About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. Right now I have a Beagle and a German Shepherd so I’m used to caring for all dogs of different sizes. I’ve dog sat for people in my town and I am able to flex my schedule to meet the specific needs of your dog. I’m currently a college student, student teaching full time. So I am at a school from 8-3 Monday- Friday and off the weekends. I have a big yard at my home, which provides plenty of room for fetch. I have two dogs that are very friendly to new dogs. I can also stay at your home if preferred. I can dog walk, keep a strict feeding schedule, and give frequent potty breaks throughout the day.

About: I understand animals on a deep level and have a knack for getting them into a calm, happy state. Throughout my lifetime, I have cared for dogs, cats, cows, sheep, rabbits, chickens, ducks, geese. Safety is paramount when it comes to our fur babies. I am a very fastidious person and this is amplified when I care for animals. They deserve all the best :) I am currently renovating and have free time between work on my house. I am very flexible and willing to work with your schedule. I have two reliable vehicles- one of which is perfect for safe transport of larger dog if necessary. Safety is my number one priority as a dog mom and cat mom myself. I will take every step possible to ensure the comfort, safety and health of your pet. I care for every living thing with the love, care and attention that life deserves. I will care for any creatures as though they were my own fur babies.

I’m currently a stay-at-home mom of two daughters and a German Shepherd. My daughters are older now so am looking to fill my time rewardingly. I have a fenced in yard to keep your fur baby safe.

About: Hello! Animals have always held a special place in my heart since I'm a little girl - yes, I was the "Mom, can we keep him?" girl at 8 yrs old. Lol. Ive been working as a veterinary technician for the last 11 years, and I consider myself blessed to be able to do what I love every single day ❤️ That being said, if your pet needs any medication, insulin injections, subcutaneous fluids etc, I am able to do so. I am also fear-free certified, and am proud to say that many dogs that were once terrified of the vet, have made great improvement with these low-stress handling techniques over time! I have 2 Chihuahuas, Enzo and Lola. They're my world. My animal-loving fiance and co-owner also helps me run this business and would most likely be doing mid-day visits as he works from home. We offer complimentary (and mandatory) meet and greets prior to finalizing any service as we want you and your pets to feel at ease! We very much look forward to meeting you and your fur-kids!! My fiancé and business co-owner Bill works from home so has flexibility during the day (within reason) and I work part-time. We work as a team to provide exceptional, compassionate gold-standard care to your fur-babies. They receive a lot of 1 on 1 attention and love! We have a large fenced-in yard for safe and supervised play time. All of our boarding pups get an airtag placed on their collars as well for extra safety precaution. Your pets have free reign of our home and are even welcome to sleep with us!

“Karla is a gentle and kind animal whisperer. Our pup was immediately calmed by her energy. From his daily med routine, to even feeding him by hand when he put up a “my humans are traveling fight” she cared for him with grace and love. AND we got daily pics.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 10 years and have experience with all kinds of pets, from large dogs like German Shepherds to small terriers, cats, kittens, and even fish. I’ve cared for energetic, shy, and senior pets, including those with specific diets or unique needs. I’m very adaptable, patient, and genuinely love animals, so I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m a college student, so my schedule is pretty consistent during the week. My busiest days are Tuesdays (8 AM–4 PM) and Wednesdays (10 AM–4 PM). On Mondays and Fridays, I’m only away from 10 AM–2 PM, and Thursdays I’m gone just from 11 AM–12 PM. Outside of classes, I’m very flexible and able to give pets plenty of attention, walks, and care. I also work part-time at a country club, but it’s currently the off-season, so my schedule is mostly focused on school. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have two friendly pets of my own, so I’m very used to maintaining a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and stick to their usual routines. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions and make it a priority to understand each pet’s specific needs, habits, and personality. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, litter box or potty routines, and any special care instructions. If I’m ever unsure about something, I always ask to make sure I’m doing exactly what’s best for your pet. I’m very patient, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I truly care about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Elena was an absolute godsend for our pets!!! She came over a few days before she housesit - and the dogs were nervous at first, but she sat on the floor with them and waited until they were comfortable - and basically, she's the dog whisperer. When she came for the housesit, the dogs recognized her and were excited to see her. She sent pictures and let us know how they were doing the perfect amount, and the pictures she sent were some of my favorites that I have of them now! I didn't worry at all while we were away, and that is 100% thanks to Elena. Her kindness, patience, and flexibility, among a million other amazing qualities, make Elena the only person I would ever want to housesit for us in the future!”

About: I am a freelance content writer and artist picking up odd jobs in mid-life while working on writing my book, caring for my partner, and trying to give back to the world. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my whole life and am the first person that friends, colleagues and acquaintances call when they need pet-sitter. I have my own 5-year-old Great Pyr / Catahoula mix who has endless amounts of energy, a quirky sense of humor and is my very best friend. I also call Sgt. Pepper (a 16 lb, 16-year-old Mini Pin / Poodle mix) my dog because he is such a beloved member of our family, but technically he belongs to my mom and lives with her in Nevada so I make special trips to see them both as often as I can! I’ve helped house train puppies, trained my own dogs, walked both chihuahua-sized dogs and Great Danes, babysat for pit bulls and other rescues with high anxiety who need special care and attention around other people and animals, and have also cared for sick cats and dogs, including cooking special meals for them, giving saline injections to a cat with kidney disease, and administering meds and therapeutic treatments for sick and/or senior cats and dogs. I’ve also had to wash a few dogs down with Tecnu after getting sprayed by skunks (!) and tended to lots of belly aches, bug bites and other mild issues that can befall any kind of pup. I genuinely love spending time with dogs of all kinds and think they are the greatest blessing on earth. I would love to offer care, attention, love, exercise and snuggles for your dog when you need extra help :) I am a freelancer so I work completely on my own schedule. I can make time for walks, check-ins, feedings and more anytime throughout the day and into early evening (preferably before 9pm). I come to your home to care for your pet. I understand that different pets will have different needs so we can talk beforehand and agree on what is best for your pet! I am open to making multiple visits per day for feeding and attention, staying at the house for a certain amount of hours as needed, walking your pet (willing and able to do both long, strenuous walks/hikes or short jaunts around the neighborhood), playing games with them, training exercises and even taking them to a local dog park to run if they enjoy that. I have my own dog at home and she absolutely loves other dogs and getting to play when she has visitors.

“Janice is fantastic. I was in desperate need of a cat sitter for an emergency trip just days away. Janice responded right away and arranged a meet and greet for the next day. She connected with my cat (who is usually a little shy of strangers) right away, and I immediately relaxed knowing he and my home would be in good hands. Janice was very communicative and took care of everything. I came home to a happy boy who had clearly had fun playing while we were away, and I am so grateful to her. I will definitely entrust Janice again for future pet care needs.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Awosting

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Awosting on Rover is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $76 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 554 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Awosting. 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 Awosting 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 Awosting 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Awosting 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 Awosting. On Rover:

  • 98% 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.
