About: I’ve been caring for animals for years everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Whether it’s a long walk, a quick drop-in, or cuddles and feeding time, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for while you’re in need Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I start most mornings with a workout or walk, so adding pet walks or drop-ins during the day fits perfectly. My work schedule is flexible, which allows me to check in on pets throughout the day and evening. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines closely feeding schedules, walk routes, and house rules to make sure your pet feels secure and stress free. I take time to earn their trust with calm energy, patience, and plenty of affection.
“We felt really good about leaving our home and pets in the care of Brenna when we went away for the weekend. She did a great job and our 3 cats, dog and fish were all happy and well cared for. We would highly recommend her!”
“What a great experience! He was very responsive and attentive. We have 5 senior pets and he took special care for and loved on each despite their quirks and special needs. Loved the pictures and updates provided throughout the stay and we can tell they are all happy and content upon our return. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Walk time, play time, and snuggle time are all big parts of owning and loving a dog, and happen to be 3 of my favorite things. My 6 year old coonhound mix Wilbur loves to play tug and chase with his neighbors & BFFs, Lily, Chase, and Stitch, and would love to meet your pet if you'd like! Not every dog wants play, some need one on one time. I'm here because I love dogs and am in tune with their needs. I pay attention to what they are trying to tell me. I've grown up with dogs my entire life, from mutts to Cairn Terriers to Beagles to Pibulls to St. Bernards, and have yet to find a dog that doesn't like me. Even when their owner said they wouldn't. Even better than that, dogs listen to me inherently and when I come upon a stubborn pup, I know that patience and positive rewards trump everything! Wilbur's BFF Beau was a rescue from animal torturous testing and had many special needs. He was also a flight risk. I dog sat Beau and Lily for 7 years and have learned to never underestimate a Beagle's brain, they will not hesitate to outsmart you. Currently Lily is 16 and gets a special diet along with meds. Wilbur grew up with her since he was 3.5 months old, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior pups who need attentive care. Thank you and I look forward to adding your pup to my 4-legged friend list! I'm currently working part time, so your pet will easily fit into my schedule. My hours are flexible and my car is reliable, ready to transport a new friend! I have a fenced in yard and gated wrap around porch, as well as 2 beagles (ages 4 6), a small supermutt (age 16), and a medium sized Wilbur (age 6). At your home harnesses and leashes will always be on before any doors are opened. I can crate your dog as well, if you prefer that.
“Chelsea is amazing! She took such great care of our Lucy and put our minds at ease. Last time we left our girl she had bad separation anxiety and this time with Chelsea when we got home she didn’t even act like she missed us. Chelsea was great sent us updates and pictures multiple times a day. Lucy loved her! We are so thankful we found Chelsea and highly recommend her!!”
“We had a great experience with Meghan! She cared for our dog, Luna, in our home while we were away. Communication was excellent with regular texts, pictures and pup-dates. It was clear that Luna was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I would recommend Meghan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Brady was fantastic. He communicated with us throughout our entire trip letting us know how Holly was doing and making she we knew she was happy and well cared for. He took care of and respected our home. We would not hesitate to have him back!”

This includes being left at home for full weekends making sure they are fed, medicated, let outside, and of course loved! I also have some experience with taking care of cats although I’ve only ever had barn cats. There are a few weeks during the summer that I wouldn’t be able to do. These would be June 1st, June 22-June 26, June 29-July 10, and July 13-July 24. Other than that I can start as soon as May 25! I’m very friendly with animals and would be fine with feeding, walking, bathing, medicating, etc. All I ask for is detailed instructions of what to do!

About: My hubby and I have been caring for dogs for years, from friends’ and family’s pets to repeat pet-sitting clients. We absolutely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. We have a Cockapoo of our own who is completely spoiled, so we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, snuggling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, we’ll make sure they feel right at home. We’re also having our wedding in April 2027, so every booking helps us save for our big day while doing something we genuinely love. ❤️ I work in special education, which gives me several mornings and afternoons available throughout the week. During the summer, I’m off every Friday, so I’m available for long weekends starting Friday through Sunday. Because of my schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. My husband also helps whenever needed, so your dog receives plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications (if needed), walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. Our home is in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with a spacious backyard and several parks and walking trails nearby. We always supervise outdoor time and never introduce pets to unfamiliar dogs without your permission. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. You’ll also receive plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in great hands.

Lucilla was a pleasure to work with. She was flexible and courteous with us, but more importantly she made our nervous and strong-willed dogs feel at ease. She has a calm confidence that dogs will really align with. We look forward to using her to care for our fur babies in the future and would highly recommend her.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pomeroy
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pomeroy on Rover is $64.41 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,353 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pomeroy. 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 Pomeroy 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 Pomeroy 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 Pomeroy 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
