“Shanon was great! You can tell she’s definitely comfortable around animals. She had our skittish pups eating out of her hand (literally) the first night she was at our house. I never felt like I was bothering her with my questions or extra “forgot to mentions” and trusted completely that she would reach out with any questions or concerns. Our vacation was so enjoyable knowing our pups and kitties were safe at home and in good hands. I would recommend Shannon without hesitation!”
“Polina was wonderful! She asked questions for clarification. She sent plenty of pictures of the dogs throughout her stay. Very pleasant and our dogs loved her. Highly recommend.”
“Ginger was fantastic with our dog and cat! She communicated with us regularly, followed all of our dog’s special needs perfectly, and left our home in pristine condition! We will definitely use Ginger again anytime we need pet care.”
“This is our second stay with Allie and we always love having her! We had a long trip out of state this time and it was nice to be able to leave our pups and home to someone we can trust. She’s a great communicator, polite, considerate, and great with our dogs. We’ll keep having her back as long as she’ll have us!”
“Jordan met my pets before house sitting. I could tell right away that he was interested in my 2 dogs and a cat. He got down on their level and rubbed ears and neck exactly as they prefer. He was wonderful even doing little chores around the house unasked but very appreciated. All my pets are on meds and he managed them without difficulty even my cat’s ear med. Usually when I get home, my cat cries for a day as she is so happy to be back on her routine with me. This time she hardly peeped, letting me know that Jordan had been a pretty good substitute. I really wish I could keep Jordan a secret but I guess I need to share how good he is.”
“Dawn was great with our furbabies! She made sure to keep us updated with photos and messages throughout our time away. We did not have to worry that they were not being properly cared for while gone.”
“Kelsey was absolutely phenomenal! She did an amazing job keeping me updated on my pups and how they were doing. On top of that, she was a pleasure to talk to and took great care of my home. Highly recommend!!”
“Blair stayed in our home and watched our two sister kitties for 4 nights/5 days. Prior to her stay, she was an excellent communicator and asked lots of good questions. During the visit, she kept in regular contact, sending photos and updates, and left the house in great shape. I appreciate that this is Blair's profession, and she takes this work seriously. I would happily book her again and highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“This is our second time using Sean, and once again he exceeded every expectation. He truly treats our dogs like they’re his own, and it’s obvious how much he cares about them. We never have to worry while we’re away because he provides thoughtful updates and gives our pups so much love and attention. This trip was especially challenging because we had some issues with a kitchen renovation, but Sean was incredibly flexible, accommodating, and easy to work with through it. We always come home to happy dogs and a house that’s just as clean as when we left. Finding someone that is trustworthy and dependable is rare. We can’t recommend Sean enough and will use him for every trip we take.”
About: Hi, I’m Katie. I’m a college student and I don’t have many years of experience, but I’m looking to gain some. I’m probably the biggest pet person you’ll ever meet and I hope I can help you and your dog or cat. I currently am a college student and I don’t have a summer job or anything so I’m just looking for something to do on the side and keep me busy and something that will fit my schedule while also enjoying time with animals I have a fenced in yard with a boxer half lab who is very friendly with medium to small size dogs and does well with cats. I’m looking to make sure the owner is happy but even more to make sure their pet is happy.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’m patient, caring, and treat every pet like family. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule working a part time job that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting while making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I have experience caring for my fur babies and understand how important it is to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs.
About: I have dog sitted for close friends and work colleagues during graduate school. I am still new to dog sitting but I take direction very well and I am willing to learn new things and meet new people! I am currently a pharmacy resident and work mainly during the weekdays from 7am-5pm and work every other weekend starting this upcoming July. My availability for June is open during the afternoons and most early morning for weekdays and open on weekends! I make a point to follow instructions to a T, and if there are opportunities to go above and beyond, I will do so. If dog sitting, I make sure to give the utmost attention to your pet while also meeting your expectations. As for house sitting, I like to treat a home as if it were my own: tidy and organized.
About: I am new to the area! I have had an extensive foster care history over the past 3 years prior to relocating. I adore all fur babies but have the most experience with elder and special needs pups. I love animals, big and small. I have my own sweetheart pup and live with two cat friends (plus a lizard). I work as a nurse. Medication administration is no problem at all if needed as well. Please help cure my foster withdrawal and let me be there for your furry family members! I currently am taking a break from full time nursing to focus on enjoying life more. With advance notice, I can be available most days/times. Don’t let that discourage same day requests though! I take the time to learn pet needs and enjoy getting to know their personalities. The approach I use for each animal is based on what they respond best to. I encourage families to share likes and dislikes of their animal friends to promote a low stress environment as they get to know me. I can administer medication, take them for car rides or walks if desired. Companionship in any form is something I look forward to providing them!!
“Brianna was so incredibly attentive to both our cat and dogs needs. Very communicative and kept us up to date on how they were doing throughout the weekend. Would absolutely recommend Brianna to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter!”
“Truly cannot say enough great things about booking with Kaitlynn. She was very communicative and sent photos daily. She helped our dogs feel safe while we were away, and that gave us peace of mind on our trip. We would absolutely book again!”

Angela did a fantastic job caring for my two cats, including administering insulin twice daily for my diabetic cat, maintaining dietary restrictions, and keeping her well-regulated! Both of my cats seemed super happy and relaxed with her, which is no small feat for the more sensitive one. I felt super comfortable leaving them with her and wouldn't hesitate to have her watch them again!
This is our second stay with Allie and we always love having her! We had a long trip out of state this time and it was nice to be able to leave our pups and home to someone we can trust. She’s a great communicator, polite, considerate, and great with our dogs. We’ll keep having her back as long as she’ll have us!
Blake did an amazing job caring for our animals while we are gone. He took the out to walk and was with them most of the days. He was very responsive to any texts I sent and he sent pictures frequently. He is responsible and dependable. We will definitely be using him again for future trips

FAQs for House Sitting - Claryville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Claryville on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,276 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Claryville. 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 Claryville 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 Claryville 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 Claryville 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.
