“Isaiah was wonderful with our dogs (and home), and could not have been more respectful. Our 3 pups and each bit unique, and we left feeling like we knew they were in good hands. He was also responsive and helpful when a unexpected delivery arrived while gone. We will certainly reach out again next time we are in need of a sitter.”
About: I have always owned dogs and one is medium sized and one is small. I got a five month old puppy when I was 14 and trained her fully. I dog sit for family and friends and want to expand and do more dog sitting! I love cuddling with dogs, taking them for walks, and playing with them. I adore dogs so much that I did a research presentation in a public speaking class about different dog breeds and their traits! In the summer, I am a part time nanny for a wonderful family. As of right now, I am available on Monday mornings and early afternoons, Friday afternoons and nights, and all day Saturdays and Sundays. During the school year, I am away at college as a nursing student but come home for a few days monthly. I am fully capable of giving your dog walks, clean up their mess, give medication, crate them, etc., genuinely anything that is important to you! I will give so many belly rubs and cuddles as well.
“Skye was amazing! This was my first time using this app so I was not sure what to expect. Skye preceded all my expectations! She took care of my pups like they were her own. She gave one their meds on time every day. She walked them. She played with them. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos to let me know they were well cared for and enjoying their time!! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: We had three dogs growing up. I’ve had three of my own as well. I am currently the go to sitter for my best friend’s dog. I’ve cared for dogs in extreme health situations/have seen just about everything. I’m great with dogs/love spending time with them. I also work remotely and am available to come and pet sit. I am open to potentially boarding, but I would have to talk to my landlords first. I work from home, with two thirty minute breaks. I do not start until 10:30 and can do morning walks or feeding. I’m off at 6:30 and can do evening walks or feeding as well. I’ve had a full range of experience caring for my dogs over the years. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding and basic grooming. I also have experience with a wide variety of medications and have no problem giving supplements or medication at your direction. Since I work remotely, as long as there is some desk space to set up and Internet service, I can stay over any day of the week if needed. I consider myself a good communicator and am happy to send updates or answer any questions you may have.
“Having Gabriella watch my dogs was a wonderful experience! She was very communicative, great with the dogs, and I felt very comfortable leaving them with her! Would definitely recommend using her services!”
“Levi was great! My dog, Bella seemed to warm up to him immediately during our meet and greet which helped ease my anxiety as I was leaving the country for 10 days! He was great with communication and I will definitely use Levi again!”
“Jozy was amazing! She was able to check on my dog three times a day while we were gone over the weekend. She was attentive to my dogs needs and made sure to give her enrichment and the attention she needed.”
“Angela went above and beyond as a Petsitter- truly spending all day with our anxious pups and cleaning up our house in the process! She checked in constantly and asked all of the right questions to make them feel comfortable. Will absolutely book with her again.”
“Trinity house-sat my 2 crazy dogs plus 5 cats while I was gone for 5 days. She did a great job and sent texts and pictures. I would definitely ask her again to watch my critters”
“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Celeste provided for Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup! She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Celeste was professional, attentive, and clearly treated our pets as if they were her own. Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup absolutely loved her, and we could tell they were comfortable and well loved the entire time. We highly recommend Celeste to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 10 years, mostly my own (now senior) dogs. I also had a dog who was special needs (partially blind and deaf), and unfortunately passed 3 years ago. I am always open to taking care of your pets! I’m normally the most free every day but Wednesday and do not mind spending the night with your pets! I cannot currently house pets in my own home, but I’m always free to stay at your home! I drive, so only staying for a few hours at a time is also okay. Since I have senior dogs, they often “forget” they went outside, so frequent potty breaks (including in the night) is a must. I also give my dogs medication, so if your pup needs oral medication, I am 100% okay with that.
“Cecilia is a great dogsitter! She’s very communicative, which helped me to feel at ease leaving my dog with her while I was gone. She followed all of the instructions I left and took great care of Murph and my apartment.”
About: I have had dogs since I was 6, taken care of them my whole life, but don’t have one of my own currently sadly. I want to get a dog within the next year so would to take care of yours while I am interviewing from home! I work from home for now, interviewing for residencies, with lots of time to take pets out throughout the day. I go on long walks and runs on my own daily so will keep your pet happy and active! I love caring for pets, petting and cuddling with them, taking them on long walks, and playing with them indoors while I am sitting around.
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with all my pets. Communication was perfect. Super kind. My pup Rosie loved her immediately which never happens so that tells you how amazing she is! Will absolutely book with her again”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I love animals and currently have an Anatolian Shepherd who is 4. I am good with big and small dogs. I also have a cat! I work part-time with great flexibility for mornings & afternoons even some evenings, allowing me to easily adapt to your pet's specific routine, potty breaks, and daily exercise needs anytime. Whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's exact feeding, potty, and medication routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and keep environments completely secure. In mine, I ensure a fully pet-proofed, supervised setting, keeping you updated with photos along the way.
“Cathy came to our house and stayed with our 3yr. Old great pyrenes who has never been boarded and only crated for short periods of time.Cathy came to house to meet her ahead of time and that even made us feel good about the experience, we will use Cathy again anytime the need arises she was like family...”
“We were somewhat anxious about leaving our dog with a sitter for the first time. We were very impressed when we met Rachelle, and our minds were put at ease by her maturity and her knowledge and experience with dogs. Our dog instantly developed a bond with Rachelle, and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry about the safety of our dog and our home. Everything went smoothly, and I highly recommend Rachelle as someone who is dependable and will take good care of your pet.”
About: I've had one dog, one guinea pig, two hamsters, and three cats in my day- and I've loved every second of having each one of them. I've been pet-sitting for family members since I was 13 (including dogs, cats, and rabbits). I am not shy about grooming, medications, accidents, or any other tasks for needy animals! I currently am looking for a new full-time job, so my schedule is fairly free. I am available to work weekends, extended stays, or simply a night to free up a tight schedule! I prefer a day notice to booking care, but am flexible given the situation. If working an extended or multi-day stay, I will have to leave twice a day to feed, groom, and otherwise take care of my cat, Butter. I like to know the habits your animals are used to so I don't disturb their routine; e.g. feeding times, litter box cleaning/ potty breaks, walk schedules, grooming schedules, etc. I understand the importance of stability and security to a pet and their owner and do my absolute best to maintain their regularly scheduled care, while they adjust to a new human in their safe space.

Leah was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! 🐾 She took great care of them while I was at work, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly really cares about my fur babies. My dogs were happy and well taken care of when I got home. I would definitely recommend Leah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! ❤️ Thank you Leah!☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Cheviot is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 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 1,299 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cheviot. 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 Cheviot 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 Cheviot 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 Cheviot 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
