“Our first time using Rover was a complete success. We had Zarah stay with our furbabies and she made the whole process so easy and we felt at ease. Zarah took the time to get to know our girls, we have a Senior dog with cognitive issues and a one year old puppy, she was so kind and caring with them. We appreciate Zarah so much and will definitely be using her services again in the near future.”

About: Hello! My name is Nita, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be delighted to care for your pets as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve had experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, fish, guinea pigs, and even mice. Our beloved Border Collie, Jasmine, was part of our family for 12 wonderful years, and she gave us countless happy memories. I also regularly cared for my grand dog a sweet Lab mix, Benny. I currently share my home with our spirited lovebird, Gourdon Loveblossom, who is 3½ years old. We even had a goldfish named Goldie who recently passed away amazingly at 23 years old! I’m also a proud “grand-cat” sitter for HB and Kenny in Monroe. They especially enjoy being pushed around the neighborhood in their stroller on beautiful days. I walk a minimum of 10,000 steps every day and would truly enjoy having furry companions join me for walks and outdoor time. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, feeding, stroller walks, playtime, or simply gentle loving care while you’re away, I would be happy to help. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routines, and comfort needs, and I always aim to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pets! I have a part time voiceover and photo businesses that I run from my home in Roxbury. I frequently care for my children's pets. I am reliable and punctual, I prefer to live in the same area near my clients. I like to keep my pet care visits in a 10-ish mile radius of my home. This enables me to get to them fast without worrying about traffic, distance or delays.
“Ian was the absolute best! He stayed at our house with our 2 dogs for 5 days. I received regular updates and pictures of them- which was so appreciated and needed being so far away from them. I’d have Ian back in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and have genuinely loved every one! I previously worked as a babysitter and nanny, and the family dog was often part of my responsibilities—which was always one of my favorite parts of the job. I’ve also dog sat for families while they were away on trips, and it quickly became something I really enjoyed. Dogs always seem to be excited when I arrive, and the feeling is definitely mutual—they instantly put a huge smile on my face! I grew up with a Goldendoodle who was part of my family for 13 wonderful years until a few months ago, and he truly was my absolute favorite. Loving and caring for him taught me just how special dogs are and how deeply they become part of the family. I miss him every single day, and I would love the opportunity to have dogs be part of my everyday life again while giving your pup all the love and attention they deserve. I work as a mental health therapist, and there really is nothing quite like the love and comfort a dog brings. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I truly love them all—big or small! I’ll treat your dog with the same love, attention, patience, and care I would want for my own. I work full-time as a mental health therapist, but I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule that I can adjust around pet care. I’m able to arrange my day so I can stop by for potty breaks, walks, and quality time throughout the day. When needed, I can also adjust my work hours by going in a little later or leaving earlier so your dog isn’t spending long stretches of time alone. I love having the flexibility to make sure the dogs I care for get plenty of attention, companionship, and time with a human! I’m happy to care for pets in their own home. I would make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while I am with them. I’m a very clean and tidy person, so I’ll always clean up after both your dog and myself and be respectful of your home and routine. I’ll follow any feeding, walking, potty, medication, or other care instructions you provide and make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention. And fair warning—they may get a little tooooo much love and attention from me! I love spending time with dogs and want them to feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“This was my first time using Rover & I could not have had a better experience with Jillian. She came by to meet us ahead of the overnight stay and my dogs took to her immediately. Jillian is kind, caring & truly loves animals. It’s never easy leaving your pets with someone you don’t know but I felt very comfortable with Jillian knowing they were in good hands. My house was just as clean as when I left it and she even stayed longer than requested. I will absolutely book with Jillian again.”

“Leonne was absolutely amazing with our dog, Meelo, for an overnight sit. She was extremely professional, communicative and clearly has a deep love for animals. My dog is large and high energy and she seemed confortable and confident. I came back to a very happy pup and a home exactly as I left it. I would not hesitate to reach out to Leonne again for a future sit!”

“I have found my person! Emily is a true animal lover. She took wonderful care of my chocolate lab and my cat peanut. (my other cat just hides all the time.). It allowed me to be away with my family without worry or concern. The schedule that I have with my dog is pretty rigorous and she followed it without fail. I am so grateful to her and will 1000% ask her to come watch my animals again.”


“Leah did a fantastic job, especially given we had to skip a meet-and-greet due to my last-minute request. She committed to an arrival and departure time, asked good questions to fill in gaps in her understanding of Lasha's schedule, and sent pictures throughout the day. Would absolutely ask her watch our pup again!”


“Alex was awesome housesitting for us and our two rescues. He was accommodating and has a soothing way about him which is great for the dogs. He administered pills and even hand fed our fussy girl. We are definitely using him again … if he will have us!”

“Our first time with Zach and hopefully not our last. He was punctual, reliable and so attentive to our older dog who needs some extra care and patience. Zach sent lots of updates and photos throughout his stay. He followed Kona’s schedule to a T and even came back for an extra walk last minute the next day.”

FAQs for House Sitting - South Britain
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,813 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Britain. 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 South Britain 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 South Britain 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 South Britain 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.
