“Hannah aka Mikki house sat for us and watched our mini dachshund. We did a meet and greet a few days prior to our trip (which we booked with her on short notice) and she was so great with Banjo, even totally unphased by his typical dachshund barking. She seems to truly love her job and love animals. She checked in while we were out of town and sent pictures. This was hands down the best experience we’ve ever had with a Rover sitter and we will absolutely be booking her again.”
About: I have many years of caring for pets and ran my own kennel in Florida for about 13 years and was a Vet technician for 8years I’m available weekends and can also be on call if needed. I can also be available on some Wednesday’s and holidays I’m open to any times I will care for your pet as if they are my own fur baby and will provide what is needed to take the best care of your pet
About: My parents still love telling the story of when they told me I was going to have a baby brother. I looked them straight in the face and said, “I don’t want a human, I want a puppy!” Safe to say not long after, I got my very first dog, Bella, when I was four years old. From that moment on, Bella was my best friend. We grew up together, and wherever I went, she was right beside me. She taught me what unconditional love, patience, and responsibility look like. After an incredible 15 years together, I had to say goodbye to my sweet girl, but the love she gave me is the reason I care so deeply about every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic puppy, sticking to a senior dog’s routine, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were part of my own family. Although I work full-time, pet care fits naturally into my routine. I make time before and after work for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. On my days off, I have even more flexibility for longer visits, exercise, and quality time. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I always make it a priority to stick to their normal routine and provide reliable, loving care while their owners are away. I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I do my best to keep things as consistent as possible. Before caring for your pet, I’ll make sure I understand their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, medications (if any), favorite toys, and any quirks or preferences they have. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and attention while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’ll receive lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize their safety, monitor them closely, and make sure they feel relaxed and at home. My goal is for every pet to feel loved, secure, and well cared for until they’re back with their family.
“Cassy is absolutely wonderful. We adore her and so do the pups. We couldn't ask for anyone better to take care of our pups while we're away. We highly recommend her!”
About: I currently have two dogs of my own. I've had pets my entire life. I had dogs and cats growing up but I'm allergic to cats so I don't have any now. I had guinea pigs at one point as well.

About: I have taken care of all different kinds of dog breeds, from small pugs to big boxers! I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years off and on for friends, neighbors and family when needed! I’m currently working part time, with flexible hours. The longest I would be away from them, if I had work, would be around 6-7 hours. I don’t work everyday, so when I am not at work, I am with the animals! I will walk your animals around the block, let them outside if there is a fence to run around in and play with them! Your animals safety is my number 1 priority!
“Robin did a fantastic job taking care of my fur kids. I came home to a very content atmosphere. I needed to be able to count on someone staying with them until I got home. I had a very late flight home and she took care of them until I landed. Will definitely use again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 317 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wartrace. 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 Wartrace 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 Wartrace 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 Wartrace 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 Wartrace. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
