Susan was fantastic! She was incredibly friendly and kind to our dog, Josie, and treated her with great care. Susan was also extremely flexible with scheduling, which made everything so easy for us. We felt completely comfortable leaving Josie in her hands and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

Alison knocked it out of the park once again!!! My wife and I never have to worry about the car of our dog when Alison is on the watch. My Sherman loves her so much, he actually gets depressed for a day or two after she leaves.

Cammie was amazing. She came to meet my pup in advance and took great care of her. Normally Tilly is stressed when I leave but she was completely at ease when I got back and my apartment was probably tidier when I got back than when I left! Recommend Cammie 100%.

About: Hi! I'm Zoe, and I've been around animals my entire life. I've always had at least one dog growing up, and I shared 17 wonderful years with my cat, Love, before saying goodbye this past fall. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers, Finley and Sadie, who I've helped train from puppies. They have a strong foundation in obedience and can even walk off leash, which taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've also pet sat for friends and family, providing feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while they're away. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'll take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're gone. I also know how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, so I'll send regular photo updates and messages so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing at home, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I currently work online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I'm available any day of the week and can easily fit walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and cuddle time into my day. I'll make sure your pet gets lots of love, care, and companionship while you're away! I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I do my best to keep things as consistent as possible. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or any other special care your pet needs. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment while you're away. I'll also keep your home clean and secure and send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Growing up in a home filled with the joyful barks of dogs and the gentle chirps of a parakeet, my love for animals started early. For over a decade, I've been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from playful pups and curious cats to turtles and farm animals. My passion doesn't stop at basic care—I'm an adventurer at heart and love taking dogs on outdoor escapades. Whether it's a leisurely walk through the park or a thrilling hike in the hills, I'm here to ensure your furry friend gets the exercise and excitement they crave (couch potatoes welcome too) and treat them like family. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work remotely with only an occasional in-office day (about once a quarter), so I’m home most of the day. I only leave briefly for the gym or occasional errands, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet like family and follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Since I work from home, dogs get plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and provide regular photo updates for owners. My friendly, fully vaccinated dog enjoys having canine visitors, and introductions are always done safely.

Christine is amazing!! So caring and kind and a great communicator. Our senior dog has many challenges (meds, anxiety, feeding, messing in the house) and Christine is an absolute professional. Sent many pictures and reports while we were away. She made us feel so relieved to be able to go away and leave our old guy after he just had yet another health scare and she rescued us last minute when another petsitter had to cancel. She cared for Benji as if he was her own. She was so patient with him and made sure he was safe and comfortable at home while we were out of town. He made lots of messes which she kindly cleaned up. Christine went above and beyond and we recommend her wholeheartedly.

Yasmine did a great job taking care of my dogs. She got them out frequently for walks and was excellent about sending daily updates. We had unexpected travel delays and she was very accommodating to stay longer until we got back. We returned home to happy dogs and a clean house. I will definitely reach out again for future pet sitting/housesitting needs.

Wow. We are so impressed. Melissa and Jordan took great care of our dogs, took time to understand our routines, and sent us pictures and updates during our trip. They came on late notice and we felt very secure leaving our pups in their hands. They even took good care of our house too. Above and beyond and we are grateful.

About: I have always had pets in life (dogs, cats, rabbit, hamsters, fish) and even adopted a dog to live with me when I was in college. The majority of my experience is with dogs and it spans all sizes and breads (from an 8-pound Maltese to a 70+ pound American Staffordshire Terrier). Over the last few years, I have worked with several animal shelters and opened my house to foster pets in need. During this time I have worked to train puppies and taken care of pets that required special attention due to illnesses. I have recently retired and now have plenty of time to live the dream of caring for and playing all day with your fur children. I live on a pet friendly street (cul-de-sac) and my house is properly secure to keep pets safe (gates, crates if needed) and happily engaged in activities.

Chelsea was wonderful, we booked her last minute after a family member became ill and could not sit our dog, Kenzie. She stayed over night and sent pictures and updates. I felt very confident leaving our home and dog in her care. Will definitely use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Bunting

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bunting on Rover is $53.5 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 268 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bunting. 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 Bunting 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 Bunting 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 Bunting 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 Bunting. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
