“Trina is amazing!! She was so good with my two cats and dog. Having her stay at our home so that our pets could remain home instead of being boarded was the best decision. Our fur babies were so much happier being in their own space. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Trina for loving on our sweet babies!”
“Whitney was absolutely wonderful with Bailey! ❤️🐾 She took great care of her and treated her like her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was happy, safe, and well cared for while we were away. Whitney was caring, dependable, and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby! 🐶❤️”

Please don't hesitate to reach out to me, and I'll be there promptly. Go ahead and pursue that adventure you've been seeking, knowing your pet's well-being is assured with me! With a strong commitment to my role as a full-time mother and nearly 2 years of experience as an Animal Care Attendant for Roanoke County and animal behavior, I will be availablein the evenings and on weekends. If you are interested in scheduling an appointment, please contact me at your convenience. I prioritize the safety and happiness of your animals, guaranteeing they will receive the same high standard of care as my own. My residence includes a play pen, a yard, and multiple dog beds, providing ample space for relaxation. Furthermore, they are welcome to use the couch if they so desire.
“As always, Janet took great care of our pups and made sure they were at ease while we were away. Our dogs are anxious but there was no evidence of it when we returned because they were happy and comfortable with her.”
About: I’ve had dogs since i was a baby, always been one of my favorite things. I’ve been told i’m an animal whisperer and have a special connection with pets i don’t even know! I’m currently a part time worker, i’d have plenty of time to take care of and watch your animals. l don’t spend much time away from home max would be 4-5hrs on certain days. I’m overly open with pets being out around the house, they can be crated if needed of course. I have a small fenced area but a leash would still be needed preferably due to my neighbors dogs.
About: Reliable, Compassionate Care from Someone Who Truly Gets It As a pet parent myself, especially to a senior dog who needs a gentler pace and extra attention, I understand how important it is to have a sitter who treats your dog like family. That personal experience shapes the way I walk, support, and connect with every dog in my care. Puppy Training Support — I reinforce basic commands, leash manners, and positive behaviors to help young dogs build confidence. Senior Dog Expertise — Caring for my own senior dog has taught me how to adjust pacing, provide joint‑friendly routes, manage medications, and offer the calm reassurance older pups need. Behavior‑Sensitive Handling — I’m patient with shy, anxious, or reactive dogs and use gentle techniques to help them feel secure. Safety‑First Approach — Harness checks, safe routes, and attentive supervision are always part of my routine. Consistent Communication — You’ll receive updates, photos, and notes after every walk so you always know how your dog is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I already structure my days around caring for my own senior dog. I’m used to planning walks, medication reminders, feeding times, and calm downtime, so integrating additional pet visits is a seamless part of my day. I offer flexible scheduling with dedicated blocks set aside for morning, midday, and early‑evening walks. This helps ensure your dog receives consistent attention without rushed visits or unpredictable timing. Because I maintain a steady routine at home, I’m able to provide: Reliable daily availability — Morning and midday walks are part of my everyday rhythm, making it easy to accommodate regular clients. Structured weekly planning — I map out my schedule in advance so each pet gets focused, unrushed care. Consistency for senior dogs — My experience caring for my own senior dog means I understand how important predictable routines are for older pups. Flexibility for busy owners — I can adjust visit times within reasonable windows to match your workday or travel plans. Dedicated attention — I never overbook; each walk or visit is scheduled with enough time to give your dog the calm, patient care they deserve. Routine consistency — I follow your feeding, walking, and medication schedule exactly as you outline it. Secure entry & exit — Doors, gates, and harnesses are double‑checked before every walk. Calm, respectful presence — I move slowly, speak gently, and let your dog approach at their comfort level. Clean, tidy care — Water bowls are refreshed, messes are cleaned promptly, and your home is left exactly as I found it. Photo updates — You’ll receive notes and pictures so you always know how your dog is doing.
“Sydney was great. She took care of our two pups for eight days. One of which is sweet but reactive to dogs she does not know. We asked her to stay an extra day so we could spend one more night at the beach and she reorganized her schedule....she if very nice to work with.”
“Tiolla was so great! Was available last minute and send me pictures through the whole visit. Any request I had she followed & made sure to give all of the love to my pups. Highly recommend & will definitely be booking with her again 😊”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have a lifelong love for animals. As a dog owner myself with two dogs at home, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets the same way you do. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, potty breaks, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’ll send photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit to give you peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I currently do work full time but I do create my own schedule and am pretty flexible so we can work around the hours needed for you and your pet! I do currently have two male dogs who are 8 and 9 years old. They both are very friendly and very playful. They play with puppies and older dogs very well and they’re very diverse with sizes of dogs who they are around. If your dog is aggressive to other male dogs, this won’t be a good fit for you. However, i’m happy to have an introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable. We tend to take a lot of walks and play ball in the yard throughout the day. During the summer we swim in the pop up pool we have for the boys and get the zooms out!
“She was fantastic!! We have house cams and can verify that she is always timely, always respectful of our home, and was very kind and loving with my cats. I will be hiring her again for my next trip because she was worth every penny. Thank you, again!”
“James was AMAZING!!!! He took such great care of my dog and sent me pictures to let me know how she was doing. He also had to deal with my dog wetting the bed and was so gracious and understanding about it! I would highly recommend him!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nace. 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 Nace 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 Nace 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 Nace 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
