âAmanda was phenomenal! My 4 fur babies were very well taken care of! Amanda texted pictures and updates, which I greatly appreciated! I will definitely use Amanda again! đ¤Šâ

âSharon was great! She was friendly and our basset, who is usually hesitant when meeting new people, warmed up quickly. We felt comfortable knowing our dog was in her care in our home for a week. Sharon communicated consistently, sent photos daily, and left our home clean. We would definitely book her again in the future.â

âWanda and Steve are FABULOUS! I have 5 dogs and they all love them. Great communication. Take great care of my home too. Watered plants and I have a ton. So nice to come home to happy dogs, a clean house and plants alive and well in 90+degree temperatures. I couldn't be more pleased.â

About: Iâm a lifelong pet owner with years of experience caring for animals and homes. I know pets are family, and I take my role as their temporary favorite human pretty seriously! I have experience with special needs pets and am comfortable giving medications, managing special feeding routines, and respecting very strong opinions about where to nap. If your pet needs care thatâs new to me, Iâm happy to learn and follow your instructions closely. My goal is to help you relax while youâre away, knowing your pets are getting thoughtful care, plenty of affection, and regular reminders that theyâre the cutest creatures on the planet. I am currently wide open and looking to help out whenever it is needed. Until further notice I can be available any day, any time. I have three cats, and my senior kitties each have their own needs. One of my girls has asthma, so giving her an inhaler is part of our routine. Iâve also owned dogs and other animals, so my love definitely goes beyond cats! My cats have very different personalities, and theyâre a daily reminder that every pet needs their own kind of care and attention. Some want snuggles, some want playtime, and some would appreciate it if you respected their very important personal space. I love meeting new pets and taking the time to earn their trust. When caring for your pets, Iâll follow their usual routines and your instructions for meals, medications, and daily care. Iâll pay attention to what makes them comfortable and let them warm up at their own pace. Whether they want a cuddle buddy or just some quiet company, Iâm happy to be their person while youâre away.
About: Hey there! My name's Graham and I couldn't be more excited for the opportunity to care for your pets! I've grown up with pets my whole life! From many dogs, a cat, a bird, to even a bearded dragon, I've loved helping my family care for our pets! Now, I'm ready to help you continue to take care of yours! I'm currently a Physician Assistant student here in Roanoke and pet sitting is the perfect way to spend some of my free time doing something I love while helping support myself through school! I'm open to any and all commissions and would love to hear from you! I'm currently a Physician Assistant student, so my class schedule varies throughout the week. Because of that, my availability is flexible depending on the day, and I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I should have most weekends free and am available for pet sitting and drop-ins during those times, as well as select weekdays between classes. I'd love to get to know you and come do a friendly pre-client visit to meet you and your pet and hear about clear instructions for their care! Iâm open to helping in any way and can accommodate!
âCaitlin did an excellent job. She stayed at my house and cared for my 2 cats and my needy dog for a whole week. I know she spent a lot of time with them because they were barely excited I was back. She also took excellent care of my home and plants. Highly recommend!â

About: I have been dog sitting since my freshman year of high school to raise money for a school trip to Costa Rica that I attended in 2023. I am currently available anytime of the week. I am willing to stay overnight if needed. Or even stopping by to walk/let out the pets. I would rather not do it in my home just because I do not have a fenced in yard and I have three other dogs in my home.

About: With years of experience breeding Australian Cattle Dogs and Jack Russell Terriers, I recognize the vital role obedience and communication play. Additionally, I possess considerable expertise in caring for horses, rabbits, reptiles, and birds. I empathize with the challenge of leaving your pet behind when you desire to have fun. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me, and I'll be there promptly. Go ahead and pursue that adventure you've been seeking, knowing your pet's well-being is assured with me! With a strong commitment to my role as a full-time mother and nearly 2 years of experience as an Animal Care Attendant for Roanoke County and animal behavior, I will be availablein the evenings and on weekends. If you are interested in scheduling an appointment, please contact me at your convenience. I prioritize the safety and happiness of your animals, guaranteeing they will receive the same high standard of care as my own. My residence includes a play pen, a yard, and multiple dog beds, providing ample space for relaxation. Furthermore, they are welcome to use the couch if they so desire.
âI canât recommend Valerie enough! She watched my dog, for 3 days and did an amazing job. Hope can be a little particular with her routine and has some hip issues, but Valerie was so caring and attentive â she followed all my instructions perfectly and made sure Hope was comfortable, happy, and well-loved the whole time. Valerie kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Hope felt safe and cared for, and I really appreciate how responsible and thoughtful Valerie was with every detail, from playtime to feeding to making sure Hope didnât overdo it on the stairs. I wouldnât hesitate to book Valerie again â sheâs trustworthy, kind, and truly treats your pet like her own. Thank you so much, Valerie, for taking such wonderful care of Hope!â

About: I have three fur babies, golden retriever x2, and a blue heeler mix. Having animals is such pure joy. The dogs run the home, I just live here! Dog hair and slobbery kisses ⌠I wouldnât want it any different. My fur babies are happy and very generous to other animals. We have fun here. So bring your dog over, let them jump on the couch, and play with my pups! I work part time, but have a very flexible schedule. I have two boys at home that would give your pups all the love they need. I have a small fenced in yard for your pups. We enjoy talking walks, and playing fetch. My fur babies are the sweetest things and will get along with your pups!

About: Iâve always been a passionate animal lover. I share my home with both a dog and a cat, and while my pup has made it clear heâs happiest as an only dog, pet sitting gives me the opportunity to spend time with even more wonderful animals. As a conservationist and vegetarian, caring for animals is something thatâs deeply important to me. Iâve helped care for friendsâ pets and homes for years, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and comfortable while youâre away. I enjoy keeping pets in their familiar routines and surroundings, giving them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and snuggles. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possibleâfor both you and your pets. My schedule allows me to provide reliable care before and after work, as well as evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me additional flexibility during those days. Tuesday through Thursday, I work in the office from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. If youâre located near the downtown Roanoke area, I may be able to stop by during my lunch break when needed. My goal is to maintain your petâs routine as closely as possible and ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while youâre away. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household routines. As someone who shares my home with both a dog and a cat, I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs. I have experience caring for friendsâ pets and homes and treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. Iâll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.
About: Iâve always been a huge animal lover, and having grown up around both cats and dogs, I know just how much they mean to their families!

Whether your pet loves playing outside, going for walks, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, Iâll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone new, which is why Iâll treat your pet with the same patience, affection, and attention Iâd want for my own. Iâm also happy to send regular pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is having a wonderful time. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel so loved and comfortable that staying with me feels just like being home! Iâm currently studying online, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your furry family members! Iâm available on both weekdays and weekends, and because I spend much of my time at home, your pet will have lots of company, attention, and love throughout the day. Whether itâs playtime in the backyard, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, or just relaxing together on the couch, I can easily make your petâs routine part of my day. I genuinely enjoy having animals around, so caring for your pet never feels like work to me! Your petâs safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy some fresh air under my supervision. Inside my home, I want every pet to feel relaxed, welcomed, and loved.

âAshlyn came in so clutch helping me out last minute with taking care of my puppy, Stella. She communicated very well, was so positive even though i know my puppy is teething and kind of a pain! And she showed up and left when she said she would. Very much appreciate her consciousness and kindness when caring for my baby!! I would trust her in my home again anytimeâ

About: Iâve had my own pets and have been pet sitting since for about 10 years now on and off. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, and provide medicine to their pets. I have also fostered over 25 cats. I have a full time job during the week but am available at night, the weekends, or quick mid day visits if needed. I am very flexible. While I do not watch pets in my own home, I have stayed at otherâs homes numerous times to provide all thing for their pet and home.
âAs always, Janet took great care of our pups and made sure they were at ease while we were away. Our dogs are anxious but there was no evidence of it when we returned because they were happy and comfortable with her.â

About: 10+ years in kennel and veterinary medicine. Can take on walks & play to get the mid day zoomies out! Can administer medications as well. I am available all day on Mondays. This gives more time for long walks, feeding, medicating if needed and getting all of the zoomies out! I can pick up pets and take them to parks they are familiar with. We can take longs walks around the neighborhood. Whatever works best for the pet!
âJames was wonderful. When I returned home all was perfect. He cared for my plants..fountains...fish..outdoor cats and of course my 4 inside dogs. I don't even think they missed me. He won them as well as me over and Im hard to please. Highly recommend!â

Whitney was absolutely wonderful with Bailey! â¤ď¸đž She took great care of her and treated her like her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were away. Whitney was caring, dependable, and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. We couldnât have asked for a better dog sitter and would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby! đśâ¤ď¸

Caitlin did an excellent job. She stayed at my house and cared for my 2 cats and my needy dog for a whole week. I know she spent a lot of time with them because they were barely excited I was back. She also took excellent care of my home and plants. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Bonsack
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 435 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bonsack. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Bonsack walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bonsack 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Bonsack 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
