“Brittany watched our dog, Luna, for a full week while we were away. Luna can be insecure and protective and doesn’t always warm up easily to new people, but Brittany went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable. She came over several times before the booking to get to know Luna, which made a huge difference. While we were away, Brittany sent plenty of photos, bonded beautifully with Luna, and even brought in our mail and packages. She is a wonderful find for anyone who wants peace of mind knowing their pet is truly well cared for.”
About: Erin, lifelong dog owner (since 2001!), enjoys providing loving care and adventurous walks. Walks her Siberian Husky, Skylar, daily and is passionate about canine companionship. I love taking long walks and enjoying the outdoors. I just moved back to the tri-state area and I currently have a very open schedule for dog walking and pet sitting. * In my client's home: I stick to their pet's routine as much as possible to minimize stress. This includes feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and medication (if applicable). I also provide lots of love and cuddles to keep your furry friend happy! * I can't wait to meet your pet and learn about their unique personality!
“Joe is caring and was very focused on the needs of our dogs. He stayed with them for 10 days in our home and was in constant communication, sending plenty of pictures. He followed the entire daily routine of the dogs and you could tell the dogs became attached to him. :) He respected the house rules and even did the laundry at the end before leaving. Thanks for a great experience!”
“Courtney was an absolute pleasure! She was incredibly reliable and kept us informed about how Sadie, Sam and Finn were eating, sleeping…..and even how they were missing us. Courtney would send us morning and evening updates with photos and texts. We would highly recommend her!”
About: I've owned and cared for animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to snakes and chinchillas. My fur babies are everything to me - I even have them forever tatted on me! My current English bulldog, Stella, is half-blind and all crazy. She is a protector and lover of my two girls, who have known and grown up with animals their whole lives. While a sweetheart, she remains separate from my boarded friends. I have experience caring for senior animals, shy and timid babies with, and large breed guardian dogs. I also enjoy volunteering at two of our local animal shelters and am raising a future veterinarian. I believe animals are the purest form of love and require nothing less in return. Whether my own or yours, you can trust that I'll care for them all the same ♥️ I'm available most days of the week and weekends. Pet care and motherhood are my full-time roles, and my daughter may often accompany me on my walks. My home has large yard and a separate family area where my boarded friends can have their own quiet, private space to hang out with me: hang on the couch, watch TV, or play outside. I have a large crate if needed and plenty of space.
“Becky was absolutely amazing with our 10-year-old dog while we were away for a week. She gave our dog her medication reliably and sent us frequent updates and photos. This was our first time leaving Nala with someone who was not our family or friends but Becky took care of our girl like family. On top of that, she went above and beyond by caring for our home and helping with things like bringing in our packages while away. We came back to a happy, healthy pup and a clean home—couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: Surrounded by doggy siblings growing up and now as an auntie to my nieces and nephews, I love to care for your furry children! Your pets will be in great hands. I currently work in a hybrid schedule at my 9-5. I enjoy caring for doggy friends on the weekends and before and after work when needed. I am constantly on top of making sure pets feel at home and comfortable in a new space. I will also make sure pets feel safe and loved when in their own space.
About: Hi! I’m Jess, and if my friends had to describe me, they’d probably say I’m the human version of a golden retriever friendly, energetic, loyal, and always excited to make new friends (especially the furry kind!). While I haven’t owned a dog myself, I’ve spent years helping care for dogs belonging to family, friends, and many of my personal training clients. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a personal trainer and health coach, I’m very active, dependable, and attentive to details. I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and care while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I would be honored to be that person for your furry family member. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine right now. I currently have a flexible schedule and am looking to stay active and productive throughout the summer while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love animals and see pet sitting and dog walking as an opportunity to help both pets and their owners. I know many people have vacations, family events, long workdays, and summer plans, and it can be stressful worrying about leaving a beloved pet behind. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so pet parents can enjoy their time away with peace of mind, knowing their furry family member is getting plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection. As someone who is active, responsible, and caring, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I look forward to helping families this summer while building meaningful connections with both pets and their owners. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of exercise, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. As a personal trainer and health coach, I lead an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for dogs who enjoy walks and playtime. I also understand how important pets are to their families, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾💛
About: Ive taken care of pets since I was 13 years old! I have taken a passion in all animals especially dogs and cats! I had 6 cats growing up and 2 dogs! So I have been exposed to dogs and cats of all ages and I am very familiar with what they are capable of and how to provide the proper nurturing and care! I am currently home everyday while my boyfriend is in school, so I have all the time in the world to spend with some cute furry friends I have a spacious apartment with a crate if necessary and easy access to the dog park and extra litter and boxes for cats if needed! I also have extra water bowls and toys to occupy!
“Thank you Julia for taking such good care of Foxy! Once again, we came home to a clean house and a happy dog. Say no more! Julia is so reliable Consistent and conscientious. Thank you Julia!!”
“Kristine was truly great. She dog/house sat for over a week and kept us informed of our pup’s doings everyday (with pictures). Our home was just as we left it. We couldn’t have asked for more and will be hiring Kristine again for our next trip.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs snd cats in my home as a side passion. I love animals and will care for your pet as if it were my own with safety, care, and match their preferences. Petting sitting is a part time passion I do to fill my love for animals. I work from home and am able to board your pet on the weekends or during the week with advance notice. I love to cuddle, pet, play and walk them. I have a pet free home with a large fenced in yard. I also love hiking and walking so I do walks with pets to provide attention and stimulation.
About: Hi, I have a mini poodle, she is 10 years old. I know how to care senior dogs or puppies. I really love dogs. I did petsitting for my friends *Westchester and Bronx Pet care fits into my routine mainly during evenings and weekends. I’m more flexible on weekends but we can find time. I can provide services in both Westchester and the Bronx. Please let me know your location so I can confirm availability. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I always prioritize their safety and comfort. I never give pets human food, and I make sure to follow any dietary restrictions or allergy information you provide. I take pets out as often as they need and treat them with the same love and attention I give to my own family.
“David did an outstanding job watching our dog, Trixie. He walked her often during the day, and had her out early in the morning and well into the evening. He came to our home the day before his scheduled time to meet with us, and to see the dog. He wanted Trixie to see us together with him, so she would be comfortable knowing that he was an accepted part of our pet family. He left our home in perfect condition when we came back from a brief vacation. David is a very nice person and he is well suited with pets. I would have David back in the future when his services are again needed. Roseann and Mike b”
“Kristin was terrific. We needed someone to stay at our house to pet sit my daughter and her husband's dog while we vacationed with them. Their dog is a very sweet but sometimes precocious, energetic 3 year old golden retriever. Kristin did a great job! She's very friendly, experienced and caring. Most importantly she took good care of Shea, but the house as well. I definitely recommend her.”
About: I've been around animals my entire life; dogs, cats, horses, there isn't a four legged creature I don't love! I'm very attentive and always make sure any dog is well cared for and played with. Old or young, dogs have felt comfortable around me and I bond with them in a way that makes them feel safe and content. I've taken care of little dogs all the way up to Great Danes, and understand the needs of varying breeds. Whether its some good old fashion belly rubs or running with your dog, so they will spend their time with me wagging their tail and not feeling anxious that they are missing their parents while you're away! A girl's best friend is an understatement for sure!
About: Hello, I’ve had a dog for as long as I can remember. our “foster-fail” pup is learning to communicate with Fluent Pet buttons! She’s the friendliest little Morkie who would love some friends while mom’s home! She’s learned hand signals and verbal commands all with positive reinforcement! Feel free to reach out with any questions at all I work from home and already have a pet care routine built in! We go for three walks a day and whatever time in between we spend in the backyard playing fetch or dipping into her mini pool to cool off We currently have a yard, though it’s not fenced is large and set back. we also have set it up with leads for 50 yards. Our home has a crate and pen area “doggie room” id like to call it just next to my desk where I work if crating / alone time is needed. Three walks a day! The honest kitchen is the dog food we use along side fruits, treats, and peanut butter for snacks! Endless toys and enrichment ideas are planned for every day! Rolled towels for treats, boxes for tearing, snuffle mats, lick mats, balls you name it lol! Athena is pretty spoiled and I’d love to spoil your pup too! She gets along very well with friends and has both female, male, toy sized friends, xl golden doodle friends! She LOVE tugging with other dogs it’s the cutest. Going to someone else’s home would be lovely and I’m happy to bring items with me! Just let me know your boundaries and what you’re working on with your pup and I’m happy to help in any way. Older pups are my sweet spot. My late shihtzu diagnosed with cancer was on medication for a bit and needed a lot of extra love and support, happy to provide this as well.
About: I’ve grown up with a labrador retriever who quickly became my live-in best bud! I’ve adored animals ever since. I’ve helped neighbors/friends watch over their dogs/cats and homes, short-term and extended periods of time, either stopping by throughout the day to care for the pet or living in the home while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for an elderly and newly blind dog, and understand each pet has specific needs and care, plus consistency in routine is important when their owners are away from them. I am currently looking for a full/part-time job and am in between jobs right now, so I have a lot of time flexibility in a day-to-day while I am job searching. I care for others pets the same way I’d care for my dog, Mackie. Plenty of quality time, walks and meals based on their usually routine, playtime outside in the mornings and/or afternoon.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crugers
Corinne has been staying overnight to dog sit our two dogs, Maggie and Penny, for nearly two years. We trust her completely and know that Maggie and Penny will be well taken care of and spoiled rotten while we are away. Corrine sends daily updates and pictures each day letting us know how the dogs are doing. When you meet Corrine you will see instantly her nurturing, caring nature. We did and so did Maggie and Penny!
We have loved Griffin! He has taken our dog for one time walks and been our house sitter. Our dog is a little reactive and he does a great job protecting her and has managed any difficult interactions really well! He’s very communicative and our dog loves him!
Hayden housesat for my wife and I and was great with all of the animals. She kept them on their usual routine, and seemed to really enjoy spending time with them. My beagle was crying when she left. Additionally, she's punctual, communicates well, and is very polite and responsible. Your pets are in good hands with Hayden.
Priscilla has dog sat for our high energy bernedoodle 2x and she was amazing! We felt so comfortable knowing our dog was in her care. The daily photos and check ins were great. We knew our dog was having the best days with her :) our dog lovesssss when Priscilla comes!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Crugers is $73 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $105 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 16,664 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Crugers. 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 Crugers 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 Crugers 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 Crugers 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 Crugers. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
