About: I grew up in a pet family and I always had a way of forming special bonds with them. I grew up with cats, dogs, lizards, rodents, and snakes. All creatures are special and unique and deserve care specific to them. I have pretty open availability! I am a barista, and my schedule is really flexible! I typically only work 6 hours a day, so I’m sure I can fit your needs! My pets at home are welcome to free roam. But every situation is different and you understand what your pet needs better than I will. I’ve always been great with direction so tell me what to needs to be done and it will be.

About: I have experience working in a vet office and working with pets. I’ve always loved animals and they gravitate towards me naturally. I am patient, reliable, and calm with all animals. I am working full time, however, I have evenings and weekends available. I currently work 7-3:30pm and I am available after work. My evenings and weekends are yours as needed. With my previous experience of working in a vet office I have experience in working with dogs of all temperaments and sizes. I am confident in maintaining a calm environment.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 6 years, and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love doing. I started by helping friends, neighbors, and family with their pets, and over time I became the person everyone called when they needed someone they could trust. I’m also a Frenchie mom, so I understand how important it is to have someone who treats your pets like family. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities.. Whether a dog is shy, playful, or a little stubborn, I have patience and experience working with different personalities. When I come for a visit, I don’t just do the basics and leave. I make sure your pets get love, playtime, and real interaction so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re gone. Over the years, I’ve helped with feeding routines, medication, crate time, potty breaks, walks, and keeping pets entertained and comfortable. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on making sure pets feel safe and cared for. Your pets will be treated like my own with plenty of affection, attention, and care at every visit. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I currently work part-time from home and make my own schedule. This gives me plenty of flexibility to stop by for visits and walks throughout the day. Whether your pet needs morning, afternoon, or evening care, I’m able to adjust my schedule to make sure they get the attention and love they need. I’m also available on weekends and can often accommodate same-day requests if something comes up unexpectedly. As a Frenchie mom, I know how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. At home, my own dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and walks throughout the day, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow your routines and instructions so your pets feel secure and comfortable. I take my time during visits, make sure they have fresh water, food, exercise, and lots of love. I’m gentle, patient, and treat every animal as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always come first.

About: Hi! My name is Esmeralda, and I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From Chihuahuas and Golden Retrievers to Pit Bulls and everything in between, I've had the privilege of raising and caring for dogs throughout every stage of life. Every dog is different, and I love getting to know their unique personality and needs. Before joining Rover, I regularly provided dog sitting and drop-in visits for family members and members of my church community while living in Puerto Rico. Those and my personal experiences taught me the importance of being dependable, attentive, and treating every pet with the same love and respect I'd want for my own. What sets me apart is that I don't believe in "just watching" your pet—I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I take the time to learn their routine, respect their personality, and give them the attention they deserve, whether that's playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. As a dog mom myself, I understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. My goal is for both you and your pet to have a stress-free experience, with regular updates and plenty of love every step of the way. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work a part-time remote job, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, and plenty of one-on-one attention. As a dog owner myself, I'm already used to feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets receive lots of love and care throughout the day. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make it a priority to keep them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. •Daily Pet Care Schedule 8:00 AM – Morning Routine Morning potty break/walk Fresh water refill Breakfast feeding Morning playtime and attention 12:00 PM – Midday Check-In Potty break Short walk or play session Fresh water check Extra attention and companionship 4:00 PM – Afternoon Activity Walk or outdoor time Playtime and enrichment activities Check on comfort and needs 6:00 PM – Dinner Time Evening meal Fresh water refill Relaxation and affection 8:00–9:00 PM – Evening Routine Final potty break/walk Calm playtime or cuddles Ensure pets are comfortable before bedtime I understand every pet has their own routine, so I’m always happy to adjust feeding, walking, and care schedules based on each owner’s instructions and their pet’s individual needs. In my client's home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including their feeding schedule, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions from their owner. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pet feels comfortable staying in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while keeping owners updated,whether thats through videos or pictures, so they have peace of mind and show how their pets well being. Every pet is treated like family and cared for with the same love and patience I give my own. House Sitting 🐾 ***Please note that my dog, Frida, will accompany me during house-sitting stays. Because she is part of my daily routine, she will be with me throughout the stay. By booking house sitting with me, you acknowledge and agree to Frida being present in your home. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s personality, comfort level, and any concerns during our required meet & greet before accepting the booking.

About: Hi! I’m a dog lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Although I don’t have a dog of my own, I’ve cared for friends and family dogs on multiple occasions and have experience helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and giving them lots of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your pup feels as comfortable as possible. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to providing a safe, loving environment for your pet. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I’ll care for your dog with kindness, respect, and plenty of love. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for evening walks and drop-in visits after work. On weekends, I have much more flexibility, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to pet sitting and making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, and companionship. I’ll always do my best to follow your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I live in a dog-friendly apartment community with access to a fenced dog park and plenty of areas for walks. I also have two other roommates who are comfortable around dogs and help create a welcoming environment. When caring for dogs in my home, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and loving space where they can stick to their normal routine as much as possible. I’ll make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals according to your instructions, and lots of attention and affection. My goal is to help every dog feel comfortable, happy, and at home during their stay.

“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.”

This was our second time having Jayden watch Mars, and once again, the experience was absolutely fantastic. Mars is an incredibly affectionate dog who demands constant love and attention, and she completely matched her energy. It can be tough to find a sitter who truly leans into a velcro-dog's need for endless cuddles and playtime, but she made Mars feel like the center of the universe the entire time. Throughout the stay, I received wonderful updates and photos showing Mars looking completely content and showered with affection. It brings so much peace of mind knowing I can leave my dog with someone who genuinely loves and understands her personality. Jayden is officially our go-to sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for attentive, top-tier pet care!

Cynthia was absolutely wonderful with our boys! She sent us lots of photo and video updates every morning and evening, which we really appreciated and looked forward to while we were away. We could tell that she went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for, comfortable, and having a good time. She was incredibly attentive, kind, and thoughtful, and she also kept our home very tidy throughout her stay. It was clear when we returned that our boys had been in great hands, which alleviated so much of the stress and worry that comes with leaving them behind. They are truly part of our family, so having someone we could trust to care for them so well meant a lot to us. We are so grateful we found her and will absolutely be reaching out again for any of our future pet-sitting needs. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur babies!

Susan was great, she came to our hotel and stayed with our pups while we went and enjoyed Discovery Cove and Aquatica. Meeting Susan before hand was a pleasure and our pups took to her and didn't want to leave her side. We felt very at ease while we were out enjoying the various activities. She sent us pictures and kept us updated with what the pups were up to. This was our first time using Rover and Susan has some very good reviews and she surpassed them with the care and understanding that made our weekend vacation stress free and enjoyable. We look forward to having Susan help us out again when we visit Orlando and our pups really did enjoy spending time with her.

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! 🐾

FAQs for House Sitting - Edgewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Edgewood is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $70 per night. On Rover, 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 3,190 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 , 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.
