“So we were a little worried and skeptical about using rover for the first time but Shauna was amazing with our pets. She sent us updates and pictures of the pets during a difficult time of year due to it being over the new year eve weekend (fireworks). She also took very good care of the house which we appreciate, would highly recommend Shauna to anyone and will definitely be using her again!”
“We have 2 senior dogs and had our 3 y/o frenchie granddog that Faith cared for through the holidays. We came home to 3 well cared for pups. I will be happy to use her in the future. She is responsible and has a gentle way with the senior dogs. She comes highly recommended!”
“Christina is a wonderful sitter! She clearly loves the fur babies and that is a two way street. She is timely, enthusiastic and sends the best videos and pictures. We had a couple of good sitters before Christina but when they weren't available, we had to go back to the Rover-Verse to find another one. She is the first sitter to get the fur babies to eat and handle their outdoor business consistently! We have a rescue dog as well as a cat who has recently transitioned to indoors and they both loved their time with Christina. That is a testament to her positive energy and true love for pets.”
“Kaitlyn was on time, let me know how our dog was doing when she got there and sent us a full report when she was done which included some very cute pictures. As first time dog owners we were nervous about leaving her for this long and having someone come over but Kaitlyn put our minds at ease. I’ve already booked her for another drop in.”

About: I have always grown up with animals in my home, mainly dogs and cats and some small creatures. I currently have two standard poodles. I started out taking care of other people's animals when I was a freshmen in high school with my neighbors' animals. When I started driving, that's when I expanded my services to staying overnight in other people's homes to take care of their animals. I recently graduated from Sonoma State University and taking a gap year before I get my masters degree. So right now, my schedule is pretty flexible and love any animals. Any time that someone needs care for their animals, I’m very happy to help out in any way that I can! When I stay overnight in other people's homes, if your animals need to be crated, I can do that and let them out at night if needed to go to the bathroom. I provide dog walking either morning or night.
“Alexis was amazing with my senior cat! Went above and beyond taking Sheba to her regularly scheduled vet tech appointment and had great communication keeping me updated, with some super cute photos of course!”
“Emily was great! She treated my Tj like her own. I felt very comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. Emily's communication was great and she sent photos of my dog regularly.”
“We are thrilled with the amazing job Frankie did while taking care of our dog, Mochi. From the moment we met Frankie, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Throughout the entire time, she was incredibly caring and attentive to Mochi’s needs. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent us, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Mochi was in good hands. Mochi absolutely loved her, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate puppy sitter. Thank you, Frankie, for your outstanding service!”
About: I’ve grown up with a big group of animals my whole life including, dogs, cats, horses, goats, and chickens.

I’ve been known to be very trustworthy and reliable to my friends and family for pet and housesitting sometimes watching more than one pet at a time while they are out of town! I’m a student right now living on my own. I currently have open availability and i’m looking for a full time job to do while using my passion of pet care to keep me afloat! 🤍 I don’t offer in home services due to having tow cats of my own and too many problems with cohabitation with other animals. But in your home I can adhere to any schedule provided for your furry friends incuding but not limited to, walks, playtime, kennel rounds, backyard fun, medicine, and cuddles.
About: Animal Care and service was my career and my passion for many years, since I was a child.

Loving, Caring for and protecting Animals have always been my passion as well as serving in my community. This is my opportunity to share my home, my passion and my love for animals with your (furry) family member and I am excited about that. I have always appreciated the trust, loyalty and respect given to me by the owners that love their dogs, simply put! It’s just a wonderful feeling to be around all that love. I am officially retired so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family member, I also have a flexible schedule so that I can offer several Animal Care Services I have a gated front yard, fenced rear yard and a secure pool area if your dogs likes to have water fun, additional secure small Animal play Area (my Boston’s love it). The security cameras also give that little extra feeling of safety. I have crates, dog beds and private quiet rooms for the Animals to sleep or rest in if needed so your animal always feels totally at home. (because that’s the real goal!❤️).

About: I’ve been surrounded by tails and paws my whole life, but nothing taught me more about true pet care than raising my own dogs. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach. I treat every pet as if they were my own by giving them the kind of care that makes them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, providing comfort, or playtime, I make sure each moment counts. I’m available for overnight boarding at any time on weekends and weekdays. Doggy day care is available for all hours & days. Drop-In Visits & Walks are available WEEKDAYS : (6:30AM-12PM) or (6PM-8PM) & weekends at anytime .This makes it easy for me to accommodate overnight stays, walks, drop in visits, and day care. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or weekday work trip, you can count on me to keep your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, safety is my top priority. I provide a secure fenced area, pet friendly space that’s free from hazards, with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I make sure food, toys, and rest areas are suited to each pet’s size, age, and needs, and I always supervise to keep everyone safe and happy. I always keep a close eye on pet behavior and health so I can act quickly if something seems off.
“Alexa did a great job watching our dogs! We know they were happy to stay home in their own environment when we went out of town and Alexa came regularly to walk/play with them, let them outside, and feed them. She followed our instructions, kept us updated and asked questions when needed. We will definitely be asking for her to watch our dogs again.”
“Hattie was great with my three pups. The tiny one escaped through the fence, and Hattie got her back inside and propped up the board for me until I was able to get back and fix the fence. Hattie sent pictures and updates throughout her stay and was very communicative and sweet. I’d highly recommend her to care for your animals!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Edmiston is $26 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $26 per night.

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 Edmiston 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 Edmiston 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 Edmiston 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
