About: Hi! My name is Dilyana , and I’ve been an animal lover my entire life! I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also been a professional dog groomer for over four years, which has given me lots of hands-on experience working with dogs and understanding their different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby. I promise to treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, patience, attention, and cuddles! Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’d love to help! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 🐶💕 Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life! As a dog groomer with over four years of experience, I’m used to spending my days around pups. I love making time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and giving each dog the love and attention they deserve. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their furry friend’s needs! Your fur baby’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities! With over four years of professional dog grooming experience, I’m comfortable handling dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I always make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or caring for them in your home, I’ll follow their usual routine, provide plenty of attention, and treat them like my own!

“Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!”

“Such a caring, kind and conscientious person. I cannot recommend Panny enough. We went on a three week trip to Africa and came home to a calm dog and a spotless home. I have been hiring dog-sitters for 30 years and Panny made them all pale by comparison.”

“What could go wrong went wrong with my dog while we were out of town. Dana kept me updated on everything and got him to his vet, then brought him to the hospital. She didn’t leave my dog’s side until the hospital admitted him. He was stabilized and I now have him home! Thank you, Dana for picking up on his symptoms and getting him the care he needed!”

“Taigh was a lifesaver - he responded immediately to my last-minute request for help to watch our little dog and stay at our house for the long weekend. He took great care of both the dog and our house, kept us posted as to our dog's goings on, and even had his mom check in on the dog when he was going to be at work for a long stint. We really appreciated the photos and texts with updates, as well as with his stripping the bed and washing the sheets. We would definitely recommend Taigh and plan to use him again for future pet/house sitting needs.”

“Kathleen is an absolute gem! Our elderly Maltese dogs had never had a stranger as a sitter but we found ourselves with no one to watch them and we wanted to visit our new grandchild in Colorado. From the moment we met her at a 'meet and greet' we found her to be friendly, caring and experienced. We booked her for 5 days to stay at our home and it was the best decision! Our dogs, being older , have their quirks but Kathleen made us feel comfortable about leaving them. She sent us daily photos and videos telling us how well they were doing. I felt at ease and confident she would do her very best to care for them-- and she did. It was just like having a family member care for our dogs. Our house was immaculate when we returned and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience!”

About: A tride and true animal lover! Always had a fur baby in my life since I was a little girl. Proud Momma to Stubby and Libby my two rescue kitties. Who rescued who? I often ask myself. I began my journey working with animals when I owned and operated a homemade dog & kitty treat business. I sold my goods at the local Farmers Market. However, sadly due to Covid I was unable to continue the business. Many of my market customers began to reach out to me looking for a dog walker/per sitter. So….one thing led to another and here I am! I now do this full time. And I am being 100% honest when I say - I absolutely LOVE my work! Each animal I care for is so special to me! Ive had some clients since they were tiny puppies. It’s amazing watching them grown up and being a part of their lives! I also always go the extra mile. If my schedule allows I stay beyond the booking time too. Caring, loving, devoted...our pets are surely members of our family. They deserve unconditional love in return for their loyalty. I vow to give your fur babies the same love and attention I shower on all the dogs and cats in my life. Flexible and available all the time and at night. Very flexible! Can also do last minute appointments if emergencies arise. This is my full time job! Plus being a mom. I dedicate all time and attention to animals and my kids. I have flexibility in my day to accommodate all of your needs and requests. I can start early since my kids are up and out for school by 7:15 am. I always go the extra mile! I grow very attached to the animals I care for. And I alway stay longer than the allotted visit time if my schedule allows.

“Caroline was amazing! Took the time before housesitting for an in depth phone call and then a meet and greet with Charley to go over all details. Was wonderful with our dog, taking her on daily hikes and adventures and sending lots of communication and photos. Treated our home like her own, even watering our plants while we were away! Definitely recommend!!”

About: I love fresh air and think it's important for dogs to be dogs and enjoy it! Even without a dog, I go for walks every day to get my puppy fix and love to be outside. I also grew up with cats and am happy to keep any and all furry friends company! I have over 15 years of experience with everything from pet-sitting to babysitting and house-sitting, and I find it important that you feel comfortable while you're away from home. I am extremely trustworthy and responsible and would love to provide that comfort to your family. I have a corporate work-from-home job that offers me flexibility to help most weekdays and weekends. I am available to be around as often as needed, whether that be one-time drop-ins or spending a day working from "home" with some furry coworkers. I always make sure everyone is safe and happy, with a healthy awareness of dog behaviors and experience with reactive animals. I clean up after myself and always leave places cleaner than I find them.

Zack is amazing ! He did a housesitting overnight stay with our dog Rony for 5 days - i really appreciated that he confirmed and checked on details in advance. He was great about sending pics of Rony while we were on family vacation. Zack left our place spotless and our dog very happy! Highly recommend and will be using his services again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Dennis

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Dennis is $36 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $36 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 342 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dennis. 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 Dennis 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 Dennis 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 Dennis 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 Dennis. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
