“Kevin is the absolute best! Our two dogs were anxious and unsure when we left, and Kevin was gentle and patient with them. He gives regular updates and photos of our pets, and responds to any inquiries immediately. Our house was immaculate when we returned. We highly recommend him and he is always our first choice when we need a pet sitter!”
About: I have watched dogs, cats, fish, almost everything you can think of. I love watching pets and want to make more out of it and be of help when I can! I’m able to fit pet care into my schedule by planning ahead and being flexible with visits and stays whenever possible. I keep my commitments organized so I can give each pet my full attention without rushing. I’m reliable with timing and communication, and I make sure pet care is a priority when I’ve accepted a booking. Whether it’s drop-ins, feeding, litter box care, or playtime, I work to make my availability consistent and dependable so your pets are cared for when they need it most. Your pet’s safety and your trust are my top priorities. I take time to follow all care instructions carefully, keep a close eye on each pet, and make sure their environment stays clean, calm, and secure. I’m attentive to details like feeding routines, litter box care, behavior changes, and comfort levels so nothing gets missed. I also believe in clear communication, so you’ll receive updates and reassurance while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.
“Leah was super great!! I give a full star rating. She was wonderful with the dogs and was very easy to work with. She was flexible when we got stuck out of town with late spring snowstorm. She cleaned around the house before she left.”
About: I grew up working at my parents dog kennel that was attached to our house. I took care of dogs, cats, birds, and occasionally rodents. I would help my parents scoop the yard, clean the kennels, and walk the dogs since I was 8. I now own a beautiful dog of my own who is the light of my life. For the last three years, I lived with three dogs of varying ages and sizes and helped to administer medications, train, love them equally. I would now love to be a part of your pet's lives too. I currently work part time and will have plenty of time to accommodate your pet's needs as long as the expectations are discussed prior and clearly to ensure a successful sitting experience. I am often told that dogs and cats quickly feel comfortable with me. If they are outgoing, I love to pet and play with them, if they are shy, then I am good at offering interactions while still giving the pet their space.
“Emily was wonderful! Our dog has lots of little quirks and can require lots of energy from a dog sitter. Emily did great with him. We’re so grateful to have found someone that can cater to his needs and stay in our home. Would absolutely recommend Emily!”
“Our dogs love Dillon and we do too! It’s so reassuring to leave our house and beloved pets in his car when we’re gone. The house looks great when return and the animals are happy and contended thank you, Dillon.”
“This is the second time we have had Kaya watch our poodle, she was very relaxed when we got home, and house was as we left better than we left it. Would have her watch Anya again.”
“Katherine did an exceptional job! She was reliable, punctual, friendly, and most importantly… She took excellent care of our two wild little dogs. She kept our planters watered in this extreme heat, and left everything clean. She definitely is on the top of our list.”
About: I have plenty of pup care from family, friends and fur babies of my own. I can do anything your baby needs and more. From only a few weeks old to an old doggo. My schedules are super flexible whatever your pup or kitty needs I can make happen for them. I am a SAHM with 2 kiddos sometimes they may need to tag along. I wake up early most days and take my pup out for a potty break and following that I feed her. Depending how busy the day is I will take her to the park or if I am watching other pets I will take them on a super long walk.
“Tarryn did a great job taking care of my two dogs! She took them on lots of walks to help their separation anxiety and truly tried to make them as comfortable as possible while we were away. She sent us updates almost daily and sent lots of cute pictures!”
“This was my first time using Erika and she was great! She was very communicative and asked clarifying questions, as Ginger was anxious from the wind and unknown reasons. Erika is very caring and I can tell she loves animals. Ginger was happy and healthy when I came home and my house was clean and well cared for!”
“Scarlet was very attentive to the needs of our pets, sending pictures and updates. She left the house clean, started the dishwasher, and washed the sheets that were on the bed. We will definitely use her again.”
“Sydnee Took great care of our dogs and was easy to work with. She was easy to reach by text or phone and very responsive. She is obviously an animal lover and send us pictures of the dogs while we were gone.”
“Marissa was awesome! She listed to all my details during the meet and greet. She was communicative and responsible. She sent me regular updates. I came home to happy dogs. I’m absolutely using her again and I would recommend her!”
“I’ve been working with Jessica for years and my dogs always thrive under her care! I have two rescues who are very skittish, but she is great with them. She’s even helped them progress on things they struggle with when I go out of town! She’s the best.”
“Rory was fantastic! 11ish days with my temperamental chi and his 4 kitties... I will definitely be keeping her on my shortlist for future trips! Rory sent pics and videos during my trip to help ease my anxiety of being away from the babies. I can tell my brood had a good experience!”
“I’ve been using Rover for many years, and Ellie might be the best sitter we’ve had yet. Our pup absolutely loved her, and we felt comfortable with her right away — which let us truly enjoy our time away. We’re hoping she’s available for us again in the future!”
“Nicole was fantastic! After reading her bio and seeing her credentials we knew we were in good hands. She is incredibly communicative and sent us lots of photos. The apartment was left in amazing condition which is such a relief after getting back from a week-long trip. She took the time to come and meet our Louie first and was very attentive about following his schedule to ensure he was comfortable while we were away. We couldn’t have found a better option for our pet-sitting needs and will definitely be using her again :)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,140 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carr. 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 Carr 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 Carr 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 Carr 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.
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.
