“The only person for my boy, Tex. Great communication, extremely kind, follows all requests to a T and they were copious: from keepijg his tv playlist goijg to making aure his dumb but doesnt walk in front of car out of nowhere...he does ( and he apparently did), and she accommodated 3 different schedule changes. Highly recommend and completely trusted for in home as the old man has terrible anxiety...and so does Tex!”
“Zana was a fantastic sitter, she sent me frequent updates and pictures. The house was left in great shape and most importantly, I know my Dottie got all the love and care she needed!”
“Cassie stayed with my dog for two nights. She was communicative and was able to make my anxious dog comfortable, administered her meds, and left the house spotless!”
“Robyn has been wonderful, and both my dog and bunny liked her immediately. I had a trip planned that turned into total confusion and cancellation. Robyn was so understanding with my circumstances. I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She did a wonderful job of taking care of LouLou She also left the house in great order and kept me updated with LouLou. I would definitely use her again.”
“This is our second time having Elliot stay with our Bear while we were away. He is a dog whisperer! Bear is huge, leans towards reactivity and Elliot handles all aspects of his care beautifully. I highly recommend Elliot. He makes being away from our big Bear worry free!”
“Right from the Meet and Greet we were very impressed with Michael - he asked some great questions about our dogs and their behaviors/routines that were an immediate indication he knows dogs well. We have two Australian Shepherds, an older Aussie with some reactivity, and a younger Aussie who is still in training and with tons of energy. He kept them engaged, active, and worked on some training. If he can manage our crazy boys, I'm confident he can handle just about any dogs! He provided dog/house sitting for 1 night/2 days, and we're already booking him for future trips.”
About: I am an enthusiastic pet lover and have lots of experience walking dogs. I am temporarily living in Parkville, MD. I am accepting one-time or temporary repeat clients (around 3 months). I currently have no pets but love spending time with dogs and cats. I work outside of 9-5 work hours, and am often off during the week, so my schedule is flexible. I will ensure to provide a safe and comfortable experience for your pet. I am unable to bring your pet into my own home but am adaptable and willing to work with you on caring for your furry friend at your residence.
“Andrew was very communicative and followed all of our instructions for our pets and the house. He also sent lots of pictures which was greatly appreciated as we deeply missed our buddies!!”
About: I am currently a school counselor in my 23rd year of service and trying to make some extra income. I love all animals. I have a cat and a border collie and Shih Tzu mix that my family and I recently rescued. I also have a 16 year old daughter who loves animals. I am reliable, flexible, patient, and caring. I have had a dog or cat my entire life. I have cared for many other people’s animals for them over the years. I have given dogs and cats insulin shots and also given medications if needed. I love taking walks and going to the multiple parks in the area. My neighbor is very pet-friendly and walkable. I will treat your pet as my own for the time I am watching them and give it lots of love and affection and care.
“Grace was so sweet with my Maggie girl. She was great with communicating updates and genuinely wanted Maggie to feel comfortable while I was away. It made my trip stress free knowing she was in good hands :)”
“Nico is great! She took wonderful care of our energetic puppy and kitten for 5 days & nights. She sent us updates every day with cute pictures. We will definitely book her again. Ralphie & Lucy”
“Tabitha is WONDERFUL! My dog is very emotionally needy (has anxiety), and I needed a sitter very last minute. Tabitha came to the rescue and was so attentive with Franny and did such a good job with her! I really trust her and i can’t wait to use her again 🙂”
“Jasmine did a great job watching Joey at our house for the weekend we were gone. She followed all instructions, was highly communicative, and we came home to a happy, healthy dog and a clean house. Highly recommend her!”
“Ariel was able to work through a few minor issues at the house on my behalf while on vacation (unrelated to the pet sitting). The house was clean and tidy when we arrived home and all animals seem to have been well cared for.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rossville
Delayna was amazing. I have an older shepherd who required patience and gentleness. Delayna was incredibly gentle with my dog and continued to communicate with me throughout her stay at my home. She also was very respectful of my home. Would definitely recommend her services and use her services again. I felt as if my pet was loved during her stay.
Stokeley did a great job with my dog Rocky. Rocky is older with heath issues and special food requirements, and Stokeley had no issues with the needed care for Rocky. He kept in constant contact with me and gave me regular updates on how Rocky and the day was going. I'd recommend Stokeley for pet sitting and will be using him again for my next trip away.
This is the second time we have used Lauryn. My dog Autumn absolutely adores her. This was a two week break and she was happy to sit again for me and for my sister. I have two parrots and my sister has one. Lots of people won’t housesit for parrots. Lauryn has so no problem doing it. She is very reliable and gives you updates and pictures while you are away. Highly recommend her for your housesitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Rossville is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $31 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.

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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rossville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
