About: I have a 5 year old husky and pitbull mixed dog named xena as well as a 9 year Old cat named Lilly! I was raised around animals (dogs and cats) we would take litters and rehabilitate them until they were ready to go to their forever homes and we would also rescue cats and dogs and rehabilitate them as well! I am looking to be a full time pet care provider! I only have to take care of my dog as well! I look forward to giving you all the assistance and helping as much as I can! I will ask what your preferences are like times they need to go out or feeding times and keep them plenty of company on my visits and make sure they are greatly taken care of.
“Very punctual, communication and timing were excellent and above all else my pup absolutely Loved Gavin! Highly recommend using Gavin for walks/out of town trips requiring a sitter!”
“Brittany was awesome for us and our two pups (one of whom is a bit slow to warm up to new people). Brittany was able to take care of our dogs exactly how they’re used to and was very communicative with us while we were away with messages and pictures! She even toughed out a big snowfall and made sure our pups were all set throughout it. Brittany treated our home with great respect and left things very neat, clean, and tidy. We will definitely be calling her when we need a sitter next!”

“Orlando always takes great care of my dog and my house. He is responsive and sends pictures to let Me know how my boy is doing. He goes the extra mile and strips the bed before leaving I definitely recommend him”
“We usually have family take care of our dogs but being new to the area, we no longer have that option. We weren’t comfortable with leaving our dogs in a kennel so we found Laura. Not only was she affordable, but she came to our place so our dogs can stay where they are comfortable. Laura was great and we loved the updates and pictures. She was even able to accommodate another night stay when we decided to wait a day to come home. Will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
“Marshall was absolutely fantastic with my reactive dog, Hayley! It’s clear he truly cares about animals and takes the responsibility seriously. He was proactive with communication, sending daily photos and updates that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Not only was Hayley happy and relaxed when we returned, but Marshall also left my place just as clean as I had left it! I will definitely be booking him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and tidy sitter!”
“Stephanie was amazing! She sent photos and updates several times a day, brought our pups on lots of walks and clearly made our pets feel so safe and loved! We will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
“John is awesome! My dog Bruno bonded with him immediately and he took great care of him, sending pics and updates every day. And I have to add…when I returned home, my house looked like no one had been there! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember, from bunnies, turtles, fish, dogs and a cat! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and have a deep love and understanding of them. My childhood dog was very reactive because of abuse, so I know to handle an anxious and stressed puppers very well! I also had an older cat for a couple of years, and am regularly watching my friends’ and neighbors’ cats! Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I work part-time in the mornings, which allows me to dedicate my afternoons and evenings to caring for pets. I am available for pet sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care from 3:00 PM onward any day of the week. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and make it a priority to provide them with attention, exercise, companionship, and a consistent routine while their owners are away. When caring for pets in your home, I will focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions carefully, and I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I keep water bowls fresh, clean up after pets, and ensure their environment stays safe and tidy. For dogs, I provide walks and exercise appropriate to their energy level, and for all pets, I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being. I will also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.
“Blair was wonderful. This is the first time using her. ( she lives next door so it was extremely convenient). We've had the puppies for a month, this was the 1st time leaving them. They warmed up to real quick. Followed instructions. Will definitely use her again.”
“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”
“Once again, so thrilled with the care Alissa provided for our two pups so we could feel confident that they were safe and well-loved while we were away. And I think the house was in better shape than when we left! We so appreciate Alissa.”
About: I have had a lot of experience taking care of dogs since I started my own "business" when I was 7, walking and pet-sitting for people around my neighborhood. I had 3 dogs and 3 cats growing up. Recently I'm most often just filling in for family friends on stays away. I have taken care of a handful of senior dogs and have a good understanding of their behaviors. I like to be outside and moving, so I happily will take your dog(s) out or on frequent or long walks. I will be available 7 days of the week, minus miscellaneous appointments and such. I am more than comfortable with overnight stays, walks, and drop ins, and multiple day sitting. My roommate is allergic to dander so I will be unable to bring pets into my home. I take notes very seriously for pets that need that extra care/the specifics. I will happily be able to walk, feed, play, let out and crate dogs as needed.
“One of the best pet sitting experiences we’ve ever had! He was so accommodating and kept us updated with pictures and videos! Boss made a new friend for sure and we will definitely be booking with him again!”
“We had a great experience with Elizabeth! She stayed at our home for a week with our dog and took amazing care of everything. Super knowledgeable, communicative, and kept our place very clean. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend!”
“Cailin was the perfect sitter for our puppy, Wrinkles. She sent numerous photo updates throughout the day & was a great communicator. She treated Wrinkles as though she was her own. We will continue to use Cailin & would recommend her to any other pet parent!”
About: I go beyond basic pet sitting by creating a calm, structured, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs, routines, and personality. With strong communication skills and a dependable, detailed-oriented approach, I keep owners always updated while ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I am available to house sitting any night of the week after 5pm due to my full time 9-5, Monday through Friday job schedule. I am not able to provide in home service or support due to having two dogs of my own and due to rental property rules.

FAQs for House Sitting - Murray Town
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 882 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Murray Town. 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 Murray Town 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 Murray Town 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 Murray Town 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.
