Laina was an excellent caretaker for Cooper. Cooper has lots of anxiety and needs lots of patience which Laina was able to provide. She had great communication the whole time and made me feel comfortable Cooper was cared for. As difficult as Cooper can be to handle she was able to do it. I would happily recommend Laina to anyone who wants their dog cared for properly for their specific needs. She even got Cooper to feel comfortable enough to lick her hand which is not like him with new people. Great communication, great care, ten out of ten experience, by far the best I could’ve hired. Thank you so much Laina!

David was a wonderful pet and house sitter. He checked in daily and shared photos of our sweet dog Bear while we’re gone for 6 days. He took her for regular walks and to some of her favorite places in the neighborhood. David left the house in perfect condition, and Bear was a happy girl when we returned. I highly recommend David for any pet and house sitting needs!

Megan did an extraordinarily beautiful job kitty sitting with Rosie. She was there for Rosie in all the most important ways, giving her truely undivided attention. She gave Rosie whole assurance that she was completely there for her, taking care and overseeing all her needs as well as being truly a faithful companion and a dear playful friend which she needed. Megan has a special intelligence and truely a deep for working with animals. She brought constancy in the way she followed through with everything she did for Rosie. I would most highly recommend her as a kitty sitter Megan brought an invaluable intelligence to the job. She brought invaluable skills to the job with a deep understanding for Rosie’s needs.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Ines! She watched both of our dogs and took absolutely immaculate care of our home while we were away. Communication was fantastic—we loved getting updates and the personalized daily photos, which gave us total peace of mind. Beyond just standard pet sitting, Ines went above and beyond by helping train our 1-year-old French Bulldog pup during her stay! It is so rare to find a sitter who is not only incredibly responsible with your home, but also possesses the genuine skill and patience to work on puppy training. We came home to very happy, well-behaved pups and a spotless house. We will absolutely be booking Ines again!

Hannah was an excellent sitter and I recommend her very highly. My two dogs got nice walks and their meds were administered properly. They were clearly happy with her company. She also left the house shipshape and remade the bed with fresh sheets. She kept me updated and was very organized. I couldn't have asked for more.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for all kinds of dogs and cats, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable with large breeds, shy or anxious dogs, and managing multiple pets at once. I’ve also worked on basic puppy training like leash walking and simple commands, so I can reinforce good habits during walks or visits. I’m calm, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I work early mornings at a bakery, so I’m available most afternoons and evenings throughout the week. My schedule can vary slightly, but I’m flexible, easy to reach, and can usually confirm timing at least a day in advance! While doing dog walks and drop-ins, I make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, and that all of their needs are met while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention, and I also make sure your home is respected and taken care of during visits. I’m always open to communication, so you can easily get in touch with me while I’m with your pet, and I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you feel reassured and connected the whole time.

Constance stayed with my two Cavaliers and was amazing with my fur babies. They are high maintenance pups. She took them on nature walks outside my small neighborhood to experience new smells and new dogs. They loved it! I received regular updates, pictures, and videos. She spoiled them rotten!! I think they were disappointed when we came home and Constance was gone.

We cannot say enough good things about Hayley’s excellent care of our dog. She clearly has extensive experience with big dogs and our dog liked her instantly. She showed incredible sensitivity to his tendency to be a « Velcro » Doberman. He was obviously happy and comfortable in her care and we had peace of mind in our trip knowing he was in such capable hands. We will contact her first to keep him every time we travel.

I have a really hard time going on any trips/vacations that I can’t bring my dog on, but Alema’s updates and photos put me at ease knowing Scout was being well cared for. We came home to a happy dog and clean apartment. I think I’ll be planning future vacations around Alema’s availability! Lol

FAQs for House Sitting - Bent Creek

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bent Creek on Rover is $54.39 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 674 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bent Creek. 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 Bent Creek 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 Bent Creek 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 Bent Creek 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 Bent Creek. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
