About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, with a veterinarian in my family and dogs always being a big part of my home. I’ve had experience caring for dogs through all phases of life, from playful puppies to senior pups, and I truly understand the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I have a soft spot for animals and genuinely love spending time with my four-legged friends! Whether it’s going for walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m currently in a clinical rotation for my doctorate degree. I work 8-5 with availability to check-in and walk your dogs before and after work with possible times during my lunch hours depending on location! I will always prioritize leash safety for both your dog and nearby pets. Long walks, playtime, and plenty of attention will help keep your pup happy, active, and mentally stimulated! I’ll also make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to their normal schedule and instructions, and receive any approved treats along the way.
About: I’m really good with both puppies and older pets because I know they need extra attention and patience. I’m also great at keeping pets calm and happy while you’re away, so you can trust me to give them all the love and care they deserve! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 3:30! When I care for pets at my place, I make sure they have plenty of playtime, comfy spots, and regular meals. If I’m at their home, I stick to their usual routine so they feel safe and relaxed. Either way, I’m always there to give them lots of attention and love!
“Hannah was very polite and caring with Oliver. She was very flexible as my schedule had changed from the original booking. So I appreciate that. She shared photos of Oliver and left my home is tact from her visit. Trustworthy and friendly!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life growing up with dogs, cats, and even small animals gave me a strong foundation in compassionate and attentive pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through while others travel, where I stayed in people’s homes and looked after their animals like they were my own. I’ve also spent time fostering animals, helping them adjust to new environments and providing them with love and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just companionship, I’m experienced and comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments from playful puppies to shy rescues Pets are naturally part of my daily life! I have two cats of my own and have fostered animals in the past, so caring for pets is already built into my routine. Whether it's feeding, cleaning, playing, or giving love and attention, I make time each day to ensure animals feel safe and happy. I'm home often, which allows me to give pets the consistent care and companionship they deserve throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I offer a calm, welcoming environment with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely explore or relax. We also have a peaceful pond area that many pets enjoy watching. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to keep their routine consistent, give them comfort, and respect their space like it’s my own.
“Lyla is great with our pups. She was willing to come meet us and our pups before her stay. She kept in contact with us while we were gone. She even took the time to send pictures of the pups activities!! We would definitely have her again!”

We’ve had animals in my own family for as long as i can remember we currently have a dog and chickens and maybe cows soon! I have a personal love for animals! If for some reason my dog Oliver doesn’t get along with your pet I live in a separated part of the house so it will be very easy for me to keep them out of contact. I’m currently working full time but i’m off most saturdays and mondays, and then just whenever else they do not schedule me! I’m very communicative and will work with you as best I can! I care for my own pets with love and care making sure they always have what they need and definitely things they want too lol! In others homes I would show them the same love as my own pets and follow whatever instructions left to a T.
About: I've taken care of different breeds & size dogs for 6 years now. I love animals & want to help take care of them. I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs, & ages in between. I work full time at my job. Weekends are best for me, but I can stay somewhere during the week, as long as it's not too far from my work. I also can go during my lunch to let dogs out to potty &/or check on them, as long as it's not too far from my work. I have a semi fenced in back yard. I have one dog outside & he has come inside sometimes, but hes not completelyhouse trained & I have one cat inside. They are both around 3 years old.
About: I give every dog the same care and attention as if they were my own. I'm experienced with all breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I'm patient, observant, and great at following routines. I'm especially comfortable with puppies and senior dogs. I also provide regular photo and text updates so pet parents feel at ease while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, especially on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays, when I have the flexibility to dedicate quality time to walks, play, feeding, and companionship. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection—not just quick check-ins. Your dog will never feel rushed or overlooked. I currently have a Goldendoodle, so I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and a calm environment. In my home, dogs are treated like family—safe, supervised, and given plenty of love, playtime, and structured walks. I maintain a clean space and follow each dog’s individual routine closely. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. Also, my apartment has a dog park.
“What a kind, respectful sitter! Jennifer was communicative and punctual, sent regular updates and I felt absolute peace of mind leaving my two fur babies with her. My home was in perfect order when I got back from my trip, and I felt so happy knowing that my dog & cat didn’t have to leave the comfort of their surroundings while I was gone. I look forward to hiring Jennifer again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent guardian for their furry loved ones :)”
About: I’m excited to apply what I’ve learned about my pets to others. Every pet has their own personality I want to get to know them. Pet car fits perfectly into my schedule as I complete college online and am home majority of the day they always have my undivided attention. I have a semi fenced yard but so much for them to run in the back. I have a fur baby of my own who loves to play, he’s gentle and sweet. He treats other dogs with respect and knows to set a boundary if they want to play or not.
“This is the first time I've used Rover for pet sitting. Kristina was available for the week I needed so I did a meet and greet first and my dogs fell in love with her. She stayed and cared for my babies as if I was still here and sent pictures everyday so I could see their happy faces. Kristina is easy to communicate with and took good care of the dogs and my house. I would highly recommend her. I definitely will call on Kristina again.”
“Courtney was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Bear and Piper! From the moment we met her, we knew they were in loving, capable hands. She was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive to both of their very different personalities, making them feel safe, comfortable, and so loved while we were away. I have pretty bad anxiety when it comes to leaving my dogs, and Courtney made the entire experience so much easier. She sent frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually relax knowing they were happy and well cared for. She followed all of our instructions, treated Bear and Piper like they were her own, and truly went above and beyond. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and it shows in the way she cares for them. Bear and Piper are definitely going to miss her, and we couldn’t recommend Courtney more highly. We will absolutely be booking her again and again. Thank you, Courtney, for taking such incredible care of our babies—we’re so grateful for you! - Bear, Piper, Kyle, Allie and Evelyn”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities — from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime, to senior pets who deserve extra patience and gentle care. I make it a priority to get to know each animal’s unique routine and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart I treat every pet as if they were my own family. Beyond basic walks and feeding, I focus on keeping pets happy, stimulated, and calm — whether that’s through long walks, games of fetch, or simply giving them the quiet affection they crave. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always communicative, so you’ll have peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for like a priority. I currently work part time so I will have plenty of time to give attention to the animals!! I can do feedings and walks morning and night no issues there. I have a fenced in yard, very accessible for letting animals out to go potty and my household only consists of me and my partner so there won’t be many people coming in and out of the home so there’s more consistency for the animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cowarts on Rover is $36.49 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 67 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cowarts. 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 Cowarts 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 Cowarts 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 Cowarts 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
