Troy and Shalah are true animal lovers and are so thoughtful to the needs of the fur baby parents as well! They recently watched my baby Stumpy and kept me updated with texts and so many pictures! I had my first dog sitter cancel and they were so responsive when I reached out to them! I am happy it worked out this way as they are wonderful! Don't hesitate to book them! You won't be disappointed

This was our first time using Rover and Michaela did an excellent job. She was interested in the dogs and particularly vigilant about sticking to our care routine considering one of our dogs has some medical needs. She was communicative and sent us updates each day. We couldn't have asked for a better first experience for our babies.

About: I bring decades of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and kids. Animals naturally feel comfortable around me, and owners trust me because I show up, follow routines, and treat every pet like family. Dependable, calm, and genuinely caring. I have a flexible routine that allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles while keeping owners updated so they always know their pet is happy and cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised while in my care. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and pay close attention to pets' behaviors and needs. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family.

About: I have experience with all types of animals from cats, dogs, birds, and even chinchillas. Walking them is a pleasure and also makes me happy since they also get some time out of the house. I’m available to walk in the mornings to get that early rise as well as in the afternoons! It’s nice to get to walk outside and get some sunshine but also chill if needed. For my pets on my home as well as my clients I make sure they’re stimulated enough as well as have all the care they need.

About: I’ve been taking care of family friend dogs in my hometown for about 5 years. My neighbors always relied on me to watch their dogs while they were gone for a weekend or for a week for vacation. I love playing with dogs and learning their little personalities. I currently own two cats and they are amazing and entertaining to say the least. I currently work during the day from 8am to 5pm out of the Ewing, NJ area so I am available evenings during the week and weekends. I will work on gaining the cat or dogs trust depending on how the pet feels. I’m really great with trying to talk to them and learning their behavior/personality.

About: Hi! I’m Madison and I’m a college student athlete home for the summer! I have taken care of all types of dogs and pets since I was 10, and have always had many animals in the house since I was little. I have experience with many types of dogs with many different personalities, sizes, ages, and care needs. I currently have a pitbull and a yorkie at home, and have had many other pets prior including guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and ducks. I am comfortable with both large and small breeds, as well as senior dogs who may need a little extra care and attention. I am comfortable administering basic medications such as oral medication, topical treatments, or ear care. Beyond caring for dogs, I also babysit for multiple families and love to care for little kids which has given me the experience to adapt to different households, schedules, and routines balancing both pets and kids! I’m currently a college student-athlete home from school on break, and I am available through August. I am very flexible with scheduling (mornings, weekends, etc.) and can provide stop in visits and consistent care throughout the day! I try to make pets feel as comfortable as possible by sticking to their normal routine so they feel at home and stress free while owners are away, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, fresh water, treats, etc. I also like to keep them entertained with walks, parks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day! I currently have two dogs at home, so I am used to dogs of different sizes, personalities, energy levels and needs. I have experience with older dogs who may need more assistance and attention and can administer basic medications, as well as younger dogs who may want more exercise and playtime. When in a client’s home, I always make sure to respect the space and follow routines and special requests carefully. I also like to send photos and updates to owners throughout the day so they feel connected while they’re away!

I was very nervous to leave my 14-year old blind, arthritic pug overnight but Michael totally put my mind at ease. He gave him wonderful care, attention, and affection that went above and beyond. Plus took care of my three needy kitties as well! And he sent lots of pics and videos, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Michael. He was responsible and gave top quality care.

Ryan was great! She stayed with our "pups" (as she cutely called them) for almost a week. Right from the start she sent texts, photos, and a sense that all was under control. Meeting her before the stay both her experience as a student working towards going to vet school and as a horse owner sealed the deal. We'd happily use her again.

About: I love dogs and have volunteered at the local shelter for the past 6 years...walking, feeding, cleaning cages of dogs and cats. I have owned several dogs over the years...all rescues and mixed bully breeds. I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to spend time taking care of your fur-babies. My home is pet friendly and I enjoy taking your pet for walks. I have a fenced yard. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in my bed. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and there are several walking paths in my neighborhood.

About: I have had multiple dogs and other animals like fish and lizards my whole life. We did not have cats but I love all animals I work from home so I can essentially keep an eye on your pets anytime local to me and if not local I am always open to make arrangements. I have a fenced in yard and frequently will take dogs for walks. I live in bristol so there are plenty of places to go for walks and always make sure to clean up after the dog.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 9 years now. I also helped when my dog had her 5 puppies around 7-8 years ago. Now, I watch my two dogs on the daily. I have also watched elderly dogs and provided night care. I am generally available every day unless I have something personal planned — feel free to message me to check for a specific date / dates! It is very important to me that my focus is on your fur-baby, so I prioritize playing with them and keeping an eye on them to ensure safety and wellness. I always make sure that they have water and they are fed exactly how they need to be fed.

Above and beyond! I cannot begin to express how amazing of a job Vanessa did watching our 2 dogs ands house. We booked Vanessa with only a few days notice due to another dog sitter canceling. She was a total hit with our 2 dogs, and also took on a ton of extra unexpected responsibilities. We had an issue with some outdoor cats that required a lot of extra support and she didn’t hesitate to jump in and help. My wife and I are so unbelievably grateful for her assistance while we were away. I cannot recommend her enough. We will forever be utilizing her expertise in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bristol

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bristol on Rover is $38.85 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 5,551 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bristol. 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 Bristol 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 Bristol 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 Bristol 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 Bristol. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
