About: Hi! I'm Emily, and we just moved to the Avon/Danville border with 10 acres of play room. I have 5 kiddos who will love and snuggle your pet just like you would. Your pet will fit right in with our loving family. We have a military German Shepard (14 years old) who is just a lazy girl anymore but use to different dogs in her home. We have experience in caring for many types of pets and have experience giving medications. I work from home so I am here with them all day so your loved one is not locked in a kennel all day. **Please only select times that you can be here for pick up and drop off. I work from home so I move meetings around the times that you select or kids activities for pick up and drop offs. You not being on time may result in me not be available at the time you decide to show up. I am flexible, but only with communication.** Looking forward to spending time with your pet! I work from home so I am able to have a more strict schedule on letting your loved pet outside, take on walks, and dispense medication. Kids are home and will snuggle and play even more with your pet as wished. I have two friendly dogs and 5 kiddos who can help keep your baby company and well cared for. We really try to follow your schedule. If you crate train, then we will continue your schedule. If not, then we won't. We really try to follow what your pup is used to to ease any anxiety.

Molly went above and beyond, even offering to cut our grass for us! She made us feel so at ease leaving our babies at home while she loved and spoiled them.

This was a last minute booking and I truly appreciate Ben's flexibility. The dogs loved him and the knowledge that my pups were happy and being well cared for is priceless. Ben was communicative throughout and was diligent in obtaining the critical information about diet and personalities of my two dogs. Highly recommend!

Heather was brave enough to house sit our cane corso for us, knowing he was going to be scared of her and not likely to warm up to her. She was very patient with him. She said he did finally come take a treat from her but immediately ran away. This was probably the best experience we’ve had with him as he was able to go in and out on his, and he ate every meal after she would leave. We’re very grateful for her!

Danielle was amazing! She took care of my 2 older kitties one of which has to take medicine 2 times a day! She came morning and night to administer her meds, cleaned the liter box and made sure all was picked up! Would definitely recommend and would be sure to use Danielle again!

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog and recently became a dog owner myself, and I quickly realized just how much joy, comfort, and companionship they bring into our lives. I’m completely obsessed with my own pup and know firsthand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable when you can’t be there. There was a time when I needed someone to help care for my pup, and I remember how much that support meant to me. Now, I’d love to be that person for other pet parents. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and affection I’d want for my own. I’m excited to get to know each pup’s unique personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾 With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pup the walks, attention, and love they deserve! 🐾 I know how much peace of mind it brings to have someone you trust care for your dog, and I’d love to be that person for you and your pup. My pup is crate-trained and has his own comfortable space for when I’m not home, but otherwise he’s free to roam around the house as he pleases. We also have a backyard where he can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and explore. I want any dog staying with us to feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home.

Kevin was wonderful! We received multiple updates throughout our trip and fun pictures of a happy pup. Echo got to go on walks, play in his back yard and snuggle. Additionally, our house was spotless when we returned. We were thrilled to return to both a well-kept doggo and home!

About: Throughout my life, I have grown up being around dogs and cats and have taken care of my own pets within my household. From my experiences, I have taken on basic responsibilities such as feeding, playing, walking, cleaning up, and giving them lots of cuddles and affection! I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs, and I am very attentive and patient when it comes to providing care that makes them feel comfortable and safe. I am excited to provide reliable and loving care for your pets and treat them as if they are my own! I am currently a college student taking courses online, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am generally available Monday through Friday from 9am-2pm, while my weekend availability will vary. However, I am happy to discuss scheduling further and will do my very best to accommodate your pet's needs! When caring for your pets, their comfort and safety is my top priorities. I will follow any specific instructions that you may have regarding walking or feeding schedules, as well as any other needs that your pet may have. I understand that each pet is different, so I will take the time to get to know their personality and make sure they feel comfortable while in my care. I will also treat your home to the utmost respect and ensure that it remains clean and safe for your pets. My goal is provide you with peace of mind while you are away and give your pets plenty of love, attention, and snuggles!

Faith did a great job she showed up on time and followed my instructions perfectly. Ozzie is a little nervous in his old age and she made sure to spend time with him and keep a close eye on him to keep him settled. I would use Faith again for sure.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and parrots since I’ve been old enough to walk. I grew up with a plethora of different breeds and personalities of animals and have been able to connect with all of them. I currently work full-time in downtown Indianapolis, Monday-Thursday from 8 am-5:30 pm, so my availability would be outside of those hours for those days. Friday-Sunday, I have open availability. I have two cats of my own who are indoor-only. I am not able to bring outside cats or dogs into my own home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cartersburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Cartersburg on Rover is $53.28 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,422 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cartersburg. 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 Cartersburg 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 Cartersburg 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 Cartersburg 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cartersburg. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% can help with daily exercise

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.
