“Kim was amazing with our 2 fur babies ! She made it so easy and eased our minds about leaving our puppets at home under her care. Falkor and Seraphina immediately took to Kim and were sad when it was time for her to go home. Highly recommend Kim ❣️❣️❣️🐾🐾🐾🐾”

“My first use of Rover is a big hit! Karen sent picks to brighten my day and my Barney seemed perfectly content when I arrived home. Thank you, Karen! Will look for your availability in the future.”

“Allison did a great job sitting with our dog while we were on vacation. She asked questions and sent pictures to let us know our pup was ok. We will definitely use Allison again.”

“Maya and Griffin LOVE Sofia as do I! She takes excellent care of them as well as our home. Very respectful of our place, totally trustworthy, and very dependable. I'm so thankful to have her as our dog sitter.”

“Rachel was excellent. This was Oliver’s first time having someone other than us come in his home and stay with him. It takes him some time to get comfortable with people he does not know. Rachel made this experience for Oliver and us great. Rachel came over to visit Oliver multiple times prior to scheduled house sitting and Oliver was bonding well with Rachel. When we left for our trip, we left with great peace of mind. We received regular updates while we were gone. I cannot thank Rachel enough for taking the time to make this an excellent experience.”

“Emma was fantastic! We have five dogs and two cats and I was nervous about leaving the Country for a week. We definitely have a house full and Emma handled everything professionally and treated our dogs like her own. She was very communicative and set pictures often. The house was tidy when we got back and all of our pets where well taken care of. We would 💯 hire Emma again.”

“Lindsey made me feel super at ease as a first time Rover user. I needed someone to house sit as well as pet sit and she made sure everything and everyone was well taken care of! When we arrived home the house was clean and the pets were happy! Highly recommend.”


About: I’m a dedicated, full-time pet caregiver with nearly five years of professional dog walking and pet sitting experience. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether your furry family member is a high-energy puppy, a sweet senior citizen, or a pet who simply thrives with a patient, gentle handler, I tailor my care to fit their unique personality. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my absolute top priorities! My background also includes extensive experience in administering medications, following individualized feeding/exercise plans, and closely monitoring health and behavior. Beyond my hands-on time with animals, my professional background in corporate guest relations sharpened my communication and client service skills. Working in progressive customer service taught me how to stay completely calm under pressure, handle multiple priorities smoothly, and build strong relationships rooted in empathy. I bring that exact same high level of professionalism, reliability, and clear communication straight to you, so you can have total peace of mind while you are away. I am dependable, organized, and truly committed to treating your home and your pets with the utmost kindness and respect. I can't wait to meet your beloved companions! Pet care is my top priority, and my highly flexible schedule allows me to dedicate myself fully to pet sitting in your home! I am available to stay on-site nearly all day, ensuring your pet enjoys plenty of love, play, and consistent supervision in their own familiar environment. On the rare occasion that I need to step out for errands, it is only ever for a few quick hours. Your sweet pet will rarely be left alone and will get all the dedicated attention, comfort, and premium care they deserve right at home! My top priority when pet sitting in your home is maintaining your pet's normal routine to keep them safe, happy, and stress-free. I stay on-site nearly all day, strictly following your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, and exercise. I love keeping pets active with personalized playtime and neighborhood walks, but I also make sure they get plenty of cozy companionship and attention. I monitor their health and behavior closely, keep their living and litter areas spotless, and send you regular photo updates so you always have total peace of mind!

“Our fur babies loved hanging out with Nicole! She was available on short notice and sent us photos of our babies while we were out. We will absolutely request Nicole next time we are visiting the area!”

“Kristen took excellent care of my cats. She has a calm, friendly presence, and my cats responded very well to her. All three, especially the two Ragdolls, are very attached and tend to follow people around like little puppies, and they were clearly comfortable with her.”

“Telecia was amazing! 🤩 super easy to work with and willing to help us on such a quick turn around! She arrived timely and was super great with the pups from the beginning! We highly recommend her!”

“Absolutely fantastic! She took care of my fur babies while I attended a birthday party. Highly recommend her! Super calm personality keeps the dogs relaxed. They were happy and worn out when she left. If you need”

“Five stars isn’t enough — Preston is the real deal. As professional dog daycare and boarding operators, we have extremely high standards for who we trust with our animals and our home. Preston didn’t just meet those standards — he obliterated them. Our four boys were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved when we got home. The house was spotless. And Preston had already handled everything. Here’s what truly set him apart: he noticed an ear infection developing in one of our dogs — something that requires a practiced, attentive eye — arranged transportation to and from the vet, cleaned the ear, and administered the post-visit medication. All on his own. That’s not just good pet sitting. That’s genuine expertise and real initiative. We’ve been in the pet care industry. We know what great care looks like. Preston is the rare kind of sitter you hope exists but rarely find on any platform. If you’re on the fence about booking him — stop deliberating. Book Preston. We won’t use anyone else.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dupont on Rover is $69.93 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 653 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dupont. 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 Dupont 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 Dupont 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 Dupont 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.
