“Always love using Emily to watch our pup. She is amazing with communication and we can tell she truly loves pet sitting! We have started booking trips around her availability so we can keep getting the best service.”
About: Growing up we had 5 dogs and I’ve never looked back. I have watched friends and family inpets while on vacation, taken them on walks/hikes, and just dropped by to let them out or feed them during the day. I’ll treat your pet like my own while I’m with them and communicate with you plus photos (everyone likes to get a picture of their pet happy) I am currently a stay at home mom whose son is in school. We are looking to make an extra income to support vacations and activities. I currently have open availability as my husband can help with my son. I currently have 3 dogs (2 dachshunds and a boxer mix) at home with a fenced in yard. We do have crates if they need to be put up at all. I am available to come to your house as well to dog sit if needed!
About: As someone who personally has an animal with special needs I understand the kind of care they need! I also have experience working with animals of all ages. Along with working with animals of all ages I have both volunteered and worked at a local Humane Society. Working there entailed feeding, cleaning, and providing medical care to both cats and dogs. As a student who only works a part time job I am back and forth between campus and my house all week. With an older cat I frequently drop by my house throughout the day to check on him. Because of this I would be able to provide the same care to your animals as well. I live in a quiet neighborhood near several large parks. Because of this I will be able to not only walk dogs in my neighborhood but take them to surrounding parks to walk and play! Along with taking dogs out my home is equipped with cat friendly furniture,scratchers and enrichment.
“Stevie stayed in my home with Miley and Parker for four days and took incredible care of both of them. She made sure they received all of their medications, kept me updated with messages and photos, and gave them so much love and attention. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and a house that was just as I left it. Knowing they were so well cared for gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I'll be booking Stevie every chance I get... so get in line! 😊”
About: Your animals are an extension of your family, and they should be treated as such! I am a recent empty nester looking for some fur friends to love on. I have always been a dog mom but lost our last Springer Spaniel, Brody, to old age two years ago. Looking to help another family out with their fur friend on special occasions and overnights. I do not overbook clients. Each family will get individualized attention- no rushing out. If you are on holiday, we can discuss your animals current feeding/bathroom schedule so we can keep them comfortable while you are away. Daily in-home pet care visits are broken down into two (2) 30 minute visits. Each visit includes potty break, fresh food/water (if needed) and playtime. Overnights will be an additional service and you can be add an additional 30 minute visit for an extra $10 on daily checks. At each visit, I will take 2-3 photos of your fur babies and send you an update if you'd like! Every visit will be logged in detail (ie. walked pet, got mail, play visit, feeding and bathroom updates) and left for your records upon completion of services. We can discuss additional request if needed.
“Thank you Charlotte for taking such great care of the boys. Her communication was great with daily updates and photos as well as a fantastic portrait of Goose and Putter. It was so nice to come home and have the boys relaxed and rested rather than strung out and stressed from staying in a kennel. You can tell Charlotte truly loves and cares about animals. We are so happy we found her.”
About: I am very sweet and gentle to many animals, but I also love keeping them active by taking them on walks and playing with them!! I have school every week day, but I get out early enough to be able to visit, walk, watch, and take care of any dogs or cats. I take my dog on walks, cuddle with her, play with her, and love her to death! I love taking her to the dog park as well near my house. When I have pet sat in the past, I value taking the dog on walks and cuddling with them too!
About: I've always had a love for animals especially dogs. I love being outside and taking dogs for walks while giving them the loving care that they deserve. I've had animals since I was a young child so I know what it takes to trust your pet in someone else's hand. I'm a very genuine and sincere person and pets have a good sense of judgement and always have liked me very much. I have a huge passion for physical activity, that would benefit your dog as we would play together. I'm an open book so any questions or concerns, feel free on asking me. Looking forward to meeting you! I am currently working from home for a company that allows for a lot of flexibility, so I have plenty of time for your furry friends! My weekends are always open as well. **I do not provide services of any kind in my own home. For dog walks: I will drive to your house and take your dog for a walk. I will always have training/reward treats on hand if needed. I will also keep water on hand for the dog to access during their walk. For drop in visits: I will drive to your house and spend quality time with your furry friend(s)! I will frequently check their water bowl and make sure it is filled. I will play with your dog inside and/or outside, with whatever toys they prefer. I will especially give your pup lots of love, and you peace of mind!
“Jolie was great! She is super friendly and great with our dogs! We had her stay overnight for a weekend, and recieved pictures of both of our dogs and updates. Would definitely use her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Tay! I’m passionate for providing the best care for your beloved fur babies. I have a reputation for excellent communication skills, reliability, and a sense of responsibility. I’m here to make sure your pets get the love and attention they deserve. A couple years ago I would volunteer every day at TLC animal shelter. This has helped me understand behaviors from animals and has enhanced my caregiving experience. When you entrust your pets to me you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as my own child. I believe in open communication, so you’ll receive regular updates and pictures of your babies while you’re away. Whether it’s ensuring they got their medications, cuddle time, exercise and even potty breaks. I’m committed to keeping up with their day to day routines and keeping them happy! Im currently working a part time job which gives me plenty of time to spend with animals. I live on a small “farm” with a bunch of chickens, dogs, and goats at the moment. Pet care plays a daily roll in my life. Working with animals is a huge passion I have. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play. We also have friendly Puppies that come in and out on a daily to give your dog a friend. I offer grooming and bathing services to keep a clean happy pup. I make sure to give pets a lot of exercise on fun little walks and hikes etc.
“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”
“Jesse is great with our 3 dogs. We have an older dog who he's even had to carry up and down stairs. He's had great communication with us and left the house clean and the dogs are very happy!”
“Madeleine was great! She took care of our 2 dogs for 4 days and nights while we were at Lake Burton for a fishing tournament. She did an awesome job, and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Madeleine and I hope to hire her again in the future.”

About: Over the 10 past years, I have been able to build amazing bonds with my furry clients and their owners. I started pet sitting when I was 14 to show my mom responsibility and that I could take care of a dog on my own (it took 5 years to convince her btw). My mom agreed to it, and my classmate dropped off Leo, a 7 year old Shitzu, at my house and it was the best week of my summer break. Since then, I have cared for puppies as young as 8 weeks to seniors up to 17 years. I have been able to keep loyal and consistent clients because of my trust and honesty, but also because I am able to adapt to each pets different personality and energy. I have experience with all types of dog breeds from chihuahuas to pitbulls and yorkies to labradoodles, as well as cats since 2020! I treat every home with respect and every animal as if they were my own. My main goal is to keep them happy and in their normal routine for meals, walks, and medications, as well as providing peace of mind for owners. Message me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet 🐾 I'm currently in my last year of college and am on campus Monday - Wednesday. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and I'll be looking forward to having new study partners 🐶🐱 I ask about and respect boundaries they have for the home. I keep pets in their routine as close as possible. If a feeding or walk time interferes with a class, I communicate with owners to let them know. I like to ask questions and then schedule a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit.
“Ty did great with our pups!! We have one sassy but sweet schnauzer and a shy cuddle bug of an aussie and he did great with both of them! We came home to a clean house and he watched the dogs closely, sending us updates and keeping in great communication as the weekend went along. We will definitely be booking with Ty again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Murrayville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 862 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Murrayville. 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 Murrayville 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 Murrayville 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 Murrayville 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.
