“Joining in on all the great reviews for Heather. She stayed with our two pups for two weeks while we were on vacation. Her care for our dogs allowed us to relax and not worry about home. It's a bonus to have someone who will do overnights and be a house sitter as well. Thank you Heather, so much!”
“This is the second time Chris watched our dog and cat. 100 stars! She is so kind and compassionate and sends me multiple pictures and messages while we are gone. Highly recommend!”
“Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! My home was left cleaned and organized and my pups were happy as can be. She was prompt to respond and even though i was away for only a weekend, she made sure to send pictures and videos to me. Would highly recommend!”
“Leigh was amazing with Duch yet again! I was updated without having to ask and had the peace of mind that Duch was in great care! Leigh goes above and beyond and I was so thankful to come back to a happy pup!”
“Maurisa did a great job with my dog! She sent lots of great photos, which I really appreciated. I could tell he was being pampered and was clearly enjoying himself. She was also incredibly flexible and followed all the silly instructions overprotective dog moms have. I can't imagine a better person to care for my pup.”
“Jessica did a fantastic job staying with my dogs while we were out of town. She was very thoughtful and regularly sent updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Leslie was amazing! She stayed at my house for a whole week with my two dogs. She kept me informed numerous times of the day. My dogs loved her and my house was in great order when I got home! I felt so comfortable with Leslie’s care! I will definitely book her again! She is very professional, respectful and kind:)”
“Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.”
“Debra was great- communicated frequently while she took care of our fur babies. Sent pictures and left the house cleaner then when we left! I’ve already asked her to help us out again in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Lillie did a great job with her drop in and overnight visit with our Lexi. She is a very conscientious individual who kept us well Informed of everything that was happening while we were away. We felt extremely comfortable with her caring for our 15 year old cockapoo while we were away and we definitely will use her again in the future. Beth”
About: I have a house where I can provide individual or group care for dogs. I co-own a dog named French Fry, who has been a significant part of my training experience. I am available for boarding on weekends, starting Saturday morning and continuing until either Monday or Tuesday evening. Additionally, I have availability during certain holiday periods. I have a partially fenced-in yard and a metal crate available for dogs if needed. I follow any instructions that pet owners provide. I have a peace and calm environment for dog care.
“Megan was great. My pets were happy & well cared for. She kept in touch with us & sent pictures . This made me feel calmer leaving them with her. I would have Megan watch them again.”
“Jackie was wonderful! She accommodated our request last minute—and sent great pictures of our puppy! If I were to travel to Wilmington again, I would feel very comfortable asking Jackie to help us again!”
“Cyndal was amazing! Kept us updated throughout her stay with our pup. Our husky mix can be a bit much for some people but Cyndal wasn’t even phased with her high energy and anxiety. We can’t thank her enough 😊”
“Paz took copious notes during our initial meeting. She was on time and took great care of our energetic puppy. Paz checked in daily and texted picks of our puppy on walks, getting meals and cuddles. I miss my dog terribly when I'm away traveling, but it was comforting to know she was well loved in my absence.”
“Sarah was wonderful! My dogs clearly loved her and they got lots of snuggles and walks while we were gone. She was also really good about communicating her schedule and sent me daily updates and pictures of the pups. We are looking forward to having her back.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carrcroft
This was our first time using Maurissa as a sitter in our home. She took copious notes regarding our dog's medication schedule, emergency procedures and daily routine. She was attentive to Pandora’s exercise limits and took her cues from Pandora when she needed to rest. Our house was in perfect shape when we returned and Maurissa even washed the sheets and towels she had used before we came home. We are definitely going to book Maurissa again and I know that Pandora will be excited to see her.
Roberta is an outstanding dog sitter! Our pit bull mix is anxious and can be aggressive, but Roberta knew exactly how to control her body language and introduce herself so that Wren was put at ease. After a professional meet and greet where Roberta filled out a sheet of questions for our dog and home, we felt comfortable moving forward with the weeklong homesitting that we were looking for. The house sitting went perfectly - Roberta updated every evening and sent pictures of our pup when we asked. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter than Roberta, and highly recommend her!
Chris was excellent! She took great care of Lance and kept us informed. Chris had to deal with him wearing a cone and needing daily medication. She did both of those things with no fuss and allowed Lance to stay in his home while we were away. The daily photos were very reassuring. We wouldn't hesitate to use Chris again whenever the need should arise.
Justice was excellent with our dog Phoebe! We could tell when we first met her that she was kind and responsible. She sent us updates with pictures of our pup while we were away. She took care of our home and our fur baby just as we would have and we plan to use her again for our future trips. We appreciate her so much and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!! 💛
We had a wonderful experience with Leslie. She watched both our dog and cat, sent us frequent updates and photos, implemented each pets feeding and care schedule and still found time to pet and play with them! She provided us with peace of mind while we were on vacation and we look forward to using her again in the future.
I and my dog Mosquito couldn't have been happier with Nina. I was traveling for two weeks and this was the first time Mosquito and I would be separated. He is a rescue and has separation anxiety but not with Nina's company and dog/house sitting services. The transition for him was seamless. Highly recommended!
Oh my gosh!! Sharielle is absolutely amazing!!! She went above and beyond with communication (I mean she’s the best at everything). My pup stresses so much when I’m away and he was so happy and comfortable! If she’ll have us I’d absolutely reach out to her again! No brainer five stars, I’d give more if I could!
We were lucky to have Joy care for our small dog, Holly, in our home for about 8 days. She was great about keeping us updated on Holly and about things going on at our house. Our house was very neat and clean when we returned, which was so nice after a long trip! We would love to have Joy watch Holly again and would recommend her to anyone who needs care for their pet.
Nick was extremely patient with our very recent rescue who was experiencing quite a bit of anxiety when we had to leave her for an out-of-town obligation. She gave him a pretty hard time for the first 24 hrs but he persevered and surely won her over! Thank you! We are very grateful for his great service!

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 Carrcroft 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 Carrcroft 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Carrcroft 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 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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
