“Kelsi did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was away. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages. When I got home, my dog was happy and well cared for, my house was clean, and everything was locked up properly. Kelsi is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her and would absolutely use her again!”
“Stella was great with Rosie!! She sent lots of updates and pictures. She was very responsive and was so awesome with Rosie during the meet and greet! She was able to stay at my house and take care of Rosie which was great for our pup! We would definitely book Stella again!”
“Grace was amazing. She was very accommodating of all mine and Zico’s needs. She was very responsive with question and updates. Zico was happy pup when I came back.”
“Brittany was great to work with! She is very responsive. She worked through a dog that’s slow to be friendly and took great care of the house.”
About: I grew up around dogs and cats, and they always bring me joy. I treat animals like they are my own. While you are away, I want you to feel confident and secure about your pet’s happiness and well-being. I am reliable, and over six years, I have never missed a visit to a client’s home. I also have experience administering medications, especially my family dog Casey’s numerous pills. I would be happy to help out with your pet(s) in the mornings and/or evenings, as I work a full-time job at a local school. I would be glad to keep your fur baby company on visits to your home. I will gladly check your mail, water your plants, or do anything else you need while you’re away.
“Sean was wonderful! He genuinely cares about animals, sent thoughtful updates throughout, and followed every instruction perfectly. I came home to a happy, relaxed pet. Highly recommend, and will absolutely book again!”
“Adel was very kind and attentive with our pets. While pet sitting, he also handled visits from the irrigation team who came to our house. Additionally, he took care of one of my dogs during her first heat. He changed her diaper and remained extremely attentive to her needs. I recommend Adel wholeheartedly—100%!”
“Amy is phenomenal. She took such great care of our pets and our home while we were out of town. One of our dogs has severe anxiety and she handled him like a true pro. Definitely recommend.”
“Brooke was phenomenal! She and our skittish little dog, Bingo, hit it off right away during a "meet & greet". She took great care of Bingo, sending us pictures & updates on a regular basis. we were able to fully enjoy our 10 day trip, knowing our home and fur baby were in such good hands. We will definitely want Brooke back the next time we leave town.”
“Thank you so much Josh for the incredible care you gave my dog! I’m beyond grateful for the extra visits and attention you provided, especially when she was having stomach issues. You truly went above and beyond. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands, and I would definitely book again – thank you for everything!”
“Great & Responsible sitter. Was so lucky to find him after another sitter unexpectedly cancelled. Would only ask that there was more communication & pictures while we were gone but other than that him and his girlfriend did an amazing job.”
“Jaymes was so awesome with my pups. He was very communicative and it felt so great to know that they were being so well taken care of. Perfect! Thanks Jaymes, Penny and Ponyboy were so spoiled! ❤️❤️”
“Nayla was incredible! She took care of our home and all of our many animals with precision and love. We came home to a very happy household and that means the world to us. Nayla was very communicative! Nayla handled our special medical needs dog (blind/diabetic) amazingly. We were able to be away from home without a single worry thanks to Nayla. Not to mention the multiple times our plans changed the week of our trip and Nayla accommodated us/handled every change perfectly. We’d love to have Nayla housesit for us again, and hopefully she feels the same about us!”
About: I have loved animals since I was a young child. I love caring for dogs and also the flexibility to travel, so I do not have a pup of my own. I started dog sitting in high school and college while on breaks from school and it brings me so much joy to care for everyone's pups. I work full-time in a physical therapy clinic, so I am typically able to run home during my lunch break if dogs are in need of a restroom break. I am always excited to spend time with animals in any way possible! Sometimes this looks like stopping at someone's house on the way home from work if they need walked, staying in their home, or their dog(s) staying with me. I do not have any pets of my own, so if your dog does not get along well with other dogs they will be comfortable in my home. I have a roommate who also loves dogs but does not have any pets. If your dog(s) love others, we can enjoy walks and dog parks and play dates with others! I am very careful when entering and residing in others homes, and try to make sure the environment is the same or cleaner than I left it.
“Oliver watched our frenchie in our home during a long weekend. He was extremely communicative about how our pup was doing, sent photos, and followed our care instructions perfectly! Our dog loved hanging out with him. I highly recommend Oliver for any and all pet-sitting needs! We will be using him as our regular sitter from here on out :) thank you Oliver!!”
“Em was very professional and attentive to our dogs. Updated us on the day-to-day schedule. We highly recommend them for pet sitting. We will use their services again in the future.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve dedicated both my education and experience to caring for them. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Care and Behavior and I’m currently continuing my education in veterinary medicine. I also have hands on experience working with animals in professional boarding and daycare settings, along with several years of animal shelter volunteering. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different breeds, ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My education in animal behavior has taught me the importance of understanding each pet as an individual, recognizing their body language, respecting their boundaries, and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or would rather curl up and relax, I’ll adjust their care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, and at home while their family is away. 🐾💕 I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with the attention and care they need. For boarding, I'm able to plan my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and your pet's normal routine. I'm also available throughout the week and on weekends. I live in a pet friendly apartment with an enclosed patio where pets can safely get some fresh air and relax. My community also has an on site fenced dog playground for supervised play and exercise, and I’m conveniently located near Shelby Farms trails and park for walks and outdoor time. Inside my home, pets are welcome to get comfortable and make themselves at home. I always follow each pet parent’s routine, feeding instructions, and safety preferences, and pets can be crated if requested. I have a friendly cat of my own who will remain comfortably in a separate room during boarding stays, giving your pet their own space to relax and settle in. 🐾
“Montserrat did a tremendous job with Luna who is a 6-month-old puppy. She provided routine daily updates with pictures and videos to keep me up to date. I would highly recommend using her and plan on using her in the future.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Berclair is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Berclair
Josh was amazing on our first housesit. I always have a lot of details that I share and he was very attentive as we ran through everything. Josh was very communicative, arrived right on time despite a thunderstorm, and walked Styles right on his schedule. Josh was very considerate of our home, leaving everything in order. We're looking forward to his next, slightly longer stay! Highly recommend Josh to watch after your babies!!
Aaron was great and very attentive. Send pictures of each animal and send an update on each time which one is fed and taken out. Aaron was a great house Sitter and Dog Sitter and I also have cats and a rabbit and all of them was well taken care of five star rating.🙂💜👍🏾
Rachel was so kind and so good with my three dogs! She was also very present and attentive when staying at my house which made me feel so comfortable being away from my babies. She kept me updated with pictures and was communicative while I was away which is something that I really appreciate when using a dog sitter. Highly recommend!
Jeanne really saved us! I accidentally messed up on the dates for our trip and Jeanne didn't hesitate to stay an extra day with our babies. She is so wonderful with them and I knew they were well taken care of while we were gone. I would definitely use her again and recommend to others!
Faith took great care of our dog, cat, and our home while we were away on a short trip. I was nervous about leaving them but it was such peace of mind to have her available to spend the night at our home where our pets are most comfortable. She checked in here and there which was very reassuring!
This was our second time working with Bailey. There was an unexpected hiccup the night before the trip, but Bailey quickly rectified it. They took great care of Ellis and she was a happy pup when we returned. The house was in great order and they ran a load of laundry.
Kara sat for our dogs in our home for 12 days and was absolutely the best. We have an enormous 5 month old puppy who is a wrecking ball and a very fragile 13 year old senior with two very different sets of needs. She was so considerate of both of their needs, exercise levels, structure etc and we came home and it was like we had never left. Our house was in better shape than we left it, the dogs were happy and calm, and the peace of mind Kara gave us while we were away was priceless. We cannot recommend her enough!
Aziz was great!!! He was attentive, kind and compassionate and gave Mookie a lot of TLC. He kept in constant contact, which I appreciated. Aziz also left my house clean which is always nice when you’ve been away for a week. Aziz is the first person that Mookie sat next to on the first day. That’s a win in itself because I knew he felt safe. Thanks so much Aziz. I will definitely book him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Berclair on Rover is $44.4 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 472 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Berclair. 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 Berclair 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 Berclair 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 Berclair 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.
