“Savanna responded promptly to my LAST MINUTE REQUEST for 9 hours of help with 2, maybe 3 dogs. She sent photos and reports through the afternoon and assured me she would still be there, even though I was going to be 30 minutes late getting home. My dogs, fostered for a Border Collie rescue, wanted to follow her out the door. I hope to continue asking for Savanna's help for future dog sitting needs.”
“Madison was great! This was the first time I had someone stay at my house and look after my dogs. She was great with my 4 dogs, even my scardy cat dogs! She was on time and quick to reply when I had questions. I would definitely recommend her and definitely use her again.”
About: I truly understand that pets are family. When you trust me with your dog, you're not just hiring a sitter, you're choosing someone who cares deeply about their comfort, safety, and happiness. Every dog has their own unique needs and personality. I take the time to get to know your pup, whether that means being patient with a shy rescue, playful with an energetic puppy, or gentle with a senior who moves at their own pace. I have experience with: • Training and socializing young puppies 🐶 • Providing slow, careful care for senior dogs 💕 • Supporting anxious pets who need extra reassurance and calm 🌿 I offer consistent communication, photo updates, and a calm, nurturing presence your pet can feel safe with. My goal is always to make your dog feel at home, even when you're away. I don’t just walk dogs - I build trust, one paw at a time. 🐾 I work from home three days a week (8–5), which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or just having a calming presence nearby, I’m able to stay connected to your pet’s needs and not just check in and leave. On the days I’m home, I plan my schedule around the pets in my care, making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love-not just the basics. For pets who thrive on routine, this consistent presence can be especially comforting. Even outside my work-from-home days, I’m available for evening, early morning, or weekend care depending on your pet’s needs. I truly enjoy making pet care part of my daily rhythm - it brings a balance of joy, companionship, and purpose to my week. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety, trust, and a calm environment are always my top priorities. In your home, I work to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible - from feeding schedules to favorite toys and walking routes. I know how important consistency is, especially for anxious or sensitive pets, so I approach their care with patience, gentleness, and clear communication. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. In my own home (if applicable), I’ve created a pet-friendly, low-stress space that’s clean, secure, and filled with cozy spots for rest and play. I always do slow introductions if other pets are present, and I never leave pets unattended for long periods. Whether it's their home or mine, I aim to make every pet feel safe, seen, and loved- like they never skipped a beat while you're away.
“Kiera did a fantastic job house sitting our 2 puppies and 1 older dog! She was extremely professional and organized. She thought of creative ways to engage the puppies and loved on our golden. We will book her again!! 10/10”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I am currently raising an energetic, lab puppy that keeps me on my toes - with daily walks, playtime, and plenty of training. Through her, I’ve gained firstshand experience with the patience, consistency, and energy that dogs need to thrive. Before welcoming my lab, I cared for my previous large-breed dog through every stage of her life, from adulthood into her senior years. She lived to be 14 years old, giving me experience with the slower pace, extra attention, and gentle care that older dogs often need. Whether your dog loves long adventures, a leisurely neighborhood walk, or simply some extra companionship during the day, I'm happy to tailor each visit to their individual needs. Safety, communication, and reliability are my top priorities. I'll always treat your home and your pet with respect, follow your care instructions closely, and send plenty of photos and updates so you know your dog is happy and well cared for while you're away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and understand that every dog is different. My goal is to make each walk or visit a positive, stress-free experience—for both you and your pup. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am currently home during the day and available 24/7 to help care for your pup! I am happy to go on long walks outside or play with toys inside. I currently live in a condo with my 4 month old lab puppy, so I am experienced navigating potty breaks in apartment settings and finding the best trails outside!
About: I have been pet sitting dogs (of all sizes and with various abilities and health concerns) and cats since I was 9. I have two cats of my own in Briar Chapel, so I cannot take animals into my own house. However, I am in close proximity to all Briar Chapel homes, making it easy for me to drop by and feed or walk your animals. I am willing to stay overnight in your home if that is what you would prefer. Walking is my favorite exercise, and I'm happy to take your dogs for long walks, regardless of the weather. I have received medical and behavioral training (as a clinical psychology student), which could make me a good fit for animals with health or behavioral concerns. I also am happy to take care of any other animals you may have, as I have experience with frogs, turtles, snakes, and fish. I also have a big car, so I can take animals to the vet or to other places around town if you need it. I have an extremely flexible schedule. I can come take care of your pets multiple times a day on weekdays and weekends. I am happy to visit your home at whatever times your preferred feeding and walking schedule requires. Because I live in Briar Chapel, I am in close proximity to all Briar Chapel homes, making it easy for me to drop by and feed or walk your animals. I am willing to stay overnight in your home if that is what you would prefer. Walking is my favorite exercise, and I'm happy to take your dogs (or cats) for short or long walks, regardless of the weather. I have received medical and behavioral training, which makes me a good fit for animals with health or behavioral concerns. I am also happy to take care of any other animals you may have, as I have experience with a variety of pets, including rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, frogs, turtles, snakes, fish, and more. I also have a big car, so I can take animals to the vet or to other places around town if you need it.
“Claire came for a first weekend visit with our two dogs and it went very well. She's very professional and personable and the dogs loved her. They were extremely well cared for and the house was in immaculate condition when we returned. It was very easy to communicate with her and get a quick response.”
“Carrie stayed with our dog, who has medical issues, for several days. Carrie send updates and pictures of Penny, which allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog!”
“Cristina was absolutely wonderful!!! Our dogs are like our children, and she took care of them while we were away as if they were her's too. She was extremely reliable and thorough. We were so excited to have been introduced to Cristina (she was a rec from a friend and neighbor), and look forward to booking her many times in the future!”
“She did really great watching our two rambunctious boys, we received many updates as it was our first trip without taking them. We would highly recommend her to watch anyone’s babies, and we are definitely going to be hiring her again. Thanks for all you did for Mason and Houdini Kiki.”
“Anthony did a fantastic job taking care of our fur babies and our home. We found him to be very trustworthy, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. He showed a lot of patience and compassion with our high-energy puppy, which is no small task. He kept us updated daily with messages about their activities and how they were doing, which we really appreciated. We also came home to a clean, well-kept house. It was clear he treated our home and pets with care and respect. We would absolutely trust Anthony to watch our pets and home again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter.”
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with the special care of their beloved pets. For over a year, I worked in a lab-like setting providing daily care to a wide variety of exotic animals, including reptiles, amphibians, small mammals and birds. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, and general husbandry for each species. I also have experience caring for senior animals, including administering medication and performing nail trims, so I'm comfortable with pets who need a little extra attention and care. I currently work part-time and am finishing up my Associate's degree, which gives me a good amount of flexibility during the week to care for your fur babies. On days I work an 8-hour shift, there may be a slightly longer gap between potty breaks, but I always plan ahead and communicate clearly so you know exactly what to expect. Providing consistent, quality care for your animals is a top priority for me, no matter my schedule. When I care for your pets in their own environment, I bring nothing but comfort and love. I give excellent cuddles and scritches, and genuinely enjoy enriching their day with play. I know when to be calm and reassuring, and when to be playful and energetic, adapting to match each pet's unique personality. Every animal I care for receives quality, individualized attention tailored to exactly what they need. Above all, you can count on me to be reliable and consistent, every single time.
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, fish, house birds, and chickens as family pets. Often I’ve had responsibilities to ensure their needs were taken care of. I am very passionate about animals and enjoy spending time with them, playing, and snuggling with them. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets both at home and for friends and neighbors and hope I can bring my love and responsibility into your home to help you out with your animals needs. I have a very flexible schedule and can care for your animals as needed! Whether you need me early or late I can be there! I am more than happy to do anything your fur babies need! I can easily follow through on specific instructions and want to make sure your animals are safe and well cared for.
“Aneycia was wonderful with my pup, she’s patient and attentive, and kept me updated as needed. I was able to fully engage in the event I was attending because I was confident in Aneycia’s ability to care for my dog. I came back to a clean home and a happy dog. I highly recommend booking with her.”
“Amber was awesome!!! All of my babies were very happy when I got home I could tell they had been well taken care of!!! She stayed at my house for six days and did an awesome job. I have persnickety pets!!! And they all seem to bond with her and had less anxiety than they usually do when I leave. The house was in good shape when I got home no extra cleaning!!! Amber, I appreciate you so much thank you so much for taking care of my babies as if they were yours I will be booking you again for sure!!!!”
“Meredith did a fantastic job taking care of our two kitties while we were on vacation. Especially since one of them is older, needs to take medicine he hates, and can be a fussy eater. Meredith patiently figured out just what to do to keep him healthy, and we returned to both of them in good shape!”

It was Maverick’s first time with Chelsea. She did overnight stays at our house for a long weekend. We received regular pupdates and pictures of our sweet boy. We really appreciated the communication. The house was exactly how we left it and we couldn’t be happier with her sitting our boy.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bynum
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bynum on Rover is $52.54 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 2,794 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bynum. 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 Bynum 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 Bynum 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 Bynum 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.

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.
