“Jen was absolutely fantastic! We did a house sitting and she was extremely conscientious and communicative. Dusty is a high energy, rascal of a dog and she was so great with him. I can't recommend her enough!”

“Sara was fabulous! Our dog was snuggled and cared for by Sara so beautifully. She communicated with us on the daily, and made sure our dog got good exercise and outdoor time. She also house sat and took amazing care of our house. Would highly recommend her and rebook her in the future!”
“Erin and her sister Caitlin did an Amazing job taking care of my two sweet dogs over a crazy busy holiday weekend. On a night with both fireworks and thunderstorms, I worried about leaving the pups, but Caitlin kept them calm and happy and comforted for several hours. The dogs loved her and so did my family. I'd hire this pet sitting team again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend.”

“Lakeisha was everything and more that you could ask for in a dogsitter. She was attentive, caring, and truly showed a passion for watching animals. I will definitely use her again and encourage everyone to do the same.”

“Isabelle took excellent care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She communicated often throughout her stay and made sure our little guy was well taken care of. We'll definitely be requesting her services again!”

About: I am a dedicated animal lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, and ferrets. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, built around consistent feeding times, walks, and play sessions. I set aside dedicated time each day and week to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. This routine helps pets feel secure while allowing me to provide reliable, high-quality care. I provide attentive, compassionate care by following each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, and playtime. In a client’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pet feels safe, comfortable, and stress-free in a familiar environment. I also monitor pets closely for any changes in behavior or health and provide regular updates to give owners peace of mind.
“Tara was amazing! She took care of our 3 dogs (all different sizes and breed) with much care and attention. She is an animal lover and you can tell. We highly recommend her and will be using again.”

“Marcella is a fantastic dog sitter. She is punctual and dependable, and also affectionate and playful with my very active dogs. She also came up with ideas to keep my dogs busy and entertained. She doubled up as a pet and house sitter, and we felt we left everything in very competent hands. We highly recommend her!”

“Hailey did a great job pet sitting for our cat when she was in a cone and having some health issues. She sent photos and updates so I could relax knowing my baby was well taken care of. She was also on time and very responsible.”

“Stephanie was great and super communicative- She provided regular updates and photos which gave me peace of mind while I was away and I can tell she genuinely loves animals! I highly recommend!”

“Jeffrey is fantastic! Very flexible and easy to communicate with, we really appreciated how willing he was to come over and meet our dogs twice before our trip. He was also more than willing to return to our house to let them outside for a quick break when we asked. Can’t recommend Jeffrey enough!”


About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I could walk, so caring for animals has always felt second nature. I also volunteer as a dog walker, socializer, and trainer at Danbury Animal Welfare Society, where I work with dogs of different temperaments, energy levels, and needs. My style is calm, patient, and attentive, whether your dog needs a real exercise walk, your cat needs a quiet check-in, or your older pet just needs someone gentle and consistent. I know trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal, so I take reliability seriously. I’ll show up when I say I will, pay attention to your pet’s routine, and send clear updates so you know they’re safe, happy, and cared for. I currently work full time, but my evenings and weekends are often free. I’m a good fit for weekend walks, evening check-ins, drop-in visits, and occasional pet care when your regular routine needs extra support. Because I value reliability, I only accept bookings I know I can show up for fully and on time. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, routines, and boundaries, and I never force interactions with people, dogs, or unfamiliar situations. For walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, avoid unsafe areas, and adjust the pace to the dog’s age, energy, and temperament. I’m comfortable with shy, anxious, energetic, and older pets, and I believe patience and consistency go a long way. For drop-ins, I’ll respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, check food, water, litter, doors, and gates, and send clear updates so you know how your pet is doing.
“Sarah - was amazing! Our two dogs were so happy with her and were so happy when we got home. In addition, she was unexpectedly snowed in with them and took wonderful care of them and the house. We will be using her again and if anyone needs a personal recommendation, we are more than happy to endorse Sarah!”

About: I have 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m attentive, reliable, and focused on making each dog feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, or calm companionship, I adjust to your dog’s needs. I’m also comfortable with feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and providing updates with photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. My middle name is Cotter and what I normally go by. Sorry for any confusion! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m reliable, have my own transportation, and am familiar with many local parks and neighborhoods throughout Fairfield County and Westchester. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or spending time with your pet at home, I’m happy to accommodate your needs and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any specific needs so they feel secure and at ease. Whether in your home or out on a walk, I’m attentive, responsible, and treat every pet like my own.
“Jason was great with our animals. He sent some photos and kept in touch letting us know how everything was going and how sweet our pets were for him. We hope to be able to book him again in the future.”

“Kayla came to babysit our new puppy and our two other dogs! We felt very safe having her in our home to hang with them all day while we had to be away at an appointment. It made us feel so much better knowing she was there to give then love and attention. Thanks so much!”

Jennifer was an exceptional pet sitter. Our 13 yr old dog had some health issues while we were away and Jennifer went above and beyond to look after her. I am very happy with the amazing care she provided for our pet. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She was incredible.

Isabelle is responsive, professional, friendly, and my dogs love her!! She responded quickly to my initial inquiry, was accommodating in our pre-meet, asked all the right questions to understand our preferences, and then communicated updates regularly during her visits. She exemplifies professionalism but with a warmth that makes us very comfortable entrusting her with our beloved furr babies. I cannot recommend her enough!!

Jordan has been great with our Hallie! She’s cared for her a couple of times now, and each time we’ve felt completely at ease. She's dependable, communicative, and mindful of Hallie's needs - while also being respectful of our home. It's such a comfort to know that Hallie is in such capable and caring hands!

So was so amazing and patient with our two little rascals. One of our dogs is in the middle.of a neurological evaluation and Sophie was so good with him, so sweet and understanding. She gave us daily updates with lots of pictures and we came home to two very happy and well taken care of little boys as well as a spotless house. Would 100% recommend and book again!!

Jolene is a "pro" dogsitter. She is very organized, lots of fun, observant, thorough, great @ tummy rubs and pets, and loves dogs. She asked for information before her stay and followed the directions that we offered before we left on our trip. We received daily photos and reports from her about Luna. Luna had a wonderful time with Jolene. We wholeheartedly recommend her for your pets!

FAQs for House Sitting - Bethel
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bethel on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,176 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bethel. 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 Bethel 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 Bethel 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 Bethel 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.
