“Kia did great staying with my dog, Finn. She also toke on answering the door for trick or treaters on Halloween. She sent plenty of photos and texts to keep me apprised on how Finn was doing. I appreciated her responding to a fairly last minute booking which is kind of rare in my experience on Rover. I would definitely use her again as a pet & house sitter.”

“Austin is reliable, caring, and trustworthy. Always dependable, sends daily updates, and is always a pleasure. It gives me such peace of mind to know my pups are so well cared for in my absence.”

“Madison is AMAZING. She is just a great person who took care of my babies and my home just as I would. We have never left our cats alone overnight but circumstances caused the need to be gone for 8 days - to say I was nervous about how the babies were going to be is an understatement. Madison made sure they were taken care of and sent so many pictures and videos and updated us numerous times to let us know how everyone was doing. This is my first experience using Rover and I'm so happy I did. I love my friends, but no way they would have taken care of cats like Madison did. I feel like I can actually travel now as long as Madison is free to take care of everything for me ❤️”

About: Hi! My name is McKayla, I am 25 years old and I have owned animals my whole life! I currently have 4 cats, 2 dogs, and one bearded dragon of my own. I have daily experience with medication for cats and dogs, and daily experience with specifically picky animals of all ages 🥰 I have a Morning part-time job where my hours extend from 4:30 am - 1 pm of not being available besides Sundays. I am more than comfortable with afternoon/evening/overnight sits and watches! If needed, my house is big with a fenced in yard where I can keep clientele animals separate from my own. MY animals are of no threat to others - however from past experience - it is preferred that boarding at my house be a very last option! I prefer to care for peoples animals in their own home to avoid any change of environment to cause anxiety or depression in your animals. In the past, the animals I have had board at my house will refuse to eat, play, or use the restroom. This breaks my heart to see your fur babies experience this, so anything we can work out to avoid will work with me! 💖
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Belen\! She stayed with our fur babies while we were away in NYC for a week, and having her there gave us such peace of mind\. We have three very different pets with their own routines and personalities, including an elderly dog who requires a little extra patience and care\. Belen handled everything beautifully\. She followed all of our instructions, kept everyone happy and well cared for, and treated our babies and our home as if they were her own. Being that far away from home, it meant so much to know that we didn’t have to worry about the animals\. I knew they were safe, comfortable, loved, and in great hands\. We came home to happy fur babies and a home that had been very well cared for. Belen is dependable, trustworthy, kind, and clearly has a genuine love for animals\. I would absolutely trust her with our pets again and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals\. Thank you, Belen, for taking such wonderful care of Ace, Max, and Ponchita while we were off having our NYC adventure\! 🐶🐶🐱❤️ You made it possible for us to enjoy our trip knowing our little crew was safe at home.”

“Danielle was absolutely wonderful! From the moment she arrived we received updates on our 2 pups. She sent photos and let us know when they had eaten, done their business, gone for walks, etc. She handled our senior dogs medication flawlessly, and their special feeding instructions were carried out perfectly. Both our dogs truly enjoyed their time with her, she was a blessing to our family while we were away. 10/10 would recommend Danielle, and will use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10 years old, helping neighbors, family, and friends with their pets. I’m experienced with feeding, scooping litter, giving attention and companionship, and taking care of anything else they may need while their owners are away. I’ve been around all types of cats and genuinely enjoy making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home and very flexible. Would love to bring love and joy to your sweet baby or babies! They are family to me and treat all of them the same I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions or special needs your pet may have. My goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Fantastic! Ashley was super communicative, sent pics throughout her stay, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for. She left the house spotless before leaving. Highly recommend.”

“Melissa did an excellent job watching our fur babies! We took a semi-last minute trip to TN and she stepped in and cared for them like her own. I never had to worry how my babies were doing while I was away, because I knew that they were in good hands!!”

“Hope was a wonderful sitter for my Westie. She stayed overnite for one nite. She was prompt, sent me a picture when she arrived, walked her and fed her. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I used to be a puppy raiser for Southeastern Guide Dogs for 4 years, which made me really skilled on how to handle and train dogs. I used to have a senior dog, so I am familiar on all the complexities that involves. I can do dog walks before work, during lunch, and after work. I can easily board or stay overnight with your pet. I do not work weekends or Fridays so I have all day with your pet. I don't have a fenced yard, but there is a dog park around the corner from my place. I am very good at keeping pets in my control while being loving.

Pet sitting is our main focus right now, so we have real flexibility for full day visits, walks, weekends, and multi day sits, often on short notice.

About: Hello, I’m Lauren, I am a Veterinary medicine student who has owned animals my whole life. I started as a kennel aid at a Veterinary hospital 5 years ago and was promoted to a Veterinary technician 4 years ago, so I am well trained in all aspects of Veterinary care for your pets. I am trained in CPR and know the clinical signs and steps that should be taken when an emergency situation of any kind occurs. I earned my veterinary technician license and associates degree the summer of 2020. I am great with both cats and dogs, and am skilled with seniors, kittens/puppies, as well as special needs pets of all shapes and sizes. I have in-depth training with medication administration for pets who are diabetic, arthritic, any many more. As an owner of an anxious pet myself I am very knowledgeable of the time and care these special pets may require. I have experience with nail trims, bathing and some grooming of both dogs and cats. Part of the experience that I gained as a kennel aid was walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. My life is animals and I would love to be able to help take care of yours. I am a full time student and work part time at rhe animal ER. Thw Er only takes up two of my days during the week, so j have 5 whole days of nothing but homework and petsitting! Thank you for your consideration. I do not bring your pet to my home. In your home I will take care of them to the degree that they are accustomed to. I try to make them as comfortable as possible while you are away.
About: I have 15+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and personalities. As a former AKC conformation and lure coursing competitor, I’m confident handling everything from playful puppies to shy or reactive pets. I share my home with four cats, including rescues, so I understand animals with unique needs. I offer calm, patient, and reliable care—no breed or size restrictions, just a focus on safety, trust, and comfort. Most pets, if asked, would prefer to stay home rather than go to a boarding kennel while you are gone. They are in their own home, eating their familiar food from their regular bowl, playing in their own yard, sleeping on their favorite bed or couch. My goal as a pet sitter is to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe so you can enjoy your time away from home. I visit your home at least twice a day, feeding, checking water bowls, petting and loving, supervising exercise and play time, and handing out treats. I am especially good with senior dogs and have experience getting even difficult dogs to take medications. I also do things like collect mail or newspapers and turn lights on and off so that it looks like someone is around. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time and attend classes two nights a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime visits, walks, and overnight care. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Caring for animals is one of the best parts of my week—it’s grounding, rewarding, and something I truly enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routines. In your home, I follow your feeding, walking, and playtime schedules closely and keep things calm for shy or anxious pets. In my home, animals have a quiet, supervised space, enrichment toys, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s medication, training, or extra snuggles, I tailor care to each pet’s personality and needs.
About: I have been around and had dogs my whole life. I grew up with chow chows but currently raise 2 rescues and a husky. I truly enjoy animals and being outdoors. I follow instructions well and do well under pressure. I am the grandmother of 4 cats and sometimes more, my daughter has a cat distribution problem. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, I can work easily around you and your pets needs to make sure they're as comfortable and anxiety free as possible! Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my highest priorities. When caring for your pets in your space, I treat your home and routine with the utmost respect. I strictly follow all instructions for locking up, managing alarm codes, and handling house keys or lockboxes. On Walks, double-check leashes/harnesses and remain alert to environmental hazards. Doors and gates are always secured behind. You will receive detailed report cards and photo/video updates during every single visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I will keep your emergency contact numbers saved, watch closely for any changes in your pet's behavior or health, and will communicate immediately if any questions arise. I provide drop ins, walking, and house sitting- no overnight stays.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have been working with them since I was a young teenager! Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience at a dog boarding facility, a veterinary clinic, and now full-time at a local animal shelter, caring for pets of all personalities and needs. Through fostering, I became even more familiar with cats, and at home, I share my life with two dogs and three cats. I’ve had several long-standing pet-sitting clients before moving to this area outside of Rover, and I love meeting new pets and building bonds with them. I’m confident administering medications and giving attentive, loving care to make sure your furry friends are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. If your pet has fur, I’ve got it covered! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work full-time, so I’m available for morning check-ins or walks before 8 AM and evening visits after 5 PM. On weekends, I’m wide open and happy to schedule drop-ins or walks based on what works best for you and your pet. I may also be able to accommodate a midday walk or check-in between 12 PM and 2 PM, depending on your location and your pet’s needs. I’m also available on government holidays, and I’m always happy to communicate and find a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and well cared for! I care for every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. I strive to make every interaction safe, fun, and fulfilling for the animal while respecting their individual needs and boundaries. On walks, I stay alert and attentive, ensuring pets remain safe at all times and calmly leaving any situation that makes them seem uncomfortable or stressed. During drop-in visits, I closely observe each pet’s overall well-being, including their behavior, energy level, and routine, and I will promptly report any concerns to the owner. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so pets feel secure and well cared for in their home or while out on walks.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 356 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Madison Crossroads. 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 Madison Crossroads 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 Madison Crossroads 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 Madison Crossroads 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.
