“Great to receive lots of pictures of our fur babies while we were gone. Responsible sitter with good communication and care of the dogs. Will definitely use again.”
“Lauren is absolutely phenomenal! I don’t leave my dog with too many people - she’s my baby (and quite particular/quirky about things) She went above and beyond with Nova. Her communication was wonderful, she sent photos and reassuring messages letting me know how their day/evening was, and she was friendly!!! Good vibes immediately and felt completely at ease leaving my dog in her care. Can’t say enough good things!! 💛🐕”
“Excellent! This was the first time we used Rover. Holly was absolutely wonderful. She sent us a pic every day, with a little detail on how our Chloe was doing. She even brought over some tennis balls to play with. I had left very detailed instructions on how to care for Chloe—probably more than was necessary. Holly was very gracious and reassuring. Just a great experience.”
“I could not possibly say enough about how wonderful Eli was with my pets! I got great communication, pictures, and came home to a tidy house!! It was such a wonderful surprise. Eli really went the extra mile and will be my preferred sitter from now on!! I wish I could give Eli more stars!!!!”
“Kimberly was so attentive to all of our dogs needs! She made sure they were safe, happy, & healthy. We have more high maintenance dogs and she was the perfect sitter for them. In addition to making sure our dogs were perfectly taken care of, she went above and beyond with house sitting too! My house is going to be sad I’m back because Kimberly took such great care of the house and garden! 🥰”
“We loved having Alexia stay with our pup! We came home to a happy bouncing pup, and we knew he was so very well taken care of by the way Alexia sent pictures every day, having all kinds of cuddles and fun. Would recommend her 110 % and can’t wait to have her sit for us again.”
“Mary and Marty were absolutely incredible! They took such great care of my dog and my home while I was away. My pup required multiple medications daily, and they handled everything flawlessly. Their communication was excellent—I received regular updates and adorable pictures throughout my vacation, which gave me peace of mind. On top of that, I returned to a spotless home. I couldn't have asked for better pet sitters and would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Gia was an excellent house sitter and pet sitter. I have two older cats, and was a little nervous about leaving them for two weeks. But when I returned, my house was clean, my cats were happy and well fed, and my mail was stacked on the kitchen table. Gia contacted me several times during my vacation, and sent photographs and video of the cats at home. I highly recommend her!”
“Laylani did an amazing job caring for our pets while we were on vacation! Our family flaked on us, and Laylani made what could have been a stressful situation super easy from the start (before we even left!) Her communication was excellent! She gave us daily updates, many with pictures. We knew our pets were in great hands while we were gone! She also saved us from potential disaster when our return flight was canceled last minute! We really can’t say enough good things about Laylani, and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Riley did a great job watching my two dogs. One needed daily pills and the other needed insulin shots. He also did house sitting for 5 days. I felt very comfortable with him at the house and didn't worry at all. Things were perfect when I returned home. He's very responsive to texts and extremely considerate. I would recommend him to anyone.”
“April watched our gaggle of pups when we had to unexpectedly go out of town. She did an amazing job with them, was responsive, and I felt at ease knowing she had a handle on our crew. We have a puppy and an older guy needing medical care and she handled both so well. I would definitely recommend April!”
About: I grew up with multiple pets from dogs, cats, guinea pigs, you name it. I’ve always loved animals and feel I connect with them on a different level. I would love to help pet owners out and also reap the benefits of spending time with new furry friends myself :) I currently work from home every day aside from Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I am able and willing to adjust to fit the needs of pet owners! I will be very attentive and available, sure to give attention to any pets I am watching as requested. I have multiple parks near me that are very dog friendly and a short walk away. I have grown up with many animals and know their needs. I am motivated to help others and their pets!
About: My family has always owned one or more dogs or many different breeds since I was born which gave me lots of experience in pet care. I want to ensure that animals are happy and well taken care of. They are a part of our families too. i do go to school and work but i’ve always been good at balancing a schedule and will always be on time. i could dog sit almost everyday and do a good job. i would take care of your pet and your home like they were my own. i believe that if you are going to do something you should do it right.
“Sydney was a godsend with our 2 dogs. She met them twice before our trip since we have a nervous pup & she put her right at ease. I've never seen our girl be so good with someone so quickly. We got regular updates & pictures & I know that our doggies were in the best hands while we were gone. Will 100% be contacting her again! She's the best!”
“This is not our first Rover experience, but it was our best! Hannah was in constant contact with us texting pictures on walks, while eating and playing. She made us feel like our fur child was being well cared for. On returning, we found a happy and healthy boy and a house that was in great shape. Hannah will be our go to dog whisperer and sitter. Our Mowgli really felt at ease in our absence with her. Thank you, Hannah!!!”
“Allie was amazing with my 2 pitties. She’s thorough, trustworthy and cared for my dogs like they were her own. I’m so happy I found someone I can trust with my dogs when I leave town. Highly recommend!!”
“Sabrina was amazing with my pups. Sabrina was very professional. Sabrina was quick to respond to messages and work with us on such short notice. If your looking for the perfect sitter, look no further than Sabrina.”
About: I’ve worked at a dog hotel, and I’ve pet sat for both cats and dogs. I’ve never met a dog that didn’t like me, and I’ve never met a cat that didn’t tolerate me. I’m a student pilot, so some days I have about 2 and a half hours where I won’t be available. Otherwise I have a very flexible schedule and can spend all day or any time caring for your pet. I don’t have any pets of my own, but I’m good at making anyone’s pets friendly with me. I’ve done daily check-ins and up to two weeks staying at someone’s house to keep their dog active and happy.
“Samantha was amazing! She was very professional and my dogs immediately took to her. I have never had someone watch my dogs at our house and I was very nervous but she put my mind at ease and I will definitely be using her for future bookings!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aberdeen on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 344 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.

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.
