“Isabella did a great job with our two dogs overnight! We had some changes last minute on our end to arrival and departure times and she was very flexible with our needs. She sent lots of pictures, asked good questions, followed our instructions, and we came back to happy dogs! Thank you!!”
“Valerie did an amazing job with our three doggos. She was very easy to communicate with, sent us daily pics and we came home to a clean house and very happy pups! We would 100% use her services again and recommend anyone who is looking for a very caring individual who will treat your pets like her own!”
“This was the first time that I had Isaac watch my dogs. I had him house/dog sit for me. I originally chose him because of his professionalism in our texting discussions and his promptness with returning messages. We had an initial meet and greet, which he was on time for, and the dogs seemed to like him right away. While I was gone, Isaac sent pictures and updates of how things were going. When I got home, I was amazed at how clean my house was. Typically when I get home from a trip there is dog fur everywhere because my dogs shed very badly. I usually tell my dog sitters where the vacuum is in case the hair starts to bother them, but I do not expect them to vacuum the house for me. However, I never mentioned any of this to Isaac, he just took it upon himself to vacuum the house. The blankets were folded nicely on the dog beds, and on the couch. He even got my mail out of the mailbox and left it sitting for me in the house. These were all extra things that I never asked of him, he just took the initiative to do these things on his own. It was nice coming home to a house I didn’t have to immediately vacuum! I can’t say enough good things about Isaac, I will definitely check with him first when I have to leave town again!”

“Skyler was wonderful! She was here for our Poppy girl every night and kept as close to her routine as possible. We will definitely be reaching out to Skyler again for future stays!”
“We’ve used Eloise before to stay in our home and take care of our two dogs. She follows our instructions and sends updates and pictures of them which was appreciated. Our home was tidy and our dogs were happy when we came home.”
“Erika was awesome! Very sweet w Burt & very attentive & thoughtful! Also very conscientious w household cleanliness. Reliable, responsive & prompt throughout! Will be booking w her again!”
“Vanessa stayed in our home and took care of our Bull Terrier Peanut for 5 days. Vanessa is very professional and her understanding and passion for dog care shown through upon our very first meeting. Our dog is strong and spoiled, and we felt very confident that Vanessa could handle all of Peanut's personality and take care of our house as well. She gave feedback during her stay to make sure everyone got a restful night. She has a lot of dog experience and responsibility, giving me peace of mind that is invaluable! She took time to answer every text and upon our return, Peanut and the house were in perfect order! Definitely will contact Vanessa when our next need arises. THANKS!”
About: I’ve grown up taking care of numerous types of animals, primarily cats and dogs. My neighbors, family and friends rely on me for their pet care needs because I treat them as my own, giving them love and attention in addition to their regular feedings and potty needs. I am available on the weekends! On Friday’s, my availability would start after 5pm. I am available all day on Saturdays. Sunday’s I do take care of horses during the day from 9am-3pm; however, I am available before and after for walks and potty breaks. I make your pet’s needs my main priority. If they should make any messes while you are away, I always do my best to clean it up as thought it never happened, so you can come home to a happy fur baby and find your home just the way you left it.
About: I have been taking care of animals from a young age of 15. I grew up with a German shepherd which started my love for dogs. I use to volunteer at an animal shelter in Iowa when I was going to college. I would walk every single dog because it would break my heart to see them stuck in such a small space. I also rescued around 20 dogs, 50 cats, and one monkey when I was living overseas. I am very empathetic towards animals especially because they are such innocent beings. I also worked with different rescue groups overseas. I currently have 3 dogs I rescued from Peru South America. Their stories are pretty crazy but now they are living the dog dream. So I am very excited to work with animals! I am a stay at home mom looking to help owners with their pets. Having 3 dogs myself I know how necessary it is to have help! 1st I would like to come meet the pet first so we can create a trust. Then I would make sure they were comfortable in their home with plenty of food and water. I would just follow all the rules the owner has for me especially if there dog is on a specific diet. If it is okay with the owner also carry training treats with me for walks.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Through Rover, I’m able to provide dependable, loving care for pets while giving their owners confidence and peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home while maintaining the routines they’re familiar with. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outdoors, relaxing on the couch, or simply getting plenty of attention and scratched behind the ear, I’m happy to accommodate their individual personality and needs. I take my responsibility as a pet sitter very seriously and treat every animal in my care with patience, affection, and respect. I have experience with a wide variety of animals and critters, not just dogs and cats and I believe every dog deserves the same level of care and attention, regardless of breed, or size. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your furry family member! I make my own schedule at work, so am able to put your animal friend first and foremost! I'm here for you, rain or shine! As your sitter, I happily follow any and all instructions to the letter. Written, or verbal rules accommodated equally. I'm happy to have video chats with you when in your place of residence to ensure your animal friends you're always nearby.
“Riley was great with our pups. Very loving, caring, responsible for added pup needs and sent daily updates with photos. I could tell our dogs loved being with her. Highly recommended Riley.”
“Kinery was outstanding. She housesat for us and our puppy and cat, and the entire time we felt 100% confident they were in good hands. It was our first time leaving our pup with anyone, and she treated him like he was her own. She went above and beyond, even buying him special treats and taking him for a play date with her own dog. She gave special attention to our overly anxious cat to make him as comfortable as possible. We will definitely call her anytime we need someone to watch them, and highly recommend her to anyone who needs pet care!”
About: About us: I stumbled onto Rover in August 2022 after trying to think of ways to make a little extra money while working at home, full-time, and with 3 kids (approaching middle and high school) that have wanted a dog since probably before they were born. I grew up with dogs and wanted a dog too! But I also didn’t want the vet visits, food expenses…what do we do with a dog when we want to travel? Fast forward to now and dog-sitting has been a truly epic, awesome experience for all of us. By the time you read this it’s likely we will have reached triple digits of dogs that have stayed here. My kids get to learn about ALL different kinds of dogs which has turned them into lifelong dog lovers. I get the companionship I’m looking for while having a flexible hybrid work schedule. And when you choose us your dog becomes part of our pack, and given the very best care 24/7. I am fully aware that your dog is a member of your family and I truly appreciate your trust in selecting us to care for them. I believe strongly in supporting and giving back to the community, so in addition to fostering dogs we also give a portion of my Rover income back to the local animal shelter. Win-win! What it’s like here: We have a huge fenced-in yard with a horse farm behind us so lots of interesting sights, sounds and smells for your doggie to experience. Many like to hang out on the deck and watch the horses behind our home. Your dog will come home relaxed and happy. Many repeat clients tell me their dogs get excited as soon as they turn onto our street for the next visit because they have happy memories of their last stay. We can hang out with your pooch for doggie day care, overnight, weekend visits, short-term (1-2 weeks), and long-term stays (>2 weeks). We will follow your instructions to a T. Is your dog allowed on your couch? Sure, us too! Does your dog sleep with you? Okay, we can do that! No crate? Sounds great! We want them to enjoy themselves as much as we enjoy having them here. They are truly our guest. It's amazing how quickly the dogs adapt and become part of the family. I’ve cared for dogs that require oral and injected medication, senior dogs, dogs with anxiety, and dogs with diapers. YOUR dog is most welcome. I love figuring out what makes them feel safe and comfortable. Did you know? When searching for a sitter check if the review is flagged "verified stay". Anyone can write a review so only the ones that are flagged this way are legitimate Rover stays!
“Taylor was fantastic!! We were traveling to Illinois and had our young dogs and older girl with us. The two younger ones had never been boarded yet and would not have done well left in our travel trailer for an entire day while we did touristy stuff. I booked Taylor to come to our RV park and stay with the dogs in our travel trailer. It was such a relief to not have to worry about them while we were out or cut our day short to get back to them. She sent pics of them all on walks, or hanging out in the patio and kept me updated how they were doing throughout the day. She was very responsive the entire process from before booking all the way to the end. If you need someone to watch your pets, don’t hesitate to call Taylor!”
“Becca was wonderful! She was able to watch Tazer on short notice over a holiday weekend. She sent updates and photos letting me know how he was doing. I have never had someone new watch him before and she said he adjusted well. It was such a relief knowing I could get away and he was in great hands. I will definitely be using her to sit again.”

About: I've loved and taken care of so many dpgs when I was 5-15 my family would foster all sorts of dogs. I currently own 2 dogs and I would love to take care of your pet as well! Currently I am available all day. Next week I go back into work and ill be cable to take care of pups or cats after 230pm I currently live in an apartment but I can walk great lengths to make sure the pup is as tired as they can be.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for the last 1( years, all over 40lbs. I’m also familiar with dealing with reactive dogs, I was social distancing well before that was a thing 😃. I’ve taken care of my parent’s cat for the last 2 years and I’m comfortable with changing cat litter. I look forward to meeting you and your pups/kittens. I’m currently in school on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, after 5pm. The rest of my schedule is open to provide the service your pet needs. I will always keep safety first, follow all instructions prescribed by the customer, be on-time and provide the service your fur baby needs. In addition, I’m open to any communication that the pet owner requires, phone call, FaceTime or just text message to keep them updated on their pets well-being.

Isabella did a great job with our two dogs overnight! We had some changes last minute on our end to arrival and departure times and she was very flexible with our needs. She sent lots of pictures, asked good questions, followed our instructions, and we came back to happy dogs! Thank you!!
Scott took great care of our animals! We have two rascally dogs, and three cats who keep us busy. Our largest dog weighs 160 pounds and was so traumatized the last time we brought him to a bordering facility he didn’t stop crying for two weeks after we brought him home. After staying in our home with Scott the dogs were happy to see us, but fully themselves and the happy dogs we left. Additionally, the house was clean and neat when we got home. Thank you Scott!
Heather was so great with our senior dog. She stayed at our house and it was so nice to know our dog was cared for while we were gone. Our dog is not easy, she has mobility and potty issues and Heather handled her so well. She was very communicative while we were away, sent us daily updates and pictures.
Alyssa is wonderful and took such good care of our animal family. She is a gem and was a perfect fit for our furry ones! It was a pleasure working with her! She is very kind, caring, responsible and professional. Jakey, our dog, was happy to see us when we returned home, but he was also looking for Alyssa, his new best friend. Look forward to using her in the future!
This was our first experience with Nicole house-sitting with Millie while we were away for a few days. She sent regular updates and pictures and we could tell how comfortable and happy Millie was. This made our vacation much more enjoyable, knowing that Millie was so well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Williamsburg Green 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 Williamsburg Green 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 Williamsburg Green 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
