitely had his hands full but took great care of them and left the house just as clean as we left it. Communication was fantastic and we would definitely use him again!”
“Ariana was AMAZING! Our sitter canceled on us with less than a months notice. We were very nervous but she was super kind and communicative! Our dogs lived her and we will definitely use her again!”
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all kinds of animals so if you’re looking for a diversified animal sitter I’m your guy. On the farm I gained experience working with and caring for dogs and cats from birth to elderly. I’m a personal trainer in Nashville Tn on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. If you’re located in town I’m available to drop in periodically on those days and am available around the clock on all other days. If you’re outside of Nashville it may be as long as 8 hours that I’m away on M,W,F but I’m available around the clock on all other days. As an in home pet sitter I try to replicate the same schedule, play time, attention and care that your pets are accustomed to in order to reduce their stress while you are away.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was nine. In the past three years I’ve recently become a cat mom and now have 12 cats on my own with my fiancé. We live on a farm and we’ve been using the 11 acres we have to offer homes to pets that need new environments or random cats we found and neutered in the local stray colony. Through this process I’ve learned a lot about veterinary animal care, from getting care for small cuts and abrasions to CPR to recovering from surgery and so much more. I have cared for cows and horses, though it has been a few years so I would need a refresher course. I love animals and I love caring for them and would love to care for yours as well. I’m currently working from home as a freelancer. My schedule and time are very flexible as I can work from pretty much anywhere with the Wi-Fi signal. I do occasionally have work calls throughout the day, but nothing that usually disrupts any feeding schedule. I have a lot of experience of caring for pets in other people’s homes/ as I’m house sitting at the same time. As I have a home filled with animals, it seems to an environment that might be overwhelming to some pets. I have a lot of experience with animals that need medical attention as I have taken care of many strays. I can handle pretty much any age level from kitten to senior cat, from puppy to senior dog, etc. When I housesit, I usually clean the entire place, including the bathroom and kitchen areas unless otherwise requested. Of course, cleaning any litter boxes needed as well as general tidying, such as vacuuming or sweeping.
“My partner and I are first-time dog owners, and Tavin was our first dog sitter booked through this app, so naturally we were a little nervous. However, Tavin was communicative, easygoing, and attentive to our pup’s needs right from the start. He stayed overnight with our dog, sent us pictures and updates, responded promptly, and left the house just as clean as he found it. We will definitely be booking Tavin again and highly recommend him to anyone considering his services!”
“I can not recommend Kori enough! She house-sat for our (very rambunctious) english bulldog puppy and was very attentive to both our puppy and our house! You can tell she is naturally wonderful with dogs, but she expands upon that with a level of concern and care for them that actually allowed me to my enjoy my trip and minimized my mom-guilt :) I plan to use Kori for all future trips and would recommend her to anyone needing a wonderful companion for their pet!”
“Brandon is reliable, trustworthy, responsible, dog magnate, and a genuinely nice guy. He stayed with our deaf BT/Frenchie mix for a week, took her on more walks than we ever do, gave her love and let her snuggle with him. He also looked after our house. I look forward to working with Brandon in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 262 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Anderson. 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 Anderson 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 Anderson 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 Anderson 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.
