“Paula is amazing! I loved all of the photos she sent, and she was great at communicating. My dogs looooved her. She tidied the house and had the sheets in the wash— really appreciated her extra effort.”
“Pazao was and is a dream! She took the BEST care of our almost 4 year old English Bull Terrier and we couldn’t have asked for more! She also house sat during her time with Biggie Duane and we are so thankful for the peace her care brought to us. If we could give a 10 star review we would! Thank you Pazao for everything!”

“Michelle is great. I would definitely recommend her to any friends and family who want their pets well taken care of. She took care of my puppy for a week and was very communicative, focused on training and getting outside.”
About: I’ve had at least three dogs in my house growing up whether they were old or puppies, so I know how to potty train and take care of any age dog. I currently don’t have a job so your pups would have all my attention! I’m available to house sit when needed, I’m free all day. I make sure your pups always have what they need. Whether that’s needing to go outside, go on a walk, or even just getting some pets in.
“Hannah was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! Both of our boys are pretty anxious and take some time to warm up to new people, but Hannah immediately put our minds at ease during the meet-and-greet. She took such great care of them throughout the day, and we loved getting the cutest update photos of our boys having a great time with her! 🐶❤️ Thank you again, Hannah, for taking such wonderful care of our dogs and allowing us to enjoy our day out of town without worrying. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for! We truly appreciate you! 🥰”
About: I’ve pet-sat for multiple families, feeding, walking, playing, grooming. I've had my own dog and cat in the past and currently have 2 bunnies. I’m very comfortable around and absolutely love all pets! I am very active and love a good, long walk with a dog or playing at the park! I have a very open schedule and available every day for some extent of pet care. I am pretty available any and all times of the day as well. It is a regular part of my routine for my own pets. I will follow any rules/typical routines you have for your pets, anything you need to be done. Can stop by for multiple check ins during the day
“Halston was fantastic! He followed every single instruction I left for my dog and made sure he stayed on his routine, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. His communication was excellent. He sent regular updates with photos and videos, so I always knew how my pup was doing. Most importantly, it was clear how much he truly cared for my dog. When I came home, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I will absolutely be booking again. Thank you so much!”
“We have booked with Hannah multiple times and our dog always seems relaxed and well taken care of. We had to go home for 2 weeks and we are so happy for the attentive care and responsiveness. She will continue to be our go to!”
About: Hello! My name is Kenzie and I am excited to be your pets friend!! I have experience with many different types of animals, as I’ve worked with neighbor and friends animals as well as at a petting zoo that over the last 14 years. Within that experience I have handled reptiles, rodents, small pigs, dogs and cats! There are obviously many animals I have yet to have a lot of experience with, but I am amazing at following well detailed instructions. I am happy and excited to get as many photos or check ins as makes each individual pet parent happy and comfortable. As an added bonus, my eldest cat has been on insulin shots twice a day for four years now. So I am familiar with handling animal’s for shots, and I’ve also had to administer pills as well. Thank you for your time and consideration! I have a fairly flexible schedule and am more than willing to work with pet parents on days and times that work for them. My availability on the weekend may vary, but I am usually pretty open during the week. I do not plan to bring peoples animals into my home for the time being as I have special need animals of my own that would not fair well with it
“Alicia was wonderful with my two corgis. She took such great care of them, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands while I was away. She also took excellent care of my home, watered the garden, and left everything incredibly tidy. It was such a pleasure to come home to happy dogs and a well cared for house. I would absolutely trust Alicia with my pets and home again and highly recommend her!”
“Would quadruple these stars if I could. Rachel was fantastic! Gave updates every day(throughout the day too), sent pictures and videos, kept our pup entertained and cuddled. Really gave me peace of mind that my dog was in good hands:) Definitely recommend”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I worked at a doggy daycare and so i have skills in handling, feeding, paw and ear treatments, boarding and overnight care. I currently work part time which is in the early mornings, so I’ll have all day to give your pets the attention they deserve and love they need!! Depending on whether your yards fenced or not i’ll do as requested for their potty breaks. I give all my attention to animals when i’m with them, and I’d love to go on walks with your pup!
“Daisy was great and we would recommend her to anyone. She was our first pet/house sitter ever and she made our experience great. We came home and the house looked just like we left. She was great at sending pictures and video updates while we were away as well. Responsive, friendly, good w/ animals. Would absolutely book again.”
“Yvette was amazing with my baby Dior! She kept me updated and was so patient and kind. She ended up getting so many snuggles and kisses!! She made going out the easiest time as I had nothing to worry about with Dior. I will definitely use her again!! Yvette was amazing!!!”
About: I’m home Monday–Friday and available on weekends with advance notice. I live in Beachcrest, with a private trail to the beach and plenty of dog-friendly parks nearby. If your pet loves exploring, they’ll have plenty of opportunities for beach adventures, walks, and play! My home has a large deck and yard, though the yard is unfenced. Pets often enjoy sunbathing on the deck or checking out my fish ponds. I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for family, friends, and colleagues for as long as I can remember. I have experience with pet first aid, medication administration, and senior animals, and I’ll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is to make your pet feel right at home. I'm very flexible so just message me and I can find a time to accommodate you. Whether it's early morning or late at night. I'll be there! Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and keeping pets comfortable in their normal routine. When I arrive, I like to have a little pow-wow with the pets and, yes, I sometimes have conversations with them. 😂 I’ll always make sure they have clean bowls, fresh food and water, and plenty of potty breaks, along with any walks, medications, or special care they need. Most importantly, I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away.

Zoey response was very prompt on my short notice request. Within hours she made arrangements for a meet and greet. She was very attentive with our discussion of the boys feeding plan and a walk around the neighborhood. Wonderful to see photos of the boys. We have plans for her to take care of the boys again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in DuPont on Rover is $37.45 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 2,438 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in DuPont. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
