“Ali is a delight! She took great care of my dog and my house while I was away. I could tell that my dog was very happy and had a great time on their daily walks. Ali is also able to handle special requests as my dog has some anxiety and needed some extra attention. She also was great at providing updates. Highly recommend Ali!”
“Joanna was great! I would use her again for sure! I trusted her in my home, and she made me feel very comfortable being away. Her dog Hennry is very sweet as well and got along with Chloe. Thanks Joanna!”
“Roxanne is a delight to have in our home. Our Yorkie immediately fell in love with her which made it much easier for us to leave her. We are thrilled to have found Roxanne and look forward to booking her again.”
“Our doggo loved spending the weekend with Annie! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures of them adventuring! She was very patient with our dog’s anxious behavior when they first met and helped our dog feel at ease.”
“Amberleigh was very attentive to my cats and provided me with frequent updates throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. She also voluntarily tidied up around my apartment including cleaning my hardwood floors and wiping surfaces. I highly recommend her!”
“Laura was absolutely awesome! Laura truly was the best! She took the very beat care of our home and dogs. Our dogs (who are a bit needy and one special needs) had a smooth and seamless transition into her care. She was thought forward, kind, caring, diligent and followed all our dogs care needs and schedule perfectly. She treated our pups and our home as her own and we are so GRATEFUL! We feel so blessed to have met her and to have her care for our beloved dogs. We were very impressed & our dogs were never so calm upon our return ever. She is wonderful and comes highly recommended and we definitely hope to use her again.”
“We’ve been searching for years for a reliable dogsitter and house sitter and we are so thankful that we found Marisa this year! She has stayed with our dogs several times this year and it makes traveling so much easier and less stressful knowing that she is at our home taking such great care of our pups! We love getting her daily updates and pictures and our dogs always look so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Marisa is truly incredible with our dogs — she makes our anxious dog feel comfortable and has such a calming energy that she’s even able to get her out of her comfort zone. She also takes such amazing care of our senior pup, gives him his meds, and makes sure to give him plenty of attention and love. And without even asking her to do this, she leaves our home spotless, sometimes I think it’s even cleaner than how we left it! Marisa is truly the greatest and we are beyond grateful to have found her! We’ll continue to use Marisa anytime we go out of town!”
“Joanna was great! She gave the perfect amount updates on my greyhound, Minerva while we were away and she kept our house super neat and clean. Minerva was so relaxed when we got home so we know she had a great weekend too! Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am also comfortable caring for cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors and have experience managing different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary hospital and a zoo, where I learned safe handling, how to recognize signs of stress or illness, and how to maintain proper care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, and I’m especially comfortable with active dogs as well as providing gentle care for younger or more sensitive pets. I am also quite the green-thumb if you need your plants watered!🌸🪴🌼🌱🌻 My schedule is very open and flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate pet care throughout the day and week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, including walks, feeding times, and check-ins. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in my client’s home. I am very attentive and detail-oriented, and I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and supervise pets closely during play. I pay close attention to behavior and can recognize signs of stress or illness. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and safe.
“Taylor was truly incredible! We felt so comfortable leaving our four pets with her, and she handled them all perfectly! Some of them were on medication and had specific feeding instructions, which she perfectly handled. Our animals loved her instantly-even our shy cat was giving her cuddles the second day! She took care of our house and went above and beyond cleaning up litter and removing snow! I can’t recommend her enough”
“Rachel did an amazing job in our home! Sent daily updates and pictures of hazel, took our energetic lab on walks and was very respectful of our home, she left it just as we did when we left for vacation.”
“All I can say is thank you! Angela came in and saved us last minute when we were in need of a sitter for our little man. This would have been our second time ever leaving him alone with someone else and we’re scared. However, Angela took care of him as if he was her own. Don’t second guess it and definitely get her assistance! Thank you so much Angela!!”
“Tim was FANTASTIC!! I went away for eight days and was worried how my fur baby was going to be emotionally. Only to my surprise and delight he was loved so much more than one could anticipate! I didn't know Patch (dog) was going to receive daily walks, hikes, creek cool offs, bathing and non-stop love! It was as he had a camp counselor move into my home for the week and play! The house was cleaned prior to us coming home, even sheets and towels washed and folded. I received daily posts and videos of the dog's time with Tim. I must say Patch loved him and was sad to see him go. Would I use him again? ABSOLUTLEY!!! Thank you, Tim!! Until next time”
“Nico watched my two dogs at my house for 4 days while I had a trip to the East Coast. Nico did an awesome job! He gave daily updates , pictures, and took the dogs out on their favorite walks. Nico is also a great house guest as he kept everything clean and followed the instructions. I can’t wait to book him again!”
“Danielle was great with our two pups and our home. I would love to have her back to care for them again! She left a very sweet note and detailed information on when they were fed, let outside and given medicine. She is a wonderful caretaker.”
“Shannon was amazing with our dogs!! When she got here she discovered one of our dogs was having pretty bad gastrointestinal distress. She had a few accidents around the house. Shannon went WAY above and beyond to clean up the mess and still stay to take care of the dogs for the night. Truly grateful for Shannon. She us very kind, professional, and our dogs loved her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Devon
Tina was great with our senior dog, Henry! She was very communicative and gave him lots of love and affection when she visited. She was also so helpful in getting our mail and bringing in our packages while we were away on vacation. We would absolutely love to use Tina again the next time we are away!
I couldn't ask for a better dog/ house sitter than Conor. He was comunicative to us and loving and attentive to my "Nervous Nelly" of a Wheaten, Pia. He paid attention to every detail from keeping the water bowls full and fresh during our heat wave to comforting Pia during thunderstorms. She loved him. The house was tidy, the bed stripped, the trash taken out and all the poop was picked-up! We are definitely going to use his services again! 😀
Deven was awesome! He stayed at our house with our pup while we were out of town and took great care of everything. We got updates every day and our pup had a great time. Deven took care of a bunch of house things as well and even handled trash day for us. He’s reliable, friendly and great with animals. We’d recommend him to anyone!
We had a great experience with Alex while she watched Benny for a few days. I felt completely comfortable with her handling him, and she kept me updated every day with the perfect amount of photos and messages. It was clear Benny was well cared for and having a great time. When we came home, we were greeted by one happy and tired pup! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their dog.
Charlene was terrific. She came for a meet-and-greet and stayed with our Westie, Piper, on short notice, over a long weekend while we were away. Everything was perfect. She was very attentive to Piper, took her for walks, sent many photos and videos, and asked good questions for clarification to make sure she followed our usual routine. She also left the house in pristine condition. We can recommend her without reservation.
This is the first time I have left Stella with anyone besides family, and Ashley was amazing. Stella stayed with Ashley in her home for 10 days while I took a family trip overseas. She kept us updated with pictures and texts. She took care of Stella like she was her own dog giving her lots of love and attention. Ashely was very accommodating , allowing us to pick her up late when our flight was delayed. She also groomed her daily, and had her looking great at pickup. I would definitely recommend her services and would use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Devon on Rover is $91.57 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 5,629 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Devon. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
