“Alaina was great! She took the boys for some walks, one got muddy and she bathed him, and one also got an upset stomach one day in the house. She cleaned it all up and made sure he was good to go. She really did well with my furry kids. I will use her again whenever I am in need of someone to trust with them.”
“AMAZING SITTER!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! REACTIVE EXPERIENCED! FORCE/FEAR FREE!!!!!! My dog is reactive and fearful and she met with me multiple times before the sit as well as was extremely responsive throughout the sit and any issues that popped up she dealt with amazingly. I highly recommend her for anyone who has dogs with any sort of behavioral issues as she is incredibly patient and kind as well as understanding with them and doesn’t push them beyond their boundaries. She’s extremely knowledgeable of dog body language and behavior, which is extremely important to me as someone who works with dogs professionally both on and off Rover. She also asked a lot of questions about my dog and his behavior and how to best interact with him while I’m away. She sent lots of pictures and videos. Despite my boy being temperamental and having tummy issues while I was away I had a fantastic experience and my baby boy was as well taken care of as he could have been. I had so much anxiety leaving him while I went out of state and she made me feel a million times better. She’s also an amazing person and I’m so happy I’ve gotten to know her throughout the last few weeks and I’m sure we will stay connected. I’ve even considered bringing my boy back to the area before I go on long trips in the future after I move hours away just to make sure he is around her because of how much I valued her service this stay!”
“Camri was great! She followed my dog’s crazy dietary and medical needs. And As I returned, my dog was super happy and my house was as I left it! Great sitter! I highly recommend Camri!”
“Mary was such a great sitter for us! She made sure our pups were very happy and well taken care of! She was attentive to our specific pups needs with high anxiety/energy and was able to play fetch and be there for them! Would highly recommend her for your next booking!”
“Reyna was wonderful! She sent several pictures of the dogs each day along with a daily recap. The house was left in wonderful condition! We will definitely use her again.”
“Dakota did an outstanding job taking care of our dogs at our home. He was incredibly attentive, making sure our pets were well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. It was clear that he genuinely cares for animals, as he went above and beyond to keep them happy and healthy. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in her capable hands. We highly recommend Dakota for anyone looking for reliable and loving pet care!”
“Ashlyn was great! Took wonderful care of our pups and our home while we were away. Sent lots of pictures and updates, and even went above and beyond by doing a little vacuuming. HIGHLY recommend!”
“Nick took care of our home and our dogs with very short notice. He took great care of everything. I would definitely recommend and will be happy to have him look after everything again.”
“My fur babies had the best time with Ezekiel. I could tell how comfortable and relaxed they were in all the wonderful pictures and videos that were provided. I was able to enjoy my time away without having to worry about them being taken care of. I would highly recommend Ezekiel!”
“Autumn was the perfect pet/house sitter! Not only were all of our animals well taken care of, but Autumn was an excellent communicator, polite, professional, and attentive! I felt her rates were very reasonable, which is a huge plus! She was flexible in working with us in regards to scheduling, procedures, and even agreed to take care of our goats on top of the indoor animals. If we ever need care for our animals again we would definitely reach back out to Autumn first!”
“Alanna was everything we have been looking for in a sitter. She followed our instructions as given and made sure to leave our home as she received it. Her level of communication was great. She sent pictures and updates daily. From the meeting greet to the actual sitting, Alanna has been nothing but professional, patient and accommodating. We look forward to booking her more in the future.”
“Cassie is compassionate. funny., thoughtful, creative, hardworking, trustworthy, intelligent. She has a good understanding of all instructions and what is expected of her. She’s done an outstanding job. She is awesome.”
“Lennon came and watched Goober for a few hours to get them used to each other before we are gone more days later this week. They ended up being good together! Highly recommend her!”
“I read a review saying Tianna once stepped in to fix a logistical nightmare and she did the same for us! We had to cancel our original sitter last minute because we didn’t want our dogs kenneled all day. After a quick FaceTime, Tianna totally understood their routine and came right after work to stay with them. She was patient, caring, and kept us updated the whole time. Our dogs felt comfortable right away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She’s the first person outside of family we’ve trusted to watch them, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Nichelle was a blessing !!! While my husband & I were on vacation in Mexico my phone WOULD NOT WORK !! (hubby forgot his UGH !) My phone would not call out or text. Thank God we were able to communicate through Rover. Nichelle was great with sending pictures and updates everyday. Our home and babies were great when we returned. We would highly recommend Nichelle’s services. Would love to use her again if need be.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Del City
Just wonderful! Reyna was polite and professional. Kept me updated during my trip about how my dog and cat were doing with daily updates/pictures. The house was kept clean and tidy. My four legged children clearly loved her! Will definitely try to book with her in the future and you should too!
Seras watched our two shepherds and our home while we were away and she did an awesome job. She stayed with them whole time and gave updates throughout our trip and she even cleaned up a bit which was so appreciated not coming home to mountains of dog hair. We will definitely be booking with Seras in the future and would recommend her if you’re looking.
I waited until the very last minute to book sitter for my 3 dogs and two cats. Ansley was able to squeeze me in and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She routinely checked in and sent me pictures of how the fur babies were doing each time. I will definitely use her again!
Kailee I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful care you took of Charlie Brown while we were away. This was the first time we ever left Charlie at home. (Normally he travels with us). Knowing that our dog was so well cared for each and every day allowed us to really relax and not worry about him while we were on vacation. We are forever grateful for the awesome job you provided caring for Charlie Brown Thanks a million

FAQs for House Sitting - Del City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Del City on Rover is $50.07 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 841 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Del City. 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 Del City 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 Del City 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 Del City 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 Del City. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
