“Caitlyn did an awesome job looking after our 2 energetic dogs and house while we were away for a week. She was very responsive to messages and sent lots of good photos and our dogs seemed to be very comfortable with her based on the photos she sent. Would definitely use her again one day.”

“Robin was great! She did 3 pre-visits (we booked her a month and a half in advance). She stayed in our home for almost three weeks. Gave us almost daily updates with pictures. Our two fur babies were calm and relaxed when we came home. The house was left clean and in order. Will be using her again when we go away!”

“We recently had the pleasure of having Sam look after our beloved bulldogs, Carlton and Stella, for a night as a trial run before our vacation. To say we were impressed would be an understatement. It’s no small feat to win over our dogs, who are very much like our children to us, but Sam did so with remarkable ease and grace. From the moment Sam stepped into our home, it was evident that she possesses a special kind of magic that animals are drawn to. Her ability to connect with Carlton and Stella was instantaneous, and the peace of mind that brought us cannot be overstated. It was a relief to see how comfortable they were with her, even in such a short period. Sam’s professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals shone through, making it clear that our dogs were not just being looked after, but were also being cared for, played with, and loved as if they were her own. The updates and photos we received further reassured us that we had made the right choice. We are already looking forward to working with Sam again and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re seeking someone who will treat your pets with all the love, attention, and care they deserve, look no further than Sam. Our vacation will undoubtedly be more enjoyable knowing our furry family members are in the best hands possible. Thank you, Sam, for giving us the gift of peace of mind and for taking such wonderful care of Carlton and Stella. You’ve truly set a new standard for pet care, and we are so excited to have you as part of our extended family”

About: I treat every dog like they're part of my own family. I take the time to get to know each dog's personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether you have a playful puppy who needs patience and consistency, an energetic adult dog, or a sweet senior who requires a little extra care (including medications if needed), I'm happy to provide the attention they deserve. You'll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. A bit about me ..... I am a animal health tech as a well as a mama to both two dogs and human babies ! My heart always has a place for caring for animals !! I do work full time but weekends I'm always free ! And during that time I put my full time and effort in to pets I am a very flexible person and easy going person so it all depends on the animal and there needs and attention in the clients homes.
About: I recently lost my 14 year old senior dog who had been blind for the last four years of his life. We managed walks with the use of bells on my laces. I was his seeing eye human! I have raised dogs from puppies. I have had dogs in all of the off-leash parks in Edmonton and surrounding areas. I am an incredibly active person who loves the outdoors and the river valley. I’m available for boarding on the weekends and live close to walking trails, the river valley and dog parks. I love to be outside and active but I also love to sew and quilt so my home is very peaceful. I would take the dogs for regular long walks. I have a dog park across the street from me and I am within walking distance of the river valley and some of the ravines. I would take care of your pet as you ask. If you use a kennel, I would do the same. If you have rules for the pets I would respect and abide by them.
“Derlene is amazing. We had her for a home sitting. All of our dogs loved her. She sent us pictures of them while we were away. She was very friendly, personable and easy to communicate with while we were away. Our house was spotless with freshly washed sheets and made bed when we got home. We were so happy with her that we've booked her again. Thank you Derlene.”


About: Pets have been a huge part of the family since before I was born. As the oldest cousin, I've been the designated pet/babysitter since I was 10! Most recently, I've been raising a rescue named Pretzel. She's a high energy, two month old puppy! I've been training her to ring a bell when she needs to go outside, and she has picked it up so quick! As an actor, I work part time and attend rehearsals. I can always accomodate specific walk/meal times, and I'm free to spend nights anywhere needed in the city. I always carry treats with me to make sure your little one feels safe. I make it a priority to walk and play with your pets so they always feel great! I'm also reliable when it comes to pets with special needs or who need to take medications.
About: I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life and intent to always own some. I’m always happy to give any animal the love and play it needs. I’m currently working part time only 2 days a week and would love to spend the rest of my time taking care of the ones who need it. I will always make sure to take care of your home and leave it better than how I found it. Your pets will be well taken care of in the environment they know the best
“Lyra, was great with my nervous boy Suki, she was patient and ingaged him with playtime and love. I was worried Suki would b really anxious, but he warmed up to her quickly.”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. All of my own pets were adopted. Rescue animals hold a special place in my heart and helped build the foundation of my experience working with animals that have a wide range of temperaments, backgrounds, and needs. I’m often the person friends and family rely on when they need a trustworthy pet sitter, and I currently provide multiple dog walks daily for repeat clients. These households include small, medium, and large breeds, some with multiple dogs in the home. I focus on caring for one pet household at a time, which allows me to give each pet consistent attention and maintain their normal routine. I regularly care for dogs with very different personalities and energy levels—from playful puppies to calm seniors. I also have experience supporting dogs recovering from injuries, caring for pets that require medication, and working with anxious or reactive dogs. Animals tend to respond well to my calm, patient energy. I’m very attentive to body language and behavior, which helps me respond appropriately if a dog is unsure, stressed, or needs reassurance. My goal is always to maintain each pet’s normal routine and provide calm, consistent care so they feel safe and comfortable. I communicate clearly with owners, send regular updates and photos, and treat every pet and home with respect. Reliability is extremely important to me. Before the first booking, I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and needs so their day, walks, and care stay as normal and predictable as possible. Please request a meet-and-greet before new bookings to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone. While dogs are my primary focus, I’m also happy to care for cats and make sure they receive the same attentive and reliable care. I’m available seven days a week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, making it easy to fit care around your schedule. My flexibility allows me to respond to your pet’s needs whenever they arise. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I communicate clearly with owners and treat every pet and home as if it were my own. I always share updates and photos so owners can see their pets are doing well and happy. I focus on caring for one pet household at a time, which allows me to give each pet consistent attention while maintaining their normal routine so they are comfortable. I take the time to understand each pet’s temperament, preferences, special needs, triggers and routine so they feel safe. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to their behavior and the environment, making sure they’re stress-free. In clients’ homes, I follow instructions carefully, respect routines, and maintain a calm atmosphere. If boarding a small or medium dog in my apartment, I am patient and maintain a calm environment with focus on supervision, routine, and structured walks. Please request a meet and greet prior to booking, to ensure you and your pets are comfortable and it’s a good fit for everyone.
“Kyla was so good to our babies! We have a very anxious German Shepard mix and another rescue dog that can be quite a handful sometimes and she was so good with them! She provided very good updates each day with cute pictures for us to see. Kyla even let us know that one of the dogs had an excitement pee when she arrived and she wanted to clean it up asap so it didn’t stain. Our house was left so clean and our babies seem to have had a very good weekend with her! We will definitely rebook with her again!”

“Paige took such wonderful care of my dog, Lyra, while house sitting over the weekend. She was polite, respectful, and incredibly trustworthy from start to finish. What really stood out were the thoughtful updates she sent throughout the weekend, complete with photos of Lyra enjoying her walks, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Lyra was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I came home to a relaxed pup and a well-looked-after home, and it was obvious Lyra had been genuinely loved on while I was gone. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paige to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter—she’s truly a gem, and I’d happily have her back anytime!”

“Colby was an absolute pleasure to work with! She kept in great touch, was very accommodating to our requests, and took such wonderful care of our dog — he was happy and relaxed when we got home. The house was left immaculate, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We’d happily have her back anytime!”

About: I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. With over 7 years of experience caring for my own pets as well as my neighbours’ dogs and cats, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm routine, I ensure they receive personalized attention, regular exercise, and plenty of affection. I also have experience caring for puppies who need extra patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who require gentle, specialized care. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals, making it easy for me to provide consistent care, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize each pet’s needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks and visits, I follow their regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I’ve grown up with and cared for mostly medium to large dogs, with energy levels ranging from calm, easygoing pups to high-energy walkers. I’m confident handling stronger dogs and tailoring walks to their needs—whether that’s a relaxed pace or burning off some zoomies. I’m attentive, patient, and prioritize safety, while also bringing lots of playfulness and “fun aunt” energy to every visit. I work full-time Monday to Friday, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting in the evenings, with flexible availability on weekends. I’m intentional about the time I spend with each pet, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and consistency in their routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. Living in an apartment means all outdoor time is supervised, with regular walks and structured routines tailored to your dog’s energy level. I’m confident handling medium to large dogs and always focus on safe, attentive walks. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things consistent and stress-free. You can expect regular updates, lots of attention, and a calm, reliable presence.
About: Hey there! I have owned dogs since I was 8 and have had the pleasure of working at a dog daycare for about a year. No matter the size or breed they will feel loved while you guys are away. I always make sure to share pictures when we’re on walks or playtime as well as those funny poses that they do while they sleep! I am only available for drop in visits, if you need overnight stay in your home please contact me as I am sometimes available for certain days! If you have any questions or concerns please reach out right away and I will definitely get back to you as soon as I see the message! I am a part time receptionist who works from 11-7 Tuesdays/Thursdays some weeks. I will be available any other day for drop in visits, please let me know if you have any questions about this. How I would care for your pet in your home or even drop in visits will vary depending on how your schedule is like with your animal. Walks in the morning and as soon as I am back from work as well as any type of routine you normally do when you are home with them! I want nothing but the best for your time away and one way I can help is by making sure you’re not stressing or worrying about them!
“Brooke was absolutely wonderful with our pets, I could tell she loved them and they loved her. As a concerned "parent to my babies" I had reservations about leaving Millie and Ella with someone as they are only a year old and I haven't been away from them much. My husband and I also work from home so our pets are really never alone. Brooke stayed in our home, listened to our concerns, read all our directions, reported to us daily and was very professional and caring. First time using Rover and Brooke, I give them both 5 stars.”

“Jasmine was amazing with our dogs. Our senior who can be quite fussy took to Jasmine right away. We had constant updates with photos of our kiddos. It was nice to see that they were doing so well. She has great communication skills, took our dogs for walks and we came home to a clean house. Very impressed with her. We will definitely use her in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Devon 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 639 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Devon. Enter your postal code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Devon 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!
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.
- Garbage & recycling: Taking garbage bins 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 Devon walking routes, the location of your favourite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Devon 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!
You can find what you need to review a sitter on their profile before booking with them. Each sitters’s profile on Rover shows verified reviews, identity check, and ratings to give a glimpse of how their previous visits went. You can also use the Meet & Greet to walk through your home, identifying which areas, like your bedroom, are off-limits or not. Requesting details of your home security through the app can also be a good way to have your sitter keep you updated about your home.
If you have security cameras or doorbells, Rover asks that you disclose them to sitters before you book.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a veterinary professional or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
