“Marty did such a wonderful job with our pets! She sent daily updates and pictures to assure us that they were doing well, and left our home in perfect condition. She took our dog Monty on nice long walks each day and made sure our cat Maeve was fed accordingly to her diet. We really appreciate the care that Marty took of our pets, and how clean she left our home. We would absolutely book again!”

“Joey is simply fantastic. He really understands dogs and cats. Joey provided photos every day, which we really appreciated. Everybody looked great when we returned home. He clearly took time to groom the dogs. Not only did he take terrific care of our fur babies, but our house as well. He vacuumed, did laundry, and left the kitchen spotless! We can't wait to have Joey pet sit again!”

About: I’m a dedicated dog owner to my Miniature Poodle, Milo, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love dogs need. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming basics, and keeping a consistent routine. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I’m very reliable with schedules and instructions. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a calm environment, I’ll make sure they are well cared for like my own. I am available daily. I feed my dog in the morning and at night. I’ll have to ensure that no dogs fights over foods. I’ll have to put one of the dog in bathroom and another dog can eat in a room until foods are done. They can be switched. I have a yard and I can put them in crate if needed. I’ll make sure everything goes well and safe. I ensure that pets have a safe, clean space to play, rest, and eat. I follow any specific instructions from the pet parent, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise needs. I supervise pets closely, making sure they’re never left in unsafe situations, and I provide plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation.

About: I grew up around animals. I have taken care of my own dogs, cats, rabbits and fish throughout my life. I have also taken care of friends pets when they’ve gone out of town. I am comfortable with large and small dogs, cats, and caged animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your pets. I have a 4yr old who is comfortable around animals and I am available for boarding if your animal is comfortable with men, women, and children. I live on a quiet street in an apartment and look forward to walking with your dog at my home or yours. I am comfortable working with multiple kinds of collars and leashes.

“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and have experience caring for my own pets as well as my family’s pets. I’ve helped with everyday care including feeding, providing fresh water, potty breaks, keeping them comfortable, and of course, giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I genuinely love animals and take pride in creating a safe, happy, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I’m responsible, attentive, patient, and always happy to learn about each pet’s unique personality, routine, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply relaxing by your side, I’m excited to give them the care and attention they deserve! I look forward to continuing to grow my knowledge and experience while making sure every pet feels loved, safe, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I just got a new full time job Monday-Friday 2-11 PM I’ll be working 8 hour evenings. I’ll be happy to work around our schedules. My mom is allergic to most pets so I provide in-home pet care services. When I care for pets in their own home, I follow the specific instructions provided by the pet owners. This includes feeding them, giving them fresh water, taking them for walks, and providing playtime and companionship. I also ensure that their living space is clean and tidy. The goal is to make the pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away.

“Richard cared for our 16 year old cat that has chronic health issues. Our cat takes several medications twice a day and eats a prescription diet. He did a great job, was very responsive, responsible and would contact me if he had a question. We felt like we left our cat and home in good hands. I will hire Richard again in the future when we need someone to look after our cat.”

About: I had a cat for 20 years and cage aninals when i was young. I have owned a dog with anxiety so patience was key. He needed Medication for that and his hips. I own two cats and a hedgehog. My cats come to a whistle, know how to sit and lay down, go to their blanket where ever it is. My older cat is great in the car and the younger cat I am currently training. I cut their nails and bathe them myself. Both are leash trained. I handle my hedgehog daily so that he is well socialized. My cats never bothered the rats or the hedgehog when let out of the cages. They would sleep woth the dog when no one was home. I work 12 hour over night shifts for my regular job. I am looking for day time and, when off night time or overnight opertunities to fit my shifting schedule. I work in Macedon and live in West Henrietta so I am flexible with locations. I am a quiet private person. I have two cats and a hedgehog. I previously owned rats, a dog, leopard gecko, and other caged animals Cages, boxes, bowls and, other cage items are cleaned daily as well as deep cleaning every 4 to 5 days or as needed. I enjoyed taking the dog as well as my cat for a walk! I have patience with animals with anxiety. I walk or handle pets that friends have such as snakes and birds.

About: About Me: Hi there! My name is Lauren, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Whether I’m giving belly rubs, taking energetic walks, or just keeping a nervous pet company, providing a safe, loving environment is my top priority. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. My Experience: * Lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, and various other animals of all sizes and temperaments. * Comfortable with administering oral medications, following strict feeding schedules, and handling high-energy play. * Dedicated to keeping your home tidy, secure, and respected while you're away. What to Expect: * Frequent updates, including adorable photos and videos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. * Customized care tailored to your pet’s routine, favorite games, and comfort needs. * A clean, welcoming space when you return home—because the best vacation ending is coming home to a happy pet and a spotless house and a calm pet! I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family members! My schedule is wonderfully flexible and centered around your pets' needs. Whether I am house sitting full-time or dropping in for visits, your animals will always be my top priority. I plan my day around their feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and I generally avoid being away from the home for extended periods so your pets always feel secure and accompanied. I am currently working full-time in a remote capacity so I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day. Your home and pets' safety are treated with the utmost respect. I always ensure doors and gates are securely locked, monitor outdoor environments closely, and keep toxic foods or hazards completely out of reach. I also treat your home with care—leaving spaces clean, respecting household rules, and making sure you come home to a peaceful, spotless environment.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience providing care for older dogs with specific medical needs, and experience training puppies. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend undivided quality time with your pets. I have found this helps to reduce the separation anxiety that exists when an owner is absent. It’s important that your pet(s) feel as comfortable as possible in your absence. To me, getting to know your pet’s schedule, habits, favorite and least favorite things, allergies or medical conditions, mannerisms, reactivities, etc. can help them feel cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.

FAQs for House Sitting - Avon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 525 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 , 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 .

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.
