“Great dog sitter! Teresa kept me updated throughout my whole weekend away. She sent pictures and took my dog on hikes. She took great care of my dog. I would highly recommend Teresa as a dog sitter and will definitely be reaching out if I need a dog sitter again. Thanks Teresa!!”
“Just moved to the area and we were nervouc leaving the dogs for the weekend so soon after moving... But we were put to ease! Communicated very well and my pups loved her! On time, responsive, and reliable. Loved all the updates she sent through the day :)”
About: Your dog’s comfort and joy come first. I bring years of experience and a genuine love for pups to make every visit fun, safe, and worry free! As a stay at home mom, I love spending my days caring for pets, going on walks, and visiting the horse barn. Pets easily fit into my daily routine, and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s in my home or yours. I follow routines, rules, provide food, water, supervision, and lots of play time. In your home I respect your space while giving updates to build trust.
“Gillian is our go to dog sitter. She has watched our pup twice while we were away for a week on an international trip. I would not leave my dog with anyone else!”
“JaNiya is an angel! She came to save the day when I was all the way in California and a sitter bailed on me. She came in and loved on my puppy, helped put my house back in order and get him on track with his meds. She gave me very helpful updates to ease my worry and also gave some flvery helpful insights as a new dog mom. I will definitely be a repeat client.”
“Chas was the absolute best!!! She took care of four pets that all can be shy but they had no problems with warming up quickly! She gave lots of positive updates throughout our long trip and we were able to fully relax! Cannot recommend her enough!”
“This was our first time using Abril and she did not disappoint. She sent us updates along with pictures and videos. Kingston was happy and his usual energetic self. Thank you Abril.”
“Trish was great and made herself available on short notice to meet and watch our puppy, Ophelia, who absolutely loved her. We really appreciated kindness, disposition, and flexibility. We'll now feel more comfortable going out knowing Ophelia is lovingly cared for.”
About: I was a dog groomer for 5 years so I am expert in understanding animal’s languages and needs. I’m kind, responsible and dedicated to making you and your pet feel comfortable. I know how hard it can be to trust your babies with someone new! I am in between jobs so I currently have full availability! I have a chihuahua who is very low maintenance at home, so I have plenty of time and energy to care for others. I'm here to follow the routine your dog is expecting! I want them to be comfortable and happy. Any special requests or specific needs will be accommodated. I can also accommodate reactive dogs - I have personal experience with them and understand their needs/quirks.
About: Hey! I'm Darby, I have 6 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Pet sitting was the fist way I discovered I could make money when I was in middle school, and I still love it to this day! I have about 1.5 years of experience working as a trained veterinary technician. This means that I am comfortable working with special needs animals, providing special diets, and administering medication. I am also familiar working with animals that may be anxious. Right now, I'm studying animal biology at The University of Tennessee, working at an exotic animal clinic, and am starting to apply for veterinary school. Relevant Classes: Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Small Animal Veterinary Medicine I'm currently working part-time and taking college courses online. My best availability is all-day Friday-Sunday, but I can be flexible if I have a heads up! I like to make sure I have everything I need to know from a client before they leave so I don't have to bother them too much while they're away! This includes medication, feeding schedule, behavioral problems, and any space that may be off limits to myself and/or the pet. I'm no stranger to a mess, so no worries if your pet is prone to accidents.
“Allie was amazing. Sent lots of cute pictures of my fur babies and even a cute little schedule of things they did throughout the day! We would definitely love to have Allie back to take care of our fur babies again!”
“Wanda is a wonderful, so caring and attuned to animals and their needs. I felt totally comfortable with Wanda staying at my house, and appreciated the communication and updates while I was away. Coco was really relaxed and content when I returned home, when often she is very emotional, like “where were you???”, so I took this as a good sign that she enjoyed Wanda’s company. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Kiara did such an amazing job watching my pup! My pup is reactive and nervous around strangers and she followed all of my instruction on how to interact with him and everything went great!”
“Justin did a great job looking after my 2 small pups. They were happy and well cared for when we returned, and we're happy to socialize with some new friends!”
“Ryan is a fantastic dog and house sitter who loved on my dog Brady and gave him great care. He is so calm and responsible that I didn’t have a care in the world while being away for two weeks. I walked into my home just as I had left it and I think an even calmer dog than when I left him in his care. My flight was cancelled and he even stayed another night and brought him to Pet Paradise for a day of play when asked. I highly recommend Ryan as you couldn’t ask for a more helpful and knowledgeable pet sitter. Thanks Ryan for everything!!”
“Cayla did a great job with our pups! This was our first time using the rover app and letting someone new watch our dogs. She eased our minds by watching them, provided pictures for us and also followed our instructions we left. Our fur babies were well taken care of and I felt comfortable rebooking her for a second time. She was flexible and willing to work with us as well. Book her everyone!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rossville
She was so good with our dog and cat. Our dog is very anxious and nervous with new people and by the end of day 1 she had her comfortable. So thankful she took such good care of the pets and house. She sent me a bunch of updates so I knew they were taken care of. Highly recommend for anyone to book with her.
Terezie is simply the best. We had a truly terrible experience with who had been watching our cats (NOT someone on Rover) and were left feeling nervous about finding someone new. The minute Terezie and I began communicating, I knew she was different. Her level of concern and care was evident in how she thoughtfully asked questions, took notes, and immediately worked to connect with each of our babies (2 cats and 1 dog) when she came to our home. We have a cat with a health mystery as of now and she was as concerned as we were and offering ideas on what we might try next with our vet. She checked in on several things while we were away just to get more clarity on what we prefer and what the babies would be more comfortable with. I dang near cried from relief with how good it felt to know Terezie was our pet caregiver. We will be requesting her FIRST any time we are away from home from now on. Thank you, Terezie! Pet parents need more people just like you!!
So grateful for Melissa jumping in last minute to help us out. Never have used Rover before so was hesitant to get a stranger to look after our pups, but Melissa was relaxed yet attentive immediately from the moment I met her. The girls weren’t anxious at all upon us getting home and that’s saying a lot. Will definitely be using Melissa again!
Rebooking was a no-brainer because he’s still the best sitter we’ve ever had. Our dogs absolutely love him — the kind of love where they barely notice we’re leaving. He kept us updated with tons of photos and videos, which we really appreciated, and took them on long walks so they could catch up on all their neighborhood “pee-mails.” Always a relief to return to happy pups, even though they’re already plotting our next trip so they can get Jadarius to come back!
I cannot recommend Maddison highly enough! She took incredible good care of my dogs while I was away, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands.She stayed at my home, followed all of my instructions perfectly, and kept everything clean and well-maintained. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved the attention and care they received. She aslo sent pics and was great at communicating while I was away! Will definitely be using Maddison again in the future!
I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer! I was in a tough spot looking for a last-minute sitter for my dog, who has high anxiety and isn’t friendly with other dogs. Out of several requests I sent, Jennifer was the only one who responded and actually wanted to meet my dog first. That alone showed her dedication and care. She took the time to come meet my pup, made her feel safe, and handled everything so calmly and professionally. Knowing my dog was in such good hands gave me peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy some much-needed quality time with my children while they were in town. Jennifer is 100% reliable, compassionate, and truly goes above and beyond. I’m so grateful I found her and absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Rossville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rossville on Rover is $66.6 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 494 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rossville. 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 Rossville 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 Rossville 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 Rossville 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.
