“Julie was wonderful! She came prior to our getaway to meet us and our animals. She kept us updated on how they were doing while we were gone and with pictures! My dogs seemed very comfortable with her! Grateful to have found her and look forward to more getaways now that we have a sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. At 13, I started a neighborhood dog-walking business for owners who were “too pooped to walk their dogs,” which quickly grew into in-home and overnight dog sitting. I got my first dog at age ten and trained her myself, and I’ve since attended multiple dog training classes because I genuinely enjoy working with dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for labs, golden doodles, pit bulls, and more for families that I have worked with through high school and college. Now that I have my own home (next to a park) I’m excited to start again with plenty of space, structure, and love for every pup. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m an emergency nurse and work every Monday and Tuesday and every other weekend, which gives me most weekdays free and flexible for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. On my off days, I enjoy staying active with walking, running, and hiking, and I love including dogs in those activities for both exercise and enrichment. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives consistent attention, timely care, and plenty of love. Safety and trust are my top priorities. As an emergency nurse, I have strong medical training and stay calm and attentive in all situations, including emergencies. I closely follow pet parents’ instructions and routines in both my home and theirs, ensuring a low-stress, loving environment. I provide supervised play, secure walks, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Living next to a park gives dogs safe space to explore, exercise, and enjoy structured outdoor time while always being carefully monitored.

“Nadia was wonderful! She watched our pets while we were out of the country for two weeks and kept in regular communication and always sent fun photos. We recently moved to the area so I feel such a relief in finding someone who I can trust and that my pets enjoying being with.”

“Jayda was awesome, we have a dog who stresses out a lot and can’t go anywhere. So it was important to have someone come to the house and stay. We highly recommend her and will use her again.”


“Kim did a wonderful job with our babies. She was great with communication and sent lots of pics :) loved hearing from her. All our babies were happy and the house was in perfect condition join our return. Would definitely recommend and book Kim again! ♥️”

“Sketcher did great housesitting our anxious 2 yr old dog and 11 yr old indoor cat. She was good at communicating promptly during booking and during the stay. We came home to happy pets and everything was as expected.”

“She was amazing with our fur baby Milo! We can not recommend her enough! she went above and beyond in everything with him. She even took him to a place for him to play and now we have a new spot to take him that we didn’t know about. Our baby was happy and well taken care of with her! If we ever need someone again I know who our first call will be!”

About: Growing up, my family always had at least two dogs at all times. Although I don’t have a dog of my own, I love taking care of and spending time with other people’s dogs. 🩷 I am a teacher by day (Aug-end of May) and dog sitter on the side! I love kids but dogs truly have my heart. The bigger, the better! I am a teacher, so I will be gone from 6:30am-3:30pm. I have watched dogs while I’ve been at school who are used to be alone for an extended amount of time but but I will walk them prior to leaving for work and then spend the evening with them once I get home. :) ***If your dog isn’t used to being alone while I would be at work, I do have someone who can check on your pet and also take them out midday while I’m at work! :) Although I do not have a fenced in yard, my neighborhood community has a fenced in dog park area to give your dog(s) the space and freedom to roam as needed. :)
“Azsha did an amazing job! My fur babies were happy and she sent pictures with updates on a regular basis. I would 100% recommend Azsha for her services and will definitely be rebooking!”


About: I have lived with pets my entire life, I have a 5 year old dog currently. Additionally, I’ve pet sat for friends and family frequently when they leave for trips and used to help my grandmother foster kittens! I’m currently a senior at Clemson with a light schedule so I can drop by before/after classes with ease! I have time in the mornings and afternoons for walks and am available most days for pet sitting! I have a very active dog and am used to playing or walking outside for enrichment time. I grew up around cats and dogs and am very fond of both! Whether you need someone to play with them or just keep them company I would love to meet your fur baby.

About: I have been on Rover for over a year now and have fallen in love with pet sitting! I have several repeat clients who I love. I have always had dogs in my house and I am currently raising my puppy Roy! I feel as though pets have more feelings than humans so I make sure to give them special attention! I am a full time student at Clemson University and work a part time job so when i’m away from those i always make sure to spend time playing with my dog and taking care of him. I love to be around and let him hangout with me anytime I can since he’s so sweet and funny! I typically find myself watching a few pets every month! I typically work a few days out of the week and 4-6 hour shifts! These 4-6 hour shifts are either 10am-3pm or 3pm-9pm! I always give pets as much attention as they will let me. I feel as though feedings schedules and daily walks and attention are necessary for animals. I also like to make sure they have clean food and water and plenty of it! I also make sure to pay special attention to their body language and can change my routines or anything they may need to make them more comfortable.

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats my whole life! My current pet, Gus, is a pomeranian-bichon. Im experienced in dog sitting and training. Fun fact, i’ve also had fancy mice before! I’d love to ease your mind and give your babies the care they need when you’re unable to. I am working Part-Time, so on days that I work, i can be available before 10, and after 7:30. On days when I’m off, I can do anytime! I have a fenced in yard that accommodates my 3 dogs here at home. We also take care of several strays in the neighborhood that have a little sanctuary on the front porch.
About: Pets have so much fun here, they try to come back in during pickup time! My family and friends also help play with dogs and assist with drop off. Look for the yellow sign at 1210. For boarding schedule between 7am and 745pm, only bring dog food. All pickups and drop offs must be before 8pm. No bowls, no beds, no leashes, there are plenty of extras here. Several dogs here play together everyday like a big dog park so I can only take healthy active dogs that do not have any infectious or contagious illnesses. The best fit is a playful friendly dog that wants to run and have fun (not a dog that needs to be alone or the only pet). I cannot take senior dogs that need multiple medications or dogs with mange, or bordatella or heart worms. I provide several services including boarding, training, walking, daycare and more! My boarding schedule is usually 7am to 730pm for pet drop off and pet pickup. However, I take a day off or two and friends or family will substitute for me. I do have some family time at dinner so its best to schedule drop off and pick ups before 5pm or after 7pm to accommodate the time it takes for new arrivals. All pets get to play with other dogs. Every dog gets free time outside daily I ensure all dogs are safe and create a calming environment for them! Puppies and small dogs are welcome and do great here with the friendly group of little dogs.
About: I have always grown up with pets: 3 dogs, 1 cat, and a beared dragon. I have helped train a puppy, cared for a dying senior dog, and everything in between. I have experience with pets who have high energy, anxiety, dietary needs, and physical disabilities. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to pet sit, drop in, provide over night care, and walk their dogs. I have worked at a dog groomer for over 2 years, which has given me experience with a wide variety of animals and their temperaments. I’m a full time student at Clemson University who has most afternoons/ evenings and weekend free to care for your pets! I am studying wildlife conservation so spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! Following instructions, I can care for your pet however you direct me to. I am comfortable taking your dog for walks/ hikes, playing indoors and outdoors, dosing medications, keeping up with training, and providing all the love and comfort your pet will need while you are away!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Centerville
MB and Lindsey were phenomenal with our puggle Linus, who often has separation anxiety. We appreciated their conscientiousness so much; before we left, they were incredibly thorough in learning about Linus’s and our preferences, and we felt he got the absolute best possible care. Not only that, but they took great care of our home. A+ review—wonderful people and sitters.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 651 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Centerville. 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 Centerville 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 Centerville 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 Centerville 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.
