“Michelle was awesome! She sent up pictures and updates multiple times and took great care of our 15 year old Aussiedoodle. She came to our home and everything was great when we came back. I will definitely book with Michelle again.”

“We are so grateful to Alyssa for taking such good care of Sophie. We left her for the 1st time in 6 years, and Alyssa took wonderful care of her and kept us at ease every day with updates and pictures. Sophie isn't easy, and she is like our child, so trust me when I say that you can trust Alyssa with your fur baby. We will not hesitate to call Alyssa when we go anywhere again, and now we have the peace of mind to make future plans!”

“We have never used a house/pet sitting service before. We had a great experience with Jeremiah. He provided daily updates (including a photo) on our dog. Toby was sick with kennel cough prior to our departure on vacation. We were not able to board him. Jeremiah was able to help us on very short notice and did a fantastic job! The house was well cared for while we were away. We highly-recommend Jeremiah if you're looking for a pet sitter.”

“I have used this app throughout the years and Nicholas is by far THE BEST! He is reliable, on time, communicates very well and leaves no trace. As a matter of fact, he left our place looking better than it was when we went away. Most importantly, our dog and cat were calm and happy - they were definitely in good hands. We recommend Nicholas and hope he is available for our family again in the future.”

“Sarah was awesome. I would highly recommend her services. She took great care of our pets and house. The whole experience couldn't have been more pleasant. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, look no further!”


“Absolutely wonderful! My husband and I felt very comfortable with Rachel and the dogs liked her from the start! Rachel kept us updated the entire time we were gone and even went the extra mile to water my plants since I was gone for so long! She even sent photos to us as she spent time with the dogs. Again, absolutely wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone with a dog, and who is picky about who they have watch their dog, as I was. Rachel was great. I will be using her again, definitely!”

About: I have many years of experience with household animals, family/friends pets, and various types! I am fluid with service animals as well as with animals requiring special care needs! I am currently open to job opportunities and have a pretty flexible schedule for the foreseeable future. I currently have a 14 year old maltese boy Unless specified otherwise, feedings are routine and scheduled based. Any medicines that need to be administered are taken care of. I have a big backyard, unfenced but have space to let pets out and roam on a long leash.

“Super communicative and made our pets feel comfortable. It seems they really loved her and it gave me such peace of mind to know they were well cared for. Would hire again.”

“Casey recently spent three nights house sitting and caring for our older cat. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy and content kitty. Casey went above and beyond, making sure all dishes were washed and put away, linens cleaned, and even took our garbage and recycling bins to the curb for us. She's an excellent communicator, sending us daily pictures and updates about Maggy, which put our minds at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation even more, knowing Maggy was being so well cared for. We look forward to having Casey stay again in the future!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve worked with playful puppies, independent cats, and senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether that means long walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles—and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel like they’re with a friend, not just a sitter. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I care for my own cat every day, from feeding and cleaning the litter box to playtime and making sure she feels loved and comfortable. Having my own pet has made me attentive to routines, behavior changes, and the small details that help animals feel safe and cared for. I also love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or giving them the attention and exercise they need. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean up after them, and make sure they get the playtime, walks, or quiet companionship they need. I believe pets feel most secure in their own home because it’s their safe space, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. Being able to care for them in that environment helps build trust and creates a stronger, more positive relationship, making the experience less stressful for both the pet and the owner.
“Mary was awesome! I'm so glad to have someone local who is trustworthy, and does a great job with our little snuggly girl when we are away. With upcoming work trips, and family visits we will definitely rebook with Mary. She really went above and beyond. I have Celiac Disease, and she was so careful and considerate. I told her that she could bring wheat into the house, but to be careful, and she let us know that she did bring in food, but that they considered my allergy when shopping and didn't bring in any groceries that I was allergic to. No sitter has ever been that diligent and considerate. She followed all instructions, and even took care of a few unconventional things that happened when we were away. Five stars!!”

About: I grew up with animals, such as dogs, rabbits, and birds. I have a love for all pets, especially dogs. Different breeds and sizes. I did two years of a dog training club in 4-H and used the information with my dog. I currently have a full time job. I would be able to care for your pets in the evenings after 6:00 pm, as well as overnight if needed. I am available most weekends. I will treat your home with respect and integrity. Please leave a note with all expectations and I will follow them to the best of my ability.
“Took care of our two dogs (young hound and elderly rat terrier) for several days while my family and I were out of town. Kept constant updates which is important as our elderly dog does need sone extra care and attention. On top of caring for our dogs Gina took care of our weekly trash/recycling and daily mail. Sydney (her dog) also got along well with our younger dog and kept each other company by playing all day. I would definitely ask her to watch our dogs again.”

“Jamie was wonderful. I would say the communication on my part was lacking, I’m a first time Rover user and wasn’t sure how it all worked. Jamie made me feel very comfortable with it all from the moment I met her. My elderly beagle is on meds for an ear infection. He is pretty good at spitting out pills and Jamie handled it with ease. She was professional, timely, and sent me picture updates while we were gone. The cherry on top was when she asked for me to let her know we made it home safely so that our dogs wouldn’t be left Alone if something happened on the way home. Extremely thoughtful and shows that she cares about the animals she is around. I will absolutely be using Jamie to watch our pets in the future!”

“Destiny did a wonderful job taking care of the two dogs overnight. It gave us a great weekend of seeing family and relaxing, knowing the dogs were well taken care of. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her.”


About: I have had my beagle for 6 years, she was my first dog. I also have three other dogs and have experience grooming in a professional setting so I learned a whole lot about dog body language Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make time each day for feeding, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. I’m very consistent with routines and make sure pets are checked on regularly throughout the day. I also prioritize communication with owners by sending updates and photos so they know their pet is doing well. Since I enjoy spending time with animals, caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each day and I always make sure they receive dependable, attentive care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to administer medications if needed and always keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and safe. If pets are in my home, they will have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with lots of supervision. I make sure they have regular potty breaks, playtime, and a calm place to rest. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel secure and cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.
About: I've had pets since age 7. Everything from reptiles, fish, cats, and dogs (of all sizes). Grew up with multiple cats and currently have multiple dogs and cat. I have pet sat for family and friends since before I could drive. I love getting to know new furry friends and often walk dogs at the humane society so they get proper socialization, very important. Have had to administer pet CPR twice in my life. Both times were due to dogs choking on an object/food. Positive outcomes from both incidents. Safe and happy is always top priority. I work full time but still have plenty of time and energy to care for not only my own pets but others as well. I know what I can handle and will never take on too much. When in your home I like to know your routine with your pet(s) to keep them on it as close as possible to minimize stress on them which is why I prefer to stay at a client's home with their animal, if possible. Your pet will never be unsupervised outside, even with a fenced in area I will be out there with them. Your pet will be spoiled with love and pets, if they permit it.
About: I’ve taken care of of dogs and cats since I could remember. Neighbors, parents friends, or even my friends would ask me to help watch or spend time with their loved animals, I always found meeting new dogs and cats exciting and getting to know their personalities and grow with them quite rewarding, I have 2 dogs of my own and a cat which I am very committed to taking care of and ensuring they live long, happy, and healthy lives. I will always treat any animal as it’s my own, with love, care, and affection. I currently am working 7-3 Wednesday-Sunday and have time after that to take care of any loving pets, as well as my own as I spend time with them and fit their needs, I am dedicated to being able to come right after work, or any event in order to ensure your pet is well taken care of I treat any pet as their are my own. I have trained my dogs to be able to go outside in a unfenced backyard and remain on our property, by rewarding self control, and urges to run off they are skilled well in being able to be outside on their own and when to alert me to be let outside to use the bathroom. Inside the home there are many toys and beds for them to live a comfy and playful life inside with a safe environment for my pets.

Lexi is amazing!! She took excellent care of our two dogs while we were away for an entire week. Lexi is kind and considerate and left our house pristine and well cared for. She went above and beyond with not only dog care, but taking care of our home. She sent us daily updates and cute pictures of our dogs. We will definitely have her stay again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Crumstown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 308 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Crumstown. 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 Crumstown 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 Crumstown 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 Crumstown 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.
