“Great communication. He went above & beyond for my pups & cat. I would definitely have him sit for my fur babies again. He treated them as if they were his own. He sent me pictures of them also.”
“Olivia took excellent care of Padme. She kept me updated and sent me pictures while I was away. She did more than I would’ve ever expected! Will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Christina did wonderful taking care of our dog Kingsley. Sent picture updates and walked him and played with him as well. Our house was cleaner when we returned than it was when we left. Will definitely use again!”
“Riley is phenomenal! She spent 3 days with our 2 dogs while we went out of town on short notice. At the meet and greet we got to see her bond with the dogs immediately. She was patient with my nerves over leaving them with anyone besides a friend for the first time, took excellent care of the house, was communicative between our booking and departure, and kept us updated with pictures throughout her stay. We came home to very happy, calm, well regulated dogs who had clearly gotten lots of love and attention while we were away. We will definitely rebook next time we need any pet care. Thank you Riley!”
“Kristy did a fantastic job for us and Ollie. She is a great communicator, super reliable and took excellent care of our dog and home. She sent us pictures of Ollie everyday. Will definitely use her again.”
“Teresa and Michael were outstanding. They helped out in a jam when our regular "sitter" became sick last minute. They took great care of the pup and communicated very well with us throughout the two days. Highly recommend and will definitely use again.”
“Dan was great to work with again! Our 2 pups enjoyed having Dan watch them for an afternoon. Highly recommend! We will continue to work with him in the future. Thank you!”
“Incredible sitter- so sweet, kind, caring, communicative and left both our home and our pups in fantastic shape! 12/10 would recommend Lauren and will be using her again!”
About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
“Abby did an absolute amazing job watching our ten month puppy while we were on spring break vacation. She lived at our house for the week. She took our puppy for walks, gave her so many snuggles and came home on her lunch break each day to let our puppy outside and play. We 100% recommend Abby!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was five years old, my family got a dog named Midnite, and taking care of him is what first made me realize how much I love being around animals. As a kid, I volunteered at a local dog groomer for two years, where I got experience helping out and learning how to work with dogs of all different personalities. More recently, I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends and have also helped take care of their cats. I’ve even had experience caring for senior pets, including a German Shepherd and senior cat who needed regular medications. All of these experiences have helped me become more comfortable, patient, and confident when caring for animals. I am currently working full time from home. This gives me time to walk, play, and cuddle animals who need some attention. I also have reliable transportation and a love of enjoying the outdoors. I have extensive experience taking care of cats and dogs in their owners homes. Making sure they have access to water, are fed, medications are administered, and they are comfortable and happy. I also have experience walking dogs who are great on the leash and some who pull.
“We give Melissa our HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! She was a pet sitter for us for 6 days/5 nights! We just moved to the area and needed to find a responsible person to take care of our dog while we were out of town. Melissa was super responsive, highly professional and extremely trustworthy. Our pet has a significant medical condition and Melissa kept us updated and was extremely comfortable handling any special needs. She left our home in better condition that we left it. She went above and beyond to take care of our dog and we so appreciated it! We have used many pet sitters in the past, but Melissa was a step above all others!”

“Cassandra was amazing and will definitely be booking with her again. She spoiled Tavi with tons of walks and cuddles. I received tons of updates and she left my apartment extremely clean.”
“Bridget was great and Vanessa loved her. I appreciated the daily updates with videos & photos. It was our first time trying in home care while we were away and we are very pleased with Bridget as our choice. We will definitely rebook when we go away in the future.”
About: I treat every dog like family, providing loving, dependable care. I’m patient with puppies, gentle with senior dogs, and always keep owners updated with photos and messages.

“Anna and her husband watched all four of our pups for over a week and did a fantastic job caring for them and paying close attention to their individual needs. Anna was easy to book and work with. We would love to have her and her husband watch our pups in the future!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Five Corners
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Five Corners on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 357 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Five Corners. 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 Five Corners 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 Five Corners 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 Five Corners 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Five Corners. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
