“Emma took excellent care of my small senior dog Stella. I was nervous to leave her but after meeting Emma I knew she would be in good hands. Emma had no problem giving Stella her medication and sent daily updates. I would highly recommend Emma for pet sitting.”
“Tasia & her partner did a nice job with our Jerry. Jerry warmed up to them immediately during the meet & greet. They took him for a great walk while watching him & followed our instructions. They were very neat with our home as well. We would book them again.”
“We would absolutely book Kayla again! She was incredibly communicative throughout, and from the photos she sent, it was clear our dog was happy and comfortable with her—his wagging tail said it all. Since he's not typically used to being around others, we were thrilled with how well he settled in. Kayla was also very accommodating to all of our requests. Thank you, Kayla!”
About: All Paws Welcome! I have been taking care of all dogs and cats since a very young age. I grew up helping out with my aunts pet sitting business. I have a year of experience in starting my own business and am trying to build. I am available for pop in visits, dog walks and overnight home care for any needs your pet may have. Down the road I plan to be offering play groups as well I am available Thurs- Saturday from 8am - 5 pm for any pet care needs you may have. I also have a part time job that is secondary Mon-Wed. I do not offer overnight stays at my home currently. I always approach my home care with comfort and care. I have a friendly corgi that can keep your dog company but I of course know every dog is different and I always want them to feel relaxed and cozy in their environment.
“Excellent communicator for us and trustworthy friend for our pets. Our dog recognized her loving kindness right away. All pets were relaxed and happy upon our return.”
“Cade exceeded our expectations with her extra care and attention for our home, dog and cat. She even sent pictures! I felt very assured that our fur babies were in excellent hands while we were out of town.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a girl and have become the person friends, family, and others in my community trust with their pets. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as cats with a wide range of personalities and needs. Beyond cats and dogs, I’ve also cared for an array of animals including: horses, chickens, fish, ferrets, hamsters, and other small pets. I’m comfortable administering medications and caring for senior animals or pets living with illness. I take the time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and comfort level. I’m attentive, dependable, and respectful of both your pets and your home, and I’ll make sure you receive thoughtful updates while you’re away. I currently work part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routine. If your pet has a specific schedule, just let me know and I’ll do my best to keep things consistent while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and house rules you already have in place, including feeding instructions, medications, walks, crates, gates, and anything else your pet needs. I’m careful about doors, leashes, and introductions, and I’m always happy to ask questions if something isn’t clear. I’ll also keep you updated, respect your home, and leave things as clean as I found them.
“Kelly is a true gem! We are new to Rover so we had no experience and did not know what to expect. We could sense Kelly's genuineness and caring demeanor at our first meet and greet. Monroe was so well cared for while we were away for 5 days! Kelly went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you for giving us this gift of time away with no worries about our little old Yorkie.”

Will love and care for your pet like it’s my own. No request to big or small or any animal that makes me to nervous. Currently work full time M-F but can do evenings and weekends. My schedule during the week changes daily so reach out and may be able to accommodate. Will follow all instructions to the T. Will treat all animals with love and compassion. Lots of experience with animals of all sizes and breeds.
About: I am an experienced dog walker and pet sitter! I love animals of all kinds but I feel especially comfortable with dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs (you'll see my family's dog in my profile picture!). I have experience caring for puppies and older dogs. I have been a pet sitter and dog walker for friends and family for years. I enjoy spending time outside and I am a very reliable worker. My priority is your dogs safety and comfort. I feel very comfortable walking dogs of all sizes. I have been interested in dog training since I was a kid. I have a flexible schedule so please let me know what works for you! I am looking forward to meeting your pup! I have a very flexible schedule right now! As a graduate student I am able to take on pet care during the day at any time. I am committed to ensuring your pet’s safety! I always make sure harnesses and collars are secure before leaving the house. I will always wear a mask as I come into the home!
“Nishat was awesome. She was communicative, flexible, and helped make our wedding day special at spruce point inn. She went out of her way to walk the dogs to the church where we were getting married so they could be a part of our day. Completely above and beyond the expectation, couldn’t recommend more!!”
About: 35 years of experience caring for dogs, puppies, kittens & cats. I’m good with anxious dogs & scaredy cats. I have a flexible schedule, let me know how I can help. I am currently doing Rover full-time. For many years i have lived in homes with pets and helped care for them. Currently living in a home with 1 cat, 1 dog, and 12 chickens. We also do doggy day care and do boarding- so we keep pretty busy. I always walk dogs on their leashes. I make sure to keep medications and other harmful things locked away. We have a fenced in yard, but i’m always out there with them. I try to take as good care for your animals as if they were my own.
“Ievet was fantastic with our two pugs and kept us well informed about how they were doing throughout the weekend. We received lots of pictures and had tremendous piece of mind that our dogs were safe and well while we were attending an out of state funeral. Our planned dog sitter cancelled on us at the last minute and Ievet was quick to respond to our request.”
About: I have had a deep love for animals since I was a young child. Growing up I have always had at least one pet in my house, but when I was 7 I started actively taking care of them, which only increased my adoration for them. Whenever I am with animals I treat them with the philosophy that they give us nothing but love, and it is up to us to make sure they get that unconditional love back. I have watched dogs who were sick and required attentive and medicinal care, and I also have watched a dog and her newborn puppies. I am looking forward to expanding the dogs I know and hope I can show your animals the love they deserve in your absence! I'm very flexible with scheduling! When it comes to planning, I am willing to do both sporadic watching and walking or set weekly schedules. I am here to work for the schedule and needs of you and your pets! I know that each pet has specific needs and particulars, so I am willing to do what works best for them. Their comfortability comes first!
“We had such a great experience with Rebecca and felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were being so well cared for while we were away. She was incredibly attentive, followed all of our instructions, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, you could tell she genuinely cared about our dogs and treated them like they were her own. They were happy, comfortable, and well loved when we got home. It means so much to be able to leave your pets with someone you can trust, and we would absolutely have her watch them again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs most of my life so I can perform any task wanted when it comes to pet care. Just ask! As of right now I only have one chocolate lab and a black cat. We lost one and had to give our Newfoundland away. My extended family also has dogs. Between the three families we have 12 dogs, so my life basically revolves around dogs lol. They just make me happy! There’s something special about a dog and their love for their humans and everyone they meet. “If you look hard enough and long enough into the dog’s filmy black eyes, you’d swear he was thinking wise thoughts” by Khaled Hosseini. Now I’d like that thank you for trusting me with your dog! I currently work part time and have an internship part time, so I am busy Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM but am more than happy to do afternoon, and nighttime walks and dropping visits I will always follow your instructions, and I’m not afraid to ask questions if I am confused or need more information. I will provide so much love and attention.

Lauren took amazing care of my Winnie and catered to my last min request.

She gave me a play by play and updated throughout sending pics to back it up and I am so very grateful!! She took amazing care of my house aw well and made sure Winnie was as comfortable and having fun! Can’t wait to book again!’ Thank you so much Lauren!!
Melissa spent 10 days with our boys (2 boxers) and allowed us to breathe easy and enjoy our trip. From the first time we interacted with Melissa, we knew we had met a caring person who would treat our boys like they were her own. Our hope is that she will do this for a long time so we never need to worry about who we leave our boys with 💕

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Gray is $72 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $57 and $111 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Gray 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 Gray 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 Gray 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
