Karla has been watching my senior dog off and on for the last 2 years and she is hands down the best sitter I've every worked with and am so grateful for her professional care whenever I have to leave town. My old boy takes several supplements and medications and needs special care due to his age and Karla competently and patiently takes care of him in a way that is above and beyond the job. She's experienced, an excellent communicator and is incredibly genuine. I couldn't recommend her more and encourage any dog or cat owner to seek her out!

Wow! Marissa was awesome! Our puppy is shy and skittish, but she was able to gain his trust quickly. She followed instructions, went above and beyond and was very trustworthy. Marissa is also awesome with communication.

About: I have grown up surrounded by various animals and I love taking care of them. I want to make fur babies as happy as possible! I am currently working part time at a law firm while I go to law school and am looking for a way to hang with more furry friends! I have one small dog at home who is very friendly and playful. She would love to run around with your fur baby all day.

We couldn't have asked for a better person to spend the week with our fur babies than Yareli! 😊 She sent us regular updates of their playtime, walks, and lots of cuddles. We came home to a house that was even cleaner than when we left it, a vase of fresh flowers, and the sweetest thank you card from her. We are so happy to have found such a wonderful, dependable person and hope to have her back in the future! ❤️

We were so blessed to have Brianna care for our dog during a recent vacation. Our original sitter had to cancel and we were really in a bind! Bri came to the rescue and did a wonderful job with our dog whom we've only had with us for a few weeks. She was super communicative and helpful and we truly appreciated her help. She left our home in great shape and Emmy was healthy, happy, and relaxed upon our return! I would highly recommend Brianna to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

Melanie was awesome!!! We highly recommend her for your fur babies! She was very professional, kind, considerate and responsible. She took excellent care of our two large doodles and our home, as she stayed at our home 5days and 5nights. She arrived as agreed and fed them their raw diet, responsibly. She sat with them outside regularly and cuddled with them in the evening. We really appreciated her excellent communication and attention to detail. She sent us photos of our two pups with a quick text of how well they were doing, every morning and night. This gave us great comfort and peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation even more, knowing they were well cared for. When we got home our home looked just as we left it. She was very clean and neat and cared of our home as well!

About: About Me I have shared my life with animals since childhood, and caring for pets is second nature to me. I raised my pug Madison from a tiny puppy all the way through her senior years, and she was a beloved part of my family until she passed at 14 years old. That kind of long-term commitment taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to recognize what an animal needs even when they can't tell you. Today I have two wonderful dogs of my own: Keith, a spirited pug, and Othis, a friendly lab. Between them I stay well practiced in the daily rhythms of dog care, from energetic walks to quiet companionship. Services I Offer I provide flexible, reliable pet care tailored to your needs. This includes house-sitting your dogs while you're away, taking them on walks to keep them happy and exercised, and dropping by during the day to let them out, refresh water, and give them attention. Whether you need someone for a single afternoon or an extended stay, I'm happy to build a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and cared for in their own familiar environment. My Experience Dogs have been a constant throughout my life, so I understand their personalities, energy levels, and quirks. I'm also very comfortable with cats, having had several of my own over the years. I know how to respect a cat's independence while making sure they're fed, clean, and content. From playful puppies to easygoing seniors, I adapt my care to fit each animal's temperament and stage of life. Availability I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend meaningful time with your pets rather than rushing through a quick visit. I can accommodate daytime walks and let-outs, midday check-ins, and overnight house-sitting depending on your schedule. Your pets will get genuine attention and companionship, not just a hurried stop. I would love the chance to care for your furry family members and give you peace of mind while you're away. I work remote, so I’m home and can let dogs out, walk them or house sit. I am available to take your dog to the vet. At my house, I do have a fenced in yard. I also have crates. I do prefer to watch dogs at the clients house because a dog is more comfortable in its own environment.

We had an excellent experience with our house/pet sitter, Gordon. I was nervous having a stranger in our home and with our pets, but from the start, he was great at communicating with me. That continued while we were away with daily texts and photos. It put our minds at ease knowing they were being taken care of so well. We came home to happy pets and a spotless house. He even went out of his way to schedule things around our dog who requires special attention and medication. Would definitely book again.

Michelle was great with my Great Danes! She sent many pictures of them running around the yard, getting cozy, and just being their goofy selves. She managed meds, feeds, fun, and supported them through a stormy night. What I appreciated most is that Michelle is a great communicator! I would love to have her watch the boys again!

Denise was AMAZING! She was so patient with my shy senior Nikita. The two of them bonded much quicker than I had anticipated and it made me so happy to know that my pup was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with Denise again as she’s become a member of Nikita’s circle! Thank you big time Denise - you are truly incredible.

FAQs for House Sitting - Anderson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Anderson on Rover is $79.14 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 1,301 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 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 Anderson. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% 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.
