“Caroline was amazing! My cat’s quite shy and she did everything to make her feel welcomed, including just sitting around and keeping her company every time she visited (even when my cat didn’t make an appearance). Made me feel a lot better knowing my cat was in very good hands, I would 1000% book her again in the future!!”
“Noelle was awesome with our kitties. Sent many pictures and took time to play with them. She also maintained great communication with us and kept us updated. Thank you so much for helping us out Noelle! Would highly recommend Noelle to anyone!”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I treat them like family and take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs. I’m patient with shy or nervous pets and love keeping them happy, comfortable, and engaged while their people are away. As a professional pet groomer, I also bring extra experience with handling pets, reading body language, and noticing changes in their health or behavior. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness always come first! 🐾❤️ Pet care naturally fits into my daily life! I care for my four furbabies every day, making sure they receive plenty of attention, enrichment, exercise, and love. I also work as a professional pet groomer, so caring for animals is both my passion and my profession. Your pets would be in caring, experienced hands! 🥰🐾 I take advantage of my fenced yard or my clients, if my client doesn’t have a fenced yard then I insure that harness and leash are safe before starting a walk, I make sure nothing remains on the floor for pets to eat that is bad, I have kennels if needed.
About: Hi! I'm Kat, a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I've shared my life with six rescue dogs over the years, and every one of them stayed with me for life. I've also had several cats, and an Off-the-Track Thoroughbred, so I'm comfortable around animals with unique backgrounds and personalities. Today I have three wonderful dogs of my own, including Pippa, who has separation anxiety. Caring for her has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and paying attention to each dog's individual comfort level. I've also worked with rescue dogs that had behavioral challenges, so I understand that every pet is different and deserves compassionate care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or just likes things done a certain way, I'll treat them with the same care and respect I'd want for my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Mid-day 11am-2pm Evening: 5pm-7:00pm Late-night drop-ins only: 9:30pm to 11:30pm I love meeting new furry friends! My schedule is flexible, including evenings and holidays, so I'm often available when other sitters aren't. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I'll follow your care instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship. During walks, your pet's safety is my top priority, and I'll always pay attention to their comfort, pace, and surroundings. For drop-in visits, I'm happy to provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles (if they're interested!), and lots of updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.
“This was our third time booking Ariana for drop-in visits, and she continues to be amazing! Nickle and Dax are always so comfortable with her, and we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such caring and reliable hands. She’s communicative, dependable, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely keep booking with her!”
About: I love animals and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats! I’m dependable and will treat them like family! Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am active and enjoy spending time outdoors. I recently graduated college and currently have a flexible schedule while working part-time. So I have plenty of time to give pets attention, walks, playtime, and consistent care! I always prioritize trust and creating a comfortable environment for every pet. I have two friendly dogs of my own. I have played coach attention to routines, instructions and other pets personality to help them feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Communication and dependable care are all very important to me.
“Andrhu was so kind and flexible. When access to the house was unavailable, at my poor planning, he was incredibly understanding and accommodating. It is more appreciated than he may know. He was very thorough as well during his drop in visits for our 2 pups.”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, compassionate animal lover who understands that pets are family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it's long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or sticking to your pet's normal routine, I'm committed to providing personalized care that fits their needs. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I'm patient with shy pups while keeping up with the most energetic ones. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout our time together. You can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority alongside my full-time job. I carefully manage my schedule so I can provide reliable, attentive care before and after work, as well as evenings, weekends, and holidays. When I'm with your pet, they have my full attention—whether that means going for a walk, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them the love and companionship they deserve. I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so you can feel confident your pet is receiving dependable, quality care every visit When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special care your pet requires. I also make sure your home is left just as I found it, and I'll send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. During walks, your dog's safety is always my top priority. Whether your pup enjoys a leisurely stroll or a more active adventure, I'll tailor each walk to their energy level and needs. I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise, fresh water when needed, and lots of positive attention while keeping them safe and comfortable every step of the way
About: I've lived on a hobby farm most of my life. My mother is a dog trainer and I would attend classes regularly, along with helping run the dog rescue. I know most basics of veterinary care and how to calmly react when an animal needs care. I love animals and take pride in doing things well. Animals respect and love me because I approach them with calm authority, love, and understanding. I respect my surroundings and always leave a home in better conditions than it was when I arrived. I would love to get the chance to know your pets while you enjoy your time, knowing your fur babies are safe and happy... with daily pictures and updates! :). We have a pomski and a young corgi. I am here when you need me. :) please just let me know 1 day prior for changes. I have 2 large fenced yards. I am here for you and your fur baby to have fun, educational, and peaceful vacations. :) There is most always an adult in the home as there are 2 disabled people who do not work, so your pet will be cared for 24/7 We care for your pet as one of our own. If there is a behavior such as jumping, we work in that during the stay.
“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
About: Pets have always been an important part of my life since I was a kid. I have had cats and dogs my entire life, I am 50 now. I have raised and trained many puppies & kittens and continued to care for them as they became seniors, some with health issues, such as cancer and kidney failure, that required special care and love. I love caring for pets as they rely on us for everything and I believe they should all be well taken care of and happy & healthy throughout their entire lives. We currently have a 15 year old cat that we rescued 11 years ago. Sadly, our dog recently passed or we would have one of each. I am truly an animal lover. I work from home selling baseball cards and collectibles so I have complete flexibility to care for your pets at the times that you and they need me. I have had pets my entire life so I am very familiar with the different care that each pet can need. They all have their own personalities and I am good with all types of animals. From high anxiety pets, I had my own, to the easy to care for and every kind in between. Whether it's your dogs or cats, I will care for yours as I have always cared for my own, with lots of love and attention.
“Kelli was great with my pet and I would recommend her to anyone! She was very kind and professional when I met her for a meet and great to go over my pets needs. My cat is ill and requires medication daily and while I was gone I wanted someone who was familiar with administrating or able to give my cat his medication. I find that Kelli went above my expectations and I was so happy that I have a happy and healthy cat to come home to.”

Nikki really is awesome! We actually utilized someone else while she was taking some time away and it was even more apparent how great she is. She’s consistent, reliable and has great communication. Our pup enjoys her check-ins to help break up his day. Highly recommend 😊
Natalie was did some drop in visit with my babies for me and she was amazing!! 🥹 Our dog Thunder can be really shy and nervous and she took the time to make sure that he was comfortable with her and went potty each time! She fed our kitties and even cleaned up the mess from our special needs boy trying to eat! (He gets kibble everywhere). Constant pictures were sent which was gave me such peace of mind that our babies were well taken care of. Natalie even went above and beyond and did some of our dishes! We’re so looking forward to continuing to work with her! We have a 4 day housesitting job booked for the last week of the month and we couldn’t feel more at ease that she’ll take care of our babies the way we would. Thank you Natalie❤️❤️
Samantha was great! On the last day of our trip our rascal pups got all muddy in the yard and she helped clean them up and make sure our home wasnt too dirty when we got back. We didnt ask, she was just helpful and thoughtful without a word or hesitation. Awesome!
From my early labor to an emergency surgery (3 months apart), Mikaila went above and beyond to be available to help care for our dogs. She was communicative, reliable, and incredibly kind. It gave our family peace of mind knowing our dogs were well cared for during such a stressful time.
Tiantian was absolutely wonderful! I am so extremely grateful to have had her watch my little old lady pup while I was away. She was extremely punctual, compassionate, and attentive. I got stuck in the northeast due to a blizzard and she was so accommodating and willing to do 4 more visits that were not originally scheduled. Her flexibility was the reason my pupper was cared for and comfortable during all of the craziness. I got home this evening and the house was tidy, my pup was asleep, and I felt so relieved. I would 10000% rebook and recommend that you do as well!!!!

Tabatha has done a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my two senior dogs, one with special needs! She was always attentive to signs they were giving her and adjusted what she did to meet those needs. She also put in extra effort when one of the dogs got sick and was able to work with me on my fluctuating schedule that sometimes needed last minute adjustments. Always communicative!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Hill 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in South Hill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
