“Davida was wonderful with Daizy and Lenni! She was attentive, communicative, and kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to two very calm, happy, and content pups, and it was obvious they had been well loved and cared for while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found someone we feel comfortable trusting with our babies and our home. We would absolutely book with Davida again!”
“Molly was phenomenal with Tucker. She sent such great pictures and updates and seems like she took great care of him. She left the house clean and was responsive and clear in her communication. I’d highly recommend Molly to anyone and looking forward to her caring for Tucker again in the future.”
“Carmen was excellent. So friendly and communicative, I knew my dog and cat were in such great hands. Would definitely recommend Carmen to take good care of your pets!”
About: Hi! I’m Xarissa Alexsondra (legal name Corissa)—please call me Alexsondra. I specialize in cats and also welcome calm, low-energy dogs who only need short potty walks, plus small pets like snakes or fish. I’m available for long-term stays of three weeks or longer only (shorter gigs aren’t a fit). As a person on the autistic spectrum, I feel most at ease with cats and quiet, predictable pets. I’m naturally attuned to body language and individual quirks, and I stay calm and consistent with the routines many cats and introverted dogs prefer. I may seem a bit reserved with new people at first—please be patient. Your pets will get my full, focused attention. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats and have experience with fish, snakes, lizards, hermit crabs, chickens, quail, and ducks. I’m comfortable with cage cleaning, daily feline and canine routines, and the small details that keep animals comfortable. You’ll receive detailed updates and photos so you’ll always know how your pets are doing. I’m reliable, observant, and happiest in the company of cats, calm dogs, and the occasional snake. I’m a homebody with a part-time job that takes me out of the house for 5–8 hours on just one or two days a week. The rest of the week I’m home all day with the cats, or I may step out for a short excursion and then return for the remainder of the day. This rhythm lets me provide calm, consistent care and stick to the quiet routines most cats prefer. I only accept long-term stays of three weeks or longer. I understand the trust it takes to leave your home and pets with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. You’ll receive detailed photo updates so you always know how everyone is doing. I care for cats in the client’s home only (I do not board pets in my own space). One of the strengths of being autistic is that I follow clear, straightforward instructions with high precision and consistency. Tell me exactly how you want feeding, litter, medication, play, and any other routines handled, and I will stick to them closely. I’m naturally attuned to feline body language and stay calm and steady, which many cats prefer. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and focused on keeping your cats comfortable and secure.
“Brandi is great at communicating and understanding my anxious pups needs. George was so happy and relaxed when we came home from a week long trip. I'm so happy he has such a caring new bestie to stay with him when we're out of town.”
“I am so thankful Connie agreed to take care of my 3 kitties for my long vacation. She went above and beyond with their care and was very communicative. I would 100% recommend Connie to others and book again in the future :) Thank you again!!”
“Anthony was absolutely amazing! The house was immaculate when we returned. We booked overnight for 8 days with him and 100% will be booking again. He worked with our flight being rescheduled with out a problem. Doggo was greatly cared for and was very happy. He sent us daily photos which I loved. Highly recommend.”
“Marisa is an excellent dog sitter and house sitter! She took care of my two big dogs and my bird while I was gone for a few days and I came back to my house just as clean as it was before and two dogs looking at the door waiting for Marisa to come back :P I highly recommend her when it comes to keeping good care of your fur babies!”
“Averie, did an amazing job watching my two dogs and my home. I came back to happy pups and a perfectly clean house. Highly recommend her services for anyone looking for someone reliable and detail oriented”
“We couldn’t be happier with Val. She made our dogs and cat dreams come true. She played with them to their hearts content. Our Willie, which is a bit more shy immediately took to her. She also did things that were above and beyond, like watering my wife’s tomato plant. I have no doubt that we will re-booking with Val many many times in the near future. Thank you, Val!!”
“Nicolle was an amazing sitter for our best good girls!! 🐶😸Very communicative, and great at making our pets feel comfortable and happy. We were very lucky to have her while on vacation and would hire Nicolle again!”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful! We had an emergency trip we had to make and were unable to guide Katie through our pup’s routine before leaving. Katie went above and beyond in figuring things out with very little guidance and making sure our pup was taken care of and loved. As a veteran and first responder, I can wholeheartedly recommend her for her reliability, trustworthiness, and professionalism.”
“Annabelle is a perfect find for us! She loved our four-legged babies like her own. We loved that she would send videos and photos each day while we were away! We came home to a clean and picked up home showing she respected our space. She’s also just a sweetheart and she will always be our number one pet sitter!”
About: Responsibility, patience, and affection. It's about ensuring the physical and emotional well-being of animals. My dogs and I are happy to care for them. D The same routine as my dogs, going out for a walk in the morning, arriving home to eat, rest, give them treats, and in the afternoon another outing to the park I take care of them as if they were my own with the same love, care and affection that I have for my dogs. C
About: I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs—whether my own or those belonging to neighbors and friends; I feed them, walk them, and attend to their needs. I currently have a full schedule available, so I will have plenty of time to play with your dogs, take them for walks, and keep them company. I am available for boarding on weekends and during the week starting at 9:00 a.m. The care takes place in my home, which is very safe, warm, and peaceful; there is a park nearby for taking long walks. where you can feel very comfortable and at ease
“Carolina took amazing care of our senior dog, Reggie! She provided multiple updates and made sure Reggie was taken care of when we were out of town for 2 days and 1 night. Would highly reccomend Carolina to anyone and we will be hiring her for any future needs. Thank you, Carolina!!”
“Tori is the absolute best! We have no worries at all when she is taking care of the dogs. She takes them out regularly, plays with them, and treats them like her own. We love her!”
“Katterin was amazing! She’s so reliable and very consistent in her outreach. She did an amazing job taking care of my dog and two cats while I was out of town. I felt very secure that everyone was being well cared for. Her service is above and beyond and I will absolutely be using her again in the future.”
“Makaelah did a great job with our dog Luna. Luna can be apprehensive to new people at first and she went above and beyond to make my dog comfortable. Also she updated me on how things were going which I really appreciated while we were on vacation. We will book her again for our next vacation.”
“Tanzi watched both of our dogs, and our 2 rabbits over the New Year’s holiday. Tanzi had excellent communication, left our home in great condition and even ran a load of laundry for us. We are grateful we found such an awesome pet sitter to look after our little homestead while we are gone.”

Genuinely don’t have enough good things to say. One of the best sitters I’ve had in my entire life. Very communicate, takes great care of the pups, took great care of the house, and coordinated with some local friends to make sure the dogs were taken care of if she had to step out for a bit. 10/10 will use Ally again in the future. You’re in great hands with her!
We cannot recommend Megan enough! A week before our 8-day trip abroad, our dog got sick, making kennel boarding out of the question. Megan stayed at our home the entire 8 days and took incredible care of him. She was wonderful and attentive and gave us complete peace of mind while traveling. We will absolutely hire her again!
Ashley was absolutely wonderful for my sweet babies!! She updated me constantly with so many pictures. I felt at such ease leaving my senior dog in her care. My babies felt so comfortable with her and were very happy when I returned! I could not recommend Ashley more for pet sitting. It was such a good feeling getting to have my babies stay in there home with her! Will definitely be using Ashley again!!
Davida was wonderful with Daizy and Lenni! She was attentive, communicative, and kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to two very calm, happy, and content pups, and it was obvious they had been well loved and cared for while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found someone we feel comfortable trusting with our babies and our home. We would absolutely book with Davida again!
Victoria took care of Lily while we were away in Toronto and did an amazing job. She kept up with Lily's routine closely, and sent us regular updates and photos so we always knew Lily was safe and happy. This is the third time she's cared for Lily and she keeps proving why she's our go to sitter. Highly recommend.
Katie was great! We booked her for a 2-week trip when our usual sitter was unavailable and she was amazing. Our dog is very shy/anxious and she was immediately comfortable around Katie. Our cat requires daily eye drops and medication and Katie administered them both with no issues. She also left our home in great condition and left me a ton of notes about everything she had done. We were so grateful to come home to a clean home and happy pets. Would absolutely book her again!
Woody was such a great sitter for our two old men pugs and all of their senior needs, including medications and needing help to get up for potty! They were so well cared for, and our home was as well. I highly recommend Woody for pet sitting, and will absolutely book again.
Our dog was very well taken care of, and we received regular updates on her status, along with pictures. This was our first time using Rover, and Anne completely put our minds at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. We will definitely be using Anne again soon. We highly recommend her!
Adilene was wonderful with Casper! He was a little under the weather when I left, so I was naturally worried, but she sent me lots of pictures and updates, and I came home to such a happy dog. She also truly went above and beyond when I needed some extra help with Casper, including helping with a few things related to his vet care. She never hesitated and was so kind and helpful throughout. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him!

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 Wells Branch 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 Wells Branch 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 Wells Branch 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.
