“If you are going out of town and want the absolute best dog sitter by a landslide - pick Eni. We went out of town for 4 nights and she took photos and chatted with us multiple times a day to check in. I cannot say enough, honestly. I have never felt so assured and confident that everything with my dog and home would be in fantastic hands. Will book her again every time.”

“Although Jonathan (Jack) has a profile that is new to Rover, he does a FANTASTIC job in caring for animals and has tons of previous experience. Jack watched our 2 dogs in our home while we were away for several days. He was communicative, let us know how the dogs were doing and updated us with photos. We were able to take our vacation with peace of mind that our dogs were being well cared for, and it certainly showed when we returned home to get back into our normal routine. We will certainly rebook with Jack in the future!”

“Katie was absolutely incredible and I truly cannot recommend her enough!! From the very start, I could tell Luigi felt comfortable with her which says EVERYTHING!! The moment she got out of her car to greet us, he immediately took to her and that is not something he does with everyone. She provided so many updates and pictures which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I never once had to wonder how he was doing. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was her honesty. Instead of just saying everything was perfect (which other sitters have said while I knew he wasn’t perfectly fine), she shared that Luigi definitely missed us. I appreciated that more than anything because it showed how in tune she was with him. Even better, she didn’t just leave it at that. She actively worked to engage him and get him moving which is so important for a dog’s mental well being. She took him on walks, paid close attention to his needs, and truly treated him like her own. You can tell Katie genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. Luigi and I are both so grateful to have found her!!!”

“Filip watched my dog Tula for 10 days while I was out of town. He left the house clean, shoveled a ton of snow, and most importantly, took excellent care of my girl! Would definitely recommend Filip for your pet care needs. :)”
“Elaine was an absolute lifesaver for us! Last minute, she stepped in with kindness and genuine love for both our mini Bernedoodle and kitten, making our first time away from them so much easier. She stayed right in our home, creating a cozy and familiar environment that kept our fur babies calm and happy. Throughout the day, we received adorable photos and thoughtful updates that truly put our minds at ease. If you’re a pet owner on the hunt for an amazing sitter, look no further—Elaine is the one you want! Her care went above and beyond, and it was clear she treated our pets like her own. We’re beyond grateful and can’t wait to have Elaine back again—such a wonderful, heartwarming experience all around!”

“Kara was great with Mike & Gwladys, they were very well cared for. She was great at communicating and â good sport about Gwladys being a bit sassy. We would definitely use her again.”

“John G looked after our two medium sized dogs and 18-year-old cat for five days in our home. John was communicative punctual great with the dogs and personable. I would not hesitate to recommend John as a Pet Sitter.”

“Dana is absolutely wonderful. Our pup took her almost instantly and was as happy as can be all weekend with her. Dana is kind, on time, a great communicator and reliable. She also sent me lots of pictures while were gone which I love! Our home also looked to be in the exact condition we left it in. I highly recommend Dana for all your puppy sitting needs!”


About: Willing to be trained, lol. But seriously paying attention to detail and keeping all pets healthy is key to caring for the pet and friend. Part time work now and care here is part time pay. It fits in quite naturally as pets keep ya healthy just walking around . I have them inside and take for long walks around the peaceful community at the Christian Retreat. Whatever activity that is needed can be achieved.

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and have always had a doggie companion. I have been dog sitting now for more than seven years and love it! I take pride in welcoming your fur babies into my home as another member of the family. I have two Maltese boys that love to play with other furry friends as well. I welcome your doggy into our home and do our best to make sure they are loved, played with, and well-cared for. I also welcome any questions! I work from home and am available all day to take the babies out for walks, make sure they get plenty of love and attention. Many will curl up in my lap to nap while I work. At night, we have plenty of doggy beds and one large human one where all are welcome to join. My home is located in a safe and gated community. Moreover, I have a healthcare background and am attentive to doggy nutrition, activity, and overall health. I have experience in caring for older pups, and pups with special medication schedules.

“Kristen was so great! She was easy to work with, communicated, and most importantly, took great care of my dog. Kristen stayed with my dog at our house and made sure she was never left alone for too long, had enough exercise, and got lots of extra attention. And she kept me updated with photos the entire time. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”

“Adela did a great job and communicated really well. The cats were very happy because she kept their routine the same and made sure they had everything they needed. One of our cats needed eye drops, and she did a good job giving them to him. She stayed over and left our house so clean. I highly recommend her for cat and house sitting. 😊”

“Gerald seems to excel at whatever does, this we learned after getting to know him. We took a short vacation, leaving our dog Babette in his care. He kept us fully informed with emails and photos. We returned home to find a happy and well cared-for dog. Thank you Gerald!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine! I regularly pet sit two Pit Bulls for a neighbor several times a year in their home, care for two Goldendoodles for a family who travels frequently, and often care for a close friend’s pets while they travel for work. I also occasionally provide short-term pet sitting in my own home. I offer walks, potty breaks, playtime, check-ins, feedings, transportation to groomers, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I also have experience with farm care, including feeding cows, chickens, and ducks and collecting eggs. Growing up, I had a cat who lived to 19 and a German Shepherd/Husky who lived to 13. As a young adult, I lived on a small property with cows, ducks, chickens, an Australian Shepherd, two Pit Bulls, and two cats. In high school, aside from working in fast food and my dual enrollment diploma to degree program, I made extra money by babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting for local neighbors and snowbirds. I currently don’t have pets of my own, which means I have plenty of availability to give yours the time, attention, exercise, and love they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for! 🐾❤️ Currently I have open availability for your pet’s needs and schedule! My daily routine would consist of how your pets day looks, so let’s coordinate schedules! I currently do not care for pets on my own home, but care for them just as they are always cared for in your home! Whatever your pet usually has, is exactly what they’ll receive unless you have a specific system for a sitter ☺️. My goal is to allow for as much normalcy for the pet as possible!
About: I will walk the dogs multiple times a day and night, if needed. My puppy can come along with me as a friend to play with for your pet if interested, he loves all pets! I am very attentive and loving and take dogs with me everywhere I go, if they are able and want to. I am overall very flexible, loving, attentive, accommodating, and interact with all pets in my own constantly - whether that be talking to them, playing with them in and outside, brushing, petting them while they rest and giving treats (if allowed). Sebastian is my puppy and he is still learning about the world but very sweet and adjusts to all pets if you want me to bring him for your furbaby to have a friend also! If not thats ok too, I am only caring for pets in their own home though and happy to take them to parks etc to play if prefer! I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and make my own schedule. I walk multiple times a day as well as go to dog parks that are safe where I know the regulars. I am very loving, attentive, flexible and experienced. I was a Nanny for high profile families in Los Angeles & DC. I have been a Certified Nanny & Caregiver for disabled children, teens and adults as well as a Petsitter, Housesitter, and Personal Assistsnt to CEO’s for 20 years before I switched to working from home. I have experience in countless homes and family dynamics with a variety of pets, children, rules and preferences for pets and home care. I am open to dogs in training as I am still training my own as well. He has an overall very playful then relaxed demeanor, and loves all animals I petsit!

FAQs for House Sitting - Edgeville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 974 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edgeville. 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 Edgeville 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 Edgeville 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 Edgeville 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
