“Annabeth is amazing! She watched 4 of our pets while we were gone on vacation to St. Augustine. She sent pictures of the pets and had great communication skills. She was very polite and gave us great feedback when we asked about how the stay was because this was our first time using Rover. We have already offered her a 2nd job for the winter if she is available because she did so great. This is the person that you want watching your pets! She put us at ease and we felt that our pets and house were in good hands.”
“Laura is fantastic! She is always on time and professional, but also like family. She loves Spencer and takes great care of him when we are away. We don’t have to worry about a thing!!”
“would highly recommend Tiarra for anything! She left our home in perfect condition and our boys were so happy! She was a great communicator and patient with our temperamental chihuahua.”
“Destiny was absolutely fantastic and took great care of my doggie and even my ferret for 7 whole days! She was consistently in contact with me and went above and beyond while also meeting my unique circumstances with doing house showings while trying to sell my house. Definitely book with her, she’s the best!!”
“Courtney is absolutely amazing with our two dogs! She provides exceptional care and always keeps us in the loop with adorable photos and thoughtful updates. We’ve booked with her multiple times already and will definitely continue using her for all of our dog-sitting needs. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Emily is great! She is a true dog lover. My little puppy is high energy and needs a lot of attention and she has a great time with Emily. Emily is reliable, and goes out of her way to take great care of my puppy. Posey can't wait to see her again!”
“Kelsey was the absolute sweetest. She came prior to my trip to meet my two cats so she could learn a little about them and my apartment before hand! Kelsey watched them over a holiday weekend where I assumed there would be lots of commotion and fireworks in our area and she was very communicative in reassuring me that the cats were safe. She sent me photos of the cats every night and they looked so so happy! In addition to all of these amazing things, we came home to our apartment fully cleaned even tho we told her no cleaning was necessary. Kelsey really helped to alleviate the anxiety of traveling and leaving your pets at home for me!”
About: I’ve always grown up with pets around, specifically dogs. Through my lifetime I’ve taken care of dogs with separation anxiety, older dogs, and very active dogs too. I believe that every dog has a special personality and they all deserve personalized care. So I will take in special care request that you know of, and also observe the dog so I care and play with it in the best way! I’m excited to work with you and your furry friends :) I have a pretty open schedule and availability! I can board on a Saturday night to Sunday morning, but I’m not available Sunday nights to Monday morning! I have a dog park in my apartment and share a dog with my sister so your furry friend will have some company. I also have some complement toys, treats, and a spare cage if needed!
About: I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including strong breeds and shy pets. I also volunteered at Cincinnati Animal Care Shelter, which taught me how to handle nervous or high energy animals with patience and care. I’m reliable, calm, and always treat every pet like my own. I work full-time Monday to Friday, 8 AM–5 PM. Some days I work from home, and on office days I come home during my extended lunch break (11:30 AM–1:30 PM). Evenings and weekends I’m fully available and very present with the pets I host — playtime, walks, cuddles, and downtime are part of our routine. Drop-offs and pickups are best scheduled in the evenings during weekdays. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine closely meals, walks, training, favorite toys, even little quirks, because I know consistency helps them feel secure. I’m careful about safety (doors locked, no unsafe items, supervised outside time).
“Morgan was amazing with our babies!!! I have lots of anxiety when leaving our pets and she made me feel so assured that they would be in good hands! It made our trip so much better!! Both my dog and cat are on medications and she was wonderful with all of it!! I highly highly recommend her!!!!”
About: I have been an animal owner and lover my entire life. I have cared for dogs, cats, and even chickens! I am to keep your fur babies, happy, healthy, and comfortable. I am practically free in the mornings and anytime after 7 most days. Weekends are also free so call me up for some last minute help! I love my animals and have them around all the time. We take them on walks frequently, let them run outdoors, have plenty of play time and don’t forget snuggles!
“Dawn is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! We are so happy to have found her and can’t wait to have her visit our baby in the future. ? She texted photos throughout the day and kept us up to date along the way. Thank you for loving our dog like your own!”
About: I can't remember a time I didn't have a dog! From birth I've always had my dog companons, I currently have 2 dogs of my own.(Deiliah, and scoob) Ive volunteered at several animal shelters delicating alot of my time to the ones who need love, and for the simple fact... How can you be sad surrounded by furry doggos...that's right you can't! I take my dog on daily walks, bathe her, love her, and play with all her favorite toys! Delilah is my rescue dog and she's been the biggest blessing to our family! I've never met a dog I don't like.. so let me love your fur babies! I accept puppies,and old dogs.

I try to really behavior and adapt best to the pet.. I'm in their home therefore I adapt.
“We had a 5 day trip planned for 4th of July, not only making it the longest we had left our dogs but all of our friends/family were also busy and weren’t available to watch our pups. Lauren was very responsive when scheduling, sent us updates while we were away and was very respectful of our home! It was our first time having to use a sitter and she couldn’t have made us more comfortable through the entire stay! We are already talking about another stay and I will refer her to anyone and everyone we know in need of a sitter ?”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently care for two dogs and a cat of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily pet routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and excited to build experience as a Rover sitter while treating every pet like family. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat! I feed them breakfast and lunch every day as well as a little snack before bed time! I let them out to use the potty every hour or so to make sure they are always comfortable! I like to take my dogs on a walk around the neighborhood every day if not every other day! I also tend to take them to vet visits and grooming visits! Along with an occasional adventure to the dog park! I can easily crate your dogs or cats if needed! I also have many collars and leashes of all sizes, comfortable for all types of dogs and cats. I always have a few treats in my back pocket any time I sit animals to ensure I reward them for good behavior! I also like to keep puppy pads, poop bags, transportable water bowls, flashlights, puppy wipes, ect. To ensure your animals needs are always being maintained!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Devon
Had a great experience with Christina. We have a puppy and he can be a little demanding and is very energetic. She did great with him and gave him the care we needed while away. She also kept the house nice and clean. Definitely appreciated that. Hope to be able to use her again.
Destiny was great staying with our two dogs and two cats, one of the cats recently started living with us after my father passed away, so she is a nervous cat with all the changes. She worked around our pets' schedule, sent updates and pictures, and let us know when she was leaving. One of my cats got a little sore under his eye while we were gone. Destiny sent us a pic, asking if this was common and treated him with ointment after we spoke. When we came home, everything looked like we left it and our pets were happy and healthy. Will definitely book Destiny again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Devon on Rover is $34.97 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,219 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Devon. 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 Devon 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 Devon 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 Devon 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.

- 97% 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.
