“Suzanne was lovely! She was able to help us last minute and did a wonderful job! She stayed in touch the whole time and sent update pictures! She even helped with some dishes and laundry!”
“We had a great experience with Darrius. He helped us with pet sitting two weekends back-to-back and was incredibly reliable and flexible throughout both stays. He communicated with us regularly, sent photos and updates, followed all of our instructions, and was always punctual. Most importantly, we felt completely comfortable trusting him with our pets and our home, which means a lot to us. Darrius is dependable, communicative, and trustworthy, and we would absolutely use him again. Highly recommend!”
“Jasmin has watched our dogs before and she always does such a great job. One of our dogs is on a raw diet with probiotics galore and she does great with all the instructions. Such a lifesaver to have her stay in our house as our senior dog has never stayed anywhere else. We are blessed to have found her as our go-to gal! She gets our mail and keeps our plants alive which is just an added bonus! Thank you!”
“Monika house-sat for our Husky, Pitbull and our cat for 17 nights while we were overseas, and she was outstanding. Daily photo updates without us asking, consistent cleaning and feeding schedules, and all animals were calm and healthy when we got home — which says everything after two-plus weeks. Zero worries the entire trip, and for an international trip that peace of mind is worth more than the booking fee. We'll rebook her without hesitation.”
About: I have an exceptional talent in making each and every canine and feline feel happy and loved. They thrive under my care, and love individual attention and understanding. Pet care is second nature to me, and fits extremely well with my current lifestyle of working part time and living in a retirement community. Pets cared for in my home are well loved and get lots of attention. I walk dogs regularly, and am exceptional at playing with and caring for them. I am in the backyard with them whenever they go outside.
“Allison was amazing with our girls Milli and Maxi. She was responsive with all her replies, our special requests and we felt at ease with Allison taling care of our girls at home. The babies always had big smiles and were always very relaxed. Thanks for all the updates and a great job all around. The girls look forward to her next visit.”

I currently have plenty free time for your fur babies while I’m mostly at home even during holidays and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! When a pet is in my care they will have play time , plenty walks and exercise ,plenty treats and most of all plenty love. I speak with each pet parent to know what their pet likes and dislikes and always make sure I’m a great fit for your pet!!
“Ziaya was amazing! She took excellent care of my two dogs and made us feel completely at ease leaving her in our home. Highly recommend her services! She took them on multiple walks and gave us updates along the way. She’s the best!”
“We could not be more pleased with Geneva! She did a great job for us and Ted and we intend to use her again. She was very professional, courteous, communicative, and timely. We were impressed!”
“Jenny is amazing with are pups. She takes great care of them and treats them as her own. She is our go to! We love the way she loves our dogs and we always feel safe whenever we have to travel because we know she will take care of them😊”
“Jess provided a lot of pics and videos of our cat while she stayed with him. She is an excellent communicator. She had cats of her own so was very familiar with how to handle and sit for a cat. I would definitely recommend her as a rover sitter. Will hire her again!”
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have grown up with dogs as well so I understand that every pup has their own personality, energy level, and routine. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand the importance of following your dog’s routine, respecting any special instructions, and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them the patience, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m very flexible and can work around my part time job we can communicate what will work for the both of us! Feel free to send me a message! Weekends I’m always free for sure ! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), favorite activities, and any special instructions. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep fresh water available, and provide plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. I’ll also keep your home clean and tidy, treat it with respect, and send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Bria took care of my 3 dogs at my house for the weekend. They all loved her and had a great time while we were away. Most importantly, they were safe and we knew they were in good hands.”
“Gabby watched our girls for a week while we were out of town. She made them feel comfortable and loved until we came back home. Thank you so much for giving such amazing updates and caring for our girls🥰 We would happily book her again!”
About: What sets me apart? Don't know really.. but I love to sing to your fur babies. As for senior dogs, I can administer any medications they are on. I enjoy massaging pets to sleep! Currently, I work part-time from home and can care for your pets daily, nightly or weekly if necessary with a couple of days of notice. I have a fenced yard and a large crate if your fur baby is crate-trained. Whether in my home or yours, your pet will have my undivided attention.
“Jennifer was amazing with our two boys!!! She came and had a meet and greet the day before and answered any and all questions we had…our boys were well taken care of while we were gone!!!! She sent us daily updates with pictures of them loving their time with their new friend. We will definitely use her again if the opportunity arises!!!!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals, especially dogs! I grew up always having a dog by my side. My first dog was a Boxer, and later my family rescued a Terrier mix and then rescued a German Shepherd. Having dogs throughout my entire life has taught me how to care for different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I’ve also helped take care of my neighbors’ pets whenever they were away, making sure they were fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of attention and love. I genuinely treat animals like they’re family (because they are!!). I’m the type of person who will stop on the side of the road if I see an animal that looks lost or needs help! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so my goal is to make sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. As a nurse, I work three shifts a week, which gives me plenty of days off to spend at home! On my days off, I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pet lots of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and of course plenty of cuddles. I only accept bookings that work around my nursing schedule, so I can make sure every pet staying with me gets the time, love, and care they deserve. Your fur baby will never feel like just another thing on my to do list, they’ll be part of my day! I live in a first floor apartment, which makes potty breaks and walks super easy and convenient! I make sure pets are always supervised and comfortable in my home, and I’m happy to follow whatever routine they’re used to, whether that means specific feeding times, frequent potty breaks, daily walks, medications, or a favorite bedtime routine. I know being in a new environment can be a little scary for some pets, so I do my best to make my apartment feel like their home away from home. I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and space to relax depending on their personality. I’m also happy to send lots of pictures and updates because I know how reassuring it is to see that your fur baby is safe, happy, and being loved while you’re away!
“Jahci did an amazing job with our two girls. One of them is super shy and timid, but warmed up to Jahci right away. She is timely and the communication was great. She took amazing care of our place as well (pretty sure she left the house cleaner than we did!) We have already booked her for a second time and our girls are looking forward to seeing her again!”
“Our pets are part of our family. Honestly, in our home, they’re more like our children, so entrusting someone new to care for them is always nerve-wracking. Between supplements mixed into meals, automatic Surefeed feeders, and a Litter-Robot setup, there’s a bit of a learning curve—but Demang and Shirley handled everything flawlessly, as if they’d known our cats forever. From the moment they met, it was clear that Demang and Shirley have a special gift with animals—a calm, intuitive presence that puts even the most anxious pet at ease. Our shy, skittish cat (who normally takes days to trust anyone) warmed up to them almost instantly. And our other cat, who loves attention, couldn’t get enough of their affection and playtime. When we returned home, the funniest thing happened. Our cats barely lifted their heads to greet us once they realized it wasn’t Demang and Shirley walking through the door! That says everything about how loved, secure, and happy they felt while we were away. It’s rare to find people who care for your pets with the same genuine love, attentiveness, and joy that you do, but that’s exactly who Demang and Shirley are. They’re true animal whisperers, and I feel incredibly grateful to have found them. I plan to use them for all our future cat care needs!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crabb
My first time using Rover and Suzanne! I have two Pugs, both almost 5, who are are like my children since mine are grown and flown. I don’t leave them very much at all. Suzanne put my mind at ease. I can tell when one of my pugs doesn’t trust someone more than I can from the other. They were both very happy and relaxed, which made me happy & relaxed. I wanted her to make herself at home, I hope she did. She left my home exactly as it was so it was hard to tell! Will definitely contact Suzanne again.
Monika was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond in caring for our kids and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which we truly appreciated. Communication was excellent. Anytime I reached out, she responded quickly and thoroughly. She was also incredibly accommodating to our needs and took the time to ask thoughtful questions whenever she needed clarification. It was clear that she genuinely cared and wanted to provide the best possible care. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again!
Starla was absolutely wonderful with my pets! She took such loving care of them, was punctual and incredibly communicative, and kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout my trip. I had complete peace of mind knowing my babies were in such good hands. Thank you, Starla, for taking such great care of them! We are so grateful and highly recommend her!
I had such a great experience with Emma. She was extremely flexible and willing to work with me and my dog’s needs. Nothing ever felt like a problem or inconvenience, which made the whole experience so much easier and gave me a lot of peace of mind. Her previous experience in the fields she’s worked in also made me feel very comfortable and confident leaving my dog in her care. She was accommodating, easy to communicate with, and overall really great took great care of my pup. I would definitely trust her with my dog again!
Katy went above and beyond with our senior Frenchie girl, Maggie. Maggie began having seizures in February and is on meds, but there's still a risk of seizure and she needs regular medications plus guidance/assistance because the meds make her loopy. Katy brought Maggie to work with her so that she could be observed carefully and when Maggie did have a seizure she suggested we have Maggie stay at her own home and be watched by her partner so that she wasn't stressed out by the drive each day. We felt so secure with Katy caring for Maggie and are already trying to book her again!
Amy was great! She took phenomenal care of our two dogs. Followed our instructions to the letter. She sent daily pictures and clips of the dogs playing and on walks. She even came over for 30 minutes a day early to meet the boys so they wouldn't view her as a stranger. She even ran our robot vacuum daily so we didn't return to a hairy mess. Will definitely use her again next time we go out of town. Thank you, Amy.
This was my first experience with Rover, and I’m truly so impressed. My dog unexpectedly had surgery, and I needed to hire someone to watch him when I attended a wedding to ensure he didn’t scratch/lick his wounds as he is a little MacGyver and manages to get out of every cone known to man. Insert Britteny saving the day! She was willing to help with a last minute request, and she was SO attentive to Benny. She sent me so many pictures which eased my anxiety so much, and gave Benny his pain and antibiotic medication regimen without any hiccups. She graciously accepted every request I had, and went above and beyond. The proof was really the fact that in many of the pictures, Benny is curled up cuddling Britteny. I would absolutely recommend Britteny for any of your dog walking/watching needs! Both Benny and I can’t wait to ask for her help again soon.

The average cost of House Sitting in Crabb is $38 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $56 per night.

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 Crabb 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 Crabb 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 Crabb 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crabb. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
