“Randi and family took such good care of our pups (even when they were acting so needy!) while we were gone. Bad weather delayed us a several hours but Randi worked with us to make sure we were covered. Thanks Randi!”
“Kacey did a great job taking care of our 9 yr old pug for 10 days at our house! Our dog is high maintenance and am comfortable that he was well cared for while we were gone! I would most certainly higher Kacey back!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Many of my neighbors would often ask me to take care of their pets while they're away, and I still watch all of them to this day! It gave me quite a lot of experience with different types of animals among all ages too. All of their amazing pets have inspired me to join Rover to meet many more, and hopefully, I can one day get a dog of my own! I'm currently on summer break for college with no part-time job, so my schedule is completely free and flexible for any sort of pet or home needs. I take utmost care of pets as they are just as important as people! As a dog owner myself, I love on them and go above and beyond when taking care of them. Aside from just feeding or walking, I love playing and spending time with other animals as I believe they all need proper attention and not just their basic needs met while their owners are away!
“Riley took care of our boys while we were away for a week. She sent a daily picture which helped ease our minds while being away. Our boys were happy when we returned home to them.”
“Alex was great! She saved the day on her first day watching our dogs and house sitting. We had an out of town wedding and I forgot a small bag. She located it and arranged for our friend to pick it up and deliver it the next day. She sent pictures of our 3 dogs every day. We have 2 senior dogs and a silly, quirky 9 year old dog too. She seemed very comfortable with them and they liked her too. We never worried about the dogs or house while we were gone knowing that they were in good care. We would definitely request Alex again in the future if she’s available. 😊🦮”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all temperaments and types for my entire life. Pet-care is something I take seriously and seriously enjoy! We don’t deserve our animals, so they deserve the best! I’m working part-time from 4am-12pm so my daily schedule is pretty open! I’m comfortable house-sitting if needed or just checking in and caring for your pets, whatever they need! I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats and i’m very open to your requirements or instructions! I try my hardest to make sure they are comfortable, cared-for, and not stressed by my presence.
“Lindy was amazing! They gave us great updates every day on how Laika was doing, and what they were up to everyday. And lots of adorable pictures in which it was clear Laika was having a great time with them. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello my name is Corinne (kuhrin)! I’m new to the Rover community, but I have been pet sitting for as long as I can remember! I have two of my own dogs that I love deeply. I am comfortable around all types of pets. When I take care of your baby I will walk them, play with them, and keep them super safe. I’m currently home from college until the middle of August. I have a ton of free time that I want to dedicate to your fur babies. I’m am super flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I do not have a summer job when I’m home for the summers, so I have a plenty of time to tend to your animals. When you book me, your pet’s care is my number one priority! I am sadly unable to keep your animals at my home. However, I promise their safety and routine will not change with me as their caregiver. I’m able to follow any routine you throw at me. I want your animals to feel comfortable and cared for.
“Shula provided excellent pet care to my two dogs. She kept me advised and submitted photos. She did a great job with details and instructions. Would highly recommend her!”
“Michael exceeded my expectations in taking care of my two dogs. Prior to my trip, he came to visit my pups in order to get to know them, observe their behavior, talk about my daily routine, and any special needs. This interaction surely made me feel so much more comfortable in the fact that I could go away and not have to worry about my dogs while being away. I certainly looked forward to his many daily pics and information that he provided to me. In future trips, I will only request Michael because I never had to worry or be concerned about anything. He is definitely a KEEPER and highly recommend him to my family and friends.”
“Mindy was amazing especially with my grumpy senior dog. I have never seen Bucky take to a new person so quickly. She sent photos of my dogs on their walks and checked in with me each day. I can not recommend her enough.”
“Jazmine took such great care of our dog and cat! I really appreciated her detailed notes and pictures about how they were doing. She also left our house super clean - such a nice bonus after coming home from travel!”
About: I've grown up with pets and was practically raised with my parent's first child, our dog Rascal. I adopt senior and special needs dogs and love giving them a safe haven in their later years. I love to walk my own dog, Wilbur and would treat your pet like my own. I'm currently available on weekends and work from home on Friday so I have the flexiblity to provide daytime potty breaks if needed. I have reliable transportation and am eager to provide care for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard, and a dog and cat who would welcome meeting new friends. I also have room to create your pet if needed.
“Caitlynn is the best! My dog can be very stubborn with strangers but he warmed up to her immediately. She took great care of him and of the house while I was away, can’t recommend her enough and I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: I’m the family pet sitter because not only do I follow their routine but I make sure my sweeties are loved and entertained. I’m a nursing assistant part time so I have loads of hospitality experience! I’m a nursing assistant part time I’m usually working weekends which makes me more available during the week to stop by or even sit and entertain your sweeties! I don’t have a fenced backyard and my pup is a little feisty so i’d prefer to come to them but that just allows your pup to stay in the comfort of their home and again I have experience with doing drop ins for plenty of my family & friends!
“After meeting Helena, I was very comfortable leaving Chewbacca in her care. I didn’t worry at all while I was gone, knowing he was in good hands. While he is cute and small, he has a big personality and isn’t always the easiest dog. She was communicative and sent daily updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again for help with Chewbacca.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Appersons Store
Carleigh did a fantastic job house/pet sitting and taking care of our four dogs! We had a short notice trip and she was quick to come over for a meet/greet and take the job. She kept us updated daily and provided quality in-home care for our array of hounds (very small to very large). She also managed their medicines without any issues. Carleigh is a top tier sitter and she will be our first choice for any future pet sitting needs. Thanks again, Carleigh!

FAQs for House Sitting - Appersons Store
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,396 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Appersons Store. 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 Appersons Store 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 Appersons Store 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 Appersons Store 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.

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.
