“Abby did a great job with our Yorkie. This is our second time having Abby babysit our fur baby. She also leaves your house in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend Abby.”
“Stella did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and we highly recommend you book with her! We recently went out of town and booked Stella to watch our dogs while we were away. She went above and beyond! She was able to handle our two huge dogs perfectly fine with no problem at all. She sent us picture updates each day while we were away, and even followed all of our very detailed instructions we left for our dogs. If you need someone who will do a great job, we highly recommend you book with Stella!”
About: I had two rambunctious but precious dogs growing up, so I'm not put off by a tough exterior. I know a mean bark does not equal a mean soul. I've dog, cat, and house sat for friends and teachers in the past, and most recently I've been volunteering at Addie Catz Sanctuary, so I'm well accustomed to cleaning messes, navigating reactive animals, and loving on pets. I'm more than happy to answer any questions :) I have obligations from 10am-12pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, but otherwise I'm completely available until college classes start on August 19th, when my hours will be cut back every weekday morning (busy from 9am-12pm). I don't mind early morning walks and feeding. I'll be asking a lot of questions to ensure my care is tailored to your pet's needs, and to build your trust in my capabilities. I'm more than happy to learn the kennels, feeding systems, and "flow" of animal care in your own home to avoid the unnecessary stress and change for pets that comes with boarding.
“Trinity was reliable, took good care of our energetic puppy, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated her help and would be happy to recommend her to others looking for someone dependable to care for their pets.”
“We are so happy to have found Elizabeth as someone we can trust with our pups! We're anxious about leaving them and she made us feel comfortable with frequent pictures and contact. Our dogs were happy and the house in great shape when we got home. Will definitely work with her again!”
“Yet again we used Milena to watch our dog in our home and she was amazing. He is very anxious and territorial and she is so patient and understanding with him. She’s like the only person he lets into our house. I so appreciate Milena and love that we can use her to watch Bodie and trust everything will go smoothly!!”
“Kelly was awesome! This was our first time trying a house sitter while we were gone and she made us feel at ease. Our dogs are on the nervous side and then seemed to warm up to her, which made us feel confident leaving them in her care. She was also really flexible, especially when our flight got delayed and we asked if she could stay a little longer she didn't hesitate to help us out and stay. Will definitely use Kelly again!”
About: I have grown up around dogs, my entire life, and have had responsibilities to take care of them since I was a child. Neighbors and roommates have trusted me with their overnight care for 15 years now. I am excited to start dogsitting regularly to gain more experience and continue working while I’m in school. When I am with my family, dogs are a part of the daily routine. I understand the importance of incorporating their needs with my schedule, because they are a member of the house. When I am home with my parents, dogs are a part of the family routine. When I am watching my roommate’s dog, she stays with me most of the day when I am home and follows my routine.
About: Hi! I’m a Marine Biology student who loves animals and enjoys caring for pets. I have experience caring for my grandparents’ cats, working with cats at an SPCA, and looking after dogs for family and friends. I know every pet has their own routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, or just spending time with them, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. If I’m house sitting, I’ll also take great care of your home. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m currently a full time college student with a flexible schedule trying to fill some extra time up. I’m available fully on weekends and most weekdays after 12 pm. I prioritize a secure and happy environment for your pet, making sure all safety requirements are met. Communication is also super important for me and I provide picture/video updates throughout the visit.
About: I have been helping family and friends take care of their pets for many years. I have dog sit puppies from age 8 weeks to older dogs who require a bit more care! I would love to help your family and take care of your sweet fur babies! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your sweet pets! My work hours are 2-6 so my morning and evening will be dedicated to your pets! As I will be providing in home care, I can easily do anything needed of me! I am very tentative with my surroundings and will make sure you pet is in a safe environment always!
“Kelsey was incredible! Followed up with pictures and constant communication. Winston was so incredibly happy! She also left our home spotless! Would absolutely recommend working with her again! Winston felt so at home!”
“Jenna was great with my Rue girl. She even gave her a bath and trimmed her grinch toes😊 The house was neat and tidy and pets& plants were happy, fed and watered. Will definitely hire Jenna the next time I need to be away for a few nights.”
“My pups have had the absolute pleasure of having Emily sit for them a few times now and they just love her! She is so good with communication and always puts your pets needs first. Can’t say enough good things :)”
“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”
“Ross took excellent care of all my babies! I felt so safe with him in charge of them. He took them on walks and even won over the heart of shy little Izzy! Maybe senior dog loved him too. I’d recommend him to anyone and will certainly use him again!”
“Cailin was the perfect sitter for our puppy, Wrinkles. She sent numerous photo updates throughout the day & was a great communicator. She treated Wrinkles as though she was her own. We will continue to use Cailin & would recommend her to any other pet parent!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belville
Michele was absolutely wonderful with our dog while we were out of town. She is reliable, communicative, and shows so much empathy and compassion for animals. Prior to pet sitting, Michele came over to meet our dog and get to know her behaviors and comforts, and to make sure she was familiar to her leading up to the time we would be gone. While we were away we received frequent and detailed updates and pictures, and you could hear the pure joy in her messages. Michele makes it her mission to make sure both the animal and the owners have maximum peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and would certainly book her again! If you’re looking for someone to give your pet the royal treatment, she’s your gal!
We could not have been more pleased with Cate. Her communication was exceptional and she took great care of our sweet dog. We loved getting pictures of.Cookie almost daily and appreciated that she asked questions and took good care of our baby. When we got home, it was evident that our dog was emotionally happy and had had a good time with her. We would highly recommend.Cate for long-term stays!
Grace was an excellent sitter for our dogs and cat. She came to the meet and greet with good questions about their care and sent me frequent updates, including photos and videos. Grace also watered my garden every morning so my plants looked great when we returned. I will definitely be using her services again!
Mila was awesome with our elderly dog Hudson she stayed with him for 5 days at our house. , very friendly and good with Hudson . Mila followed all instructions feeding walking and going out back. She even sent photos of him which made me feel so much better . The house was left clean. And Hudson was happy to stay home instead of a kennel! We will definitely use Mila’s services again !!
Stephen did an AMAZING job caring for our pets over Thanksgiving break. He held down the fort at home and loved on our pets . We came home to happy, exhausted from fetch and content pets. What more can we ask for! Stephen updated us enough to ease our minds but also not interupt our trip. Highly recommend and will book again in the future.
Kelly came out to meet Mia a few times before the trip to make Mia more comfortable with her. Once we went on our trip, Mia was very comfortable with Kelly and it showed in the pics Kelly sent us, as well as the updates. We got great pics and updates from Kelly daily, which is always wonderful when you are away from your sweet girl. Mia was definitely well cared for in our absence, and we'd use Kelly again.
Abigail was amazing taking care of our sweet Pepper and our home. If she is willing, we would love to have her as our go to sitter when we are out of town. She left our home in the same if not better condition than when we left and our pup was well cared for and loved! Thank you Abigail!

FAQs for House Sitting - Belville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Belville on Rover is $49.95 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 773 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Belville. 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 Belville 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 Belville 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 Belville 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.

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.
