About: Hi, my name is Shaima and I’ve had dogs my whole life! Big and small, to fluffy or almost hairless. I’ve been training my own dogs since the young age of 10, with the help of dog training tv shows! Also, I’ve been dog sitting my sisters two beautiful pit bulls for years, as she’s an avid traveler. I’m always up for whatever your dogs want to do! They want to play fetch? Awesome. Want to go for a walk? Be my guest. Nap time? You can never take too many naps. I’m sure I can give your special little pup the most love and attention. I never met a dog I didn’t love! I hope you will pick me to care for your beloved four legged friends.
“Katelyn is one of the most trustworthy people I have ever met. She has house sat for us which included taking care of our 7 year old Great Dane and 11 month old Golden Retriever. She followed every instruction given and kept in communication with us throughout our trip. She was extremely respectful to our home and left it in better condition than we had left it. It was very important to us to have our pets stay in the comfort of our own home, as boarding kennels can be stressful. Being able to have Katelyn stay at our home at an affordable rate gave us so much peace of mind. She loved our animals like her own and we will most definitely be using and recommending her services again in the future!”
“We are so appreciative for Whitney and the wonderful care she provided for our 2 dogs! The most stressful part of vacation planning for us is finding a dog sitter. This was our first time using a service, and we couldn't be more pleased! Whitney is a thoughtful and compassionate professional! She provided updates and pictures during our 2 week vacation, which was reassuring. We knew our dogs were in good hands. 10/10 recommend!”
“Priscilla did a great job with our high energy puppy! She listened to all of our concerns and took great care of her and her needs while we were away. We would recommend her services and use her again!”
“Christina was very professional from the start with the meet and greet. She kept the house clean and left it in better shape than when I left. My boys looked so happy with her in the pictures she sent so I knew they were being well taken care of.”
“Kaitlyn was a wonderful sitter. As a first experience with a cat sitting service, everything could not have gone more smoothly. Kaitlyn quickly responded to all my inquires before and during her house sitting. She provided pictures and positive feedback whenever I requested an update. My 2 little girls were obviously happy and well taken care of during her stay. I highly recommend her!”
“Mari did such a good with Bailey! Very responsive, sent us updates when we asked, and she sent us photos and fun videos of our girl. We really appreciated her giving our girl so much love and attention over the Thanksgiving holiday. We absolutely recommend her!”
“Karla is amazing! I am so thankful we found someone we can trust to stay at our home and watch our dog when we travel. She sends picture updates, is great with communication, spoils our girl while we are gone, and keeps our home fresh for when we return! Highly recommend her 😊”
“Our two pups liked Kimberly from the moment she walked thru the front door. We felt very comfortable having her at our home. When we returned the dogs were happy and our home was spotless. Very pleased”
“Sherri went above and beyond for our fur babies while we were away. It’s truly hard for us to feel at ease when leaving them because they are like our kids, but we felt so comfortable with Sherri. She sent more updates and photos in the first evening than most sitters have sent us for whole trips! We are already planning to book Sherri again and would highly recommend her.”
“Jessica is fantastic. She is caring towards our animals and I had full trust that everything would go as planned. Communication was great and I would recommend without hesitation. We will definitely have her back very soon!”
“Amazing experience with Vicki!! Her communication was great, she was patient & sweet with my 3 crazy dogs, and left our house cleaner than we left it. Thank you ? would definitely recommend!”
“We are so fortunate to have found Jessica. Our big dogs did great while we were out of town. We were kept updated and she took great care of our home and gentle giants while we were away.”
“Riley responded right away to my request to sit in our home with our puppy. He has separation anxiety and she knew how to handle him. She stopped by a couple of days ahead to learn our routine. She was very responsive and communicated when she would arrive before visiting. We would use Riley again as our sitter”
About: I have over 5 years of experience providing dependable dog sitting, pet care, and house sitting services. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including puppies and senior pets. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, bathing, administering basic care, maintaining routines, and ensuring homes stay clean, safe, and secure while owners are away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. I work PRN with a local hospital , which allows me to make my own schedule, and I’m a full-time online student who can complete coursework anywhere. This flexibility means I’m able to provide consistent attention, maintain routines, and be present for pets and homes throughout the day, including overnight stays. I care for pets in their homes as if they were my own. I stick closely to their usual routines, making sure they’re fed on time, exercised, played with, and given lots of love and attention. I keep homes tidy and safe, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and comfortable.
“We had such a great experience with Victoria! She did an amazing job taking care of our girls — they were so happy, calm, and relaxed when we got home, which says everything. She communicated extremely well the entire time, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. On top of that, she left the house spotless and super clean, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

Whitney watched my kittens overnight at my house while I was away and I was so happy with the care they received! She made it so easy to feel comfortable with her not only providing great care to the kittens, but having her stay in my home. Will definitely be using Whitney for any future cat sitting needs. 🙂

FAQs for House Sitting - Coram
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Coram on Rover is $77.7 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 149 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Coram. 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 Coram 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 Coram 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 Coram 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 Coram. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
