“Colleen did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs, Daisy and Duke. She was able to walk them several times a day since we do not have a yard to let them out in. And she stayed the night with them which helped Daisy who is our anxious and sensitive dogs. They were both seemed to love her and apparently she got some good snuggles! We will book with her again.”
“Julian was the best! Super communicative and send doggie updates daily. He followed the instructions I left behind to a T. He was also on time and punctual. I would absolutely recommend him and will be booking with him again!”
“Cathleen was great. She watched Otis for 6.5 hours in our home while we went to an event. Felt comfortable with having Cathleen in our home and very comfortable with her watching Otis. We will book Cathleen for our next event!”
About: I have always taken care of my dog when my family goes on vacays and also have dog sat for my neighbors and my cousin! I currently work part time so i’ll be available before/after work and on weekends as well. my shifts are typically only 4 hours so they won’t be alone for long! I always make sure they have lots of play time and make sure they are well taken care of. I love all pets like they are my own!
“This was our first time boarding our three dogs and we were so grateful for Aaron and his families care during their stay. We got photo video updates throughout the weekend and never had to wonder about how they were doing. We would definitely recommend their care!”
“Jessica was awesome with my babies. From playing ball with them, to walking and cuddling them she was really what they needed that day. Great with communication updates and pics. Highly recommend.”
“Caitlyn went above and beyond with our pets. We were able to rest assured that they were in good hands. She was also willing to help us last minute and we couldn't have asked for more.”
“Hailey is a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter, a caring and thoughtful caregiver and house sitter! We highly recommend her and will definitely be hiring her again. She watched our two big dogs for us and did an amazing job!”
About: I have been officially pet sitting for about 3 years but I have had many animals since I was a little girl. I am a veterinary technician and have been for 4.5 years so I am no stranger to administering medications and even giving insulin to pets. I currently have 3 cats and a dog. I work full time (off Tuesdays and I work one Saturday a month) so if your pets are not comfortable being home alone for 4-5 hours then I am not the right fit for you. If your pet loves to cuddle I am all for it! I have no problem with being covered in fur. If you have a specific regiment for your fur babies I will be glad to follow all instructions and specifics; I very much appreciate lists and written instructions. I love taking fur babies for pup cups especially! (If allowed of course)
About: I’ve always grown up in a home where pets were part of the family. Dogs, especially, have been a constant in my life, and I truly believe they’re some of the most loyal and loving companions we could ask for. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs, dog-sat for friends and family, and had the unique experience of caring for working dog teams while living in Alaska. These experiences have taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs—and I love getting to know them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience caring for senior dogs and administering oral medications, and I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. My goal is simple: to care for your pets with the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind while they’re with me. 🐶❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care. I currently work from home, so I'm available whenever your dog needs or wants to go outside! I don't currently have any dog toys for your pup to play with, but if you would like to bring their own, I would love to play with them! Feel free to bring whatever you think your dog might need throughout their stay.
“Wow- Wendy is so kind and thorough that we were blown away. She kept us totally updated on our dogs, loved on them so much, and left the house absolutely perfect. By far the best sitter we have found through Rover. Cannot thank her enough!”
“I would, with out a doubt, recommend Katy as your next pet sitter/house sitter. She is very sweet, prompt, detail oriented and most importantly takes excellent care of your kiddos (animals). Thank you very much Katy... until next time!”
“Megan was amazing with my pets and my home! She easily followed instructions for my three and their different eating habits, their potty and play schedule, and she even got them new toys! I’m so happy I found someone in the area reasonably priced, great with my pets, who treats them as well as I do. I will always call Megan first when I need a sitter!”
About: We have always had pets when I was going up so I’ve always been around animals and have cared for them. I now have 3 kitties and a dog of my own.

I am available everyday during the evening time , some mornings , and most weekdays to come check up on or walk your fur babies I’ll take care of your babies as if they were my own. I’m patient and very affectionate with animals and I will happily work on training.
About: I fortunately have 6+ years experience working in the veterinary field and I’ve also been pet sitting for 10 years, for close friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues of mine. I can take care of special needs pets, giving oral or injectable medications and changing diapers or applying creams. I got you covered! I’m currently part-time at my job so I have ample time for play dates, walks, sleep overs, whatever your pet care needs may be! I have a large fenced in yard, treats for both dogs and cats, toys for both dogs and cats, and a medium size crate if needed I can provide for those of our furry friends who are crate trained.
About: I have worked with varies breeds, all ages, and have been relied on for many years. I love every single animals just the same! :) I recently just moved, so i’m at home 24/7 and can provide your fur baby with the top care there is. Never have to worry! Many potty breaks/playtime. Lots of daily walks. Morning, afternoon, or evening feedings. Bonding times. Whatever is in the fur babies needs while in the care of me.
About: I grew up around dogs and have been helping care for them since I was about 10. Friends and family often ask me to walk, feed, and spend time with their pets, and I also have a rescue dog of my own who loves walks and playtime. Taking care of her has taught me how much patience, attention, and love pets really need. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I’m not working right now, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and in-home sitting. I care for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved
About: I had a large sized dog for most of my life and grew up with her from the age of a puppy until she passed away my freshman year of high school to old age. She was a pit/lab mix and I loved running with her, cuddling when she was tired, and even allowing her to "play" with me while I do yoga. I have so much love for animals, as I believe they are true reciprocates of unconditional love. I would love to spend time with your animals while you need them cared for. I am an opera singer and voice teacher. Finally, I guess a special skill would be I love relaxation techniques such as yoga, music, sound healing etc, and animals are so attuned to these activities that I could even provide a healing experience for your pet :) Currently available any time. I work from home and have flexibility in my job so very available to tend to pets! I have cared for many more pets than I have reviews you can see some of the doggos in my photos :) I am extremely compassionate and really like to provide that space for an animal to feel safe and welcome in my company. I like to build a relationship with animals and eventually find a language of communication where we seem to “get” each other.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,173 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wilson. 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 Wilson 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 Wilson 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 Wilson 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.
