“Isabelle was wonderful staying with our pups!! She took them for extra walks and brought in our trash and packages, kept the whole house clean, sent a ton of pictures and was in constant communication. 10/10 want to use her again the next time we go out of town.”
“Coralie watched our cat while we were away and was wonderful. She was very flexible with our late booking and gave Yogi fun and entertainment. We got home to a very happy and relaxed cat. She also communicated the entire time very well and the house was wonderfully clean. We’ll definitely book with Coralie again”
“I could not be more pleased with Xena’s care of Finn. She has an excellent skill with dogs and is a great communicator. She did a wonderful job and I enthusiastically recommend her to care for your pets!”
“Shaina was a wonderful caregiver for our boys! She kept in touch with us the entire time we were away, we love seeing pictures of them playing & napping. The boys like having someone in the house while we are gone and did a great job keeping them company too.”
“Elizabeth has performed housesitting on several occasions for our two Golden Retrievers. We make sure that she is available when we schedule vacations that require onsite care for our fur babies. She provides frequent updates including pictures. We trust her to make the appropriate decisions regarding household activities.”
“Javien is amazing! He stepped in to care for our dogs for a few days at our place with barely any notice. Our dogs adored him right away! He also handled our dog’s diabetic needs, including insulin injections. Plus, he kept us in the loop with updates all day. We felt so confident that our dogs were in good hands, even when we needed a sitter last minute. We’re definitely going to ask Javien again for future pet sitter needs! Thanks, Javien!”
“Amazing isn’t even enough! Lauren goes above and beyond for not only my pets but my home! Our pups were so happy and well taken care of. Any issues that came up were acknowledged and handled so quickly. Came home to my house definitely so much cleaner than I left it, which is impressive with two big pups. Absolutely incredible experience and will definitely go with Lauren again on our next trip. Thank you so much for everything, it really means more than I can say!”
About: Neighbors, family and friends trusted and relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and play with their fur babies and can count on me to love their pets🐾 I currently have a wide availability during the week and weekends (select Sundays available upon request) for Mondays-Saturdays for the morning hours (7am-11am), afternoons (12 pm-4:30pm) and evening hours (4:30pm-9pm). I have a clean and quiet home and open space for play and big couch for cuddles and dog tv watching. My house has three levels for any fur baby to sit on the landing spot of the stairs
“Natalie and Edward were able to accommodate a day of (holiday at that) request for in home dog sitting of my two rambunctious dogs. Edward was timely, communicative, and playful with the dogs. I’d feel comfortable leaving my dogs with them again and would recommend!”
“Tyler was great with our dog! Tyler was communicative, responsive, sent us lots of pictures and our dog seemed to be comfortable around her. Will definitely book Tyler for a future occasion.”
“Karachi was amazing! She was able to house sit for us on short notice after another sitter canceled, and not only took great care of our dog but left the house even cleaner than when we left. Highly recommended and would definitely book again!”
“Professional, kind, thorough. Worked with Meredith for our first time having an in-home dogsitter and are incredibly pleased with the full experience. She sent daily photos and was on top of any important communication during the lead up and through the visit.”
“Charles arrived early and ready to entertain Izzy. My husky has so much fun. She was ready for bed when he left for the evening. We will definitely have him back in the future.”
“Trisha was great. I had to leave town and immediately offered to stay and take care of Vinicius. She even cooked for him! Vincius cannot eat process food. She also sent pictures of Vincius walking around the park. I strongly recommend Trisha as dog sitter!!”
About: i’ve taken care of dogs since i was 13. I used to dog sit for my neighbors and friends and family and they all have relied on me to walk,feed, and play with there dogs. I’ve always loved taking care of pets and taking them out to be active! I am currently working during the morning at a daycare but after I am free in the evening and weekends. I am willing to take them on walks and feed them I have a big back yard and I have a playful husky that will keep your dog company. I also have treats and a lot of toys for your dogs to play with aswell.
“If you're looking for peace of mind when you are away and can't take your non-human family member, look no further. Alex is really wonderful. He's a smart, caring well informed guy who will "get" the nuances of your baby's needs and behaviors and is truly interested in knowing this and being responsive to them. My 7 year old Lab had never been left with anyone but a family member and Alex was the perfect substitute ! Happy to chat with you as well if you a verbal reference !”
“Where to begin! We hired Rachel to house sit for a week while we went on vacation. Rachel was just wonderful! This was my first time not only using Rover but also my first time seeking out a dog sitter for an extended period of time. I was nervous about how the process was going to go, however i had nothing to worry about. Rachel was very attentive with my boys and spent plenty of time hanging out with them and making sure that they had lots of cuddle and play time. She provided me multiple photos daily and kept me up to date with everything happening back home while i was away on my vacation. Because of that I was able to be relaxed and stress free knowing my boys were in great loving care with Rachel. We returned home and our home was cleaner than we left it! I will absolutely be hiring Rachel in the future for all of my needs (drop in visits and house sitting) Book with confidence knowing your pets are in good care under Rachel!!”

Kaili cared for our puppy Freya and kitty Juniper, she was so wonderful, kind and caring! Super easy to communicate with and took such great care for our pets, as well as our home. She was extremely flexible and last minute willing to help give our puppy medicine. Thank you!!
Vanessa took great care of our dog once again! We loved all the pictures and updates she sent us while we were away. He had some new medicine since her last time taking care of him, and when he opted not to take it she had a solution ready when she let us know what was going on. We really appreciate the care and joy she provides our sweet boy while we’re away, in addition to her problem-solving and communication. Our dog is generally a nervous guy but she seems to have fully won his trust!
I had a wonderful experience! Minelis was incredibly attentive to detail, flexible, and genuinely caring when it came to Ace’s needs. I really appreciated the daily updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. The communication was excellent, and it was clear that Ace was well cared for throughout. I would absolutely recommend and book again!
Andrea was our first experience with a Rover pet sitter & she was wonderful! Our cat needs medication 2x a day and she had no issue making sure he got his meds. We came home to our home cleaner than we left it & our pets at ease and obviously well cared for! Would absolutely hire Andrea again :)
Steven did an awesome job with our very elderly pup while we were out of the country for over a week. He followed his food, walk, and medication routines, and gave daily updates with pictures. We came home to a pup who had been well-cared for. Thanks so much Steven!
My dog loved Alexis, he just stared at the front door when she left. Guess he didn’t miss us as such as I missed him. He had lots of walk and MANY treats. From all the pics he looked very chill. Can’t say enough good things about Alexis and the care she gave my dog.
Marina was incredible! Our regular sitter wasn't available and we managed to catch her on some available days. Not only did she handle our very high energy dog very well, but she even washed and replaced the bedding she used - definitely goes above and beyond!
Zoe was fantastic! I’m always worried about Prince when I leave, and have not had the best experience with overnight Rovers staying at my house ie keeping it clean etc. and Zoe was nothing short of a dream. She kept me updated, sent me so many pictures of Prince, was patient with him because he can be super energetic and let me know if he accidentally ate anything. I came back and my house was just how I left it. Hopefully she is available for my week long trip at the end of July because I will be booking again!
Elizabeth has performed housesitting on several occasions for our two Golden Retrievers. We make sure that she is available when we schedule vacations that require onsite care for our fur babies. She provides frequent updates including pictures. We trust her to make the appropriate decisions regarding household activities.
Merryrose was a fantastic sitter for Beeba! She took great care of her and kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which we really appreciated. Merryrose has a very reassuring personality, and we felt completely comfortable leaving Beeba in her care. We would absolutely book with her again.
Faith watched our three dogs and she did awesome! She was always extremely responsive, was assiduous in asking questions to make sure everything was done according to schedule, and provided much needed pictures and videos while we were away :). She allowed us to enjoy our trip confident our fur babies were in excellent hands. When we got back they were sad to see her leave... Highly recommend for anyone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Calverton is $24 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $86 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.
As of November 2026, there are 11,120 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calverton. 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 Calverton 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 Calverton 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 Calverton 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Calverton. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
