“Another great stay with Melissa! Our dog, Rosie, stayed for a week while we were on vaca. We got lots of pictures and videos every day. Melissa has great communication and I always feel like Rosie’s in great hands while we are away”
“Tifaney did a wonderful job. She kept at it when my old baby wouldn't come out of his hiding place until he finally decided she is a 5 star! Great house guest and left things better than before. I will book Tifaney again.”
“We were nervous leaving our fur babies because we’ve had a bad experience in the past. We hired Jessica for overnight for a 3 day weekend. She came for a meet and greet and was so good even with our big Merle! We have a pet cam, so were able to see how often Jessica was checking on our babies and she was absolutely top notch! We couldn’t be more pleased! We’ll definitely use again!”
“Daniel stayed with our two dogs for eight days. They were happy, eating and playful all week. He has been so good for our dogs when we are gone. He took care of all their needs and gave them play time in the yard. The house and the dogs were in great condition when we returned. He even folded blankets and left the place clean. He stayed a couple extra hours when our flights continued to get delayed just in case they were cancelled, and left calming dog channel on for them when he did leave. We will definitely be booking him again.”
“Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our basset hound puppy and our cat Shira. She was very communicative and always sent us photos of our pets which we know enjoyed their time with her. She made us feel a lot better about leaving them for the weekend and made it a lot less stressful. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Alonna was awesome! We felt at ease leaving town knowing she was caring for our pups. She checked in frequently, send pictures, and left the house clean. I would book her again in a heartbeat, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!! :)”
“Victoria is great with our 4 furkids. The 3 older kids took to her right away. Little Monkey took a little longer, but he came around. We will definitly book with Victoria again. We highly recommend her.”
“There was some unexpected bumps that come up during week stay but Lauren was so gracious and she took Twix to her place. She sent updates everyday with pictures of him. Our somewhat picky dog became a dog that is more laid back, enjoyed their cat and and made many new friends. Lauren gave him the best care along with her family. Twix was so sad to leave their home, he had the best vacation.”
“Parris was amazing!! He took care of our 5 fur babies and house for a long weekend and everything was wonderful. Fantastic communication, all the animals were clearly well cared for and happy and healthy when we came home. Great experience all around and would highly recommend Parris.”
About: I’m an animal lover with no fur babies of my own at the moment, which means I have plenty of love to give to yours! ❤️ I’m the trusted sitter for all my friends’ fur babies, also known as my fur nieces and nephews. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your fur babies plenty of attention, love, and companionship throughout the day. I work from home so I have full flexibility with my schedule allowing me to take breaks throughout the day for walking, playing, and belly rubs. I make sure your babies feel safe and comfortable while following their feeding schedule, making sure they have fresh water, and provide walks. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions from pet parents and provide updates and photos for peace of mind while they’re away.
About: Dogs come first in my house. I’m always excited to take my dogs on a hike, walk or puppy play date. Unfortunately I recently had to move out of state, leaving my family dogs where they grew up with my parents, in our family home. I have sat numerous dogs both young and old. I am always up for a pup slumber party. I have worked with foster dogs who were abused and need extra love and attention. Any specific requests for them? Let me know and I can be accommodating! I am currently working a part-time schedule with my job as a spa manager. Morning walks or weekend care will fit best within my schedule! I care for pets as if they are my younger siblings. I believe a good dog, is a tired dog! Letting them play and explore helps get extra energy out, allowing them to stay fit and healthy!
“Lily recently watched my three puppies and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was incredibly attentive to each of them, kept up with their individual schedules and even took the extra time to work on training commands with them. She kept me updated throughout my trip with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, well cared for and having a great time. Lily truly went above and beyond and it was clear how much she genuinely cared for my puppies. I will absolutely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible and dependable pet sitter!”
About: I have had my own dogs since 2016 and before that I volunteered at the humane society and would walk and pet sit local dogs in my neighborhood! My dog is very friendly and loves to share her toys with other pups! Just moved across the country so I am waiting for my licenses to transfer over so I have a lot of free time to care for your pets! I always take my pup to the local dog park and we have a very nice and quiet neighborhood I take her on walks through aswell!
“Angela took wonderful care of our babies and home, while we were away for the holidays. She provided plenty of updates, and daily photos, that gave us such peace of mind. Highly recommend! We can’t wait to have her back again :)”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family dogs over the years. I enjoy spending time with Miniature Schnauzer and making new fury friends with him. I currently work from home . Which gives me ample enough time to spend with the dogs walking and playing. I am available for pet sitting and pet boarding on the weekends . I live in a secure apartment style home with dog friendly amenities (park & spa) . Also, I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I have been taking care and looking after animals since I was 10. My family had several dogs, cats, and even reptiles at all points in additional to several friends here in Charlotte. 📸Instagram: buckrover I work in a remote setting for a tech company and make my own schedule. I’m very flexible in my hours and can also work from anywhere. I care with both ease and detail in how the said animal is to be taken care of according to their owners specifications and request.
“My dogs are 10 and 12, and they both got sick on my very first day out of town. Chrissonna was incredible - she kept a close eye on them, gave me clear updates about what was going on, and had them both comfortable, taking their meds, and feeling better before the end of the day. It was such a relief to know they were in good hands. I would highly recommend Chrissonna to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling.”
“Cobi has been absolutely amazing in every way! She was the first person I had experience with from Rover and I was blown away! With working night shift and having a 10 week old puppy, it’s been a lot of stress and very time consuming (as puppies are). However, she has eased so much of the weight and stress off my shoulders! She was adaptable and flexible with my schedule, communicated with me consistently, helped me with basic training, and always showed up and cared for my puppy! I will definitely be reaching back out :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ranlo
Leaving our little Wrangler for an entire week was something we were honestly worried about. He's a Yorkie Poo who is very attached to us, a little spoiled, and doesn't do well when we're away. From the moment Melissa started caring for him, all of those worries disappeared. She didn't just watch our dog. She truly cared for him. She warmed his food, prepared his meals, remembered to take extra food out of the freezer, and followed every detail we left for her. But what meant the most was the love and attention she gave him. The pictures and videos she sent every day showed him playing, relaxing, and looking so happy. Seeing his tail wag and his happy little face made it so much easier for us to enjoy our vacation, knowing he was in such wonderful hands. When we came home, Wrangler was happy, healthy, well fed, and had clearly been loved all week. It honestly felt like he had been staying with family. As an unexpected bonus, our house was spotless. The countertops were wiped down, everything was neat, and she had taken wonderful care of our home as well. Melissa went far beyond anything we expected. She gave us complete peace of mind, and that's a priceless gift when you're trusting someone with a beloved member of your family. We feel so fortunate to have found her, and we're already booking her again next week. We recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and truly exceptional pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ranlo is $86 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $103 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,902 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ranlo. 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 Ranlo 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 Ranlo 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 Ranlo 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.
