“Olivia was awesome with our pups! We just relocated and needed to find a new dog sitter quickly for a business trip and we’re glad we found her. She took great care of our boys, took them for walks and gave them all the attention they needed. Will definitely be booking with her again! :)”
“My dog had a great time with Imani and the house was well taken care of. She was easy to communicate with and sent lots of pictures, which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Gabby was great with our dog, she took great care of him and our house! The house was spotless on our return, and our normally anxious dog seemed as happy as usual which was a relief for us. She was very quick with communicating, we would definitely have Gabby sit for us again.”
“Kylie did an awesome job staying with our pups while we were out of town for the weekend. Quick to respond and thorough communication, provided lots of photos and updates. She was fantastic with our almost 16 year old senior dog who wears a diaper and requires more care, and also played fetch in the backyard with our younger dog. She was tidy and left the house spotless. Would book again!”
“Sarah was fantastic! She was very communicative while I was away and sent lots of pictures and updates which I appreciated. Both of my fur babies were happy when I got home and I could see they had been extremely well taken care of. I will definitely book with her again.”

From rescues to family pets, I promise to treat yours with love, patience, and care 🐾 I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, but I have some flexibility depending on your pet’s needs. My weekends are currently open and flexible please reach out with any questions. You know your pet best, so I’ll follow your routine and care instructions closely. I’ll keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—your pet may not even notice you’re gone!
“We used Karen for the first time for our 2 dogs. She sent pictures and made me feel comfortable that they were being well cared for. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Rowan was absolutely fantastic for house sitting my 2 dogs and 4 cat mad house. Felt 100% secure in the care she provided. Would definitely recommend to anyone in need of care.”
“Suzanne was a wonderful sitter! Patches got to play and be exercised while i was at an out of town workshop! He loved his sitter and I know she cared for him while I was away. She sent fun action photos of him playing! Arrives on time always. Will have her again, Jane H.”
“Megan and Lee are awesome! It was so lovely getting to do a meet and greet before we left on our trip. They took wonderful care of the pets and I really enjoyed getting photos of the happy animals while we were away.”
About: I have had pets, mainly dogs, my entire life and I have a true love for animals. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for over 6 years. I have recently joined the Rover community and I am excited for this new experience! I do work a part-time job so my availability often differs by the day but I still have plenty of time for pet care! The earlier I am requested and care is planned out, the better I will be able to adjust my schedule to your needs! I have plenty of experience caring for pets, majority dogs, in their own home and my goal is always to make them feel comfortable in their space! My availability for caring for pets in my home is more limited but I do have a fenced yard and two dogs(one small and one medium) that are both friendly with other dogs and able to be crated if necessary!
“Mark did such a great job with our dogs while we were on vacation! My husband and I appreciated the regular updates and pictures of our pups while we were gone. He was a great communicator, especially if anything out of the norm happened. When we returned home, Maple and Moose were as content and relaxed as they could be. We would absolutely book Mark again!”
“Excellent Dogsitter-watched our two dogs in our home. Very responsive and sent updates regarding the dogs while we were away. Made sure the dogs got plenty of exercise. Will be a repeat customer!”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’ve had both some combinations of dogs and cats my whole adults life and I can’t imagine my life with them in it. I will love your pets like they are my own. I have two cats at home that require some of my attention but I do have flexibility. Looking to expand my business to allow more weekly routine but as of right now I am available nights and weekends I will give your pets all the love and attention they need. I will pay special attention to any special care or needs that you might have.
“Patrice was fantastic housesitting for our elderly dog and young pup for a week. They had great care and Patrice kept us well-informed when one of the dogs didn’t seem to feel well for a day or so. It was a great comfort to have someone who cares so much about animals and their well-being looking after the dogs while we were away!”
“Crystal spent 5 days watching our dog and cat in our home and went above and beyond. Our girls are a little high maintenance and she made sure they were well taken care for, maybe even better than we do! She gave us updates daily with pictures and we could tell they were comfortable with her. She took our dog on walks daily (which wasn’t required) and snuggled with our girls often. She left our house cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be booking with Crystal again. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs had such a good time with Scott that they were actually sad to see him go when we returned from our trip! I am sure they will be elated next time they see him. Scott is easygoing, communicative, and has our full trust. We're so glad to have found Scott and know our pups are in good hands with him!”
“Eric was incredible. He accepted our last minute request and came over with a great attitude and was very professional. And our dog LOVED him, we could tell right away that Eric is a dog person. Great experience with Eric, would definitely hire again!”

Olivia was great! She was reliable and stayed extra time with our dog cause we returned late from our trip. The house looked great and our high energy dog was clearly happy. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter and will likely be using her again in the future.
Olivia was wonderful with our two dogs. One of them unexpectedly needed medication during the time we were going to be on vacation and Olivia had no problem accommodating us at the last minute. Knowing that she was taking great care not only of our dogs, but of our house as well, gave us the peace of mind to be able to actually enjoy our time away. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Daniel was great - excellent communication and great with the pups. One of our pups took an instant liking to him and was asking for belly rubs during the meet and greet. We hired him to house sit during our wedding weekend and he even walked the dogs up to our wedding venue so we could take pictures with them on the day.
Sarah was fantastic! She was very communicative while I was away and sent lots of pictures and updates which I appreciated. Both of my fur babies were happy when I got home and I could see they had been extremely well taken care of. I will definitely book with her again.
My wife and I were exceedingly pleased and impressed with how Meagan and Lee took care of everything we asked them to do. That included managing the various tasks for each of our two dogs. Especially an older one with a schedule of multiple times for meds and careful handling with him going into our backyard having a limp from an injured leg. Beside these things, they were so friendly and easy to communicate with and cooperative from the initial contact, the meet and greet, and the in person contact before we left. An extra appreciated feature is how much and well Meagan provided daily updates and photos and responded courteously without delay to my text messages. And above and beyond, they also cleaned up before they left that was a pleasant thing to return to. We absolutely would want to arrange for Meagan and Lee to be home sitters with our dogs again.

Joseph was superb and stayed in constant communication with me and took wonderful care of my German Shepherd (Zak). Zak has some anxiety issues and was nippy on Joseph's first day but he worked through it and rapidly gained Zaks trust and affection I will be coming back for sure on my next trip
Jeff was great! He was very responsive to communications, completed a meet and greet before booking, and above all took great care of our house and pups while we were away on vacation. He also sent us pics of our pups to let us know that they were ok. I'd highly recommend Jeff for anyone looking for a committed dog sitter! We'll definitely be using him again! Good job Jeff!
I would highly recommend Tarani to watch your pets. She stayed over for 9 nights and gave our dogs excellent care; she followed my instructions, asked questions and provided updates. I felt like I could enjoy my vacation knowing she was at our house talking to our dogs and giving them the care they’re used to. Thank you!
Reilly was very good with our three Shelties making them feel comfortable with her right away. She was prompt and reliable and followed the instructions for our dogs’ meds and feeding schedules just like we asked her to. We appreciated her quick responses to our checking in on how things were going, she even sent pics of our pups. It was very nice!

FAQs for House Sitting - Dillonvale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dillonvale on Rover is $33.3 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 1,463 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dillonvale. 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 Dillonvale 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 Dillonvale 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 Dillonvale 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 Dillonvale. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
