“Gislene did a great job. She watched our house and our dog for us. She communicates very well with daily texts and pictures and our dog was very comfortable with her. We highly recommend her to others.”
“Amber showed up early and seemed to care / listen to our directions and concerns. She sent photo updates and took the dogs on a long walk, which they enjoyed! We appreciated her responsible nature and seemed genuinely kind to the dogs. We recommend her to everyone looking for a reliable person.”
“Darsy was great with our two pups! We decided on house sitting because our newest addition has been picky about other dog friends she meets. Darsy provided updates and photos daily and stuck to their routine. We will definitely be reaching out to Darsy in the future.”
“Jamie was wonderful! The dogs loved her. Our little 4 pound Yorkie is a Momma’s girl and will not even take treats from strangers but she ate out of Jamie’s hand! Jamie kept us updated while we were gone and took some really cute pictures. We will definitely use her again the next time we are in the area.”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs for 5 years! I am happy to do overnights or house sitting. I am comfortable administering supplements or medications, minor grooming such as brushing or bathing as part of requested maintenance. I started dog sitting for family friends, neighbors and co-workers. I have experience with higher maintenance senior pets that have needed a close watch for bathroom cues, medicine and supplement administration, as well as special meals catered to their needs. I have also taken care of a range of breeds such as XL breeds like Mountain Curs or Bernese Mountain Dogs, large/mid such as labs, pit-bull mixes, a Norwegian Elk Hound or breeds as petite as a miniature dachshund. I have a free schedule for booking, I am generally available for weekend hours within reasonable notice. Otherwise, I am very flexible with scheduling and accommodations! I am comfortable with any and all kinds of visits ranging from potty breaks to house sitting stays, fenced yard or free range pups, walking, meals and supplements as well as crating your fur baby as needed.
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was young, from hamsters to fish to dogs and more. I've managed both calm and trouble making animals and have experience dealing with the full age range of pets due to my personal experience as a dog owner, and from my time volunteering as a foster home for dog shelters. I'm currently working part-time, and so I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I'm available for just about hour of day for any period of time. Taking care of animals has been my weekly norm since I was a kid, so it's just what I'm used to. I have a large fenced yard for pets to feel free and roam around, and I've a multitude of my own resources at home such as bowls, crates, and pens to be used as needed. I usually like to give a pet a feel of independence to wander however they'd like throughout the home and yard, but can easily step in if greater supervision is needed. I'm usually always in the same space as my animals.
“We loved Christine! This is our first time using ROVER for pet sitting. Christine was easy to communicate with. She responded right away and kept us updated. We had some change in our plans and Christine was flexible to adjust with us. Most importantly my puppy loved her! You can tell when someone is a good person by your pets reaction to them. She was proactive in following my pet's feeding and care plan. We definitely will ask her to come, again!”
“Destiny was an excellent dog sitter. She was attentive, communicative, and made the entire experience stress-free. My dogs felt comfortable with her right away, which says a lot about her calm and caring nature. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care.”
About: I love 🐕 🐶 . We foster a lot. It's nice to get all the unconditional love from our precious pets. Dogs are man's best friend I'm a stay at home mom. I have a husband and 8yo twins living in our home. I am a great caregiver. I love what do I have a fenced yard and 2 of my own medium size rescue dogs. I am very responsible and caring for my clients and their furbabies.
About: I’ve grown up on a horse farm and have had multiple dogs since I was a child. Taking care of the dogs has always been my job while I am home. I am currently in between jobs in my field and am looking to fill the gap I love animals and want to help out where can while also making some pocket change. I am extremely trustworthy and reliable. Somewhat of a people pleaser and will do everything by whatever rules and steps you request. Willing to go on long walks to entertain pups and could potentially bring one of my small dogs along to socialize if preferred.
“Jana was amazing with Ralphie and Barley! She stayed for five nights, spent plenty of time hanging out with them, and sent photos and constant updates on how they were doing and behaving. We felt completely at ease while we were away. Highly recommend her for in-home dog sitting!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15! I took a break while I was getting my masters degree abroad and although now I am back working a full-time job in HR I still miss having a furry friend around. I grew up with my family fostering many dogs throughout the years and we are all dog lovers. I have experience volunteering with rescue animals such as horses, lizards, cats, and dogs. Additionally, I just started volunteering at the Alaqua rescue! I work in human resources and recently graduated with my masters, which I got in Ireland this year. I work a 980 schedule and I am off every other Friday and work from home on my on Friday. Although I do not care for pets in my home I have had years of experience building strong relationships with my clients by providing consistent and reliable service in their homes.
About: I Need a dog fix! I currently don’t have a dog although I have for most of my life! I grew up with mixed breeds and many animals, had a Great Pyrenees, golden retriever and then a hot dog, also I Have taken care of friends’ dogs when I lived up north. I have lived in Florida for nine years, I know where dog parks are ( if it is approved by owners). I have worked in the health field with a variety of illnesses, also the short term rental & HOA field. I have always been amazed by service animals, therapy animals and have considered becoming a dog groomer. I love dogs and now have more flexibility and availability for doing what I love! I’m healthy , active and know the area, don’t mind traveling I’m currently retired and working just 2-3x/week 1-6pm. I have lots of energy and have an elderly cat right now so I cannot board dogs at this time . I’m around on the weekends and mostly available! I know the area well and can drive to clients homes, I can transport pets as needed, eventually I would be able to board dogs in my home.
“Jenna was absolutely fantastic. She was willing to sit for our dog last minute when our other dog sitter backed out. She communicated daily, and left our house better than she found it. Our dog was so happy and gave me peace of mind while we were away.”
“Joshua is the best!!! He was available to watch my two pups on short notice. Took excellent care of them, and they were happy and comforted while I was away. I highly recommend him!!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wright
Julie was amazing! She hopped in when I had a last minute trip that I needed help with taking care of my two older pups. She took amazing care of them, sent me pictures and updated every time and was so considerate. She even left them treats and goodies when I returned! Will absolutely be using her again.
Auriel was absolutely wonderful with our furbabies. From the moment she arrived, she was attentive, patient, and genuinely caring toward each of our four animals. She took the time to learn their individual personalities and quirks, and it showed in how quickly they warmed up to her. They absolutely loved her, and we could tell they felt safe and happy in her care. She kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away, which meant so much to our family. Knowing our pets were in such good hands made all the difference. We would recommend Auriel without hesitation and will definitely be calling on her again!
Jess is amazing and we are so happy with choosing her for our pet sitter! She has been so amazing to send us photos and texts of our fur baby the whole trip. We have not left our pup with anyone overnight before this trip and Jess made it so much easier knowing she was so well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing an in home pet sitter! She is adorable!
Karycelis was able to help me on very short notice with in-home sitting. She stayed in consistent contact, asked questions when needed, and gave me complete peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.
Darsy was great with our two pups! We decided on house sitting because our newest addition has been picky about other dog friends she meets. Darsy provided updates and photos daily and stuck to their routine. We will definitely be reaching out to Darsy in the future.

The average cost of House Sitting in Wright is $53 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $90 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Wright 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 Wright 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 Wright 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.

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.
