“Elba is the absolute best pet sitter!!!! We went away for vacation and needed around the clock care. Elba was very thorough with the instructions and information we gave her. She took care of our animals as if they were her own. She gave updates every single day and sent the best pictures. Our animals were so happy and loved while we were away. And Elba even went above and beyond when we had a tree branch from a neighboring yard fall during a storm and damage our fence. She kept me notified and sent pictures. I would absolutely recommend Elba for anyone who is looking for a trustworthy person to care for your pets! We will most definitely be using Elba in the future to take care of our fur babies!!!!!!!”
“Devona was so amazing with my Murphy! Great communication, would send me an update twice a day as she stayed at my place with my baby. Left my place clean as well and picked up after Murphy! Will most definitely be booking with her again. Thank you Devona!”
“Dwight is extremely accommodating and friendly. He goes above and beyond to take care of our dog, Keaton. We know Keaton will be in amazing hands when Dwight is taking care of him. We hope to have Dwight care for Keaton for more vacations and long days of ours in the future!”
“Hailey is very kind and friendly. She did a good job with Ginger making sure felt comfortable for the overnight stay. Ginger warmed up to her and Hailey kept me updated with pictures and texts.”
“Marie is the BEST! I am so thankful that I left my sweet, sometimes challenging, senior dog with Marie during my trip to Europe. Marie is confident with all kinds of medications and based on all of the photos she sent, my dog enjoyed was beyond loved and happy the whole time. Traveling with the comfort, knowing that my pup was taken care of meant everything to me. Thank you, Marie!!”
“Juli is the best! She writes beautiful diaries about my Lui and Maple’s day. You can see she takes great pride in her work. She also takes amazing pictures and videos. I’m really grateful for her.”
“Kiri watched our dogs in our home and she did a great job. She was on time, took the time for our sometimes timid dogs to get comfortable and she sent lots of pictures. Our boys seemed happy when we came home!”
“If I could give Nickolas 10 stars, I would! He was literally perfect. Very professional and an outstanding communicator. The whole time I was gone, he provided daily updates with pictures. I was anxious about leaving my Skye Sissy with anyone whom she didn't know, but she loved him from the minute he met her. I felt confident leaving, I did not worry because I know that she was in capable and loving hands. Bravo to Nickolas for simply being AWESOME!”
“This was a last minute trip to Orlando an Danny is about as sweet and caring as they come. We have never left our Poncho with anyone so far from home. He kept in touch a sent pictures and was so attentive to our requests a spoiling of my baby. We will definitely use him again in this area. I highly recommend Danny”
“Dalia is great! She watched my house and my cat, Lana, overnight for a few days while I was on vacation. Dalia sent lots of updates and cute pictures, even a little action shot of Lana jumping off her tree! Lana is the only pet in the house but she’s a cuddler and very social cat and it was so comforting knowing Dalia was there to play with her and keep her company. It really helped me enjoy my time away. When I returned Lana was her usual self which tells me she was cared for like I’d never left. I will absolutely be asking Dalia again, and you should too if you’re looking for a reliable and communicative animal lover to take care of your best bud!”
“I am thankful and grateful to Katarina. She stayed overnight with my three dogs for the weekend. She was reliable communicated well and sent pictures throught her stay. My dogs can be a handful but were relaxed and comfortable with her. Would recommend her and look forward to using her again.”
“Mariia was absolutely amazing with lotus and coco. Thanks to her I was finally able to enjoy a vacation worry and stress free. I’ve used Rover once in the past and had an awful experience with two different people canceling on me a day and two days before my trip and then the sitter that finally agreed to watch them, canceling on me after I left for my trip. My dogs can be super crazy at first and need some time getting used to someone new. Mariia came over once to meet them for a bit and then came over early the day I was leaving to spend some time with them before I left and that really helped my dogs get comfortable with her. I definitely over worry any time I’m away from my dogs and stress about whether they’re being good, but she stayed in contact with me every day sending messages and photos and it really helped me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my dogs. I’m so happy I’ve finally found someone that I can rely on to watch them when I go on vacation. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“This was my first time using Rover for my 4 dogs and Colleen was amazing! She had great communication through the entire stay and I felt like my dogs were in great hands. I was not worried for a minute while they were in her care. I will definitely be rebooking Colleen in the future.”
“Jennifer did a great job the past 9 days house sitting and caring for our Cory. Cory was in great spirits when we returned home and our house was clean & orderly. We would definitely recommend her for future needs. Thanks Jen!”
“Autumn was Fabulous!! She is friendly, a great communicater, and sent me pictures throughout her time in my house. I have 3 goldendoodles and they gave her a 5 out of 5 review. Just watching my girls interact with her gave me such peace. The pictures captured their personalities and their smiles. I highly recommend Autumn for your pets needs.”
“Lauren was amazing! She sent pictures of my dog daily and let me know what was going on. My dog seemed so happy and was clearly enjoying the play time, walks and all the attention. I will absolutely use Lauren again.”
“I cannot recommend Logan highly enough. From our very first interaction, he was professional, communicative, and genuinely invested in making sure my dog felt comfortable and cared for. What impressed me most was the level of attention and care he provided. He was consistently reliable, arrived when expected, sent thoughtful updates, and clearly took the time to get to know my dog’s personality, needs, and routines. It gave me tremendous peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. My dog absolutely adores him, which says more than I ever could. It’s obvious that he genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were his own. Every walk left my dog happy, exercised, and excited for the next visit. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, dependable, kind, and truly exceptional with dogs, look no further. Finding someone you can confidently trust with your pet is rare, and Logan has earned my highest recommendation. I would not hesitate to book with him again and will continue to do so whenever I need help caring for my dog.”

Paula (aka Maria) was excellent! Another sitter that I had booked months ago for a trip out of the country cancelled at the last minute (2 weeks before departure) and that's when I found Paula. She came for a meet and greet, asked all the right questions and we agreed we were a great fit. She took exceptionally great care of my home and my pup while I was away. She updated me daily with pictures, took care of getting the mail, watching the pool water levels and all the little things that needed attention while I was away...including making sure I had enough food for my pup when I got back. She made sure the house was left "better than she found it", something not all sitters do. I am most grateful for the peace of mind I had while away.
We had another successful booking with Elba!!!! She is the best! She sent updates everyday and tons of pictures of our fur babies❤️ And she and her husband helped navigate a complication we had while we were away and had great communication. We truly appreciate them!!!!!! Look forward to booking her in the future.
Susan was amazing. She sent us daily updates and pictures of how our baby was doing. She provided excellent care, including wound care rebandaging daily. She stayed at our house and was there to keep Sasha company and love on her. We had complete peace of mind knowing that Susan was providing excellent care for our sweet girl.
Robin was great! She arrived on time and took care of our precious pets! She kept us informed and took pictures of the pets, we could see they were enjoying themselves. This was our first time having a pet sitter to our home and Robin made us feel very comfortable and did an excellent job. We will definitely have her back again!
Kevin is an absolute gem! I recently had him watch my two dogs for three days while I was away in Phoenix, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I dropped them off, I knew they were in great hands. Kevin is attentive, caring, and genuinely loves animals — my pups came back happy, well-fed, and clearly well looked after. It’s not easy finding someone you can fully trust with your fur babies, especially for multiple days at a time, but Kevin made the whole experience completely stress-free. I didn’t have to worry for a single second while I was away. He went above and beyond, and it really showed. If you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and responsible to care for your dogs, look no further than Kevin. I will absolutely be calling him again the next time I need a dog sitter. Highly, HIGHLY recommend! 🐾
Danii took excellent care of our 15-year-old dog, Ghetta, in our home for 26 days. She was always quick to respond and consistently sent photos, videos, and daily progress reports. Danii handled Ghetta’s medication and special needs with remarkable attention. We came home to a spotless house and a very happy dog. She even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much!
Cohen was great! He took care of Dennis for 2.5 days. He was very response with messages and updates throughout the entire time. He sent photos of the visits for me to see Dennis having such a great time. I definitely recommend him and hope to use his services again in the future.

FAQs for House Sitting - Edgewood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Edgewood on Rover is $47.18 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 3,238 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edgewood. 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 Edgewood 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 Edgewood 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 Edgewood 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.
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.
