Lori house sat our adult rottweiler and mini dachshund for over a week. Lori was excellent with communicating and providing updates throughout her stay with our dogs. She was very calm and patient with one of our snippy and high maintenance pups. We will be asking her to return for our future dog sitting needs. I would highly recommend Lori's services. Thanks again, Lori!

Great experience! My babies are elderly and fairly needy. Everything was taken care of with no issues. Look forward to next time without worrying about my babies.

Mya was a wonderful sitter while we were out of town. She communicated with periodic check ins complete with pictures of our fur babies. She followed all of our instructions to the letter and even left us a thoughtful keepsake. Will definitely book her again.

Jackie was great with our cat and our home while we were away. She was able to recognize signs of stress and adjust the care she provided to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable (he is typically on the skittish/nervous side as it is, so we wanted to make sure he was in good hands while out of town). She also sent us photos and updates while we were away. She was very kind and respectful. We will definitely use her again in the future!

I really wanted to keep Brianna, but she communicates well when securing the job but her communication is hit or miss when sitting. Also, the last visit she was late and I asked for her to modify the visit to a drop in since she came late even after me asking for a cancelation. I still have not gotten half of my money back even after contacting Rover, which Brianna has nothing to do with. She was great with my pet and I appreciate that, but as a traveling fur mommy, communication is non negotiable and I still want my refund from Rover.

About: I have been around animal care since I was born. I have six dogs of my own, ranging from a Husky all the way down to a Maltese. I have a real passion for animals and love to take care of them. I often help out with neighbors and friends to pet sit while out of town or for a quick potty break if needed. I’m currently starting my Master’s program in August with university of west Georgia. Outside of my classes, I have free time that does not always allow for a full time job, but just enough for pet sitting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and daily routines to help your pet feel secure while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep doors and gates securely closed, use leashes on all walks unless you’ve instructed otherwise in a secure area, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind.

About: I used to be a dog mom to a mini poodle, unfortunately he passed away at 17 years 🥹. I have experience managing reactive dogs. My fur baby was a rescue. I love my time with dogs because they are just pure joy! I work from home 4 days out of the week (7am-4pm). I typically commute to work on Wednesdays. My job is pretty relaxed and allows me to tend to any additional needs. I’m pretty flexible overall just need notice ahead of time. I am very trustworthy and customer service oriented. I like to ensure I know everything about the household I’m going to and any details about the fur baby that I should be aware of. My goal is to keep the fur baby safe and the owner happy.

About: I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of dog breeds, as well as cats. From high-energy playtime and daily walks to providing the gentle, attentive care that senior dogs need, I know how to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to feed, walk, and look after their furry family members. I maintain a flexible part-time routine, which gives me plenty of dedicated time to focus on your pets! I am fully available for weekend boarding, and on weekdays, I am ready to step in for walks, playtime, and companionship anytime. Because my schedule is highly predictable, you can count on consistent routines and timely updates for your furry family members. Keeping pets safe and comfortable matters most here. A spacious, completely enclosed yard offers plenty of room for supervised outdoor activity. The household runs quietly, adjusting smoothly to each pet’s habits. Crating happens when preferred by the pet or requested by you. Every detail, including feeding schedules, medications, and special directions, is followed exactly as given.

About: As an 18 year old, I have worked in various positions as a dog sitter, kennel technician, and training assistant providing many services to your furry friends. I also have strengths in communication and previously done housing cleaning in my area. I am currently a college student at the University of North Georgia, though I am focused in my studies I don’t have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Additionally, I am open to working weekends if scheduled in advance. If you need dates during Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I will be available after 2pm. I can only work remotely at a clients home or walking around their neighborhood, since I live in a student dorm/apartment. This includes overnight visits and check-ins.

This was a repeat housesitting stay with Jessica, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. We will happily book with her anytime she's available. We have two cats and a dog, and all three love her. One of our cats is extremely shy and typically takes a very long time to warm up to new people. During Jessica's first stay, she was incredibly patient and respectful, allowing our cat to set the pace for interactions rather than forcing attention. Because of that, our cat clearly remembered her and trusted her. Within minutes of Jessica arriving for this stay, she came right up to greet her and even allowed Jessica to pet her again, which is something she rarely does with people outside our family. Jessica communicates well, follows instructions carefully, and genuinely cares about the animals in her care. She sends regular updates and lots of wonderful photos, which always help put our minds at ease while we're away. Seeing our fur babies happy, comfortable, and well cared for means so much to us. One thing that really stood out to us was what happened when she wasn't available for a previous booking. Rather than simply declining, she introduced us to her sister, Natalie, who is also a Rover sitter. Because we'd had a bad experience with another sitter in the past, Jessica went out of her way to personally come to the meet and greet with Natalie to help everyone feel comfortable and make the transition smooth. She wasn't being paid for that time and wasn't even the one caring for our pets during that booking, but she still took the extra step because she genuinely wanted us and our pets to feel at ease. That meant a lot to us. Jessica is reliable, thoughtful, trustworthy, and professional. She also takes excellent care of our home. When we return, everything is clean, organized, and exactly as we left it. You'd hardly know anyone had been staying there. Most importantly, our pets are happy, relaxed, and stress-free when we get home. We couldn't ask for more and highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a past dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring. I provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of love so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently work 3 nights a week and make plenty of time for walks and play time. I live on my own and provide a safe, quiet home environment. I have no pets in my apartment. The complex does provide a spacious dog park and the silver comet trail with plenty of safe walking space.

About: I’ve been pet/house sitting for the last couple of years. The most animals I’ve worked with at one time is 4. I’m great with a schedule if your pet needs it. I love all pets and I can’t wait to get to know yours! I’m available most of the time I’m not working right now so the only time I won’t be free are for personal matters. I am looking for new work so this may change. I have worked with both larger and smaller dogs. If they are still working in training I can continue to work with them on what they know. I have helped train in the past but I haven’t done any primary training myself.

FAQs for House Sitting - Winston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 3,392 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Winston. 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 Winston 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 Winston 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 Winston 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Winston. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
