“We are happy to provide a magnificent recommendation for Alexis who recently provided in-home pet and house sitting services for me over an eight-day period. Throughout the engagement, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. My dog was exceptionally well cared for receiving consistent exercise, proper feeding, and attentive companionship. It was evident upon my return that my pet was comfortable, healthy, and had been treated with genuine care. In addition, she maintained my home in excellent condition. The property was clean, orderly, and well-managed, reflecting a clear respect for my space and expectations. Communication was consistent and reassuring, with regular updates that provided confidence and peace of mind during my time away. Based on this experience, I would not hesitate to engage Alexis again for future services and offer my full recommendation to others seeking a dependable and trustworthy pet and house sitter.”
“Adrianne was wonderful! Our three Chihuahuas loved her! Took interest in the instructions we left. She went above and beyond, watering our plants, putting the garbage out for pickup and keeping the house in good order. Would definitely have her dog/housesit again.”
About: I was a kennel technician for a little over 3 years and have fostered pets most of my life, I miss working with animals but had a career to focus on I work 9-5 on Tybee currently but make sure my own pet gets very consistent long walks before and after work every day and playtime at lunch on my days off❤️❤️ My dog has fantastic recall that we work on regularly with positive reinforcement. I also specialize in leash training stubborn puppies that like to pull
“Arden was great taking care of our dogs and cat. She stayed in the nighttime to ensure that our dogs were ok and not in need of emergency potty situations that can sometimes occur. She walked the dogs, sent pics and they were all happy and fine when we got home. House was great and everything went smoothly! Using her again the end of the month!”
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I started pet sitting at ten years old and absolutely fell in love with providing quality care to other's fur-babies! I have extensive experience in petsitting cats and dogs of all sizes and ages from puppies/kittens to seniors. I have experience with administering medications, as well as experience with dogs with disabilities who just need a little extra TLC! I adore caring for these babies whether it be through walking, playing, or just getting in some snuggles! I am currently a college student with class only on Mondays and Wednesdays, so I have plenty of time during the week and weekend to provide care! I like to start my mornings early, but I can also be a night owl, so I am very flexible with time and am happy to help when I am needed. Although I am in college and cannot provide care in my home, I am more than happy to come over and care for the pets in a clients home! I am fully aware of the fact a new visitor can be nerve wracking or stressful for some pets, so I always take it slow and make sure that your baby is 100% comfortable. All pets are different and some take more time to warm up than others, so I am very patient and perfectly happy to meet your pet where they are. :)

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 Windsor Forest 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 Windsor Forest 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 Windsor Forest 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.
