“Colleen did an excellent job taking care of our 3 Beagle fur babies! Each pup has a unique personality and she gave them each the attention they needed. They all ate while we were gone which was shocking, usually they don’t. She shared lots of pics and kept us informed on their care! Highly recommend her!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with our two dogs while we were away. She was prompted with the request, meet and greet and booking. She provided several updates and photos while we were gone. We will most defiantly utilize her services again.”

“Scott was an excellent sitter, he communicated with me the entire weekend, took our dogs for daily walks, fed them on schedule and gave them plenty snuggles. I received pictures everyday and left my home clean just like when I left. I would definitely use his services again and recommend him to others. Scott made us feel comfortable leaving our fur babies for the weekend :)”

“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!”
“Bella did an absolutely amazing job caring for my two little ones!! I was so nervous as multiple other sitters had cancelled last minute and we were getting very close to the trip - she was so fast and courteous in her messaging and came out to do a meet and greet the next evening. She stayed in my home and kept me fully looped in on how things were going with multiple pictures throughout the trip. My two smaller dogs can be picky with people but they both adored her from the jump and they got so much love while I was gone. My littles have never been so happy while I’ve been gone, and my house was cleaned up when I returned! I will absolutely be booking Bella in the future, her care for dogs in unmatched!”
About: I’ve taken care of every type of dog since i was 10 years old. I’ve fostered and helped over 50 cats and dogs get adopted. I treat every animal with love and care as they are family. I have 2 classes a week but otherwise i am completely dedicated to taking care of my cats as well as others who need it :) I have a fenced in dog park at my apartment. I also offer dog/cat meet ups before i walk/sit your fur baby so you can get to know me and see me in person first.
“I have such peace of mind when our pups are in Maria's care! They are excited to see her when she comes so I don't have the guilt of leaving them (as much). She walked our energetic boy twice a day, for much longer than we walk him--I'm sure he was in heaven. She played toys with our other dog as much as he wanted. She often even brings them something special, which is so nice for the boys! (But definitely not needed or expected) Maria shares lots of updates and I can tell the dogs are having a great time being spoiled by Maria. She's very aware of their behaviors and needs and meets them in every way possible. I feel like she loves our dogs as if their own when she’s with them!”
About: Hello my name is Liliana I been doing this for a long time for my family or friends. Anyone in my family that needs their dogs to be taken care of while they go and enjoy their vacation or even when they are at work. I worked with big dogs and small dogs. Like Boxers, Yorkees, Border Collie, Labrador Retriever etc... I will make sure your dog is fed at the time you prefer and make sure it the amount you instruct. I will make sure to follow all the instructions you tell me. I know every pet owner has their own rules and Raises them the way they want too so I will make sure I respect them and follow them. I will play with your pets and make sure they feel comfortable. If your pet doesn’t like certain things please let me know.
“Xanthe was the absolute sweetest and best to our pup scout! Even with last minute scheduling changes on our part she came over and comforted our pup during the holiday fireworks! Our family and her new friend scout recommends her for your own pup! <3”
About: I’ve had animals in the house since I was 9 years old such as cats, dogs, turtles, fish, and more! I truly love animals and would love to get to know yours🙂. I will treat your animals as my own and ensure you’re updated during the service you book.♥️ I’m currently working full time earlier in the day, my hours are 7am-3:30. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your animals! I’m available for boarding on weekends and Monday’s, and after 4pm Tuesday-Friday.🙂 Although I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard, I do take that as an advantage to get out and have some nice long walks with your pet, that way we both can get a workout in🙂.
“Elizabeth did fantastic! She kept us updated daily with pictures and info on all 5 of our pets and she kept our house tidy in the mean time. I was a bit nervous because I'd never used Rover before but will definitely reach out to Elizabeth next time we go out of town!”

About: I’ve cared for everything from tiny puppies to large Goldendoodles, as well as cats, and I have experience caring for multiple pets at the same time. Every dog I meet ends up not wanting to go home! I treat your pet like family:) I recently graduated and am currently job hunting, which means I’m fully available to care for your pet full time!

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 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.

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.
