“Abigail was a wonderful sitter! She was an excellent communicator, checked in whenever she was unsure about something, and kept me updated throughout the entire booking, which I really appreciated! Walking my dogs wasn’t something I expected her to do—I didn’t want to add anything extra to her plate—but she went above and beyond and took them on walks anyway! She was also incredibly clean and thoughtful, even washing the towels & taking out the trash before she left. I am so thankful Abigail was the one staying with my pups while I was gone. She truly went above and beyond, and I would absolutely love to have her stay with them again in the future. She’s awesome! 🐾❤️”
“Sara was absolutely amazing! She kept me updated on how Luna was doing through my whole trip, took great care of my Luna, and the house. 10/10 would recommend!”

About: Get thanksgiving covered with me! :) My name is Kitty, I’ve always loved animals growing up. I worked as a kennel attendant at a vet clinic and I’ve taken care of loved one’s pets any time they need it. I regularly volunteer at the Humane Society of Pulaski County and taken the “working with dogs” class. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, and fish. I have experience with medications, baths, and even subcutaneous fluids. I love to take care of animals and I plan to apply to vet school. Your pets are in happy hands with me! I work a flexible 9-5 so I will be able to see animals first thing in the morning and then for several hours in the evening. If necessary, I can also stop by on my lunch break. Weekends are completely open. I take safety very seriously. Dogs will be supervised when outside and always leashed when on walks. I understand the short limits for young puppies. I ensure litter box cleanliness when caring for cats to keep the air quality safe. I know needle safety if subcutaneous injections are necessary.

I know every pet has unique needs, and I take pride in providing patient, reliable, and loving care. As a medical student, you can count on me to be attentive, communicative, and trustworthy while your pets are in my care.

About: I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for friends and friends-of-friends around the area, with most of my clients finding me through word of mouth. Apparently, the dogs have been giving me five stars, so I figured it was time to officially join Rover! 🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible! I typically start work around 9–10 AM and have the ability to work remotely for a couple of hours during the day, but I do need to be physically at work from 3–7 PM. This gives me flexibility for morning and midday walks, drop-ins, and plenty of time for pet care outside of those hours. I’m happy to care for pets wherever they’re most comfortable! Whether that’s walks and adventures outside, playtime at home, or simply keeping them company, I’ll follow their normal routine and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away.
“Maddie was great with my dog. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her after our first meet up. It is very clear how much she loves animals. She took great care of Stanley and all of my additional requests while she was at my house. I am so grateful for her, and would trust her with any pets!”

“I have had quite a few rover sitters due to moving for jobs and she has been the best by far! I felt like my dogs were well taken care of and she sent both pictures as well a couple of videos of all the cuddles/playtime. She was also respectful and dependable.”

“I am so happy I was able to book Ms. Courtney. She made me feel at ease about my little boy Charley. She was on time with all visits, followed by pictures and updates. I highly recommend her. Very nice young lady. Thank you so much Courtney! Will definitely be using her again”

Being able to watch them in my home meant so much to me with me traveling it keeps the dogs feeling comfortable and I really appreciated that from her. I can tell that the dogs really enjoyed her and the time they were able to spend they were just as happy when I left as when I got home. I think her so much will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Sarah S. was fantastic! She showed up on time and immediately held our toy poodle mix who gravitated to her right away. She listened to his care instructions and did what we asked while we were gone. When I would text her to check on him, she quickly replied also sending photos of him. He stresses very easily but he didn't feel a moment of stress with Sarah! If we ever need a pet sitter again we won't hesitate to contact her.”

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 Crystal Hill 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 Crystal Hill 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 Crystal Hill 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.
