“Annabella is so sweet and great with our two dogs! We had delays in our flights and she stayed even later than we booked her for, which helped us out immensely. We will definitely continue using her for all of our dog and house sitting needs in the future!”
“Cassie does a great job with our elderly cat. She also was GREAT with my daughter's rescue cat who can be unpredictable, especially with new people! Both cats were happy campers when we returned home!”
“Amanda took great care of our dogs while we were on vacation. She sent regular updates and responded quickly to comments. We came back to happy dogs and a great looking house! We are so pleased with her care.”
“Charity did an excellent job caring for our dog and cat while we were away on vacation. She followed all of our instructions and left the house in great shape which was so nice to come home to! Will be booking again!”
“Brooke was fantastic with our two large dogs! One of our dogs ended up getting sick, and Brooke was quick to notify us, and did an awesome job caring for our fur baby and our home. Will definitely request her again!”
“Tara was amazing! She followed instructions perfectly and exceeded my expectations. I got tons of photos of my happy girl while I was out of town and we will absolutely be rebooking with her. Thanks again Tara!”
“My girl's sitter fell through last minute and Amelia came to the rescue! She was quick to respond and was happy to come over and hang out with Raya through the weekend. Raya's pretty easy to care for but she does get a little anxious around new dogs so it was great to know that she was in good hands. Amelia sent me updates and generally kept me assured that my girl was safe and happy - even cuddling through a big storm. Thanks!”
“Stacie was great with our pups. She provided regular updates and made sure Bella was as comfortable as possible during a heavy rain storm. Would definitely recommend Stacie.”
“Jemima was a fantastic sitter! She stayed in our home and took great care of our dogs. Our puppy is a stubborn eater and she worked with him to make sure he ate enough throughout the day. Along with sending daily updates and photos, she also provided extra patience with our older dog who is skittish on night time walks. It was easy for us to relax on our trip knowing our dogs were safe and well cared for. Would absolutely book with her again!”
“Simone was so amazing! She was so communicative, and kept me updated throughout the trip. She cleaned the house and was so sweet to my Flynn! She sent consistent pictures everyday, which I loved. Would absolutely recommend her!”
“BEST SITTER EVER! I truly cannot recommend Sarah enough. We adopted our dog 2 years ago and she struggles with separation anxiety, reactivity, and just nervousness in general. Sarah was the PERFECT temperament for Ruthie - so warm, gentle, and let Ruthie come to her. Sarah kept us updated multiple times throughout the day with photos, administered Ruthie's daily meds with care, and even sent us a video of the house before she left. I felt SO at peace know Ruthie was in such good hands with Sarah. BOOK HER!”
About: I have always had pets in the home. I have watched a lot of animals over the years & I even make sure the family comes back to a clean home. You wont even know I was there. I currently only work part time from 8 AM - 2 PM so there is plenty of time to play with the dogs/cats. I don't do much on the weekends so I would be at the house most of the time! I live with 2 dogs myself now & I love to cuddle with them & play. I currently do not watch dogs in my own home but would love to come to yours. This also helps so the dogs/cats are comfortable in their own space.
“Madelyn was communicative, giving daily updates about River while I was gone. She took her on lots of walks and it seems my dog really got comfortable with her and cuddled a lot. I also came home to a clean house and she was respectful of my space while she was there! I am excited to use Madelyn again in the future.”
“Claire is a wonderful petsitter for our 1.5 year old golden retriever. She’s very personable to work with, considerate in her communications and highly conscientious about our pup’s needs, schedules and preferences. Both our pup and our home were well cared for while we were away.”
“Shelly was amazing house sitting for my 2 cats and dog! She sent me daily pics and updates. She is a true animal lover and really takes extra care and attention in caring for them! We felt very comfortable in knowing our pets were being well taken care of! We feel lucky we found her!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Hendersonville is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hendersonville
After meeting Shelly for the first time I had a great deal of confidence in leaving my home and my precious baby boy in her hands! She has loaded me up with great photos and videos while I've been away and taken excellent care of everything in this sweltering heat. He looks very relaxed and content in the photos she is sending and I'm so grateful to have met Shelly.
Chloe was amazing with Harley during her stay! She took great care of her and made sure Harley was comfortable and well looked after. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates that gave me peace of mind. I would definitely book with Chloe again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.

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 Hendersonville 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 Hendersonville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hendersonville 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.
