“Stacie takes such incredible care of our cats and our home! It always warms my heart coming back to our kitties so happy and themselves. It's obvious to me how comfortable they must be in Stacie's care and we couldn't be more grateful. I always know my house and my little fur babies are in the best hands they could be when we work with Stacie. Thank you again for another amazing stay with our boys! ❤️”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 9 and truly can’t imagine life without them. I grew up with a black lab, Zida, and my family also has Riley, who is now 16 and has given me lots of experience caring for senior dogs and their changing needs. I adopted my own dog, Sarabi, as a puppy almost 6 years ago and spent a lot of time training her and helping her work through shyness, anxiety, and separation anxiety. She’s now my best buddy! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, from puppies and high-energy dogs to anxious dogs who need extra patience and seniors who need a little more care. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, crates, oral medications, special diets, walks, basic training routines, and lots of playtime and cuddles. The biggest thing for me is meeting each dog where they are. When I meet a new dog, I let them approach me on their terms and never force an interaction. Some dogs want to be best friends immediately, while others need time and space, and I’m completely comfortable with both. I want your dog to feel safe and comfortable with me while you’re away. I work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with your dog throughout the day. For house sitting, I’m happy to work remotely from your home, so your dog can have company, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends depending on my schedule. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your dog, and I’ll always follow your routines and instructions while in your home. I’m very attentive to each dog’s personality and boundaries and will never force interaction with a dog who needs time or space. I’m comfortable with crates, feeding schedules, oral medications, special diets, and dogs with anxiety or other individual needs. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me

About: I've had dogs my entire life. I adopted my new best friend Blu about a year ago, a Terrier-Schnauzer mix, and he's changed our lives. I love Chicago and how dog friendly the city is. I know how much work is involved in dog care, but also what a source of happiness dogs bring to a home, and I'm always looking to do work that I find genuinely fulfilling. “Happiness is a warm puppy.” —Charles M. Schulz

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with a dog trainer for a parent, aside from our own dogs, we would have clients’ Dogs stay with us as a kenneling alternative. Im super comfortable around them and can’t wait to fill my house with them one day! I am not in a position to have my own, yet, and this is a wonderful way to get my “fix”... kind of like my nieces and nephews, have fun with them but give them back ;) I would love to take care of your baby and give them love and attention in your absence. I love walking and am active! I’m a full time hairstylist and have a range of availability. Thank you so much!

About: Vacation with peace of mind knowing your beloved canine family member will be safe and happy; and perhaps, a bit overly loved. There’s always lots of play and pamper time and all walks are free! I’ll gladly keep in direct contact with you providing pictures and videos throughout each. I will lay with your fur babies, play outside, go on walks/adventures, relax and watch movies. I love all animals and believe they deserve to have a good time even when their owner cannot be home. I have always been an animal lover, i never felt like watching them was work, just fun. I respect the owner's wishes for anything they need me to do in order to give their animal the best experience while I am watching them. I am always home since I’m a full time grooming student @ Animal Behavior College. My long term goal is to open up a pet and spa resort one day! 🐾 I believe that daily exercise, games, mental challenges and proper socialization is necessary for your pup to live a long and happy life! We think it’s so important that we do it for our pup and of course yours while you are away. I have a fenced in back area and 2 fur babies myself to keep your pup company. We have extra crated if needed and loads of toys to keep them happy! If alone time is their thing, they are always allowed to cuddle with us on our furniture! If a drop- in, I am very good at following concise instructions to insure happy and safe animals while you’re away! I am always home as I’m a mom of three. Your pet will get lots of one on one attention from me. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I have a fenced yard outside area and lots of toys. Also, I have a pool for my fur friends to play and cool off in during the summer! Your fur baby will feel at home and will receive lots of love and cuddles.

About: Hi! I’m from Brazil and looking for pet sitting opportunities in my free time. I have two dogs back home — one is a 9-year-old pitbull with skin cancer, and the other is a rescue who also survived cancer. My love for animals runs deep. I’ve always cared for them with all my heart, and I’d be happy to do the same for your pet! Pet sitting fits perfectly into my life because it combines my love for animals with my flexible schedule. Taking care of pets feels natural to me — it’s something I truly enjoy and do with heart. I’m available for dog walks and pet sitting at your home!

“We had a wonderful experience with Nikera! She stayed in our home while we were away and took great care of our pets and home. She kept us updated throughout the trip with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our home was well cared for, and it was clear everyone received lots of attention and love. She also went above and beyond by staying late to accommodate our travel schedule, which we truly appreciated. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful travel day much easier. She was communicative, reliable, and easy to work with from start to finish. We really appreciated knowing our pets and home were such good hands while we were away and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Dunstable

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Dunstable on Rover is $78 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $128 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 4,193 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dunstable. 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 Dunstable 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 Dunstable 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Dunstable 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 , 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 .

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dunstable. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
