“Thank you Seth, for a seamless, successful visit. The dogs didn't even miss us but I think they might be looking out the window for you today. The house, the dogs, and the Guinea pig are all in great shape and I have zero complaints. I would be happy to have Seth take care of our house and animals again.”
“Lei is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my 3 year old golden retriever in my home while I was on vacation for a week and I felt very confident in all the care, attention, and love she gave to my pup while I was away. She kept me informed with many pictures and updates each day which I really appreciated. She paid great attention and followed all care instructions carefully. I enjoyed my vacation more knowing my pup was happy and in such good hands. We will use her again for sure and cannot recommend her enough!”
“Tasha was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive and it was easy to coordinate with her. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos and was great with my pup. Will def use her again!”
“I know my dogs are cared for when Sierra watches them! My dog had recently been neutered and I trusted she could give him his meds and keep an eye on him while I was away for the weekend.”
“Anne was so helpful in looking after our pets and house while we were away, frequently without cell reception. She was able to help with a last-minute shifting of our cars when we unexpectedly found out our parking lot was getting repaved. Anne was able to come and meet the animals and get a tour of the house ahead of time and asked appropriate questions to make sure it would all be taken care of well. I'm sure she had her hands full with our new puppy (who is still potty training) and a cat who is adjusting to both him and a new house, so we were glad that she was able to work from our house to give them more attention. We returned to a clean house and two very happy animals. Thanks Anne!”
“Antonia provided great care to our dog when we left her for the first time while traveling! She sent photos multiple times a day and even took our pup to the park! We will definitely ask her to care for our animals again!”
“So glad we booked Tim to watch our dogs and house sit during spring break! He was prompt, responsive to text messages, and conscientious about making sure the dogs had the best care possible. We will definitely book him again for future vacations!”
“Michael was a great find! We had a last-minute change before going on vacation and needed someone to stay at our home with our husky. Michael came to our rescue and was awesome. Great communication and a great young man to watch our dog and our home.”
“Madi is a 💎 gem of a sitter. She always keeps me posted on how the day is. Honeybear enjoys having poppy the pug some stay with Madi too. And Madi just goes above and by one even helping me with my new mattress set up today. Not having anyone else around this is by far above and beyond the call of a dog sitter. And when Madi came back today Honeybear gave her a big greeting than I did when I got home. This is a true testament to the care and love she gets when Madi is her sitter!!! 🩷❤️❤️💛💜💙🩵💚thank you Madi!”
“Second time having Kylee in our home to sit for our pup and it went really well! Our dog was completely relaxed with her, and she’s usually anxious when we’re gone. Two thumbs up!”
“Amanda took exceptional care of Daisy while I was out of town for a few days. Daisy had just had a small surgery on her shoulder and Amanda was very diligent about making sure Daisy got her pain meds and followed the post-op instructions I left perfectly. She was very communicative and I felt confident Daisy was in good hands while I was away.”
“Margaret was amazing with Oly, very frequent with updates, and overall communication. Oly didnt want to leave when I picked him up. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Han did a wonderful job with our dog for 8 days! Our dog responded positively to her at the meet & greet and you could see Han’s affection for dogs. Throughout our vacation Han was communicating and sending pictures of our dog. She was kind and respectful and did a great job sitting our golden doodle in our family home. I would highly recommend Han - we look forward to booking her again.”
“Jessica was awesome - she communicated regularly, sending great photos and updates, along with getting our mail. She left our house super clean and we would love to work with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We trust Lorene with our senior dog and with our home while we are away on vacation. She has an excellent communication style, pays attention to all of the details of managing our dog and our home, and navigates all of it in a professional manner. No hesitation to rebook with Lorene!”
“Kelly did an amazing job house-sitting and taking care of our Golden while we were away for an extended weekend. She was responsible, communicative, and great about sending us pictures - giving us peace of mind while we were away. The house was spotless and exactly as we left it, and it was clear that Huckleberry was well cared for and happy. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunn Loring
I highly recommend Breidy! They were dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. My pet was comfortable, happy, and well cared for, and I really appreciated the regular communication and updates. It was such a relief knowing my pet was with someone responsible and trustworthy. I would definitely book with them again!
She was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet, caring, and attentive with my dog, and he absolutely loved her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! ❤️🐾
Madi is our #1 booked dog sitter for a reason! She is so caring, gentle, and professional, our pup always gets so excited to see her. She makes weekend trips a breeze, and we don’t have to worry about leaving our dog with someone for multiple nights. She does a great job executing his routine, keeping us informed, and leaves our house cleaner than when she left it. Love having Madi to help our Strudel!
Alice is fabulous! She was absolutely wonderful with our little morkie! She was caring, attentive, dependable and kept us updated while we were away giving us complete peace of mind. It was clear from the moment we met Alice that she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility very seriously. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a spotless home! She even cared for my 97 year old mother while we were gone, running errands for her and helping with meals. We can’t say enough wonderful things about Alice!! She is an angel.
Amanda has house/dog sat for our two pups for the last couple of years, and she is simply the best. Not only has she done all of the ordinary things wonderfully—being timely, taking care of all of the doggie meds, taking them for great walks, sending cute pics, keeping the place spotless, etc—but she has gone above and beyond countless times for us. Taking care of the pups on short notice and extending stays when life has thrown emergencies at us, shuttling them to the vets, and taking great care of our home, plants, and cars. You name it. And the best thing is she gives them love. We are moving, alas, and will truly miss Amanda. But if you are lucky enough to have her watch your pets and homes, you will thank me for steering her your way.
Katie took wonderful care of Henry while we were away at the beach! Henry has anxiety with new people and Katie was willing to come meet and spend time with him twice before our trip, to make she he was comfortable with her. She was communicative, thoughtful, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. We loved getting updates and could tell Henry was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. She was reliable, attentive, and treated him like she was her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything. We’d absolutely book with Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their dog!

FAQs for House Sitting - Dunn Loring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dunn Loring on Rover is $51.73 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 10,166 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dunn Loring. 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 Dunn Loring 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 Dunn Loring 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 Dunn Loring 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
