“Emma was amazing! She followed my very detailed instructions perfectly and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She sent lots of pictures and updates, left my house spotless, and even noticed that my older dog seemed a little off. She let me know right away and kept a close eye on him, which I really appreciated. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I will absolutely use Emma again without a doubt. Highly recommend!”
“Leah was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! 🐾 She took great care of them while I was at work, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly really cares about my fur babies. My dogs were happy and well taken care of when I got home. I would definitely recommend Leah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! ❤️ Thank you Leah!☺️”
“Kylie was so great the entire process! I initially was hesitant to have someone from this app to stay at my place and watch my pup, but she eased all my worries! She was super sweet and knowledgeable and I have already rebooked her for next month 😊”
“Marissa agreed to watch our 4 animals just days before New Year’s Eve, which included staying at our home on NYE. She still made time to come meet our pets and review info prior to her stay. Marissa was also great about keeping me updated and sending pics of my fur babies, which helped tremendously! We are so grateful! Will definitely use her services again in the future if we have additional needs.”
“Jacqueline was great with Harper and stayed with her for a week while we were on vacation. She gave me frequent updates and I was comfortable that Harper was well taken care of while we were gone!”
“Andrea is the BEST!! Literally book her while you still can!!!! It was my first time using Rover for my kitten and I was super anxious about everything but I quickly realized she is in great hands with Andrea! She connected with my kitten and learned what she likes and treated her like her own fur baby! Andrea sent me updates and pictures through out which gave me lots of reassurance. Andrea stayed at my apartment and left it so clean and perfect! Also, Andrea is literally just the sweetest person you will ever meet and you can tell she genuinely cares and wants the best for your pet!!! I cannot say enough great things about her!!”
“This was the most relaxing trip I have had in a long time. I felt at ease, and if I ever wanted an update or more photos I was quickly accommodated. One of the most professional, reliable, and honorable pet sitting experiences I have had in a long time. 10/10 would book again.”
About: I have always owned dogs and one is medium sized and one is small. I got a five month old puppy when I was 14 and trained her fully. I dog sit for family and friends and want to expand and do more dog sitting! I love cuddling with dogs, taking them for walks, and playing with them. I adore dogs so much that I did a research presentation in a public speaking class about different dog breeds and their traits! In the summer, I am a part time nanny for a wonderful family. As of right now, I am available on Monday mornings and early afternoons, Friday afternoons and nights, and all day Saturdays and Sundays. During the school year, I am away at college as a nursing student but come home for a few days monthly. I am fully capable of giving your dog walks, clean up their mess, give medication, crate them, etc., genuinely anything that is important to you! I will give so many belly rubs and cuddles as well.
“Levi was amazing. Literally nothing could have been better. Jeronimo took to him like a duck to water and cuddles with him. He’s amazing with my pup and look forward to booking again for all my future needs! Levi respected my home, and it was left in pristine condition. He took very good care of Jeronimo and sent me frequent updates and photos. I could literally not be happier. I’d say you should book him, but don’t because I don’t want his availability taken from me. 😂”
“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care Celeste provided for Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup! She went above and beyond in every way. Throughout the weekend, she kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Celeste was professional, attentive, and clearly treated our pets as if they were her own. Jack, Tekken, and Princess Buttercup absolutely loved her, and we could tell they were comfortable and well loved the entire time. We highly recommend Celeste to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and top-notch pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We have high expectations for our pets care. We have both medically and behaviorally delicate dogs. When our most anxious dog went right to her for attention I knew we picked the right person. She kept us well informed during her stay, and the animals were clean, happy and doing well when we returned.”
“lux watched our 3 small dogs (one being senior) for about a week in our home (this is the second time he has helped us)! lux was great and is our favorite go to dog sitter! I received updates on the dogs which gave great piece of mind. I came home to my home as I left it [which was very nice knowing my dogs are not good at going to the bathroom outside when we are away] lux spent quality time with my dogs and their needs. I definitely felt like the investment in lux being here while we were gone was well worth it!”
“Sebastian did wonderful with our 7 pets (3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs)! He provided the unique care for each pet and kept them comfortable during fireworks. He kept me updated with pics and details. Our plans changed and he was willing to stay the night which was so appreciated! Our home was just as clean as we left it. Our pets seemed very content when we got home. Sebastian is a great and respectful pet sitter we’d love to hire again!”
“I had Abigail come to my house to sit my 3 dogs while i was on vacation. She did great with my babies and took time to make them feel more comfortable with her. She even met with me beforehand to meet the dogs which put me more at ease with using her. Abigal is trustworthy and she was respectful of my belongings. She also brought in my packages and took up my garbage cans which was a huge help. I'll definitely use her services again in the future.”
“100% recommend Kathleen!! She treats your pet like her own. Very respectful of our home. Took our dog on a walk every night & fed our fish. It’s hard for us to take a vaca & leave our baby at home, Kathleen made the process easy.”
“Shea was wonderful! Not only did she do this for a week before (our bad), but she was so caring and attentive to our 2 dogs. They are high energy most of the time unless they have someone to snuggle 🙂!! Thank you so much for your care! We are so appreciative! We will definitely be reaching back out to shea for further service with our dogs as she made us feel very comfortable. :)”
“We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our pet sitter! She cared for our two dogs and our cat over a long weekend, and from start to finish, the experience was absolutely incredible. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease. She is warm, professional, responsible, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. While we were away, she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and the sweetest photos, which meant so much to us. It was obvious our pets were not only being well cared for — they were happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable in her care. Our dogs can be a handful at times, and our cat definitely has her own personality, but she handled everything with patience, attentiveness, and so much kindness. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated our home with great respect. Coming home to calm, content pets (and a tidy house!) made all the difference. It’s such a gift to travel knowing your animals are in loving, capable hands. We would trust her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter. She is truly the best! 🐾💛”

Abigail did a great job taking care of Moose and Ella while we were away! I was especially appreciative of how well she handled our particular situation, as Moose and Ella do not get along and have to be kept separated. Managing two large dogs while making sure they remain separated requires extra attention and responsibility, and Abigail handled it very well. She also took care of Ella’s additional needs, including giving her ear drops since I found out prior to our trip Ella had an ear infection, which I really appreciated. Abigail followed their routines and instructions, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind knowing both dogs were being well cared for while we were gone. Both Moose and Ella seemed happy and well cared for when we returned, and the house was well taken care of too. Having someone I could trust with our dogs, especially given their separate routines and Ella needing some additional care, gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Abigail and would be happy to have her take care of Moose and Ella again in the future. Thank you, Abigail!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dent on Rover is $33.3 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 1,306 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dent. 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 Dent 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 Dent 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 Dent 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 Dent. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
