“Amy took very good care of my dog Abby. She sent me several pictures when she was out playing with my dog which was great because it made me feel like she was safe and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Amy”
“Autumn is the best dog sitter! She is so good dealing with high energy dogs who have no concept of personal space, our dogs are always happy after a visit with her! She is great with updates, providing pictures and making us feel very secure as dog owners. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Alexia watched my pers for 2 weeks. They are healthy and happy. I don’t know what she did but my dogs are NOT ANXIOUS. They are calm!! For the very first time they aren’t going crazy when I step foot in the house.”
“Cassie came to walk and feed Stella as planned, and sent regular updates as well as taking out the trash for us and generally checking on the house. Stella was very comfortable!”
“Michael is awesome I well on a trip to north Carolina and was updated daily on my buddy. It was really nice to know that he was WELL!! cared for. I highly recommend him. And Bruno really likes him also!”
“Spencer is fantastic! He took excellent care of our dog, Windell. He was responsible, sent pictures every day and did everything he was supposed to do, and the place was in good order when we returned. I would highly recommend Spencer for the care of your pet. Thanks, Spencer!”
“Penny is a rock star. We left our dog and my daughter’s dog with her at our house over Christmas. My daughter’s dog has a seizure disorder and takes 3 pills twice a day. He hadn’t had a seizure in months, but of course had 3 Grand Mals in one day with Penny. She got in touch with us and handled the situation perfectly, giving him his extra meds and keeping a close watch on him. She even offered to not go to her sister’s house on Christmas so she could keep an eye on Lovund. My dog, who is very quirky, ignored Penny most of the time, but Penny was not fazed but this. June finally approached Penny after we got home, wagging her tail and licking Penny’s hand- June’s stamp of approval! Our house was in good shape when we got home. I felt very comfortable leaving our pups with Penny and would not hesitate to utilize her again.”
“Superlatives aren't enough to describe Metta. We found her to be responsible, courteous, and communicative (which was a huge relief while we were away, missing our pups). We arrived home to find that Metta had brought in our deliveries while we were away, removed temptations away from our chewy puppy, and left everything clean and tidy. Metta even went above and beyond and took proactive care to ensure that our front gate (which broke while we were on our trip) got fixed for all our fellow residents. The best thing, though, was how happy and relaxed (not manic, worried, or rowdy) the pups seemed when we got back. It was apparent that they emjoyed their time with Metta. We look forward to having Metta sit for us in future!”
About: I have been pet sitting professionally for three years. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks and lizards. I am comfortable working with dogs of all sizes from 130+ lb livestock guardian breeds to 5 lb chihuahuas. I have experience working with dogs with behavioral challenges like resource guarding and anxiety. I have over three years of experience with positive reinforcement training and I am currently working on a certification program to become a horse trainer. I would love to keep up your dog's training while you are gone and work with you to support any current training or management plans. I am patient and I love to work with puppies (and kittens) and adolescent dogs. I have 9 years of experience volunteering at a horse barn. I am comfortable working with horses and other livestock animals. I have experience giving oral medication and all the day to day care a horse requires. I am currently pet sitting full time. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate your pet's needs and routine. Let me know how much alone time your pet is comfortable with. I always follow instructions and management plans to the letter. I don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or clarifications as needed. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority.
“Jason is a wonderful house sitter. He took amazing care of our home, our 2 dogs and pet fish. Great communication from start to finish, getting regular photos and check ins really made us feel at ease. I’ve had some nightmare pet sitter experiences in the past, and I’m thrilled to say that is all behind me. My family and I will book trips knowing we have an awesome, trusted person who treats our dogs as his own. We took a 10 day trip to see family and I didn’t spend one second worrying, it was fantastic! Highly recommend and will definitely book again. Thank you Jason!!!”
About: I don't bring any negativity with me to work!! I've had or been around dogs of all ages all my life. I have 3 now. We all know there more our children then our animals! And I will treat them as if they are my own "children" I am free all day Monday through Friday from 8am to 4pm It will give me something to do while my husband is at work! While in your home or with your fur baby I will follow all rules and instructions, I don't bring or create drama! I will always keep as close to your time line as possible.
“Valerie was incredible! We have two spoiled pugs and one of them is not well mannered, barks non stop and has separation anxiety/issues. He is great with his parents but we were very concerned with having someone else watch him for 2 days. She was very patient and understanding of his needs, very punctual and communicative. We got update pictures and texts and the house was left perfectly. Would definitely rebook if we ever had another event we could not have our pups. And absolutely would recommend!! 11/10”
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. Because I work from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, allowing me to offer unmatched attentiveness and flexible scheduling throughout the day. Being steps away at all times means I am always available to maintain strict medication timelines, monitor health cues, and provide companionship whenever it's needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! When caring for your pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their familiar routine, comfort, and security while ensuring they remain safely inside. Because my own fur babies are inside-only apartment pets, I am naturally vigilant about home safety, secure entryways, and preventing any accidental escapes. I focus on replicating their exact daily schedules, from precise feeding and medication times to their preferred play and rest windows. By providing dedicated, one-on-one attention in the environment where they feel most confident, I ensure they receive both the physical care and the comforting companionship they need to feel completely relaxed and happy while you are away.
“Adam has been very responsive and thorough with his communication. He’s been very attentive for shadow and all of her needs. I would recommend Adam to anyone looking for a personal touch for their pets while out of town.”
About: I have two boys of my own, and I’ve had both of them since they were puppies. My youngest is 7 and my oldest is 13, so I have over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs through different stages of their lives. I potty trained both of them and learned how important patience, consistency, and understanding are when raising a dog. What makes my experience unique is that I’ve learned to understand dogs beyond just their basic needs. Every dog has a different personality and their own way of communicating, and I take the time to understand what makes each one comfortable, happy, and feel cared for. I know dogs are an important part of your family, just like mine are to me. So allow me to be of service and help you and your family whenever you need it. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, attention, and care that I give my own. My part-time job gives me a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m available for mornings, afternoons, and even evenings. I can work around your schedule and do my best to be there whenever you and your pup need me! In my household, pets are forever the babies of the family, no matter how old they are, how slowly they walk, or how big they may be. I care for every pet in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, whether they’re in my home or yours. I follow your pet’s usual routine, provide plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, and a clean space. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or care needs so your pet feels relaxed and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been involved in pet care since I was young, but over the past four years I have become especially involved in the care of senior pets. I work full time during the weekdays 8:30-6pm so my availability is limited towards the weekends but can be available after 6:45pm typically. I will occasionally work on Saturday's, but only until 1PM so I will be available for pet care Saturday afternoons & Sunday. If you need my assistance during the weekday just be aware I am available late afternoon. I am comfortable doing whatever kind of care needs to happen in your home. I can walk your animals around your neighborhood, let them outside into your yard if desired and retrieve them when it’s time to go back inside.

Gabrielle was wonderful and took great care of our pup while we were away for a long weekend. She was a great communicator, treated our home with care and sent daily updates. We were so appreciative of her help and would definitely use her pet sitting services again in the future!
Wendy was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was very caring and understanding about our anxiety ridden dog. She was available on such short notice when our plans changed last minute for our upcoming vacation. Kaylee surprised all of us by warming up to Wendy almost immediately at the meet and greet we did and from what it sounds like, happy to see Wendy and her little pup Honeypie show up on the first day. She sent pictures throughout our trip and was great at sending us updates. We will definitely be booking with Wendy again on any future trips we take! Hopefully well in advance next time 😉
Joseph was kind, communicative, and clearly cared about my pets. He provided regular photo updates throughout my trip, which gave me peace of mind, and his rates were very reasonable. My pets seemed calm and comfortable around him, which speaks highly of how he interacted with them. There were a couple of areas where clearer communication would have helped. I had shared that my dog shouldn’t be left alone for more than 8 hours, but there was a day she was alone longer than that due to a change in plans. I wasn’t aware ahead of time, and with earlier notice I would have been able to arrange additional support. Similarly, on the first day, the arrival time shifted from the expected 8am to closer to 11am without prior notice, which made it difficult to adjust plans on my end. Overall, Joseph is kind, affordable, and attentive with animals. With more proactive communication around schedule changes, he could provide an even better experience.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Johansons Corner is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $214 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Johansons Corner 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 Johansons Corner 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 Johansons Corner 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 Johansons Corner. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
