“Yujie is so kind and caring, and took such great care of our animals and our house while we were away. Our dog can be anxious with new people, but she felt comfortable with Yujie right away and was also so calm and happy when we returned from our trip as well! So glad to have found Yujie and we look forward to booking her again :)”
“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!”
“Taylor was great. She was punctual, considerate, good with our pup, thoughtful (she sent pics of Bear while I was in the hospital),and very neat. She has our unconditional support recommendation.”
“Joanna took such great care of our two dogs and our house while we were away for a week. Her dog Henry is very sweet and seemed to get along quite well with our dogs too. I would highly recommend her!”
“Roxanne was great staying with my 2 dogs. Roxanne took very good care of them. They seemed to really like her. When we returned they were very happy. So sent updates and pictures. I really felt they were in good hands. Thanks!”
“Tina was amazing with our little Snowy! Her communication was great, as she sent us daily pictures and updates. She also left our house sparkling clean. I could tell that Snowy was in great hands. I would definitely recommend Tina :-)”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors for years, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pets while you are away. I have experience with pets of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities, including shy pets, high-energy dogs, and senior animals. I am organized, reliable, and communicative, and I always prioritize following each pet owner’s instructions closely. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout visits and stays. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting Sundays after 3 PM, all day Mondays and Tuesdays, and Wednesdays until the evening. I can also be flexible if last-minute changes are needed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, medications, walk routines, crate instructions, and any behavioral or safety considerations. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I always try to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I also provide regular communication, updates, and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful, clean, dependable, and focused on creating a calm and safe environment for your pet.
“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!”
“We used Abigail over 4th of July weekend and she was great about giving our dogs medication on time and helping them stay calm through the fireworks and thunderstorms. It was our second time using Abigail and she's been fantastic both times. She sent plenty of photos and kept us updated throughout the day on how our boys were doing.”
“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”
“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!”
“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!!”
“Kala stayed overnight with our two husky/shepherds and did a fantastic job! Our one dog can be slow to warm up to new people so I was nervous to leave her, but she took to Kala in no time which made me feel so much more at ease! Kala was professional, communicative, respectful of our home, followed all instructions, and was just generally on top of things. We so appreciate her thorough care!!”
“Gave him 5 stars because the app won’t let me give him 10 ⭐️! Communicates frequently, took of my our high energy dog, and kept the house clean!!! Jeffrey was the best dog watcher we’ve had!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Devon is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Devon
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 $94.35 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,859 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.
