“I had a last minute cancellation for pet sitting and was able to find Peter whom did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog. He took my dog on nice walking trails and gave me suggestions on caretaking him. Peter is really down to earth and I believe my dog really trusted and enjoyed his company. I am very grateful to Peter and hope he has success in pet sitting in the future!”
“Nico was great with our dogs, Sammy and Hazel! He stayed at our house and sent daily updates. The dogs seemed happy when we returned home! He was also very responsive leading up to the trip. It’s great to be able to leave for a long weekend and not worry. I would recommend Nico!”
“We used Kendra for the first time and she was fantastic. Unfortunately, the weekend she watched our dog was a complete washout with a nor'easter and rain the entire time. Our dog hates the rain, but Kendra did a great job getting him outside when she could and keeping him entertained indoors. We came home to a happy dog and would definitely book her again!”

She even watered my flowers which I was so grateful for!! Esp bc she found some still in pots I forgot to plant! Def give her a 5 star!! And use her again!”

About: I am an experienced pet sitter for dogs of all breeds & ages with over six years of personal and professional experience. Animals are my reason for joy! I currently work remotely part time, which is perfect for house sitting and being there for animals who need more attention and care. The rest of the week my schedule fluctuates based on my part time job schedule, with shifts ranging from 6-8 hours. I always make sure I have the contact information for not only the pets owners, but any emergency contacts such as trusted family members, neighbors, and vets for the safety of the animal and peace of mind for the owner.
“Ari is incredible. He is patient and kind and obviously cares a great deal for the pets he sits for. He went above and beyond and, most importantly, gave us peace of mind that Toby was in great hands while we were away. 10/10”
“It was such a relief having Hailey watch our dog while we were away. She took such good care of him, especially considering caring for his allergies can be a bit of a daunting task. Not only was he well cared for but he was definitely given a lot of love by her while we were away. Which also means the world to us. We would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi! I'm Casey, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, including eight dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, and goats. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I've gained years of hands-on experience working with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I also have experience caring for rescued animals, administering medications, and following specific feeding and care routines. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outside, or simply relaxing and getting some extra attention, I'm happy to adjust my care to what makes them most comfortable. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine while making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I currently work full-time remotely, which gives me excellent flexibility throughout the day. This allows me to accommodate different schedules and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I'm comfortable caring for multiple pets. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I'll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they're in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan visits around your pet’s routine and give them the time and attention they need. I follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I take time to build trust so your pet feels comfortable with me, and I’m careful about secure doors, gates, and leashes. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing.
“Shannon was absolutely amazing! She provided updates and pictures regularly. She took great care of our furry family member and we will absolutely book her again. Thank you Shannon!”
“Brian and Georgette are terrific house and pet sitters...they communicate well (just enough, not too much), took amazing care of our dog and left the house in great shape, just as we left it. We look forward to future opportunities to have them back.”
“Maya took great care of our home and dogs while we were away! She was communicative, responsible and patient with our 11 month old lab. Both of our dogs enjoyed their time with Maya.”
“Bryn was absolutely wonderful. During both a intro phone call and meet n greet, she asked so many good questions about Maclins behaviors and likes or dislikes. He has some anxiety, so when his behavior seemed a bit off at the beginning, she checked in just to let us know how he was doing and to ask if the behaviors were normal/what we usually do. Would absolutely recommend her and would also hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Ben provided great updates and care to our dog while we were away for the weekend. He also brought in all of our holiday packages that were delivered which was much appreciated. Your house and pet will be in great hands!”
“Brittany did 2 night house/dog sitting for my senior blind dog. She was very nice, communicative, and sent photos - no complaints here! One thing I really appreciated: there is a large gap in the day between feedings so informed her a head of time that she may leave for a bit like 1-4 hrs if needed for errands, appointments, etc (she did not ask! I came out with this and usually tell sitters this). I just dont want my dog alone all day and night as I work from home and am always here, and I do not want too much in and out or just walk ins. Closer to the scheduled sitting, she kindly let me know she would need to step out briefly which I confirmed was still fine. Without me asking her to do so, she messaged me when she left with expected time of return and messaged me when she officially returned”
About: Hello!! I've always had animals in my house (dogs, cats, guinea pigs...) and I also have experience dog, cat, and house sitting back in Austin. I have big golden retriever energy and can tire out the most hyper of animals but also love a cozy night in and can love on a quieter, shy dog/cat. Additionally, I have experienced all ages of dog through growing up with and caring for my dog, including: managing puppy rules and regiment and later administering medicine and staying alert for signs of stress or discomfort. I work part-time right now, so my schedule varies. But around my work, I have a lot of free time to care for yall's pets! I am very flexible and have had experience with a range of animals. And I always make sure to stay communicative and ask lots of questions so that your animal gets great, curated care.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Ambler is €60

Ben was fantastic! He kept me updated on Boots' medications and sent the cutest pictures of all 3 pups throughout his stay. He also took excellent care of our home, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others!
We just had Sarah watch our two dogs in our home for the second time and she was absolutely fantastic! One of our dogs recently hurt his leg and she went above and beyond administering his medication, walking him on a leash in our backyard, and keeping a close eye on him. Would 1000% recommend Sarah!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Ambler is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $123 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,690 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ambler. 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 Ambler 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 Ambler 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 Ambler 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
