“Kendall did a great job caring for my dogs. They loved her!! She took them on adventures and treated them to pup cups at Starbucks! Yes, my dogs are a little bougie 😊. I highly recommend Kendall to care for your pet(s).”
“Anne did a great job watching our boys and the house while we were gone for the week. They are very spoiled and are used to having someone home with them during the day and she was able to keep them on their normal schedule while we were gone. She sent us pictures and let us know how things were going so it relieved our anxiety leaving them for the week. We really appreciate her care for them and our house.”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have three dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I treat every pet like they're my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! I’m currently a full-time college student studying Radiologic Technology from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. Since my classes are online, I spend most of my time at home and can easily plan my day around caring for pets. This allows me to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends and happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have three dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. I always make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your usual routines and any specific instructions you leave to help keep things as normal and stress-free as possible. I also understand how reassuring updates can be, so I’m happy to send pictures and messages while you're away!
About: Hi, my name is Ashlea! I am a fur momma to a beautiful little pomsky and a german shepherd!! I know how stressful it can be when you are busy or on vacation and you need someone to look after your pet. I’m here to help! A little about my background in dog sitting.... Whether it’s my families dogs, friends or neighbors dogs, they can always count on me. I absolutely love dogs and I am extremely dependable. I will treat your pup as one of my own. I love being outside and going on adventures! Cooper, Tampa and I go on multiple walks per day so it’s part of our everyday routine! Let’s be honest, dogs are better than most people. I love hanging with the dogs! 😊🐶 Available most evenings and during lunchtime. I have two dogs of my own and we take multiple walks a day as part of our daily routine. Care for them just like my own. I know how stressful it can be to leave town or have long days at work and have to worry about your pups!
About: I have 9 years of experience caring for animals and have worked at two boarding kennels for over 3 years. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning, giving attention, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. I work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule and can make time for pet care. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and boarding depending on my work schedule. I graduate in December so my schedule will free up even more! I have over 3 years of professional experience working at boarding kennels, so I understand how important safety and supervision are. I provide a clean, calm, and comfortable environment and treat every pet with care and patience. I unfortunately cant really have pets over at my house due to having a reactive dog and a bird

“Kia was fantastic! She was patient and flexible with us making changes in the time. She was very responsive and timely. Most importantly, she was very sweet with our dog Bella. We will definitely rebook with Kia when we are back in the area.”
“Reliable, thorough and kind! Damica took care of Rocky and our house while we were away on vacation and sent multiple pictures everyday without prompting. It felt relieving to know our dog was in great hands.”
“Gigi is the best!!! My dog, Archie, is a reactive dog and doesn’t tend to like many people. He immediately fell in love with her and was at ease the entire stay. She speaks to him with so much love and cares for him as if he were her own. She sent me lots of updates so I wouldn’t constantly worry as I am a mess when leaving mine. She is also very considerate of your house and extremely tidy. Could not recommend her enough and will be booking her again!! 🫶🏼”
About: I got my first dog when I was 14, and caring for her taught me what it truly means to love and be responsible for a pet. She was part of my family for many years, and after she passed away a few years ago, I realized how rewarding it is to care for animals. Since then, friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they're away. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My background working in healthcare has also made me dependable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, medication, or just some extra attention, I'll treat them like they're my own. I currently work full-time, but I have availability before work, in the evenings, and on weekends for dog walks and drop-in visits. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about my schedule. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll make sure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any special needs. I'm attentive to changes in behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.
“Noelani has sat with Diesel on multiple occasions. Diesel runs to her whenever she arrives at the house. He clearly has an attachment to her that reassures us that we have no worries about his welfare and comfort when we are away from home and Noelani is there. We will continue to use Noelani's services in the future.”

My recent retirement has given me the opportunity to give loving quality care for your pet/pets in your home any time of the day or night.

About: I have watched dogs both young and old. They are truly beautiful animals, and I love being around them. I know how to communicate with them and make them feel comfortable and loved:) Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I work approximately 10 hours a week, so I have plenty of time to care for animals and love on them. My life is pretty simple and uncluttered so being able to care for your animal would be a perfect fit for both me and your pet. I live in the country on 2.5 acres. My 2,300 square foot house is open concept and there is plenty of room for pets to roam. There are many large windows to look out and watch the wildlife. I love to take walks and there is next to no traffic in my area. My spare room has a large tree house for cats to enjoy.
About: I’ve owned several dogs over the years, and have helped family and friends with their dogs as well. I adopted a reactive pit bull and trained her, making great progress in her ability to meet new people, animals, and have new experiences, and want to help care for other animals now that she has passed. Happy to work with all kinds of dogs! I work from home so I am available during the day for quick walks and potty breaks, with time for a longer walk at lunchtime. In evenings, I often have theater rehearsals or recreational sports leagues, but am able to come home within a few hours. I am very comfortable in any environment, and I am willing to work in whichever way will make you more comfortable for your pet’s needs.
“Sammy was great! She came by to meet Leo prior to our vacation and asked all sorts of questions which really showed me she was paying attention to all of the details and that doing a good job was important to her. Sammy sent me a few messages while we were gone with updates about Leo and let me know when she arrived and left. I hope to use her services again this summer!”
“Norah is personable and reliable, and took good care of our home and two dogs for six days. When our husky mix turned down dinner and Norah observed her eating grass, she was right on top of things, immediately texting to ask if we had medication for an upset stomach (which we do). Norah was good-natured and patient with our doodle mix, who is young and rambunctious. She walked them both a couple of times each day, as we asked her to. We would definitely hire Norah again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fayette is $54 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $72 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.

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 Fayette 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 Fayette 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 Fayette 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.

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.
