About: I am retired and able to take excellent care of your loved ones. I have been sharing love for animals of my own & others for over 50 years. I worked in the medical field for over 20 years cleaning up bodily fluids and making others feel safe and cared for. I have a portable wet cleaning machine for little accidents that does a great job. In the past I have been bonded and insured as well as a fiduciary. You can trust me to nurture your babies as I would my own. 4 legged co-workers are my favorite. I am retired so I am very flexible. Caring for animals is not a job; it is fun and very rewarding! My schedule revolves around you and your pets needs and wants. Every animal prefers their own environment, even if you are gone. I am happy to come into their home and take care of their needs while respecting your space. I will bring a portable wet cleaning machine for any accidents that does a great job. I am happy to sweep up hair for you as well using your vac.

About: I grew up on a small farm with a bunch of different animals, and I'm always up for a challenge. I've had a soft spot for dogs, and I've learned to care for them with a patient, gentle touch. I've worked with rescues, seniors, and puppies and, I'm happy to learn each dog's routines, ease their anxiety, help them eat, or keep up their training. I'm also comfortable administering medications and bathing animals. I know how hard it is to find the right sitter. I struggled with it myself back when I had my rescue dogs. I want to be the person who shows up, respects their boundaries and routines, and gives the dog the best chance to be happy and comfortable while in my care! I work from home, with a flexible schedule, so I'm pretty open when it comes to walks, daycare, boarding, or house sitting. I'm happy to board at my home, I just ask that I've met your dog beforehand and that they're potty trained. I don't currently have any pets in my home, which makes for a good fit for dogs who need to be the only animal or just do better on their own. I do have a small fenced area in the backyard where they can be off leash as well. I'm very detail-oriented, and am good at figuring out what each dog needs to feel secure in a new environment. I'll always do my best to follow the guidelines you've already set for your animal, and I'll keep you updated along the way so you know how they're doing.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, we knew our pets were in great hands. They were loved, well-cared-for, and clearly spoiled with attention while we were away. We got updates, peace of mind, and came home to happy, relaxed pets — which says everything! Reliable, kind, and truly wonderful with animals. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to treat their pets like family. Thank you for taking such great care of our furry crew!”

About: I have been caring for pets of all ages, for 15 years. I have loved living with dogs and cats in the past. I currently do not have a pet so I’m excited to give yours all my attention! I work full time, from 8-5. I am free in the afternoons and weekends to either stop in or stay with them if needed. I will be diligent in following directions to try to keep them on their regular schedule as much as possible. I want to keep you and them happy and stress free!

“Leilani is amazing! She is professional but also warm and kind. We needed a sitter last minute and she came to our rescue, I don’t know what we would have done without her! She was very easy to communicate with- she sent us updates and videos while we were away. She also kept detailed reports of what she did each day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and hope to book with her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter with experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes. Having owned and cared for several dogs in the past, I understand the importance of providing love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to helping keep your furry friend happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I do have an another job I do as well but I make my own schedule with it so I have a very flexible schedule! I have a spacious apartment that your pet can roam freely around and it is dog proof as I have my own dog that your pet can play with!

About: I grew up taking care of and pet sitting a half dozen dogs between my own and cousins’ houses. I take pride in treating your pets like family and ensuring a good time is had by all. My schedule is open allowing me to take care of your dogs in your home, mine, or engage in a daily walk schedule, plan etc. I’m happy to oblige to the care of your pets in your home, but generally wouldn’t be boarding, so to say, animals in my own home. I have a vehicle outfitted with a safety net, as well as the experience to know that dogs can surprise you and it’s better safe than sorry. Leashes are constantly held and my attention is not often distracted from your pet while they’re in my care!

About: I love taking care of any kind of dogs, I believe they have the most genuine hearts! I’ve always been a dog person and was person my family/friends went to if they needed a pet sitter. I think that dogs can sense good people and their intentions, which is why I think they are so friendly with me. I go to school from 8:00-3:25 Monday’s, Tuesday’s, and Thursdays; and 11:20-3:25 on Wednesday’s and Friday’s. I do have an after school job from 4:00-8:00 Monday-Thursday, but they are flexible and can work around my schedule for walks or potty breaks! My weekends are always available considering I do not work weekends, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! Once I get a run down and the rules for the dogs/house, I can easily put them in crates if needed when leaving for school/work or walk them on a leash around the neighborhood. I’ve always had multiple dogs in my house growing up my entire life, so getting down their schedules and how they like to play should be very easy for me!

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, so I’m very comfortable taking care of them. I’ve helped friends and family with their pets, including feeding, walking, and just giving them attention.

I’ll also keep you updated so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have plenty of hands-on pet sitting experience. I’ve cared for my brother’s two medium-sized dogs as well as my aunt’s and uncle’s dogs, including overnight stays. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also very active and go on daily walks—even in the Arizona summer—so your dog will get lots of exercise, fresh air, and love while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I work remotely Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, making it easy to accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and lots of companionship. I finish work in the early afternoon, so my evenings are open for additional walks, exercise, and quality time with your pet. I do attend a fitness class for about an hour most days, but otherwise I’m home and love spending time outdoors, making it easy to keep active dogs happy and engaged. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a remote project manager, organization, communication, and reliability are part of my everyday job, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m stopping by for a walk or staying overnight, I’ll provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

I am currently a kennel supervisor, doggy daycare attendant, and a petcare specialist at a pet boarding facility in fort wayne. I truly love my job and all our clients that i deal with everyday. I couldn't be happier than I am right now working with animals. I am also a wildlife rehabilitator I have always dreamt of doing what I'm doing right now. Taking care of animals isn't what I do it's who I am. I work with and around animals everyday either here at home with my 5 dogs, 3 cats, 3 coons, and 2 squirrels or at Work. If at your home I will care for them the only way I know how to like they were my own. I will strive to make them the happiest furbabies while your away. I can't wait to be able to spoil your furbaby till you return home.

Christie was a dependable part of our care team for our two young rambunctious boys 1 & 2 years old. She was impressive from the start and didn’t get intimidated when our one year old beagle Dacshund mix protested in someone coming into the house. We rarely get to go anywhere due to needing sitters. We really appreciated the help and believe she is very trustworthy.

Natalie did a great job with our 3 dogs. She stayed with the dogs for 13 nights and also took care of the house while we were gone. Provided us with occasional updates, which is all we asked, we figure no news is good news but it was enough to know that everything was going good. She was also to become friends with our little ruler of the house. We will definitely be contacting Natalie again when we need her services.

FAQs for House Sitting - Ansley Acres

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Ansley Acres is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 225 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ansley Acres. 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 Ansley Acres 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 Ansley Acres 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 Ansley Acres 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ansley Acres. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
