About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old. My neighbors and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and train their pets. Growing up with two dogs and now having three dogs and two lizards of my own has given me plenty of hands-on experience with different animals. I’m also experienced in administering necessary medications to pets when needed. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Hi! 🐾 I’m a military veteran, stay-at-home mom to five pets, and part-time online college student with a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for animals. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, including feeding, providing fresh water, exercise, playtime, and maintaining clean, comfortable spaces. I’m dependable, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Since I complete my coursework online, I can accommodate a variety of pet-care schedules and routines. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care while ensuring your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention I give my own! ❤️🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. I maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, follow your care instructions closely, and make sure pets have access to fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of attention. I respect each pet’s boundaries, keep a close eye on their behavior, and take precautions to prevent escapes or unsafe situations. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I will always treat your pets with the same care and love I give my own.
About: I’ve been doing this type of work since the very beginning. I started up with Dogvacay in 2009 when they first came out. I was taking care of pups at my house. A few years went by and Rover came out. Not long after that Rover bought out Dogvacay. So then I started working for Rover and sitting pets in the owners homes. I’ve had my account on away for some time to care for my 83 year old mother with dementia I had to focus on her and place my account on away. I did lose her on the day before Thanksgiving. Now I look forward to going back to work and watching my doggies. I look forward to meeting new people and their pups. I love my job cause each pup i watch is different and unique. My job requires I get the trust from the owners but I really need the trust from your pups cause I’ll be spending all my time with them. No need to worry I do take lots of pics and send those to the owners with updates on how the sitting is going and to give u peace of mind so u can enjoy your trip with no worries for they’re in great hands. I’ve cared for all kinds of pups I have watched puppies as young as 12 weeks. Ive watch pups full of energy. Ive watched very big Pups like Great Danes. I’ve watched Senior pups on medication. So I’ve seen it all and I’ve done it all. Ive been here since the very beginning and I’ll be here to the end. This is my job is to take care of your pup while you’re away. Relax your pet is in great hands. I love to play with the pups i love to play fetch with them cause all pups have their own energy and all pups love play. I’ll play so much I try to wear they out but they tend to wear me out. Depending on their age. Puppy energy takes a lot of playing it’s hard to wear a puppy down they just wanna keep playing and that’s why I’m here so they have somebody to play with it’s my job this is what I do. This is what I’ve been doing for the past 17 years. I’ve been an animal lover all my life. I had all the pets u could think of as a young girl except dogs and cats. The older I got I got my first cat and years later my first dog. I loved playing with them when I had them. Currently I’m disabled and I’m not working I live in Greenville with Family and my little doggie Meyka my little 8lb chihuahua and my 10lb Terrier mix which is my baby boy Tristian. My neice and my mom have like 6 cats so it gets funny around here watching the cats taunt the dogs and they goes nuts. I’m also a photographer I take lots of pics and send them to the owners to give them peace of mind that their baby is in great hands so they can focus on their trip with no worries. Watching dogs to me is such a rewarding peaceful job and I’m happy to watch anybodys furrbabies without worry. I believe this is what I was put here to do honestly. I love dogs they can’t argue with u…Lol. I love meeting new people and getting to know their furr baby so much. Anything the dog needs…your pup gets! Oh my furr babies has me on a schedule around 8am they wake me up by licking my face every day cause it’s time to go outside and go potty. I let them outside while I get their breakfast fixed. They eat and then they goes and lays back down about every two hours. I let them both out after they get done eating and they eat twice a day. Sometimes they run thru the mud and I gotta give them a bath.. But right at 7pm she’s wanting her walk. So I put on her harness and we go for our walk around the block while she marks everywhere she loves to smell the grass and flowers . She loves her walks so much. After her walk I fed her dinner most of the time she’s out there eating cat chunchys with them. Animals get jealous too I notice when mom pays attention to her cats and forgets about Meyka & Tristian. I wanna introduce Tristian my new male Terrier Mix he’s 6 weeks got him on October 9,2022. Now Tristian is 3 years old and has so much puppy energy. I need to leash train him for some reason he dont like his leash. Eventually he’ll learn he needs to be on a leash. I love teaching puppies new tricks it is so much fun to teach them a trick. I do make sure that every pup i watch that they eat and go outside and to play with them too. I love my job and that is keeping your puppy happy. Taking pics and sending updates to your phone daily.
“Karina was great!!! She dog/house sat for 5 nights. I could tell she paid attention to all the notes I left her (which was a crazy amount lol) and kept the dogs in their normal routine. It’s been such a relief to find someone we trust to stay at our home with our doggies while we’re away. Highly recommend! 💕”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was kid and I have own dogs since I was in middle school. My family even had 3 dogs at once. I work from home half the week and I am available to watch dogs. I would love to check in on your dogs or have them come hangout with mine during the day. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door that the dogs can use to have access to outside. My dogs love having friends to play with.
About: Hello! My name is DaiMone, I have grown up with dogs all my life. Caring for animals has been one of my motivations to becoming a licensed veterinary technician. I work at an animal clinic as a veterinary assistant.I have experience giving oral medication along with injections.Loving to all shapes and sizes of animals. Love to try to get to know your animal as much as possible. Consciences of your animals behavior and personality.I am very excited to help in any way that I can, and would love for you to reach out to me for assistance. I do have a full time job where I still would be able to come early in the mornings and evenings to visit with your pet. Always triple checking locks, always make sure you know where the pet is before you leave so you know had an actual visible sight on them.
“Chris was awesome. She took wonderful care of our animals and home while we were out of town. She kept us posted with updates and pictures and our cat and dog had a great time with her. I would 100% recommend Chris for animal and house sitting needs.”
About: I've had dogs and cats for 16 years and I'm currently pet free at the moment. I've found myself with a lot of free time lately and I'd like to meet your pets and make sure they are well taken care of. I'm available most days except for evening hours. I'm taking time off work at the moment and would like to offer my time to people that might need a little extra help caring for their furry family members. Please provide detailed instructions so I am able to give your pet the care that they deserve. I will treat them like my own, and that means lots of pets and positive reinforcement!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since a very young age. That be cats, dogs, chickens and more! With the pets either being of my own, family or friends I have been able to also teach their furry friend to learn a trick or two. Besides from having fun you can rely on me to walk, feed, bathe and even distribute your pets medication to them. I am currently going to school but have an open schedule. My schedule is flexible so if your pet needs an early morning walk before 8am or a afternoon snack after 3pm during the week I’m here. Weekends I am available 24/7! I have a fenced yard and two friendly furry friends to keep your pet company! If your pet is needing to be within a crate or closed off area that is also able to be done.
“Kendall was awesome! She was available on short notice and very prompt with her communication. We needed help with our dog as she was recovering from surgery and she was amazing with her. Can't wait to use her again!”
About: Well, most & foremost I transport pets not just dogs/cats across the United States from a person buying it from a pet store or a friend, etc to their destination of choice w/my set price. I also have my certificate in USDA for pets that I’ll upload in pictures. Moving forward I’ve walked dogs, bathe a cat & dog, was a pet sitter for cats/dogs and puppies. Am very good at communicating & reading/following my clients notes when it comes to food time/preparation or anything relatable to your lovable pet. SN: am very good at belly rubs if your animal loves that since that’s an all time favorite thing for puppies or cats period 😁 Am currently self-employed working on my terms so the time needed to cater/care for a client pet is a blessing to me. I prefer weekdays the most but wouldn’t mind a weekend for some pet attention😃 my availability will be open on ALL days unless something comes up unexpectedly but am a reasonable person w/others times/days etc. I currently help/ take care of my sons father female American bully whom I love. She’s very very smart & alert. So therefore, if I welcome/get that opportunity for a new pet into my home for boarding etc pls believe am treating him/her w/all the love possible. Pet toys & pet food isn’t a problem to me either you can provide your own but am very willing and can accommodate as well on my end.
“Alice was amazing! Her communication throughout the day was stellar, she was always swift to respond my texts and sent photos and videos at consistent morning, afternoon evening milestones. All those efforts really allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my little one was in good hands. I will definitely be a regular.”
About: I have had dogs/cats my entire life as well as periods of time with livestock. I have raised puppies, kittens and kid goats from moment of birth. Most recently, with the help of my girlfriend we raised 16 puppies (2 litters) from birth until adoption. I have raised and have experience with dogs, cats, goats, sheep, pigs and cattle. I will care for any animal that doesn't mind me being there. About 2 years ago I was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy in my legs so young dogs that tend to run away wouldn't be a good fit. I am currently not working a traditional job due to peripheral neuropathy diagnosis so I am available literally at anytime and any day. I am also available to be on-call if needed. We have 2 pieces of property, one a neighborhood setting and the other rural. All of our dogs are kept fenced in with room to roam, as well as 24/7 access to food and water.
“I would highly, highly recommend Kristie! She did such an amazing job with our dog Josie, who had just lost her sister a few days before we went away. Kristie made sure that Josie was comforted and had all the extra love and care so she didn't feel lonely. We also received daily pictures and updates so we knew Josie was well taken care of. Having lost a dog before we left, we were uneasy about leaving Josie behind. But Kristie made us feel 100% like Josie was in the best hands and we knew she genuinely cared for her like she was her own. That was very meaningful to us. And, when we returned home, Kristie left a very thoughtful gift for us, which was a plant in memory of the dog we had just lost. I can't say how much that meant to us. Again, highly, highly recommend Kristie!”
“Madelyn did such a good job watching our three pups! She came for a pre meeting and the dogs were excited to see her but calmed down quickly. She will be our repeat sitter when available as the dogs were greatly taken care of.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of family and friends and truly enjoy spending time with them. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I work fully remote, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your dog’s needs throughout the day. Whether you're looking for boarding, drop-in visits, or regular walks, I’d love to help. I live in a house with a large backyard — providing tons of space for exercise and play. Feel free to reach out, I’d be happy to care for your pup!
About: I am a proud parent of a (king shepherd) named Anubis. I have recently lost my Lacey at her young age of 14 due to cancer. When a friend told me about this adorable puppy she was looking to find a home for who was abused and abandoned by the breeders due to him having flaws, I immediately knew I wanted him when she told me that. My friend showed up to my door with a puppy he was 8 months old and about 110lbs! He is now 150lbs and the happiest pup ever. I am able to choose what shift I want to take at my job therefore I am able to spend my days helping people with their fur babies as much as possible. I have a decent sized back yard, plus I will be home with the fur babies to play with them and walk and feed them.
About: I’m a proud dog mom of three and have two beloved dogs watching over me from heaven. I truly love caring for dogs and treat every pup like family.

I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a safe, loving environment where your pup can feel comfortable and cared for. As a dog mom myself, I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, supervised, and comfortable.

The average cost of House Sitting in Hendrix is $66 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $66 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Hendrix 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 Hendrix 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 Hendrix 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hendrix. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
