“Erin was amazing!! She sent me pics during the day of the adventures her and my pup did. I will definitely reach out to her when we need somone to watch Sylvee again!”
“Alex is amazing!!!! I have a 17 year old dog, who is mostly blind, and gets very nervous when left alone. It was my wedding weekend, and Alex agreed to spend time with my dog for the rehearsal night and also for the whole day and into the evening on my wedding day. Prior to her stay, we did a meet and greet and Alex was so kind, patient, and caring. I felt a huge weight lift, knowing I had found such a good sitter! I felt much more relaxed about leaving my dog with her, and that really helped me to stay present during my wedding day.”
“Melissa was very understanding of our very excitable dog and worked great with him. Felt very at ease trusting her with our pets and would absolutely book again if we are in need!”
About: I worked at Petco in Virginia for three Summers me and my wife have had animals since we've been together which is 20 years just looking to take care of other people's animals and get some exercise at the same time. We'll be doing it part time I will not be working at any other job this will be my job that I will be doing have to take it easy I've been working hard for the last 30 years I have a routine we take our dogs out at least four times a day to go potty we do walk them around and our big yard they get fed on a regular basis I do have cats outside which are dogs get along with and all of our animals are potty trained so we work with them on making sure they're potty trained they don't misbehave when people around so I'm pretty much good with animals.
About: I currently work full-time in ABA, which has helped me become very patient, attentive, and dependable. I’ve had pets since I was 15 and currently have a cat named Cleo, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. My schedule is also pretty flexible, with some availability during the day. I would treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work full-time in ABA, but my schedule is pretty flexible and I have some availability during the day. I would love to use my free time to care for your pup or cat when needed! I’m happy to work pet care into my daily or weekly routine based on your pet’s needs and schedule. I will always uphold the standards that keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I’ll follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions. I want every pet to feel cared for and comfortable while their owner is away.
About: My family has had dogs on and off since I was a child. I’ve also been dog sitting for friends and family over the past 5 years-in many capacities: day visits, overnight, single and multiple dogs, different age ranges, breeds and dog walking. I don’t have a lot of cat sitting experience but have friends/family who have cats. I work from home 2-3 days a week, so I’m available more flexible on those days. Weekends and weeknights, I’m a bit more flexible to care for pets overnight or provide drop-ins throughout the day. I have no pets in my house, so your pet(s), will get my full attention. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but am able to use lines if needed, I also have space to kennel your pet if needed. My house is a split level, so I have stairs to get to either floor of the house. My parents do have dogs (in a different household), so if you pets don’t get along with other dogs please let me know.
About: I'm high energy and giving. I grew up with big dogs my entire life and this is the first time I have been without one in awhile. My golden retriever passed away last summer and in due time I will be getting another dog. In the meantime it brings me here so I can help others when they need it. I have experience training puppies and my father and I helped out a breeder of goldens for awhile. I enjoy finding new toys or things for dogs to do to enhance their cognitive abilities and regular exercise is important to me. I look forward to getting to know you and your dog! I'm currently working on being a bookkeeper, so I have more free time with my schedule. As of now I'm a full time oral surgery assistant, working 7am-4pm. I had a routine when I had my golden which included waking up, eat our breakfast and then go for a nice walk, followed with our daily trip to the dog park. I moved to a duplex, so boarding dogs is a bit harder for me now. However, I am still open to having them stay with me if they do okay with walks. I make sure the house is clean and safe, especially having a puppy. I keep a plethora of toys available, daily walks, grooming appointments and food. I do everything to make sure any dog is living their best life, because they're the angels that walk this earth.
“Michelle is warm, comforting, and calm. She was so good with our very traumatized Beagle rescue that he was able to relax and be a dog like he is with us. That has never happened before Especially after the first meeting! My husband and I are so very grateful to her and so happy to have her as a member of our family!”
About: What sets me apart is that I’m not only an experienced pet sitter—I’m a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) with a background in veterinary medicine and years of hands-on experience caring for pets with a wide variety of needs. I bring a knowledgeable, compassionate approach to every pet I care for. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets, medications, post-operative care, anxious pets, and animals who need a little extra patience and attention. My veterinary background allows me to recognize changes in behavior or health and provide attentive care while keeping your pet’s comfort and safety my top priority. I also have experience caring for puppies and young pets, including maintaining routines, reinforcing good habits, and providing plenty of positive interaction and supervision. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, elderly and slowing down, or requires specialized care, I take the time to understand their individual personality and needs. As the owner of my own pet-sitting business, I pride myself on being reliable, professional, communicative, and trustworthy. My goal is for your pets to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for—and for you to have complete peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 I am a certified veterinary technician. I work another full time job so I am available in the early morning, evenings, and weekends. I like to make schedules on both ends work out! I always keep my dog on a leash. I have a partially fenced in yard but my dog still remains on a leash to prevent getting loose. I will not let your pet off a leash due to liability reasons.

The average cost of House Sitting in Pulaski is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $33 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 Pulaski 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 Pulaski 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 Pulaski 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.

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.
