About: WHO LET THE DOGS OUT??? Me! So he/she can join me on a nice cool walk. I’ve taking care of dogs my whole life. From vet visits to fostering dogs until they found their right home. I stopped fostering dogs A few years back, it started to become very hard for me to let a dog go after spending so much time with them. I’ve been a dog mom my WHOLE life. At this point, my schedule revolves around my dogs, a mothers job is never done! I do not have kids unless you want to include my dog. I look forward to making time to fit your dog into my life. I have patience with them. Not all dogs learn and move the same. Especially with a new face coming around. But with my knowledge and my loving energy, your dog will easily fall in love with me.
About: I've been caring for dogs of all breeds since I was 15 years old. Neighbors, and relatives have entrusted me with walking and feeding their pets. I'm a full-time student at Florida State University, but I can tell you that I'll have plenty of time to play with your dogs throughout the week and weekends. I will keep a clean and hygienic environment for them. Engage and not leave them alone for a long time. i will care for them in the best possible manner.
“Amy was fabulous! She arrived exactly on time so we could make it to our event with plenty of time. She was friendly and so sweet to Journey. We were so comfortable leaving our dog with her so we could enjoy our wedding in a strange city/state where we knew no one who could dog sit. Thank you Amy and Rover!”
“Katherine was phenomenal! I love my babies, and she definitely understood. Attention to detail in feeding, and daily pictures♥️. Having my dogs remain in their element was very important to me. My home was left just as I left it. Thank you again.”
About: I provide full-time, in-home boarding and daycare in a calm environment with a large fenced yard. Since 2014, I’ve cared for more than 700 dogs, including puppies, seniors, dogs requiring medication, and dogs with special needs. Your dog will stay in a safe, clean, and comfortable home with supervised access to the fenced yard, plenty of toys, fresh water, rest, and individual attention. My home and pet-care areas are kept clean and well maintained. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, personalities, and care needs. Please share any medical, behavioral, mobility, feeding, or medication concerns before booking so I can make sure I’m the right fit for your dog. Mini home tours are available Monday through Thursday so you can see where your dog will stay. Fridays through Sundays are reserved for caring for current guests, so tours are not available during that time. To keep arrivals calm and reduce doorway excitement, I meet families outside and personally guide each dog into the home. Communication is important to me. I’ll send regular updates, photos, and notes so you know how your dog is doing throughout the stay. Dogs often have more activity and stimulation here than they do at home, so they may be extra tired or thirsty after a busy day of play. That is typically normal after an active stay. Pet care is the focus of my daily routine. I’m home full time and offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible to better accommodate each family’s schedule. Every day is shaped around the dogs in my care. I adjust feeding, playtime, outdoor breaks, rest, and individual attention based on each dog’s age, energy level, personality, and routine. Some dogs prefer a quieter pace with more rest, while others enjoy frequent play and activity. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, engaged, and well cared for throughout the day. Safety, comfort, and cleanliness are central to how I care for every dog. My large fenced yard includes anti-dig protection, giving dogs a secure space to explore, play, and take outdoor breaks. Dogs are supervised closely, and I communicate promptly if I have any questions or concerns during their stay. I keep my home and pet-care areas clean, organized, and well maintained. Kennels, bedding, bowls, and frequently used surfaces are cleaned and sanitized between stays to help provide a healthy, comfortable environment. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience where each dog feels secure and well cared for. I adjust supervision, activity, rest, and handling based on the dog’s age, personality, energy level, and individual needs.

About: Hi, I’m Peyton! I’m a responsible and dependable pet sitter with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a college student-athlete, I’m organized, active, and committed to providing pets with the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight care, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently unemployed, so pet care is fully possible for me! I am very flexible with whatever you need me to do for you! I have a fenced yard, and if I am not letting dogs out into fence yard, I use the leashes to keep them very safe

About: I’ve been around animals and have taken care of them for as long as I can remember! I’ve worked with my mom, who is a veterinarian, for a long time to take care of pets! I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to learn the best ways to take care of them. When I come to take care of your pet I will dedicate my time to loving them. My whole life I have grown up with pets including both dogs and cats! I have always looked at pets as an important part of the family so I will always treat them like so! I am currently home full-time and am available for walks or drop-ins when needed to take care of your fur balls! I will always try to make time for them! When I come take care of your fur babies, I’d love to do whatever it is you already do to make them comfortable! I’d love to take your pups for walks at the park, or just play a game of fetch if that’s all they need!
About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life since my early teenage years, almost 20 years ago now. My oldest dog prior to their passing was 15 years old and was with me from when they were a few weeks old, so I have experience with dogs at all life stages including senior care for dogs. I have pet-sit for friends and family many times over the years and always ensure that all pets have the best care possible and are well taken care of and know they’re loved. I take care of all animals in this way and would be happy to help take care of your precious babies, also! I have a free schedule throughout the week for any day availability, including weekends! I am able to do drop-ins and/or overnight stays if needed. I make sure to follow the routine set by the pet owners as clearly as possible, ensuring all animals have access to food, water, bedding, bathroom areas (inside or out), and whatever else they may need (i.e. specific things like medication, etc.). I also show plenty of love and affection to all pets and do my best to help them feel safe and know that they are in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets before; however that has been exclusively for family and friends. These pets have ranged from massive dogs to little pups, and I have loved every second. Currently out of school for the summer, and I have plenty of free time to take care of pets this summer. Any time works fine for me. I spend as much time as I can with my pets, and make sure they’re healthy and comfortable at almost all times whether that involves taking them on walks or making sure they won’t ever go hungry. They are rarely left alone for more than a couple hours.
About: With a lifelong passion for animal care, I have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including birds, fish, reptiles, rabbits, and dogs. I am confident handling special care needs such as administering medications, as well as providing attentive support for puppies and senior pets. As a dedicated pet owner to my beloved Cockapoo, I understand the importance of trust and compassion when it comes to your furry family members. I would be delighted to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as an independent travel specialist, which allows me to create my own flexible schedule around the needs of the pets and families I work with. Because I typically work from home, I am able to spend most of the day with your pet, providing companionship, supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Pets in my home are cared for like family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and regular feeding schedules to help them feel comfortable and at ease while away from their owners. I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to make every pet feel happy, secure, and well cared for.
About: I have volunteered at an animal rescue around a year. I was responsible for fixing them food, water, cleaning their crate and playing with them. I also had a family dog growing up and currently have three cats. I work from home full-time and get multiple breaks throughout the day, so I am always available at home. I am a homebody and have the time to care for animals. I have a fenced in back yard with a grassy area. Pets sitting on the furniture and being around is no issue. I do have three cats, but I am able to keep them separate at all times.
“Angela was wonderful. She visited before the overnight to meet everyone, and they all reacted positively. I came home to a peaceful house with calm animals, everything was clean and neat, feeding areas were ready for the next meal. She contacted me when one of the gang had an accident, about my preferred method of dealing with it. She arrived promptly and started sending pictures and updates. We will be having her to house sit again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Arkwright
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Arkwright on Rover is $29.41 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 177 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arkwright. 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 Arkwright 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 Arkwright 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 Arkwright 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
