“Highly recommended! Elayna was wonderful. She made sure to keep us updated on when she got to our place, walked and fed our puppy, and even our puppy’s naps. She sent us photos and even in the pictures it looked like our puppy, Lima was smiling with her there. Elayna was flexible, communicative, and very kind. We will definitely be booking her in the future for Lima.”
“This is my second time booking Autumn to stay in my home to take care of my dog and cat. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! My pets got plenty of love and hugs. Autumn was very responsive and made me feel as ease being away from home.”
“Cam went above and beyond to comfort our dog during 4th of July fireworks! Our dog was well taken care of, and clearly felt comfortable with Cam.”
About: I have been working in animal care for the last 10 years between animal shelters and boarding facilities. I can provide references. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, I have experience working with dogs and cats of all temperaments and also have knowledge in administering medications and insulin if needed. I am currently open. I can provide walks, drop ins, baths, nails, transport to and from daycare, whatever is needed! My routine is pretty set once I have a good schedule going! I can follow any instructions left by the client. I am very committed to making sure your pet stays happy and healthy in the time they spend with me.
“Salem was an amazing choice! It was my first time having someone stay in the house to care for my pets. But he put me completely at ease. Took such good care of the babies. We have pretty specific care instructions, and he followed them to a T. He spent so much time with them. He was very communicative. He left the house immaculate. I would 10/10 use him again. If you're looking for a trustworthy amazing sitter for your pets! Salem is your person!”
“Corrine did a great job watching over our two pups and the house for 9 days. She communicated with us regularly on how things were going and answered any questions we had while travelling. Pups were happy when we got home and she treated our home like her own. Will be reaching out the next time we need a pup sitter.”
About: I have had dogs for my whole life and so I know that it takes to care for them. I work at a dog boarding facility at the moment and so I also have experience in a professional setting. I am currently working part time, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pups! When I’m not at work I’m at the gym or at home! I have a large yard with plenty of room for your pups to play. I have a bernedoodle who is very sweet and loves to play with other dogs. I take Knawi to the dog park a lot and also on many walks, which I’m happy to bring your puppy as well.
“Brandon is the perfect pet sitter! He’s by far the most caring person who’s taken care of our cats, and went above and beyond to bond with them and communicate with us. Our shy cat was even sitting on his lap by the end of the week, something that usually takes her far longer to build up to. 10/10 recommend!”
About: I've cared for dogs since I was young and have handled dogs both large and small. I've cared for cats since 2019, I am newer to them technically, but I love how different they can be. I run my own business, so making my own hours allows me a lot of wiggle room on doing check-ins or rearranging my day to allow for walks. My home is a temple to good vibes and my happy lil buddies (Sprout and Tansy) get along with everyone they've met so far.
About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.
“Our Newf Ted loved his time with Beatriz and Hayden. They were wonderful companions for Ted and great houseguests. We’d highly recommend them and hope they can watch Ted in the future.”
“Casie stayed for the weekend with my 2 dogs, cats and guinea pigs. One of my pups requires a pretty extensive med schedule and she was great! I will totally ask Casie to watch over my babies again ♥️”
“Leo loves Gretchen. Calm, pleasant and easybfir Leo to accept. She was so good, he did not even care that we were leaving. Thank you for taking such hood care of our boy.”
“Isabelle was wonderful with our two cattle dogs, communicated with us and shared pictures throughout our long weekend away. In addition, she cared for our home as we would, and cleaned up after herself. We had nice calm girls when we got home, to me that’s a sign they were well cared for and loved!”
“George did a great job taking care of my elderly cat, including giving daily medication. He kept me updated with regular photos and videos so I knew she was doing fine, and was well looked after.”
About: I have always loved animals of all kinds, and caring for them is truly my passion. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, nurturing, and dependable. I grew up with dogs, so I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I treat every pet with love, attention, and care. I began watching dogs for family and friends in high school. Recently, I have been watching animals more frequently over the weekends which inspired me to create a Rover account! I am the happiest when I am around furry animals so I am very much looking forward to this journey! As a teacher, my weekdays are typically busy until 4:00 PM, but I’m available afterward for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My weekends are wide open, giving me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible! When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide fresh food and water, lots of playtime, endless attention, and plenty of affection. For walks, I focus on safety and keeping dogs active, happy, and comfortable while following their pace and needs.
“Tina was outstanding! She gave me daily updates on how my boy Chef was and was overall very thorough with making sure he was well taken care of. I will be reaching out to her again next time I need someone to watch Chef.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cheswick
Aubra was great with my fur babies and made the whole experience really easy and stress free. She kept me updated with messages and photos, asked thoughtful questions when needed, and was very communicative throughout the stay. My dog can take a little time to warm up, and she was really patient with her, which I appreciated. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely book Aubra again.
George took great care of our two dogs while we were out of town for the week of Christmas. He stayed at our house, sent frequent updates, and was super friendly, and it was clear the dogs really liked him and were well cared for the whole time. We had zero issues and would absolutely use George again.

The average cost of House Sitting in Cheswick is $23 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 per night.

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 Cheswick 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 Cheswick 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cheswick 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
