About: My name is Charizma Williams. I’ve pet-sitted for my sister’s friend and with my best friend on and off for 3 years. I grew up helping take care of farm animals, cats, and dogs. I love taking care of animals. I’ll treat them like my very own. Your fur babies will be in good hands. I’ll make sure to send you lots of updates on how they’re doing!! I’m unemployed looking for my first job, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies, play with them and meet all of their needs. I make sure to take care of them with lots of love, gentleness, and kindness. If needed, I can crate them, and if they have any specific requirements, I’ll make sure those are met.
About: I am a dedicated and passionate pet caretaker with over 10 years of experience, specializing in providing top-quality care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, grooming, or simply spending quality time with them, I take pride in ensuring each dog feels loved, comfortable, and well-cared for. My years of experience have allowed me to develop a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, and needs, ensuring that every pup under my care receives personalized attention and the best possible care. I truly love dogs of all shapes and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior companions who need extra patience and care. I believe that every dog deserves kindness, consistency, and a safe environment to thrive. Whether it's an active dog that enjoys long runs or a cuddle-loving companion who prefers quiet time, I adapt to their individual personalities and routines. My goal is to build trust with both pets and their owners, giving them peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in loving and capable hands. I am pet caretaker with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care for pets whenever needed. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I can adjust my availability to fit the needs of both pets and their owners. I understand that every pet has unique routines and requirements, and I’m committed to ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to make pet care stress-free by being dependable, adaptable, and always putting the well-being of the animals first. With over a decade of experience in pet caretaking, I have developed the skills and knowledge needed to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for animals of all kinds. My hands-on experience has taught me how to read pet behavior, recognize signs of stress or illness, and respond calmly in any situation. Pet owners can trust that their furry companions are in capable hands, whether it's ensuring their safety on walks, administering basic care routines, or simply providing comfort and companionship. My years of dedication to pet care have given me a deep understanding of animals' needs, making me a dependable and knowledgeable caretaker who always puts their well-being first.

“Mandy was wonderful !!! We have 4 dogs, two seniors both deaf and partially blind and two young one under two years old. We were out of state at a family wedding. She sent pictures and updates during our visit. She is quick to respond to any inquires and will ask for clarification if she needed it. Our dogs were hardly excited to see us upon our return. They were very happy in their normal space but with their new favorite human. We will happily use her again and again.”
About: I have always had a substantially great amount of love for animals. I grew up on the rural area of town and we always had cats, dogs, chickens, horses etc. I would like to consider myself as a very reliable and responsible individual. I treat all animals I interact with as if they are my own. I am a stay at home mom so most of the times that I am watching dogs or cats my son will be around as well, so i prefer any large dogs to be on the calmer side. Unfortunately, where I currently live does not accept any animals therefore I won’t be able to watch any dogs or cats in my home. I am a stay at home mom doing online school so I have plenty of time do watch and play with animals. My 2 year old son will be with me most of the time so hopefully that needs to be kept in mind while booking with me. He loves all animals as well and knows how to be gentle with them. I am a very attentive person and am good at following tasks that may have to be provided for any animals. That being said I am also sympathetic when it comes to other people’s pets. I understand and I can adapt to the behavior of dogs and cats, whether they are energetic or mellow.
“Alec was amazing! He was great at communicating and sending pictures of our two dogs. He made sure they were fed, taken out routinely and loved on. He also left our house cleaner than we left it! I would highly recommend Alec to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Summitview is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Summitview
We have booked Olivia to stay in our home with 3 dogs for two separate occasions and we have had a great experience both times! Olivia is very attentive to our dogs needs and stays in contact during the stay with photos and updates. Each time we arrive back home, the dogs are well cared for and our home is left in great shape.
I am so impressed by Lyn. They were on time, cheerful, listened to the care instructions intently, and greeted Sophie with joy and kindness. Sophie is normally nervous for me to leave her, but this time she didn't bat an eye. She knew she was in good hands. Lyn sent pictures and responded quickly to check ins. When we arrived home I could tell that Sophie really enjoyed her time with Lyn. I can't recommend them enough to care for your pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Summitview is $38 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $61 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.
As of October 2026, there are 155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Summitview. 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 Summitview 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 Summitview 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 Summitview 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 99% 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.
