“Charlayne was amazing! She took excellent care of my 3 while i was away for a week! She had a busy schedule during this time but still managed to prioritize the care of my pups! She sent photos with updates throughout my trip. I also came home to a clean house! It’s an amazing feeling not having to worry about my fur babies while on vacation and then to come home to peace is such a blessing! Thank you so much!”
“Morgan was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my dog, Remington! She is so sweet, kind, and professional. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Remington was well cared for and comfortable with her. Morgan is an excellent communicator and made the entire experience easy and stress-free. Morgan even cleaned Remington’s dishes and followed the feeding instructions exactly perfectly! I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 💗🐾⭐️”
“Alisha provided exceptional care for our two pups, Astro and Comet, while we were away. We were anxious leaving our fur babies behind, but Alisha made us feel safe and comfortable with regular updates and affectionate care. It's clear that she treats pets as if they were her own. We will absolutely be utilizing Alisha's services again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet sitter. A true gem!”
About: I have house sat and taken care of pets for family and friends since 2023. Mostly worked with medium sized dogs and puppies! But I also have so much love for cats Im currently working part-time as a phlebotomist mon-fri from 8am-12pm. Pet care fits in my schedule perfectly for 6:30am morning care, 1pm potty breaks and play time, 6pm potty break/ dinner, 10pm night break or spend overnight if needed! This is how my typical routine goes when house sitting for family and friends! <3 My main goal when taking care of your home and or pets is to follow your care routine, keep fur babies safe in their homes, and make sure they don’t miss out of pets and cuddles while you’re gone.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received this weekend! Leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, but from the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious my babies were well cared for, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. When I came home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful stay. I truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and genuine love shown to my pets. It’s clear that caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s something Rachel genuinely enjoys. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my fur babies!”

I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members, so I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, whether they love to play, go on walks, cuddle on the couch, or just need some company. I’m dependable, patient, and will make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting lots of attention while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!

Walks, playtime, naps, all of it is important for the growth and to promote a healthy mindset for animals I have a fenced in yard for lots of play time, I have many toys for dogs or cats to play with and will be able to take them on walks often if needed
“Julie was superb! Communicated very well and sent tons of pictures. The pups seemed very happy and content. She even took out the trash and replaced some coffee pods, which certainly was above and beyond. We will certainly try to book her on our next vacation.”
“Cassidy has been the best! We are thankful and grateful on how well she took care of our dogs. She genuinely care and love them like it was hers. I highly recommend her to anyone! She will be our sitter moving forward!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of every breed and size since I was young. I have always had dogs growing up and I still have my childhood dog of 10 years+. I am able to walk, feed, and bathe the pets if needed. I can also help with tricks and crate training as well! I am currently going back to school for my doctorate in occupational therapy and it is a hybrid program, I want the flexibility of having my own schedule and arranging it around my school schedule. My pets have a schedule and understand their schedule, so if your pup has that, I will be happy to help! I also have three types of breeds within my home, so I understand the importance of boundaries, separate feedings, crating, and ensuring each dog is taken care of on their individual needs.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds. From small Chihuahuas, Labs and German Shepherds. I have experience with pets with special needs and medication. I work as a guest teacher when I'm not pet watching. I tend to plan my schedule a week or two before and can be available most days for pet care. I look forward to giving your pets all the love and play time they need. I absolutely love animals and look forward to meeting yours.(: I treat every pet like my own while respecting the routines they’re used to. I make sure they’re comfortable, well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, and I always keep owners updated so they feel at ease while they’re away.
“I asked Mikah ~very~ last minute to stay with my old gal, and I am so lucky she said yes! She is so sweet and did a great job with Sophie. She is responsive and great with her communication. Will def be booking with her again! ☺️🫶🏼”
“Alyssa was great with my little Bentley. She was very timely in her arrival and had a great attitude when I was running late. Alyssa kept me updated with pictures And video to ensure me my pup was in good hands. Thanks to Alyssa, I had a worry free trip to Texas and comfort knowing that there are great sitters out there for my next trip. Thank you so much Alyssa!”
About: I've had animals in my life since birth, literally. My mom is a veterinarian and raised me to be just like her. It worked 😅 I am an aspiring veterinarian with a lifetime of experience when it comes to caring for the furry, scaly, aquatic, or just different members of the family! I currently work as a vet tech in Midlothian, so if your pet needs any sort of medication, I am highly qualified for medical administration as well. I currently work as a full-time veterinary technician in Midlothian. Most of my "free time" centers around the weekends but I do have more limited availability during the week as well. No matter where I am, I vow to provide any pet with the utmost amount of care. I specialize in belly rubs, butt scratches, and laser pointers. Also, if you want your pet's nails trimmed or anal glands expressed, I can do that too 😂

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Garrett on Rover is $49.95 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 1,593 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Garrett. 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 Garrett 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 Garrett 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 Garrett 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 Garrett. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
