“Hannah did a great job taking care of our dog for a few days while we were away! She stayed in our home and left the place super clean and we came home to a happy dog! She communicated with us very well and was very professional! Would love to have her back again to care for our dog on our next trip!”
“Beverly was awesome. This was the first time we were away from our 150lb mastiff puppy and we were worried about him. Bev made us very comfortable during the meet and greet and communicated with us up until the the sit started to ensure she had all the details and care instructions. On the day of the sit she showed up right on time and settled in before we had to leave, so the puppies would get used to her being in the house. During the next few days she took wonderful care of our furbabies. She played with them and cuddled with them when they were moping and was persistent about trying to get them to eat. Pretty soon they were following her around everywhere. She sent us a lot of pictures of them and the house was immaculately clean when we got back. We would love for her to care for our babies again in the future.”
“Alex is the best! We truly appreciated the photos and updates and felt very secure with Alex’s confident and caring approach. Our home was left in pristine condition and our dogs were content and relaxed! Highly recommend Alex, especially if you have dogs who can be a little slow to warm up to new people.”
“Sadie was so sweet when we met her, and she loved our pups and they definitely loved her! We got a daily picture of our pups which was really nice. Definitely recommend Sadie if you’re looking for a dog sitter! We look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Stefanie was amazing. She sent daily updates and was friendly and genuinely seemed to enjoy taking care of our dog. We will book her again, for sure, if she is available. Thanks Stefanie!”
“Brooke is wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and she made the whole process so easy and comfortable. She is very friendly and she took such great care of our big, energetic puppy! She kept us updated with photos and she helped follow our routine so our dog barely noticed we were gone. We will definitely use Brooke again, and recommend her to others.”
“I can't say enough how happy my husband and I are to have met Sabrina. We can finally travel again without worrying (too much) about our babies. I'd highly recommend booking with Sabrina.”
“Kaitlyn pet/house sat for us recently, and we are so grateful for her help. She kept us regularly informed of our babies and was comfortable asking questions. It was wonderful knowing we had someone we could trust taking care of our critters!”
“McKayla is great. She listened to the instructions I have for my dog which put me at ease. She also took photos and communicated throughout the day. She really cares about your animals and I could tell they were happy. I would definitely recommend her and will have to ask her back!”
“Amanda was sweet, prompt, and accommodating. She came in and handled Athena perfectly from the very beginning and continued to communicate throughout. My dog absolutely adored her and I would highly recommend ❤️”
About: 1) Experienced with dogs of all personalities and temperaments through several years of volunteering at Dogtown Rescue, where I learned how to safely handle dogs with different energy levels, behaviors, and needs. 2) Safety is always my top priority. I’m extremely attentive on walks and proactively avoid situations that could cause stress or unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs. 3) Detail-oriented and careful. Before every walk, I check that harnesses, collars, and leashes are properly fitted and secure to help keep your pet safe. 4) Patient and calm approach. I understand that every dog is different and take the time to make them feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. 5) I treat every pet like my own, providing dependable, loving care while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in good hands. I currently have a hybrid job so I am able to provide care on various days and various times throughout the week. I also have flexibility weekends as I am often local. Prior to letting a dog out, I will always double check that fences and gates are properly closed. Additionally, prior to walks I always ensure that harnesses and leashes are properly working.
“Gabrielle was absolutely fantastic! She was incredibly kind, respectful and attentive to every detail. She asked thoughtful and important questions, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my dogs in her care. My dogs absolutely loved her! She was early for both our meet and greet and her visit, and her communication and reliability were amazing. I truly couldn’t rate her highly enough and look forward to having her watch my fur babies again!”
“We needed an emergency sitter for our puppy Pete who is recovering from surgery and Katryna came to the rescue. She was conscientious and very kind with our little guy and we would definitely have her watch him again.”
“Meghan is awesome! She clearly took amazing care not only our pets (a dog and a cat) for the nearly two weeks we were on vacation, but our home was somehow cleaner than when we left! She sent daily updates, let us know if anything was unusual, and was overall an excellent communicator and a delight to chat with! We highly recommend Meghan and will definitely be booking her again the future.”
About: I have been volunteering in a local animal shelter for about 6 months and after graduating from the University of Pittsburgh I am looking to commit more time to helping out the people and pets in my community! In the shelter I helped admitted lost animals and I have experience walking and taking dogs out for field trips. During field trips I would walk dogs through frick park, relax on my porch, and take them to get a pup cup! I loved being able to help out the dogs and give them the love they deserve! I have passed the Fear Free shelter program and have experience with dog walking as well as caring for my family’s own cat and dog. I am excited to start this new journey! I currently work from home 9-5 in the Doylestown area. I’m an active adult who already likes to walk throughout my day and would love to add a dog friend to that! I would have time at lunch, as well as before or after work to care for your dog. My lunch is flexible so I can work around you! On weekends I have open availability. In the middle of work days I would not be able to provide more than 30 minutes walking or spending time with your dog, but before/after week days and during weekends I could spent up to and hour with your dog to give them extra love! In my client’s home I would care for the pet just as you would! I would ask for and follow your instructions on how you would like your pet cared for and would of course give him or her lots of love!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Colmar
Amy has been our go-to dog and house sitter for years. She is fantastic! One of our dogs can be a little quirky with new people but he warmed up to Amy right away. On our recent vacay, she took care of our dogs, feeding the fish in our pond, and the stray cat that comes round twice a day for meals. She is the best!
Stefanie is fantastic. She had stayed over to watch our dog on multiple occasions. She is a great communicator, prompt, and provides regular updates. Everything is always in good order and knowing she is there provides peace of mind. We’ve already rebooked and will continue to work with her regularly.
Kim was amazing with our 2 dogs, one a puppy, while we were away for 2 weeks! She stayed in constant contact with us, sending daily pictures and updates. We even had to troubleshoot a few situations, and Kim was super flexible when it came to managing our spirited dogs! I highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her services for our next vacation!
We had a great experience with Daisy. As a first time user of Rover services, we weren’t sure what to expect but Daisy put us as ease right away. She was responsive, punctual, and detailed in her questions. She took good care of our pets and home. Thank you, Daisy!
Hannah did a great job taking care of our dog for a few days while we were away! She stayed in our home and left the place super clean and we came home to a happy dog! She communicated with us very well and was very professional! Would love to have her back again to care for our dog on our next trip!
We are so grateful to have found Mallory to help with our pup! I can’t recommend her enough! She was so wonderful and attentive with our dog and kept us updated the whole time we were away with photos, videos, and messages. We will definitely be booking her again 😊🐶 thank you so much!

FAQs for House Sitting - Colmar
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Colmar on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,575 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Colmar. 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 Colmar 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 Colmar 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 Colmar 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 Colmar. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
