“Lisa was amazing. She provided in-house care and took great care of my pup and was proactively sending me updates and pictures multiple times a day. Made it so easy to relax on my vacation knowing how great of care my pup was in! Would recommend to anyone and will for sure be booking again next time.”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing with my animals. She kept me updated the whole time I was gone which helped ease my anxious mind. Took ChiChi on walks and my scaredy cat even came out to see her. To top it off she even bought ChiChi some special treats! Could not be happier about the experience and will definitely rebook with her! Thanks so much!”
“Courtney iwas absolutely fantastic with not just one dog, but THREE. She was available last minute, and was able to accommodate two extra dogs. She was invested in their safety, followed all instructions to a t, took the dogs on walks, and sent videos and photos to keep me updated. I will definitely be using Courtney again!”
“Paul did an awesome job taking care of our elderly dog. It was difficult to leave her with a new dog sitter (our usual sitter got a new job) but after meeting Paul and seeing that Rheyah was immediately comfortable with him, we felt confident that he would take good care of her. Paul made sure that Rheyah took her medicine multiple times per day, fed her a special diet and even gave her a partial bath every other night to treat her chronic skin condition. He also took her for 2 walks per day when the weather permitted. Paul’s frequent photos and descriptions of what he and Rheyah were doing helped to calm my anxiety about leaving her with someone new. Not only did Paul take care of Rheyah, but he also fed my fish and managed to keep my not-so-healthy plants alive! We are very grateful that Paul’s profile came up on Rover and that he agreed to take care of Rheyah so that we could attend our granddaughter’s 1st birthday. We highly recommend Paul to anyone who needs a conscientious caring pet sitter!”
“Our baby Wrangler absolutely adores Emma & she truly is the best! We could not ask for a more accommodating sitter for our boy and will be booking her again & again :) Thank you Emma! 🐾🤍”
About: I have always been an animal lover. If I could live with just them I sure would! One day I want to have my own cat/kitten rescue shelter. I currently have 3 cats that I spoil! I am working a full time job working 8-4pm Monday-Friday. I am available after 4pm on weekdays and open to any hours on the weekends. I have 3 cats and they are allowed outside if I am with them. I do not leave them outside alone. If I do then bring out their cat tent and they can go in there to relax in the outside weather
“Chantelle did a fantastic job and is extremely nice! Dogs were very happy when we saw them and she ensure the doors were locked and the key was where we agreed. I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve owned cats my whole life, I currently own two of my own. I have dog sat since I was in middle school, so over 10 years. I adore all animals, and look forward to being able to meet yours ! I work full time but am flexible throughout the day, I am completely free after 430 for walking or checking in or staying at your place to make sure your animals are safe and cared for I will follow instructions always to a tee, I make sure your dog or cat is safe and feed and cared for, and loved !
About: I currently work at Hightest kennels part time. I’ve also fostered 14 dogs/puppies for Hightest kennels. I am very good at taking care of dogs at all ages. I also follow your instructions very well. I have taken care of puppies, dogs with disabilities and, senior dogs. I have potted trained many dogs and have been successful every time. I am very patient with animals. I am also going to school to become a veterinary assistant. I am currently working part-time at Hightest kennels I would be able to work after Hightest and on my days off. I usually work 2-3 days a week. I will fit pet care in whenever I am not at work. At my home I have two labs that love being around other animals. I have a fenced in area for my dogs to give them time outside. In a client’s home I want to know if your dog has a routine and keep your pet on their routine. I take my pets out many times a day if they are not in their fenced in area. I can also create my dogs if wanted.
“Courtney was amazing! Absolutely wonderful with all of our fluffies and you can tell they Super care about them. Many sitters just do the bare minimum but Courtney spent time with them, took care of medicine, played with them, etc… and did not just watch TV all day sitting like we have had others do. If you want someone who takes care to help your fluffies feel comfortable while you are away, we recommend Courtney.”
“We had Megan house sit for us for about 5 days. Our dog loved her and she took really good care of him and his puppy energy. She also watered the garden, fed our guinea pig, and left our house spotless. Communication with her wasn't an issue. For our In person meet and greet she used an app with a translator (went real smoothly) and while we were away she was great about texting us updates. Next time we need a house sitter she'll be the first person I reach out to!”
“Awesome job! Would highly recommend. Expert care of our needy, elderly Great Pyrenees, and pure wizardry with our little shepherd who can be tricky unless you’re in her pack.”
About: As far as experience goes there isn’t a time in my life I remember that I wasn’t caring for an animal. From reptiles, to rodents, to cats and dogs, I’ve had them all. From a young age I was taught responsibility and discipline when it came to caring for tiny creatures. Additionally for over two years I volunteered weekly at a local animal shelter. During this time I gained knowledge as to how animals interacted with one another, how to properly administer medication, warning signs to look out for, what to do in emergencies, and deeply studied animal behavior. To add on to that I am currently employed at a doggie daycare. During my time here not only have I gotten to widen my horizons when it came to taking care of animals but I have learned hands on how to bandage a wound, what to do in animal confrontations as well as how to handle the unexpected such as sickness or seizures. Additionally over the last 3 years I have volunteered at different animal welfare programs across the globe. These include Portugal, Puerto Rico, Tanzania and soon Hawaii. During this time I have not only seen hands on other cultures way of taking care of animals but also gained knowledge as to how to better the animal care I provide to clients. As I previously stated I currently am employed at a doggie daycare. Additionally I work at a bakery as well. My schedule changes weekly so it can be hard to give an exact time frame when booking. Typically I work up to 8 hour shifts. I typically prefer to stay in clients homes to keep their pets safe and happy in their own environment. I will be there in the morning before work, and will immediately come back when I get off as well as being there at night. I try to spend as much time as possible with the pets while you are away I typically only offer staying in the clients home and I am comfortable crating animals while gone. I always keep things like medications safely out of reach and secured. Additionally upon booking I typically ask about any health notes, allergies, or special needs as well as a good contact number for your vet in case of emergency.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently care for four dogs and one cat of my own. Caring for multiple pets has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each animal’s unique personality and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to quiet cuddles and sticking to feeding routines, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care. Also, I am comfortable and experienced in handling medication for dogs as one of my dogs at home has diabetes. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I’ll treat yours with the same kindness, respect, and affection that I give my own. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pet. I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred days and times, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both you and your furry friend. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for my own four dogs and one cat, so I’m familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and lots of love. I’ll also respect your pet’s routine, follow any feeding or medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs between the ages of 1-14 [human years] for many family members and neighbors since I was a teen. I have had two labradors and two golden retrievers throughout my lifetime, and have taken care of breeds ranging from Corgi to Vizsla to German Shepherd. I am very family-oriented, and will take care of your pups like they are my own! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to give lots of love and attention to your canine family members. I am a very active individual, and love to incorporate dogs into my routine to satisfy their energetic hearts and souls! I would love to hear about any particular needs, struggles, or enjoyed habits that your dogs may have. I want them to enjoy our time together as much as I will!!
“Stephen and Wipawee watched my dog and my sister’s dog at my house while we went away on a family vacation. The dogs were well cared for, had plenty of attention and were taken great care of! Couldn’t have asked for better sitters.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 3 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals, including cats and dogs, and at one point, our household included five dogs simultaneously. Since the age of ten, I've been responsible for feeding my dogs and taking them outside. When I turned fourteen, I began walking my own dogs and even walked dogs for friends, ranging from 15 to 130 pounds. I am proficient in administering dog medications and knowledgeable about dog behaviors. I'm passionate about understanding each pet's preferences and personality, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with a fun and safe environment. I’m currently working a part-time job, while a full-time college student. I am free currently Saturday-Tuesday. Saturday and Sundays I will be available from 8am till 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Monday I will be available all day starting from 10am and Tuesdays all day after 3pm. I always prioritize your pets well-being and follow your specific instructions for their care. If needed, I can crate your dog and i’ll offer a safe and comfortable environment.
“Jenn was so great with my very spoiled Great Pyrenees at her home Christmas weekend. She was so good at communicating and sending pictures the weekend she was with him. I felt she genuinely cared so much about Koda and us too. I will definitely be contacting her again on our next travels. Thanks again Jenn!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Kohlsville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 438 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kohlsville. 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 Kohlsville 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 Kohlsville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kohlsville 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.
