About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important. I will treat your furry family member with the utmost care & diligence. I am responsible, attentive, & detail oriented and will provide quality services. Currently available during the day. Just about anyday with a little notice. Can set up regular scheduled walk times. Or if you are in a bind, and need, on spur of notice. I am willing to walk from your home, or to a near by park. Giving attention and time. I typically like to know if they have a specific diet, medications, preferences, etc.
“We will use Tristen as our dog sitter as long as he is dog sitting!! Our (high maintenance) dogs love him! We always appreciate it when he watches our dogs! It makes for a carefree vacation knowing he’s our sitter!”
“Paul has been fabulous, responsible, caring, and magnificently attuned to our dog. We greatly appreciated the series of photos and videos that he sent us daily. Highly recommended!”
“Adam was fantastic, I highly recommend him! He is extremely friendly and I can tell how much he cares for animals. He took great care of our pup and house, and definitely eased my anxiety over leaving for a week. He was very communicative and I loved the pics he sent for updates!”
“KIAH. Was awesome. She was so great with our pup. She sent me period pictures of what they were doing. It was great. I will definitely use her in the future. Totally recommend this girl!!!!”
“Treanne was fantastic with our 2 pitties - one of whom is not always trusting of people and can be a bit leery of new people in our home. Treanne had no hesitations and you could tell she was comfortable with all breeds of dogs. I felt very confident leaving our pups in her care. We love that we don't have to send them to a strange place when we travel, and she'll stay overnight with them on our home. She went above and beyond, even spending time with our mostly outdoor cat, and sending us updates throughout our trip. We will absolutely call her for future services. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: Whichever the experience. I have access to not only great care and attention to your animal.

“I booked louis as a last minute house sit for both my Great Dane and French bulldog. We did a meet and greet and his presence with my usually very timid Great Dane was so relieving!!! My Great Dane became INSTANT friends with Louis!!! His approach with building a relationship with them was so appreciated!! He kept the house incredibly clean and provided great updates with how they were doing! Will definitely be booking again for my work trips/vacations! Thank you Louis!!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now. I have three pups of our own and come from a family of pet lovers! Love spending time with pups and helping them keep comfortable in the comfort of their own home. I work full time in a flexible and hybrid environment. Whether the pups are with me or I am staying with the pups in the owner’s home, I make sure they are comfortable and getting all necessary activities. I will work with each pet family’s care guidelines to make sure they are getting the best and stress free care! For us, we have a fenced in yard which helps us with ongoing activities.
“Melinda was great, she did housesitting and watched and loved my two boys. She communicated any questions and concerns she had and also sent pictures that made me feel comfortable being that this was my first time using rover. I will definitely be using her again in the near future”
“Ashton was great with our two dogs! They warmed up to him almost immediately and he was very thoughtful in their care. He was very responsive and prudent with being on time and keeping them on a schedule. Also left the house exactly how he found it which was a huge relief being able to come home to a clean house! Would absolutely recommend!”
About: I have been blessed with taking care of my two senior dogs; my labrador, Bentley, and my puggle, Lilly. As well as my puppy, who is also a Labrador, Toby! I have also pet-sat and walked my sisters GSP from when he was just a tiny, little guy! He’s a lot bigger now, and still has the same puppy energy! Either way, I am ready to care for your furry family. :) I currently work full-time as a barista. On average, I am at the cafe 4 days a week. Unfortunately, I do not have a set-schedule; however I am off every Sunday! Through the years of taking care of my three dogs, I can confidently say that I can take care of your fur-babies in many cases, whether they need to be let out to potty, need a play-mate, walk, etc. Growing up and having two labs, a puggle, and taking care of my boyfriends 2 Great Danes, and my sisters German Short-haired Pointer, I have knowledge on both smaller and larger dogs!
About: Pets have always been in my life since a very young age. I have been the go to person when friends and family needed trusted care while they were away. I realize the special relationship we have with our pets. I guarantee that when they are left with me I will treat them with all the love and attention as if they were my own. I'm currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to offer my full attention and commitment to your pet. Their care and wellness are my main priority. When caring for your pet in your home my number one priority is to make sure they feel safe. I will provide plenty of love and make sure whatever special instructions you have are followed.

About: As an only child, I grew up with my dogs as my siblings and I have grown to adore them. I will provide playtime, walks, and unlimited cuddles for your best friend! My family and I currently have four dogs, Brooklyn, Whitney, Sammy, and Bourbon - They are all Labrador Retrievers and very well behaved. I have taken care of dogs of Rover parents, family, family friends, and neighbors for the past few years and it is such a fun experience! I am a firm believer that dogs are a blessing and they deserve the very best care! I am confident that I will help you give them that special care when you are not available. Pet care is an important and joyful part of my life, even with a full-time work schedule. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for your pet. I know that a loved pet is a happy pet, so I make it my priority to show your fur baby all of the love that I can while you are not home with them.

About: Hi! I’m Maggie, a lifelong animal lover and dog mom to two sweet pups. I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years, starting back in high school when I became the neighborhood go-to sitter. Since then, I’ve looked after dogs of all sizes and personalities, plus a handful of cats and other small pets along the way. I treat my own dogs the way most people treat their kids; with patience, structure, fun, and tons of love. And I bring that exact same energy to every pet I care for. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I always take time to learn what makes them feel safe, happy, and understood. As someone who often looks for sitters for my own dogs, I truly understand how important it is to find the right person; someone you trust, someone who communicates, and someone who treats your pets like family. My boyfriend and I take that responsibility seriously. While I’m the one offering pet-sitting services, he’s at home with our own doggos, making sure they’re happy, safe, and sticking to their routine. Because we know firsthand what good care looks like, we make it a priority to provide that same level of comfort, attention, and reliability to every pet we look after. Your pets deserve someone who “gets it,” and that’s exactly the kind of care we strive to provide. I currently work as a case manager, which means my weekly schedule is flexible and varies day-to-day. I have appointments at different times throughout the week, but I’m able to come and go as needed. With a little notice, I can schedule my work appointments around your availability and your pet’s routine. I’m used to balancing a dynamic schedule, so making sure your pet gets the consistent care, walks, and attention they need is always a priority. As a dog mom to two high-energy, love-filled pups, I know how important structure, attention, and affection are. At home, our days include frequent walks, plenty of yard time to burn off energy, and a consistent meal and treat routine. We use clear, consistent verbiage for commands and always reward good behavior; lots of praise, treats, and even more snuggles. I love keeping dogs mentally and physically stimulated, so car rides, errands, and controlled socialization are a regular part of our routine. I bring that same approach to caring for pets in a client’s home. I follow your instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine intact, and make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. Whether they need exercise, structure, gentle reassurance, or just someone to hang out with, I meet each pet where they are and give them the same level of care I give my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Craley
Caris was fantastic! She arrived on time and cared for our two large breed dogs very well. One of our dogs is a senior and needs extra assistance getting around/ up & down the steps and she went above & beyond to make sure he was comfortable. She communicated very clearly & regularly with messages & photos. She left our home very clean and followed all instructions that she was given. I would highly recommend her! 👏 👏 👏
Hailee accepted a last minute booking with my Great Dane and French bulldog. They loved her immediately at the meet and greet! ❤️ Hailee went above and beyond not only with providing constant communication but also with the house care during her stay! Would 100 percent rebook and I know Khloe and Squanch will be looking forward to their next visit with her! Thank you for taking such good care of them!!!
Most people have no interest in staying overnight for one cat but Hailee was more than willing and I am so grateful for that! My baby loved her. Usually when I go away my cat ends up having digestive issues from stress but my baby had none of them! I’m thinking because he loved her and she took good care of him 🥰🥰

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,239 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Craley. 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 Craley 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 Craley 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Craley 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
