“Lydia was so great to work with. She sent multiple updates about how our dogs were doing. She obviously really loves dogs and does so well with them. We feel so much better about planning trips in the future when we know we can call upon Lydia to watch our pups.”
“Aaron was great with our furbabies, Molly and Teddy. We were a little nervous about leaving them but Aaron seemed to take a genuine interest in them and was willing to give plenty of play time to our boy, Teddy, and lots of cuddles for Molly. We got regular updates and photos and Aaron kept us updated on how they were doing. With him housesitting, we felt comfortable that the dogs could have their routine while we were away. When we got home the place was just as we left it, tidy and everything in its place. We hope to use Aaron again and recommend him if you're looking for someone trustworthy who really seems to love dogs.”
“Andrew is an exceptional dog, cat sitter! I'm very picky who I'll let watch my best friend & stay in my house and he did an amazing job. He communicated regularly with pics and videos and everyone was happy when I returned! I can't wait to use him regularly when we need a dog/cat sitter! Thank you Andrew!!”
“Needed some last minute help watching my Dog Catie. Thank goodness Heather came to my rescue. Very responsible willing to go above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable with her even offered to stop and get treats for her on her way. Send pictures of our pup so we knew she was happy. Very nice and communicative. I would recommend”
“This is the second time using Rebecca. She was very prompt, responsive, provided updates including pictures and most of all took great care of my dog. She can be a nervous dog and she feels comfortable with Rebecca.”
About: Hi, I’m Bri! 🐾 I’m the kind of pet sitter who treats your pets like family — with patience, love, and plenty of attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your cat needs a calm companion, your pup needs extra playtime, or your pet simply needs someone reliable while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel cared for in their own home. I’ll follow their routine, respect their personality, and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. ❤️ My goal isn’t just to “watch” your pet — it’s to make them feel loved, secure, and spoiled while you’re away. 🐶🐱 I work full-time, but pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy doing outside of work. I understand how hard it can be to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets when you’re busy, traveling, or away from home. While my weekday availability is centered around my work schedule, I’m dependable about the times I commit to and make the most of every visit. I’ll give your pets plenty of attention, follow their normal routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m especially passionate about providing reliable, personalized care rather than treating every pet the same. I’ll take the time to learn their personality, needs, and little quirks — and I’ll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️ **Your pets get my full attention when I’m with them, and you get a sitter you can count on.** 🐶🐱🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I believe great pet sitting starts with creating a calm, secure, and trustworthy environment where your pets can feel relaxed while you’re away. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and needs, while making sure their surroundings stay clean, safe, and comfortable. I’m attentive to details, respectful of your home, and committed to providing dependable care you can feel confident in. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or simply loves to relax, I’ll give them the patience, supervision, and personalized attention they deserve. **Your home is their safe space, and I’ll treat it — and your pets — with the same care and respect I would want for my own. ❤️🐶🐱**
“Shelly is a treat! We've never gone on vacation without our dog because she can be a real handful and we didn't want to burden anyone else. Well, a trip came up where we couldn't take her and we decided to give home sitting a shot. Enter our hero, Shelly. She made the whole process easy and, more importantly, our dog loved her, which is a rarity. Long story short, we love Shelly!”
“Thankful for Ariana's help with our house sitting request. She was amazing with following all the requirements and instructions for our 2 large fur babies. Sent us regular pictured updates. We were contented and comfortable knowing that she was caring for our furkids while we were away. Our pups were also very comfortable with her. We will surely be returning clients!”
“From the meet and greet, we felt Kiera was very gentle and knew exactly how to approach our cats, Millie and Blaine. She did not disappoint. Kiera sent us pictures during our time away, and it was obvious Millie and Blaine were content. She also provided house sitting services, leaving out house in perfect condition. We would feel very comfortable asking Kiera to stay with them in the future.”
“Ava still doesn't like when we leave, but Shawna P. has done a great job making her feel as comfortable as possible. Ava still yells at us when we get home, but she is much more relaxed and happier than if she spent the time boarding at the kennel.”
“This was our first time using Brittney we needed a dog sitter on short notice. We had two meet and greets and felt very comfortable with her. While we were away, she did a great job taking care of all three dogs sending us updates and photos. The dog seemed to enjoy having her around and seemed to be very comfortable with her. We will definitely be using Brittney in the future.”
“Sidnie was the best. She was so so good to our boys and went above and beyond with their care. It was so wonderful to come home to a clean apartment and happy puppies! So grateful for her efforts!♥️”
About: I am very well organized, love being around animals and will make sure your pet is loved, comfortable, well fed and well taken care of! I currently only work 3-4 times a week for 4-5 hours at a time, so I am very available and willing to take the time for your pet! I have a large dog who is very well trained and I am very good with his feeding and potty schedule! He truly is my best friend!
About: I have been helping take care of animals since I was five. I grew up with animals in the house and have always made friends with animals. I have not found an animal that doesn’t like me in my 25 years of life. I help take care of many families who request me multiple times in a year. I am a full-time special education teacher who works from 7:30 in the morning to 4:30 in the afternoon. I can stay overnight and do drop ins. The times in between the drop ins would just have to be longer during the day due to not being able to leave work. I spend a lot of time with them when I can because they need that consistency of love and care as if their owners were there. I make sure they go to the bathroom, are fed, and given attention since their owners are gone. I love playing with them if they are animals who enjoy playing with toys.
“Emily was awesome ! Very friendly and knowledgeable, On short notice she was able to accommodate my schedule. She gave me daily updates, would ask questions if anything came up . Maverick enjoyed Emily and my home was left in better condition after she left than when she came. Very conscientious about the needs of Maverick. She will definitely be requested to come back again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Greenwood is $46

Shakarra watched our 2 dogs and 2 cats for 2 weeks. I’ve never been away from them for that long. She kept me up to date and was very responsive. I appreciated having someone in our home who everyone was comfortable with. She came over 2 times before actually staying to make sure things were going to work. My dogs took to her immediately. I ran into some travel delays but Shakarra was flexible and kind enough to do an additional stop by to make sure everyone was good. She tidied up the house before she left which was icing on the cake for our arrival home. I feel so grateful to have found a great pet sitter on the first go around.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Greenwood on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,487 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Greenwood. 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 Greenwood 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 Greenwood 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 Greenwood 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
