“My frenchie is very shy and timid around new people so I was worried about using Rover. Jenny was so patient and caring with my girl that I was able to enjoy my trip. Communication was great and I got multiple updates and pictures. Thank you Jenny, I definitely recommend to anyone needing services for their pet!”
“Jasmine is so sweet and cared for our dogs so well! She gave us regular, detailed updates and sent lots of photos! Will definitely have her back to stay with our pups in the future!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish during middle school and high school as well as during breaks during college. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their animals from as little as a weekend to as much as 2 weeks at a time. I am currently a teacher in Catawba county and have plenty of time in the mornings before school, late afternoons after school, and evening time frames to take care of animals. I do not currently have a pet-friendly residence, but I am capable of walking, feeding, and playing with animals at their homes and within their neighborhoods.
“Arthur is amazing with both my dog and cats! He’s dependable, easy to communicate with, and treats them like his own. I loved getting updates and pictures while I was away — it made me feel so comfortable knowing they were in great hands. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
“Highly recommend Victory. Our dogs and our home were so well cared for when we left town. She was so attentive, communicative and thoughtful of the needs of our pups and ours from start to finish. You really cannot ask for more. Will 100% work with her again and will be able to enjoy time away, knowing our pups and our home are in amazing hands.”
“Natasha was the best!! Great communication from the start and throughout the stay. Boone connected with her immediately and seemed to genuinely enjoy her company. We enjoyed keeping in contact and getting the pics of our fur baby as he relaxed with his new friend. We will absolutely book again and are glad to have found Natasha!”
“If only I could give 10 stars!!! Thank you Carrie for staying with Bella and all of the pictures!! If you’re looking for a trustworthy person to stay with your fur babies while you’re away, Carrie is it!!!”
About: Years of professional experience providing daily care for pets, including feeding, walking, administering medication, and grooming. Individualized exercise, play and socialization, tailored to their well-being needs. Maintaining clean, safe environments by sanitizing food/ water bowls, litter boxes, and play areas. Communicating with pet owners to provide updates and photos to ease their mind. Providing overnight and vacation pet sitting, including companionship and home care. Have more than 1 furry angel baby? No worries as I have walked dogs individually and in groups, practicing safe leash handling and obedience reinforcement. I am currently looking for part time, or full time work schedule. I am very flexible at the moment and open to working any weekends as needed. I currently don’t have a space to bring pets to, but I would love to be able to care for your pets from your home.
“Christina was great with our dogs! We appreciated that she spent so much time with them! She kept in contact regularly on how the dogs were doing and sent pictures! Our dogs seemed happy when we arrived home unlike other times we have left them. We will definitely have her back to stay with the dogs!”
“Ava was a godsend to me, jumping in when a previous sitter had to cancel due to an unforeseen medical situation. I am 150 +% satisfied with the care she provided my senior dog and independent cat as well as my quirky house!! I left her written instructions that she followed closely including how to support my dog through thunderstorm terrors. I will not hesitate to book Ava again in the future and would highly recommend her for your pet/house sitting needs.”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years, starting with walking neighborhood dogs and growing into house sitting and boarding. I’ve also had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m experienced with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to their routine, I treat every pet like my own and give them plenty of attention and care! I’m a college student with mostly online coursework, so I have a flexible schedule and am home often. I also care for my two fur babies daily, so pet care is already a big part of my routine! I’m available most days, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. I have two friendly dogs of my own and always make sure introductions are done safely and at a pace that’s comfortable for everyone. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I keep dogs active and engaged with regular walks around my neighborhood and supervised time outside. I always follow your instructions closely, stick to your pet’s routine, and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away!
“Katie was an awesome caregiver to our 3 dogs - one of which is a super-senior with physical and cognitive issues. She provided great care including Rx med administration.”
“Iliana came in and saved our vacation! Our puppy got sick a week before we had a nonrefundable vacation planned. Luckily she recovered before we left. However, we didn’t just want to leave her with anyone. Iliana came and stayed ant our house while we were gone. We wanted someone to keep an eye on her 24/7 just in case. She administered meds while we were gone and even helped with the chickens.”
About: Hey y'all, I'm Tyanna and I'm an animal-friendly, kind-hearted pet lover/advocate who has always had a deep passion for animals. I am empathetic, nurturing, and sensitive to various needs, and I take pride in providing compassionate and attentive care to pets. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, especially while away. I have owned a variety of pets over the years, including snakes, cats, and dogs, which has given me experience with different temperaments, animal species, and care needs. I am also a lover of the outdoors and enjoy hiking, which makes me especially happy to provide dogs with needed exercise! I am a full-time student, and my time is fairly flexible. I'm willing to travel to dog sit and can stay in the pet’s home to help maintain their routine and provide stability while you are away. I am also available for daytime check-ins for pets while owners are at work, as well as dog walking to ensure pets get the exercise and attention they need. Because I am new, my level of clients on the app is currently low; however, I can provide client recommendations as needed! My schedule is fairly flexible, so please contact me for additional details. I like to keep my schedule based on how the owners daily routine is with their pet. I like to keep pets on their normal/consistent schedule and will work closely with the owners to prioritize the needs of their pets. Safety is key for me, so I require a meet and greets prior to finalizing the official reservation. This not only allows me to meet the owners and understand their needs, but it also allows me to get to know the pet and ensure we have a good connection.
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals and people—including work as a veterinary technician and a retired CNA/caregiver—I provide dependable, detail-oriented care you can trust. At Denney’s Den, dogs enjoy doggy Airbnb-style stays in my home- a calm, cozy, low-stress environment where they’re treated like family and given personalized attention while away from their hoomans. I also offer drop-in visits in your home, ensuring your pets receive consistent, compassionate care in the space they’re most comfortable. Since retiring from healthcare, caring for animals has become my full-time work. I am home most days, allowing me to provide hands-on attention, supervision, and a calm, structured routine for the pets in my care. My home offers a calm, safe environment with a large fenced yard and two friendly dogs. I intentionally limit the number of boarding dogs so each pet receives personalized attention. Crating is used only if preferred by the owner. For drop-in visits, I take great care to respect your home while ensuring your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine.
“Jaszmyn was absolutely wonderful in every aspect of caring for our pets. Her communication was excellent, and she perfectly balanced the needs of our older, fragile dog with the high energy of our other two dogs. We highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up in a household that took in more than 7 strays dogs, and now I have 1 rescue dogs myself. I used to take care for my two 13 year old dogs and I am able to take care of special needs dogs. I currently work as a professor, and working towards a doctoral degree. Please schedule in house sittings and drop-ins with time so I can accommodate my schedule. Currently living in Hickory/Newton Area, but commuting everyday to Charlotte. I will take care of your house and your pets as they are my own. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me.
“Alyssa is absolutely amazing! This was our first time hiring a sitter so we were very nervous, especially since we just rescued a new pup a couple months ago and didn’t want to upset her! Alyssa put us at ease with a ton of updates and photos of my dogs enjoying some outside time and getting all the snuggles! She was so kind, paid attention to detail and left our house spotless. Next time we go out of town, we can’t wait for our pups to hang out with Auntie Alyssa!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rhodhiss
Kate was wonderful. She went above and beyond while home and pet sitting for us. From texting to pictures and doing things not even asked of her. She is a kind soul, truly building a great reputation for herself. It’s easy to see why she has so many repeat clients. Thank you for everything, Kate! We would absolutely book with her again.
Kate is an awesome person and the best pet sitter I've ever had. We adopted a shepard collie mix with high anxiety, who was clearly not socialized. She's made great progress, but having a stranger come into her home without us there? We just won't ever take a dog-free vacation. Until the in-laws decided we're all going to Florida. Finding Kate has been a lifesaver, and so good for our baby. She came over multiple times, taking baby steps to gain trust and let our crazy girl get comfortable. This was our first overnight and it went so well! I'm so grateful for her patience and willingness to work with us. ❤️

FAQs for House Sitting - Rhodhiss
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rhodhiss on Rover is $47.89 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 310 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rhodhiss. 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 Rhodhiss 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 Rhodhiss 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 Rhodhiss 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rhodhiss. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
