“So thankful to have found Jane!! She gave our Piper such good care while we were away. She provided updates and left our house wonderfully!! So nice our pup could stay in her house and be so lovingly cared for!! We will definitely ask her again and would highly recommend!! thank you Jane!”
“We were leaving our rescue chihuahua for the first time and of course very worried. Chrissy was so great with him that he became her buddy right beside her like he is with us! It felt so good to know with all his walks and care he was doing great. Now we feel we can travel and he will be happy!”
“Rachel was fantastic with Wally! It was the longest time I’ve been away, and also out of the country, and she took excellent care of him. Loved all the photos and videos!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals and have been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, fish, and other animals has given me a strong understanding of their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. As an experienced pet sitter, I understand how important it is to provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, maintaining routines, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and personality to ensure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. I am currently in online college working towards a degree in environmental science. Pet sitting is a good way for me to stay focused on school while still be able to work. In addition to caring for pets, I take pride in being clean, organized, and reliable. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your space with the utmost respect and ensure it is clean and tidy when you return.
“Abby was great during our 9 day vacation. We were worried leaving them with someone else for the first time but she sent videos and pictures, and even gave them a bath! The Pups were sad to see her leave so I know they had a great time too. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Abby!”
“Amelia stayed in our home and looked after our geriatric small dog recently. (This was our first experience with Rover). On a previous trip when she’d been boarded, our dog hadn’t eaten and had lost several lbs, so we needed help. Amelia was perfect! My dog was able to stay home with no change to her routine. I received pics, texts and had an stress-less trip thanks to Amelia!”
“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!”
About: I know how it feels to have a crazy schedule but still want the best for your dog, and I’m happy to help provide any services you might need! I have over 12 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, and am here to offer your pet the exercise, companionship, and fun it deserves. Whether it’s a brisk walk around the neighborhood or playing fetch in the backyard, I’m committed to making every outing enjoyable and safe. As a medical student, I strive to bring the same level of care and responsibility to pets that I do to patients. I also have a soft spot for cats, and have plenty of experience caring for cats of all ages! My schedule changes frequently, so please message me for specifics! I am currently available on weekends, weekday late afternoons and evenings for drop ins or walks, and available to house sit as needed. I provide attentive, reliable care in your home, keeping your pet’s routine consistent with regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also send frequent updates and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“Katie was fantastic!!! She was great with our dog Brady and he just loved her! She took him on walks every day and kept us updated (with pictures) while we were on our vacation... She looked after things at the house and left it as if she'd never been here! We've been home for a day now and Brady keeps looking for her to come back... We would recommend Katie highly to anyone looking for a house or dog sitter, or both... We will definitely plan to use her again and I'm sure that Brady can't wait!! 5 stars and A+++”
About: I am a major animal lover! I love all animals big and small and I will responsibly take care of them and love them for you when you aren't able to! This is the only work I do, so I have plenty of time to love, take care and spoil your fur babies when you can't. We are a family of animal lovers and with a large fenced in yard in a safe neighborhood and three fur babies that get along well with other dogs.
“Mab was amazing! She was great with our dog. She was patient and took care of all of Hurley’s needs. Amazing house guest as well. We would definitely have Mab again. Hurley enjoyed Mab’s company and it was overall a wonderful experience.”
“Lyndsay did a fabulous job making Finley comfortable and happy while we were gone. It was a last minute request and she was very communicative. I will request her again!”
“Bella was absolutely fantastic while watching my dog, Lola, at our house for four days. She sent daily updates and some wonderful pictures, which gave me total peace of mind and allowed me to fully relax on my trip. I came home to a very happy dog and a perfectly cared-for home. I highly recommend Bella to anyone looking for a top-notch, reliable pet sitter!”
“Trinity was an absolute gem! I came home from my trip to 3 happy pups, and she constantly sent pictures and kept me in the loop with texts while I was away. She was also very flexible to be able to accommodate my fur babies, which I greatly appreciated being a holiday, last minute booking! I hope to book with Trinity again!”
“Samuel was the best! He took such good care of my babies. He was respectful, neat and took time to get to know each of them. No doubt I will be reaching out to him again in the future. Probably within the month I totally trust him with my babies. I know you’ll love him too.”
“We are so happy with the level of service and amount of love Ruth provided for our dogs while we were away!! Our scaredy cat even made a few appearances, which tells me how comfortable everyone was with her. Very responsive and very responsible, highly recommend Ruth and hope she’s available next time we travel!”

Valerie was amazing with our puppy, Josie! We had not one ounce of worry while we were away. She kept us updated, sent lots of pictures, and made Josie feel as comfortable as possible. I swear our puppy came back better than we left her! I will book Valerie any chance we get!
Nolan was AWESOME! We did a meet and greet prior to sitting and he was detail focused on their needs. Also asked for more time to play and familiarize the dogs with him. While we were away he sent regular updates and photos/videos. When we returned our dogs seemed like their normal selves, having attention, play time, and relaxation. It was just the experience we were looking for. Highly recommend Nolan for all dog breeds and behaviors.

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 Myrtle Grove 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 Myrtle Grove 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 Myrtle Grove 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.
