I cannot recommend Megan and Jacob enough. They are so professional yet warm, understanding and so attentive to details. There is not enough space to write how I got the absolute best sitters. I was a little nervous about leaving my three dogs, Cali, Teddy, and Oden, and my sweet cat, Grey Kitty, for four days, unsure of what to expect from an offsite pet sitter. But Megan and Jacob completely blew me away with their incredible care! Before I even left, they arranged several thoughtful meet-and-greet to connect with my furry crew, taking time to learn about Cali’s absolute love for her frisbee, nine-month-old Teddy’s endless puppy zoomies, Oden’s gentle giant soul as a 106-pound Mastiff/German Shepherd mix, and Grey Kitty’s aloofness. That first meeting instantly put me at ease, and their care only got better! They sent multiple videos during each visit, capturing Cali’s epic frisbee catches, Teddy’s joyful bounces, Oden’s soulful looks, and Grey kitties nap-about moments, paired with heartfelt updates about their moods. I was especially touched that they picked up on Oden missing me and showered him with extra love to lift his spirits. Those videos and notes kept me connected and worry-free the whole trip. When I got home, my pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. Megan and Jacob treated my furry family like their own, and I’m already looking forward to booking them again—I can’t wait! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking warm, attentive, and truly exceptional pet care!

About: I love animals no matter the breed. I can care for both cats, dogs and ferrets. I do not have experience caring for other animals but if taught their routine I can definitely learn! My schedule is usually always open and as a pet parent,I will always provide the best care for your pet when you are away. I can do overnight animal sitting, if necessary as well as during the day. Because of my housing arrangements, I cannot offer boarding. As a pet owner, I totally understand the questions and concerns of leaving your pet in the care of someone else. I do have friends and family members who trust me to take care of their animals, while they are away on business trips and/or vacations. The rules that are set for your animal will be followed by me.

Mae was absolutely incredible!! She went above and beyond our expectations to make sure our dogs were happy, cared for, and comfortable! She spent a great amount of time playing with our dogs and she also had excellent communication with sending us updates and pictures while we were away! Mae stayed in our home overnight for a couple nights to watch our dogs and she was extremely respectful of our home as well!! We have now found our go-to person with Mae and we (and our pups) 🐶 couldn’t be happier!

We used Tessah for our 3 weeks international trip. It was such a relief to have someone we trust so much for such a long time away. Not only is she great with our elderly dog who has medication, but she’s great with our other pets too. We have fish, an axolotl, and a snake, and she took great care of them all. I could not recommend Tessah enough!

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and have experience caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have three cats 🐈🐈‍⬛💛of my own and have also had dogs, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and take pride in making sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. When you trust me with your pets, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and affection while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m available on any day, as I work part time from home. I’ll never leave them alone and they will always receive the attention needed. I have a nice size yard, and my home is also animal friendly. I do have cats inside. I can take them to the pet park and let them play somewhere fenced in, as well. If there are things you prefer, be sure and let me know and I can make those accommodations.

Sam took very excellent care of my 5 cats and dog while I had an emergency and needed her last minute. She was very flexible and accommodating. I got tons of updates which made me feel very assured my fur babies were in excellent care while I was at the hospital with my baby. It was also a holiday and she was available. She was upfront about her kiddos coming, which was no problem. I was amazed there was no mess or anything. She cleaned up all dishes, took trash out and watered my plants. I had a week long stay at the hospital, I even asked if she would change my sheets and she did this for me. I was so blessed to find her and will always use her if she is available if I need a pet sitter. She even left a little goodie bag with a neat ink pen and some bracelets my daughter will not take off and loves! I’ve had pet sitters before that would just lock the dog out of my room and not interact with Sadie but Sam sent lots of videos/pictures of all my animals. We are home now and Sadie is so happy, it great condition and sleeping so soundly cause they gave her lots of exercise. 10/10 will book Sam again.

They are absolutely phenomenal! Very responsive to messages and coordination of the meet and greet to start. Wonderful in the meet and greet with the dogs(3). We knew leaving them for the weekend would be just fine. We received so many photos of them playing and enjoying the dog vacation. Arriving back to our house it was clean and tidy. The same way we had left it. I’d recommend Rey and Jonathan to everyone.

FAQs for House Sitting - Dobbins Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Dobbins Heights on Rover is $47.18 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 123 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dobbins Heights. 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 Dobbins Heights 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 Dobbins Heights 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 Dobbins Heights 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
