“Betty was excellent! Came out prior to sitting our dog for a meet and greet. Gave us great updates and pictures. Walked and played fetch daily. Couldn’t ask for any better!”
“Sommer was very dependable and detail oriented which was important to me! She also provided excellent communication and quick response time when communicating!! My cat is usually depressed, stressed, and distances himself from us when we return from vacationing. It usually takes him several days to warm back up to us but he was not that way at all this time!! I would give Sommer 10 stars if it was an option.”
“Morgan is always great with our pups! The pups are always excited to see her and get plenty of play and exercise time while she's with them. You can tell Morgan really cares about them. Will continue booking with Morgan!”
“Kendal did a great job with my babies!! They warmed up to her very quick. She sent plenty of pictures throughout the stay and was continuously responsive :) She left the house the same way I left it. We will definitely be booking with her again :)”
“Violet did an excellent job house‑sitting and caring for our Sadie while we were away. She was responsive, responsible, and kept us updated throughout our trip. We felt completely confident having her in our home and trusted her with our dog’s care.”
“An amazing sitter. I would recommend her to pet sit more. For a beginner, she's sweet and understanding. And ask me questions about my dog and cat. Takes good pictures of my pets.”
“We cannot say enough great things about Blanca. She cared for our home and dogs for three and half days and did an amazing job! We came home to a clean house, clean dogs, and she even worked on some training with them!! They had her full undivided attention the entire time and were so spoiled with cuddles, long walks, and playtime! We would recommend her 100 times over and will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you so much, Blanca!”
About: I am an animal lover to the max. I have been a pet sitter for some years now and have enjoyed it all from training young pets to caring for our more senior animals. I am currently working from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets and tend to their needs. I would be happy to bring your pet along with me in my day to day. I have an unfenced, private yard and a puppy to keep your pets company. I can crate your dog if needed, and I have ample space to give them whatever space they need to feel comfortable.
“Mckayla did a great job with our two dogs, a large pit bull and small terrier mix. She is thorough and very confident with dogs. She sent lots of pics and updates while we were gone for three days. Very respectful of our space, left everything clean and how it was before we left. Will book again ☺️”
About: Ive been around pets all my life! I started raising dogs when I was 11 and have helped friends and nieghbors with their dogs and cats since I was 15. Tasks have ranged from small check-ins with pets, to staying overnight to keep them company. Right now I work at a local food pantry on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sundays are also a busy day for me, but I can be very flexible and move times around with enough notice. I have one black short haired cat that I spend most of my time with. She stays indoors, but I let her come out on my back deck to get some air and a better view of the birds and chipmunks she always has beef with. She's the most hyperactive and persnicity cat I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, so I'm experienced with cats who have their own ways of playing.
“Sophie communicated well, was on time and took great care of our pups while we were gone. I was nervous because we hadn’t left them with anyone before but Sophie took care of everything and was a pleasure.”
“I booked Sophia at the last minute because another Rover cancelled. She responded to my request quickly and we did a meet and greet the next day. She kept my two energetic aussies active with walks and playtime. She sent me photos and videos that gave me peace of mind while on our trip. We arrived home to a clean house and happy dogs. I plan to book her again.”
“Laurin was great! She stayed at our house to watch our 2 dogs. She was very communicative and sent several updates/photos while we were away; I never had to ask how things were going. She left our house neat and clean (and washed our bed sheets)! Our dogs are happy and seem like they had a great, stress-free weekend! We'll definitely be reaching out to Laurin again in the future.”
“Adoni is always FABULOUS! My babies love her and she is always reliable and communicative. I can leave home and know that my babies are taken care of. I really appreciate having Adoni to take care of my rowdy pup and old lady kitty.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have taken care of turtles, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, dogs and cats. I have dealt with new born dogs and elder care for dogs kittens and older cats. I have clipped nails and worked around many health concerns. I am excited to meet your animal(s) and give it the love it deserves. I am currently a student at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. My current schedule works out so that I am only taking classes in the morning from 8 - 11pm. This allows me all afternoon to spend with your pet. Most days I am free from class and only have a short meeting to attend. I am very flexible in my schedule. I have dog sat before for over a week and am able to build a good rapport with you dog making sure that they feel safe and loved where they are most comfortable.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Summerfield
We enjoyed our leaving the house for the first time in years. Cassie is the best sitter we have ever had. I would highly recommend her services to those who have had bad experiences with other sitters to give her the opportunity to help you go on a vacation or whatever and not worry about your pets. Thank you Cassie.

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 Summerfield 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 Summerfield 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Summerfield 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.
