“Ronny was incredibly attentive to our pets and patient with our dog. We have a dog that is not very trusting of new humans and Ronny took the time to work with him and earn his trust! He was attentive on giving us updates on how our dog was doing and how the rest of the animals were doing. 10/10 will book again 😊”

“Ashley took excellent care of our furbaby while we were away for the week. She communicated well and sent updates and photos regularly. Our dog had injured her nail prior to us leaving on the trip, and Ashley took such good care of it and kept me updated on her healing throughout the week. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Evan did such a great job watching our dogs today! This was our first time having him stay with them in our home and he made the whole day so much less stressful for us. He kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout the day, made sure everyone went outside and was comfortable. You can tell he genuinely enjoys animals and cared about making sure they were happy and relaxed. He was also really respectful of our home and even offered to help with chores before leaving which was so thoughtful. We came home to happy pups and would absolutely have Evan watch them again!”

The Boys were relaxed when we got home which tells me they were well tended to. We will definitely book Ryan again.”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now. I have three pups of our own and come from a family of pet lovers! Love spending time with pups and helping them keep comfortable in the comfort of their own home. I work full time in a flexible and hybrid environment. Whether the pups are with me or I am staying with the pups in the owner’s home, I make sure they are comfortable and getting all necessary activities. I will work with each pet family’s care guidelines to make sure they are getting the best and stress free care! For us, we have a fenced in yard which helps us with ongoing activities.

About: I have been watching dogs and cats full time since 2016. I am a housewife with 17years experience caring for my own dog. My children are animal lovers too. Right now we have a Central American Wood Turtle, a Leopard Gecko and Hermit Crabs. Also, in college I studied animal behavior. I love all animals and have had many different kinds of pets. I can watch farm animals such as chickens, ducks, goats,rabbits, and pigs. In addition, I can watch your pet at your place. I am trust worthy and neat. Finally, I am responsible and I will treat your dog like it is my own. Right now I am currently open from 5:40 to 9 pm. Please ask if you need to schedule a different time which most of the time I can be accommodating. I have a high fenced in yard that we check frequently. I can easily crate your dog if I go to walk other dogs or do drop in visits.

“Ashton was great with our two dogs! They warmed up to him almost immediately and he was very thoughtful in their care. He was very responsive and prudent with being on time and keeping them on a schedule. Also left the house exactly how he found it which was a huge relief being able to come home to a clean house! Would absolutely recommend!”

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a Small and Large Animal Veterinarian and specialize in Animal Psychology and Internal Medicine/Oncology. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job on Mondays, Wednesdays, and every other Saturday from 2:30 PM to 8:30 PM, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for my pet care clients. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to accurately reflect my availability, though occasional changes may arise. If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

About: I’ve held two jobs consisting of dog care, one which included stopping by houses to clean waste/greet clients and their dogs. Second, in a doggy daycare where I oversaw many dogs at once in daycare activities. As for boarding dogs, the chores consisted of walking, feeding, bathing, and giving enrichment to dogs. I’ve worked with anxious and aggressive dogs, younger and older dogs, small and big. But I have always loved all dogs. I’ve learned dog body language very well and have grown up with three. All dogs deserve the right care and happiness. I am very flexible and I am completely open! Sunday - Saturday , Morning - Night I’m around York, PA area & willing to commute far :) I am very detail oriented so when it comes to pet specific needs, I’m easy to work with. I take responsibility for my actions and aim to care for your pet the way they need. I understand every animal is different, every client is different, so I’m willing to learn and provide great communication.

About: What sets us apart is our dynamic as a dedicated sitters duo. With two pairs of hands, your pet gets double the attention, playtime, and walks. Because we don't have our own pets yet, your furry family member receives 100% of our focus and undivided love. We treat your home and pets with the ultimate care, ensuring a safe, personalized, and incredibly fun stay every single time. I currently work in a pet friendly office or have the flexibility to work from home if needed. I typically get home from in office work days around 5:30-6pm but that can be flexible if needed. I’m home most weekends and can care for your furry friends throughout the duration of the weekend. I live within a community that is within half a mile of a very large park! I also can travel to your home and have a ton of flexibility with whatever care your pet(s) need!

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all kinds and know firsthand the love and attention they need. From my first dog, Francis—a loyal Cocker Spaniel/Beagle mix who was part of the family for 16 years—to Olivia, a playful Boxer mix who brought joy for 9 years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with different personalities and health needs. Now, I’m lucky to share my life with Lulu, a 3-year-old Staffy and Pitbull mix. I treat every dog with the same love and care I give my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved. Taking care of pets is just part of my everyday life. I make sure there’s time for walks, play, meals, and plenty of love every day. I’m used to paying attention to what each dog needs—whether it’s some extra energy to burn or just some chill cuddle time. Basically, I fit pet care into my routine because I genuinely enjoy hanging out with dogs and making sure they’re happy. I live in a quiet apartment with my dog Lulu, which provides a calm and safe environment for pets. I’m also close to several parks with plenty of space for walks and playtime, so your fur baby will get lots of exercise and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or during in-home visits, I always make sure water is available and follow feeding routines tailored to your dog’s needs. I take pride in giving attentive walks, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love to keep your dog happy and comfortable while you’re away.

Outside of those hours I am happy to do what I can to support you and your pet. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions. Having 3 cats, I know they do not love having new people over.

“Tabby was an exceptional house/dog sitter who accepted a last minute request for Thanksgiving week. I was thankful the previous dog sitter cancelled b/c I am so fortunate to find her. She would send daily updates, ask thoughtful questions and so many other little things that really added up (collecting mail, keeping up with my Xmas countdown, making the bed to it looked like a hotel bed, leaving the house looking as if no one was there at all). See? She was all around the perfect dog sitter. On top of all of that I felt so comfortable with her. She has a way of making you feel like you’ve known her a lot longer than you have. It was refreshing to know that our dogs were in good hands while we were away for Thanksgiving. I can’t say enough good things about her! 10/10 recommend and will absolutely book with her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Admire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 1,094 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Admire. 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 Admire 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 Admire 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 Admire 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Admire. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
