“Alyssa was fantastic! I have a house full of different pets, and she did a fantastic job managing all of their unique scheduling and dietary needs. She kept us informed of how things were going, and the house looks like she wasn't even here ( with the exception that she cleaned the litter boxes and took out the trash even though we didn't ask her to do so). Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Shannon always does such a great job watching our pups when we are out of town. We feel so safe with her in our home, taking care of them. She is our go-to gal!”
“Jessie was great with our dogs, we have a senior dog, who wasn't doing great health wise and she took such great care of him. Both our dogs were in great spirit when we got back from trip, which says a lot about how awesome she must have been with them. She is very articulate and detail oriented and respectful of our space, would totally recommend her and plan on using her again. Thanks again Jessie, who have done a great job:)”
“It was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family for a long weekend away. She followed all of our instructions and sent us updates and pictures. She’s super kind and replies fast when messaged. The dogs absolutely adore her. Highly recommend!”
About: I'm currently the behavior manager for our dog team at Our Companions Animal Rescue. I work at our sanctuary where I manage a team of competent handlers and I work with reactive/aggressive dogs. I'm currently working on getting my CPDT. If you hire me, I promise your canine companion will receive the care, compassion, patience, and attention they deserve. I'm generally always free Sundays and Mondays. I do work full-time Tuesday to Saturday, so my availability is somewhat limited. I can provide my dog walking/activity assistance after 4pm on those work days, except Fridays. Due to my long history and experience working with dogs, I have the ability to read dogs very well to detect if they are anxious, fearful, or uncomfortable. My goal is to make sure your dog gets exactly what they need, whether it's a certain activity they enjoy, training they need, or a certain destination they love for their outdoor time. Positive reinforcement is the name of the game.
“We really appreciate the good care from Faith for our pup Theo. She was prompt in responding, always conscientious, and everything went very smoothly while we were out of town.”
“Phoebe is an absolute pro! She is kind, considerate, and detail oriented. She clearly has a gift with animals. She stayed at my house with my two needy dogs while my husband and I were in Philly getting married. Weddings are stressful, but I TRULY didn’t stress about my pups at all, and that is the greatest wedding gift anyone could have given us! She left our house in better condition than we left it, and my dogs went outside to look for her when we came home! I really can’t thank you enough, Phoebe! :) I will absolutely book again!!”
“I have two cats that get very upset when I'm away, but Emma took care of them like they were her own and they were two happy boys when I got back. So grateful for the care and thought she put into our boys and our home”
“Hailey was great with Banner! He was a little wary at first, but she was patient with him and eventually won him over. She took good care of him and left my house clean and tidy. Thanks Hailey!”
“Katherine was great with our 2 dogs and our cat. She even got our rambunctious pups to walk on leash together, something we still struggle with. We will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Great experience with Matt! He watched out dog, Stella, for us while we were visiting Mammoth and was super reliable, flexible and very sweet with our dog. Highly recommend Matt if you’re in Mammoth!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Leaving our dog for six days was a little nerve-wracking, especially since medication needed to be given as needed, but I felt completely at ease the entire time. Carol took wonderful care of our dog, made sure all of his needs were met, administered his medication when necessary, and kept us updated regularly with messages and photos. It was so reassuring to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I am so grateful for the love and attention she gave Toby and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. I would happily book with her again!”
About: I love animals, especially dogs and cats. I had two Pekingese dogs when I was younger, they lived until 16 yrs old. A few years ago my family adopted a Border collie/lab mix. Benson is so energetic and loves to go on mile long walks. My husband and I also have a Labrador retriever, he loves to go on walks but more so to the dog park so we do frequent there. This past Christmas we also added a new addition to the family, Mikey, our hyperactive and fun labradoodle. He’s still a puppy but he’s definitely good at keeping us on our toes especially his older brother Jordey! I also have my own personal experience with dogs, Ive been walking/caring for others’ pets since 2017. I love it so much, meeting new dogs, all breeds, sizes and ages. I would love nothing more than to make your pet feel loved, safe and nurtured whether you just may be at work or away on a trip! But I’m pretty flexible so feel free to message me even if it’s outside these times and maybe I can squeeze your furbaby into my schedule! I always tell my clients to feel free to leave me a note or list of things they’d love for me to follow. Can be any special dietary needs or structure they need me to follow.
“Jacqueline watched our two rescue dogs (ages 3 and 6) in our house for a week and did a fabulous job! She was so understanding of their behavioral quirks and kept us updated frequently. It was a relief knowing they were in such good hands and seeing photos of their happy faces while we were away. Thank you, Jacqueline!”
About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of animals since I was young. Having every animal from cats to dogs, birds and guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, lizards, turtles, and birds! I have experience training dogs as well as training service dogs. I can care for animals from birth to their senior years. I can safely bathe animals, feed, administer medication, and give souch love to them! I have a very flexible routine that allows me to accommodate the needs of many pet parents! I can make adjustments as needed and am happy to spend time with your loved four legged friend! I keep a clean, safe space for the animals I visit with. Unless otherwise noted, I keep a variety of treats and toys on hand and keep a large gravity water bowl available at all times.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Franklin
Meg was so sweet and caring of our babies and their quirks and special needs. She kept us updated at least twice a day, with pictures and stories, and maintained our routines. So there was minimal interruption for them, and we could enjoy our trip. We came home from a 14 hour travel day to a calm house, and happy furs, and that's all we could have asked for.
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the start, she was incredibly organized, responsive, and communicative. Checking in with us often and keeping us updated every step of the way. Not only did she manage four large dogs (no small feat!), but she handled it with grace, patience, and obvious love. Our dogs were happy, relaxed, and well cared for cozy, and comfortable when we returned. It was clear they were looked after like part of her own family, not just “clients.” Her attention to detail, timely updates, and genuine kindness gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a dependable, caring, and professional sitter. If we ever need someone again — she’s our first call!
Lauren was so great! We needed a last minute sitter, she was able to accommodate a meet and greet and house sitting and was truly a life saver. She was very sweet and our dog and cats clearly adored her. She gave great updates at least twice a day and afforded us peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond with both our pets and things around the house. We’re so happy we went with Lauren and would definitely book her again. 💜
Lauren was an amazing pet/house sitter for our vacation. We have three dogs and she managed all of them so well. She shared daily updates and photos which were so appreciated. It was such a relief to know our dogs were in their home and free to go outside and to roam about the house with such a kind pet sitter. We will definitely book with Lauren again to watch our pets without a doubt.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in North Franklin is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 North Franklin 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 North Franklin 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 North Franklin 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
