Sydne came over to babysit my pups for a firework holiday because one of them is very nervous, and she did really well with them. I got updates all evening, and she asked questions if she needed. I felt nervous at first, because I had a bad experience with someone last year, but she was a breath of fresh air for me. I'll definitely be contacting her again!

About: I’ve taken in dogs that didn’t have a home to go to and we’re facing being put down. I was housing 5 large dogs at one point, found great homes for all of them. I own two dogs myself at Home. I’m a solo business owner for a small business, I’m able to set my own schedule meaning nothing will get in the way of me providing proper care for customers pets. I house sit cats a handful of times each year, mainly when people go on vacation and need somebody to stop by and feed and clean litter. I own two dogs at home now and care for them everyday.

Victoria was an absolute lifesaver for us while we were visiting Alligagor Point this year! We needed last-minute care for our sweet Angel girl so we could enjoy a fishing charter we had to readjust with weather (on go home day) and Victoria went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly accommodating with our schedule and even came to pick Angel up from the marina, which made things so much easier for us. From the moment they met, it was obvious how much she loves animals. Angel was completely spoiled with attention and care—even after being a little mischievous and deciding to take an unexpected swim in their pool! Victoria is kind, responsible, communicative, and has the sweetest personality. You can tell she genuinely enjoys spending time with the pets she cares for, and they absolutely adore her right back. She’s heading off to college soon, so if you’re looking for an amazing sitter this summer, book her while she’s still local! We would trust her with Angel again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend her highly enough. We hope she is back home from college next summer when we revisit so that Angel can hang out with her again. We only wish we had found her sooner in the week so that Angel could have had a few more play dates while we were in town.

Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have always been the person who wants to love on every critter I meet! I have several sweet fur babies of my own and have cared for all kinds of animals over the years from dogs and cats to horses, birds, lizards, rats, and pretty much anything else you can name. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster 3 medical puppies through LCHS, along with 1 non-medical foster dog. Fostering has given me even more experience with animals who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I am also familiar and comfortable with administering medicine to cats and dogs from pills to injections and creams. I genuinely love animals and really enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and quirks. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I take their care very seriously. When your pets are with me, they’ll be treated just like my own with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they’re into that, of course!). I work a full time job M-F but am able to do lunchtime potty breaks. If you are interested in booking over weekdays it would be best that your fur baby can be alone for 4 hour increments. If your pet is people/pet friendly and you approve I am able to bring dogs to my office space. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like my own and take the responsibility of caring for them very seriously. I’ll follow your instructions and routines closely, and make sure they’re happy, safe, and comfortable. I want you to feel completely at ease while you are gone and pride myself on sending often updates and photos of your fur babies.

I would provide walks and exercise for your pet throughout the day.

Andrew is a very conscientious sitter and we recommend him to anyone. He stayed with our very young toy maltipoo for an evening in our home. Our dog immediately loved him, and ran to the window and cried when he left. From my experience and reading his other reviews, he seems to have a natural way with animals. We will absolutely hire him again in the future.

I will follow and double check all the instructions and I will contact you immediately with any questions or concerns I have regarding your fur babies. I do prefer written instructions so I am able to double check that I am caring proper for your animals.

About: My background as a Pre-Vet student with 400+ hours of volunteer experience in shelters and therapeutic programs helps me daily in this field . I'm calm and confident with all temperaments—skilled in easing anxious pets, entertaining energetic pups, and providing gentle care for animals of all . Animal care is my passion, and I display that dedicated, high-level attention to every pet I sit. As a college student, my schedule includes flexible breaks between classes and labs, making it easy to fit in regular drop ins, walks, and playtime. Evenings and weekends are more likely to be open for extended care and house sitting. When caring for pets in your home, safety and respect are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules while keeping your space clean and secure, ensuring your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away.

About: As an aspiring vet, it is my duty to ensure the health and welfare of any animal in my care. I make sure to carefully observe and notate any abnormalities while pet sitting to make sure any issues are caught early on Currently working part-time as a veterinary assistant, on my journey to come a veterinarian, pet care is my everyday life and has been for the past 5 years. I have easy access to a large dog park, and open fields so plenty of outside time is used. My home is also very spacious, plenty of roaming around space with a fenced deck for sunbathing as well

About: Animals have been a part of my life since I can remember. I have taken that passion and built a plentiful career with a plethora of experience that allows your pet to have a safe and enjoyable experience. I currently own 5 cats but I have grown up with dogs all my life, including a beloved family pet with aggressive tendencies. Animals are not just pets, they are family, and no one understands that more than me. Here is some of my experience: - professional experience taking care of exotic animals especially reptiles and amphibians - worked a year in the veterinary field - Current pet store employee who handled pet nutrition and care I currently work full time, but that does not inhibit my ability to give my full attention to your pets when they are in my care. I have to care for my at home menagerie daily and have no issues juggling multiple duties. I can only board small mammals and reptiles/amphibians. I have room to bring in reptile and small animal cages. I have the ability to separate from my 3 cats if necessary. All 3 of my cats have been raised with Rabbits.

About: I’ve personally kept animals of all sizes and breeds for family members and myself. I currently have a mixed breed dog I rescued and kitten I rescued. I am extremely passionate about animals and I love helping people in any way I can. I am currently working a full time job on weekdays but my weekends are free to walk, stop in, or house sit for your pups or kitties! I am very good at following instructions so I usually take care of pets as closely as the owner would, with specific details on how you take care of them. I am very careful with the animal as well, speaking calmly and interacting sweetly.

FAQs for House Sitting - Arran

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Arran on Rover is $24.42 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 329 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arran. 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 Arran 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 Arran 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 Arran 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.

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

  • 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
