“Tracie is an angel, truly! My husband and I have never left our fur baby Kona with anyone other than immediate family and were really nervous. From our first communication Tracie went to work setting our minds at ease. She came to the house for a meet and greet on her own time before booking to ensure it would be a good fit all the way around and immediately I could tell it would be. She stayed with Kona for 3 nights - she sent us regular updates on how Kona was doing, she took her for tons of walks and gave Kona plenty of snuggles. Not only that but she couldn’t have been a more respectful house sitter- she brought her own food, cleaned up after herself and even washed the sheets and towels to ensure we wouldn’t have to do anything when we got home. As an anxious dog mom whose pup is her whole world, Tracie was an answer to my prayers!”
“Morgan did a great job with my 2 energetic dogs. She provided daily updates and pictures and even handled a beeping smoke detector while I was away. I returned to a clean home and happy dogs! Thank you Morgan, I will not hesitate to request you again in the future.”
“Chelsey is wonderful! She doted on our dog and cat while we were out of town. Sent lots of cute pics and updates! We would highly recommend Chelsey and can’t wait for her to pet sit again!!”
“Justin was great! He watched our two boys on back to back weekends. He was a great communicator and kept us updated and threw in some cute pictures too! Seemed liked our boys were comfortable with him and as a pet parent that is all we could ask for!”
“Awesome job! My dog was well taken care of. Sarah followed instructions to watch my dog for 1 week. She took initiative when needed and sent me updates about my dog every day. Thank you!”
“Daniela took extra steps to ensure my pets were comfortable and cared for. I frequently feel nervous leaving my pets with someone new, but she was amazing with communication and it eased my mind knowing she was there to care for them. I would use Daniela in the future!!”
“I am happy to give Sally FIVE STARS! She did a wonderful job caring for my older German Shepherd dog. She was kind and very attentive to her needs. She also did a great job looking after my place during my four-day trip, leaving it more clean and tidy than when I left! Thank you Sally. I am happy to provide a solid, positive reference! And, thank you Rover for connecting us.”
“Mehlayne made herself available last minute to take care of our little Lupo. She was punctual, kind, respectful, and communicative while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions etc. etc. It is obvious that Lupo was restless while we were gone (because he’s passed out now) but Mehlayne said she tried very hard to make Lupo comfortable. We would certainly consider hiring her in the future.”
“Did an amazing job, took care of everything and communication was amazing. Chris also made sure to send check in’s which were good and always took them for long walks.”
“Ana-Alicia is currently still caring for my pets as I write this, but I just couldn’t wait to give her a review. She has gone absolutely above and beyond to care for my pets! Her communication has been consistent, clear and professional. My dog is normally anxious around new people, but has seemed much more comfortable with Ana-Alicia than she ever has been with past sitters. My dog is weird and has had an allergy flair up while I’m away, but Ana-Alicia has been extremely considerate of her needs and made sure that she has been cared for and comfortable until I can get back home. I can’t recommend her enough and absolutely hope to use her services again in the future!”
“Athena did an incredible job with an elderly dog that has a few quirks, separation anxiety, and back issues. We would use her again without any hesitation. Her communication was frequent and detailed and we could tell Judy was left in the best of hands.”
“Adalynn was amazing! She communicated with me the whole time she was with the girls and sent photos and videos every day. My girls loved her. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and hope to have found our permanent dog sitter ?”
“Okay folks! Our Winston literally cried when MB & Lindsey left our house to go home. They took loving care of our dog and house for 11 days. We highly recommend their dog and house sitting services.”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with our dog Bailey! From the moment they met, Bailey took to her right away, which immediately put me at ease. Shannon is incredibly kind, reliable, patient, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Knowing our dog was with someone so warm and attentive made all the difference. Communication was easy as Shannon kept me updated regularly while our family was away. I’m so grateful for the care Shannon provided and would gladly trust her with Bailey again!”
About: I’ve been caring for homes and animals for most of my life, and it’s something I genuinely love. I understand how important it is to know your space is safe and your pets are comfortable while you’re away. I have three cats of my own that I absolutely adore, so I’m especially attentive to routines, personalities, and the little things that keep pets happy and stress-free. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or simply keeping your home in order, I treat everything with the same care and respect I would my own. Note: I also worked at an animal shelter, where I picked up valuable knowledge, tips, and hands-on experience that I now bring into every pet I care for. I am not picky about specific instructions (I actually really enjoy getting as many details as possible about your pet and their routine) and I will do whatever you need me to do to take care of your animals, just let me know what care your animals need. I am willing to either spend the night and watch your home or just pop in and check on them throughout the day. Whatever you and your beebees prefer.
“Shannon may be new to Rover but do not miss an opportunity to pick her. She is very sweet on my girl and put me at ease. Thank you so much! Already plan on using her for my overnights and drop ins 💚”
“Alexis was amazing! She kept me updated on my pup, she was respectful of our home and she even left us flowers and did the laundry!!! I would recommend her to everyone!!!! Thank you Alexis, we appreciate you so much!”
“Katherine is such a delight. We appreciate her so much for her love & care of our dogs & our home while we’re gone. She communicates promptly & regularly. This time, our niece (around the same age) needed to stay at our house for one night while Katherine was there. (I double & triple-checked all comfort levels in advance.) Our niece even texted to say how sweet Katherine is. We are so grateful for you, Katherine!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Timberlake is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Timberlake
Mehlayne did a wonderful job of caring for our sweet old Roxy. Our pup is 16 years old, has medical needs such as breathing treatments and medication administration and she even took Roxy to the Vet 4 times for routine fluid administration. While we are away for our 13 day vacation to Alaska, she sent daily pictures of our sweet little girl and messages regarding her day. Considering that Roxy had never been apart from us for more than 3 days, we were very pleased when we returned and she was in excellent health and eating very well, which could be a challenge at times. I could tell from the beginning that they were a good fit, especially since Melanie has a very elderly dog herself. We will be happy to book her again if needed and recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to care for their pup.
Anna did an excellent job taking care of my two large high maintenance, dog-reactive dogs. She tidied up after herself, provided frequent check ins and photos, and asked a lot of questions up front to make sure she was prepared to meet their complicated needs. Absolutely will book Anna again.
Kara took great care of my cats while I was away. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly made an effort to make my cats feel comfortable. I have a cat who can sometimes be a little shy with new people, but Kara was patient and attentive throughout the visit. I appreciated the updates and felt reassured knowing my pets were being looked after. I’d definitely recommend her to others looking for a dependable sitter.
Grace was such a great choice for my dogs. I was concerned because I have dogs who have only been watched by others on a few occasions. One in particular is VERY protective, and she will bark at people in our home (if we are there) for a LONG drawn out time before she somewhat settles. If I was a "sitter", I would probably move on. Grace was here for over 45 minutes on the consultation to make sure "Lily" would adjust to her, and we were all comfortable when she left. She went above and beyond during the stay. I gave her freedom to step away for periods in the morning and afternoon, but she stayed glued in our home. Grace is highly recommended!
Marc was so kind and helpful caring for our pets. Navigated some complications at the start very well. Our cat and Dog loved him! He was also so helpful with some small tasks around the house while we were gone. We will definitely be using him again for our pet and house sitting needs!

FAQs for House Sitting - Timberlake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Timberlake on Rover is $49.95 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 1,056 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Timberlake. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
