“My Loki Bear caught a cold right before I was headed out of town. I was fortunate enough to find the Grossman’s to come and house sit with Loki. They were so nice and thoughtful and loved looking after Loki. And Loki enjoyed their company. They gave him his medicine on time and on schedule. He is feeling much better now that he got to stay home and rest up. I am definitely going to be using them to watch Loki again and again.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals all my life, and they are truly my passion. Every animal deserves to be treated properly with compassion, and I want to give my best to them when in need. I hope to give your animals care when required, and ensure they are as happy as possible. My schedule is very flexible and open right now, as I am in online college courses. I am available throughout the week and weekends if needed. My schedule is always open for any fur babies that need care! I have a cat friendly environment with plenty of room and toys, and I have proper space for dogs. If needed I do have a medium sized crate, and a fully fenced in yard. Whatever I can do to make sure you and your animals are comfortable, I am here for any concerns or needs.

“We are very pleased with Britta and how she cared for our pets this past two weeks. She sent pictures and comments every day, she took Boone to the vet when he was limping and followed up with the vet and with us. She took our dogs to the dog park and played ball with them regularly. She gave a lot of attention to our spoiled and needy cats. Britta is a very responsible and capable sitter, friendly, happy, and we looked forward to hearing from here every day. We highly recommend her services and will definitely use her services again. We feel as though we have made a new and good friend in Britta”

“We were out of town for the weekend, and Miss Ashlyn took wonderful care of Fallon. She followed all of Fallon’s feeding and medication instructions, took her on walks, and kept us updated with messages and photos. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Fallon was in such caring and reliable hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup! We highly recommend Miss Ashlyn and would gladly trust her with Fallon again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Whitesville
Absolutely blown away with the care and compassion Sara showed our dogs while we were on vacation! We did not want to board our dogs and we were looking for someone who would be willing to stay at our home with our dogs and Sara was willing to do this. Sara was SO kind, warm, and welcoming to us and to our dogs. We had multiple meet 'n greets prior to the week long stay and Sara was attentive to our needs, our dogs needs, and a few things we needed managed in the house (like turning on the pool pump each day and putting trash cans out on trash day). She gave daily updates, including pictures, and it was very clear that she took her job of taking care of our dogs and our home very seriously. When we returned home, the house was spotless and the dogs were happy and healthy. We couldn't have asked for a better homecoming. We are SO grateful to have found Sara through Rover. She is trustworthy and reliable. We will definitely be booking with Sara again and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking to make sure your dogs are well taken care of.
Isis, as per usual, was fantastic while we were away! We got daily updates on both of our pets, and tons of pictures & videos. Both of our pets absolutely love her! She even helped us with bringing in a few unexpected packages we had arive while we were away. Isis is our go-to whenever we go away, and we truly appreciate her so much!
Dyana was wonderful! She took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. One of our dogs was sick so she administered medication when needed and kept a close eye on her for me. She was also great at communicating with us each day. I felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with her. I will definitely hire her again.
Allison exceeded all expectations! This was my first time using Rover and I could not have asked for a more trustworthy and kind person to watch my animals and home while we were away. 5 stars simply isn’t enough! She checks in regularly, sends videos and pictures and looks out for everything I typically would look out for. She is worth every penny!!! ❤️ Thank you Allison!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Whitesville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Whitesville on Rover is $34.82 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,615 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Whitesville. 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 Whitesville 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 Whitesville 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 Whitesville 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 Whitesville. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
