“Amazing! We are so lucky to know Jacqlyn and work with her. We can go on vacation without any issues knowing she’s got our pup. Bonus: she has a great pup to keep ours company.”
“Once again, we entrusted our energetic pooch, Truman, to Kevin's care, and once again, we couldn't be happier! Kevin's professionalism, patience, and genuine dedication to Truman shone through, just like the first time. Despite Truman's slight behavioral quirks, Kevin expertly managed him, ensuring he received the exercise and attention he needed. Returning home to find Truman relaxed and content speaks volumes about Kevin's dedication and skill as a pet sitter. Regular updates and photos kept us reassured throughout our trip. We wholeheartedly recommend Kevin to anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks, Kevin, for another fantastic experience!”
“Monica is an amazing pet sitter. The dog was happy. The house was clean. She followed all the instructions provided. She was extremely communicative and sent tons of adorable pictures of our dog playing and snuggling. Our dog isn't the easiest and takes a while to warm up to new people. Monica did a great job gaining her trust and making sure they had a good week while we were away. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking with her again.”
“Laura was great with Ruthie. She gave us great and regular updates and even grabbed a couple packages for us that needed to be refrigerated. Will definitely book again!”
About: My name is Tiana Palmer. Born & raised in Baltimore, MD by way of Dallas, TX. I travel back and forth from both areas for work and open to welcoming new clients as the fall/winter season is approaching. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals, especially canines. I have plenty of clients who can vouch that at all times their dog, cat, even a turtle can be trusted in my hands. With my personable spirit and love for the animals I have been recognized by my peers and colleagues on numerous occasions about my enthusiasm and passion for care taking. My availability is pretty open. I’m usually free for walks in the morning til the evening. If it’s overnights I will follow the client’s schedule. I have extensive experience in animal welfare, animal behavior and language. Also, prompt if meds are needed for pet. The schedule such as feedings, walks, baths and etc. that the client has for their animal it will be as followed.
“I appreciated how communicative Erica was, particularly given this first time house sitting our two ridgebacks. I felt confident that she could handle both dogs and gain their respect. One of our dogs takes an oral medication and there was no problem administering it. We will invite Erica back for future house/dog sitting.”
“Lesley was amazing and took care of our anxious pup wonderfully. We had just lost our cat and the pup was a nervous wreck, and Lesley was able to care for her and keep her happy while we were away!”
“Toni is an extremely kind, compassionate and conscientious person. She doted on Honey and spent lots of time with her. She gave 100% making Honey have a great staycation. We were in communication every day, and I loved all the photos and videos. My home was also very neat and clean when I returned. I would definitely have Toni back again”
“Jayne did a great job caring for my cats and dog while I was away for a week. They were happy and my place was left just as I left it (maybe even a little cleaner). I would definitely hire her again.”
“We had the pleasure of entrusting our pets, Moon, our 7-year-old golden retriever, and our two cats, to Nicole for two weeks while we were in France visiting family. Not only did she take care of our precious companions, but she also looked after our apartment. Nicole is a gentle, smiling, very attentive person who adapts easily. She has an exceptional rapport with animals and managed to establish a bond of trust with Moon and our cats from the very first day, as well as with us :). We particularly appreciated receiving regular photos and updates, which allowed us to leave with peace of mind. We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter to take care of their pets and home. A big thank you to Nicole for her dedication and excellent work! We highly recommend her! As far as we're concerned, we've found our gem! Caroline”
“Karachi was great! She watched our exuberant 2 year old, 50 pound dog Luna for a week; she was reliable, dependable, and took great care of our girl. She sent us pics every day and told us how Luna was doing. She went the extra mile to come and meet with Luna before we left so Luna would be more familiar with her. She is very responsive; always answered texts immediately and kept us apprised of things. She was a perfect guest; the house was in immaculate condition when we came home. I would definitely hire her again to watch our dog. Luna seemed happy and she got the walks she needed. Karachi is a mature, poised, caring and dependable dog sitter.”

Allison is the perfect dog sitter! She was wonderful and kind with our dog Blaze, taking him for long walks and taking very good care for him, while also being excellent with communication and looking after our house perfectly. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her. Thanks so much!
Halle watched our Pomeranian over the weekend at our house and she was fantastic. Our dog has anxiety and requires daily medication, which Halle handled well. She did a great job gaining the trust of our little Pom who can be difficult and hide away from strangers when we are out of town. She also left our house cleaner than we left it and was super communicative all weekend with updates and pics! Will definitely have Halle watch her again :)
Rachel housesit and took care of our two young cats for the weekend. It was a short time, but Rachel was terrific. She was great at communication, took lots of cute pictures of the cats, and went the extra mile to do some household chores and clean up. The cats are in great shape. We hope to use her services again!
Alexandra was fantastic! She was incredibly flexible and accommodating on short notice, and we really appreciated how attentive she was to our pets. She sent us lots of pictures and updates to reassure us that everyone was doing well. We especially loved that she even played music for them when she wasn’t there.
Vitality B. Is fantastic pet sitter. He's responsible, dependable, and our kitties love having him around. He sends us updates and we feel very fortunate to find him through Rover. This is our first time using an app to book a pet sitter. And this is our 3rd time having Vitali here at our home. You will have peace of mind if you hire Vitali. And your pets will love him too!!
Jose did a fantastic job watching our 2 dogs, 1 of which is elderly and requires assistance getting up and down the stairs, and the other who is a tripod! From the moment we met Jose, we knew our pups would be in great hands. Jose came over for a meet and greet prior to watching the dogs and was very thorough in asking questions and making sure he understood their routines and specific needs. He was also very sweet and comfortable interacting with the dogs which made us feel at ease. He had no issues with giving either of our dogs different medications, and also had no issues with feeding them their completely different diets. He stayed with them overnight and even let them sleep with him in bed which we know they really appreciated and loved. He gave daily updates and sent photos frequently. There was 1 day that 1 of the dogs had an upset stomach and he was extremely attentive and kept us updated. In addition to being an excellent dog sitter, he also left our house clean and organized. We are so happy with Jose’s work and character, and can’t wait to work with him again in the future! Do not hesitate to book with Jose, even for elderly dogs with special needs!
Annah and Meara stayed at our place with our two dogs while we were on an international trip and could not have been happier with the experience! They were quick with communication and sent us many pictures and updates while we were away. They also took great care of our space and even helped with putting the sheets/towels in the dryer after their stay since we had another sitter coming afterwards. Would absolutely book them again in the future!
Noah was very responsible and communicative while caring for our senior dog. He was understanding of her quirks and we felt comfortable knowing that he was taking care of her. He was also a very tidy and respectful house guest. We would definitely book again with Noah.

FAQs for House Sitting - Martins Additions
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Martins Additions on Rover is $77.7 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 10,680 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Martins Additions. 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 Martins Additions 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 Martins Additions 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 Martins Additions 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.

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.
