We are so grateful that Marilyn took care of our two dogs while we were away for two weeks. She sent to us pictures every day, updated us on their behaviors and even facilitated new medication for one of our dogs. I can’t recommend her more highly. She’s trustworthy and a loving caregiver for our pets. We will be using her again.

Brooklyn was excellent with our pups and bird. She was attentive to their needs and provided daily updates and pictures. She accommodated our early return for an emergency. Would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you

Debra stayed overnight with our diabetic, blind, senior dog for a couple of nights while we were away. She did a great job! We were at ease the entire time knowing that our girl Daisy was in good hands!

Shannon did an outstanding job, housesitting and taking care of Tate. She was impressive with her quick response, then suggestted a pre-visit to our house and to meet with Tate. She was right on time for the pre visit, also on the first day with Tate, along when she left. The house was spotless when we got home, she took out the trash, I think she did some laundry as well. We will defenitley use Shannon for our future trips out of town. Thank you.

Rob took very good care of our boy Toby, sent us daily updates with pictures and videos which lowered our anxiety and made our trip more enjoyable. He followed all our instructions to a "T" to keep Toby on track with our daily routine with feeding times, walks and playtime. We would recommend Rob to anyone looking for a live-in dog-sitter to care for their pet.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who truly treats every pet like family. I have three of my own—Odin, Taco, and Blue—who keep life fun with their playful, friendly personalities, so I’m very used to all kinds of energy levels and pet quirks! I’ve been pet sitting through Rover for 3 years but have hands-on experience of over 10 years caring for animals of all ages, from playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC - including other types of pets as well! I’m comfortable giving medications, handling multiple drop-ins per day, and keeping up with your pet’s favorite routines (and favorite toys, of course!). I offer drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on consistent communication so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Expect plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands. My style is warm, patient, and playful—I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe and happy. I do often have my child with me, so I do best with pets that are comfortable around kids. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! Pet care fits into my every day life because I have dogs and a cat of my own. It’s before and after work and all day when necessary. My pets are able to freely roam throughout my house while I am home and away. However you keep your dog while away, I have no problem following suit!

About: Dogs only want to give and receive love. They are, perhaps, Gods greatest creation. I've worked at a Veterinarian office/Doggy Day Care nearly 5 years, caring for all ages and sizes. I volunteer at the Sheriffs Animal Control Shelter in Supply. I believe dogs enrich the lives of the people around them. I've always been able to bond with dogs. A mutual trust has always come easy. They're all beautiful, and people could learn a lot from them. They make me laugh every day. Dogs will always be safe and happy with me watching over them. I wiil provide great companionship and a soft, warm touch while you're away. I guarantee that you will feel completely secure and confident with my abilities to maintain a safe, fun experience for your dog. Having someone you trust to care for your dog is invaluable. I will be that person. We love to be at home. Being on a walk or hanging outside is what we enjoy. I work at a doggy daycare and can fit pet care at home easily. Daily care of our dog is walking, feeding, brushing hair and teeth, love and cuddles, and of course playing games. We love to take our pebbles with us everywhere. We will give the same care to every dog we meet.

Megan did a great job watching our dog Rogan this weekend. She sent me updates and pictures. She played with him and walked him. She applied his meds for his skin outbreak as I asked. She really made me comfortable and really cared about Rogan. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again! 5 stars for sure!

Stacey was amazing with my boxer, Piper! She is so sweet, very informative, and extremely reliable. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind on my long trip, and she even continued checking on Piper after the visit. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her pets, and I would absolutely book with her again!

About: I’ve grown up with cats my whole life and currently have a 15lb dachshund and 3 cats in the house. All are very friendly. Any animal is welcome in my home. I work in a hospital three days a week. So I have four days completely free to take care of your pets. My bestfriend lives with me as well and is always around to help. There’s always someone home. I’ve served 5 years active duty navy and currently in the reserves so I do have common sense and can read and follow directions with precision. I have a car if needed for any reason and love being outdoors as much as possible so we can always go on nice long walks. I have a huge fenced in yard so we’ll spend plenty of time in the sun.

About: I've been caring for dogs for many years, both through pet ownership and helping family and friends with their pets. Over the years I've owned a Golden Retriever and currently have a high-energy Border Collie, giving me plenty of experience with active dogs that need regular exercise, play, and attention. I've also cared for multiple Golden Retrievers, a Mini Australian Shepherd, and a Lab mix. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from raising puppies to caring for senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule due to being off from my full-time job, which allows me to accommodate a variety of walking and drop-in visit times. I'm happy to work with your dog's routine and can often provide weekday and daytime availability. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner and caregiver, I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and building trust with every dog. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I always tailor my approach to each dog's personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, fetch, or a slower-paced outing, they'll receive plenty of care, supervision, and affection while they're with me.

About: I have life long experience with caring for different types of animals. My most experience comes from dogs (all sizes), cats, guinea pigs, and rats etc. I have experience pet sitting in particular for about 3 years now for family, friends, and others. I have personally cared for puppies/kittens, adults, and seniors. From bottle feeding all the way to the last moments. I currently work a full time job as a loan specialist between the hours 6AM-2:30PM during the week. I have lots of evening time and the weekends to take care of my own pets (feeding, walking, playing, going on trips) and would love to add others to my schedule for those that need or want some extra support. My care varies depending on the pet, their routine, behaviors, and owners preferences. I follow the guidelines and particular care of each animal to the owners interest and knowledge of their pet. Whether that be my friends dog who has to be crated with his one specific toy and his own radio turned to the gospel station to another owner’s instructions that their cats will only eat if you snap your fingers and say “supper time!”

About: I have had a pet for as long as I can remember! From dog, cat, Guinea pig, hamster, bunny you name it! I love animals and I would love to help their parents/owners make their life better by walking them, keeping them company, or just checking up on them while their parents are away. I hate the idea of them being left at home along for too long. I have experience dog sitting for my cousins at their house for multiple days in a row! I have been dog sitting for them for 3 years now:) I am a Graphic designer with a remote role that allows me to choose my hours! I love walking and dogs so I thought why not combine the two while helping others take care of their pups while they away at work:) I would treat them like they were my own dogs:) animals are sweet and they deserve to be treated like our best friends. if they ever got dirty under my care I’d be sure to clean them before they went home!

About: I offer a highly personalized, attentive style of care that focuses on each pet’s unique needs and routines. I have experience with puppy care, senior pets, and animals who require extra patience, structure, or gentle support. I’m committed to reliable communication, consistent updates, and creating a calm, comfortable environment for every pet I look after. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, understood, and cared for just as they are at home. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12 years old and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends :) I am a recent college graduate from Appalachian State University and will be starting my master’s degree program at UNCW in the fall. I reside in the Brunswick/North Myrtle Beach area and will be living at home during this time so my availability is super flexible! I am more than willing to willing to work around my schedule to accommodate for your furry friend to have a companion! 🐾 I take time to learn each pet’s likes, dislikes, and unique routines so I can mirror their normal day as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I maintain their familiar environment, minimizing stress by keeping their feeding areas, rest spots, and daily patterns unchanged. I also provide updates, photos, and messages so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away!

About: I’ve always taken care of our pets whether it was my dog, cat, or others. I have been in-house sitting two dogs for family friends for some time now and would like to expand. I have always had taken care of my pets and currently have a dog, two cats, and many other animals. I help ensure that all animals are taken care of and thriving. I also try my best to take my dog on rides at least once a month to get him out of the house. I do online classes in the evening after work so I’m able to provide care for them as they need it. I made sure that all animals are well fed and have a comfortable, clean environment. My close family friends spoil their dogs and I definitely try my best to make sure I continue their lavish lifestyle by giving them treats, playing with them, and even having them sleep with me. I am more than willing to adapt to each companions quirks and lifestyle.

FAQs for House Sitting - Ash

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 374 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ash. 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 Ash 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 Ash 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 Ash 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 Ash. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% 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.
