About: I’ve taken care of animals as far back as I can remember, but most of my dog experience goes back the past few years! I had a golden growing up and she was my soul-dog, and now we have a family german shepherd! I adore every soul I get the pleasure of meeting, and love all dogs with my whole heart. I understand how hard it is to leave your babies with someone, and I promise to treat them with the utmost kindness and care. I’m currently in-between jobs and trying to find my passion. Since I’ve always loved having pets, what better way to find myself than spending more time with them? I’m free almost every day as of right now, and will keep this updated as I go. I can’t care for dogs at my own home unfortunately, as I don’t live alone! I’m good at following instructions and will treat your home with respect.
“Joey and Angie were very kind and easy to work with. Joey was respectful of my home, brought in packages and mail, and kept me updated on the dogs while I was away. Communication was good throughout the stay, and it was clear that Joey cared about the dogs’ well-being. Overall, I appreciated the help and care provided during my trip.”
“Cara was great! From the moment I contacted her she was so quick to respond! So many dog sitters don’t respond that quickly and some don’t respond ever? I was thankful to get Cara to sit with Penelope!! Thank you! 👍❤️😊”
“Cynthia did a great job taking care of our senior dog, Luna. She communicated with us and sent us lots of pictures! She also left our house very clean and helped out with a few extra tasks which was much appreciated! We would recommend Cynthia and plan to use her again in the future! Thank you Cynthia!”
“Courtney was very nice and friendly and very quick to respond during the booking process. She was in frequent contact during our trip and sent plenty of photos. I felt very comfortable that she was taking care of our furballs. The house was very clean when we returned home. I would definitely recommend Courtney for your needs. She was very professional and responsive.”
About: I’ve had five dogs of my own and have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, including my beloved dachshund who was paralyzed and used a wheelchair. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and throughout my life, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, medicate, and love their pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I believe they deserve patience, affection, and individualized attention. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish, so whether your pup prefers “sit” or “siéntate,” they’re in good hands! Paws, kisses, and bilingual wishes! I work full-time, but part of my work is remote, which gives me flexibility and availability to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I understand how important consistency and companionship are for animals, and I do my best to arrange my schedule around their individual needs. I am willing to house sit and stay overnight. When caring for your pets, I follow your instructions closely, maintain their familiar routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay attention to their individual personalities, preferences, and needs, especially when caring for senior pets or those requiring extra assistance. Although I am happy to crate or confine your pet if that is what you feel they need, I will cuddle and spend time with your pet just as if you were home and in town. As a former real estate agent and the owner of my own home construction and remodeling company, I understand just how important it is to respect someone’s home. I’m extremely particular about cleanliness, security, and treating every property with the same care and attention I would give my own. You can trust that both your beloved pets and your home will be treated with the utmost respect, responsibility, and care. I’m also a gardener and am happy to care for your houseplants and greenery while you’re away. I understand that plants need individualized attention, too, and I’ll make sure they receive the proper watering and care. And don’t forget, plants are living beings and our leafy little pets too. Rest assured, they’ll receive the same love and attention and I won’t neglect them.
“Tony was an awesome house sitter and took great care of our fur babies! We were in a pinch when a previous dog sitter cancelled and Tony came through last minute. Throughout the weekend, he sent us pictures and updates. Definitely booking with him again!”

“Ja’Vae was fantastic! She stayed at our house while we were away for a week and watched our dog and cat. She was super communicative, was so patient with our nervous dog, and really respectful of our home. She left everything so tidy. Would definitely book again!”
“Geoff was fantastic with our dog while we were away on a two-week international vacation. Before our trip, he took the time to come to our home for a meet-and-greet, asked thoughtful questions, and made it clear that he wanted to keep her routine as normal and comfortable as possible. He arrived prepared and early on the day we left, which made our departure completely stress-free. We love receiving updates, and Geoff went above and beyond by sending multiple photos each day, along with detailed and entertaining updates about the great time they were having. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. Geoff also took excellent care of our home and left everything clean and exactly as he found it. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend Geoff to anyone looking for a dependable, attentive, caring, and groovy sitter!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Harshaville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,292 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Harshaville. 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 Harshaville 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 Harshaville 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 Harshaville 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
