“Crystal was awesome with our little feline critter, Lola, when she cat/house sat for us recently. She kept us updated with photos & helped Lola emotionally while we traveled. So lovely to be able to have a trusted sitter … peace of mind embodied in a very kind animal loving pet sitter. Thanks Crystal! Hope you’re still available for when we travel again.”
“I am so happy I reached out through Rover to Joshua. I have two large dogs and one of them has endless energy, two large cats, a leopard gecko and 10 chickens. Kind of last minute, I decided to take a quick weekend trip. My younger dog is a handful and I was worried that I would not find the person to understand and care for my puppy and all the others. Then I contacted Joshua. Punctual, polite, knowledgeable about breeds and specifics and best of all!?!? Finn likes him. I had a wonderful trip. Joshua sent photos and videos and kept me updated on how everything was at home. He stayed at my home and also hous sat for me. Joshua kept the house the way I keep it. He made ire to collect my mail and some medicine that was accidentally shipped and needed to be refrigerated. I would highly recommend Joshua for both house sitting and keeping a bunch af what most people would refer to as a group of large animals. Thank you Joshua!!!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for a total of 30 years of my life. I have owned or cared for a total of 10 cats as well as 4 dogs. The dogs were a shiba inu, a german shephard, and 2 border collies. I also have experience with younger cats and younger dogs, house training, and administering medicine depending on needs for the animai. I currently own 2 cats Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine because I currently work from home, and I can at any point drive to care for an animal, give a walk, feed, or give medicine. I am extremely flexible in my time during regular work hours, after hours, or odd hours as needed. I care for pets at a client's home by making sure I am following all instructions given to me. It starts with how I enter the home, making sure I use the correct door to enter the home (if a side door is preferred,etc.) using a key code if needed, and then always making sure a dog is leashed before opening a door to go outside. I am very cautious and careful about other people's animals, and I always ensure they are safe and treated properly, as if they were my own.
“Marie was wonderful. My dog is usually very shy with new people but she was Marie’s best friend. Marie handled medications so well and was very kind and loving. Sent pictures twice a day.”
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life! Right now, I have a two-year-old puppy named Winston. If you ask any of my friends, they'll tell you that I'm the first person to stop and pet any dog! I love all dogs and get so much joy out of spending time with and taking care of them. Don't worry - Winston doesn't live with me so your dog will be the center of attention! I typically work Monday-Friday, 8am-4:30pm but my schedule can be flexible so please reach out ! Allentown, Quakertown, or anywhere in between would be most convenient :) but just let me know what you and your dog’s needs are and I’ll always do my best to accommodate/communicate with you. The care I give depends on you! I’ll make sure your dog gets everything they need and provide lots of playtime and pets too. Tell me everything about them (when and what they eat, how often to let them out and/or go on walks, their personality, etc.) I've worked with dogs of all ages too; for puppies, I have lots of experience with both crate and potty training.
“Morgan is the best! She sent us so many updates throughout her stay with our girl, and was so respectful of our routine we have in place with Ginny. Our house was cleaner than we left it when we got home, and Ginny was exhausted from a weekend of fun. We absolutely plan to ask Morgan to watch Ginny in the future!”
“Aaron went above and beyond with our dog; we knew he would after an incredible meet n greet. He walked our dog several times AND played ball with her in backyard. She ate her dinner with him and rested comfortably with him after she tired out! Aaron sent us great pictures and updates. Definitely calling on him again. And it was Christmas, spending 5 hours with our dog.”
“Sara was wonderful! We met prior to my trip. She took care of my 2 kitties while I was away. I would def use her again. I appreciate getting pictures of my fur babies while I was away.”
“Wydia was so awesome with our puppy. She’s extremely personable and accommodating. I was impressed by her timeliness and level of commitment. She offers great suggestions without being pushy. She gelled so well with all the family members and this is huge because it’s our first dog and we’re nervous about everything. So grateful to have found her, it definitely inspires confidence in us to know that we could use Rover to reach out skilled and loving pet lovers who live up to their great reviews and provide reliable service.”
About: I Love dogs, since my dog has passed away several years ago I enjoy pet sitting to fill the void. Animals are love. Your animal will be cared for and loved the way you would. We have a fenced in yard which your animal can play in and he will not be ignored or cooped up. We have had many dogs in the past but do not currently have one. Good with large dogs, or all sizes, really, Many people have trusted us with their dogs but now I am trying this service hoping it works well on all ends, it seems like a good idea. Your animal will be in a safe environment and you can get regular updates. Thank you for considering me. I am currently tele commuting working from home. Your dog won't be left alone for hours on end and will not be ignored. Usually home 7 days a week The yard is fenced in, and I have also been using an apple air tag as an extra level of security. Making sure your dog never gets away is the highest priority.
About: My name is Nestle & I am a certified dog trainer through animal behavior college. I have been a dog trainer for 10 years. I train all breeds even Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, German Shepards, Cane corsos etc. For training I always use positive reinforement. I also teach basic obedience as well and work with any dog with any issue. I used to work at Petco for 4 years so I am knowledgeable about nutrition, pet products, pet care etc. I also have experience in grooming. I have experience working at 2 doggie daycares as well. I also used to volunteer at an animal shelter (peaceable kingdom) and walk the dogs there. I currently have 6 pets I have a sun conure, crested gecko, 2 leopard geckos & 2 dogs (Bichon & Maltese). I have been working for rover for over 3 years. I am an animal lover. I have a 6 year old who is also friendly with animals. I have experience with all types of animals all are welcomed! My goal is help others in need and save animal lives. I work part time at a family owned jewelry store and they are all pet lovers as well. I have a flexible schedule and we are usually closed for holidays. When I go to a clients house to walk their dog or just do a drop in I make sure everything is taken care of. Pups come first and I always ask the client if they need anything additional done around the house. I don’t mind cleaning or helping out. I can take care of other animals such as hamsters, Guinea pigs, reptiles, birds, fish, etc. before leaving a clients house I make sure all doors are locked, the pups are good & settled and the home is secure before heading out. For clients to feel comfortable I do take lots of pictures and videos of their pup and if they want to FaceTime their pup I’m fine with that too.
“Gabrielle was amazing with all 4 of our fur babies while we were away in vacation. She sent daily updates and pictures so communication was great. Not too much and not too little. She was even able to get some love from our highly antisocial kitty. I will definitely be reaching out again when we need her again!! Thank you Again Gabby!”
“We couldn't be happier with the way Eren and Luca cared for our two young cats while we were away! They gave them so much love and attention, and were very patient with our skittish kitty, monitoring him carefully to make sure he was getting enough food when he was too anxious to eat at regular mealtimes. They were great about checking in and sent us lots of video and photo updates, making it easy for us to relax during our trip in the confidence that our cats were being well taken care of. They followed our instructions carefully and left our house just as they found it. We highly recommend them!”
About: I’ve lived with and helped care for dogs since I can remember, and cats for the past decade now. I truly believe that our pets are a part of our family, and will bring that approach and belief with me into your homes. In the past 10 years I have helped raise 4 dogs and 4 cats, as well as caring for an elderly dog requiring special care. I hold a passion for animal safety and care, and believe that will show in my work. In our household I am an active participant in pet care. Typically I am involved in feeding both cats and dogs, taking dogs outside as needed, helping clean litter boxes as needed, etc; most often on a daily basis. In addition to the typical pet care information already provided, I take great care in providing a safe and fun environment for our pets. That includes playing with both the dogs and cats, taking our dogs on walks, etc. Overtime, our household has gotten to where we are now with 3 dogs and 4 cats total. I’ve come to learn and appreciate all of their individual quirks and personalities, and that only helps me care for them better. I look forward to meeting and getting to know your pets as well!
“Erica is amazing! She took such great, loving care of my lab!!!! she sent many pictures and updates and I could see how happy my dog was! I travel a lot for work so this gave a great peace of mind! i highly recommend her!!!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Amity
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Alexa! We were honestly nervous about leaving our dogs because we had a bad boarding experience in the past, but Alexa completely put our minds at ease. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cared about our dogs. She kept us updated with messages and photos, and knowing they were safe, happy, and so well cared for made it possible for us to truly enjoy our time away. When we came home, our dogs were relaxed, happy, and clearly loved. That says everything. Alexa went above and beyond, and we are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care she provided. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pets. Thank you, Alexa!
Tim was fantastic with Blue and Emmett! We came home to two happy, relaxed dogs, which told us everything we needed to know about how well they were cared for. Tim was polite, respectful, and clearly took great care not just of our pups but of our home too. It's such a relief to travel knowing your dogs (and your house) are in good hands. We'd absolutely recommend Tim and will be booking him again for our next trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Amity is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $30 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 November 2026, there are 2,769 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Amity. On Rover:
- 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.
