“5 Stars for Nelson! Nelson is hands down the best pet sitter out there! I recently had the absolute pleasure of trusting Nelson to care for my pets while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very start, he showed deep concern and thoughtful attention—not just to tasks, but to the emotional and physical well-being of my pets. He kept me consistently updated with sweet photos and messages, took initiative by changing the cat litter without being asked, and played wholeheartedly with the dogs. He even took Missy on multiple walks—completely unprompted—simply because he cared. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. What really blew me away is how Missy, who doesn’t warm up easily to people (especially men), loved Nelson. That’s practically a miracle in itself—and speaks volumes about his gentle energy, patience, and kindness. Nelson gave me genuine peace of mind. His heart, intuition, and respect for my pets’ personalities make him incomparable. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond and truly gets animals, Nelson is the one. Missy already misses him—and honestly, so do I!”


About: Hi! I’m a professional dog trainer with 6 years of hands-on animal experience. I’ve worked with dogs of different breeds, ages, and personalities, and I always focus on making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals have always been my passion, and I treat every pet like part of my own family. Whether I’m walking, training, or spending time with your dog, I bring patience, responsibility, and lots of love to every visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my work schedule around my Rover bookings so I have dedicated time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I always make sure pets are let out, walked, and fed on a consistent schedule, and I don’t accept more bookings than I can safely handle. When I’m at work or school, I plan check‑ins before and after, and I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends to give your pet plenty of attention. Your pet’s needs come first, and I build my day around keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and your pet’s safety is my top priority. As a dog trainer with 6 years of animal experience, I’m confident handling different breeds, energy levels, and behaviors, and I always use secure leashes, harnesses, and crates when needed. In my home, your dog will be in a clean, pet‑friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I also have a very friendly golden retriever who loves company and can be a great, gentle playmate for social dogs. I supervise pets at all times, introduce them slowly, and never put them in situations that feel unsafe or overwhelming. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet’s routine, and I’ll send updates and photos so you always know how your dog or cat is doing.
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.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and can't imagine a home without one. I currently share mine with a Doberman and a German Shepherd/Husky mix, I've had both since they were puppies and raised them through every stage, so I'm comfortable with dogs of any size, energy level, or temperament, from calm lap dogs to high-energy pups. I've also taken care of friends' dogs over the years, so I'm used to adapting to different personalities and routines. I'm patient, active, and reliable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that's a gentle stroll or a long walk to burn off energy. No job is too big or too small. I love keeping owners involved so you can expect photo and video updates, quick responses, and a daily recap during walks or stays, along with the flexibility to chat before booking. My schedule is open, so I'm also available for last-minute bookings. I know how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pet like they are part of my own family. I don't just see this as another booking on my calendar, I see your pets as family members that deserve patience, attention and care. *Schedule* My weekly schedule is pretty flexible and open, which means I get to be present, whether that's a midday walk, playtime, or just keeping your pet company so they're not alone all day. I am able to adjust my routine to meet each pets specific needs. I love that I get to make dogs feel cared for, not just checked in on. *Safety* You can rest assured your pet will be treated just like my own. I believe in open, transparent communication and will keep you updated regularly on how they're doing while you're away. I'm attentive and careful, and I'll follow your pet's care exactly the way you want it, whether that means medications, exercise, or plenty of cuddle time. I'm committed to keeping their routine consistent, from feeding times to daily walks to playtime, because I know familiarity helps pets feel comfortable and secure. Safety is always my top priority, and my goal is simple: to keep your pet happy, healthy, and loved while you're away. Here is what I am offering (flexible on timing) 1. 30-minute dog walks: Perfect for burning off energy, getting some fresh air, and breaking up their day when you're busy or away. Great for a quick potty break, or an outdoor stretch. 2. Overnight dog sitting: I stay overnight with your fur baby so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care, meals, playtime, and cuddles. 3. Meet-and-greet before booking: I'm always happy to meet you and your dog beforehand (in person or over video call) so you can see how we get along, ask any questions, and feel completely comfortable before your first booking.

“My dogs' mom couldn't care for the dogs at the last second before my trip. Karen not only agreed to do it, but she went over and above by staying at the house with my pups. They were so excited to see Karen and had a lot of fun. It was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend Karen for your puppy needs!”


“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!”

“We can't say enough good things about Cortney! Leaving our 2 Dog's with someone else is always stressful, but Cortney immediately put our mind at ease. She sent regular updates with photos & videos, followed all feeding instructions & made sure they got plenty of exercise & affection. When we got home, Bailey & Lily was happy, relaxed, & clearly treated like family. It’s so reassuring to find someone trustworthy, reliable, & genuinely passionate about animals. We will definitely be booking Cortney again!”

“Geneva looked after my cat Crossaint for a full three weeks, staying with her at my home. Never once during the three weeks did I feel like I needed to check in with Geneva or worry about Croissiant! Geneva is FANTASTIC! Super communicative, very reliable and extremely considerate of your needs. Book Geneva without any hesitation - she is AMAZING!”

“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!”

“Paul is good. He was house sitting my two fur babies while I was away. Paul works from 7AM to 1PM and comes back to the house after that which I don’t mind since my fur babies can hold for 4/5 hours. He took good care of them both.”

About: Have taken care of many different types of pets from chickens to mice to cats dogs and miniature donkeys. I have owned many different dog breeds small medium and large (yorkies, Weimaraner's, Shepherd's and more. Daily walks morning and evening as it is to hot during the afternoons and we don't want to burn little pads. big fenced yard with frisbees and balls and kiddie pool i treat all pets as they were my own. pets need love and affection with a clean safe and happy environment to thrive as well as many yummy treats and fun toys so they do not get bored!

About: I've taken care of animals since i was a child. From dogs to cats I've gained experience working, playing with and taking care of pet animals. Majority of my experience is with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Currently I am in the process of getting a full time job, so I'll be able to take care of your pups all day on my days off and before and after I work! I prefer to care for pets in their home where they are comfortable, in the exact way the client does when they take care of their pets. If the client has a set routine, then I'll follow it, otherwise I care for the pets by making sure they potty, eat food, playtime/go for a walk and clean any messes they may make.
“Jenny was amazing she gave me multiple updates everyday and sent me lots of pictures! My pup was very well cared for and loved having Jenny watch her. Highly recommended Jenny and will be using her again in the future!”


About: I raised my own dog and cared for her until she was 13 years old, which gave me invaluable, hands-on experience through every stage of a dog's life. Because of our long journey together, I am especially attuned to the gentle, patient care that senior dogs require, understanding their unique needs and comfort levels. I am excited to bring that same dedication, love, and attentive care to your furry family members, whether they are energetic puppies or relaxed seniors. My daily routine is highly structured and reliable, allowing me to easily incorporate dedicated time for pet care. I am an early riser who is committed to a daily fitness routine, making me a great fit for energetic morning walks or active play sessions. Whether it's sticking to a strict feeding schedule or ensuring your pet gets their daily exercise, my organized lifestyle means your pets will always receive consistent, on-time care. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a trail in my neighborhood great for your fur baby! Having raised my own dog through her senior years to age 13, I am deeply familiar with pet-proofing spaces, monitoring for hazards, and handling pets with gentle care. I love dogs and have grown up with dogs all my life! Our neighborhood has great paths for walks. Please bring their food, treats and a food bowl. Also, a leash, and a harness if needed, for walks. You are welcome to bring a dog bed, blanket, or anything that would help them feel comfortable.
“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!!!!”

“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.”

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!

Suzanne went above and beyond with our two dogs! We have a young puppy who still has a lot of difficulty sleeping and Suzanne was so incredibly patient with him and went out of her way to make sure he was well taken care of during our time away. She was very communicative and gave us daily updates on how both dogs were doing and sent lots of photos. I would not hesitate to recommend her if you are looking for a sitter. We will definitely be using her again in the future if she is available.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Crabb on Rover is $38.85 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 3,066 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Crabb. 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 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 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 Crabb. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
