“Neil watched over our 2 pups on super last minute notice. So appreciative of that and he provided excellent care. He sent us updated pictures and videos and even took our pups on a nearby hike.. Neil is so kind and warm hearted. Got to meet him in advance and he welcomed us back home before he ended his sit. Our home was in great shape upon our arrival. Will be keeping in touch with Neil for future sits.”
“Laina was an excellent caretaker for Cooper. Cooper has lots of anxiety and needs lots of patience which Laina was able to provide. She had great communication the whole time and made me feel comfortable Cooper was cared for. As difficult as Cooper can be to handle she was able to do it. I would happily recommend Laina to anyone who wants their dog cared for properly for their specific needs. She even got Cooper to feel comfortable enough to lick her hand which is not like him with new people. Great communication, great care, ten out of ten experience, by far the best I could’ve hired. Thank you so much Laina!”
“Luna can be a bit funny with new people, being pretty anxious and not wanting to be petted. Hannah was patient with Luna, adjusting as needed to try to keep Luna as comfortable and less stressed as possible. Eventually, Luna calmed down and was sleeping in the bed with Hannah and allowing pets, which means she was finally comfortable with Hannah. The daily updates with pictures gave me peace of mind while I was away from my pup, too! I will for sure use Hannah again for future dogsitting needs!”
“Jamie is an excellent pet and house sitter. She is caring and down to earth, friendly, happy and “gets it.” Left my house sparkling and my animals smiling. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“David is a delight. This was the first time I ever left my cat. She is a touch customer - shy, finicky and on a special diet and medications, so definitely not an easy pet. I loved getting the photos and updates from David each day and especially the one where she is in his lap! He is an amazing carer and I highly recommend him!”
“I could not have asked for a more caring and loving individual to watch my two darling Shih Tzus when I was away. On the meet and greet, Megan took meticulous notes and it was clear how much she loves animals. While I was away, she sent many notes and photos. Her questions showed me how well-cared for my babies were and I could rest easy knowing that Megan was there. I feel so lucky to have found her! Not only did she take excellent care of Moxie and Tonks, but she left my apartment better than she found it! Amazing!”
“Sarah did an amazing job house sitting and caring for our 4 dogs. She kept constant communication and sent daily pics which eased our minds and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation. She went above and beyond what was asked of her and even added to our pups training! We will be booking again when we decide to travel next.”
“Mandolyn was great with our pup! She engaged him mentally and physically and was a trooper keeping him occupied during several days of rain. She listened, followed instructions and takes her job seriously. Will definitely use her again.”
“James is a joy. He took great care of the dogs and our home. We came home to a clean and tidy home. He took care of everything we had asked him to do and would highly recommend him again”
“Natasha was amazing with our senior pup! She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and updates during our trip. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter!”
“Casey was a great sitter! She was very communicative, and most importantly, our dogs seemed super relaxed when we came home. It was clear she had spent a lot of time with them and made them feel cared for and loved. We will definitely use her again!”

“Heather was very, very good. Took great care of all three of our pets, communicated very clearly on how they were doing, and provided lots of wonderful pictures. Great to have her tending our house and pets.”
“We had a great experience with JoHannah! She was able to spend a lot of time with my 5 pets while we were away. She sent many photos and was quick to respond when we reached out. The house was clean and the pets were calm when we returned from our trip. Would book with her again. Thanks JoHannah!”

About: Hello! I’m a nurse pursuing a graduate degree and pet and house sitting on the side. I’ve had cats & dogs my whole life, and have cared for little reptile pets as well! I have experience walking, running and playing with dogs of all sizes and petsitting durations from an overnight to one month at a time with both dogs and cats. No dogs (or cats!) are too big or too small. I enjoy helping pets get outside and active, or doting on them at home. I’m comfortable with puppies and elderly dogs and cats, and can run with your more energetic pups to get their yayas out! My schedule is very flexible and I take pet care seriously - I want you to be worry-free while you’re on vacation or busy at work. I have three fully remote weekdays per week and one half remote day, so plenty of quality time to spend with your pup. I’m available for scheduled weekly walks, one-off check-in’s and walks, as well as for overnight stays and longer pet sitting periods. I’m currently a full-time student with lots of lunch break time and three fully remote days a week to tend to pups & cats! I’m happy to help with short or long at home care while you’re traveling, or to set up a weekly walking (or running) schedule with your dogs. Reach out and we can discuss what works best! I offer pet sitting in your pets’ home spaces, and am happy to adapt to specific needs while at your home. I’m an early-to-bed and early-to-rise person, so I’ll be able to spend plenty of time with your pets and help them get active before I head anywhere for a few hours! I can provide feeding and medication administration, and have experience with pills, creams, dressing changes and insulin injections for pets.
“Morisa was awesome! She stayed with our 3 cats, one of whom has special needs, and is a little bit different, and she took excellent care of everyone. She was kind, conscientious, and communicative, and sent me updates and photos every day! I would definitely call her again! Thank you, Morisa!”
“Laura is wonderful. I feel confident leaving my pup in her care. She keeps me up to date with pictures and any happenings while I’m gone. The best compliment I can give is that when I leave Zoey with her I am completely at ease that she is loved and well cared for while I’m away.”
“Ava has been very caring and patient with our anxious pup, Eola. She took pictures during house sitting that allowed my partner and I to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Ava has great communication and left the house clean and tidy. She even stripped the mattress before leaving. Thank you!”

Heather was a life saver and was able to jump in and take care of our pups after a last minute cancellation from our other sitter. She gave us daily updates, sent over pics and left the house just how she found. We would definitely use her again in the future.
Sarah and Jack did an awesome job taking care of our furry pets. Not only were they happy and healthy when we returned, but also the house was well taken care of . Sales communication with us throughout all time away was spot on. She provided photos and regular updates and she had questions she would reach out highly recommend booking Sara!
Ava has been very caring and patient with our anxious pup, Eola. She took pictures during house sitting that allowed my partner and I to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Ava has great communication and left the house clean and tidy. She even stripped the mattress before leaving. Thank you!
This was a last minute booking and we are thankful we were able to make reservations. Axios was great with our pups. He communicated often and ensured we were updated on anything new going on with them. He left the house spotless after a week of being there. We will be booking with him again! Thanks!
Alex is the only person we trust with our babies! He treats our fur babies like family. We tell them their Uncle Alex is coming for a visit! He takes the best pictures and reassures you your babies are taken care throughout his visit, from food, to play time to pets and love! Alex can cater to all personalities and special needs. Our girl is high anxiety and one of our kitties is very skeptical of strangers.. he made friends with them in no time! Patiently and kindly. We can’t recommend Alex’s services enough!
Erica dog and house sat for 2 weeks. Ghillie (a 10yo bird dog) was relaxed and happy when we returned home. She walked him regularly and kept to his usual routine. He got along great with her pup Rigatoni, which is saying something as he is used to being solo dog in the house and can be wary of other large dogs. House was as clean and tidy when we returned as when we left. She brought in all mail and packages.

FAQs for House Sitting - Biltmore Forest
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Biltmore Forest on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 690 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Biltmore Forest. 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 Biltmore Forest 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 Biltmore Forest 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 Biltmore Forest 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 Biltmore Forest. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
