“Betty was wonderful! Bo enjoyed taking long walks with her, we got updates and pictures each day and our pets were happy when we returned. Our house was clean and well cared for, and she even washed our sheets and towels. Betty handled everything we asked of her without complaint. We will use her again! Highly recommend.”
“Hayley did a great job with our two Bulldogs. They can definitely be high-maintenance, but she handled them very well. Overall, it was a great experience, and we were very happy with her care.”
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals, from goats to chickens to house cats. I own a dog, who’s a year and a half old now, but I trained him from the time he was 8 weeks old. I also had a senior dog in my teens that I took care of. I have never met a critter I don’t love!! I’m currently a stay at home mom to my young daughter so I have plenty of time to pour all the love into your pup or kitty (or other!). My schedule is flexible to suit your needs and your fur baby’s preferences. I have a happy, friendly mid sized heeler pup who just loves other dogs and cats. I am happy to crate him if you are more comfortable with our critters not interacting while in my home, and of course, he will remain at my house while I care for your animals in your own home.
About: Been around dogs since I was little and offically took care of them when I was 8. Animals all around have been welcomed into my life whether they have four legs or not. Currently I am not working so it gives me more time to take care and play with your furry friends! I am available almost all hours of the day and can be contacted at anytime if in need of anything! I can easily bathe, clean, feed, brush, refill water for cats along with taking the time to play with them to ensure their daily enrichment for the day. For dogs I can easily help by simply brush, feeding, playing, being put into their crates, or even walking when needed to get their exercise and let them use the bathroom.
“Jessica was great! She made sure everything went smoothly and my dog seemed to have a good time while I was away. Thankful for her quick response at the last minute to come stay at the house with my puppy.”
“Hailey is one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had! She kept us updated both day and night on how our babies were doing while we were out of the country. I’ve never felt more peaceful on a trip, and that was all due to Hailey being the one staying with our pets. She is very thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond in caring for your animals. I would not hesitate to book her again!”
“An amazing sitter. I would recommend her to pet sit more. For a beginner, she's sweet and understanding. And ask me questions about my dog and cat. Takes good pictures of my pets.”
About: Veterinary assistant and lifelong dog enthusiast offering premier sitting services. Skilled in dedicating to your pet's happiness. Trust in my expertise as I pursue my dream of becoming a veterinarian! My main job schedule is typically 7:15 AM–6:00 PM, but I do get a 1-hour lunch break and occasionally half-days, which I can sometimes work around. I plan pet visits around my shifts and make sure they’re consistent and reliable. For longer trips or multiple daily check-ins, I’m usually able to coordinate timing in advance so your pet’s routine stays on track. I’m also flexible where possible and do my best to accommodate clients who travel or have changing schedules I care for pets by following their routine closely—feeding, water, cleaning, and bathroom breaks when needed. I check in on their overall behavior and comfort, and I pay attention to any changes in health or stress, such as skin issues, appetite changes, or unusual behavior. My goal is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and consistent with their normal routine while owners are away
“Chelsea was a wonderful house sitter. She took excellent care of Oreo and my home. She sent regular updates and was willing to help with weekly trash pickup when I forgot to put my cans out before leaving. I will absolutely be checking with Chelsea first next time I need a sitter for my sweet senior girl!”
“Rachel took great care of our two high-energy dogs and left our house looking the same as we left it. She checked in daily, sent pics, and made sure she understood our dogs’ needs. Definitely would recommend and will book again!”
“Sierra was amazing at watching my senior dog. She kept me posted on his activities, and feeding along with photos. She gave me peace of knowing he was well taken care of while we were away! I would highly recommended Sierra and will absolutely be using her services again!”

About: Caring for dogs has been a big part of my life for the past 20 years. This year I lost both of my fur babies, one due to cancer and the other due to old age and mobility issues. My love and compassion for animals will continue on and hopefully allow me to help others with their petcare needs. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs at every stage of life—from playful puppies who need patience, structure, and lots of attention to senior dogs who need extra comfort, care, and understanding. 🐶 Caring for puppies and helping them adjust to routines and new environments 🦴 Providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs 🐕 Handling both small and large breeds 🏡 Maintaining feeding, walking, potty, and medication routines as instructed ❤️ Providing plenty of companionship, affection, playtime, and one-on-one attention 👀 Closely monitoring pets for changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or overall well-being 🐾 Following each pet parent's instructions and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible 😊 Understanding that some dogs are energetic and playful while others are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience 🐾 My Work Schedule and Availability I work a full-time job, with the flexibility to work from home two out of my five workdays. I’m available for pet care during evenings and weekends, and I can often adapt to other schedules when needed with advance notice. I understand that every pet and pet parent has different scheduling needs, so I do my best to be flexible and dependable. Whether you need evening visits, weekend care, or a customized schedule arranged ahead of time, I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet. 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment I provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Before beginning care, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, behavior, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I follow your directions carefully and maintain familiar routines whenever possible to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I supervise pets closely, use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, check doors and gates before leaving, and keep potentially harmful items out of reach. I also pay attention to weather conditions, your pet’s energy level, and any signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. If I notice anything unusual, I will contact you promptly and follow your preferred emergency instructions. I understand that welcoming a pet sitter into your home requires trust. I treat every home with care and respect, follow household guidelines, and keep your pet’s environment clean and comfortable. I provide regular updates, including messages and photos when requested, so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you are away.

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 Crims Crossroads 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 Crims Crossroads 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 Crims Crossroads 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.

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.

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.
