“Monica was great! Zephyr is a 2.5 year old rescue that I have had for a year. In that time she has become a "one man dog" and leaving her for the first time I had concerns about her allowing a stranger to come into the house when I wasn't there. Monica's love for animals showed through and Zephyr fell in love with her almost immediately! Communication was outstanding and the house and Zephyr were in tip-top shape upon my return. Monica will definitely be "go to " sitter in the future. I highly recommend her!”
“When we got home my two girls were very happy and my house was so clean you wouldn't even know Olivia was here! She sent lots of pictures of walks and took them all around the neighborhood, which is great for my two babies! Thank you again for a delightful experience!”
“We love Leonella! We have had her come and stay with our dogs multiple times and after she leaves, our dogs act like we are the spare humans for a bit. Our Zach dog has eye meds he has to take daily and Leonella has never had issues giving them to him! If want to leave your dogs in great hands then Leonella is your girl!”
“Hollyn took exceptional care of my three dogs for two days while I was away. She put in the time to get to know each of my three dog’s personalities and offered to meet with us multiple times before the date of the booking to allow the dogs to get to know her! She took the time to read through all of the dogs’ care instructions and the home rules and made sure to ask me any questions she had before I left. She kept good communication and sent me pictures daily. Hollyn made sure my dogs got lots of outdoor time and that they were loved and cared for.”
“Elly was wonderful to work with! Our pup was well cared for and our house left in excellent condition when we returned home. We are grateful for Elly’s care and would be glad to have her watch our pup again in the future”
“Andrea was able to watch our dogs very last minute before Labor Day. Very seamless. Great communication and dogs enjoyed her around. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“Again, Sarah was wonderful in taking care of Lucy. She was available for my last minute request and managed everything well. She even watered my plants! Sarah always goes above and beyond. Lucy always seems very happy and content upon my return. I would highly recommend her.”
“Heidi had great communication throughout our trip with both daily texts and photos of our fur babies. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving our dog and cat for a whole week but Heidi took great care of them and the consistent updates kept my mind at ease!”
“Tony took such good care of our baby! He sent photos and updates. He was super communicative about their walks, feeding times, and made us feel like Reba was fully taken good care of! Thanks Tony!”
About: Lifelong cat and dog lover with experience caring for rescue cats of all personalities. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and provide loving, personalized care for every cat and puppy. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, growing up with rescue cats and two Saint Bernards. I currently have five cats of my own and truly understand how much our pets mean to us. I work full-time, but my schedule gives me mornings available for walks and pet visits, including early morning appointments. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets companionship, exercise, and loving care while you’re away or at work. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I keep pets supervised, secure, and comfortable while following each owner’s instructions and routine. During walks, I use safe routes and always keep pets properly secured. I’m attentive to their behavior, surroundings, and needs, and I treat every pet with the same patience and care I give my own five cats.
“Wow! Sophia is absolutely incredible! She was so flexible with our schedule, and when I got back from vacation, my house was spotless. Plus, my puppy adored her! We are incredibly grateful for all her help. Thank you so much!”
About: I had a pet dog growing up, and I have frequently dog-sat for my parents. I now find myself under employed and looking to make some extra money while spending time with dogs! I'm currently working part-time, with the option to work from home, so I am extremely flexible. I live in downtown Concord within walking distance of 3 parks, so near constant access to the outdoors is a bonus! I live in an apartment that allows dogs of all sizes and breeds. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do live on the ground floor and have a lead attached to my deck for when I'm hanging out on the deck I also have a pet cat, so ant dog staying in the house would need to be cat savy.
About: i have had 5 puppies from rottis to my pug and a cat as a kitten to senior, i have had fish, mice and snakes i am up by 530 to take bruno for his first walkies, then of course throughout the day. He is fed 2 times a day with treats off and on. There is cuddle time most of the day when i am home. i cuddle, we play fetch, hide and seek and run around. i change his water 2 times a day. he has bathes 1-2 times a month
About: Hi! I’m Sammy, and I would love to hang out with your pets! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, I raised everything from a guinea pig to a cat and two wonderful dogs, so I know firsthand that pets aren't just animals, they're family. I’ve been pet-sitting and walking dogs for over 9 years, starting in high school. Whether it’s an energetic pup who needs a solid outdoor run, a leisurely neighborhood stroll, or a cat who just wants a cozy companion and mealtime company, I’m your person. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I take pride in giving every pet the exact mix of fun, care, and attention they need. I’m also happy to host your dog in my own home! Whether you need drop-in visits, a fun walk, or a cozy home away from home where your pup can relax and get constant love while you're away, I've got you covered. Your pets will be in safe, loving hands, and you can definitely expect plenty of photo updates along the way! I can’t wait to meet your furry (or squeaky!) best friends. I’m currently a law student with an extremely flexible schedule! My classes are spaced out so that I'm never gone for more than 4 hours at a time, giving me plenty of free time during the day and evening to devote to your pets. I am more than happy to host dogs in my own home, offering a safe, comfortable, and cozy spot where they can hang out and get constant love while you're away. I live in a pet-friendly duplex situated in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with low traffic, wide sidewalks, and great routes for peaceful daily walks. My home is clean, secure, and fully set up to give your pet a safe, cozy space to relax without hazards. Because I’m never away for long stretches, I am able to closely monitor visiting pets, keep a structured routine, and give them the attentive care they deserve.
About: Everyone always asks me why dogs are so nice to me and quiet and I’m not really sure but I love all animals! So I hope you can trust me with yours! I work full time but after work I’m always available usually and on weekends. I’m very lenient towards everyone’s schedules so take your time! Don’t worry I will only be going to peoples homes to pet sit or walk because I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs unfortunately maybe one day when I get my own house though!
“We had a wonderful experience with Nikera! She stayed in our home while we were away and took great care of our pets and home. She kept us updated throughout the trip with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our home was well cared for, and it was clear everyone received lots of attention and love. She also went above and beyond by staying late to accommodate our travel schedule, which we truly appreciated. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful travel day much easier. She was communicative, reliable, and easy to work with from start to finish. We really appreciated knowing our pets and home were such good hands while we were away and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Bow on Rover is $61.05 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 727 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bow. 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 Bow 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 Bow 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 Bow 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 Bow. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
