“Paige did a great job of keeping me updated on my fur baby while I was working all day. She made me feel at ease when she sent me lots of photos and kept giving me updates! Thank you!”
“Jillian was great! Super sweet and accommodating even made sure my packages were safe while away. Felt like my pup was left in great hands and didn’t have to worry. She took him on long walks even though it was freezing out! Jillian sent pictures every day which made me feel in the loop!”
“Catarina was amazing with my GSD. She took great care of her, provided tons of updates and followed all our care instructions. We will definitely book with her again.”
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover, and over the past 5 years I've been dog-sitting for family and friends regularly. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, as well as some experience with rescues and puppies. I love taking dogs on long walks on the trails near my house and cuddling up while reading or watching a movie at home! I am a student taking online classes, so during the work week I am available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks during the day. I work in the evenings on the weekend, so I'm only available for overnight boarding and sitting during the week. I live in a quiet area with my parents, one of whom works from home during the week. Our dog passed a few months ago (she was 15!), so we're missing having a companion at home and have lots of love to give. I'm within a 5 minute walk to multiple parks and trails for walks. There is also a large yard, however it isn't fenced, so leashes are a must!
About: I have professional dog-care experience through my current job at a dog daycare, where I care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also volunteered at a humane society and have a B.S. in Biology. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my weekly routine through my work at a dog daycare. I’m available for additional pet care during my days off, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work with owners to find a schedule that fits their pets’ needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’m flexible and happy to follow their normal routine. In my home, I have one small, friendly dog for company, can crate if needed, and have separate spaces available. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs to keep your pet comfortable and happy.
About: I believe every dog has their own personality, needs, and quirks, and I love taking the time to get to know them! As a dog mom to Harlo, my Pomsky, I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pup like family. I'm patient, attentive, and detail-oriented, whether that means keeping up with energetic pups, enjoying slower walks with senior dogs, or giving extra attention to dogs who need a little time to warm up. I work full-time but work from home most days of the week, which gives me flexibility to fit in dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. Pet care is a fun part of my weekly routine, and I enjoy taking breaks to get outside, stay active, and spend time with dogs! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules, make sure they have fresh water, and give them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship.
“Jade took great care of our house and dogs while we went on vacation. She sent us pictures of the dogs and followed the instructions for care that we left for her. She was very communicative and let us know when she was going to arrive. Thank you!”
“We’ve used Brooke several times and can’t recommend her enough! We have 2 dogs and 2 cats and she is great with each of them. The animals love her and we love knowing that they are well cared for while we’re away.”
“Julia was great! She made a last minute out of town trip possible and worry free. Everything was taken care of and clean when we came home. Our pup was happy upon our return. Trustworthy & reliable gal!”
“We loved having Lilly watch our two dogs. She took wonderful care of them and the house, while we were gone for a week. She was thoughtful and the dogs were very happy! We will be using her services again.”
“House sat and watched our 3 dogs while we were gone for 4 days. Provided updates and good communication. Knew the dogs and house were well taken care of and didn’t have to worry while we were gone. Thanks!”
About: I’ve grown up caring for dogs my entire life and have approximately 20 years of hands-on experience. My family has had two dogs, so I’m comfortable with daily feeding, walking, playtime, basic training, and maintaining consistent routines. I’ve also helped family members and friends care for and walk their dogs, giving me experience with different personalities and needs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I am currently working online for school and will have winter break making me available at all times of the day during the week and on the weekends. I am comfortable with walking dogs and letting them out in a fenced community. I will travel and stay at your home, if that is the preference to keep your pet in a familiar environment while you are away to limit the amount of changes!
“Gabby watched Winston (in-house) while my family was away for spring break. Winston is a high drive vizsla and can be quite a shock to people that aren't use to their relentlessness and lack of recognition of personal space. After meeting Gabby we knew Winston would be in good hands though. Gabby sent us updates (including pictures) and was quick to respond when we check-in. If you need someone to watch your pup, we definitely recommend Gabby!”
“Erin has watched my dogs several times over the years and, as always, did a great job communicating, sending photos, and most importantly taking care of my dogs for two weeks. Also left the house in great shape.”
“Autumn is such an amazing dog sitter, I wish I could give her a 10 star rating! She takes such good care of our 2 dogs, so much exercise and love while we are gone. She’s a gift to doggy parents!”
“This is the first time we had an in-home pet sitter and it was a good experience. Justine was a good communicator, gave our dogs and cat lots of attention, and left our home cleaned up. She gave the dogs daily walks, even in light rain, and gave our senior dog his meds twice daily. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Justine again.”
“Rachel did an awesome job. She went above and beyond to care for a somewhat older dog who has arthritis and needs frequent walks. Left the place in great condition and communicated very well. I would highly recommend her to others.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Greenwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 3,359 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
