Thank you, Mia!! Mia took care of my sweet coonhound this past week. She was thoughtful to maintain Jolene’s regular routine as much as possible and quick to communicate with me about any questions or concerns. Jolene had a wonderful time :)

Emma always takes amazing care of our girl! She sends pictures while we are gone for a week and even sends pictures when she just comes to walk her during the middle of the day while we are at work. She even did a little art project with Piper to give to us as a gift for engagement. We moved to Dayton a year ago and Emma is the best thing that has happened to us since then! Piper always seems in the best spirits when we get home and we know she is well loved while we are gone. We are so lucky to know Emma and always leave home knowing our dog is in the BEST hands.

Elisa is absolutely wonderful! This is the second time she has come to our home to watch our pets and has done a great job. She was even sick and had to go to the er but that didn’t stop her from taking care of them! I had no back up as we are still new to all of this. She assured me she was able to keep taking care of our pet and she did a great job. I don’t know what I would do without her! We love you Elisa! Thank you so much!!!

About: I have a great deal of passion for training dogs and horses. I've loved and cared for a multitude of different species, including a sheep! My routine is to come home, have some dinner, and then feed/play with my dog and cats. I'd love to spend time with more pets! It's imperative to me that petsitters understand individual pet body language & communicate with pet parents to ensure that every pet feels secure & comfortable.

He was just so great with our dogs. I felt really insecure about leaving them for the first time since we moved cross country. Brandon gave me peace of mind and tons of pics with notes that let me know the dogs were perfectly content with their sitter. We’re already planning the next trip and have booked Brandon for a second time. If we ever need dog sitting, he’ll be our go to guy.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats both for over six years now and have two pets of my own. One dog and one cat. From going on walks to playing fetch, to just simply hanging out on the couch with your furry critters, I would love to do any and all of the above! I currently offer drop in visits and overnight stays, reach out with any questions! I am currently employed so I am currently unavailable from 12-4pm Wednesday and Friday. I prefer to do most of my work during the day but am open to night visits as well. I can not watch animals at my own home but am more than happy to come watch them at yours! I can do short visits all the way to overnights.

Tarah is very responsive. She sends updates and pictures. She notices any changes in our baby dog. She is always on time and let's us know of any changes. We know our girl is taken care of when Tarah is watching her and gives us a peace of mind knowing she is safe. 5 out of 5 for sure. Highly recommend!

I have never left on vacation without feeling complete angst about leaving my dogs behind. They usually spend the entire week hiding under the bed when we hire house sitters. But with Monroe, they seemed to not even realize I was gone! When I returned it was just like I came home from work that day - they were relaxed and happy to see me then went on about their day. I can't say enough good things.

About: Hi! I’m Haley, and I’ve had a love for dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and for the past 2 years I’ve had the privilege of working as a professional dog groomer. Every day, I get to build trust with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to sweet seniors and even nervous or anxious pups. Being a groomer has taught me so much about canine behavior, patience, and creating a calm, positive environment where every dog feels safe and loved. I know that every pet is unique, and I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone else can be difficult. That’s why I promise to care for your pet the same way I would my own—with kindness, patience, lots of love, and plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and cuddles. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or simply relaxing together, my goal is to make sure your pet feels right at home until you’re back. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! 🤍🐾 Pet care is my priority, and I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Because I work independently, I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits whenever possible. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or extra love and companionship while you’re away, I’ll do my best to work around your schedule and provide dependable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. Since I provide care in your home, I do everything I can to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow your feeding schedule, walking routine, medication instructions, and any special requests to make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. As a professional dog groomer, I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand canine body language and know how to safely handle nervous, energetic, shy, or senior dogs with patience and kindness. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands. 🤍🐾

Jasmine was wonderful!! We’ve used Rover several times and have been fortunate to have some really great sitters, but Jasmine was truly a step above. She sent us photos and updates every day, left our home even cleaner than we left it, and most importantly, spent so much time loving on and caring for our boys. ❤️ It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets and their home. We will definitely be using her again! 🐾❤️

About: For me, caring for animals is a lifelong calling that started at age 10. My deep involvement with nature has shaped my consciousness to view animals as living beings who deserve the same respect and care that humans do. This philosophy drives my approach as a sitter, whether I am implementing structured house-training routines for young dogs and kittens or managing the specialized needs of senior animals. I truly believe humanity's history is deeply intertwined with learning from and adapting to the animal world. I bring that foundational respect into your home, ensuring your pets feel completely understood, safe, and loved according to their unique personalities and attentiveness they deserve as living, feeling members of your family. I work full time with Lyft so I will have plenty of time to entertain your pup, dog, kitten or cat. Lets us have fun I'm in their world. I treat your home with the utmost respect and keep your pet's environment safe, predictable, and clean. To build trust, I strictly follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, locking up, and household boundaries. I thoroughly scan spaces for hidden hazards like loose cords or choking risks before letting pets roam. During our time together, I mirror their established daily routines to minimize stress and keep them feeling secure. I also send regular photo updates and transparent messages so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and thriving.

Serenity was wonderful. So communicative and there for my animals around the clock. I had a friend drop out at the last minute and was unable to take care of our animals but serenity was ready to take care of them the second I reached out. She has done a great job of taking care of my dog pets needs and making me feel secure in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would love to use her services in the future!

Maya took great care of our dog Audrey and our cat Cali while we were out of town. This was our first time having someone stay at our house with the pets. Cali is a pretty easy cat. Audrey can be a lot sometimes but Maya took it in stride and seemed unphased Audrey's specific needs, demands for attention, and separation anxiety. Every picture Maya sent showed Audrey and Cali looking cozy or happy. They seemed to enjoy her company. When we arrived home, Audrey especially seemed unstressed by the weekend without us. I would recommend Maya to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious individual to watch their pets.

About: I have a huge passion for animals of all types. I will be attentive to your dog's individual needs from dietary to exercise. If there is a specific diet program please leave detailed instructions or provide a demonstration upon meeting. I have owned and taken care of many dogs in the last 12 yrs including staying overnight with a puppy under 6mos and dog sitting 2 great danes. I enjoy playing with dogs, taking them on walks, being there for cuddles, or simply providing comfort for their anxiety. Every dog is an individual so I will tailor a plan for your dog accordingly. I have a variety of availability and am prompt to alert to changes. I am great at training and maintaining training routines. I'm currently working a flexible semi remote job. Depending on the needs of the dog(s) I can adjust certain times of my week to accommodate special cases. I can care for pets at your home. My beagle girl is skittish around other dogs and trained with an e fence perimeter. I have dog sat and house sat for friends, family, and unrelated new acquaintances. I have a safe and nurturing spirit combined with a strong enough presence that dogs respect without my need to raise my voice.

FAQs for House Sitting - Drexel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Drexel on Rover is $21.4 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 781 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Drexel. 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 Drexel 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 Drexel 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 Drexel 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 Drexel. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
