“Petra is so caring, communicative, and wonderful. She always sends updates and goes above and beyond to take perfect care of our pup, who she loves like her own. She’s also a fantastic houseguest. Highly recommend!”
“Our experience with Jessica was absolutely amazing. We were gone for a week, and she took such incredible care of our two dogs. Taking care of two dogs can be a lot, but Jessica handled everything so well and made the whole process stress-free for us She kept us updated regularly with pictures and messages, and it was clear the dogs were getting tons of love, attention, and care every single day. One of our dogs is usually cautious around new people and was completely adamant about not warming up to anyone at first but by mid week, they had become best buddies. Seeing that level of trust and comfort honestly meant so much to us. When we got home, the dogs were so happy, relaxed, and attached to her routine that it actually took them almost 10 minutes to realize we were back! That alone says everything about how comfortable and cared for they felt during the stay. We’re very grateful for the care and attention she gave our pups and would gladly trust her again in the future. Highly recommend”
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s, neighbors, and friend’s animals of all kinds for years. I enjoy offering them training tips as I have experience from my own dogs and spending time with their pets. I’m currently a college students and have a variety of hours in between and before class during the week and am available on the weekends. I maintain a pretty flexible schedule. I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and my family currently has three dogs and two cats. I love taking care and spending time with them! They all get along well and enjoy time in a fenced in backyard.
About: I had over ten dogs growing up, both large and small, and have had three cats. All have lived to an old age and had a wonderful quality of life! I work from 7am-3pm Monday-Friday with occasional work from homes, so I can provide pet care in the early morning and/or afternoon/evening! On weekends, I am flexible! I focus on building trust and affection with pets, ensuring play time and pets are on their terms, giving space as needed! I am big on safety and keeping a watchful eye on them.
“Katherine was a wonderful house sitter for Bondi. He looked fresh, relaxed, and happy when we returned, which clearly reflected the excellent care she provided. She also regularly shared photos and updates about the time she spent with Bondi, which gave us great peace of mind. We truly appreciate her genuine care and would be happy to recommend her.”
“Jenna and Aiden were absolutely a dream! My dogs were well cared for. We came home to happy healthy dogs and a house in better shape than when we left. They absolutely went above and beyond. They gave us updates on the dogs with pictures. We will be using them again!”
“Elisha did a wonderful job watching my shy pup and two kitties while we were gone for an evening. Although my dog is rather nervous around strangers, my pup ended up sleeping with Elisha during a storm. It gave me great comfort to know my animals were being looked after during the storm and while we were away. Looking forward to having her watch my pets again next week!! Thanks for everything, Elisha!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years including my own senior dog and feel so lucky when I form relationships with them and families. I have just recently moved to the Albany area and am available for your pet care needs. I’m excited to care for your fur babies I am available to come to your home and have a flexible schedule. Building relationships and a high level of care are my goals together
About: I am very reliable when it comes to working with animals, even farm animals! I am honored to be building long lasting relationships with both animals and their owners. I am a Veterinarian Technician. Since I was young I’ve loved animals — both learning about and taking care of them. There’s nothing I love more than being around animals everyday! I have a number of clients who have become more like family, and customers who consider me to be an integral member of their family.
“Megan is a fantastic sitter! She was responsive and professional. While I was away, she kept me updated with frequent check-ins, which I really appreciated. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were comfortable and happy. Having that level of peace of mind is rare, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you Megan!”
“Saya was everything we were looking for in a sitter. Honestly could not have asked for anyone better. She did an exceptional job taking such good care of our sweet, Bella. She communicated with us daily and was responsive to our check-ins with photos of our sweet girl. Saya went above and beyond by providing us full daily logs of food, treats and water intake, changes in behavior and potty times. She followed our care instructions and worked even harder to stick with our schedule. She created a calm and peaceful environment for our girl. This was very important to us considering this was our first time leaving our Bella behind. Saya was the perfect sitter for our senior furbaby who required a soft approach and a lot of patience. She will definitely be our contact for future care for our girl. Thank you so much, Saya!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs (and cats) for over 20 years now. Along the way, friends, and family members have trusted me with taking care of their furry friends! Including walking, feeding, bathing, training, and of course playing with them! I work a full time job with flexible hours, I take care of pets in my free time just because of my love for pets! The only required time I have is from 9am-1pm on Sundays, othere then that there should be no contentions with my schedule. In my own apartment, there is currently a cat, he is very friendly and gets along and plays with others. In most cases, I travel and care for pets at the clients house (especially for overnight and long term stays.)
“Ryan was AMAZING! She communicated with me frequently throughout her stay and was so incredible with my dog, Bri! She was caring, kind, and took great care of my fur baby as well as my apartment! I will definitely be booking her again and can’t thank her enough!”
About: Dogs are a gift to the earth we will never be able to fully appreciate or understand, the protection and kindness and beauty of their soul is something I truly admire. My roommate in college and longtime best friend has a “Canine Training and Management” degree and I have learned extensive tricks and tools from her to help with any disciplinary issues you may have. Dogs just need to be understood and most of the time we just aren’t listening! I have two cats, who are my world. When I’m not working I’m spending most of my time playing with them, cleaning up after them, and making them happy! I would treat your animals as if they were my own, with the level of protection and care that I would protect my own babies with.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I worked on a farm in 2023 and the rest of my experience is from dog sitting at clients homes, dog walking, house sitting, etc, as well as my own pets. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule and can check on your pet periodically throughout the day, free all night and on weekends I’d be happy to house sit for you while watching your furry loved ones and taking them on walks, feeding, etc. I am also very good at bathing all animals if needed!
“Rebecca is wonderful! She was easy to stay in touch with, responsive and so pleasant. Rosie really liked her right away and Rebecca handled Rosie's exuberance and energy so well. We felt very comfortable leaving Rosie in Rebecca's care, we received updates that they were doing well and we can home to a happy dog and a clean house. We'd be thrilled to work with Rebecca again in the future!”
About: Physically fit, responsible and reliable pet lover. I have worked with cats, dogs and reptiles for over 27 years! I’d love to help your pet’s needs. I offer walks, house sitting and drop ins. Let’s make your pet feel happy and safe! I have a very flexible schedule and I am a very early riser for morning walks, feeding and play time. Please feel free to book me for multiple times during the day. I will make sure to feed, groom, walk, play and medicate your pets as needed. I’m very comfortable with most breeds and love making animals happy.
About: I've had pets in the past and love caring for them and playing with them. Grew up with a cat, had a dog and coserved a cat with my wife. Because we may move some time internationally, we haven't wanted to make a long term commitment, be we would love to be grandpetparents where we help out by babysitting while people need to travel pet free for a short time. I work full time but from home several days a week. My son, who loves animals will be around on days I am not at home. We would welcome any pets as part of the family. They can cuddle with us on the couch and play out in the yard or chill on our screened in porch. Unfortunately, we cant care forndigs for more than 5 or 6 days as we arent physically able to care for them.
About: I can care for puppies, and give special tender-loving care to senior or disabled dogs. I am skilled at reinforcing training and giving snuggles. Whether your pet needs just a check-in or you'll be out of town for up to week, I will make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and well cared for. My dogs have all been special needs, from my last dog: Rowan, Mini Aussie pup that we got from a little farm who had anxiety, to my first dog Abby who had hip dysplasia. All dogs are welcome in my care. I have a strong arm (even if I don't look like it) and will always give the best doggie care I'm able to! I'm currently taking some time off, and I have very open availability. All requests need to be made 4-5 days in advance, I do not serve areas outside of Saratoga City Limits. I believe that the security and safety both of your home and pet come first. If you have special requests please make them known to me. I don't think anyone's home should be treated any differently than the animal that deserves treasuring and nurturing. Your dog will be treated with respect and kindness, their special needs heeded, and their boundaries observed & kept in mind.

FAQs for House Sitting - Clarksville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 535 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clarksville. 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 Clarksville 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 Clarksville 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 Clarksville 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.

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.
