“Asheley was amazing with our senior dog and cats. Our dog got sick a few days into our trip and she was great about sending updates and making sure she was ok (and cleaning up a huge mess!). I would definitely recommend using her.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She was reliable, communicative, and we were so grateful she was available to help us out last minute. Our dogs loved her, and we felt completely comfortable having her stay with them. She went above and beyond taking care of both the dogs and our home, and everything was clean and tidy when we got back. We would absolutely love to have Elizabeth stay again and would happily recommend her!”
About: Hi! Before moving to Tennessee, I lived at a 35-dog professional racing kennel on the North Shore of Minnesota. Needless to say, I am passionate about dogs, and critters of all kinds for that matter! I am well-versed in medication delivery, first-aid, temperamental pets, unique feeding preferences, and just about anything else you could throw at me. I work from home with flexible hours! I am a notorious early bird and I’m more than happy to spend as much time as possible with your baby. I am eager to learn your exact care preferences to make sure your pet barely notices you’re gone! As the owner of two incredibly high-energy breeds, I believe that a tired pooch is a happy one. I would love nothing more than to make sure your baby has fetched, walked, and played to their heart’s desire.
“Jessica arrived on time and Loki instantly felt comfortable with her! She was also very patient when the event I was going to got delayed, so I very much appreciated how willing she was to stay with my dog until I got home. Would book her again!”
“Elena did a phenomenal job watching our dog! Picking a sitter can be tough, especially when you love your pet like we do. But she blew away expectations. She was very receptive to all our instructions and followed them with care. She gave us pictures and video updates so we could see our dog and have peace of mind while on vacation. We will be using her as our #1 dog sitter moving forward. I wouldn't even look elsewhere after she took such great care of our animal. Elena is THEBOMB.COM!!!”
“Leigh-Ann was beyond wonderful and the perfect sitter for our 5 month old golden retriever Sonny! 10/10!! Her daily text, photo and video updates made me feel so at ease and allowed me to see the bond that Leigh-Ann and Sonny were forming. We could see that Sonny was so loved and throughly cared for the whole time he was under her care! He even learned some new tricks which Leigh-Ann so intuitively taught him while we were away with great success! I can’t say enough good things, we feel so lucky to have found Leigh-Ann and couldn’t recommend her enough to care for your fury family members!!”
About: I love dogs and have had my own for nearly 10 years. While I'm new to Rover, I'm no stranger to taking care of dogs of all ages and energy levels. I'm experienced with administering all types of medications as well. Please feel free to reach out if you're looking for a reliable and flexible sitter! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility during the day to assist with whatever is needed, including drop-ins, walks, or overnight care. My priority will always be to keep the pet as comfortable as possible by sticking to their normal routines for meals, walks, play time, etc. I'm no stranger to that in my personal life with my own pet.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life, having grown up on a farm in Alabama which was home to various stray (then adopted) animals! I was a doggie mom for 13 years to a handsome Jack Russell Shi Tzu mix who passed away last year. I would be honored to care for your pet while you're away! Please note: Ideal for dogs who are comfortable while their owners are at work or who can be left alone during the day. I work full-time Monday–Friday, so I accept house sits that fit around my work schedule while providing attentive morning, evening, overnight, and weekend care. Ideal for dogs who are comfortable while their owners are at work or who can be left alone during the day. I work at an office 9am-4pm on weekdays, so I accept house sits that fit around my work schedule while providing attentive morning, evening, overnight, and weekend care. I will take good care of your pets and home while you are away. I will make sure pets are comfortable and loved, and follow all owner instructions for care. I can also provide light cleaning, watering plants, and bring in the mail during my stay.
“Casey took care of our two dogs and cat for a week while we were traveling. She came to our house to meet the “boys” about a week before we left and all three of them took an instant liking to her! She stayed at our house so the boys could be in familiar surroundings and kept us in the loop with photos and texts while we were traveling so we could see what a good time they were having back at home. I will definitely ask her to pet sit again. It was a great experience for our boys and for us.”
“Great interaction and my dog wasn’t even mad at me when I returned. Usually he turns his back to me after I’ve been gone a few days (while sitting on my feet so I can’t leave again). Jayla must have kept him happy because he is relaxed and calm.”
“Elyssa is absolutely a fantastic sitter. She watched our golden retriever for the weekend while we were out of town. It was our first time leaving him post moving which always makes me nervous. Elyssa, though, was fantastic. At first contact, she set up a meet and greet to come meet us and Triton to make sure we were a good fit (which I appreciated a ton). It always makes me feel better meeting the person who will be taking care of my fur baby. She is great at communication and responds quickly with any updates. Triton got so much love and pets while we were gone and we were able to not worry of him while being gone. I’m really grateful for how well he was taken care of and the peace of mind we had leaving him in Elyssa’s hands!”
About: I have experience with many animals including dogs, cats, exotics, and farm animals! I’m an aspiring veterinarian and a part time veterinary assistant at a mixed practice animal hospital. I have hundreds of hours of experience with my local veterinarian, dog walking at my local animal shelter, and pet sitting. I was trained at the Williamson County Animal Center to work with dogs showing early signs of severe behavioral issues. I have experience with wary, unsure dogs who need time to warm up. I have experience with disabled animals including those with spinal injuries, cerebral hypoplasia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, age related problems, and more. I have raised and cared for several puppies, but I also care for many seniors. I have an 11 year old dog myself! I’m currently a commuting college student who has availability before/after school that allows me to take care of pets in the Franklin, TN area in my free time! I am very vigilant when it comes to the safety and wellbeing of the animals in my care. I treat your babies like my own and am quick to alert you if something feels wrong!
“Jericho was great! She sent updates and photos regularly. My sweet boy was happy and relaxed when I returned home and the house as left in good shape. Will book again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Duplex is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $106 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,256 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Duplex. 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 Duplex 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 Duplex 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 Duplex 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Duplex. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
