“Ayshah is truly one of the best sitters I’ve found on rover. I believe she goes above and beyond for both you as a pet parent AND your dog. So impressive, highly highly recommend.”
“Lois did a fabulous job taking care of Hugh, our large dog. She stayed in our home while we were on vacation and sent us multiple updates and pics of our pup, plus she left our home spotless! We will definitely be using her again for our future pet-sitting needs.”
“Kaylah was absolutely amazing with our dog, Shadow! From the moment we connected, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. She followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure Shadow’s routine stayed consistent, which was incredibly important to us. Throughout the stay, Kaylah provided updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Shadow was comfortable, happy, and receiving lots of attention and care. Knowing he was in such capable hands allowed us to fully enjoy our time away without worrying. We are so grateful for the love and attention Kaylah gave Shadow and would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly great with dogs, we highly recommend Kaylah!”
“Christian was absolutely one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! Our regular sitter was unavailable, and Christian may have just taken the top spot. He was incredibly responsive for a last-minute booking, and it was obvious from the start that he genuinely loves dogs. Our boys were very well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were with him. We would book with Christian again without hesitation!”
“Sean was very communicative and left our house super clean! He took such good care of our senior dog and also checked in our chickens every day. I would definitely recommend Sean to anyone who needs someone they trust to take care of their animals and home!”
“Sydney was great! She’s very personable and easy to interact with, which put me at ease since this was my first time using a pet sitter. Mimzy immediately felt comfortable with her and my shy cat warmed up to her, as well. Sydney was quick to respond to messages and sent daily picture updates. I’d recommend her to anyone and plan to use her again in the future.”
“James took care of my two dogs while I was away for almost two weeks. I missed my dogs so much and James was always responsive and sent me pics so I knew they were well taken care of. Glad to have found James on rover.”
“Deondre was a great dogsitter! I started a new job and needed to book last minute and he was so accommodating. I have a large pitbull with separation anxiety that doesn't get along with other animals and Deondre did great with him! Communication was great, he let me know when he took the dog on a walk and how things were going. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!!”
About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 12. I currently care for my own senior dog and kitten. Experience with dogs, cats and ferrets. Can give oral medication. I currently work full time Monday-Friday 8-430 from home. I'm available for early morning and nightly drop ins as well as weekends. I have reliable transportation and willing to try to work around your pets needs When I'm in your home your pets are my only priority and get all of my attention. I have an eye for details whether that's following unique directions for your pet, giving out medications, or ensuring that there are no escape artists.
About: I provide intentional, attentive care, treating every pet like my own. I don’t just “watch” pets; I engage with them, learn their routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have hands-on experience with puppy training (basic commands, leash manners, crate and potty training), along with public access and service animal training. I’m patient, consistent, and focused on building strong habits. I’m also experienced in senior pet care, including gentle handling, medication support, and slower-paced walks tailored to their comfort and mobility. * For cat care, I respect each cat’s personality, whether they’re social or more independent. I’m attentive to litter box cleanliness, feeding routines, enrichment, and creating a calm, stress-free environment. Whether your pet is high-energy or needs extra care, you can count on dependable service, clear communication, and regular updates with photos. Pet care fits naturally into my day since I work from home, which allows me to be present, flexible, and attentive. I’m able to maintain consistent schedules for feeding, walks, potty breaks, and playtime without long gaps in supervision. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets get more than just check-ins. They get companionship, engagement, and close monitoring. I can easily adjust to their routine, whether that means midday walks, reinforcing training, or providing extra comfort for senior pets. My schedule allows me to give pets the time, structure, and attention they deserve while keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos. Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with a secure fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks and play. Pets are always supervised, and I’m mindful of introductions, boundaries, and maintaining a low-stress atmosphere. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Not only do I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, triggers, and preferences, and I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, and pets in training. Whether it’s reinforcing routines, administering basic medications, or providing a safe, structured environment, I aim to give you complete peace of mind with regular updates and photos.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have cared for dogs and cats of all kinds. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or keeping them company while you’re away, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I easily follow routines and can stay overnight if needed to ensure your furry friend gets constant care and affection 🐕💛 I work full-time from 8 AM to 5 PM, but I’m available mornings until 7:30 and afternoons after 5:30 PM on weekdays and all day on weekends. I love spending my free time walking dogs, doing drop-in visits, or providing overnight care when needed. Your pet will always have my full attention and care 🐾💛 I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment. I carefully follow their routines, give them the attention they’re used to, and keep things calm and positive while you’re away. You can count on me to care for your furry friend with love and reliability 🐕💛

I’m a reliable and attentive caregiver with over a year of hands-on experience walking dogs and providing drop-in visits. I regularly care for a large dog named Juice (shown in my photos), so I’m confident handling bigger breeds and different energy levels.

What I Offer: • Comfortable with small, medium & large dogs • Experience with daily walking & feeding routines • Patient with shy or anxious pups • Active walker with flexible weekday availability • Fast communication + photo updates • Safety-focused and dependable I respond quickly and would love to meet you and your pup feel free to message me with any questions! I work part-time as a model, and have a flexible schedule, so I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. Your fur babies will get lots of love, playtime, and attention. I’m experienced in supervising pets during active play and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’m very familiar with providing care tailored to different needs and personalities. I’ll treat your furry friends like family!
“Arnoldo has watched my dog a few times now and is the perfect sitter for him. Because Ernie has separation anxiety, he requires house sitting while I run errands. Arnoldo is super communicative and shares updates throughout his stay, which always gives me peace of mind. Will definitely continue to book Arnoldo!”
“Dan was fantastic with our two pups! They were very happy and well taken care of when we got home and the house was spotless. Dan sent pictures and updates which was very appreciated. We will absolutely use Dan again!”
“She was FANTASTIC! I’m an anxious dog mom with a senior girl that also has an injury, and Kasianay took such good care of her. Frequent updates and top notch communication. Will absolutely book her again (and have already recommended her to friends).”
“Tevin quickly responded to my last minute request for an in-house sitter. He was excellent w my animals— a slightly reactive senior dog & scaredy cat kitty. He was communicative and he sent lots of pics & videos. The house was all in order when I returned home & he had even started a laundry load of towels which I’m very appreciative of. All in all Tevin was excellent & I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again!”

Kaylah was absolutely amazing with our dog, Shadow! From the moment we connected, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. She followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure Shadow’s routine stayed consistent, which was incredibly important to us. Throughout the stay, Kaylah provided updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Shadow was comfortable, happy, and receiving lots of attention and care. Knowing he was in such capable hands allowed us to fully enjoy our time away without worrying. We are so grateful for the love and attention Kaylah gave Shadow and would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly great with dogs, we highly recommend Kaylah!
I would certainly recommend Chloe! She’s been great with my guy, a French Mastiff, who can be uneasy with new people and she’s been incredible handling him. She communicates before, during, and after all her visits. If you need help with your pup, definitely reach out to Chloe!
Christian was an absolute five-star pet sitter for us. Honestly, I think our pets were disappointed when we came home. From the start, he made vacation feel completely stress-free. We got regular updates, photos, and could tell immediately that Zoe, Chaco, and Folly were genuinely comfortable around him (which is saying a lot, because our pets all have very strong opinions and zero shame about expressing them). He handled the chaos perfectly: * Zoe’s neighborhood surveillance duties * Chaco’s dramatic commentary on literally everything * Folly ruling the house like a tiny dictator The house was great, the pets were happy, and we never once had that “I should probably check in again…” anxiety that usually comes with traveling. Christian is reliable, communicative, easygoing, and clearly great with animals. We’d trust him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend — unless you need him during one of our future trips. 🙂
Mia is awesome! She was truly a lifesaver when I needed someone to watch my puppy. She made me feel at ease since we first met her and I knew my Eevie was in good hands. Mia provided me updates and pictures throughout the evening. I would definitely recommend Mia to anyone, she is truly great.
Lina was great!! She took care of my dog and cat while I went to the beach for a few days. It was so nice to be able to relax and not worry about my little ones. She communicated often and let me know that they were doing well and that everything was OK at the house. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future! It’s great to know that there are people like her out there! A+++++
I can’t say enough great things about Jess! From the moment she met Barry and Winnie, I knew my pups were in loving, capable hands. She went above and beyond—daily walks, cuddle sessions, photo updates, and so much thoughtful attention to all their quirky little habits. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and a spotless house. Jess gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Barry and Winnie clearly adored her (I’m pretty sure they were a little sad to see her go!). If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets and home like her own, Jess is the one. Truly exceptional! 🐾💛

FAQs for House Sitting - College Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in College Park on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 4,337 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across College Park. 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 College Park 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 College Park 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 College Park 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in College Park. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
