“Autumn was awesome! She did a fantastic job with our dog while we were away for 2 weeks. Very responsive and took great care of our dog. We will be booking with her for our future sitter needs and highly recommend her!”
“We needed someone to take care of our 2 dogs while we went out of town and were so happy to find Kaysee to house sit. Communication was wonderful throughout the whole experience (meet and greet, while we were away, and everything in between). She was friendly, reliable, and respectful of our home. We would definitely use her services again and highly recommend!”
“Sara was so welcoming to Tashi. She took him for walks and let him nap on the couch. He stayed 2 nights while we hiked in Zion. He was happy and refreshed when we picked him up. I highly recommend Sara and using this service if you are exploring the National Parks that do not allow dogs on trails.”
“Sheridan was a wonderful sitter for my two cats. She was very conscientious in my home and took great care of them. I loved all the photos she sent. I was very happy with her services and will gladly use her again for pet sitting.”
“Laina was an excellent caretaker for Cooper. Cooper has lots of anxiety and needs lots of patience which Laina was able to provide. She had great communication the whole time and made me feel comfortable Cooper was cared for. As difficult as Cooper can be to handle she was able to do it. I would happily recommend Laina to anyone who wants their dog cared for properly for their specific needs. She even got Cooper to feel comfortable enough to lick her hand which is not like him with new people. Great communication, great care, ten out of ten experience, by far the best I could’ve hired. Thank you so much Laina!”
“Mandolyn was great with our pup! She engaged him mentally and physically and was a trooper keeping him occupied during several days of rain. She listened, followed instructions and takes her job seriously. Will definitely use her again.”
“Sonya was great! She stayed with our dog Moose and our gecko Spike. She sent so many wonderful photos and communicated throughout. We really appreciate her taking such good care of them both.”
About: I always have loved pets! When I was growing up everyone around me wanted me to walk/care/ or watch their dog / pet Because they knew I would exceed their needs and more! I am also a mom of two under two so besides pets I also love kids! And all of my pets are kid and pet friendly:)! Thanks for looking at my page! Hope to see you and your furry pal soon :) I’m a very flexible individual! And I am always willing to adjust anything to fit your furry friends daily routine! Im always willing to go out of my way for any pet! :) I’m also a stay at home mom so my schedule is basically open anytime because I’m always home and available! I don’t have a fenced back yard, but I’m always monitoring any pets that are outside on leash. and it’s a very moderate household. We are usually doing something outdoorsy or going on some fun adventure! And we will always exceed your pets needs and adjust our household to just that while your pet stays. :)
About: I've had cats all my life, dogs most of my adult life. Have bottle fed newborns and have had many pass away after long lives. When in High School I was a dog sitter and trainer for my neighbors. I'm retired so I'd expect to fed, walk, play with them through the day. While visiting your town I will want to go to the gym and probably try some places to eat, but don't have other obligations. I'm not planning on hosting. I'm not planning on hosting.

“Laura is a doglover, my boxer likes her very much. She took him to his favorite dogpark to meet his friends too. Laura is very responsible and is very friendly to work with. Thanks Laura.”
“Oh I have been looking high and low since moving to Asheville for someone reliable like Madison. She was amazing with our two boxer dogs, one of which is higher anxiety and energy. She was great with communicating and sending pictures. We felt so at ease being away with Madison caring for our two pups.”
“Grey was fantastic with my older dog, Luna. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog. He was incredibly communicative and sent me wonderful updates and pictures throughout my trip. I will definitely rebook with him!!”
“Carolyn is wonderful! She instantly made us feel at ease, knowing our animals and home would be taken care of while we were out of town. We already have her booked for another stay. Highly recommend!”
“Natasha was simply wonderful! Communicative, sending regular updates and photos, personable, reliable and friendly. She took very good care of my baby boy Louie while I was out of town. Highly recommend Natasha for your pet sitting needs!”
“Constance was great!! I was a bit nervous leaving my kitty after having her for only a month but Constance made sure to play with her and give her plenty of cuddles and attention. She sent great updates and pictures while I was away and I wasn’t worried one bit. She even got my kitty to use her cat tree! I would 100% recommend :)”
“We went to the beach for an entire week and had Kyla come stay at our house. We have a Great Dane, German Shepard, and two cats. Our Great Dane is elderly and has some mobility issues so we were nervous to leave her. Kyla was AWESOME! She took amazing care of our zoo and sent DAILY updates with pictures. She brought in our mail everyday and even keep up our floor so we didn't come home to fur everywhere. Kyla was flexible and accommodating, and it is clear she really cares for all animals. I would HIGHLY recommend Kyla and will use her again in the future.”
“Very pleased with Suzanne. I came home to a happy, tired dog from all the hikes they did together, and a clean house. Easy to communicate with and attentive to my dog’s quirks and needs. I will definitely be using Suzanne again!”
“Chloe did an amazing job with 5+ animals and our home! Her communication was consistent and everyone was happy and settled when we returned home! Will definitely try to get Chloe whenever we can!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gibsontown on Rover is $44.4 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 687 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gibsontown. 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 Gibsontown 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 Gibsontown 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 Gibsontown 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 Gibsontown. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% 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.
