About: I’ve loved animals since I was a child, so working with animals, even if it’s just the simple things like; going on walks, making sure they’re fed, clean, playing with them, making sure they’re safe and loved. Overall I’m a super sweet person. Animals have a special place in my heart. Anyone who knows me knows, I’m always trying to find some pet to give lovings to. I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting since I was a little kid. It’s just so much fun to me. Since I’m really shy, I am the person you will find petting the dogs while there’s a party going on. I currently have no pets but, this is my job, it's not too consistent but I absolutely love animals and taking care of them. I've been doing Rover since 2019 and I would love to make this full time I want your fur babies to feel as comfy and happy as possible at all times. Play time and outside time is an absolute must!

Vanessa, thank you so, so much for taking great care of our pup. This was our first long time away from him and we’re as happy to see him as he is to see us. Thanks for all the great communication along the way.

Shannette was AMAZING. I HIGHLY recommend her. The app offers a service for nighttime dog sitting. We were able to arrange for daytime dog sitting in our home. My dog suffers stress-colitis and having him at a doggy hotel was not an option. Shannette was EXTREMELY trustworthy while we were away for 8 days on vacation. She kept him company at home, gave him lots of cuddles, checked in regularly with us, was punctual with walking him three times a day, cleaning his paws before entering the home after a walk (we have old carpet we’re trying to preserve) and always feeding him as scheduled. She was respectful of our home rules and I just can’t brag enough about how amazing Luca did while he was in her care. Our home was respected, our dog was cared for, and she was AMAZING as a human being! Don’t overthink it, book her. I HIGHLY recommend her!

We left our cherished Pitt Boxer, Zeke, in Erin's able care for five days, including overnite stays. We were so pleased with how they immediatley took to each other and knew that we had nothing to worry about as the family travelled to the West Coast. Erin was very responsible, looked after our home as requested, communicated frequently, sent pictures, and took great care of our boy. Erin is a delightful person, and Zeke has a new BFF. We highly recommend her.

I cannot say enough great things about Paige. She was extremely kind and caring toward our pups and took great care of them for the weekend we were away. She also was super communicative and gave us consistent updates about how our dogs were doing and how their days went, complete with picture updates as well. Which I really appreciate. She is an amazing pet/house sitter and if she is available, book her IMMEDIATELY! We will 1000% be booking Paige again!

Kelsey was great with our Goldendoodle! This was our first time using Rover and she came to meet Brodie the week before we went away. While we were away, she kept us updated with photos and took great care of him for two nights. We would book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking.

Celestine truly went above and beyond!! We were worried as this was the first time leaving our pets so long and with a housesitter, but after the first few hours it was clear all our pets were in amazing hands! Celestine showed clear love and understanding of animals. We were initially worried how our reactive dog would do while we were away, but Celestine worked with him with great care, patience, and clear expertise from training guide dogs, adjusting walking schedules for our reactive dog and doing some training. Updates were sent frequently and always with such aesthetic photos 🙂 We would trust Celestine to watch our pets again in a heartbeat 😊

About: I’m a past doggie daycare worker and have lots of experience taking care of small, medium, and large sized dogs. I love them as if they’re my own children - I have experience with senior care (giving medication, paying attention to their eating habits, doing whatever I can to make their experience the most comfortable). If you have any questions feel free to reach out! I'm only working part-time so I have lots of time to spend with your doggies! I'm available most days, just reach out and we can chat on what works best for you. :) When I go to your home, I can guarantee I will treat your dog with the utmost respect, and spend time and care for your pet as if they were my own.

About: What sets me apart is that I’m a certified dog trainer with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of breeds over the years. I’ve had dogs of my own and currently share my life with a beautiful Pitbull-mix named Thor. I truly understand the challenges of balancing a busy schedule while trying to train your pup or meet their everyday needs. My goal is to alleviate that stress by providing reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable support to both you and your dog. I currently work full-time, so my availability will primarily be on weekends, though I may have some flexibility during the week. If needed on weekdays, I can mainly assist with walking, house visits, or training sessions. I will do my best to accommodate the needs of both my clients and their pups. If there are any special requests, please let me know in advance so I can prepare accordingly and follow any preferences you may have.

We recently had Nora stay over for our 2 dogs, Honey and Louise. She came and met us and the dogs beforehand. What a sweet young lady and our dogs warmed up to her immediately. She sent updates and pictures throughout. Honey is a nervous nelly and I was so relieved to see her sleeping on the bed with Nora, quite content. She left the place spotless. I can't say enough good things about Nora. She is the best!! <3

FAQs for House Sitting - Aberdeen Township

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Aberdeen Township on Rover is $71.58 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 16,932 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aberdeen Township. 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 Township 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 Township 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 Township 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 Aberdeen Township. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
