“Nafisa is such a wonderful sitter for our finicky pup! She is communicative, caring, and detail oriented. We love Nafisa and will always ask her to watch our guy.”
“Jessie was amazing and took such good care of our did while we were away! She was very responsive in the booking process and sent us daily photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated.”
“Christina is truly the sweetest and most caring pet sitter! She has such a genuine love for animals and it really shines through from the moment we met and throughout the entire pet sitting stay. She kept us informed with lots of cute pictures and videos throughout the weekend, and was really on top of the specific needs for our senior dog.”
“Alyssa went above and beyond! Alyssa was great and was in contact when our one dog had an upset tummy. Took such great care of the boys and had the house looking better than when we left it. Will definitely book with Alyssa again!”
“After a late cancellation by our usual dog sitter for reasons beyond her control my son suggested Rover. In doing a search I found Nina who was close to us and thankfully available. We have a 4 year old German shepherd who is somewhat protective of my wife and I as well as our home; we also have a 1 year old Golden Retriever who is exceptionally shy. During the meet and greet it took all of 2 minutes for our shepherd to walk around the house licking Nina’s hand, Nina is a natural with dogs. It took a little longer for our shy little golden girl to warm up to her but it came through time and positive attention. Nina provided us with regular updates and excellent care for our beloved pups, we couldn’t ask for any more! On our return home the house was immaculate, the dogs were happy and well cared for, Nina was a star and set the bar so high that in the future we’ll be making our vacation plans around Nina’s availability! Rover provided us with a great communication platform and peace of mind for our dog’s care in our absence. Do we recommend Rover: Yes, do we recommend Nina: absolutely!!”
“Candace was amazing! I was worried leaving my 7 wk old puppy but they did wonderfully! Candace kept me posted with pics and made sure he was well taken care of! Definitely will be using again and recommend!”
“Katy house sat our two rescue dogs over a long weekend and she was incredible! She was very detail oriented, followed all instructions and communicated very effectively while we were away, which included great pup pics! Most importantly she took the time to understand one of our dogs specific needs, he was abused in a previous life and can be reactive to new people and she made sure to gain his trust. She is very confident with dogs (both large and small since we have both) and even cleaned our house so that we came home to a tidier space than we left. She went above and beyond, I highly recommend her!!”
“Very competent and professional. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs and our house in her hands. Our pups were very happy and even whined a bit after her. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again.”
About: I have always had pets (i.e., cats, dogs) growing up, training them on my own, helping out close friends and family members, and have always enjoyed my time spent with the furry animals. I have been around all types, ages, and breeds, making my experience vast! I currently have the ability to work from home full time during the week or go into the office, but I gravitate towards working from home most of the time. I have a good amount of flexibility which allows me to conduct drop ins for walks during the day or overnight stays. I have always felt a strong connection to animals/pets and so it comes as second nature understanding what the pet needs at the time. I can follow instructions if there are any specifics to adhere to but will also tend to your pet as if it was my own and care for it like my own.
About: I’ve taken care of my aunts dogs and have dog sat many times so I know what to expect. I also hang out with my boyfriend’s dogs. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to fit pet sitting in my schedule. I will also be able to do it at any time of day. I have a very big backyard, a lot of room, and a friendly cat to keep your cat company. I will also not make your animal feel like they are alone.
“Delen is amazing!! The care she gave our dogs was wonderful and I felt so confident about her ability to fully meet their needs. In addition, Delen takes the time to check in throughout the day, sending updates, pictures, and videos. She is such a sweet and loving person, and is a wonderfully effective communicator. We are overjoyed that we found someone we fully trust to care for our dogs and stay in our home. Thank you so much, Delen!!”

“Forest is a great sitter for our pets. We were fostering a dog last minute and Forest was able to take that on unexpectedly. He was super patient with a dog that was totally new to us and pretty fearful. He sends lots of updates and pictures. We appreciated his help tons!”

I have beautiful parks near by with plenty of room to play!
“Dejah stayed at my house for a couple days with my ever so shy cat, Theo. With other sitters in the past he usually hides under the bed the majority of the time. Dejah is the animal whisperer!! He was out and about, getting his zoomies on, and napping in the bed during the day. I received pics regularly. She truly is wonderful and took very good care of him and my home. Highly recommend her!!!”

Nafisa was wonderful with Buttercup! From the beginning, I felt very comfortable leaving both Buttercup and my home in her care. She communicated really well while I was away, and I came home to a house in great shape and a happy, well-cared-for Buttercup. That gave me such peace of mind while I was traveling. I would absolutely use Nafisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.
We have never used a dog sitting service before and we're skeptical at first. As soon as we met Shannon we had a great feeling an d peace of mind. Our Max( standard poodle) gravitated to her instantly. She was caring and very attentive to his needs. She asked a lot of questions about him. She sent pics all day of his progress. Thank you Shannon for loving our Max!
Allyson was wonderful to work with. She took very good care of all of my fur babies. She was prompt in responding, sent us pictures daily, was flexible in her schedule to be able to stick to my pups routine, & kept the house. All of our babies were happy and calm when we returned. So happy with the results & will definitely be using her again! Thank you Allyson!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Blasdell is $58 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $74 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Blasdell 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 Blasdell 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 Blasdell 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work 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.
