“Ashley was great! The girls absolutely loved her. They didn’t want to see her leave. She sent me daily pictures, which definitely made it easier for me. I will absolutely use Ashley again!”
“Jocelyn was amazing! I was impressed with her when I reached out, then when I met her in person I knew she was the one I wanted to watch my baby. Jocelyn was at my house for a week and was very respectful of my home and loved on my Daisy like I would. She responded quickly to my messages and even sent photos. I would have her watch Daisy again and I highly reccomend her. Trust me, she is the best. If you want someone honest, reliable and trustworthy reach out to Jocelyn, you will be happy you did.”
“Sierra was great with our dogs, and they were very calm and content when we arrived back from our trip. She also helped out with a couple household things, that was greatly appreciated! She sent an update everyday as well.”
About: Hi, my name is Annette and I have loved animals my whole life! I had show animals through my 4-H and FFA years where I was able to train, nuture, and love sheep and steers that I showed at the county fair. I was raised on a farm and had the opportunity to be able to also ride and care for horses. I have had two dogs in our family that have been loved and miss them dearly. I am at an age in my life where we can travel a little bit more without having to worry about dog care for myself anymore. I know how hard it is to find good loving care for your fur babies when the need for vacation or travel occurs. Thats why I would love to give those entrusted in my loving care to have a worry free vacation or drop in visits, providing walks and potty breaks when life gets busy. Here is a little background information about myself and my previously owned dogs that have been very loved and no longer with me. I do work a Physical Therapy job Monday - Thursday. Two days are half days and the other two are full 10 hour days. My black purebred pug named Angus was with me for almost 15 years. I recently lost our Dorky (yorkie/dachshund mix) named Bentley aka Mr. Beans also known as Mr. Weenie who was with us for just over 16 years. Grandma to our 3 year old grandpup Graham who is a long hair dachshund who visits us often. I found this Rover app and decided to give it a try as a side hobby to spend some time with your animals to help my heart heal as I love dogs! Dogs speak to my soul and therapy for our hearts! ❤️ I am currently working Monday thru Thursdays. Available to let dogs roam outside before work, lunch breaks, and after work with being crated during work hours only. My fenced in Back yard allows freedom to roam free, play, and explore. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard for your dog to run around and roam, or if you prefer me to come to your house that is also another option. love taking walks, whether it is around your neighborhood or mine, your dog is welcome with a harness or leash to come on a walk with me. I have 2 clean kennels or you can bring your own if you prefer and a home full of love.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was 10. I have experience caring for senior dogs as well as puppy care! I also have experience with training. Puppies have a special place in my heart, and I don’t think I would ever turn down watching a puppy!!! I currently work from home, so I am just hanging out with my dogs all day and taking them outside, so I thought why not have some more dogs come hangout with us! I have my own two dogs that are super sweet and friendly, and would love some more friends to play with! I take them out every 2 hours if not more and we go on walks or play in the field!
About: I have been around animals my whole life, they bring me joy and I love to surround myself with them. I hold high regard and respect for furry and feathered creatures. I jump at the opportunity to care for friends' pets, and I'd like to open my home to your loved ones too and develop a relationship. I don't have any furry house friends of my own currently, but I do have a working 16 acre farm with a variety of small livestock, cats and birds. I love each and every one of them. I am well versed in basic medical care of animals. My latest diabetic cat lived with insulin shots twice a day for 3+ years. Pets that I sit can either roam around the farm with me as I work, or stay in my cozy house and receive regular visits throughout the day. Dogs tend to be thoroughly entertained with a big smile on their face. If allowed, your dogs will enjoy various pasture-raised, organic treats from the farm. I see a lot of benefits to dogs that get safe, controlled exposure to farm life and being around other species. I also enjoy taking dogs on hikes with me. I have trails close by where we can get additional exercise and exploration. Animals in my care get loads of attention, love and entertainment. I also have resident farm hands that love animals, offering extra social interaction and playtime. I work full time on my 16 acre regenerative farm. Pets in my care get loads of love and attention. More active dogs can roam around the farm with me, always close by with a ball or toy. Less active, retired, older pups can hang out in my home and receive regular visits throughout the day. They will never go long without love and interaction. My home is big and spacious with lots of lounging areas. The farm has some fenced areas, and generally dogs do fine hanging out close by, or as needed can stay on a leash or a cabled run nearby. I alao have a 10 x 16 fenced kennel run available. Pets are never left outside unattended, but get loads of outside time if desired. I also have daily farm hands that all love animals and love to play with them. Pups love farm life! Did I mention they will get pasture-raised organic lamb and turkey treats if their parents allow it?
“Zoe has been an amazing sitter! We get daily updates and pictures and when we get back from our trips our home is spotless. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and are so so happy to have someone we can trust to watch our pets!”
About: I have grown up around dogs and cats my whole life and now have one 16 year old cat (who has been around dogs his whole life), an 8 year old mini Aussie, and a 7 year old healer/aussie mix. All of my fur babies get along with other animals and we love to play. A tired pup is a happy pup! I typically work 8-4 but have flexibility. I have a fully fenced, large backyard so I prefer animals to come to my place but I’m also willing to go check in on or walk pets at other locations. My dogs have a gotten use to not having a schedule so they are very adaptable to other pets schedule needs. I live alone so I will be very involved and attentive.
About: Because of allergies in my own home, I don’t have pets of my own. This means that when I am with your dog or cat, they have my 100% undivided attention and affection. I’m not just a sitter; I’m someone who truly cherishes the time I get to spend with animals. I treat every walk and every visit as the 'pet fix' I don't get at home, giving your furry family member the extra belly rubs, long walks, and genuine companionship they deserve. I offer a consistent routine that fits perfectly into a busy work week, along with the flexibility needed for those long weekend getaways: • Weekdays: I am available for evening walks, feedings, and playtime to help your pet unwind after you’ve had a long day at the office. • Weekends (Friday – Sunday): I have full flexibility! Whether it’s an extra-long hike on a Saturday morning or full-day companionship while you're out of town, I’m available to ensure your pet never feels lonely. I believe the best way to keep a pet stress-free while you're away is to stick to their established "house rules." Whether it’s specific feeding times, a preferred walking route, or making sure they aren't allowed on the couch, I follow your instructions to the letter. I want your pet to feel like their day-to-day life hasn't skipped a beat. I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I am naturally detail-oriented and responsible, ensuring that: • Doors and gates are always double-checked and locked. • The living space is kept clean and exactly as you left it.
About: I have been in love with animals all of my life. I've cared for and owned cats, dogs, rodents, bearded dragons. I love them all. My hours are fairly flexible. Weekends are open to stayovers, if needed. I can day sit dogs outside at my home but not inside, unfortunately. I am open to whatever your pet's needs are. Walks, feeding, medication, cleanup. I don't mind multiple pets. I'll do multiple visits depending on proximity.
About: Built trust with pets through patience, consistency, and positive interaction. Maintained safe, clean, and comfortable environments for animals at all times. Monitored pets for changes in behavior, appetite, or health and reported concerns promptly. On weekends, pet care is a regular and prioritized part of my routine. I plan my schedule to allow enough time for feeding, walking, cleaning, and quality interaction with the pets. I make sure they are fed on time, taken out for exercise, and given attention and play to keep them mentally stimulated. I also monitor their behavior and health, ensuring they are comfortable and safe throughout the day. My weekends are flexible, which allows me to be fully attentive to pets’ needs without rushing. I care for pets by following their established routines, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, cleanliness, and attention. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication with owners.

About: I raised my puppy Maple for 7 years until she died of cancer last year. I would love to hangout with your animals. I am young, love dogs, and willing to go on walks galore. I have a regular 9-4ish. So I would love to work on weekends and do overnights if that is what is needed from you. I am mobile and willing to keep the dog in a familiar environment. I do not invite animals to my house because I have limited space. If you are interested in drop ins and overnight care at your house I am very flexible for those throughout the week and weekends
About: I have over 40 years of owning and training fur babies and had many types of pets while growing up on a farm. I have fostered dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, from as big as Mastiffs and Great Dane to as small as Chihuahua and miniature Frenchies. If I see your baby, I'm gonna need to love on them. I have rescued many animals and know how to administer insulin for your aging baby and bottle feed your itty bitty kitties. I understand animal behavior and how best to encourage enthusiastic positive behavior. I believe in positive reinforcement and rewarding, never punishing fur babies. There is always someone at my home, so your babies will never be left alone. It would be my honor to be trusted with your little ones. I work from home and try to arrange my schedule so your babies will never be alone while in my care. 🐶🐾🐶 We will have lots of fun together, and I like to research each specific breed to see what makes them the happiest.🛋️🌳 My yard is fenced with lots of trees and shade, made for playtime. If your baby likes water, and it's a hot day, I'll fill up a play pool.💧💧🌞🌞 My fence is not very tall. If your baby is an escape artist or runner, I am not the best fit 💔

“I am very grateful that Jessica cared for and hung with my senior pup, Sky, over the Holiday. She was responsive, reliable, and communicated very well. I received frequent pictures of Sky, who definitely looked like she was enjoying herself. Most importantly, I felt at ease that she was in good hands and getting lots of love while I was away. Will certainly book Jessica as a sitter again!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Perry is $47 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $69 per night.

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 Perry 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 Perry 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 Perry 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Perry. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
