“Sarah’s great! She followed instructions and also anticipated our needs. She provided timely updates and gave us all the peace of mind we needed while we were away from our dog. We will definitely be using her again and anyone who hires her is lucky to have them looking after their pets.”
“Kendra did a wonderful job making friends with our dog, who we have never left at home. She worked steadily to build his trust, and gave him lots of time to accept her putting him on a slip lead a going for a walk. We really look forward to having Kendra dog-sit for us again! Cheers!”
“Dana is amazing!! He is incredibly kind and reliable. He always gives very prompt updates on walks. I was very anxious about leaving my dog for the first time but he really took such good care of her that I could actually relax during my vacation. Trust that your fur baby will be in good hands with Dana :) I highly recommend him 10/10”
“I've been using Marian for over 5 years for housesitting & drop ins (2 different dogs over the years). She's always responsible, consistent, and has always taken great care of my dogs. She's VERY good with working around my dogs' individual quirks, which I greatly appreciate. I truly don't have to worry if she's watching my dog!”
“Isaiah took care of our chill pit mix, Stella, and our house this past weekend while we were away. He kept us informed about how she was doing and was friendly and respectful. We would definitely have him help with Stella again.”
“Maria did a great job caring for Blu and Leo during her stay. She was attentive, communicative, and patient, especially with Blu’s crate training. I appreciated how smoothly the evening went and how she kept me updated throughout the night. I’d happily have her sit for my pets again!”
“Hadiya did an amazing job staying with our Walter while we were on vacation! She comforted him during the fireworks and put on dog music when she wasn’t around. She provided many updates and photos. Highly recommend!”
“I had a last minute cancellation for pet sitting and was able to find Peter whom did a wonderful job at taking care of my dog. He took my dog on nice walking trails and gave me suggestions on caretaking him. Peter is really down to earth and I believe my dog really trusted and enjoyed his company. I am very grateful to Peter and hope he has success in pet sitting in the future!”
“Hailey is the best! We are always reluctant having new dog sitters; however, she not only made us feel comfortable, but our dog as well! She was very responsive and we loved the pictures she sent us while we were gone. I highly recommend Hailey!”
“Brandon is receptive and communicative. He cares about my animals and was especially helpful when my dog began not feeling well and had some accidents. If he had a question to make sure he was giving my animals thr best care possible, he wasn't afraid to ask. He had his hands full with my animals but did very well and I know they were happy while I was away. Definitely will use again.”
“Alexys took such good care of our cats and dog! She's caring, pays attention to the details, and left our house in perfect condition. We're definitely booking her right now for our next trip.”
“We’ve used Bill several times to watch our pup, Lincoln and he’s been fabulous every time. He communicates, sends cute photo updates and takes care of the house for us when we’re gone. Would use him again and recommend him to anyone that would like a reliable pet sitter for their pets! Thank you, Bill!”
“Allie was an exceptional dog sitter and took wonderful care of my diabetic dog while house sitting. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly comfortable managing medications and sticking to a strict schedule. I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog and my home were in great hands. I would absolutely trust Allie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring sitter, especially for pets with special medical needs.”
“Nikki is great! She's a good communicator, sending cute photos and updates everyday. The best thing is that, when I arrive home after a multi-day trip, my pup is happy and relaxed and the house is exactly as I left it. I strongly recommend her.”
“Nico's watched our energetic boxers a couple of times before but this time he stayed at our home for 3 weeks. Dogs thought they were on vacation too as they got a lot more exercise and attention than normal life. Very thankful for his attention to the dogs and helpful with small things around the house while we were gone. Recommend him to others for single day/walks or longer term sitting.”
“Ricky and Joe are the best - super responsive, reliable, and my dogs absolutely love them. They stayed at our house and I swear it was cleaner when I got home than when I left it. This was the second time we’ve used them and we will absolutely be booking them again!”
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life and starting in grade school, I walked dogs and pet sit for families in the neighborhood. Just a lover of all animals 🤗🐾 I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule when it comes to a walk around the neighborhood or a check in with your pet. When checking in on your pets at home, I will always be cautious of keeping gates and doors closed and keeping them on their leash when gearing up for a walk ☺️

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Baederwood
Alex was wonderful house sitting for us and taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She was very communicative, sent frequent pics and updates, and left our house in great shape. The pets loved her, and we felt very comfortable leaving them with her. We will definitely book Alex again :)
This was this was my first time using Rover. My dog unexpectedly went into heat and we had to make alternate plans for her care. Christian responded quickly and efficiently. We felt fully confident in leaving our dog with him, even though she was requiring additional care and Grooming due to her heat. I would absolute him again!
We loved having Cadence stay with our dog, Levi. We just got back from our 5 day trip to a clean house and a happy dog. She updated us daily on all of the things we asked her to, and she followed his typical schedule, which made us feel comfortable leaving him with her. We’ll definitely be asking her back next time we’re out of town. Thank you, Cadence!
I trust Ally to take care of my baby because she reads his behavior and needs the same way I do. For example, when it’s super hot out she keeps his walks short and utilizes the pool and indoor activities to make sure my dog gets the exercise he needs! She’s naturally an amazing dog sitter!
Sabrina house-sat and took care of my two nutty little cats for 7 days and did a wonderful job. One of my cats needs a lot of pills and a bandage change and Sabrina was totally able to handle that. She came by before my trip to familiarize herself with the kitties and make sure she understood all the instructions, which I thought was really caring and responsible of her. I would be happy to work with Sabrina again and would highly recommend her!!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Baederwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Baederwood on Rover is $41.73 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,571 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Baederwood. 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 Baederwood 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 Baederwood 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 Baederwood 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 Baederwood. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
