“Sydney was a godsend with our 2 dogs. She met them twice before our trip since we have a nervous pup & she put her right at ease. I've never seen our girl be so good with someone so quickly. We got regular updates & pictures & I know that our doggies were in the best hands while we were gone. Will 100% be contacting her again! She's the best!”
“Sabrina was amazing with my pups. Sabrina was very professional. Sabrina was quick to respond to messages and work with us on such short notice. If your looking for the perfect sitter, look no further than Sabrina.”
About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!
“Eli is the BEST! I had a lot of anxiety leaving my animals & he eased my mind greatly. He took the very best care of my crazy girl, Rayne & little sweety, Athena. I cannot thank him enough for the level understanding and care he put into being there for them(& myself lol)!! 10/10 recommend & will definitely request Eli for any further care. He listens to all of your wants/needs. Again, Eli is amazing & thank you so soo much!!! <3”

“Samantha was amazing! She was very professional and my dogs immediately took to her. I have never had someone watch my dogs at our house and I was very nervous but she put my mind at ease and I will definitely be using her for future bookings!”
“Taryn gave me piece of mind staying at my house and watching after my dog and foster cat. She provided regular updates which is always helpful. I would use her again”
About: I bring 7+ years of pet care experience, including working in a daycare setting where I cared for multiple dogs at once. I focus on safety, structure, fun playtime, and personalized attention to every during alone time. Making sure they feel comfortable, confident, and excited to see me. I am currently completing an externship for school, which takes place earlier in the day. I have open availability after 2pm on weekdays and flexible availability on weekends, making it easy to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended care as needed. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I closely follow feeding schedules, leash guidelines, and any special instructions provided. I maintain clean spaces, supervise all interactions, and communicate updates regularly so pet parents feel confident and at ease.
About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have house sat for at least three different people and took care of their pets! I’ve worked with senior dogs and puppies. I also have a part time job at a pet store so I have a decent amount of knowledge on pets and am more than happy to get things from the store for you! I have also administered medicine to a dog with health issues so I am comfortable administering medicine. I work part-time at a pet store! But I have time in between these things to drop in on pets and walk them, play with them, and even feed them. I’m happy to do whatever needs to be done’ My cat is older so she doesn’t play much anymore, but I’ve played with lots of kitties before. I’ve also played with dogs, big and small. My old home had a fenced in yard that I used to play with the dogs in. I no longer have that, but I love taking my own dog on long walks to burn off some of that energy!
“This is not our first Rover experience, but it was our best! Hannah was in constant contact with us texting pictures on walks, while eating and playing. She made us feel like our fur child was being well cared for. On returning, we found a happy and healthy boy and a house that was in great shape. Hannah will be our go to dog whisperer and sitter. Our Mowgli really felt at ease in our absence with her. Thank you, Hannah!!!”
“Natalie is amazing. She spent time getting to know our two dogs before house sitting and is a delight to chat with. She is dependable, responsible, respectful, and took the best care of the dogs (and the plants!). Very blessed to have found her and will absolutely rebook with her in the future.”
About: I love all animals, but especially dogs. I recently lost my first dog, mango, a little over a year ago. Spending time with other dogs is a gift to me because I love to me reminded of her through other dogs. I also have skills administering diabetes shots to senior dogs. I am currently a student, but am able to walk and check-in on M/W anytime before 1pm or after 4. I am also free on Fridays & Weekends for walks and check-ins. I like to play outdoor with dogs & do various enrinchment activities. I like long walks and dog parks as well! I’m comfortable with whatever the owner’s preference is.
About: I'm an experienced dog sitter and work at a veterinary clinic as a kennel attendant, where I care for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care, and I'll treat your pet like they're my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work as a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic and plan my schedule to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, and attentive care before and after work, as well as on my days off.

I have worked in the veterinary field/animal field my whole life and I am now working towards making pet sitting my full time job! I have looked after many different families pets ranging from dogs all the way to large farm animals so I am comfortable working with any additional animal you may need care for. I have experience with special needs pets such as dogs who are in diapers/wheelchairs, senior dogs, as well as shy/fearful dogs and cats.

I know being away from the pawrents can be scary for some pets so I will do my absolute best to make your pet as comfortable as possible while they are in my care! I strongly believe in following your pets normal daily routine to keep things running as smoothly and normally as possible. I do require meet and greets before watching any pets to make sure they are comfortable around me and so they have a familiar face instead of a total stranger coming into their home with them! I do like to have a day or two notice about watching your pet but I can do my best to make same day arrangements if needed!
About: I have been around dogs since I was born! I have two of my own fur children, whom both required a lot of attention and are very spoiled! They are also extremely well mannered and I have only self-trained them with patience and proper motivation. I have pet sat for friends and family several times informally, and found it to be so fun! I myself am a very detail oriented person, loves loving on animals, and understands how comforting it is to have the right person looking after your baby! I own my own business so my hours are flexible and can be arranged as needed! I already am caring for my own pets throughout each day! My dogs are both leashed when going out to potty in our yard. I also work on patience, obedience commands, and recall with them so that they have little daily disciplines. Both of my dogs are very treat oriented so it makes keeping them up to snuff with their manners easy! They also get regularly walked through our neighborhood, have an abundance of toys, and a very consistent meal time for breakfast and dinner!
“Alex was fabulous, highly recommend her! We didn't worry a bit about our dogs with her. She sent me pics of them daily. And she even sent my daughter pics of her "feeding" her fake fish. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Crown Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Crown Point on Rover is $85 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 847 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Crown Point. 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 Crown Point 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 Crown Point 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 Crown Point 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
