“Nicole did an excellent job in our home for an extended stay of 13 days with our 2 dogs. She was great with daily pupdates and pictures-which were greatly appreciated because we missed our babies. She dispensed meds several times a day to our senior German Shepherd and was able to keep our very active, lovable, snuggly -yet sometimes naughty Whippet puppy busy. I knew from the minute I met her that she was a great fit for us and I’d use her every time we need someone to stay or drop in for us!”
“Delen was great with my doggies when I was away. I'm always apprehensive about leaving my dogs, but she was fantastic. She communicated and sent pictures--which made me feel so much better. I highly recommend Delen and will be using her in the future!”
About: I grew up on a farm in Cambria/Lockport, NY and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Caring for animals has never been a job to me, it’s just how I was raised. Growing up, I helped care for 50 baby calves, 2 horses, 18 cats, 8 dogs, a miniature goat, and over 1,000 exotic birds and parrots since my mom was an exotic bird breeder. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets, shy pets, and high energy dogs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I feel the exact same way about my own little dog, Bambi, who is spoiled and loved like family. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone calm and caring around them, I will treat them like they’re my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks, drop in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, cat care, companionship visits, and overnight in home stays while owners are away on vacation. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, attention, and comfort, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals throughout the day. I am dependable, communicative, and willing to work with different schedules whenever possible to help pet owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for like family.

“Christina is truly the sweetest and most caring pet sitter! She has such a genuine love for animals and it really shines through from the moment we met and throughout the entire pet sitting stay. She kept us informed with lots of cute pictures and videos throughout the weekend, and was really on top of the specific needs for our senior dog.”
“Dan was great! He house-sat for us and took care of our senior dog Elsa. He was wonderful at keeping in touch and sending photos, and we would be delighted to have him take care of Elsa in the future.”
“Maria was incredible to work with. I was nervous to leave my best friend in the care of anyone besides me but my nerves were quickly relieved. Maria took the time to have a meet and greet so he knew her beforehand and also was extremely professional, asking lots of relevant questions to make sure she knew exactly what to do. Frequent photo updates kept me from wondering about him on my vacation. 100% would recommend Maria and I will be using her again”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life. I currently help my parents with their two dogs and have pet sat for many family friends throughout the years. Currently between jobs and have open availability. That is subject to change when I find a new job. If you have any questions feel free to reach out ☺️ I will play with, walk, and care for your pets and home as if they were my own. I am also capable of giving prescription medications to your pet if necessary for their day to day.
About: I have done seasonal dog walking jobs for older clients as well as drop-in visits for several of my friends and family’s cats or dogs. I am also proficient in caring for senior cats as I have rescued two from the street. My kitties are quite independent and have an auto kibble feeder and they are fed wet dinner in the evenings to support urinary health. I am always hanging out with them when in my home as it is theirs as well. I am always checking on my pets and giving them affection. I am attentive and quick to respond which makes me very observant and detail oriented. Your pet is always safe under my watch and your instructions will be followed closely. In my own home, clients’ pets have their own room.
About: I have experience with seizures and strokes in dogs, am able to administer any kind of medication, and have some experience with animals struggling with anxiety. I am a graduate student just looking for some fulfilling part time work. I am available at any point during the weekdays and after October 31st on the weekends I will not be able to host any animals, but I plan on prioritizing the pet’s comfort within their own home and making sure all needs are met
“Kendra was awesome! My dog can definitely be high maintenance at times but Kendra took great care of her, kept me updated while I was away, and took my pup on lots of adventures!”
About: I have 2 cats with eye problems and took another in who was severely malnourished. Under my care, they are all thriving and loved. I also love dogs, and dog owners trust me because of my reliability and transparency. My favorite dog that I have ever taken care of is a corgi! I am currently a student with a regular routine, allowing me to be reliable for your pet's needs. Your pet would be my #1 priority, and any other plans would be kept to an absolute minimum. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with them to release some of their energy. I have been practicing dog training, which will also keep your dog occupied while you are gone. I always ensure that food and small objects are kept out of the way to avoid any health concerns, and watch your pet closely while outside or eating.
“Madison was great. She checked in the day before to confirm the details of the booking to ensure she was there as scheduled. She kept us updated throughout the 2 days leaving us with a sense of confidence that our “Dug” was well cared for. She stayed overnight and maintained a tidy home. We are looking forward to having her again.”

I prefer afternoons and evenings to watch your pet. I look forward to providing excellent service. I care for a two year old bernedoodle every day in my home. I do everything for her except for grooming. I adapt well to care for your pet in your home.
About: I grew up with animals: goldfish, rabbits, birds, and dogs. I currently have a rambunctious Shiba Inu that loves to keep me on my toes! I have also taken care of my friend's dogs from walking to dog/house sitting, volunteered at local animal shelters throughout my life. I am a resident physician at the Jacobs School of Medicine, and I would love to get to know you and your pet! I am a full-time resident physician. Currently, my schedule changes every 2 weeks but in general, I get at least 1 full day off a week. I am generally free after 5pm on most weekdays. On the weekends I am generally free after 1pm. I’m happy to work with your schedule and find a time that works best! Safety trust, and communication are the biggest things for me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Depew
Sara was great with our pups!! So responsive and sent pics too! She watched them for our wedding weekend and even sent cute little messages from our fur babies. The house was spotless when we got home and she left us a little note to congratulate us and let us know any necessary details from the weekend. Highly recommend and will be booking again!!
Hello, we booked a trip with Jonathan for our 8-Night trip to Florida. This was our first time using Rover and our first time being away from our pets more than one day. We have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I was a little leery using Rover and having a stranger in our home. After going through Rover we chose Jonathan, based on his history. Jonathan reached out right away. Prior to our trip Johnathan came over for twice, once for the initial visit and once a couple days before our final departure. During our trip Jonathan was very punctual and provided updates twice a day with photos. I did reach out to him during our trip and he replied quickly. Overall, Jonathan made our trip less stressful knowing I can rely on him to take good care our pets and our home. THANK YOU JONATHAN for making our trip a stress free one and fun knowing our pets/home were in good hands.
When you have old animals, you know that things can go bad unexpectedly, and you want to make sure your sitter can handle it. That is why we always go with Samara. Her background and seriousness are what attracted us to her in the first place and her behavior and follow-up during the sittings are what get us to come back to her time and time again.
Monica and Matilda were absolutely wonderful. They went beyond to ensure my dog, Asher and cat Cappuccino were well taken care of and sent me regular photos of both to keep me informed. The house was also clean and picked up so nicely. I’m so thankful to have had them stay at our home to house/pet sit!
Our cat seems to love Jenna, and she takes 3 masterful pictures of him every time she comes by. She arrives punctually, all the chores get done, and the house has been in order the last few times we hired her. She has been our go to sitter since we found her. We would highly recommend!

The average cost of House Sitting in Depew is $41 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $65 per night.

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 Depew 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 Depew 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 Depew 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 Depew. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
