“She gave me the best updates about my boys! I was also worried about my flight getting canceled and she offered to come back and stay the night if it did get cancelled! Absolutely would recommend her!”
“First time using rover. Was very satisfied, Richard responded to all communication in a very timely manner, sent pictures and did everything I asked. Would not hesitate to use him again. Thank you Richard!”
“Natalie took great care of our 2 pugs while we were on our honeymoon for 8 days! Pugs were super happy when we got home and the apartment was left very clean. Loved the daily updates and would definitely recommend!”
“She was amazing, was able to book her last minute and she was very good with communication. She sent photos and videos while she was over watching our dog and even left a note! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again!”
“Heather was absolutely amazing! With a senior dog with some medical issues we had her come stay in our house while we were away. She followed all instructions and gave us a daily update of cuteness with a picture. All of the dogs meds were administered and he got a daily walk. I would absolutely recommend Heather to others.”
“Katelyn did a great job watching our animals, and I was happy that our shy Great Dane warmed up to her. I like Katelyn’s honesty and conscientious attitude. Thank you Katelyn!”
“Enjoyed having Milica take care of Lexi overnight in our home. She’s conscientious and got on well with Lexi and her communication was very consistent and helpful.”
“Absolutely amazing! Nikki surpassed every hope I had for a dog sitter. My dog Charlie was absolutely the happiest dog. She sent pictures and videos and he was so well taken care of. I will would recommend her to absolutely everyone”
“Molly was wonderful with our 75lb Golden Retriever. She stayed in our house with him for a week and sent pictures and updates daily. We also returned to a nice and clean home. Thanks Molly!”
“Abby was wonderful! Both of my dogs were exceptionally cared for. She kept me up-to-date while she was house sitting. She exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Abby for your pet sitting needs!”
“Gabriella took very good care of Poppy while we were out of town for a few days! Very good communication. Super easy to schedule an initial meet and greet. Poppy loved Gabriella’s vibe from the start. Thank you!!”
“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”
About: Tam is an experienced pet parent and sitter who is familiar with caring for young and elder pets who may need special care and/or medications. I myself have five dogs, all of whom have medical needs, two house kitties, and two house bunnies. I am lucky enough to have a spouse who is able to care for my Squad while I am able to help care for yours. I currently work full-time Monday - Friday and I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. I am available to care for pets throughout the week and weekends, as long as he/she is able to be along on T, W, R until I return home in the early evening. I am unable to care for pets in my own home due to having my own pets who do not always interact well with strangers.
“David did a great job with Roxy. He was very careful with all the details of her care, sent pictures and emails regularly, and was very resourceful when he unexpectedly got snowed in! Thank you!”
“Absolutely great - everyone was happy and relaxed when we got home, outdoor plants were watered, and our boy cat was not in a sulk. House was spotless, communication was great, I hate writing this review because everyone is going to book him up and we won't be able to.”
“Cam went above and beyond to comfort our dog during 4th of July fireworks! Our dog was well taken care of, and clearly felt comfortable with Cam.”
“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Ingram is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ingram
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Mamie took such great care of our dogs while we were away, especially during the storms and Fourth of July fireworks, which can be stressful for them. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and attentive hands. She was incredibly communicative, sending regular check-ins and lots of photos, which we truly appreciated. Seeing our pups happy and comfortable made it so much easier to relax while we were away. Highly recommend!
Responsible, kind, conscientious, and thorough! Jeremy took wonderful care of our dog, 3 cats, and bunny with overnight stays while our family vacationed at the beach. I knew he was going to be the perfect fit for us at the meet and greet, he asked detailed and thoughtful questions about each pet, seemed genuinely interested in getting to know them, and requested that we leave care instructions for each. Jeremy’s communication was top notch- he sent regular updates and photos of the pets. Also, during his stay, there were extreme heat conditions and he worked with me on a plan to keep the bunny cool by moving him downstairs -it was a lot of work and he was quick and efficient and even put the bunny back in his original location when the temps returned to normal. We are so happy to have found a reliable pet sitter we can trust and will certainly be booking him again for future trips.
Kasey and Alyssa were the best dog sitters I could ever ask for! They checked in, sent daily photos, and were willing to stay an extra night when flight back looked like it might not be making it back. I knew my dog was in good hands with them and I would 100% rebook them!
Madison was absolutely amazing with our dog Tato! She was very communicative the entire time from before the booking to during and on our way home. She completely catered to our his needs and made us feel very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her! I already booked with her again!
Chelsea took care of our dog and two cats recently and did an amazing job. She really goes above and beyond and I will definitely ask Chelsea to help out again. Our animals have unique needs and Chelsea was able to do it all, the animals also had a great time with her!
Hannah did a fantastic job taking care of our Boston Terrier and our house (and plants!) while we were gone for two weeks. She kept us informed everyday. He gets very anxious on walks, but she even got him out for a couple walks and gave us some tips on how to make walks more enjoyable for him. We would definitely recommend Hannah!
Victoria was so helpful!! She sent so many updates and was extremely honest about her updates. Our kitties are extremely anxious to strangers and usually take some time to start to eat around them. She was so patient with our kitties and made them feel safe enough to eat around her! She was super adaptable to any new info we gave (tips and tricks to manage our kitties) and she didn’t mind it at all. I felt comfortable being able to ask her questions as well if I needed to and suggest things (which she took initiative immediately!) I’m so happy to have chosen her and will definitely choose her again in the future:)! Thanks again Victoria :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Ingram
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ingram on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,500 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ingram. 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 Ingram 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 Ingram 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 Ingram 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 92% 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.
