“Allison was great with my 2 pugs. She went above and beyond what I expected. My go loved her. She watered plants, filled Hummingbird feeders and dispensed medicine to one of the girls. She left my house clean and was a joy to work with”
“Another AMAZING stay! Patrick is so on top of everything and so so good caring for my cats, this was a work trip so i was able to focus on work and know my cats were well taken care of which truly was the best feeling of all time!”
“Lori has been so easy to work with. She's been great with communication. Texted me every day and sent pictures of our dog. Cleaned up our dog's accidents. She stayed at our house and we returned to it so neat. She was punctual with coming for her meet-and-greet. Great experience. We would choose her again.”
“Ben has tons of reviews for a reason! He keeps a full Rover schedule and meats his commitments like a pro. We had to make house sitting arrangements with only 2 weeks notice and he was able to fit house sitting with our 2 yr old German Shepard into his schedule with that short notice. Our dog was well taken care of and our small home was left in exactly the same shape as when we left for the weekend. Thanks again!”
“Whitney was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I were in a bind after our Divine blessing came into our lives, who we named Belle. We rescued her from a busy street dodging traffic. We had a planned trip shortly after finding her, but she was not yet eligible for boarding. To say that we were FORTUNATE to find a caring, compassionate and responsible housesitter for Belle (at the last minute, no less) in Whitney would be an understatement! We can't thank her enough, but we'll try. THANK YOU, Whitney!”

I am available to work with your schedule anytime offered up. I have a fenced yard with lots of room to run around also with treats,toys,and a cage with a little dog bed if it’s needed.
“Jordan was amazing! She took the best care of our pets that we could have asked for and went above and beyond in making them feel safe and comfortable. She was flexible when our arrival home was delayed overnight. Our pets would love to see her again.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have taken care of all different kinds of dogs. My grandfather trained police dogs so I am used to taking care of all style of dogs. I’m currently on working on the side so I have a very free schedule to offer services at all times. I’m home most of the day and I can choose my own schedule to work around providing pet care. My wife and I live in a gated community that is very dog friendly. There is a dog park in the middle of the complex. We have a very friendly corgi for your fur babies to play with. We allow dogs on the furniture and to sleep wherever they want to.
“Absolutely love love love Danielle! She has house sit for me multiple times and it’s always great! My dog gets alllll the loves and she sends a ton of pics. I never worry when Danielle is at my house. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and everyone I know.”
“Lo took great care of our dogs and the house. I will be using her again and highly recommend. My dogs take a minute to let new people in their circle and she did great with them. They loved her!”

“Cameron was very attentive to our 10 year old golden retriever! He was also very accommodating with us since we had to change plans last minute. Definitely will book him again in the future!!”
“I always get nervous leaving my pets when I go out of town, but I felt so much better with Clarissa at my house! She did a great job giving me lots of updates and making sure they had lots of company while I was gone. I’d definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog and recently became a dog owner myself, and I quickly realized just how much joy, comfort, and companionship they bring into our lives. I’m completely obsessed with my own pup and know firsthand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable when you can’t be there. There was a time when I needed someone to help care for my pup, and I remember how much that support meant to me. Now, I’d love to be that person for other pet parents. Whether your dog needs a walk, some extra attention, or simply a little companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same patience, care, and affection I’d want for my own. I’m excited to get to know each pup’s unique personality and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾 With a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give your pup the walks, attention, and love they deserve! 🐾 I know how much peace of mind it brings to have someone you trust care for your dog, and I’d love to be that person for you and your pup. My pup is crate-trained and has his own comfortable space for when I’m not home, but otherwise he’s free to roam around the house as he pleases. We also have a backyard where he can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and explore. I want any dog staying with us to feel comfortable, relaxed, and right at home.
“Karleigh is an excellent pet sitter. She followed our instructions very well for our needy dog, and always let him out in a timely manner. She was always prompt with responses to our texts. Really gave us peace of mind. We will without a doubt use Karleigh again in the future!”
“Brittany dog sat in our home for 5 nights and was amazing! Very responsive, sent pics of our pups, and took care of the house very well. She is very sweet and our dogs loved her. I would recommend her to others and hire her again!”

Zach sat for our two dogs for two nights in October. One of our dogs is very fearful of everyone except my husband and I, and Zach visited three times before we actually left town to make sure the dogs knew him and were comfortable with him. He brought lots of treats to gain their trust and went walking in the neighborhood with us. Zach is great with dogs and has lots of experience working with dogs and connecting with them. On his third visit Zach did a "test run" and came in to feed the dogs dinner while we went out for a couple of hours. Zach sent us many pictures and videos while we were gone and we really appreciated that! I will not hesitate to use Zach as a dog sitter in the future! Thank you Zach!
Molly was absolutely fantastic dog/housesitting while we were away on vacation. She watched our 2 dogs, 1 big, 1 little. Our big dog takes a while to warm up to people and Molly had no issues with that. She kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout the stay. We were very impressed and appreciative of the great condition the house was left in. She will definitely be our go-to next time we need a dogsitter.
Robin was amazing! She took such great care of our two dogs and our home while we were away. She kept us updated on everything they did and followed their schedule perfectly. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Robin and will definitely use her again!
Alexis went above and beyond with Alan! Even though we did a meet and greet, he decided to be a cranky senior and had a little stranger danger when she first got to our house after we left. She sent us a message right away and handled the situation like a pro! Alan settled quickly and they were best friends for the rest of the time she stayed at our house. She sent pictures the whole time and was great at communicating with us. It was great knowing he was in such caring hands.
As always Lindsay is great with our dog. She has lots of patience & love for animals. She watched our daughter's dog along with Beau for a family Christmas outing. Pippa is very emotional but they did excellently together. Our Beau is getting on in years so we aren't traveling as he is in his senior years we don't like to leave him! I am glad Beau got to see Lindsay again for Christmas !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Avon is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $70 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 1,388 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Avon. 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 Avon 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 Avon 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 Avon 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 Avon. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
