“Thank full for Susan, who from the beginning has been a joy to communicate with, always responding warmly, promp, direct, and concise. Susan prioritized a meet n greet, at a time that worked for us, in our home. Susan's engagement with the dogs, follow up questions about their care routine, and how to appropriately care for my 18 year old senior dog, made me feel excited and confident in hiring her to care for our pups while not in town. Her first 4 day weekend with the dogs, we weren't able to go out of town due to vehicle issues, and still Susan stopped by mid day to visit with the dogs while we were taking care of the vehicle, which was such a help. I appreciate the photos she took of the pups, and all the love and care she pours in. Makes a loving dog owner's heart and mind be at ease, which is saying alot. Thank you Susan 🙏 The pups look forward to seeing you again soon.”
“Karla took amazing care of our dogs once again. She’s punctual, communicative, and kind. Karla respects our space and loves our dogs. She sends awesome photos and goes above and beyond, even bringing in packages. 10/10 wonderful sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of lots of different dogs, cats, and even a Guinea pig so I’m great with pretty much any animals. I don’t just do the bare minimum either I always make sure to keep them happy and occupied as well. This is currently my only job so I have all the time to spend taking care of your sweet fur babies, on weekdays and weekends. I’m capable of filling in with any extra things like administering medication if needed and anything else you need me to do for you.
About: Experience with different breeds & sizes . Dog mom of 2 , intermediate puppy training skills. Also have experience with caring for senior dogs . It will fit great with my routine as I work M/W at a local cattle farm! I am available to take your fur babies to vet trips / groomers, as well as walks or just drop in visits :) House stays are available with further information. I have lots of toys & treats for your four legged friends to enjoy (with your consent) When in your home, we will walk or play in the yard or surrounding available area.
About: I have had dogs and cats for most of my life. I are especially fond of labs and have had several. When the last one passed away around 5 years ago, I have just not been able to replace her. Since I am retired, pet sitting would be perfect( just like the grandchildren… spoil them and give them back!). I have a fenced in back yard and a basement with a doggy door where he/ she can go in and out. I can assure you that your fur baby would be loved and well taken care of. I am retired, so available to give your pets the love and attention you would want them to have. My schedule is flexible including weekends and holidays I have a fenced in yard and a basement/ man cave with a doggy door where your pet could come and go. If you are crate training, that will be okay as well. I also have no pets or small children in my home, as this can be a concern to some.
“Arianna was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly communicative from start to finish, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was amazing with our dog and even brought him treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. She sent us lots of pictures and updates, and it was obvious he was happy and well cared for. On top of that, she even did a little light housekeeping, which was completely unexpected and absolutely not necessary, but so appreciated. It was such a kind gesture. We came home to a happy pup and a tidy house, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book Arianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
About: I’ve been everyone’s, like EveRyOnEs go-to person to call to come let their dog out or to feed/water & play with their cats. I babysat a child for a couple summers and one year the mom had me train/raise their new puppy as well. I’m 26, and I’ve been house sitting for my restaurant regulars, my sister-in-law’s neighbor, and my best friend AND her other friends since I was 14. I now work at a Dental office and I have patients requesting my assistance in caring for their animals (and plants) while they’re away from home. I work best with any pets (except spiders please), preferably with detailed instructions on the ins and outs of how to adequately, and comfortably conform to your pets needs. I adjust my schedule as needed, waking up in time enough to go before my day job and leaving on time to be there as soon as possible. Just let me know how I can help make your life easier! I’m currently full time at Kersey Dental, but I accommodate accordingly to your pets needs and schedule! Doesn’t matter the time of day, I always have the energy to play and care for all the fur babies! I have an a huge fenced in backyard for my dog, Bear to roam freely and give him a fresh bowl of water every time he heads out the door. I walk pups on leashes as needed and always confirm your desired route to take
“Always grateful when she watches my dogs. She is great at communicating and when I come home I know there aren’t going to be any unexpected surprises. My dogs are always very happy when we have this sitter. Cannot thank her enough.”
About: I have 3 cats at home with my wife. We spoil them with everything they need to live a fun and adventurous feline life and we wanna do the same for yours. While I don't have any kind of professional background with pet care, I can make up for it with a lifelong history of loving and caring for my own. Pets are more than just animals but a part of a family. I can guarantee your pet will feel the same warmth and love I've given to mine. Even at odd hours I will be available. I'm currently part time so I have plenty of time to check in or watch your dog in the the day. I'm also available at night. I have a big backyard so I spend a lot of time with pets there. There is plenty of room to run around and play.
“Wilma was wonderful! She was flexible and very attentive to Chances needs. Wilma provided great care, attention and fun for Chance. So very happy to have had the opportunity to board with her. Thank you Wilma!”
About: Hey guys! I’m an Army Veteran with 20 years of dog care experience. I have two dogs myself and trained my Cane Corso puppy to be a Service Dog. I understand that our dogs are our family. I am very friendly and accommodating and I will do anything I can to take good care of your pets. I look forward to speaking with you about how I can provide excellent service to you and your pets! I am currently in school and have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can accommodate any schedule and facilitate whatever you or your pet needs. I am very dependable and trustworthy. Whether I have your pets in my home or yours, you will receive adequate communication and pictures so you can rest easy knowing that your pet is in good hands.

“We had a great experience with Brittney. She stayed at our home with our three pets and took excellent care of all of them. One dog is very shy and timid, and one dog has just had surgery. Brittney handled all the medications and kept me updated on all pets. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring person to look after their pets.”
About: For many years I've been the go-to choice for friends and family who needed a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter. Considering my life long love of animals big and small, Rover allows me to help pet owners find someone dependable to help care for their fuzzy friends. Whether caring for big playful dogs, proud wary cats, or even sensitive older pets my top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent. I work remotely which allows me to have plenty of freedom to care for pets during most people's work hours. The only weekdays that I'm typically unavailable are Fridays during the Fall season. I keep detailed notes for each client's preferences and instructions so that everything goes as smoothly as possible. My top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent so whatever rules and routines you already have in place for your pets will be maintained while I care for them.
About: Growing up we always had a ton of animals inside and outside the house. My family has always used me as the resident pet sitter because they know I love all the fur babies. I have taken care of cats and dogs for basically my entire life. I have been taking care of other peoples pets for the past three years. I also previously worked at a boarding/daycare facility. I strive to treat your pets as my own. I have experience in dealing with sick animals and recognizing when symptoms have worsened. I am here to provide your animal with a safe and loving environment. I want you to be able to feel comfortable leaving your babies with me! I am a full time student with a bit of a weird schedule! Most weekends are free! Your dogs will have to be left alone during the week but never for more than 5-6 hours! I will always be cautious when meeting a new animal as to not frighten them. I will feed them the appropriate amount and correct food. I will give them any medication they may need. I will be gentle with any senior pet.

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 Whitfield 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 Whitfield 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 Whitfield 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.
