“Had a few extra things I needed Wendy to take care of this time, including a diet change and applying medicine into my dog's ear. Wendy jumped right in and took care of these needs (and cleaning out the ear is no easy task, let me tell you), and I felt at ease knowing everything was taken care of.”
“Kat was amazing!! It was our first time leaving our dog, so we were nervous about how it would go. Those fears very quickly flew away, because Kat went above and beyond in so many ways!! We highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. We will definitely use her again!”
“Kristen was AMAZING! Book her now! She went above and beyond while watching our dogs and cats. She provided updates and she sent us pictures throughout her stay. I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Daniel was excellent. Took care of my kitties while I was out of the country for 2 weeks and constantly kept me in the loop and sent me pictures of them daily. Would highly recommend him.”
“What can I say ... we've had very good petsitters before. This is the first time we've had a FABULOUS petsitter! Just WOW! SOOO good with the animals. Outstanding communication. Took excellent care of the house. Great check-ins every day. 5 stars. A+. 10 out of 10. It was wonderful to go away without a care in the world knowing our furry ones were in great hands!”
“Sofia was great. My dog was rescued and I have spent 6+ years with her and she had some special needs. Sofia did amazing and was very kind. Cali was well cared for and very happy. If I need a dogsitter, Sofia will my first call.”
“Abigail is the best! My dog, Dottie, is a very anxious girl and she warmed up to Abigail after only a couple minutes during our meet and greet. She sent pictures the entire time I was away and took such amazing care of Dottie. I would recommend her for any dogs and will definitely have her comeback to take care of my girl the next time I need an overnight sitter.”
About: Hi I am Parker. I am a student with a need to help out pets and their owners. I love to assist whenever I can with neighbors pets. I have had many pets over the years and love pets of all kinds. Every time I pet sit I become friends with every pet I take care of. I hope you will understand what careful love and care I give to every pet I care for. I hope to be your choice in pet love and care. My family had a severely diabetic dog for 7 years and we took great care of her. I love pets so much and try to keep them apart of my family as much as possible. I have pet sit for about 16 years now for animals of all types, from farm animals to house pets. I am a student with lots of availability in mornings, afternoons and evenings. I work a few times a week a week for about an hour and a half at a time. I have plenty of space indoors, but no yard. Close to many parks and walking spots. Lots of great areas for dog walking close by.
About: I have found and taken care of several animals, including cats and dogs since I was young. I've taken special care of dogs ranging from huskies to pitbulls and from cats to rodents. I would love to have the opportunity to help you in whatever way you need for your animals. I will soon be working part time at a hotel. I will be pretty open for whatever is needed in my scheduale. I'm not quite sure what days I'll be fully available but as of right now I'm usually open during the week! I take pretty extensive care of my 2 cats that I own. However , I plan on mostly offering services in my client's home. I pay extreme attention to instructions in the details my clients tell me And I always have the animal's best interest at heart.
“Sara took care of our dogs and several smaller creatures such as fish and geckos while we were away for a week. She did a wonderful job and kept us informed and shared plenty of photos. We couldn't be more pleased with the care she provided.”
“We love when Kensey sits for us! 🐶 she is so patient and sweet with our dogs, who can be quite the handful. She updates us regularly, takes photos, and has left sweet little goody bags for the dogs when we leave. She always goes above and beyond and has a regular customer from us!”
About: Patient, Attentive, Problem Solver, Caring, Love Each Pet Like My Own, Punctual and Consistent, Communicative, Will Understand Each Individual Pet’s Needs, Comfortable Administering Medicine, Fun! My schedule fluctuates throughout the year depending on how many hours I am working and what my classes look like.

Definitely message me about evening bookings within those days so I can check my schedule or work with my other job to accommodate to you! I also have a campus job in the summer, so throughout the week I have short shifts in the morning/early afternoons sometimes, but those are pretty easy to work around. Let me know if you have any questions! I would love to be given a run down of your pets regular daily lifestyle and what I should watch out for or what will help them get comfortable with me! I will follow directions attentively and keep up on whatever schedules you have your little friend on already to make your lives as easy as possible.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hendricksville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hendricksville on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 213 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hendricksville. 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 Hendricksville 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 Hendricksville 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 Hendricksville 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.

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.
