“This was our first time using Rover and it feels like we hit the jackpot with Juliette. She was absolutely amazing house sitting with our two dogs. Sent us pictures, updates and responded in a timely manner with our questions. We came back to a clean house, happy puppies and she even drew us a picture of our pups. We definitely recommend! We are going to recommend her to all our friends but honestly we would like yo keep her our secret. Thank you so much Juliette!”
“Kay was wonderful! She is very friendly and shows concern and compassion for my dogs. She sent lots of great pictures and made sure everything was clean before she left . I would definitely use her again!!!”
“Angelique was absolutely amazing! We booked her to watch our 10 mo. old French Bulldog while we were in Bethlehem, PA for my sister's wedding, and I didn't have to worry at all about whether he was being taken care of, and this enabled me to enjoy the wedding festivities! We were thrilled with Angelique.”
“Crystal is great with my very senior dog. She is trustworthy and dependable and puts my mind at ease when I am away. I would absolutely recommend Crystal for overnight care in the home.”

“Rebecca is the best! She knew we were worried about leaving our dog and sent pictures the entire time we were away. She genuinely cares about the pets she watches over. Duke was calm, happy and well cared for, even with a thunderstorm and a power outage. Would definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

About: Had my first pet at a young age and I have always shown them love and attention. Love how much they just want to be Love and be Loved. Work part time and have lots of time to Pet Sit. Very flexible with my schedule and this is something that will be perfect for me to do as I love and do well with our Fur Family. I've got a yard with fence around it and for my cats they have a cat litter box on each for so they have easy access to it. I'm very attentive to making sure their cat litter gets scooped up daily to keep them happy, healthy and comfortable.
About: I've been dog sitting since I was 12 years old and have been around dogs my entire life. While I've never owned my own dog, I initially watched my cousin's dogs when they were out of town, but eventually started watching dogs for family friends and within the last 10 years watched my friend's dogs when they've been out of town. Most dogs I would take on walks or let them out to run around in the yard if it's fenced in (if the area isn't great for walking). I will always take care of your dog like it's my own. I work full time Monday thru Friday 8am-5pm so would be available after 5pm or on the weekends if I'm not travelling. I'm originally from Pittsburgh PA and still go back home on some weekends or will visit NYC for a day to visit friends or family. In my clients home I would either take their dogs on a walk around the block (if the area is decent enough) or can let the dogs out in the yard if it's fenced in. I'm very careful when walking dogs and always remember to pick up after them.
About: I grew up in the countryside so i have always been around many animals since my childhood years. I've taken care of dogs and cats of many breeds , I grew up in DR so I had a dog whom gave birth 3 times within the same year and I delivered 9 pups each time. I took care and nurtured all of the pups prior to finding them a new home. I also always took care of two dogs my godfathers sisters had whenever she would travel to Florida they would stay with me. I do it because I love animals and rather make sure their in good care than looked at by someone who’s careless. I work at the wind creek , my free days are Sunday through Tuesday and I am available any time. Wednesday through Thursday from 7-5pm are my working hours. However on these days Between 6pm-10pm I can be available. If needed I can also stay the night , Feeding will be done at 5:45am with a quick potty break prior to me leaving at 6:30am. Furry friends can run free at home and outside , i like taking them on walks and playing with them where with my CoCo i give her treats as she does the things I ask of her like Sit , Stay Still , my dog loves these games. This is a safe space we also have a camera outside monitoring everything. At a clients home I always follow their instructions, usually most clients would leave a small instruction pamphlet for me which I always follow.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for family, friends, and Rover for years and am excited by every opportunity I get to spend with them! I've been a dog owner myself for over 5 years. I can easily adjust my sitting style for dogs with a lot of energy or ones that are a little more relaxed. I am happy to sit in and give belly rubs or take them out on a long walk with me! My home has a fenced in backyard and there are plenty of places to walk near me. I typically work full time during the week at a non-profit theatre, I'm always happy to meet in person before we make final arrangements. I love taking care of dogs and I'd be happy to spend some time with the dog in your life!

I also know how unpredictable work and travel can be, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their comfort and routine. As a dog-mama and homeowner myself, I treat every pet and home as if they were my own. Things will be kept things tidy and secure, and every pup will receive the same love and attention I give my own dog. Whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing inside, I focus on safety, calm energy, and clear communication so that you always know how your dog is doing.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wilson
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Juliette! She stayed in our home for 8 days to care for our senior dog, and she was wonderful. She communicated regularly and sent great photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. I felt completely confident that our older dog was loved and well cared for the entire time. When we returned home, the house was neat, tidy, and well kept. We would gladly rebook with Juliette and highly recommend her.
Heidy took very good care of my two dogs when I was gone for a week. She was trusted to take care of them in my home and did an exceptional job. She fed them gave them medication, walked them and even picked up the poop in the yard. She provided updates and photos. I would highly recommend.
Gia just stayed with our three dogs for the first time and she did a phenomenal job! She was super conscientious about following their schedule and was a great communicator. Most importantly, the dogs were healthy and happy! We will definitely book with her again.
We had a wonderful experience! She was reliable, communicative, and took amazing care of Milton for an entire week. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands, and Milton clearly had a great time with her. We would absolutely recommend her!
Karen is truly the only person who I will not only allow in my house when I'm not around but also watch my motley Crue of 3 senior, a 6 yr old and 1 yr old cats. Always a ton of communication, pics that really show they love and trust her and just above and beyond care of them. They just adore her and I can actually relax knowing they are well taken of as if I was doing it myself. That says volumes about someone coming from me because I'm in the Animal field for 22 years and I expect the care from a sitter as I give my patients!
As a first-time Rover user, I was incredibly nervous about leaving our cats, Stella and Winston, while we were away in Maine. Stella is 16 years old and was recently diagnosed with kidney disease and asthma, so making sure she received her medications—especially her inhaler—was my biggest concern. While she’s great about taking it from me, I worried that asking friends or family to handle it would be stressful for everyone. From the moment we met Deb, I knew our cats were in great hands. She was patient, compassionate, and determined to earn Stella’s trust, even when she was feeling shy and a little spicy. Deb stayed in constant communication with us every day, sending updates and making sure Stella received all of her medications. That peace of mind was absolutely priceless. Winston clearly adored her too! She spent time playing with him, and the daily photos and updates made me feel so much less guilty about being away. As an incredibly thoughtful surprise, Deb even printed a few of the photos for us to keep. 🥰 If you’re new to Rover or simply looking for someone who will truly care for your pets as if they were her own, don’t hesitate to book Deb. She went above and beyond in every way, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Stella and Winston again. Your fur babies will be in the best hands!
We have two high energy dogs, one of which has a hard time with strangers and has a lot of nervous energy- and Rachael was wonderful with both. Felt great about the way the stay went and felt happy and relieved to know she was handling things! Will definitely use her again!
I cannot speak highly enough of Hailee. This was her first time dog sitting for us, and every single thing that could have gone wrong in our house did. Our water heater broke right before she arrived and started flooding the finished basement, the plumber that fixed the water heater accidentally left the gas off so there was no heat for 24 hours, and there was a fire down the street that caused them to turn off the power to our grid. And yet, Hailee made it all a breeze. Between coordinating with our plumber, keeping the dogs calm with the commotion in the house, and keeping us in the loop. We came home to a clean house and happy & tired dogs. You would have never known that it was a crazy week. Highly recommend if you want peace of mind & will be rebooking!

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.
<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 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!

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.
