About: I grew up with dogs and I love being around them and giving them the attention they deserve. I'm really active and love going for walks so having a dog companion would make it more enjoyable. Right now I have really good availability because I want to hopefully become a firefighter but I have to wait for the next academy. I'm a very caring and understanding person and it seems that my energy relates to dogs well because everywhere I go dogs seem to like me. I feel comfortable around dogs and love playing with them. Since I grew up with dogs I understand the importance it is for them to have a great experience when there owner is gone. Looking forward to meeting your dog. I’m currently workin part time so I will have plenty of time to play and walk your pupps. I love being outside so helping people out by giving there dogs the proper exercise and attention they need. I love dogs so I will treat them like they are family. I will follow your instructions to a tee so if in your home they have a place they sleep I’ll make sure to put them in the right spot and have all there needs covered.
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life, from dogs and cats to reptiles and amphibians, I've care for most! Being aware and responsive to your pets needs is key! I do contract work so my schedule is flexible most of the time. Generally up late so don't mind odd hours. Also available for early mornings as well, schedule can usually made to accommodate. I have reliable transportation and can travel whenever needed. I'm comfortable and experienced in giving pets medicine or injection if need be, and I'm willing to adapt to whatever needs your pets may have.
About: I do not take payment outside of the rover app or any other forms of payment! I have taken care of animals big and small for most of my life; goats, chickens, cats, dogs, geese, rabbits, fish, snakes, rats, geckos, tortoises, pigeons, and probably more. I have pet sit for many friends and family members, and now that I have a cat of my own, I know how much trust one must put in someone to watch their pet. I have also cared for animals in a professional setting at Madison Children's Museum (where I cared for chickens, pigeons, crested geckos, turtles, tortoises, and rats) and was trained in their care. I am used to feeding my cat and cleaning her litter box every morning. Along with this, I sweep because she is a menace who launches her litter across the room. I will treat your pet as if they are my own family, talking to them as if they can respond, and giving them all the love I have. I will also follow any special instructions you have for me, and try to keep your pet on their preferred schedule - I want you both to be as comfortable as possible.
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years. I was so lucky to grow up in a home that was the local Noah’s Arc. This childhood formed my commitment and love to animals. About 20 years ago, I decided to enter the world of pure bred dogs and have been an avid exhibitor and breeder of Pointers and Ridgebacks focused always on good temperaments and health. I love dogs and really believe it’s important that each animal I care for, feels at home, comfortable, pampered, exercised and loved. I have 4 dogs that are super casual and it has been very easy to bring animals into my home. I will only take 1 or 2 dogs at a time, as I want to be able to provide the best care possible for them. Your animals are treated as though they are mine and the care and love they will experience can only be exceeded by you. It’s always stressful for animals to be away from their families, so the more I can do to relieve this stress, the better I feel. I always tease my clients that their dogs may come home a little spoiled. I’m very much available all day really to take care of the dogs as my schedule is very flexible. In addition my brother lives with me and he helps me take care of the dogs. There is always a person at our house while your dog will be visiting. I also offer a military discount for those that have or are serving our beautiful country. I do not work outside of the home, which provides me with a lot of flexibility to provide dedicated care to your pets all day. I think it's important dogs that stay at my house receive the same amount of attention as they would at home and as my dogs do. I also believe it's important not to disrupt their daily routine, so I work closely with owners to understand each Dog needs.
About: I have over 10 years of experience working with my own and others' dogs, including 5 years of professional experience at a doggy daycare and a local rescue. I've cared for dogs of every age, breed, and temperament — including dogs other sitters have called aggressive. My own reactive lab/weimaraner mix taught me to read body language and keep dogs comfortable in any situation, and I'm now a professional dog trainer. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, your dog's routine gets followed exactly and they're treated like my own. Open and flexible mornings, evenings, and weekends, holidays all work. Recurring drop ins, walks and overnight stays welcome. Last minute requests okay with quick confirmation. I will help to maintain the boundaries you have set for your household and I am comfortable working with all different pets. If there is a specific routine you have set up for your house I will abide by it.
About: I've grown up with dogs and have taken care of them since I was in high school. I'm currently a graduate student studying Clinical Psychology through the University of Alabama UA. I’ve relocated to Georgetown to complete my doctoral internship. I am available to dog sit or walk/care for your fur baby! I do have a small (16lb.) King Charles Cavalier in my home. She is sweet and gets along well with other dogs! I have open availability until August 10th! Then, I will work a normal 7:30-4:30 schedule! Feel free to reach out to see if we would be a good fit. I live in a spacious, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom townhome that has a deck & yard. I also live within a 5 minute drive to the local park.
“Kat was amazing! She’s not only just a cool person, but our dogs took to her immediately. We appreciate the communication while we were away - including pics of the pups lounging the day away. I will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: I had cat and dogs my whole life and owners pets mean the word to them care and gentleness mean the word to them I love pets I am available every day if you need your pets taking care of at anytime of the day you can get hold of me and I make sure I am there If you have any requests for your lovable pets let me know I will do my very best to make them comfortable as possible at all times
“Kaitlyn watched our three pups while we were gone for ten days. They absolutely loved her, and we are so so so grateful for her! She came over and met them ahead of time and we got to know who was going to be staying with our babies for a long time. She was great at sending pics & updates. Our AC even went out while we were gone, and she was very communicative and helped make sure the guys could come in and fix it. Our pups were her #1 priority and I know they can’t wait to have her back again :)”
About: Got my first dog at age 10, an English Bulldog named Buster. A few years later I got my second dog, a poodle mix named Tucker. Been employed to take care of several other breeds/ages by family and friends! I am a college student and have a pretty flexible schedule besides a few spread out classes! I will do whatever I can to accommodate all pets needs! I love all things pets! I am willing to work with whatever their needs may be. Whether that be a high energy pup or a lazy one!
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs since I was 10. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed and love on their animals. I have a very flexible full time job that allows me to come and go as needed. I always check my schedule to make sure I can. I like to meet the family and pets before I start so that they know who I am and am not a stranger to them. I currently have three family’s that rely on me when they go out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 490 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Peaks Mill. 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 Peaks Mill 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 Peaks Mill 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 Peaks Mill 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.
