About: I've always had a passion for animals in my life, typically having my own. In the past 10 years I've been very serious with working with animal shelters, training, petsitting, and fostering. I have recommendations, references and all of the passion in the world for pets, especially dogs, but very much enjoy all 🥰 I work from home and am readily available and flexible. I take breaks any time necessary. Your pet will have my full attention. I also allow furniture and bed access, if that's allowed by you. I can care at a moments notice. I rarely leave town or am too busy. My rates as per my profile are negotiable especially when there are multiple pets, in which I have had quite a bit of experience. I have a spacious apartment and provide many walks, as well as parks and fulfilling, peaceful walk access. I keep a clean environment and attend to any special needs. I live alone so any pet would just have access to me. I take heed on all needs and wants for your pet. I have supplies, such as toys, leashes, water bowls, etc. I basically provide doggy spa days, as my friends and clients call them. However, I am accustomed to and am happy about housesitting for the fur babies.
About: Raised and cared for dogs and cats my whole life—trusted, attentive, and reliable, treating every dog or cat like family while ensuring comfort, safety, and happiness at all times. I work from home in medical billing, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. With a supportive household, there is always someone available to provide care, attention, and a safe, loving environment for pets. I do not have a fenced yard; however, I ensure dogs remain active and engaged through multiple daily walks. For safety, my dogs are crate-trained, and I can accommodate crating or separation as needed. I am happy to provide slow, supervised introductions or keep pets separated at all times to match your comfort level. I prioritize supervision, structure, and maintaining a calm, loving environment for every dog in my care.
“Jennifer watched out two 6 month Standard Poodles for a long weekend. It was so reassuring to have someone who loved our pups and took such good care of them. We look forward to using her services again. Thanks, Jennifer!”
“Maria was very caring and considerate. She texted updates and pictures. She also responded quickly to any questions or concerns I may have had. My home and puppy were perfect on my return. Looking forward to calling her again!”
“I had a great experience with Theresa while I was away for a few days. She was very attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure my pets were comfortable and well taken care of. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent pictures every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while traveling. Communication was excellent, and I could tell my pets were in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
About: I have more then 15 years with dogs, cats and birds. I have worked with vets with dogs under my care. Dogs with medical conditions and healthy ones. I treat all animals with respect and all the love they deserve. While in my care I provide all that I would for my own. I have had up to 14 dogs in my care at once before, walked fed and love each of them. I have routines I follow for each pet I care for and will follow in home care routine as well. For daycare services I have a fenced yard and enough grounds to walk and keep pets busy. I do require all pets in my care to have shots, flea and tick treatment up to date with proof. All pets MUST be friendly with my own. All pets in my care must be house trained and when possible create trained. If you have a high energy dog that needs to be busy all day I can provide the exercise.
“10/10 recommend. Katia took amazing care of our girl Kendall. Gave us frequent updates, pictures, and videos. This is the first time we have used the service and we’re a little nervous how it would go but Katia put us a t ease and loved on our girl the same way we do maybe even better lol. Thank you so much. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Jessica was super attentive to our 100 pound baby. He is 4 but gets anxious and does not like thunder. Jessica made sure he got lots of walks and ball playing to help balance his energy. We feel lucky that we found someone that can keep him company and happy!”
“Christine was absolutely amazing watching our dogs while we were on vacation. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She treated them like her own — giving them love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Christine kept us updated with messages and pictures, which meant so much and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. When we came home, our dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and genuine love for animals. We would highly recommend Christine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She is the best!”
“Malynda was great with our clan!!! She checked in a lot, sent photos and went above and beyond for our pets. I know it was a successful and great week for my pets and she sent me photos of the timid cats getting pets from her and treats!! I highly recommend her.”
About: I’m a dog owner myself with two dogs, one of whom has special needs, so I understand how to care for pets of all abilities. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every animal like family — your pet will be in great hands while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own. I’m available most days and can accommodate both short visits and longer stays. I’m flexible with timing and will make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and exercise. I have two dogs at home, one of whom has mobility issues, so i know firsthand what it means to be attentive to a pets individual needs. I keep a calm, pet-friendly environment and take safety seriously. Your dog will be treated with the same love and care I give my own.

“Kelly was great!! She stayed at our home for five nights and took excellent care of our two dogs. It was amazing to have someone with so much experience. My dog Kato requires medication daily.

I can't recommend Emily highly enough. She stayed at my house and watched my maltipoo for over two weeks, and she did an absolutely amazing job. I'd never met her before, so naturally I had some nerves about handing over my home and my dog to someone new, but those disappeared fast. She earned my complete trust. She took wonderful care of the house and even better care of Baxter, who was clearly happy and well looked after the whole time. On top of that, she kept me updated regularly, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Emily was an incredible find, and I'd welcome her back in a heartbeat. If you're looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring, she's the one.
Julia was great! She took my dogs on walks, she sent pictures of them, and communicated very well. When I got home I could tell my dogs were well taken care of and they were treated as if they were her own dogs. My flight home get delayed and Julia was even willing to run back over and let them out again. She is very nice, professional, and left my home in better shape than I left it. I definitely recommend Julia and will book her again when I can!

5 stars isn’t enough to express the care that my babies received. Eric was highly communicative and also mindful of quirky requests that I made regarding food and sleeping arrangements for my old bestie. My pups were literally on vacation while I was out of town and that is an awesome experience all around.
Christine was absolutely amazing watching our dogs while we were on vacation. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She treated them like her own — giving them love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Christine kept us updated with messages and pictures, which meant so much and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. When we came home, our dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for.

Andrew took really good care of NY 4 year old Boxer, Tucker in my home while I was away for 5 days. He kept me informed on how he was doing throughout his stay at my home, including beautiful pictures of him walking, relaxing and playing. Not only did he do a good job providing his pet sitting services, he also kept the areas allowed in our home neat and tidy. I highly recommend Andrew as a great pet sitter. I will request his services again for my future pet sitting needs. Thank Andrew for a job well done.
Taylor was great! We have 2 high energy dogs and she came over often and gave them plenty of attention. She even let them have pool time and took them for a walk which they loved. She also sent updates and photos which was very nice. We will definitely keep her in mind for future visits!
Isabella was amazing with my Lola. She played with her and kept up with Lola’s high energy. She also communicated w my everyday and sent pictures as well. I would highly recommend Isabella to anyone who is worried leaving their dog for the first time, bc Isabella will take great care of them

FAQs for House Sitting - Aberdeen
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aberdeen on Rover is $49.98 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 3,091 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aberdeen. 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 Aberdeen 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 Aberdeen 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 Aberdeen 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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
