About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services. We both have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. We’re comfortable following specific instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My sister, who you’ll be mainly interacting with, is reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She has hands-on experience with pet sitting, walking, and making sure pets feel comfortable in new situations. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, she’s got it covered. We know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, so we’re committed to clear communication, updates, and giving you peace of mind. I am a full time nursing student at the moment. I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!
“Haley is outstanding! The pets were well cared for, I received a lot of pictures and communication, the house was in perfect condition upon our return and I was able to enjoy our trip knowing our pets and house were well taken care of. Would highly recommend Haley!! She even made us a welcome home sign! So cute”


About: I’ve lived my entire life with dogs. I currently have a 8-year-old Australian Shepherd and live with a 5-year-old Golden Retriever. I enjoy walking all dog breeds and sizes, and can help leash train your dog. I currently work remote Monday-Friday 8am-5pm with a one hour lunch break and am fully free on weekends. This leaves plenty of time to take care of your furry friends during the morning, midday, and evening. I would need internet access and a desk or tabletop during weekdays. I am open for FaceTiming, calls, and communication whenever needed and am particular about following instructions provided by the pet parent. They know best about their furry family members! I am also very strict about proper and comfortable leashing on walks or any time outside without a fenced in yard.
“Lyndsay was super communicative with me from start to finish. My flight got delayed and offered to stay a few extra hours past what we agreed upon. She sent me pics of my babies throughout the day and the entire weekend. I highly recommend her and trust her with my pups!”

About: Hello! My family has had pets (cats and dogs) my entire life. I currently have two cats of my own- Nova and Arrow. I am very responsible and know how important pets are in one's life- they are family too! I enjoy running and would love to take your dog on a run with me! I can also play fetch for hours. I have experience dog-sitting for many of my friends when they are out of town, as I am almost always here during the holidays (my family lives out of state). I'm unable to have a dog of my own right now, so I would love to spend some time with yours! Whatever special needs your pet requires, just let me know I will happily oblige! I can be available on short notice and am around most weekends and holidays! I'm also hoping to meet new people through this that share a similar passion for animals :)
“Karla was absolutely wonderful with my two Golden Retrievers, Shiloh and Snow. She was kind, responsible, communicative, and clearly cared for them as if they were her own. Throughout my trip, I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all care instructions, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. I returned home to two very well-cared-for and content dogs. I highly recommend Karla and will gladly book with her again!”

“Dana is awesome. No better way to put it. When we're away and have a lot going on, our pup at home is never a concern and is having a great time when Dana is taking care of her. You can't go wrong with Dana and your furry family member.”

About: I have been a dedicated pet owner and animal lover my entire life, caring for both dogs and cats from childhood through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of raising and caring for multiple pets, including those adopted, rescued, or entrusted to me by others. At one point, I lovingly managed a household of five pets, ensuring each received attentive, compassionate care. My experience also includes caring for a beloved dog left to me by a close friend, honoring his wish that I provide a safe and loving home. Today, I continue that same level of care by helping my son and his wife with their dogs whenever they travel—my “granddogs,” who I adore. With a lifetime of hands-on experience, I understand the importance of trust, consistency, and genuine affection when it comes to pet care. I am now excited to extend that care to others in my community, offering reliable, attentive support for pet owners who need assistance while traveling or during busy workdays. Thank you for the opportunity to care for your pets—they will be treated like family. I'm currently retired I retired from the federal government working for the NOAA Hurricane Hunters after 33 years of service. I've been enjoying travel and visiting with family and friends and when I'm home I thought I could do some things that I enjoy and help other people that may need or want to travel or just need help with their fur babies 🐕🐾🐈⬛️🐈 I currently do this for my son and his wife when they want to travel the world or have business trips with my granddogs 👑🐾😆🐕 For clients that need assistance with pet sitting, I usually love to have an outline of what you prefer so that I can honor the type care that you also provide your pets. I follow an outline when I care for my family's pets when they travel and they provide the list of the vitamins or any quarks or anything that I need to know a timeline and I just try to honor whoever needs care by how they would like the care handled while they are away. The main thing is that I don't want anybody to worry when I'm caring for their pets. You should be able to travel and handle business trips or vacations without worrying if you're not able to take your pet with you that they're safe and well cared for. I also like to make notes daily,if I'm giving vitamins or supplements or anything occurs I want to share. I like to keep track of it and leave that sheet for you when you return.
“Abbie was great! My high energy dog was so tired when we got home from our trip. That is definitely an accomplishment! The updates are plenty & always appreciated! Definitely our go to sitter.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. Ever since I was a kid, animals have been a big part of my life. My grandfather owned a farm, where I helped care for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and many other animals. Those experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand the unique needs of each animal. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply relaxing with companionship, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I'm dependable, responsible, and committed to keeping pet parents informed. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you'll always know how your furry family member is doing. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with kindness, patience, and respect. My goal is to earn your trust by providing a safe, fun, and loving experience for your pet while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, consistent care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I plan my day around each pet's needs and routine, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it's a quick drop-in, daily walks, or overnight care, I'm committed to being dependable and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pet's safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so they receive the best possible care. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment while following your feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any medication or care instructions. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a secure environment. During walks, I use safe handling practices and stay alert to my surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and respect I'd give my own.
“Lilly was such a pleasure to have! We hired her because of her excellent reviews and full background check. We have two rescue dogs so kenneling them is not an option! We decided to have a pet sitter come to our home and stay here. Lilly asked all the pertinent questions and handled everything at our home with no issues. We have two dogs (93 lb lab and a 49 lb beagle mix) and a parakeet. The house was left neat and clean! I highly recommend her!”

“Francesca was AMAZING!!! She cared for our puppy Honey for a few nights and we never had to worry. She took her on multiple walks, our doggy park & sent us so many photos! She even made sure to put the TV on for Honey before leaving. Honey absolutely loved her. We cannot wait to use Francesca again - she was the best dog sitter ever ❤️”

“Jonathan was wonderful, my 16-year-old dog loved him instantly. My dog was not at all out of sorts after a long weekend which means meds were given on time, he had plenty of walks (probably more than normal), and he wasn't left alone for too long. Jonathan communicated appropriately throughout his stay and my home was left very neat and tidy. I'm extremely thankful for his kind care of my old, curmudgeonly dog.”

“Alison was prompt and went the extras for my animals. I got pictures and check ins. This was the first time the animals had been left with someone they didn’t know. They were happy to see me, but not crazed so I know they were fine. The animals donuts have been good as she said I can book her again!!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Green on Rover is $25.68 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 939 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Green. 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green 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 Fort Green. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
