About: I’ve loved and cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. With dogs specifically, I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’ve also administered medications and supported senior pets through end-of-life care. Before changing majors, I studied pre-veterinary medicine, and I have volunteered with several animal rescues. Those experiences strengthened my ability to recognize behavioral cues, respect an animal’s boundaries, and remain calm when a pet needs extra reassurance. Caring for so many different animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, quiet companionship, or a familiar routine while you’re away, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for weekday, weekend, and holiday care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and care in your home. I’ll work with you to understand your pet’s usual schedule and maintain as much consistency as possible while they are in my care. As a pet parent myself, I know how stressful it can be to choose the right person and leave your animals in someone else’s care. Before a booking, I prefer to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, medical needs, and what helps them feel comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and household routines. During walks, I double-check collars and harnesses, keep dogs securely leashed, and remain attentive to our surroundings. During drop-ins and overnight stays, I’m mindful of doors, gates, and other potential escape points. I’ll treat your home with respect and will never bring another person into it without your permission. You’ll receive as many updates, photos, and videos as you’d like, so you always know what your pet is doing and how they are feeling. If I notice any concerning changes in their health or behavior, I’ll contact you promptly.
“Alexis did a wonderful job house sitting for us! All animals (bird, fish, and dog) were all taken care of as well as our home. I highly recommend her! Thank you, Alexis!”

“Morgan took great care of our two 100+ lb mastiffs and elderly 5lb cat over the July 4th weekend. The house was left in perfect shape. The animals were happy, minimally stressed even after a night of fireworks, and had zero complaints. Morgan kept us informed all throughout the booking of the animal's welfare and activities. A++, would book again.”
“We could not have left our dog, Waldo, in better hands than Stacey's! Stacey feels like family and Waldo felt that, too. We're grateful for her photo and video updates and attentive care. We strongly recommend Stacey!!”

“I can’t recommend Hannah enough as a pet sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and takes her job seriously. She was incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring while watching over our pets. Hannah kept us updated daily with messages and photos, so we always felt at ease knowing our furry family members were in good hands. She followed all care instructions perfectly and even went above and beyond with a few extra touches, like bringing in packages. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a spotless house. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy, kind, and thorough. We’ll absolutely be booking with Hannah again!”


“Vanessa did house sitting for five nights watching our 13 year old dog who is deaf, partially blind and has pretty bad arthritis. She did an excellent job! The best part is she kept in constant touch with us sending pictures (via text) of our dog in the morning, during the day and just before bed. This gave me great peace of mind since this was the first time she was watching our dog. Also my old dog doesn't normally eat very well when we are away but Vanessa was very successful getting him to eat. I was so impressed. Another surprise....when we came home she had washed the bed sheets and towel she had used and my house looked spotless. My dog had so much energy when we returned and seemed so calm and happy. What more can you ask for?”

About: I’ve had experience in pet sitting for minimum 10 years. Attention to detail and care for pets needs come first. Restrictions if any are considered as well. Morning, mid day, and evening walks are a must. As well as feeding, as frequent or less as needed. Pets will remain hydrated and have ample play time and relaxation time throughout the day. I offer a fenced yard with a seperate play area inside of home dedicated to pets. There will be ample space inside, or outside of home for pets to flourish and plenty of dog parks available if preferred.
About: I have always been around animals whether they were my own or someone else’s. I have also shadowed at vet clinics and done kenneling briefly at a clinic. I love spending time with pets and taking care of them. I am a college student who is currently studying biology, I then plan to go to vet school. So over the summer and holiday breaks I have plenty of time to care for pets. If they are on a feeding schedule I follow that schedule. I’m also very active myself and love being out side. If it’s nice out I’ll take your animal out to play and walk.
About: I've taken care of a Cane Corse mastiff since I was 7, and I've taken care of French bulldogs since I was 7 as well. I can take care of big dogs or small dogs I currently work part time. I'm able to take your pets on walks, make time for playtime, feeding, and pay plenty attention to your pets. I care for your pets by making they feel safe, comfortable and loved while they're loved ones are away, following there normal feeding schedule and bathrooms schedules, especially on walks or runs.
“Anna is awesome! She did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were away. She was great about texting us updates and photos, and we felt so comfortable that our dog was in great hands. I would definitely book with Anna again and highly recommend working with her!”

“Deborah is fantastic! She is very communicative, trustworthy, loves our fur babies as if they were her own, and genuinely cares for our home. We appreciate Deborah taking care of our two boys and will be repeat customers!!”

“Kylie was awesome! Very communicative and punctual. She took great care of our pup and made sure she recieved the attention she needed. If she's available, you should book with her ASAP!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years now! With lots of experience with senior dogs and animals in need of more attentive care! I am fully available to housesit along with pets! I work a wonky schedule but the animal or persons baby also comes first! I am fully available 7 days a week! I am much more able to give my upmost priority and attention when staying with the animal in their home. I am not able to host animals at the moment. Not until I move. If that was not going on I would absolutely be able to host.

About: Hi! I’m Amy, and I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years. What started as helping friends and family has grown into something I truly love—providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all kinds. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, rabbits, goats, and more. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended pet sitting, I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routine. For dog walking, I’ve been doing it consistently for the past 2 years and understand how important exercise, structure, and safety are. I always make sure your dog gets the attention, activity, and care they deserve. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize keeping them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in good hands. If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, and truly passionate about animals—I’d love to help care for your pets! I am currently working from home and most of the time my schedule is flexible, so my weekends and most of the week is open for whatever your pets may need! We have 3 acres of property so lots of room to run around however our yard is not fenced in. We have four dogs and two of them would be more than happy to be a playmate if needed!
About: Ive taken care of many pets with specialized needs. This includes routine medicine and eye drops for the elderly, frequent belly band changes changes for those with bladder issues, and calming treats for those fearful of storms. Im quick to learn each dogs bathroom tells to avoid any unwanted accidents. I also have fishkeeping experience with 2 freshwater fish tanks at home. So if youre fish needs feeding or water quality checks I can handle that was well. I am currently working a part time internship with flexible hours, which allows me to care for furry babies in my free time! Weekends are typically busy, however with enough notice I can make them work. House rules are always respected, no matter how much a dog wants couch cuddles or if the cat likes the view from on top of the counter.
“Bailee was recommended to us by two of our trusted friends. She was very personable and seemed to care about our dogs. She stayed with them overnight and spent a lot of time with them. We will definitely use her again if she is available.”

About: My love for animals started the day a stray Bassett hound wandered into my garage at the ripe age of 4. Ever since then I have taken in all animals under my care as my own! I love take care of all the furry friends! I have personally owned puppies, big dogs, cats, fish, hedgehogs and gerbils - although not at the same time (could you imagine, yikes) and watched after the same! I have done any and all visits whether it is a quick play date or a longer visit due to vacation! I enjoy building a long term relationship to provide a dependable sitter throughout the year! I have a child in elementary school and work at a high school during the day. If and when an overnight sitter is needed, I assure you I make arrangements prior to accepting to give my 100% to your fur baby! I like to mimic the care the dog has at home to make sure they are most comfortable. In the beginning I expect normal hesitation, so I am patient and playful to earn trust until everyone is comfortable.
About: Every pet is different, and I take the time to truly understand their unique personality, preferences, and needs. My love for animals isn’t just a job — it’s a real passion, and I treat every pet like family. One thing that sets me apart is that I’m home all day and have wide availability.

I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet — feel free to reach out any time! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a very flexible schedule.

Whether it’s early morning drop-ins, midday playtime, or evening feeding, I’m available and fully present.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,912 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Morgantown. 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 Morgantown 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 Morgantown 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 Morgantown 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.

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.
