About: 3+ years of caregiving experience, I provide dependable, loving care for your pets while you’re away. From daily walks to overnight stays, your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I’m an active-duty Navy service member living on base with a lifelong love of animals. Since I can’t have pets of my own right now, I enjoy pet sitting as a way to spend time with and care for animals. I grew up around a variety of pets, have reliable transportation. I am available evenings, weekends, and over nights. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, litter box or yard maintenance, and plenty of attention and affection.
“I'd recommend Melissa to ANYONE looking for of a kind, professional and trusting Petsitter. ❤️ she took such good care of my fur babies, was very communicative, and sent awesome pictures/recurring updates. I loved coming home to happy puppies that clearly looked like hey had the best time with Melissa. Thank you so much, girl ❤️”
“Grant and Yunrui took great care of our dog, Ellie, for a full week at our house. We appreciated that they did a meet and greet ahead of time so we could make sure it was a good fit. They sent pictures and an update every night and Ellie seemed very happy when we got back. Thank you!”
“Paige was amazing with our dogs! She sent us tons of pictures and was in communication with us the entire time she was with our pups. Paige could definitely tell how nervous I was to leave my pups with someone new and she helped ease my fears through this whole process. She was a respectful house guest and left our home neat and tidy. My pups love her and so do we. Will be booking all my future Rovers with her!!”
“Zach did a great job, my 2 dogs and cat really liked him and he gave them all the attention they needed. He is very kind and gentle with my little ones. Will definitely use him again.”
About: I have been around dogs and other pets my entire life, I am looking to get into training dogs professionally. I have walked dogs since I was 8 and have house sat for families with all kinds of animals. I am currently building my real estate business so when I am not on the phone or showing houses I am free to take care of pets and helping anyone out! I have two very high energy dogs at home and grew up with a little 10 pound dog so I understand how to take care of all types of dogs and keep a close eye on them to make sure they aren’t getting into anything or potentially getting hurt.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Aquia Harbour is $50

Dominique went above and beyond with Finley! Dominique graciously fixed an issue caused by a previous sitter, where Finley suffered from heightened anxiety and allergies. Dominique ensured Finley was given his medications appropriately, so he could heal and relax. She also kept me informed of his progress, so I wasn’t worried about him. Thank you Dominique for taking such good care of Finley!!
Rebecca is the best pet and home sitter! She is dependable, reliable, and sincerely cares about our dogs. She sends updates and pictures regularly and our dogs are comfortable and safe while we are away, which makes our time away easier and more enjoyable knowing our dogs are well cared for!
Abby was a life saver for us. We usually use family to help with our pets so using someone not family brought me a level of anxiety i wasn’t ready for. First impression of Abby was professional and prompt. The animals Immediately loved her and she asked all the right questions to ease this fur mom’s anxiety. Having her able to stay at our home was added peace of mind. We came home to happy pets and a clean home. I’m so thankful to have found Abby.
Wendy is wonderful and very responsible, kind and when you meet her you can tell she loves dogs and cats, I’m so happy to find her, my Sadie she was so happy, she always kept me posted with pictures and videos, that was so nice of her and gave me tranquility in my vacations, I’m highly recommend her, and every time I travel I am definitely live Sadie with her.🥰🙏🏼
I couldn’t be more satisfied with the care my dog received. From the start, communication was clear and reliable, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Steven followed all instructions, kept my home neat, and most importantly, treated my dog with genuine care and attention. 10/10!

FAQs for House Sitting - Aquia Harbour
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aquia Harbour on Rover is $42.8 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 3,463 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aquia Harbour. 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 Aquia Harbour 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 Aquia Harbour 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 Aquia Harbour 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.
