“The best, she was patient and thoughtful with our skittish dog. I know the three received the best care. And because she was worried that we wouldn't make it back soon enough, she made an extra trip to let them out again. Definitely a wonderful dog sitter and person.”
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including owning multiple dogs of my own and helping care for neighbors’ dogs. I currently have three dogs and understand how important routines, attention, and communication are for both pets and owners. I treat every dog like my own and pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, and any pet care needed throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in their home. I provide attentive care, maintain cleanliness, and communicate with updates so owners feel at ease.
“Heather was amazing! She was very communicative and kept us updated on the dogs throughout the day. She's also very patient with more reserved/shy dogs like our senior dog. We highly recommend her.”
“Martika handled my needy huskies well, particularly my younger rescue with more challenging counter-swiping habits! It was nice to know they were in good hands while I was out of the country for almost two weeks!”
“Grayson was a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive while coordinating this booking and during the actual stay. Our dog seemed well cared for and happy upon our return and Grayson sent updates while we were away. We plan on using Grayson in the future and would recommend him!”

“Jen was awesome!! She house sat for 5 days and followed the schedule I left for my two fur babies. Both dogs are large dogs and she walked them every day without hesitation! They were happy and very well taken care of. I was able to relax and not worry because Jen would send text and pictures daily letting me know what was going on. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks Jen!”

“So glad we found Kristen G! It was the first time we’ve left our beagle rescue overnight and we were anxious about how she might handle us being gone. We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kristen. She’s the best and sent us pictures daily to put us at ease. Lucky loved her and all the attention she received. I’m not sure she missed us at all! We’ll definitely be calling on Kristen again! ??”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, taking care of my own, neighbors, family's, and friends. I started dog sitting for clients last summer. I also have taken many camps and classes on dog training. My own animals have had their fair share of health problems so I am very experienced in administering medications.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. I have experience with dogs, cats, bearded dragons, and fish. I currently have a labradoodle, a cat, & a 2.5 year old son. I work from home, so I am able to tend to animals as much as I need to. My pets are my family, so cuddling on furniture is fine with me! I work from home with lenient hours, so I am able to tend to animals during the entire day. I do have meetings and occasional phone calls, so I would prefer dogs that are not prone to barking, but I understand they’re still dogs & it happens :) I have a friendly & playful 6 year old female labradoodle. She loves to play fetch and be chased. I also have a 2.5 year old son that loves to throw the ball for dogs.
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing while we were gone. She took care of our Velcro needs Goldens and treated them as if they were her own. She shared updates to include pictures daily. She also cleaned up the house prior to our arrival. We will definitely use her again in the near future.”
“Shelly was excellent! We really appreciated the updates we received and some tips about our pets that we are going to try! Her communication with us really gave us peace of mind and was special that we got to see how happy our pets were every day.”
“Kimberly was amazing! I had her watch my 2 pups while I was on vacation, and was nervous because I’ve never used rover before. She kept me updated the entire time I was away, spent a lot of time with my dogs, and sent many pictures! I was relieved to have someone that truly cares watch them. She also went above and beyond, and made sure my house and sheets were clean for me when I got back. Would 100% recommended her to anyone”
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. My mom breeds Maine Coons, so I’ve helped care for kittens and adult cats by feeding, cleaning up after them, socializing them, and making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I also had a dog of my own, so I’m familiar with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and excited to provide a safe, loving environment for your furry family members. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I’ll communicate with you to make sure their routine stays as normal and stress free as possible. I’ll care for your pets in their familiar environment, following their usual routine and any instructions you provide. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like my own while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I was raised around them from the time I was 5 years old and started learning how to care for the animals around me. I have a Husky of my own that is my bestest friend and a big baby that is super spoiled. I would love to make your pet feel just as loved with me as they are with you! I work from home so I would be able to provide optimal care for your fur baby. I also have completed vet assistant school and have worked as a volunteer at the humane society multiple times throughout my life. I am currently working remotely so I am able to take care of your pets really whenever. I am pretty open to any schedule that you may have!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, I also have a 4 month old husky puppy to keep them company that is extremely friendly and loves to play.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! From goats to bearded dragons I’ve cared for everything! I’ve helped raise puppies into adulthood throughout my entire life. Here recently I’ve started taking out fur babies for thirty minutes to an hour for potty breaks and walks! I’ve also started doing overnight visits! I currently do have a full time job but I don’t go in until later in the day typically my work day starts between 12-2 PM and ends at 8 PM this is on the weekdays. On the weekends I have shorter half days where I go in at either 9-10 AM and leave work at 6 PM, sometimes earlier depending on the scheduling. So any time before or after that time frame I am available for all your pet needs, including overnight care taking. I follow every instruction given to me by pet owners. If the pet needs to be on a leash I insure that they are walked and taken outside on one. I also be sure to ask for any allergies a fur baby might have that way I don’t accidentally give them a treat they’re allergic to! I also make sure they are in my eye sight at all times to ensure their safety from their surroundings. Another thing I love to do is send update photos and videos to the owners showing how much fun their babies are having!
About: Since I graduated college I worked as a zookeeper as my career for over 12 years. While working at different zoos caring for animals I also worked as a veterinary technician. In addition to that I have always had my own fur babies at home and love taking care of them. I would love to help take care of your fur babies all shapes and sizes. I work part time hours and have the summers off so I am available all weekends and afternoons as well as some mornings depending on the days I am very familiar with different breeds of dogs and that they all have specific needs that are all just as important as the next dog. I also understand how different cats can be and that they might want attention or they might want to be left alone.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greenwood
Heather did a fantastic job house- and dog-sitting for us over a long weekend. Our dogs were well taken care of, happy, and relaxed when we came home. She sent several pictures while we were away, which gave us great peace of mind. Heather followed all care instructions perfectly, including giving medication as needed. She left the house spotless — everything was clean and in great shape. She was also super easy to schedule with and communicate with throughout. We’d definitely have her sit for us again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Greenwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Greenwood on Rover is $29.97 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 110 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
