“Rose took FANTASTIC care of both our dogs and house. Thanks Rose. Not sure they were happy to see us come home! She sent us photos each day we were away, and our house looked better when we got home then when we departed :-) Will definitely be reaching out to Rose for her care again”
“Elisha was great. She wasn't intimidated by Arlo's epilepsy which was a huge relief to me. She seemed immediately at ease with the boys and they with her. When I got home my dogs were calm, happy and not anxious so I could tell that they were indeed comfortable with her. I will definitely book with Elisha again.”
“Chana did an excellent job taking care of my three dogs! She stayed in contact to let us know how things were going and provided us the reassurance that our dogs were in good hands! Thanks Chana! As this experience made our vacation that much better….”
“Emily watched our dog Mouse for 16 days while we were halfway around the world. This was the longest we had ever been away from him and the farthest. We were a little nervous going into it but Emily made us feel so at ease. She sent updates every day usually multiple times a day. She would also tailor the timing of her updates to the timezone we were in which was much appreciated as well. We could tell Mouse was well taken care of and that she gave him a lot of love. We can’t wait to work with her again!”
“Grettel has been amazing!! Scout is a very nervous and anxious dog and as soon as Grettel and Scout met I knew that Scout was going to be comfortable with Grettel! It only took him about 10 minutes to relax, which is huge for Scout!! She is also very thorough, which puts us at ease. She also provides video and pics of him while we are away! :) ”
“Lee is the best! He stayed with and cared for our two labradors for a week while we went to Florida. Our girls love him and thoroughly enjoyed their time with Lee. He also kept the house spotless and made sure it was clean for us upon our return. I think the dogs appreciated his musical talents too while we were away. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone in need of a sitter, dog walker, or house stay with their pets. They would be well-loved and cared for with Lee!”
“I can't say enough about my experience with Cassandra! She was amazing with Antonio, kept him busy and happy. We received many pictures and videos which made our trip so much better knowing he was happy! I would recommend Cassandra to anyone looking to have a reliable, loving and competent dog sitter. Cassandra stayed at the house while we were gone and left things immaculate! We will be using her for our next trip. Thank you”
“Katrina and her boyfriend, Ken, were very communicative, kind, and genuinely loved animals. Our dog, Jack, is a nervous boy, but they did the best they could in calming his nerves, and putting in the effort to gain his trust. I highly recommend!”
“Shelby was excellent with our dog. She asked plenty of questions to make sure she took the best care of Bella, sent us plenty of updates, and made sure Bella was comfortable at all times. We came home to a very happy pup. Would definitely recommend Shelby.”
“Karla is a gentle and kind animal whisperer. Our pup was immediately calmed by her energy. From his daily med routine, to even feeding him by hand when he put up a “my humans are traveling fight” she cared for him with grace and love. AND we got daily pics.”
“Allie was great! She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos of all my dogs. She truly went above and beyond in every sense to make sure my dogs were well cared for and was attentive to every little detail. I would absolutely recommend Allie to anyone. I really felt good that my dogs were in good hands all day.”
“Sophia was so kind, and easy to communicate with. She was very proactive in scheduling our meet and greet and the actual visit. My dog was instantly comfortable with her and I knew right away that he’d be in good hands. She sent us sweet photos throughout her time with him, and took great care of our home. Will absolutely book her again!”
“Maggie is a godsend. I never worry about Marley when she’s with him. She is attentive and always sends updates and pictures. Marley loves her and is always content and happy when she’s with him. We love you Maggie 😽”

Macy is very responsible, kind, and sweet. Our pup Peach absolutely loves her. Macy kept us in the loop with adorable pictures and clear updates. She’s a wonderful communicator and very trustworthy. She even left our home better than she found it. Would highly recommend her to anyone.
It was our first time working with Ady and she was great to work with! She was flexible with our plans, communicated well, and took excellent care of our little pup! You can tell how much she loves dogs and we felt great leaving our 6 year old chihuahua in her care. We already have another pet sit booked!
I can't say enough great things about Katherine — we've booked her several times to stay with our girl, Penelope. Most recently, she watched both the house and Penelope while we were away for the holiday break. The entire week we felt totally at ease having Katherine there, and really appreciated her thoughtful and thorough communication.. not to mention Penelope seems to really love having her around, too. We'll happily continue to hire Katherine, can't recommend her enough.
Kira is *fantastic*! Super communicative and friendly, and she took amazing care of our pets and house while we were away. During our trip, we were thrilled to get photos of our very shy cat hanging out with Kira (a rare occurrence for a petsitter), and our very social, attention-loving dog was in great spirits when we got home. We couldn't believe the fresh and clean house we returned home to! We loved having Kira, and will enthusiastically invite her back!
Bre'ahna was very professional in her approach to house sitting and caring for my dog. She was detailed, responsive and reliable. My dog had been very unhappy after staying at a kennel that I knew well and they took good care of him. But he's a rescue with separation anxiety so I decided to try Rover. When I returned, he seemed happy and not clingy and anxious as he had in the past. Additionally, my house was in good shape, my plants watered and Bre'ahna even washed her sheets for me. I would highly recommend her to take care of your dog in your home.
We had such a great experience with Daniela! They were incredibly communicative, sending us lots of photo updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. Cricket loved spending time with them and was clearly well cared for. Daniela went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. We would happily book with Daniela again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Connelly on Rover is $94.35 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 496 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Connelly. 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 Connelly 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 Connelly 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 Connelly 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 Connelly. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
