“At the moment, I wouldn’t really consider us to be an “easy gig”. We have two Italian Mastiffs, a 110 pound, 6 month old, man-child and a 15 pound 2 month old girl that’s not quite potty trained. Oh, and let’s not forget about the grumpy 13 year old bulldog. Alisha for some reason agreed to watch this house of madness for the weekend and handled it like a true professional. We received regular updates and tons of photos that helped set our mind at ease. We came home to three happy pups and a house that’s still standing. I can’t recommend her enough and I hope we didn’t scare her away. ?”
“This was our first time traveling without our dog and Katelyn made the experience so much less stressful! She stayed in our home, gave updates with pictures and took such good care of our dog! We are grateful!”
“I am very happy I chose Mamie to dogsit my Rosie for my week long vacation. She sent regular updates about Rosie’s mood, activities and cute little anecdotes, as well as lots of pictures. Besides the updates Mamie was quick to reply to messages and was even so kind as to pick up a refill that Rosie needed. I would definitely rebook her :)”
“Makala is everything you want in a pet-sitter. Prompt to respond, extremely accommodating on hours and way underpriced given her experience and expertise. More importantly than all these things, however, is that Rover is not a side hustle for her so much as a natural extension of her every day. She's professionally trained to care for others' pets and so clearly enjoys doing so. Speaking from my experience, she's very good at it, too.”

“Mike was absolutely wonderful. He watched our pups in our home and I felt safe and stress free. My dogs were in such great care. They loved him... maybe a little too much! I would definitely book with him again.”
“Rachel was a wonderful in-home dog sitter. In addition to being a perfect house guest, she was so kind and caring to my senior pup. She was communicative and left everything in perfect order. Ziggy says he would highly recommend her and would give her 6 stars if he could!”
About: I’m an experienced in-home pet sitter and lifelong animal lover with 17 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and abilities. I’ve raised and cared for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to beloved seniors. My own Westie, Jack, is currently 17 years young! Through caring for my own animals over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience providing specialized care, including: * Administering oral medications (pills and liquid medications via syringe) * Administering prescribed subcutaneous fluids * Ear cleaning and administering ear drops * Assisting mobility-impaired dogs with support harnesses and wheelchairs * Some experience with canine bladder expression and caring for paralyzed dogs My experience with senior and special-needs pets is especially personal. When my German Shepherd, George, became paralyzed during the final year of his life, I learned firsthand how to help him navigate daily life with limited mobility. Today, my senior Westie, Jack, occasionally needs extra assistance getting around, so I’m familiar with using support harnesses and carrying aids to keep him comfortable and included in everyday activities. These experiences have taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of recognizing each animal’s individual needs. I understand that some pets require a little extra attention, while others simply need a dependable companion to keep their routines familiar. Whether your furry family member enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a quiet afternoon of companionship, I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, abilities, and established routine. I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide the same kindness, patience, and attention I’d want for my own animals, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. From playful puppies to golden oldies, every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I offer flexible scheduling for in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I especially welcome overnight and extended stays, and I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s established routines, including feeding, exercise, medications, and companionship. I understand that every pet and household has unique needs, so I encourage open communication before booking to make sure my availability and your expectations are a great match. My calendar will reflect my current availability, and I’m happy to discuss upcoming dates in advance! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own homes, I strive to maintain their familiar routines and environment while providing plenty of attention, affection, and appropriate activity. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, household rules, and any special care requirements. I’m particularly attentive to senior pets and animals with mobility challenges, ensuring they receive the patience, assistance, and supervision they need. I also believe communication is essential to building trust. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are doing well. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I’d give my own, leaving things clean, secure, and just as I found them.
“Kacy was wonderful! Birch absolutely loves her and he was very, very well cared for. Kacy was extremely good with communication. She shared many pictures and ‘Birch stories” with us during her stay which was much appreciated. Kacy went above and beyond to help with something non-Birch related while we were gone as well. When we returned, we couldn’t even tell that she had been here, everything was exactly as we had left it! We will definitely be checking her availability the next time we travel!”
“I interviewed Gabby in my home and observed her to take notes, si as yo follow my Instructions yo a tee. After a detailed meeting, I hired her to stay overnight in my home with my dog Oliver for 4 nights while I was out of town. Oliver is ten years old and needs medication every twelve hours. I found Gabby to follow the schedule I left for her and was dependable. She respected my home and requests. I would hire her again.”
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. My goal is to provide reliable care and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My schedule is very consistent, which allows me to provide reliable care for your pets. During the week, I'm available after 3:30 PM for walks, drop-in visits, and evening care. I also have morning availability on Mondays and Fridays before noon. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or a check-in while you're away, I'll work to provide the care they need and keep them happy and comfortable. When caring for pets, I treat them like members of my own family. I make it a priority to learn each pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I provide attentive, personalized care while maintaining the routines they're used to at home. I also keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are happy and in good hands.
About: I've been around dogs for at least 8 years. Friends and family rely on me to dog sit or cat sit. I will spend quality time with your pets, feed them according to your guidance, and care for them as if they were my own. I have a consistent work schedule which makes scheduling simple. I can board pups on weekends and weekdays after 3pm. I work close by and can stop at home to put the pups out. I have a fenced yard and have 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I spend quality time playing with pets and ensuring that they are being safe.
“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”
“Chelsea was so great with our dogs, we have one that can be particularly difficult and she handled her like a dream. Great communication and updates; we will for sure use her again in the future.”
“Emma was great with our 3 dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. I got multiple updates with photos and our girls were obviously comfortable with her. We came home to a clean house, she even had our bedding in the wash when we got home. We definitely recommend with her and will keep her on our short list of pet sitters for the future.”
“Gretchen always does a wonderful job for my boy Comet! She takes great care of him and he's always happy to have a weekend with her when we need a little help from a sitter 😊”
“Francesca was so sweet. She did an excellent job caring for Sarge, going above and beyond by taking him on extra long walks (which are his favorite!) and was great with communication/sending pictures and updates. She also left the house spotless!!”
About: Look no further for a responsible, loving companion for your pet. I love every animal as if it were my own. I have a senior small dog of my own, and before that I had experience walking and caring for my neighbors' dogs when I was younger. Outside of Rover, I have multiple clients I regularly house-sit for with pups of all ages/sizes. I've also volunteered with shelter dogs! I also have experience with other animals if required. In my home I have 3 wonderful cats as well as my dog! I've worked with rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, and am eager to learn about anything else. My top passion is pets. My availability is flexible, but I prefer a heads up at least a week in advance to coordinate accordingly. I am also a trained groomer, so I have experience in all grooming aspects, dog handling, and dog body language. My own pup is reactive, so I am incredibly comfortable and confident in handling your pet if they have behavioral issues as well. DISCLAIMER: I require a meet and greet prior to any daycare stays in my home, for everyone's comfort. Everyone's safety is of the utmost importance, including your pets' and mine. While one of my cats is very elusive, the other loves dogs and so does my dog! I am great about fitting some care into my day even on shorter notice. My routine is usually just hanging out at home and popping out to grab a coffee a few times, so I'm available to your pet nearly 24/7! Please let me know any special care instructions! Unless otherwise stated, I always let pups out every couple of hours, feed once a day and always give fresh water. Some dogs prefer to be leashed when outside but others will go on their own so please notify me of your preference! My main priority is keeping your pet happy and safe.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edgeworth
Brianna was fabulous taking care of our senior dog and two cats. Our senior dog is blind so we were very hesitant to leave her but Brianna sent photos and texts of our pets while we were away and provided us with twice a day updates. I would highly recommend using Brianna.
Nicole went above and beyond caring for our senior dog and our puppy mill breeder mama who has yet to fully adapt to a loving life . During her 2wk stay, not only did she provide basic care, but also dealt with potty problems, storms, loss of power, and a bear issue which caused a major trash situation. In the end, she left our home spotless. Our doggies were very happy. We are definitely using Nicole again!
Esmirna is kind, gentle and calming. She helped me feel reassured and secure that my three pets (2 dogs and a cat) would be well cared for and they were. We came home to three very relaxed pets and a home in perfect condition. She sent a daily update w photos and followed a not so easy routine that included multiple pet meds. She was attentive to every detail and very thorough as well as professional. We greatly appreciate her effort, care and consideration. She made things easy and void of any complications!

The average cost of House Sitting in Edgeworth is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 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.

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 Edgeworth 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 Edgeworth 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 Edgeworth 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Edgeworth. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
