“Cathy did a great job of watching Ollie for me while I was away at work. She made sure to keep me updated throughout the day with pictures. She also made sure to give him lots of walks and lots of cuddles and kept him happy. She is quick to respond as well which is awesome. I would definitely recommend her for your pup :)”
“Stacey took wonderful care of our senior Boxer, Jingles, while we were away on an international trip. From the moment we met her, we knew Jingles would be in caring and capable hands. Jingles is an older dog with some special needs, including frequent potty breaks and a few age-related quirks, and Stacey handled everything with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. She kept us updated, gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling, and treated Jingles like she was her own. The biggest compliment I can give is that when we got home, Jingles spent the evening and the next morning walking around the house looking for Stacey. It's obvious they formed a special bond during the week, and that says everything about the love and attention Stacey gave her. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Stacey provided and would not hesitate to book her again. If you're looking for someone who will truly care for your pet, I highly recommend Stacey.”
“Arianna was very sweet and responsive. We set up a meet and greet beforehand which was perfect for the pets to meet her. She gave me daily updates on everything and went above and beyond for our pets and our home!”
“Sandy was fantastic with my Bear! He was comfortable and well taken care of while I was away. My place was also well taken care of. I will gladly trust Sandy with Bear again in the future! Clear communication, cute consistent updates, and real peace of mind!”
“Lottie loves Danielle! She provides impeccable communication, lots of pictures, and an abundance of love for your pet. Thank you for another great experience!”
“Found Rosemary to be very reliable in taking care of our pets. She was attentive to our instructions and flexible to unexpected changes. She kept us informed and updated. We really appreciate not having to stress knowing the pets were being taken very good care of while we were away.”
“Emma stayed at our home and took care of all 4 of our dogs for the week. We had 1 emergency with our oldest dog and she handled it just like we requested. We highly recommend Emma for house sitting with multiple dogs.”
“I’m honestly a little apprehensive about writing this review because I’d love to keep Victoria our little secret so she’s always available for my baby! From the moment we met her, it was obvious she genuinely loves animals, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She did everything she said she would do, kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, and made sure we always knew how our baby was doing. The updates weren’t just routine—they showed how much she truly cared, and it was easy to see that our baby was getting lots of love and attention. Knowing our pet was happy and well cared for made it so much easier to relax while we were gone. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and who treats your pet like family, Victoria is exactly that. We’re incredibly grateful for the amazing care she provided, and while part of me hesitates to recommend her because I want to keep her all to ourselves, she absolutely deserves every bit of praise. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Vonna was amazing. She kept me updated on her schedule, showed up when she said she would, and even tracked my flight to make sure my dog was safe in case I got delayed. She was so professional and well-prepared for anything. I really appreciated how thoughtful she was in letting me know how my dog was doing while I was away. I came home to a happy pup and a clean house. I highly recommend Vonna and will definitely be reaching out to her again for future trips.”
“Shayla was absolutely fantastic! She was very open and friendly during our meet and greet; was able to tell my dog loved her immediately! I felt comfortable and informed the whole time I was away. Lots of pictures sent to me of my dog was so sweet to receive! I will definitely be booking with Shayla again! Thanks for taking the BEST care of Sasha 💕”
“She is the BEST! Someone we can trust with our girls and our home without hesitation. One of the best at what they do — you can work with them confidently. We are very happy, and so are our girls. Thank you for everything.”
“Lyndsay was super communicative with me from start to finish. My flight got delayed and offered to stay a few extra hours past what we agreed upon. She sent me pics of my babies throughout the day and the entire weekend. I highly recommend her and trust her with my pups!”
“Payton was awesome! She sent lots of pictures, helped with learning how to walk my dog on a leash, and provided great tips and tricks for training. I will definitely be calling her again.”
“Thank you, Olivia! We felt safe and comfortable leaving you with our little Norma Jean. All seemed to be in great order when we returned and Norma Jean was so glad not to have to go to boarding. Norma Jean, Kamala, and Mark”
“Angie did an outstanding service for us over the long weekend watching puppy & kitty for us. Received videos, pictures and messages. Angie is caring / compassionate; our animals really enjoyed playing and snuggling with her. Definitely will rebook.”
“Dana was amazing! Our pup went on plenty of walks at all hours of the day, and looked extremely comfortable with Dana in charge. Communication was great, house was well taken care of, and most importantly our pup had a great time with her sitter. Overall great experience, would recommend”
“Rebecca was a delight. She arrived on time and sent many photos of our dog, Kita, during her stay. She frequently updated us on how Kita was doing while we were away and gave Kita lots of play time outside and I inside. Great experience. 10/10 Would book again with her!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Keysville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 3,090 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keysville. 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 Keysville 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 Keysville 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 Keysville 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Keysville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
