“Kurstin was amazing ! She kept me up to date on my pets daily and sent pictures. This was my first experience having someone watch over my reactive dog who can be a menace on the leash and she handled her perfectly! Has experience watching small pets and reptiles as well!”
“Alaina helped us out last minute. We had never used her before, but she was wonderful! Updated us daily with pics - was quick to respond - even took care of one our boys when he cut his paw on something in the backyard. When we got home from our travels the boys were super happy! Definitely feel comfortable having her watch my boys again!”
“If you're like us, we look for care providers with multiple reviews so we have a better idea of who we're hiring. But everyone needs to start somewhere, and this time we decided to give someone a chance who hadn't received reviews yet; boy did we luck out. Jaina did a fantastic job looking after our 80 pound loverboy, Luca. She stayed in our home while we were away five days, and both he--and our home--were well taken care of. He even got a daily walk (in winter, no less!). Jaina is who you want in a sitter: responsive, reliable and kind. She provided daily updates and photos of our dog, too. We would hire her again, and suggest you do too before people catch on and her rates go up.”
“Whitney watched our older dog for about a week when we were on a family vacation. We were very nervous due to Millie's age and health. Whitney was amazing, checked in regularly, gave Millie her medicine, and accommodated our less then ideal flight schedule. We would absolutely ask Whitney to watch our home and Millie again.”
“Tony was super communicated and kept us updated about how our fur children were through out our time away. He was very good at handling our dog (who needs medication twice a day) and was pleasant to meet! 10/10 would recommend! Will definitely book with him again!”
“My dog is anxious and takes time to warm up to people and Aimee did a great job helping him get comfortable before and during the trip. She was an excellent communicator with us while we were gone!”
“Matt was professional, thorough, and most importantly he made Denali feel comfortable while we were gone. He took the time to come over twice before our trip to meet Denali, which made it easier to leave knowing Denali was in good hands. He provided daily updates with pictures and left our house spotless. We’ll be using him again and would recommend Matt to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“First time using Lauren and she was on time and followed all the instructions I left for her . She is very personable and my pups connected with her . She had a very long day stuck inside due to snowstorm and was still cheerful when we came home! I highly recommend her!”
“Max is a wonderful sitter! We love him and our dogs love him. He really cares and takes the time with your pets. Not just letting them out to potty and feeding, but actually taking the time to interact and play with them. He has his own pups and is a very knowledgeable trainer. I would give Max way more than five stars if I could and I highly recommend him to take care of your pets as well.”
“I’m so grateful for Brittney’s care of my two dogs and two cats during the Christmas week.From the start, she was responsible, reliable and kind. She visited our house twice a day, even during Christmas. Gave my cat medication properly and gently.She left my home clean and tidy. Most importantly, my furry babies felt safe and happy with her. They bonded with Brittney so quickly, and could see they were in wonderful hands. Her calm presence and reliability gave us peace of mind while we were away of the country and it’s so good to have now someone we can trust when a new trip comes. Our schedule changed several times and I’m so grateful for her flexibility and patience! I will definitely hire Brittney again! Thank you Brittney for everything - you made a world of difference for us!”
“Bailey is an excellent sitter. She watched our dogs and house for 6 days and I couldn't be happier with her services. One of our dogs is elderly and needs special assistance, and Bailey was so caring and careful with her. Our other dog caused some trouble while we were gone, and Bailey handled it with grace and patience. She is dependable, nice, trustworthy, responsive, great with the dogs, and left our house in perfect condition. Most importantly, the dogs really like her! I appreciate the ease of mind she gave me, and I would definitely book her again.”
About: I have been dog sitting for 10+ years, all shapes, ages & sizes. I helped train/walk my neighbors therapy dog while I was in high school and I was Involved in a club at The Ohio State University called Guiding Eyes for the Blind. I trained, walked and sat dogs of ages 2 months and up that then get assigned to someone in need of help. I have also worked at a vet hospital assisting/watching the doctor during procedures, check-ups and client visits. I love working with dogs/cats and always learning new training techniques. I love watching them grow and learn to become wonderful, well behaved dogs/cats. I love playing and being active with dogs and/or cats and giving them as much attention as they need/want. Your mind will be free of worry while you're away. Your cute furry family member will have the best care and the most attention you could possibly hope for. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs myself to approve of that! :) I work from home so I have plenty of time throughout the day to attend to your furry babies! Potty breaks, walks during lunch, etc! I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs to keep your pup company! I also have a crate if needed. Can accommodate to any normal routines at home.
“Chelsea was beyond amazing. Immaculate communication and she sent me so many pics of my kids!! Even with the crazy storm, she still made it to our home and that was such a relief to know our kids were looked after. Chelsea goes above and beyond (she shoveled our driveway and helped a neighbor get unstuck). Would absolutely hire her again!”
“We had Alexea for a long weekend. I would highly recommend her to watch your cat or dog. She took great care of my 2 kitties and the house. She sent us pictures of be our cats and watered all our plants outside. We came home to a perfect house!!”
“Christy was so on top of things and went above and beyond when taking care of my pup for four days. She sent tons of photos each day without us asking and it was very sweet :)”
About: I have taken care of pets for nearly 10 years. From Dogs to cat to even birds. I’m the person that will walk your dog in the snow and enjoy it. I am also the person that will play with your cat for an hour straight. Pets are family and that’s how they deserve to be treated. I’m currently a bartender and big time traveler. I’m looking to make extra cash on weekends by doing what I love which is taking care of your little furry ones. I have fenced in yard for my dogs as well as indoor cats. My pets eat twice a day on a cautious diet due to them being elderly. I walk my dogs everyday if I can and play with my cat every single day as he is old but he’s very playful.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Timberlake is $50

Christy was very attentive to our dogs and gave us daily check-in with pictures and ask for clarification regarding the care of dogs when something wasn’t clear. All of this put our mind at easy knowing our dogs were in great care. I would highly recommend her and use her again.

Updated us daily with pics - was quick to respond - even took care of one our boys when he cut his paw on something in the backyard. When we got home from our travels the boys were super happy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Timberlake on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,044 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Timberlake. 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 Timberlake 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 Timberlake 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 Timberlake 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.

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.
