âMadison was great with our dogs! She communicated often with updates and sent lots of photos and videos. My boys seemed to have a great time with her which allowed me to relax and enjoy our vacation. Will absolutely book with her again in the future!â
âLenny was very good to my dogs and stayed with them and treated them with kindness and respect. I appreciate her giving me the comfort that I needed to know they were safe and well cared for.â
âAlexias took wonderful care of my cats! She went above and beyond and even took one to the vet. Would highly recommend her to anyone and would request her again if I need them looked after. Thank you, Alexias!â
About: For the last 6 years I have been working as a kennel manager for all size dogs, from Great Danes, Mastiffs to French bulldogs! I am quitting this job and would love to still be able to take care of pets as it is what I love! I do have a female Cane Corso, who would be kept away from your dogs if needed! I have loved pets for as long as I can remember! I can also bathe your pets, feed, and administer medications if needed, but most importantly I will take care and love them as if they were my own!! Currently have open availability to give your dogs the best care and attention they need. I have 1 other dog who enjoys friends. Your dog will always be treated like my own! My dog is pretty free roaming but she is crate trained! I will have an extra crate for your dog if needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I will set up a very large play pen and your dog will never be left unsupervised outside!! My girl is playful, but if your dog is unsure of her, I will crate her while I have your pet, or I will crate and rotate! She is fed 2 times a day, but I would absolutely stick to your feeding schedule!!!
âAshly was literally the best!! We was able to go on vacation and not stress about our fur babies. We got multiple updates and photos daily which I love and the dogs looked so happy. She even took them to the park twice!! We canât say enough good things about Ashly. If you are looking for someone to care and love your fur baby as you do she is your girl!!!â
About: I have had the wonderful opportunity to spend time with many dogs of so many breeds and canât see myself stopping! There such loving animals. Iâm currently working full time and will have plenty of time to play with the Dogs. I can even take them to work with me! I have a wide open back yard and plenty of room for dogs to run. I live on a small farm with a few other animals. Iâm a very trustworthy person. Iâm also a kennel technician/Dog trainer so I spend time with dogs almost every day.
About: I have been a dog lover my entire life. I am known as the dog whisperer. It' is rumored amongst pets of the existence of a dog petter who has the most loving energy. Many dogs only believe it to be legend. It is a real live person. It is me the dog whisperer. I have experience walking, administering meds through mouth and providing exercise and treats. There is no pet to big or small. I love them all. I have a rather flexible schedule due to working online. Only times I am not available when traveling for business as host for a travel group. I care for pets to the instructions of the pet owner. I know most dogs that are properly cared for require a lot of attention and prefer to be in the company of someone. I enjoy the company and love to give quality time to dogs. Such as playing fetch tug a war or long walks.
About: Hi there! Iâve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember and feel especially comfortable caring for large, energetic dogs. Iâve raised my Bernese Mountain Dog from puppyhood and have had him for 8 wonderful years, giving me plenty of experience with the patience, consistency, and care that dogs need at every stage of life. I believe every animal has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to get to know them and build a bond based on trust. I recently adopted a cat, too, so Iâm excited to be growing my experience with feline friends! Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone around to make them feel safe and comfortable, Iâm happy to meet them where they are. Your petâs happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. Iâll treat your furry family member with the same love and care I give my own! I currently work from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM, so Iâm available to care for your pets before and after work! Iâm happy to work with your schedule and provide the attention, exercise, and companionship your pets need throughout the day. Iâm happy to tailor my care to your petâs individual needs, personality, and energy level! Whether that means keeping an energetic pup active with walks and runs, sticking to their feeding routine, engaging in playtime, or simply providing a little extra company, Iâm here to help.

FAQs for House Sitting - Laurelville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 191 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Laurelville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs 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 Laurelville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Laurelville 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 theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs 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 Laurelville 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
