About: I've taken care of, dogs all my life, ranging from puppies to seniors. Friends and family have counted on me watching their pets when they are away or need a quick walk/play. I have a flexible work schedule where I can work from home or be on the road(local) so your pet will not be alone for a few hours max. I am open to watching a dog over nights and weekends. I have a partially fenced in yard that I can block an exit. If I am watching at my home I will have them on leash in the back yard and be outside playing with them. My home is Located in Conshohocken so it is very walkable on the streets and have easy access to the Schuylkill River Trail. I live across from a park where I am able take your dog for a long walk as well. When I watch at a clients home I am respectful, clean, and make sure I leave it better than when I arrived.
“Nico is the absolute best! Our plans changed last minute and he was so understanding. Our pups have the best time when Nico is here and he gives all the cuddles, playing and love they need.”

About: Hi! It’s nice to meet you and your pets. I have been pet sitting for over 11 years for all my neighbors and coworkers. I love to meet all different types of pups and cats I’m currently working full time, however my schedule is able to be worked around the pets and what their needs are. I always make sure that the pets are taken care of first and if I can’t do it, then I always let you know in advance. I will always love to take a walk with the pets or spend one on one time playing with them. I love to bond with any animal

“I truly can’t recommend her enough! She stepped in at the last minute when I needed a sitter for a girls’ weekend, and from the second she met my dog, Aspen, I knew I had found the right person. Aspen instantly felt comfortable with her, and it was obvious the feeling was mutual. Watching him warm up to her so quickly put my mind at ease. As a first time dog mom, leaving Aspen with someone in my home for the very first time was incredibly nerve-racking. She completely exceeded my expectations. She kept me updated throughout the entire stay with lots of messages and pictures, which helped me relax and actually enjoy my trip. She even took Aspen out for a pup cup, and that small gesture meant so much because it showed how much she genuinely cared for him. When I came home, Aspen was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. She treated him like family, and that’s all any pet parent could ask for. If you’re looking for someone who is kind, dependable, communicative, and will love your pet as if they’re her own, look no further. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for making Aspen’s first sitting experience—and mine—such an amazing one!”

“Angelica is absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our two pups, even went on long walks with them. She also took great care of our home. We are very grateful.”

“Sarah was amazing. She is helpful, kind, and creative. My newly adopted dog is struggling with separation anxiety; knowing I could trust Sarah to keep him engaged and happy while I was out of the house was such a relief.”

“Taylor was truly incredible! We felt so comfortable leaving our four pets with her, and she handled them all perfectly! Some of them were on medication and had specific feeding instructions, which she perfectly handled. Our animals loved her instantly-even our shy cat was giving her cuddles the second day! She took care of our house and went above and beyond cleaning up litter and removing snow! I can’t recommend her enough”

“Pepper took to Bill right away. He is respectful, responsive, and goes the extra mile. Even stripped the bed he slept in and started the sheets in the laundry. Thank you Bill!”


About: Hi! Long time lover of dogs! While I love all types of dogs, my parents were big fans of Yorkshire terriers and Poodles. We've had many over the years! During the week, I work in healthcare in the hospital setting. Many of my work skills translate to giving your pup the best care! I have a calm demeanor in high-stress or emergency situations and I'm trained in safety, hygiene, and detail-oriented care. I've watched dogs periodically for friends and family over the years both in my own home and in theirs! Hope to meet your pup soon! I currently work full time during the week. I'm pretty available on the weekends where I am mostly relaxing, catching up on house chores and running errands - but very available. During the week I am available for evening walks! I do have a fenced in yard. I have a door that prevents dogs from venturing into the bedrooms and basement when I'm not home.
“Ali is a delight! She took great care of my dog and my house while I was away. I could tell that my dog was very happy and had a great time on their daily walks. Ali is also able to handle special requests as my dog has some anxiety and needed some extra attention. She also was great at providing updates. Highly recommend Ali!”


“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”

“Hannah was awesome! She was able to accommodate a last minute booking, including setting up a meet and greet in advance of my departure. During the weekend she gave cute updates and pictures, most of which included my needy pug happily curled up in her lap. Very appreciative!”


“Dana was so great with Sherlock! He easily handled all of his medication needs. He sent the funniest updates and Sherlock loved all of the cuddles. Its not easy to find someone who can match Sherlock's regular schedule of having someone home during the day so I was very happy we found Dana. We will definitely use him again!”

“Shannon was amazing with our dogs!! When she got here she discovered one of our dogs was having pretty bad gastrointestinal distress. She had a few accidents around the house. Shannon went WAY above and beyond to clean up the mess and still stay to take care of the dogs for the night. Truly grateful for Shannon. She us very kind, professional, and our dogs loved her.”

“Anthony stayed with my dog for about two weeks while I was out of town. He had great communication the entire time and took good care of my dog and my house. I recommend Anthony and will continue to request him when I need a petsitter!”

“Absolutely best rating possible! Our baby is a lot of work and requires someone super capable of keeping our dog active and understanding his needs. She kept house clean, followed all tips, and was super communicative. Meechy was so happy to get snuggles and feel safe all week :)”

Joanne is absolutely excellent! She is kind, communicative, and did a great job with our dog. She followed all care instructions and took excellent care of our dog while we were away. We got frequent updates and felt so at ease with her watching our dog. When we returned home, our dog seemed so happy, calm, and relaxed. An absolute pleasure to work with, we look forward to hiring Joanne again!

Stephanie was such an amazing sitter. She was extremely communicative and easy to get ahold of at all times. Penny looked like she had a blast during her stay, and Stephanie went above and beyond helping around the house while I was gone. We will absolutely use her again!!

Anna was a pleasure to work with! Super straight forward and easy to set up visits! She listened to all tips and tricks with our very lovely puppy who is QUITE the handful! Having someone who can take care of a playful, strong, and high energy dog while still showing them love and care is a special kind of pet caregiver! Thank you!

We absolutely loved having Ava watch our pups while we were gone for the day. She arrived on time (even with a last minute ask from us), sent lots of pictures and spoiled our pups with lots of love. 100% recommend Ava and we will use her pet sitting services again! Thanks Ava! :)

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Carolynn. She stayed the weekend with our girls and gave us wonderful detailed updates and the best pictures. Our dogs are a pair of opposites - one a demanding diva, the other very relaxed and easy going and handled both with care. We felt so good being away and knowing they were in such great hands. Thank you again, Carolynn!

Wow- Luisa took the absolute BEST care of my doggies! She walked them, hung out with them in our backyard, took them for adventures and even got them special toys and treats! She was an exceptional dog sitter with great communication, plenty of pictures and so much love for our dogs! They had the best time with Luisa!

Emre house/dog sat for our two dogs for the first time this week. One of our dogs requires medication and has separation anxiety. Emre took extremely good care of our boys, with frequent updates and photos. He was respectful of our home as well. May have even left it cleaner than when he arrived! We will 100% have Emre help us out in the future and highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Connaughtown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Connaughtown 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 5,646 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Connaughtown. 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 Connaughtown 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 Connaughtown 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 Connaughtown 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.
