“Angie is the most kind and responsible pet sitter on Rover. We were 100% worry free on vacation due to her experience as a vet tech, experience as a dog Mom, her quick replies and ample photos. She kept our home up, cleaned up after our pup, brought in mail and truly went over the top providing a new cover for our girls diapering needs. We will even be able to use it for an upcoming procedure she needs. Needless to say, I would easily recommend Angie for an awesome sitter experience. Thanks so much!!!”
About: I am a dog sitter for neighbors and trusted friends! I am reliable and attentive, and love dogs with my whole heart. I also have a dog myself!! I have grown up surrounded with different dogs and would love to make sure you’re pet is comfortable when you’re not there! I love being outside, whether it’s going on walks or hikes, so pet care fits perfectly into my week. Taking care of dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible! In a clients home, I make sure pets feel secure in their familiar space and making sure everything is tidy.
About: Mike's first job was caring for his neighbors' pets. Mike has had pets since he was 10, and travelled around the world with his dogs and cats during his military career and regional sales role. Roscoe, Higgins, and Freyja are living the dream in the Pacific Northwest with frequent road (work) trips and cross-country visits to the family in Indiana and Massachusetts. Let me know if we can help you with your fur babies. Mike works from home and is an early riser. While the coffee is brewing, all the animals are waking up with bathroom breaks and breakfast. Mike walks Roscoe after breakfast and dinner. Since Roscoe is a senior, we frequently split the two meals into snacks and shorter walks. When the cats are interested, they climb into the backpacks and go see the world with us. I pay attention to the animals' behavior and routines. Consistency in feeding and bathroom breaks has made my pets very comfortable with my work and social routines. I have the flexibility to meet your routines and maintain the consistency you expect with your family while away from home. I recognize when it's time to stop playing, reduce the mileage, or go to the vet.
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve helped friends, neighbors, and family by walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for their pets while they were away. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to routines, safety, and each pet’s individual needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if it were my own. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I’m available on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and again after 6:00 p.m. I’m also fully available on weekends, which allows me to provide consistent care, attention, and flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting I always prioritize safety, trust, and respect when caring for pets in their own home. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, maintain routines, ensure doors and gates are secure, and keep pets in a calm and safe environment. I treat every home and pet with responsibility, care, and attention.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and have owned three wonderful dogs over the years—a Shetland Sheepdog, a Chocolate Labrador Retriever, and my current Terrier mix, Bandit. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I've volunteered with a local dog rescue and fostered dogs, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, ages, personalities, and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the individualized care and attention they deserve. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to help keep your pet healthy, happy, and comfortable. I work full-time during the week. Because I want every pet in my care to receive plenty of attention, I offer boarding in my home on weekends, when I can dedicate my time to walks, playtime, cuddles, and maintaining your dog's normal routine. During the week, I offer drop-in visits for pets who need potty breaks, meals, walks, medication, or companionship while their owners are at work or away. This schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while ensuring every pet gets the time and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I'll carefully follow your pet's routine and keep you updated with daily photos and videos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Because my dog, Bandit, will also be in the home during boarding stays, I require a meet-and-greet before accepting new boarding clients to ensure our dogs are comfortable together and are a good fit. My goal is to provide a safe, low-stress, loving environment where every dog feels welcome, secure, and cared for like family.

She took care of our pup and home as if they were her own.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and am very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and temperaments. I currently have a senior dog of my own, so I’m especially attentive to routine, patience, and reading body language. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, crate routines, and giving pets the attention they need while you’re away. I understand how important consistency and safety are, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I work remotely and have the capacity to be available whenever needed, including those that need multiple walks, medications or play time throughout the day. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible — same feeding times, walk schedule, and familiar environment. I always double-check doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses before and after walks, and I’m attentive to surroundings while outside. I treat your home with respect and leave everything as I found it. For drop-ins and walks, I focus on safety, patience, and clear communication. I’ll send updates and photos so you know your pet is comfortable and cared for. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Princess Anne
Michael did a fantastic job taking care of my pets! He was reliable, punctual, and communicated really well throughout the entire booking. He made sure my dog was fed, took him on walks, and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I also really appreciated that he kept me informed as my cats slowly warmed up to him. It was clear he was patient with them and paid attention to each of my pets’ personalities and needs. Overall, I had a great experience and felt like my animals were in good hands. I would absolutely book with Michael again and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
Melissa is fantastic! She took great care of our kitties and sent updates and pictures while we were away. One of our cats is shy around strangers and Melissa made sure to bring her food closer to her hiding spot to make her more comfortable. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our babies were well cared for.
Leila took such wonderful care of both my dog Matteo and my cat Diesel while I was away. Matteo immediately loved her, and she made sure he got plenty of attention and exercise. What really impressed me, though, was how she connected with Diesel. He’s extremely shy and almost never comes out when new people are around—but somehow Leila won him over! By the end of the visit, he was not only comfortable but eating right out of her hand. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing both of my pets were happy, safe, and cared for like family. Leila sent thoughtful updates and photos, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter. We feel lucky to have found her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Princess Anne
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Princess Anne on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,138 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Princess Anne. 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 Princess Anne 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 Princess Anne 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 Princess Anne 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.
