About: Hi, I’m Bree! I have loved and cared for animals my entire life. Growing up, my home was always filled with pets, ranging from dogs and cats to hedgehogs and lizards! Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and unique care needs. I absolutely love all animals and will do everything to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home when you’re away. When your pet is with me, they will get lots of attention, plenty of playtime, and a schedule that follows your requests. I promise to send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry. I can't wait to meet your furry family members! August: For the remainder of summer, I work M-Th from 8-2 and am home the rest of the week. September: As a graduate student and a part-time substitute teacher, my schedule is and predictable. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I am away for short subbing shifts from 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM, meaning I am home all afternoon and evening. On Wednesdays, I have in-person classes and am away from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. However, to ensure pets are never left alone for too long, my background-checked boyfriend can stop by every Wednesday during his lunch break for a midday potty, stretch, and playtime break! Fridays are my online class days, so I am home with your pets all day long! Over the weekends, I have fully open availability to dedicate to your pet's care. Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!
“Lauren was great with Nova, who was only a week out from spaying and needed to be kept (relatively) calm. It was nice not having to worry about her and could be fully present at my kid’s swim meet.”
“Madison!!! Can’t say enough great things about her! She was the first person I hired off of this site and she was absolutely awesome! Everything went smoothly! She was so good to my pets and I felt so safe having her stay in our home. She’s very down to earth and you can tell she loves animals. I would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER to literally anyone and everyone!!”
“SirJahad was a fantastic housesitter for my 5 month old puppy and cat. He sent plenty of pictures and detailed messages over the three days we were away. He followed our instructions and took our rambunctious dog on several walks daily.”
About: I don’t discriminate against any type of breed. I care for them as they are my own . There is no problem for me in giving medications, if needed. I currently work full time . They would be taken care of in the morning, if needed at lunch time . Once done my normal work day, then I would go back to them for however long was needed . In the clients home : We would play, go for walks if the dog enjoys them . I like to snuggle and sit with them, I will converse with them . I always make sure they have fresh water .
“Morgan was phenomenal! Our dogs bonded with her right away. She learned their individual characters and personalities! We got lots of funny pictures. She took them out back and played with them! She was great in the house and she has the sweetest personality! Ww can’t wait to have an excuse to use her again. I think the dogs were bummed after she left Lol!”
About: I have experience taking care of and training pets of all ages. I can administer medication, feed, train, and play with your pets with ease. In addition to taking care of & house sitting for cats and dogs, I’ve done so for chickens as well. I am so excited to spend time with your pets!! I am currently applying to full-time jobs that utilize my newfound degrees, so I have a lot of free time to take care of and meet new furry friends! Very open to having a meet and greet to make sure I’m the right fit for your pet. I am highly responsible and am CPR certified. I am a very organized and conscientious person, and I aim to ensure that your pet’s safety and happiness are of paramount importance☺️
“Zahira was a great dog and housesitter! She was punctual, very communicative and sent plenty of photos and videos of our dog each day. Our pup was happy and healthy when we got home. We’ve already booked her to watch our dog again! Highly recommend, thanks so much!!”
“Julia stayed with our pup for 9 days while we were away. He was so happy with her. We received pictures and updates unsolicited but also quickly if we asked how everything was going. Our dog was so relaxed (although very excited to see us) when we got home. Previously when he had come home from a kennel he'd be off for a good 48 hours. I'd happily book again.”
About: Hi!! I am extremely passionate and caring towards animals and would love to befriend your pup to help you out in any way i can!! :) I currently work part time at a restaurant :) my hours there are Friday 4pm-8pm and Sunday 11:30am-8pm I can adjust if need be. I am also a college student but I am all online!! My dog is my very best friend and he means the world to me, his safety, health, and happiness is the most important thing to me. I would love to learn about your dog and get comfortable with them and form a bond with them so i can help you whenever you need!
“Gregory was excellent with our Husky boy, Buddy! He stayed with him as asked and played in the backyard. He even did training exercises with him to keep him mentally stimulated. We will definitely use Gregory again!”
About: My parents got me my very first dog when I was six years old, and honestly, that was the beginning of my lifelong dog obsession. Since then, I’ve always had dogs (sometimes more than one) so caring for pups has been a normal part of my everyday life for as long as I can remember. I’ve handled everything from tiny cuddle bugs to big goofy giants, seniors who need a gentle pace, and energetic pups who think every day is a marathon. Because I grew up with dogs, I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training, meds, and understanding each dog’s unique personality. I treat every pup like family, because that’s exactly what dogs have always been to me. I run a photography business, so outside of scheduled times where I am shooting (weddings, family portraits etc), I'm very much available to take care of your pets with my full priority. If I'm not in front of a client, I can do all of my other work without needing to be in any specific place and without time constraints, so I'm happy to put down my editing tablet for long walks, play times and any attention and care that your pets could want or need. Security, fullfillment, and furry photos are my mottos. I want to make sure that your rules are followed to the letter, and I'm happy to be recorded/walks tracked to give you ease of mind. Next I want to make sure that your pets feel that someone is there that cares about them, is interested in them and wants to give them exciting play times and COMPANY, not just supervision. And finally, so long as you're okay with it, I'm happy to bring my camera along and take some professional pictures of your hairy best friend for fun and sharing with you (feel free to turn it down, and of course I'm not charging anything for it, I just think everyone deserves good pictures of their family!)
“Rebecca was great! She put up with my very clingy dog and gave her lots of snuggles and attention. ❤️ Great communication and overall wonderful experience. Will be booking with her again!”
“Maddy was an amazing house sitter for our boy Oliver. We cannnot recommend her enough. She was clean and kept us updated on Oliver while we were away. She will be our go too from now on!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ferrell
Abigail is absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend her services. She treated my pups like family and my home with respect. She is open and clear with communication and I absolutely love the photo updates. I am looking forward to working with her in the future!
Taylor was absolutely wonderful! Her communication skills were excellent with us from the beginning and throughout the evening while taking care of our dog. She was very professional and we had no doubt our dog was in great hands! We highly recommend her and wished she lived closer to us as it has been difficult to find someone you can truly feel comfortable with and having total trust in her. Thank you again Taylor!

FAQs for House Sitting - Ferrell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 4,760 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ferrell. 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 Ferrell 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 Ferrell 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 Ferrell 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.

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.
