“Mya is the most beautiful and kind dog sitter I could have hoped for. She’s very professional and extremely polite and was so loving with my little Oakley I am so happy I found her. She is a gem and will be my permanent sitter when needed. My weenie dog loves her!!!!!”
“Ash was so great with our dogs and cat! This was my first time using Rover for pet sitting so I was a little nervous about leaving them, but I quickly realized they were in great hands with Ash. She made sure to give them so much love and attention while we were away and I think they made a new best friend!”

About: When I was a child, I dreamed of becoming a vet. Nature, animals, and being active have always been a part of my life. I became a Fitness Professional who believes health & well-being are fundamental for humans AND for animals. I'm grateful for all LIFE and that shows in the way I embrace energy , the way I love to run & play myself, and that's what I provide to those that are under my care!! Security is a priority, water, food, a warm & comfortable shelter, a place to expand energy & many ways to stimulate interests are all I have to offer to your dog. I'm also patient - which I think is important because we all need time to learn & be understood.
About: I’ve owned dogs since I was 8 years old, ranging from Pitbulls to Doodles. I have experience with training puppies and older dogs, as well as caring for doggies when they’re sick. As a therapist with a flexible schedule, I can fit plenty of time to caring for your pets! I am available at most times during the week, and accommodate changes when needed! When staying at your house, I treat your home with care, keep the space clean, and respect all household rules! Pets will never be left unattended and I will be under consistent supervision, along with potty breaks, walks, and fun play time!

“Ken is amazing!! He took great care of Dixie (and my home) while I was away, and will definitely book him again!!! He's greatly professional and his love of dogs shines through!”
“Kelly came in a very difficult time for us when we had a family emergency. Is answered immediately when we needed her and took great care of our dog and home. Kelly is truly special and I will absolutely use her again. Thank you Kelly!”
“Amaya was great with my dog Maddie, who is a very strong pit bull. I also appreciated her willingness to accommodate my schedule even though it meant arriving early one morning and staying late one night.”
“We are so thankful for Amanda! She took such great care of our elderly dog over the weekend and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, she showed up early, and he even went the extra mile by cleaning the sheets afterwards. Truly wonderful experience. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”
About: Avid Rover user turned sitter. I enjoy being able to use my genuine love for animals and experience to provide proper care, exercise, fun-activities, and company. I have had animals of all shapes and sizes my entire life and am sure I can suit any special need or situation your fur baby may have. At 17 I began training animals, mostly dogs. However, I have also worked with cats, horses and other pets like rabbits, snakes, etc. I have turned my Ranch style home with a double wide fenced yard into a calming doggie sanctuary. The air controlled sunroom and living areas are theirs to explore and relax. Fitted with multiple bedding and sleeping areas indoors and a wading pool and sun beds outdoors, this space is truly a pet paradise. We also work with a certified groomer who provides a wide variety of services during house visits per owner request at an additional charge. Packages and groomer portfolio upon request. I hope you consider me to care for your little loved one and I look forward to becoming your best friend's new best friend. My husband and I usually work from home so there will always be someone with your little ones. Potty breaks are every 2 hours and pups will get at least 2 hours outside a day weather permitting. I will always treat your pet as if it were my own. There's no limit to what I'll do to make sure your pet feels safe and at home. I'll also keep you updated on their status while here with me via photo, video etc. Caring for animals is a part of my daily routine as it is. We were able to find a perfect space that could accommodate as many pups as we’d like! When they’re with us. They’re a part of the family and they live our homesteading routine. As I said, I treat every pet as if it were my own. I have a true love and respect for animals. I ask that owners send their pet with a bed or blanket, toy, or treats that will make them feel at home. I want every owner and pet to be comfortable during their stay with us.

“Stephanie was great with my two dogs! She communicated clearly and I never once had to worry that they were in goods while I was away. I have a high strung working line GSD who insist on lots of play and Stephanie picked up on all her games to keep her entertained inside while it’s too hot outside. Already have another stay planned!”

“Wallace was great with our little circus! We got daily updates and pictures and our dog and two kittens warmed up to him very easily. Wallace had great communication and a strong sense of responsibility. We will definitely be using his services in the future!”
“Jayne stayed at our house with our 2 dogs while we went to visit my sister for a few days. I could tell my girls were in great hands already when she came over for a meet and greet a few weeks before, and I was not disappointed. She was punctual, communicative, and sent plenty of great pics and even a couple of videos. My girls are very anxious during storms, and it happened to be a super stormy couple of days — Jayne was so kind and patient with my scared babies and kept me updated throughout. I could not ask for better peace of mind and will certainly book with her again in the future.”
“Raniyah was absolutely amazing. It’s easy to tell that she is a kind soul as soon as you meet her and our sometimes-nervous animals took to her calm spirit quickly. She left the house just as she found it and followed our instructions exactly. Communication was A+. Our pets could care less that we’re home, which is always a sign of great care! We love Raniyah and hope to hire her again. 5 stars! Two thumbs up!”

FAQs for House Sitting - McWhorter
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,467 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across McWhorter. 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 McWhorter 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 McWhorter 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 McWhorter 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.
