“Once again, Taylor did an amazing job taking care of our dog. It felt great to be away and feel confident that he was in good hands. And she sends THE best update photos. We'll definitely come back to Taylor again.”
“Sara was absolutely amazing! One of our dogs can be a little nervous meeting new people, and Sara was so patient. She came in, sat down, and let Heidi get comfortable at her own pace. She even brought her own treats, which the dogs loved. While we were away, she checked in regularly with photos and videos, and we really appreciated that. And when we got home, I swear the house was even cleaner than when we left it. Truly a 10/10 experience. Sara was fantastic!”
“Thanks for taking care of my babies! I’m so glad to have someone that they were comfortable with so quickly. We appreciate that you were considerate of our home and so sweet with our girls.”
“We recently worked with Tracy in Frederick, MD to watch out two pups while we were away for about a week. This was the first time we asked someone who wasn't a family or immediate friend to watch our home and pups, and we would welcome her into our home again! She did an excellent job keeping us in the loop while sending adorable pictures of them playing in the yard and hanging around the house. She established a quick bond with our dogs, one of which is on anxiety medications, and it was clear they got along with Tracy well during her stay. Her support gave us peace of mind while we traveled, and we look forward to working with her agin.”
“Isabel exceeded our expectations. She stayed at our house and took great care of our 2 pups both with special needs. She communicated well with me and responded quickly. I feel I can trust her which is a big deal for me as I have only had friends and family care for the pups while away before this experience. We will definitely contact Isabel/Rover again.”
“Adrienne was fantastic with our 3 pets for several days at our house! She communicated well and provided great photos daily. We can highly recommend Adrienne and plan to hire her again.”
“Sabrina is the absolute best!!!! I feel so blessed that we found her. She’s such a kind person with the sweetest energy. The animals flock to her!! She’s the only person we’ll be using from now on.”
“First time using Rover and leaving my 10-week-old puppy, and Ava was absolutely fantastic. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day, and I could tell he was having so much fun. She kept him on his schedule and was clearly experienced with puppies. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands- will definitely be using Ava again!”
“Maria was so great with our dogs! She kept our house tidy, was on time, and was super flexible when our plans changed! We booked her last minute and I am so grateful she helped us out! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Our dogs love her and the house was left perfect after she left. One of our dogs is old and needs care every 4 hours or less and some pills. He is also deaf and uses sign language to communicate. She was able to handle all of this no problem. Booking her again for our next trip!”
About: I have over 45 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages as well as many other types of animals that have honored me with living with me over the years (cats, horses, guinea pigs, gecko, Madagascar hissing cockroach, parrots, flying squirrel, rabbits). My original dream was to become a vet so I have a background interning with veterinarian, working multiple years in a grooming and boarding facility and had my own very successful animal care and sitting business as a teenager. I have great nail trimming skills as well! Animals are naturally drawn to me and sense my love and respect for them. I work remotely so am pretty flexible with schedules. I also have taken the pet CPR course! I work remotely from home so am flexible in what I can offer. I feed my own pets multiple times a day and am able to monitor what is consumed. I also live in a beautiful community near parks for nice walks. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs who live next door who are always interested in playdates if desired. I work remotely so have flexibility in what I can offer clients. I do have a crate on premises if you do not have although I prefer (as do pets) for them to have their familiar one! There are friendly cats who live with me although I would likely gate off my kitchen / sunroom area where my office is so that I can supervise and ensure harmony with unknown pet if in my home.
“Noa was great! I’m usually pretty skeptical about leaving my dog with anyone. I found Noa on Rover and it was the right fit. I was gone for over a week and had her house sit as my dog doesn’t like new surroundings. He was not only well taken care of, but I received updates and pictures. She was very responsive with any questions I had while I was away. I came home to a happy dog and a clean apartment. I would definitely book her again!!”
“Kaila was amazing!! She took care of my German Shepherd while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated the whole time and I’m so grateful she took such a good care of my baby!”
“I highly recommend Jessica! I was extremely happy with the care she provided for my two cats and my little special‑needs dog. She was responsive whenever I reached out and consistently shared updates throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind knowing my pets were in excellent hands. Jessica was also very respectful of my home—it was left tidy and well cared for (trash taken out, bed made, no dishes in the sink, etc.). I’m really looking forward to booking her again the next time I travel!”
“This is the second time I’ve asked Alexandra to come back for a house-sitting and again everything was perfect! She sent me pictures and updates and I could tell Cola was so happy. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Sherri is amazing!! I am so thankful that we found her to take care of our two princesses while we were out of town for our wedding! I know they were in good hands! Sherri sent some picture updates showing our two girlies having a blast! I don’t even think they really knew we were gone!! With Sherri, I didn’t have anything to worry about at home. 😊”
“Our sweet Gimli was happy with Marilyn! She was very responsive and reliable. She shared happy photos of our dog! I appreciated finding our home just as we left it! I would recommend Marilyn for watching your pets!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young. I grew up caring for various pets, including fish, birds, and cats. During my studies in Turkey and while living with family, I cared for dogs and helped raise them hands on. I treat every pet with genuine love, patience, and attentiveness, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be present and attentive. Whether it's feeding, playing, or regular check in, I can easily adapt my daily routine to fit your pet's exact needs, ensuring they receive constant care, love, and attention throughout the day Pet safety, comfort, and well being remain absolute top priorities. A calm, secure, and loving environment is provided by closely following specific instructions regarding feeding, routines, and daily care
“We have a new energetic rescue dog that’s only been with us for 2 months. Tiana handled her so well and sent updates to let us know how she was doing. I’ll be booking her again for sure.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Ceresville is $50

Adrienne watched Quincy for us over the weekend, and she did a wonderful job! She provided thoughtful updates every morning and evening, which I really appreciated. As a dog parent, it’s so reassuring to know how both your dog and sitter are doing while you’re away. During one of their walks, she also handled an unexpected situation with our neighbor, who wasn’t fully aware of their surroundings, and safely guided Quincy through it. I really appreciated her attentiveness and care. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Quincy this weekend! We’ll see you in October! 🐾
Hannah did a perfectly fine job watching our dog over the weekend. She handled his standard routine, followed our instructions, and kept him fed and let out on schedule. Communication was clear, she sent regular photo updates, and we came home to a happy, healthy pet. She is a reliable choice if you need someone to cover the core basics for a weekend trip.
Karen was amazing with watching our pups and cat while we were out of town for 12 days. She was very communicative with multiple updates and pictures throughout the day. Karen also helped keeping an eye and taking care of things around the house to make sure everything is good while we were away. Thank you very much for everything and will reach out for future home boarding needs!
Kristen was fantastic with our dogs even when our husky went full husky on the very first night. With one of our dogs being a new diabetic, it was great to have her expertise stay with the dogs so she could administer the insulin shot twice a day. We would definitely use Kristen again.
Hayden was fantastic! We have 3 high energy pitbulls and Hayden was wonderful with them. During the initial meet and greet, he was warm and engaging with them. They adored him. During his stay, he was communicative, respectful, and took wonderful care of our furbabies!
Amanda bonded with my cat immediately. He is a 'super senior' in good health, but he gets quite needy when we go away, which is why I needed a sitter who truly understands cats, and Amanda is that person! She took great care of him and the house. Having a peace of mind while away is invaluable. Thank you again, Amanda, for your kind care of our needy little guy, and your excellent communication.
James has been watching my dogs for years now (maybe 8-9 years), and he is absolutely phenomenal. It means so much to have a dog sitter you can truly trust, not only with your beloved pets, but also in your home. He takes wonderful care of both my dogs, one of whom is elderly, needs medication and extra attention, and requires very careful handling around other dogs and people due to reactivity. James manages their needs with so much patience, understanding, and grace. He is just amazing. I highly, highly recommend James. He’s the best!

FAQs for House Sitting - Ceresville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Ceresville on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,688 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Ceresville. 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 Ceresville 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 Ceresville 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 Ceresville 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.

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.
