“Kaylee was great! This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous, but Kaylee was able to watch my dog Leo on short notice and make me feel confident my boy was in good hands 😊. She came on time, gave me updates, and took excellent care of Leo! I would definitely book with her again. Thank you Kaylee!”
About: Hi, I’m Hanna, and I love animals all shapes and sizes! I grew up surrounded by all sorts of pets and helped care for them by the age of 7! I have since had 15 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats! I prioritize meeting the animals needs of each client I have. For those with more energy, I love going for walks, hiking, and playing fetch! I am also content to bask in the sun or curl up with the older and calmer pets too! If I sound like a good fit for your pet, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work full-time M-F 8-5 with a flexible lunch break to allow visits and potty breaks for the pets I care for. This addition to my schedule is to add some extra fun and adventure to my days. Plus I love all the pets, but currently do not have any of my own to enjoy. I have house sat for many people including family, neighbors, and other folks like you for the past 4 years! I keep a careful eye on those with a yard and enjoy taking all pets out for some fresh air and new smells on walks! I’m very adaptable and flexible with every environment and take the necessary precautions to ensure all pets safety at all times when I am caring for them.
About: Pet sitting was one of the first jobs I ever took up. Along with my family being a pet owner household, I’ve taken care of many family members pets and also friends of family pets. I am a reoccurring pet sitter with almost everyone I’ve helped before. I’m currently a full time college student, but my classes only take up so much of my time. I have classes on Monday/Wednesday/Friday from 10am-11am. In October, I will start a new class on Tuesday/Thursday from 1pm-4pm. If I’m requested to stay in the home, I will move whatever I need to do to fit comfortably around me keeping your pet company. It’s my responsibility to meet the needs of the owner and their pet!
“Patricia watch our two dogs Dora and Spark for over a week. This was the first time we had Patricia as our house/dog sitter and we will definitely request her services again. Patricia sent us pictures and kept us updated about the dogs. She promptly answered any of my emails and contacted us if she had any questions. Patricia also watered plants, feed the fish, and picked up the mail. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. I highly recommend Patricia.”
“Kayla did a fantastic job! I’ve never hired a pet sitter before, so I was really nervous about how my animals would do. She was very reassuring and sent me pictures and updates every day. She did fantastically with the dogs, especially my really anxious one. I appreciated how attentive she was to my dogs’ health. She let me know quickly when one of them inevitably puked from stress and made sure they were both happy and tired before leaving for the day.”
“Daysi was great. She handles our big lab pups and gave us lots of updates throughout the weekend. We will use her again. We highly recommend Daysi for overnight stays.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 10, as the neighborhood dog sitter! I worked as an animal specialist at PetSmart throughout college and have a great love for all animals. As a dog mom of 3 rescues I totally understand in importance in showing everyone love, especially those who struggle with separation anxiety. I am extremely patient and love giving amazing belly rubs and really long walks! I am currently a stay at home dog mom so picking up mid day check ins is fairly easy for me! I have three rescue dogs of my own and truly understand the importance of a mid day potty/play break! I will take care of your pet like they are my own! If that means your dog has to sleep under the blanket they are more the welcome to keep my feet warm!
About: Hey hey! I love all animals but I'm partial to dogs. I have 2 of my own, both chihuahuas. They're 6 and 7 years old. I've had pets all my life. Large and small. I have quite a bit of experience in training and I love working on puppy manners. I have a soft spot for small dogs and pit bulls! I can't wait to meet your babies! I currently am home full time. I am a hobby bakery. I need to get moving around more so I'm available to meet up to 2-3 times per day every day and weekly if needed. I don't usually care for other people's pets in my home. I prefer to do drop in visits and sit in the home of the owners.
“Amy and John are as good as it gets - such excellent pet and house sitters! We have no worries when they are at are home caring for our dogs. Our dogs were happy, well cared for and loved, as seen in their daily pictures that we were able to view. Our house was clean and tidy when we got home (cleaner than we left it!). We can't recommend Amy and John highly enough.”
“Jordan did a wonderful job watching my three dogs! Great communication and happy to work around my dogs boundaries that aren’t socialized to one of the dogs in the household. My dogs would definitely recommend booking again”
About: I’ve always been around dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m an active and responsible caregiver who enjoys spending quality time with dogs, whether that means going for walks, playing, getting some exercise, or simply relaxing together. I’m attentive to the little things that help dogs feel comfortable and happy, including maintaining their normal feeding and walking routines, providing plenty of attention, and making sure they get the care they need while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and personalities and will take the time to learn what works best for your pet. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m currently fully available at all hours and can provide consistent, reliable care whenever you need it. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone’s pet. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m attentive to their needs, keep a close eye on them, and always follow any instructions you leave for me. In your home, I’ll also be respectful of your space and leave everything just as I found it. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable and confident while your pet is in my care.
About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 25 years and currently have two spunky Chihuahuas who keep me laughing every day. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to big bundles of energy. I know how important it is to feel at ease while your pup is with someone else, so I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and cared for. I also have experience with senior dogs and pups that need a little extra patience or medication, so you can trust they’ll be in good hands. At the end of the day, I believe dogs are the best friends in the world, and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I also live close by to Tanger outlets and the Burlington area. I have a yard for my dogs to run, play with toys and fetch. Also I enjoy walking trails at the local parks or arboretum.
About: I began my journey learning about responsible pet care and dog training when I was ten years old and enrolled in 4H with my puppy. Since that early age I have gained professional experience in vet clinics, pet stores, and as a professional dog jogger. I did extensive research on positive reinforcement training when I adopted my shy, border collie mix puppy in 2020 and am a strong believer in its ability to form strong bonds and trust with any pet. I currently have a remote job that gives me open flexibility. I can also make evening visits and overnights stays throughout the week. I can work from your home on my laptop when I am pet/house sitting, providing a lot of companionship for your best friend! I will care for the pets in your home, where they feel most comfortable. I am open to developing pet care in my home for doggy daycare. I have a large fenced yard and am located right next to Cedarock Rock. I walk our dogs there almost daily. Our young dog Hugo would love a dog to play with!
“Tammi is an excellent pet sitter! I will definitely ask her to come again. She was very attentive to Sunny and sent me daily updates while we were away for a long Memorial Day weekend at the beach. I felt very comfortable having Tammi in my home and know Sunny was very well cared for and she left my hone in better condition than when she arrived! Thanks for taking such good care of my dog and our home. I really appreciate all the love and attention for Sunny!”
“Chevaughn did an amazing job! One of my dogs (Toffee) is 'very' skittish & does not warm up to new people well (it often takes weeks - sometimes months - for people just to be able to pet her). However, when we did the first meet & greet, Toffee was curious & got close enough to sniff him, which I thought was a great sign. But then... Chevaughn was actually able to pet her before leaving. She was wary, but let him. It kinda shocked me a bit. We had met with 2 other potential sitters & Toffee wouldn't get near them. With one of them, she wouldn't even come inside the house from the yard, not even for a treat, so long as the lady was there. Chevaughn has great energy, though. He was calm & assertive, moved gently around Carlee & Toffee, and they both became fast friends with him. While we were away, he even sent video of her licking his hand. That was a huge deal... Chevaughn was reliable, on time, consistent & most importantly, he is kind. Next time we need a sitter, he's our guy and I highly recommend him for taking care of your pups..”

Chazney is such a loving & detailed sitter! She always goes above and beyond when taking care of my kitties. I always come home to a clean home and two happy, relaxed cats. I don’t worry at all when away from my kitties or home when Chazney is watching them, plus we love all of the sweet cat photos & thorough updates! Thank you again!
Lily took such wonderful care of my dog. She kept me updated regularly, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She is incredibly pleasant to talk to and clearly loves what she does. When we arrived, she had even baked us the most amazing cake—a thoughtful touch that made us feel so welcome. I would highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.
We are so grateful for the care she gave to our dog, Teddy, and our cat, Garfield, while we were away. Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but she made the experience stress-free for us. We can’t thank her enough for her reliability and kindness. We would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!

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 Swepsonville 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 Swepsonville 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 Swepsonville 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.
