“Nikolaas was an amazing dog sitter to our two pups. Our boys can get anxious without us, but they loved him. He was super communicative, sent lots of updates and pictures, and I felt much more at ease leaving home. We will definitely book him in the future.”
“Jessica is amazing!!! My dogs are relaxed when I got back home and were well taken care of! House was spotless, she communicated everything, and I received regular photo updates. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Robbyn. Jackson immediately connected with her, and he was more relaxed than I’ve ever seen him for a high energy puppy. She kept the place spotless, communicated regularly, and sent plenty of photos so I always knew he was doing well. I’m truly grateful for the care she provided, and I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Michael was an excellent pet/house sitter. He was quick and concise with communication and immediately scheduled a meet and greet (without me requesting one). During the meet and greet I could tell our boys were already comfortable with him (and he with them). He asked specific questions about the dogs that focused on their wellfare. We were uncertain of our times and he was willing a ready to work around our schedule. I received updates and pictures as well as questions and clarification. When we returned home the house was exactly as we left it. In short, he's exactly what we want in a petsitter and it led to a very stress-free weekend. Thank you Michael!”
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats for over 16 years, and I treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I understand how important it is to provide them with patience, love, attention, and a safe environment. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐾❤️ I currently work part time running my own business and I choose when I want to work, so it gives me more time with our pets and children. I have a fenced yard, and we are looking at adding a play area for the dogs to enjoy their time outside. The fenced portion is about 1/2 of an acre.
“If you're looking for someone who will take care of your animals and your home, Ashlee and Dehaven are the ones for you! After our initial meeting we felt extremely comfortable leaving them in charge. The animals were happy and the house was clean on our return. They both have excellent communication skills and are a pleasure to work with. I can't thank them enough for taking such excellent care of everything! I'm looking forward to our next vacation. These two are the best!!!”
“Kelsey was extremely professional and friendly. He took great care of our Raven, was very communicative and spent a lot of time with our pup. I didn't message him until a couple days before our trip and he still made the time for a meet and greet and was on time for both that and our actual appointment. He sent great pictures of our girl every day and she was smiling in every one of them. We will definitely look to book him again next time we travel.”
“Angie house sit for my 14 week old puppy while I was at the conference for 4 days. I was very impressed by how much she was attentive to my puppy, letting me know how he was doing on a regular basis, and even training him a few commands. I came home, finding much better-behaving dog, and her notes about what she observed about my dog and suggestions. My puppy and I definitely look forward to seeing her again!”
“Erin was amazing! She was very easy to communicate with to set up the booking, asked plenty of questions to make sure Diablo and I were taken care of, and sent me picture and video updates of them enjoying each other's company. If possible, I will book her again in the future!”
“Felicia was great with my poodles. She also was very respectful of my house and our routines. I highly recommend her if you are looking for reliable pet care. She did an awesome job!”
About: I have taken care of a variety of different pets with different conditions since I was a kid. I know how to administer oral medications daily and have knowledge of mobility issues as well. I have a lot of knowledge of birds as well due to me having parakeets and a conure. I would love to be considered for help of almost any animal you have! Just ask me questions and I will answer. Thank you :) I always have mondays off, but my schedule for the week is posted on that day. Due to this i need at least a weeks worth of notice for anything if i need to communicate scheduling. Thank you Learning the needs/likes of the animal to interact better and make sure they are comfortable while their trusted companion's are away. If there is a special way your pet needs to do anything, then I am more than happy to learn.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for about 8 years and I’ve honestly always loved being around animals. I started by helping neighbors, friends, and family, and it just turned into something I really enjoy doing.I’m super patient and I pay attention to what each pet needs, because I know every dog is different. I have experience with all kinds of dogs big, small, puppies, seniors and I’m good at matching their energy whether they wanna play a lot or just chill.I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I also know how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I’ll always keep you updated and make sure you feel good about everything. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I have a good amount of time to focus on your pet and not rush anything. I’m available most days and can work around your pet’s normal routine, whether that’s walks, feeding times, or just hanging out with them.I’m also good with last-minute bookings when I can, so if you ever need help, I’ll always try my best to make it work. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, whether I’m in your home or mine. I pay attention to their behavior and needs so they feel relaxed and not stressed while you’re away.I’ll follow whatever routine you have for them and keep things consistent, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I take that responsibility seriously.
About: Dogs have become a true passion of mine. I provide more than feeding and walks; I focus on understanding each dog’s behavior, body language, and individual needs. I’ve worked extensively with puppies and adolescent dogs, helping build confidence, good manners, and positive social skills through structure, patience, and consistency. I carefully monitor eating habits, energy levels, and overall health while dogs are in my care, and I keep owners updated with photos and detailed communication. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, or simply relax, my goal is to provide a safe, calm environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. My schedule allows me to give dogs plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I plan my routine around exercise, structured play, rest periods, potty breaks, and enrichment rather than leaving dogs unattended for long stretches. I strive to maintain each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Safety is always my highest priority. Every new dog is introduced gradually based on temperament and comfort level. I have experience using crates appropriately for rest, meals, and decompression when needed, and I carefully supervise all interactions between dogs. If your dog prefers quiet one-on-one attention, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. I believe every dog is an individual. I take time to observe behavior, communication, and comfort level so I can provide care that fits each dog’s personality rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
“Ginny did a great job!!! My dogs were well loved and had excellent care. Ginny administered medicine for my pet's while she took care of them. She spent two full days with them. She even emptied my dishwasher. Ginny truly loves animals and my pets were so happy to see her. She played with them in the yard. Ginny sent me a text each day to let me know how they were doing. We were very satisfied with Ginny. She will be the first person we call when we need a sitter again.”

About: My name is Alannah and I am 20 years old. I love animals, I have experience pet sitting, I worked in a kennel and have helped deliver several litters of labs, I have had animals in my household since I was born, and I would love to help you keep your pets happy and cared for whenever you might need the extra help. I am in the military but work a shortened schedule, and I cannot have an animal of my own since I could go on deployments last minute. I love animals, dogs the most, and I would love so much to come take care of any pets and just lend some help. I currently work part time hours so I have plenty of time to care for animals. My average hours are 8-12 am. I have volunteered at some shelters to care for some cats and dogs, and I am actually considering fostering. I just love pets but am not in a stable enough environment to keep one with being in the military and I could have to leave for months on end with no notice. I am very respectful, will follow any and all restrictions / directions, and I have great decision making. I will know what to do to keep your pet safe and happy. Any sort of extra care I have no issue providing I am very attentive and very respectful of not only your wishes but also your space if you invite me to your home. I am eager and excited to help as needed.
“Zimir was wonderful! He took great care of my goldens and cat. He kept me updated with photos and updates and was very responsive! He left my house just the way I left it & was very sweet from the very first meet and greet. If you are looking for someone to watch your fur babies I recommend him! ☺️ I will definitely be using him in the future.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Carrsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 518 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Carrsville. 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 Carrsville 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 Carrsville 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 Carrsville 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.
