“Rebecca was hands-down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. From our very first communication through the end of our week away, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly attentive. She gave us complete peace of mind knowing our three babies were genuinely well cared for. We’ll absolutely be rebooking her for our next trip.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Sahara! This was the very first time I left my dogs with someone outside of my immediate family, so I was naturally nervous. From the moment I left for vacation, she made me and my fur babies feel completely at ease. She was caring, reliable, attentive, and treated my dogs like they were her own. Thank you!!!!!!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I have developed a deep and compassionate understanding of animal’s needs and behavior! I am an owner of two dogs (ages 3 and 5), and will treat your fur babies as my own. They are truly a part of the family and should be treated as such! I have experience with puppies as well as senior animals and can administer medicine, help with training, and go on walks with them! I currently work four days a week but would be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays to help out with your pet care needs! I am more of a home body on the weekends so I often do not have plans and would be able to care for your pets with no issues! There’s no better way to fill time than to take the best care of other’s pets! Animals mean the world to me and I aim to aid your animals in the way that you want them cared for. If they need to be crated, I can ensure that they are not in distress. If they have a special routine, I will make sure to adhere to that. I want your animal as comfortable around me as they’d be around their own family!
“Edi was an amazing sitter! This was a first-time experience for my dog Barry with an in-house sitter, and she absolutely spoiled him and went above and beyond to keep him happy. She sent pictures at least once a day with status updates on him, the house, the weather, etc. Communication was great from our first contact until we arrived back home from vacation. This was an overall great experience and I cannot recommend Edi enough!”

“We went out of town just after Christmas and needed a dog sitter. We were very pleased to come home to a happy, healthy pup, we had great communication the whole time and received a set of pictures and updates every evening. We will be using Maria Abigail‘s dog sitting service again!”

“Kimberlee was an excellent sitter for our two dogs. One of our dogs is very anxious and takes a long time to warm up to people, but she quickly warmed up to Kimberlee. Kimberlee kept our house tidy and even watered our plants. We would definitely book with Kimberlee again.”

“Katie was great! She provided great updates and photos on our pup. Our dog seemed really comfortable and happy while we were gone. Super thankful! She also was very kind in maintaining our home while we were gone.”

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience in both breeding and caring for them, so I am comfortable with everything from feeding and walking to basic training and daily care. I know that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether you have a playful pup or a senior dog who needs a little more patience and attention, I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I enjoy staying active, so walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets attention are things I genuinely look forward to. I will make it my priority to provide for every need of your pet! In my household, I am used to feeding my pups and their puppies, walking them, playing with them, and even doing small grooming, such as brushing and clipping their toenails.
“Patti is amazing. I felt so comfortable with Patti coming and staying at my home to watch my girls. She even sent me pictures to let me know the girls were doing well. I can't believe it but when she left, she even washed the towels and sheets and remade the bed. WOW, above and beyond for sure. I would highly recommend her for your house sitting or pet sitting needs.”

“Thank you Charlotte for taking such great care of the boys. Her communication was great with daily updates and photos as well as a fantastic portrait of Goose and Putter. It was so nice to come home and have the boys relaxed and rested rather than strung out and stressed from staying in a kennel. You can tell Charlotte truly loves and cares about animals. We are so happy we found her.”

“I couldn't recommend Jody more! Sutton was so happy and well cared for while I was away. I received photo updates and frequent check ins. Jody also went out of her way to take care of chores around the house, before I returned home. Again, I highly recommend Jody for dog/house sitting!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals so friends and family have relied on me over the years. Also, I have raised four children and many pets. I create my own schedule so reach out and we can make a time that works for you. I’m flexible. Holidays included as well as Christmas Native to the area. I have experience with many different types of animals over the years and I have four grown children and a grandchild so I have seen a lot. I’m happy to help so reach out.

About: I love dogs and cats too, I got into dog - sitting when I first moved to Georgia and my neighbor went out of town I watched her dog while she was gone and have been dog sitting ever since. I love going out and walking dogs and playing with dogs. I make sure they feel like they are loved and with their owners when I watch animals I love making them even little treats and dinners. Also if you have specific thing your animal eats then you can count on me to make sure they have a good healthy meal, I also am good about giving them their medication. I understand how people love for their animals as if they were their children and I totally get it. You worry about them and want to make sure they are taken care of well. I myself even hate the thought of my animal being alone for over a long period of time because of work or school.
“Sarah did a wonderful job with my baby.. she kept me informed with pictures and updates daily and when I returned Patch was a happy camper! Sarah's Love for animals is evident she left my house very clean and I would highly recommend her”


“I had a very long day and night at work and I needed someone last minute to come to my house and stay with my puppy dachshund. She's amazing with communication and I already knew she was going to be a great fit. BELLA loved her and I felt so safe and comfortable leaving. I got picture updates often along with check ins. If Michella is available, I'll only use her to watch Bella at my place. Thanks again Michelle!! You're Great!!”

About: I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I focus on providing dependable, loving, attentive care while keeping pets relaxed and comfortable in their own environment. What sets me apart is my flexible availability, calm personality, and genuine love for animals. I’m patient with shy pets, attentive to routines and special instructions, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals rather than just “checking in.” I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets, senior pets, and pets who may need extra attention, slower walks, medications, or a little extra reassurance while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel connected and at ease while traveling. My youngest child has gone off to college, and I’ve lovingly cared for neighbors’, friends’, and family members’ fur babies for years. That’s my grand-fur-baby English Cream Golden in the photo 🥰 I have a very flexible schedule and open availability, so your pets will get lots of attention, affection, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, evenings, overnights, and holidays. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family and always try to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. During drop-in visits and walks, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. For overnight stays in a client’s home, I aim to provide a calm, comforting presence so pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean and tidy, and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets, senior pets, and administering basic medications if needed. I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little, including my own pit bull and shih tzu. Having experience with both high energy and low energy dogs has taught me how to adjust my care to fit each pup’s needs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide loving attention to their pets. Whether your dog needs active playtime or a calm, cozy companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available throughout the day and week. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine the same so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks or playtime, and always have fresh water. I’ll also give them lots of love and attention, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Aaliya was fantastic. For our initial meeting before the job, she came over and stayed and chatted with me for over an hour. I felt very comfortable around her (as did my pets), and I felt good about her staying in my home for the weekend. She was super punctual and communicative (lots of photo and video updates!), and she left my house at least as good as it was when I left, if not better. Without hesitation, I would book with Aaliya again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Carl
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Carl on Rover is $44.4 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 2,568 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carl. 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 Carl 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 Carl 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 Carl 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.
