About: Animal love here. They are family and I’ll love and respect any animal as such. Love all the fur babies! Very flexible for busy schedules. I’m very flexible when it comes to caring for animals and can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I understand that every pet has different needs and schedules, and I’m happy to adjust my day to make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I can provide dependable care while making your pets feel comfortable and at home. I understand that pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while you’re away. I follow each pet’s routine, pay close attention to their individual needs, and treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring and dependable hands.

“Our pugs loved hanging out with Leigh for the day. Leigh sent photos and updates throughout the day and was super flexible with time. Thanks Leigh! Looking forward to booking again.”
About: I’ve always been a fan of animals since a very young age and they tend to like me a lot so I’m hoping that you would give me a chance. I can make time for the animals before or after work, and I will be sure to spend time with them and enrich their lives. I will make sure that your pet feels like a part of the family, and if I am in your home, I will make sure that I treat it with respect.
About: I’ve worked in dog daycare and boarding for six years as well as taking care of my pets. I also have some experience taking care of horses and sheep. I’m generally available weekdays from 11 AM–2 PM, with evening flexibility from 4–6 PM as needed. I’m also available on weekends. I have extensive experience caring for animals of all kinds, beginning in childhood, and I’m committed to providing your pet with attentive, dependable, and compassionate care.
“Kayla was everything I had hoped for! Our Abby is quite fearful of new people and Kayla gave her the space she needed but also never gave up. In two half hour visits she got Abby to go on a walk and during her first overnight Abby allowed Kayla to pet her and give her eyedrops. Success! Kayla is punctual, friendly, and yet also professional. I would absolutely use her again (and again and again). Zero regrets. A thousand smiles. 😊”
About: I have taken care of dogs from a young age such as walking neighbors pups and in the past 2 years overnight sitting dogs. I’m a loving, honest college student looking for extra jobs! I’m currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! My availability is pretty much open all the time! However your pups prefer their daily routine do be I insure I stick to that! I make sure they are as comfortable as possible with a new face around!
“Amber was great and super attentive with my fur babies! She sent tons of photos and updates so I always knew they were being cared for, which provided me with peace of mind so I could enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Great communication and did such a good job with the furry babies. She played with them constantly and they were so happy and healthy when we got home. She also cleaned up before we left which we don’t expect but always appreciate so much. Highly recommend!”
“Catherine was wonderful! It was such a last minute booking, but she responded so quickly. It was a genuine relief to have her come and look after my dog and cat on such short notice. Both my dog and cat are of geriatric age and have differing needs with both having different medical conditions. She listened to our concerns and took our pet care instructions seriously. She comforted my dog who has severe separation anxiety and somehow managed to persuade my cat with princess-like standards to eat her entire can of cat food. Throughout the night, she responded quickly and sent pictures and updates. I would definitely book with her again the next time I am traveling with my pets in the Knoxville or Gatlinburg region.”
“Sydney was amazing with all of my fur babies. The dogs and cats loved her! Even my antisocial cat! She never goes around new people but she showed her face just after a day! They were all taken very good care of and I would definitely use her again!”
About: Hi everyone! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15, and walking dogs since I was 10 years old. I have pet-sat a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and guinea pigs. I also have experience with any age or health status- senior dogs, kittens, medicated pets, etc. In general, I’ve experienced many different circumstances, so I can adjust easily. Animals have been a lifelong interest for me. I was the girl begging my parents for a dog, and I take care of my current roommate’s cat frequently while she’s away. I promise to nourish, entertain, and take care of your pet like they’re my own. I'm currently a college senior, though I only have on-campus classes twice a week. This means I can be present quite often for your pet. 4-6 hours or more between feeding/potty breaks is ideal for me. Besides that, I'm quite flexible. In my college house, we already have a cat, and my family back home has a dog; needless to say, I'm used to caring for pets in my free time. I can only pet-sit at the client's house. Due to my roommates and the cat we have, I'm unable to board a pet. I always keep a close eye on the pet's behavior and ensure they're fed on time every day. If they get into something, I'll clean them up no problem. I also have a list of emergency vets I'm prepared to go to if the client doesn't have a preferred vet of their own. However, my specific care of the pet(s) depends on the client's instructions and preferences.
“Amber was absolutely amazing. I truly can’t say enough good things about her! From the start, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive. It was clear right away that she genuinely cared about making sure Reese was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. While we were away, Amber went above and beyond by sending daily updates, photos, and videos. Seeing Reese so relaxed and clearly living her best life gave us complete peace of mind. On top of that, Amber added thoughtful touches that really stood out. She even offered to water our plants, and we came home to a clean house and fresh flowers. That level of care and attention is rare and so appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with Amber again. She exceeded every expectation, and we’re so grateful to have found her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Greenwood
Caitlin did an amazing job caring for our three fur babies! She made sure all the daily feedings, treats, litter boxes, and everything else were taken care of every day, and she kept us updated the whole time we were away. She also sent pictures, which we really appreciated because it made us feel even more connected and reassured that everyone was doing well. One of the main reasons we decided to book with her was because she was so attentive during the meet and greet. She asked a lot of thoughtful questions and really made it clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she’s looking after. It immediately made us feel confident leaving our pets in her care. At the end of the booking, she even cleaned up and left everything nice and tidy, which was such a thoughtful touch. She also sent a little follow up message afterward, which we really appreciated. Overall, we felt completely comfortable with Caitlin and will 100% be booking with her again in the future!

The average cost of House Sitting in Greenwood is $41 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $46 per night.

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 , 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.
