“I recently visited from out-of-town and Marci stayed in my hotel room with my cannot-be-alone French bulldog, Teddy, while I was out at work events. Marci is friendly, responsible, easy to communicate with, and gave Teddy everything he needed (including cuddles). I know he was comfortable with her because he usually refuses to eat while I'm gone but he ate his dinner with her! She made sure he got his energy out and tinkled too. Marci made my life so much easier-- you can tell she "gets" dogs.”
“It's been a while since Chelsea watched our dog, but when she came for the pre-visit to meet our new cat, our dog was crazy with excitement to see her again! She shared lots of pictures while we were away and our animals seemed perfectly comfortable and at ease with her. Great sitter!”
“Holly took really good care of my puppies and the house. Excellent communication in every aspect. Definitely will be my pet-sitter from now on if she’s available. Thank you so much Holly!”
“Kristin was wonderful with my dog and two cats. I even added two addition cats to her duties and she was great with that. She stayed overnight with them and sent updates throughout her day. I will definitely be calling her again. It was nice knowing my babies were in their own home and happy.”
“Hailey is one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had! She kept us updated both day and night on how our babies were doing while we were out of the country. I’ve never felt more peaceful on a trip, and that was all due to Hailey being the one staying with our pets. She is very thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond in caring for your animals. I would not hesitate to book her again!”
“Lisa did a great job with our pups. She sent messages, videos and pictures daily letting us know how they were doing. She is very responsive messages, always answering very quickly. Definitely recommend Lisa. Your dogs will be in great hands!”
“Mya was great with our pup! I have a very energetic and rowdy Aussie, and she did a great job playing with him and watching him for the weekend while I was gone. She was great about updating me, sending me pictures, and letting me know how everything was going! Thank you Mya!”
About: Been around dogs since I was little and offically took care of them when I was 8. Animals all around have been welcomed into my life whether they have four legs or not. Currently I am not working so it gives me more time to take care and play with your furry friends! I am available almost all hours of the day and can be contacted at anytime if in need of anything! I can easily bathe, clean, feed, brush, refill water for cats along with taking the time to play with them to ensure their daily enrichment for the day. For dogs I can easily help by simply brush, feeding, playing, being put into their crates, or even walking when needed to get their exercise and let them use the bathroom.
“Hannah was a fabulous sitter. She stayed overnight with our girl. Hannah was very communicative and let us know what was going on with our girl. She left us a sweet card and a toy for Kat. We will definitely be using her again”
“Desirae was awesome and my dogs loved her! Not only did she allow me to book her on short notice (only a few days prior), she communicated great, sent lots of pics and videos of my 2 dogs, and followed my directions to the tee. My husband and I will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have been working with dogs since 2018, when I started puppy raising for Southeastern Guide Dogs. After raising a guide dog in training, I began working for Southeastern Guide Dogs as a kennel technician. From there I worked a kennel manager at Love My Dog Daycare. It was during my time at Love My Dog that I got extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages & sizes. I am able to administer shots and medications as well as nail trims and baths. I have been trained in canine CPR & first aid. While I no longer work in pet care full time, I continue to pet sit & foster dogs! I currently work from home in the Wallburg area of Winston Salem. My husband & I own a rural piece of property, with about 3 acres fully fenced in. During the day your pup will have the ability to go in and out as they please (I act as a personal door opener full time as well lol). We have a 16 year old chihuahua, two 7 year old lab mixes, and a 4 year old shepherd mix, as well as a cat who thinks he’s a dog. My dogs are very relaxed and adapt to the energy level of whatever dog is staying with us. If you’ve got a lazy pup - they’ll nap together all day, if they want to play- the pups will keep them busy! When your pup comes to play they will be able to fully be a dog- running around the yard, exploring, splashing in the puppy pool and sniffing to their hearts content! Adding in the care of an additional dog is no problem, as we often foster & dog sit. Outdoors we do have two Nigerian Dwarf goats & six chickens - but they are in a separated section of the yard and your pup will not be able to access them to ensure everyone stays safe. Dogs are allowed on all furniture & there is also a variety of dog beds available to them. We have fresh water available at all times. Your pup will be fed in a separate room from mine to ensure feeding time is a happy time. Your dog will have the ability to go in and out as they please into our fully fenced yard. If you do have a small dog that you would like to stay with us, I will always accompany them outside as a safety precaution - and although my dogs may be big, they absolutely love small dogs. I only host one family at a time so when your dog is here it will only be them & my personal pets. When your pup comes to play they will be able to fully be a dog- running around the yard, exploring, chasing squirrels, and using the world as their playground!
About: I have worked with so many animals over the years and I can guarantee that nothing will surprise me. I will provide thoughtful loving care to any animals, just as I have with my own dog and the countless foster cats that have come through my doors. I have worked professionally with lots of animals at a guest ranch and love animals so much that I wanted to be of service for animals in Forsyth county. I am currently an online college student and in between seasonal jobs, making my schedule open for whatever animal care needs people may require. I can be available any day of the week currently. I make sure any animal is fed/walked/let outside on the schedule provided to me and that the animals are all happy and comfortable. If at any time an animal seems uncomfortable I will attempt to remedy the situation immediately.
About: What sets me apart from others is my energy & love for animals & I have 2 pups of my own! 🐾 who keep me on my toes!! I actually am inbetween jobs & self discovering & I just want to feel like I am helping people still while I figure things out & free pup therapy! Love them like my own — I have been a dog owner my whole life I know the importance of making sure they are comfortable & taken care of
About: Dogs are my favorite, I have not lived a year of my life without a loving pup, I've had all sorts of dogs of varying breeds and sizes and I am very comfortable with any and all dogs! Lap dogs are my favorite, especially the big pups who are just trying to fit in with the small ones. All dogs make me happy, when I see their smiling faces I just remember all of the things that I love about them. If needed I can bathe and brush your dog and at this moment I am working on potty training/ house breaking my 3 month old puppy, named Boone, and i am also comfortable with doing that for you while you're away or at work.
“I can’t even find words for how grateful I am for the care my dog Mazzy received from Alexandra. I came home to a completely relaxed dog who was clearly loved and cuddled and cared for while I was away. Alexandra left my home in beautiful condition and it was so nice to come home to everything neat and tidy. It is maybe even a little more tidy than I had left it. I had put locks on my closet doors because this was my first time using a stay-in rover and I didn’t know how I would feel. But I could have left the locks off. I feel like my dog and my space were truly cared for and respected. I trust her completely and would recommend her to all other pupper parents. She’s a true gem of a human. I’ll feel lucky if we get to use her services again. 10/10 experience!”
“Abby was so down to earth and friendly. Was so attentive and playful with Roxy, I could tell they got along well. Always responsive and attentive to our needs and Roxy’s safety.”
About: I have over 40 years experience with pets. I had my own luxury pet sitting business in Miami, FL before I moved here. I'm reliable, professional and caring. I'm not only here for you pet but for your peace of mind that your pet and home are safe in my hands. I've had birds, a pig, a mini horse, rats, cats and dogs. I specialize in helping ill and/or elderly pets. I'm certified in Pet CPR from the Red Cross. I can administer medications and work with any quirks your pet may have. This is my full time job. I can give my full attention to your pet. Whenever your pet needs me, I can be there for them. Safety is very important to me so I make sure things are put away that could harm your pet. I make sure floors and litters are clean. I make sure food and water is always available and in reach.
About: I have lifelong experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with medical needs. I provide patient, attentive, and loving care while making sure each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personalities are respected. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Currently doing remote college so I’m available for dog & cat house sitting during the days and nights Friday-Monday. I am available for dog walking and drop in visits any day of the week! I would love to hangout with and take care of your babies! 🥰 My priority is maintaining your pet's normal routine in the comfort of their own environment while ensuring your home remains secure and respected. I follow your exact feeding, medication, and bedtime schedules to keep your babies anxiety at zero while you are away. I treat your space with the utmost respect. I will keep your home clean, bring in the mail, water plants, and ensure all doors and windows stay securely locked. I also ensure visits and walks are never rushed. I focus on high-quality engagement, whether that means an energetic neighborhood walk with plenty of sniffing and belly rubs.

Hailey is one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had! She kept us updated both day and night on how our babies were doing while we were out of the country. I’ve never felt more peaceful on a trip, and that was all due to Hailey being the one staying with our pets. She is very thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond in caring for your animals. I would not hesitate to book her again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Guthrie is $59 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $72 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 Guthrie 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 Guthrie 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 Guthrie 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.

- 95% 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.
