“We are very pleased with Lindsey. She took real good care of our Rocky. She communicated with us the entire time she was caring for our pup. We highly recommend her and we definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I've taken care of multiple types of animals over the years! Dogs, cats, birds, bugs, reptiles, rodents, amphibians and fish! Much of my experience comes from working at PetSmart and owning most of these animals myself! I have 2 Rottweiler/Husky mixes, 2 cats, a cornsnake, 5 birds (Sun Conure, Green Cheek Conure, Cockatiel, and 2 Budgies!), 3 axolotls, one tank of Koi and Goldfish, and another tank of tropical fish! I currently work part-time at PetSmart as a pet caretaker! I have Thursdays off, but my work schedule doesn't normally get in the way. I always wait for an animal to greet me first to avoid stressing the pet out. I normally have calming chews and treats on me to try to encourage the animal that I am not a threat.
About: I am a dependable and compassionate pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other household pets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to build trust while providing attentive, personalized care. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, cleaning up after pets, providing companionship, and maintaining consistent routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I am proud of my commitment to treating every pet like family. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being so I can quickly notice any changes that may need attention. I communicate regularly with pet owners, provide updates and photos, and always strive to give them peace of mind while they’re away. I am patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether caring for energetic puppies, senior pets, or shy animals that need extra patience, I provide loving, responsible care that keeps pets happy, healthy, and safe. I work from home with generous breaks. While my schedule is 9-5, I wake early to go on walks in my neighborhood, and my work day includes 1.5 hours of breaks. After work is much like “before work”. A pet would work perfectly in this schedule I have a 3 story townhome and garage! I recently installed a fence! I will keep the pet entertained with fetch, and other stimulating games and puzzles

“Michael was great... he kept me updated with photos and was in and out as if he was never there! Followed my requests for my dog to a T! Highly, highly recommended! Very responsive. Thank you, Michael!”
About: Having grown up with pets my entire life (from pigs and peacocks to dogs and guinea pigs), I understand the importance of providing great care to all furry friends. I have two dogs of my own, a 4 year old lab and 7 year old Cavapoo. I am happy to provide play time, snuggle time, walks, and medication (if necessary) for puppies to senior dogs. I know leaving your fur baby in the care of someone else can be stressful, so I try to alleviate that stress by being responsive, providing updates, and loving on your pet while you are away. **please note, I do not provide care for aggressive dogs. Thank you for understanding!!! I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I work part time from home, and am able to provide walks, play time, and couch time if you have a snuggler. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs. For them, we enjoy nightly walks, afternoon fetch, and morning treats. If you board in our home, your pet must be dog and kid friendly. At your home, I can provide play time, walks, and tons of love and affection.
About: I've taken care off two dogs before inside my home and other persons home. I still do inside my home but only for small dogs. My one cat dont like big dogs I can do any days depending on my work schedule that I have. I need 2 week in advance just for that reason so I know what times and day that I need available I take care of feeding dogs and cats, cleaning litter box, and walking the dogs and playing with them and Bonding with them. I also took care of farm animals too before
“What a great experience with MK. Both Quincy and I were anxious but she was patient with him and very responsive with me. Would definitely recommend her and look to have her take care of Quincy in the future.”
“Amber was fabulous with our dog and wonderful at communicating with us while we were away! I knew through seeing the many happy pictures of our boy that he was in good hands 🙂 I would highly recommend her to anyone, and would absolutely use her services again!”
“This was our first time using a professional pet sitter and we were going on a trip where we had limited access to email, text, message and phone. It was very difficult for us to leave our pups with someone we didn't know, but let me tell you...I've never seen my pups happier when I returned home. Nate sent lots of updates, so that we would know what was going on at home and contacted me immediately when he thought something wasn't right with one of my pups. Nate also left our home in pristine condition. I highly recommend Nate as a pet sitter and we will definitely use him again.”

“Tiffany took excellent care of my 2 girls in my home. She sent lots of updates and pictures. She really made me comfortable leaving them and allowed me to enjoy my trip. My home was neat and tidy when I returned home. It was a pleasure meeting Tiffany.”
“Lauren was friendly and even came a little early! I left for work knowing Diego was a happy pup in good hands. He greeted her with lots of kisses and even took the initiative to find out where cleaning supplies were after I mentioned Diego happy pees and cleaned up after him without needing to be asked. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thanks Lauren :)”
“Taylor was a last minute lifesaver because I accidentally booked the wrong dates with our regular in home dog sitter. Outside of this, Taylor did an awesome job with our three rambunctious dogs, sent updates with pictures and even vacuumed before she left. We can’t wait to rebook with Taylor!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have always enjoyed caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have cats and a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ve also pet sat for friends while they’re out of town and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities. I’m currently a college student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and visit when it’s most convenient for you and them. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, belly rubs, snuggles, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I know being away from your pets can be stressful, so I’ll gladly send photo and video updates during my visits to help give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for until you’re back home. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet pets!

For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their individual needs and personality. I have a fenced yard and may be available for daycare services on a case-by-case basis. If needed, I can crate your dog according to your instructions to help keep them safe and comfortable. I’ll also gladly provide photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“This is the first time we've used Rover for house/pet sitting. Our first choice was Lana. Lana came to meet us and our pets and we felt very comfortable w/ her from the moment we met. She cared about our pets and was interested in their individual needs, likes, and dislikes. We were very comfortable going way w/ Lana here to take care of our fur babies. She kept in touch, sent pictures, and ask questions when needed. She also cleaned up after herself and washed the bedding, towels, and dog blankets before she left. We certainly didn't expect this, but it was GREATLY appreciated! You couldn't tell she was ever here as things were just as we left them. We will DEFINITELY use Lana again if she is available. Thank you so much Lana for letting us have a worry free vacation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cherry Run on Rover is $23 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 438 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cherry Run. 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 Cherry Run 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 Cherry Run 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 Cherry Run 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 Cherry Run. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
