“Deborah was fantastic! She watched my 10 year old rescue lab mix for a week, who required daily meds and lots of attention. She made adjustments to make sure she kept up with regular meds and eating. She also provided frequent updates and pictures! ❤️ Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover and a pet sitter. Lillie was communicative from the very beginning and throughout the week. She provided excellent care for our 17 year old cat and 6 year old sheltie. We came home to happy animals and a house that looked like no one had been in it. Will definitely use her again.”
“Anna was great! She cared for our dog, gave detailed daily updates and sent lots of pictures. My pup was happy and healthy when I got home from my trip. Will be requesting another house sitting service soon!”
About: I’ve taken care of many different fury friends since I was a kid. I have currently have a dog of my own, but enjoy quality time with all animals:) I just graduated PA school and have not found a job yet, so I’m looking to make extra money. I have pretty open availability during the week. I love all animals! I respect all homes and make sure to leave everything better than I found it! I appreciate any tips/tricks to give your animal the best experience possible.
“Hanna was really great. She was super accommodating for the very last minute booking. My dogs also loved her and that’s what I was most worried about. I was planning this trip for a few days and had my sister ready to watch my dogs but suddenly we had an extra dog in the house that my sister rehome three years ago. So I booked with Hanna and didn’t do a meet n greet at all. She sent lots of pictures for me and took my two 50 pound huskies on long walks all over my small town. The fact that my dogs even left my house with her says a lot about how much they loved her right away. I’m very grateful and would recommend and definitely book with her again.”
“Megan has been staying in our home, caring for our dog when we travel for several years now. She always does a wonderful job taking great care of our Darcy and our house is always well taken care of as well!”
“MacKenzie was great, staying the night with our dog Maizie and cat Woody. We had to cut our trip short and she was very understanding. You can tell she loves animals and that's the #1 thing we would look for.”
“Jersey was absolutely phenomenal! Luna loved her! Jersey sent me pictures and updates on her and how things were going. She was taken on walks and played with and was even tired out when I came home! She brought her dog with her (with permission) so Luna got plenty of play time. Overall Jersey was polite, punctual and an amazing dog sitter. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Skyler was awesome as always! Pleasant to communicate with, liked by my critters, very attentive to instructions, and excellent with updates on how the animals are doing. I would highly recommend!”
About: I can work with dogs that have anxiety and aggressive. And cats too and any other animals. As I love animals of any size big or small Saturday-Sunday I can do anytime Monday-Friday after 2:30pm unless I'm staying in the house sitting and petsitting. Then time doesn't really matter as much then. Environment would be your home as I rent and they don't allow petsitting. Depends if yard is fence area if it is then I will play ball with them.
“Amaya did a great job of caring for my elderly greyhound and my lively rat terrier mix while I was away for two weeks. Both of them have complicated medication regimens, but she handled it all like pro. I appreciated that she contacted me when she had questions about my older dog. I think my girls loved having her stay with them.”
“Murphy is not accustomed to being with someone else. He loved Kevin. Kevin kept me informed so I could relax. I know he really cared about Murphy and his well-being. Thank you Kevin”

FAQs for House Sitting - Wright
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,032 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wright. 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 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 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.

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.
