“Gabbi was AMAZING! She really seemed to care for my pets and did a great job of keeping my home clean and tidy. I would 100% trust her again with my cat and dog!”
“Sydney was great with our husky and pug! Our pug is diabetic, blind and elderly and Sydney was fine with giving her insulin. They were both well cared for. We will definitely seek out her services when we need a sitter in the future!”
“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”
“Kristy staying 7-8 hours on 04/13,she was very attentive to snowball's needs in going out to go to the bathroom,she took her to the park which she absolutely loves and snowball very much enjoyed the time with her..giving her a bunch of kisses and hugs...just loved her..”
“I had the pleasure of having Hannah stay at our home and spend time with our pup Olive. I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Hannah took great care of Olive, sending me regular updates and photos of their time together. She picked up on Olive’s quirks in no time LOL! I would definitely recommend Hannah to others, we will be reaching out to her again!”
“Evan was great! Very good with handling Delilah and providing updates on her as well as not being afraid to ask clairfying questions for things I forgot to mention in her care plan”
“Lindsey was a fabulous pet sitter for our two dogs and cat! This was our first time using Rover, and we could not have asked for a better experience! Lindsey was professional, attentive, detail-oriented, and truly treated our pets like they were her own. She spent lots of time with them inside and outside, took them on nice walks, and kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and videos that alleviated our worries. They didn’t seem to miss us at all when we got home! Would recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for someone to care for your pets - she is wonderful! We will certainly be reaching out to her again.”
“Wonderful experience with Ava! She's a terrific and reliable house sitter, and took great care of our kiddos while we were away. You can tell from meeting her that she's got a huge heart. She's already lined up for the next time we go away.”
“Natalie was honestly one of the best sitters I’ve ever had on Rover, hands down. She came to meet my fur babes twice before the stay, which immediately put me at ease. She’s just really thoughtful and has such a calm, natural way with animals, you can tell right away she knows what she’s doing and genuinely cares. While I was away, she kept me updated and everything felt easy and stress free the whole time. At one point I even had a perishable package delivered and she took care of it without me even asking, which just says a lot about how attentive she is. But honestly, the biggest thing is how much my pets liked her. That’s always the real test, and they were totally comfortable with her. I’d absolutely have her stay with them again in a heartbeat.”
“Shyann was wonderful and patient with my skeptical rescue dog. She was communicative and sent pictures daily, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy going out of town for a concert. I’m definitely rebooking her again.”
“Bri and her partner Jake did such an excellent job caring for our older dog with separation anxiety. From the start of the meet and greet I knew that they would be able to give him the patient care and attention we wanted him to have while we were away. They were detail oriented and asked thoughtful questions in order to understand his needs and routines. Before the stay, they were responsive and communicative making sure to confirm all the details. During the stay they provided the perfect amount of updates (including photos and videos) so we were assured he was doing well but still able to be present during our trip. We felt at ease knowing that he was well cared for and could tell that they were doing everything they could to help him feel comfortable while we were away. The cherry on top was that we came home to a clean house! They went above and beyond to clean up after themselves and leave our home better than they found it. Would definitely recommend them and will be booking with them again for future stays.”
“Bethany was great with my two yorkie boys. I was hesitant to leave them with someone new, but she took great care of them and updated me with photos and messages throughout her sit. Will definitely be utilizing her services again!”
“Victoria watched our giant dog, Bear, when my husband and I took an overnight trip to Temecula. She took amazing care of him, and even stayed longer to clean up after him when he had a bout of diarrhea in the middle of the night. Overall, she’s a really pleasant and responsible dogsitter, and I would definitely hire her again.”
“Kathryn was wonderful. She kept me informed of how Baxter was doing. He went on plenty of walks and was very happy with Kathryn. I will use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter”
“Kamryn was absolutely amazing. She took exceptional care of Lucky, and we truly can’t say enough good things about her. She kept us consistently updated and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Kamryn is truly a gem - both as a person and as a sitter. We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”

Kaylea was great with our dog and house while we were out of town. We have never left her with anyone besides family before and Kaylea took care of her like she was her own and sent us a few updates to check in! We would highly recommend Kaylea and will book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,422 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cecil. 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 Cecil 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 Cecil 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 Cecil 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.
