“Leanne was the best sitter we could have asked for. Our travels plans got messed up and the pups had some medical issues pop up and she kept us so informed and the dogs taken care of. She absolutely went above and beyond for them, and made sure they got plenty of exercise as well!”
“Olivia did a great job caring for our dog over the weekend while we went out of town. She came by for a meet and greet the weekend before, and stayed in touch before and during our trip. Olivia arrived on time and kept us updated with texts and pictures while we were away. We will definitely trust our fur baby to her care again in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Taylor was a great communicator! He sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Our dogs were very well taken care of and we highly recommend him to anyone needing care for their furbabies!”
About: I’m a college student at UTK who loves animals and wants to spend more time around them! I’ve pet sit mostly for my family, friends, or coworkers and love meeting new pets! I’m a full time college student so I’ll be primarily open on weekends! Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I’m available after 4pm, Tuesday 12:30, and Thursday 6pm! I can follow a list of directions easily and feel comfortable communicating any issues or questions I have! All furbabies will be extra loved on and treated with the utmost respect and care in their homes! :)
About: I love hanging out with dogs and would be happy to give them love while you are away. I am detail-oriented and will follow your directions to a tee. I also love snapping cute pics of your pet to keep you updated! I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members and neighbors pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During undergrad, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I recently moved to Knoxville to start my Masters program at the University of Tennessee in August. I have classes at night Monday-Thursday and will be working 4 hours a day Monday-Friday, so I have flexibility to care for your pet(s)! My weekly schedule is as follows (with some variations as required.) Monday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Tuesday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Wednesday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Thursday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Friday: work 9am-1pm Saturday/Sunday: no set time commitments Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed basic trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, some basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors. I am not a trainer! However, this knowledge has helped me to better understand different dogs unique needs.
“Gabriella was fantastic with our dogs — great communication throughout and she left the house exactly as she found it. Highly recommend her if you need someone reliable and attentive!”
About: I have had years of experience working with all kinds of cats, dogs, and guniea pigs, including regular and one-time customers. I have also lived with animals my whole life and regularly walked my large german shepherd growing up, so I’m extremely comfortable working with larger dogs and breeds deemed “aggressive.” In addition, I have cared for countless other animals, including goats, chickens, ducks, quail, and rabbits and I am more than happy to assist with more exotic or unique animals! I am a graduate from the University of Tennessee who works full-time selling plants at local markets and festivals! Because of my varying work times, I value flexibility and communication when it comes to scheduling. I’m usually available in mornings or evenings, with limited weekend availability. Just let me know what you need and we can see if it’ll be a good fit!! I am well-trained in understanding an animal’s behavior and responding properly to it, whether thats general anxiety or a requesting needs to be fulfilled. I have taken multiple animal science classes, including one dedicated to small animals such as dogs and cats. I also have over five years of experience in the plant industry so I am more than capable of caring for any houseplants or gardens while you are gone!!
About: Hi, I’m Julie and I am a Fear Free certified caregiver! I love being outside, so I'll be happy to take your best friend wherever they want to go on walks! I'm pretty flexible, so if your dog has any special needs, or if there's anywhere in particular you'd like your dog to visit, just let me know. Each confirmed booking comes with free photos of your fur baby while they are on their adventure!! I have three dogs of my own: Diesel, Callie and Benny.

“Nicole was wonderful! She took great care of Charlie and even took him a couple of new places to go for new walks. She took great care of the apartment and even washed the sheets and took care of the dishes before I arrived home. I will definitely be having Nicole take care of Charlie again!”
About: I’ve worked in dog daycare and boarding for six years as well as taking care of my pets. I also have some experience taking care of horses and sheep. I’m generally available weekdays from 11 AM–2 PM, with evening flexibility from 4–6 PM as needed. I’m also available on weekends. I have extensive experience caring for animals of all kinds, beginning in childhood, and I’m committed to providing your pet with attentive, dependable, and compassionate care.
About: Hello my name is Fern and I’m the critter sitter! My schedule is pretty flexible I’m in Salem, Va Fridays through sundays every week. I’ve been owing/caring for my own animals and others’ for 11 years. Dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats, exotics, fish and horses specifically. I’m quite experienced administering oral, topical and insulin type medications. I raised and trained my own service dog (in pictures - the brown muttley girl<3) so I have a lot of animal psychology, animal training and one year of veterinary experience and education. I will never give unwarranted advice if it is not asked for; that’s professional respect. But if you ask me I might have some tips or could help figure out w/e :). My world outside my M-Thursday inventory job pretty much revolves around caring for my partner’s doggy and having adventures with him so I figured I’ve missed working w animals in that capacity a lot so why not get back into it when I’ll just be bored otherwise :) Since Mason (Boxer smooshy face brindle in pics) is reactive, my residence is not an option currently for anything. I’m happy to travel 9 miles outside of east Salem for anybody. I follow verbal or written instructions and medication/walk/playtime schedules to the T. I send daily pictures multiple times a day for parent reassurance because that’s important to me.
“We were so happy with our first Rover experience. Emma was awesome! Emma arranged a meet & greet before our trip to discuss daily routines for our dog. We received daily pictures and a recap of how the day went. Emma quickly responded to any text sent. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our dog was in great care! We will definitely use Emma for all of our future dog watching needs!!”
“Emery did an amazing job looking after my 2 dogs and my house when I had to take a last-minute work trip. They each have very different needs/temperaments but Emery did a wonderful job attending to them both. She even left them custom-made REPORT CARDS that are now pinned to my fridge. 10/10, highly recommend, will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (dog and epileptic kitten), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! I am available most weekends. I also work from home often, which provides me more flexibility. However, days I am in the office, I am available mornings, lunch time, and evenings. I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I have an epileptic kitten, so am no stranger to anything pet related.
“Taryn is an extremely reliable sitter. Any request or accommodation our kitties needed, Taryn was there! Taryn stayed in our apartment for a week and our kitties were so happy to have somebody there the whole time we were gone. Will book again!”
“Stephanie done a terrific job with all 4 of my babies. They all have a few quirks but she just jumped in and had all 4 attached to her hip. So happy I was able to find such a caring person to watch them while I was away. Highly recommend !”
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I bring calm confidence and genuine love to every stay. I also have hands-on training experience with several breeds — basic obedience, leash manners, and good house behavior, from spirited puppies to strong, high-energy dogs. I adapt to each dog's needs: daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, medications, and senior care with slower paces and special diets. Your dog will feel safe, understood, and truly at home with me. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I love long walks — your dog will get plenty of them — and I practice yoga daily, which keeps me calm, patient, and present. I'm here for morning outings, midday breaks, and evening wind-downs, with consistent attention, timely meals, and lots of companionship in between. In my home, your dog becomes part of the family. I work from home, so there's always company, regular walks, playtime, and a cozy spot to rest. I follow your pet's routine closely — feeding, medications, and house rules — so they feel right at home. In your home, I offer drop-in visits and dog walking: fresh food and water, potty breaks, long walks, playtime, and lots of affection, plus tidy-up and photo updates so you always know how they're doing.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arrowhead
Lily was absolutely amazing! She stayed at my house with my pup Frankie, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared so much about Frankie. I would 100% recommend Lily to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and have already talked to her about dog sitting again!
Angela was beyond fantastic. I could tell my boys loved her so much from the pictures and her check ins. I got daily pics and videos, and she spent so much time with them. I am a huge worrier and I had zero worries with Angela. She is truly so caring and we all felt it, appreciate her so so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Arrowhead is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $90 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 October 2026, there are 671 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arrowhead. 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 Arrowhead 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 Arrowhead 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Arrowhead 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.
