Another great experience with Susan. She took such thoughtful care of Homer, especially during the thunderstorm. Susan also treats our home with care while she is here. We appreciate her so much!

About: I have experience pet sitting for families I nanny for, especially during holidays and busy weeks, and I’m very comfortable staying overnight in their home to make sure pets feel safe and cared for in their normal environment. I have also house sat for other families where I provided daily care such as feeding, giving fresh water, taking dogs on walks, and making sure they get plenty of potty breaks and attention. I understand how important it is for pet owners to have someone they can trust, and I always treat every home and pet with respect. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily routine! I currently work part-time as a nanny on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. My nanny schedule is very flexible and limited, which allows me to still be available for pet care throughout the day when needed. The rest of the week (Wednesdays, Fridays, weekends) I am completely free, so I have plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight stays. I’m able to give pets lots of attention and make sure they stick to their normal routine. Because my schedule is flexible, I can often accommodate last-minute bookings and provide consistent care for your pets while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my #1 priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I make sure pets are always supervised, cared for, and kept in a calm, safe environment while you’re away. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walking routines, and any special needs your pet may have. I also make sure doors and gates stay secure, leashes are properly used on walks, and your pet stays in familiar areas where they feel comfortable. Whether I’m doing a quick drop-in visit or staying overnight, I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy the entire time.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of different dogs, cats, and even a Guinea pig so I’m great with pretty much any animals. I don’t just do the bare minimum either I always make sure to keep them happy and occupied as well. This is currently my only job so I have all the time to spend taking care of your sweet fur babies, on weekdays and weekends. I’m capable of filling in with any extra things like administering medication if needed and anything else you need me to do for you.

We are so glad we found Eden on Rover.com! If you need a sitter, this is HER! She stayed at our home with our babies while we were on vacation. They were very well taken care of and she sent us pictures/videos each day we were gone! She also left the house even better than she found it. Thank you again Eden!

About: I have worked extensively with dogs for 3 years as a daycare supervisor and a lead animal caretaker for dogs that were lodging. I am comfortable and experienced with many breeds and all sizes. When it comes to size; and what some may think as an aggressive breed; nothing causes me to paws. My skill set and experience includes the care of senior and infirmed / injured dogs as well as puppies. As a lead I was also responsible for administering medications including but not limited to: eye and ear medication, pills, pastes, powders, drops, sprays, and even insulin. Animal caretaking is my passion and I hold myself to very high standards for the ethical care of creatures under my care. I am currently available from early morning till late at night to take care of your four legged family member. With me your pet will have plenty of interaction and play as well as potty breaks. During my time employed as an animal caretaker I was promoted to Lead Animal Caretaker and was trusted with keys to the building. At the end of night it was my responsibility to verify the well being of up to 150 dogs each night. Though it was not expected of me I would often drive to check on the dogs after hours. I promise to bring the same level of attention and care to your pets as well.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and trained most of them. I love senior dogs and have over 10 years of experience in taking care of Sr dogs. My last 3 dogs lived to 16, 15 and 13. My last dog and current dog is adopted from a shelter and I’ve learned to be patient and gentle with shelter dogs. I’m am allergic to cats so unfortunately I won’t be able to care for them. I do work from home so your pup will never have to wait to use the bathroom or be locked in a room or crate for hours at a time. My pup has full range of the house and your pup will too. During the first intro of my dog to yours I will keep my dog in her crate until they feel comfortable with each other. During feeding I do separate the pups and put my dog in her crate to eat. Things to bring when boarding: - Dog Bed - Crate / Blanket (if they use one) - Piece of clothing that smells like your pup’s favorite person - Food - Food and Water Bowels - Treats - 1 to 2 favorite toys - Collar and/or harness - Leash Recommendations but not required: - washing your pup before dropping them off at boarding - clipping their nails My current availability: - open availability - weekdays - weekends - overnight stays - long stays - day time stays - middle of the day walks - Fenced in yard - A dog that loves to play with new dogs - Taking pups to the dog park - Long walks - 2 to 4 hours of outside playtime

About: I’ve always been around animals and naturally treat pets like family. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal behavior, especially with nervous, energetic, or stubborn pets lol. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m dependable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets attention instead of just “checking in and leaving.” I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and pictures. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to being active throughout the day and handling responsibilities that require consistency and attention. I can work around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication reminders, and playtime. I understand pets need stability and patience, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they get attention, exercise, and care instead of just being left alone. I also try to stay flexible for last-minute needs when possible. Cats have their own quiet, separate space where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed without needing to interact with dogs unless they’re comfortable doing so. I understand cats usually do best with calm environments, patience, and giving them space to adjust at their own pace. 🐱

About: I’ve worked with all kinds of animals from playful puppies and shy rescues to senior pets who need extra care and patience. I started out volunteering at animal shelters, then gained hands-on experience as a vet assistant and kennel tech, where I helped with feeding, meds, and basic care for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also helped on my uncle’s farm, caring for everything from livestock to barn cats. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and treat every animal like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in college and part of a sorority, but I still have plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. My class schedule is flexible, and I plan ahead to make sure every pet gets the attention they need. I’m available most mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I always make time for walks, playtime, and check-ins. Pet care is something I love, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I make sure their space is clean, secure, and calm. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, and preferred walking routes. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel relaxed and cared for. I also send regular updates and photos to keep you in the loop and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, chickens, goats, donkeys etc. I have a very diverse experience in animal care. Mainly looking to take care of cats and dogs. I work as a contracted worker in sales so I create my own schedule. I’m very flexible and would be able to work around just about anything I live on a farm back home with indoor/ outdoor cats, dogs, goats, chickens, donkeys, and rabbits so I’ve been taking care of different animals since a child. I’ve also done volunteer & rescue work! It would be hard to find someone with more experience than me.

FAQs for House Sitting - Franklin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Franklin on Rover is $23.31 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 235 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Franklin. 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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin 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 Franklin. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% 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.
