“I am so delighted that we picked Han to take care of our dog. Han is totally reliable, extremely kind and conscientious, trustworthy, and she genuinely loves being with dogs. I would recommend her 100% to anyone!”
“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!”
“Anne was amazing with my puppy! I had a 3 month old puppy and was going out town for the first time and it was a short notice. She was cooperative, kind and great communicator. While I was away, she’d sent me pictures of my puppy a couple of times a day and when I returned home, my dog looked happy and safe. Highly recommend having Anne to watch your pet!”
“I recently booked Juan to stay at my place while traveling and he did a great job. He provided me with daily updates about the walks, potty times, and feeding (since my dog is a little picky eater). He definitely took care of my dog as if he was his. My place was left cleaned and organized. I will add Juan as my primary in house dog sitter. Highly recommended. Thank you Juan!”
“Oriana was fabulous when staying in our home and taking care of our 12 year old Havanese. First, she offered to do a meet and greet in person before our vacation. Then while we were away for 10 days, she sent daily photo updates and was extremely responsive. She left our house in even cleaner condition than it was when she arrived, and was even thoughtful enough to replace the milk in our refrigerator. Would love to have her again and highly recommend Oriana!”
“Elizabeth is a great dog and house sitter! Our two dogs were very happy and our house was so clean like she had not been here at all! She was very communicative and responsive! Will definitely use again.”
“We were grateful for Sophia to care for our home and pets. She did a great job and was very professional, and cared for everything well. We would recommend her and would work with her again.”
“Morgan was exactly the sitter our pups needed! We were able to go on our trip without any worries at all. Her updates were regular and showed what a great time they were having. One of our dogs is quite particular when it comes to sitters and they were fast friends. House was left spotless and all mail and packages were brought in. Could not recommend Morgan more!”
“Kayly bonded with our animals so quickly and helped us feel at ease with leaving our older animals at home. Her communication was frequent which we loved! Highly recommend Kayly!”
“Korrey was amazing! He was very attentive and understand with my concerns regarding general care, as well as my dog’s previous health issues. He kept me up to date with everything they were doing from her behavior, her day-to-day routine, etc.! He was extremely charismatic and went the extra mile for my girl. I will definitely be booking with him again when I need services!”
“This is the first time I’ve felt comfortable leaving any of my dogs with someone else. It was obvious when I came home from my trip that my dog was well cared for. She was happy and extremely well adjusted. Also. Seth left the house spotless.”
“Renee was lovely. She seemed to have a visceral, almost immediate rapport with my dog, Romeo. Perhaps because she wasn’t glued to a smartphone or distracted by any screen whatsoever, Renee responded promptly to my queries and communications. A very unusual scenario these days I think. Her opinions and observations stemmed from years of experience and success in the field and were a comfort to hear. I would gladly hire her again.”
“My dogs quickly warmed up to Phuong when she sat for them in my house. She was prompt and sent lots of pictures and made sure they got enough activity! We would definitely use Phuong for pet sitting again!”
“Jackson sat for our dog over Spring Break for a week and took excellent care of him. My dog ordinarily is suspicious of men and keeps his guard up for quite a while before he trusts a male visitor to our house. But Jackson is a true dog whisperer, because they were playing tug o war and fetch within 10 minutes of their first meeting! Jackson left our home in great condition and was polite and communicative throughout. We appreciated receiving photos and videos during the week that provided peace of mind. Would definitely recommend this responsible and lovely young man.”
“Antonia did a great job with all of my pets. One of my cats threw a curveball and decided to hide even though she needed an important pill. Antonia was very patient with her and kept me informed the entire time. The house was clean and well looked after when I returned. I would definitely recommend Antonia and I plan to see if she's available for future trips!”
“Jennifer was fantastic! She went above and beyond with her communication and how she took care of Chase. I got constant updates and pictures. She was extremely attentive and took care of Chase like he was her own.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunn Loring
YASMEEN IS AWESOME!! Yasmeen cared for my two cats and my home for two and a half weeks while I was out of the country. I cannot say enough good things about her. At our meet and greet, she was warm and friendly and asked excellent questions. Any anxiety I had about being gone for so long disappeared after meeting Yasmeen. While I was gone, Yasmeen was proactive in sending updates, pictures and video of the cats. One had just started needing medicine with her meals, and Yasmeen handled that with ease. I could tell from the video updates that my cats felt comfortable with her - and in fact one of them shared lots of cuddles and play time. When I returned, my house was just as I left it, and the cats were happy and healthy. I'm sure they miss her! I am so grateful to Yasmeen and will definitely work with her again!
Gregory (Dean), was a terrific house sitter for our large mixed breed boy while we took a bucket list vacation for two weeks. He took good care of both our dog and our home, watered plants, brought in mail, and did great job bonding with our sometimes shy guy. I would absolutely recommend him.
Anne was great! She stayed two nights with our Lab, and she was very communicative and just generally on top of things. She was very careful with him with the extreme heat and gave him frequent but short breaks outside. She asked good questions and was very attentive to his needs and his routines. She also went above and beyond and voluntarily returned to walk him one more time before she left town. We would absolutely recommend Anne, and will absolutely try to book her again in the future.
Ellie was fantastic - very communicative, reliable, and attentive throughout the stay. She took excellent care of my dog, who has been dealing with some health issues, and gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a dependable pet or house sitter.
Clare did a fantastic job house sitting and watching our dog for 12 days. She kept us well informed and shared lots of pictures so we could see how he was doing every day. When the power went out for an extended period, she was on top of things and even offered to take our dog to her home until power returned. I would definately use her services again and highly recommend her as a provider.
Kaylee was absolutely wonderful with my two teacup pups! From the moment I met her, we felt completely at ease knowing our babies were in such caring and capable hands. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Kaylee kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dogs and treated them like her own. When I returned home, our pups were relaxed, happy, and clearly loved. My home was also well taken care of, and everything was exactly as I left it. I couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter. I highly recommend Kaylee to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate sitter. I will definitely be booking her again!
Sarah took wonderful care of our dog, Marley. She sent lots of photo updates throughout his stay. We always felt confident that Marley was safe, happy, and well cared for in her hands. We were especially grateful for Sarah’s flexibility when our flight home was canceled unexpectedly. She was able to extend her care and watch Marley for an extra morning until we could get home, which was an enormous help during a stressful travel situation. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring sitter.
Ozgenur was an absolutely amazing sitter for the weekend! She came over for a last minute meet and greet the day before we left. She was so professional and gave us lots of updates throughout the weekend. Our two dogs were so well cared for and I could tell they were so comfortable with her. We will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Dunn Loring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dunn Loring on Rover is $49.95 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 10,177 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.

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.
