Even though Bug was extremely difficulty taking her pills, Keira displayed a ton of patience with our pup. I could not recommend her enough!!”

About: I’ve cared for many dogs and cats over the years with varying personality and behavior traits, including pets with special needs and disabilities. I have deep respect and appreciation for animals and for the unconditional love that they provide to their families. By providing compassion and affection at each animal’s own pace, I try to bond with each animal I care for and earn their trust as quickly as possible. I believe that our pets are members of the family. Caring for a dog or cat is just as important as caring for a child, and they deserve lots of love, respect, and attention. I also care for our family dogs, Jake and Lila, elderly Labrador Retriever mixes. We rescued both dogs when they were middle-aged. Jake is a tripod with arthritis and kidney disease, Lila has PTSD from bad experiences with humans in the past, and so they require a little extra love and attention. I know what it feels like to deeply love our family pets and want the very best care for them. I also know it is very difficult to leave your pet, even for a short time, and I genuinely care about providing you and your pet the best experiences possible to help alleviate the difficulty. Currently, I am home from college for the summer, and available throughout the week and have a very flexible schedule. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I believe there are three main things to focus on when caring for a pet: respect, leadership and compassion. I see the animals we love as just another member of the family, thus treating them with respect, allowing them to be around for dinner or other family activity, treating them when they deserve it or simply because they enjoy it, etc. With that, it’s also important to balance that with being a good owner and disciplining them when necessary. You can’t reward bad behavior, however you must do it with a certain kind authority. Degrading or harming an animal is beneficial to no one. Finally, just showing love whenever possible, i.e petting, playing, giving them treats when they do something remarkable, etc. It’s important to reassure the animal of your love and care.

“This was our first time booking with Selina. We had a meet and greet prior to the sitting time. And, we knew at that time that she was the sitter for us. During our time away, Selina kept us informed and sent pictures. She even had a sighting or two of one of our kitties who normally hides from the world when we are away. Selina cleaned up after the cats eating sessions and kept our flowers alive. All of our cats were very happy in Selina's care and we will be booking again. Thank you Selina!”

She was diligent in keeping to a schedule and followed all our instructions carefully. She was in contact with us 3-4 times a day with photos and detailed updates. I really appreciated that Bristol stripped the bed, swept the floor, and emptied the trash before we got home! She's a real gem. We have already booked for another pet sitting job!”

“From our first meeting with Perry, we knew our beloved dog and cat were in great hands. Perry was extremely sweet, gentle and thorough caring for our senior dog and spent time getting to know our shy kitty, Eddie. Perry’s communication is excellent. She sent us lots of pictures and videos. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog and cat were not just walked and fed, but loved on. Our home was kept tidy as well. She is definitely on our favorites list!”

Fatima was great taking care of our pup and kitty while we were away for the week. She made sure both Bruno and Bria were fed and had water while also showing them attention. She was also respectful of our home and cleaned up after herself while house sitting. I would recommend Fatima to others if you're in need of someone to take care of your pets while away. I do wish she provided a few more photos - we received 1 photo of Bruno and Bria each evening, though I suppose that is something we could have requested.

We could not be more grateful for Lindsey! She sat for our pup for four nights in our house and I would not hesitate to book her again. She was able to get my shy and nervous pup to settle and get comfortable quickly. She sent regular photos and daily updates and she left the place cleaner than when she got here. This was our first trip away without our pup and my mind was at ease throughout, knowing that he was in great hands. Thank you so much Lindsey!!

Hailey truly went above and beyond watching my pup while we were away at the beach! Initial introduction was warm and could trust she'd be attentive and affectionate towards him.

She even made a handwritten note and Polaroid photo of my doggo which I will cherish. Very kind lady who will treat your pet great, highly recommend

Mo was awesome. He showed up on time, was friendly, left our home as it was when we left, and most importantly, our pets didn't act as if they missed us when we returned. He has his own transportation and has a flexible schedule that could potentially make him more accessible to you and your pet's needs. We booked pretty last-minute, and Mo was very accommodating. We will hire him again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Comptons Corner

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Comptons Corner is $34 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 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 9,360 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Comptons Corner. 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 Comptons Corner 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 Comptons Corner 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 Comptons Corner 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Comptons Corner. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
