“Gabby was great with our dog, she took great care of him and our house! The house was spotless on our return, and our normally anxious dog seemed as happy as usual which was a relief for us. She was very quick with communicating, we would definitely have Gabby sit for us again.”
“Elizabeth was amazing. My husband and I hired her to housesit and watch our two energetic pups while away for our wedding and honeymoon. She was very communicative and responsive which left us at ease. The pups seemed perfect and happy when we got back and even seemed like they wanted more time with her! She also left our house immaculate. Will book her again!”
“Olivia took excellent care of our 2 girls. She is a strong communicator and provides lots of photos which makes me feel good about leaving them. Our 2 dogs enjoyed getting fed, taking walks and getting cuddles, but mostly our Purdie loves playing ball, which Olivia graciously partook in. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Suzanne watched my 2 German shepherds for me, and really made them feel loved and cared for while I was away. They're already looking forward to their next overnight. Would highly recommend her!”
“Rowan was amazing! We have two dogs and three cats that she took great care of. We got pictures and updates everyday we were gone. She played with everyone and gave them all plenty of love! I definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”
“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”
“Sarah took very good care of my Reggie boy. I was very assured to find out she had experience as a Vet Tech and also worked as a groomer in the past. Thank you Sarah for taking such good care of our beloved Reggie?”
“Megan and Lee are awesome! It was so lovely getting to do a meet and greet before we left on our trip. They took wonderful care of the pets and I really enjoyed getting photos of the happy animals while we were away.”
“Highly recommend! Kristin was fantastic with our dogs. She is easy to communicate with, very experienced and loving with large rescue dogs, and handled our home and pups with great care. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was my first time leaving Greta in my house with a sitter from Rover, so I was a little nervous. There was absolutely no need, as Crystal was amazing and surpassed my expectations. I could tell right away that Greta really liked her, and based on the pictures I received, Greta was having a blast and was very well taken care of. I also loved how Crystal cleaned up and kept everything how I’d left it. Much appreciated after coming home from a long travel day! Would absolutely use Crystal again!”
“Could not ask for a better pet sitter, Bethany took exceptional care of our two dogs while we were on a four day trip. Kept us continually updated, Porche and Lexi were in great hands, loved the care she provided and Bethany kept us updated on their status throughout. Her attention to details and care of both pets and home were exceptional. We will be a repeat customer - Thank You”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience walking dogs, feeding, providing potty breaks, playing, and giving pets lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I also love cats and understand that every pet has their own personality. Whether they want to play, cuddle, explore, or simply have a calm companion nearby. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to routines so your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and give you peace of mind while you’re away! As a teacher, I have summers off, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive pet care throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time outside, so walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets company fit naturally into my routine. During the school year, I’m organized and used to managing schedules and responsibilities, and during the summer I have even more flexibility to accommodate visits, walks, feedings, and quality time with pets. I love creating a calm, dependable experience so pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and give pets plenty of attention and affection while respecting their individual needs and personality. Safety and trust are very important to me, so I pay close attention to instructions, keep environments clean and secure, and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I also communicate with owners through updates and photos so they feel confident knowing their pet is being cared for. If caring for pets in my own home, I would provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for while maintaining their usual routines as closely as possible.
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”
“Maggie is an incredible sitter! She has taken care of my dog, Nattie, on two separate trips of mine now and it is the most confident I’ve ever been that Nattie is safe, happy, and well looked after while I’m gone. Maggie sends me an update with pictures each day, along with any questions or concerns, and otherwise I can trust I don’t need to worry and enjoy my trip without stressing that something could be wrong. I love getting the pictures and hearing about how everything is going, and knowing Nattie is being given all the treats and walks and attention she needs and deserves. I would recommend Maggie to any dog mom looking for someone reliable and trustworthy!”
“Karen did such a great job watching our home and our animals. She left our home in the same condition she found it in and our animals are 100% happy. Would recommend her to anyone!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Amity
Olivia was great! She was reliable and stayed extra time with our dog cause we returned late from our trip. The house looked great and our high energy dog was clearly happy. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter and will likely be using her again in the future.
Olivia was wonderful with our two dogs. One of them unexpectedly needed medication during the time we were going to be on vacation and Olivia had no problem accommodating us at the last minute. Knowing that she was taking great care not only of our dogs, but of our house as well, gave us the peace of mind to be able to actually enjoy our time away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Adam was fantastic with my pups! Adam was very communicative, he was able to give my big guy his meds, spent plenty of time with them, and took them for walks! He kept me updated through his stay which I appreciated greatly. Highly recommend Adam and I will definitely book him again in the future!
Daniel was great - excellent communication and great with the pups. One of our pups took an instant liking to him and was asking for belly rubs during the meet and greet. We hired him to house sit during our wedding weekend and he even walked the dogs up to our wedding venue so we could take pictures with them on the day.
Sarah was fantastic! She was very communicative while I was away and sent lots of pictures and updates which I appreciated. Both of my fur babies were happy when I got home and I could see they had been extremely well taken care of. I will definitely book with her again.
My wife and I were exceedingly pleased and impressed with how Meagan and Lee took care of everything we asked them to do. That included managing the various tasks for each of our two dogs. Especially an older one with a schedule of multiple times for meds and careful handling with him going into our backyard having a limp from an injured leg. Beside these things, they were so friendly and easy to communicate with and cooperative from the initial contact, the meet and greet, and the in person contact before we left. An extra appreciated feature is how much and well Meagan provided daily updates and photos and responded courteously without delay to my text messages. And above and beyond, they also cleaned up before they left that was a pleasant thing to return to. We absolutely would want to arrange for Meagan and Lee to be home sitters with our dogs again.

Joseph was superb and stayed in constant communication with me and took wonderful care of my German Shepherd (Zak). Zak has some anxiety issues and was nippy on Joseph's first day but he worked through it and rapidly gained Zaks trust and affection I will be coming back for sure on my next trip
I would highly recommend Tarani to watch your pets. She stayed over for 9 nights and gave our dogs excellent care; she followed my instructions, asked questions and provided updates. I felt like I could enjoy my vacation knowing she was at our house talking to our dogs and giving them the care they’re used to. Thank you!
Reilly was very good with our three Shelties making them feel comfortable with her right away. She was prompt and reliable and followed the instructions for our dogs’ meds and feeding schedules just like we asked her to. We appreciated her quick responses to our checking in on how things were going, she even sent pics of our pups. It was very nice!

FAQs for House Sitting - Amity
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Amity on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,459 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Amity. 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 Amity 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 Amity 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 Amity 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
