“Katherine did a fantastic job with my dog Finely. She was communicative and prompt and I was confident that Finley was well taken care of. She even left a printed photo and flowers behind after her stay! The house was also left exactly as she found it. I would not hesitate to book again.”
“Tina was fantastic. I was totally at ease during my time away, because Tina is the perfect carer: mature, very experienced, kind, practical, attentive, safety-minded, responsive, communicative, and above-and-beyond helpful. She made travel so easy that now I can consider doing additional trips in the near future!”
“Teresa is a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious pet sitter (translation - she is the Mary Poppins for pets)! She came to our AirB&B to watch our 15 month old puppy so we could go out for the evening. Not only did she take great care of our pup (including gifting him a toy he loves), she also helped with his training by coaching him down the stairs. Our pup and our backs thank you!”
“We could not have had a better experience with Stephen watching our yellow lab, Odie, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we confirmed the reservation, Stephen was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in his planning. He wanted to meet ahead of time to go over every detail, and we actually met twice before we left because he truly wanted to make sure everything was covered. That level of care and professionalism immediately put us at ease. While we were away, Stephen sent us updates and pictures every single morning. Not once did we feel anxious or worried about Odie being away from us because Stephen gave us complete reassurance the entire time. We always knew Odie was in great hands. Stephen is kind, gentle, professional, and clearly loves dogs. You can see it in the way he communicates with them and with their owners. He treated Odie with so much patience and care, and it meant the world to us to know our dog was being loved and cared for while we were gone. I truly could not recommend Stephen more highly. Whether you are considering having him stay in your home or boarding your dog with him, you absolutely cannot go wrong. Your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, and you will love Stephen just as much as your dog does.”
“Second time we’ve used Jenni and Matt and they are just plain wonderful! Pups always well taken care of when we return and lots of pics/videos sent while we were gone. 100% would recommend booking them!”

About: I have 4 little dogs that I’ve helped to take care of since I was little! This includes being left at home for full weekends making sure they are fed, medicated, let outside, and of course loved! I also have some experience with taking care of cats although I’ve only ever had barn cats. There are a few weeks during the summer that I wouldn’t be able to do. These would be June 1st, June 22-June 26, June 29-July 10, and July 13-July 24. Other than that I can start as soon as May 25! I’m very friendly with animals and would be fine with feeding, walking, bathing, medicating, etc. All I ask for is detailed instructions of what to do!

“Adriana watched our two labs while we took a long weekend trip. She came and met them before so they would know her when she showed up and she was so sweet and she took great care of them while we were away! We were happy knowing our doggies were well taken care of.”
“Evangeline was terrific! She watched over our home and our beloved Airedale, Archie, like he was her very own. Stayed in contact and handled the little things that popped up. A terrific lady and and all-pro service!”
About: I was born and raised in Chester County on a horse farm, where caring for animals was part of everyday life. With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals, including horses, goats, sheep, dogs, and cats. I’ve bottle-fed kittens and baby goats, administered medications, cared for senior pets, and looked after animals with special needs. Over the years, I’ve provided pet care for friends, neighbors, and clients throughout the community, many of whom have trusted me with their pets for multiple years. I understand that every animal has unique needs, routines, and personalities, and I take pride in providing dependable, compassionate care that helps both pets and owners feel at ease. I’m currently a college student taking online classes, so I spend most of my time at home. My flexible schedule means I can give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day! I’m available for walks and drop-ins most weekdays and weekends, open for boarding or extended stays. For boarding, I currently accept cats only and provide them with a quiet, comfortable space where they can feel safe and relaxed. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I welcome pets of all sizes and breeds. I always follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Daleville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Daleville on Rover is $26.64 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 2,481 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Daleville. 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 Daleville 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 Daleville 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 Daleville 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.

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.
