“Nadia was absolutely amazing!! She took such great care of my baby girl!! she pays great attention to detail and was able to help me a lot when it came to my puppies potty routine. I work overnight shifts so having someone as caring and amazing as Nadia helped ease my anxiety while I was at work! 10/10 recommend💗💗💗. Will definitely be booking with her again!!!”
“Grateful for Jayne’s help with a short sit on relatively short notice. I really appreciated that she spent quality time with my pup and stayed until close to my return, especially given my dog’s nervousness about lingering fireworks. She also sent helpful updates. Thanks, Jayne!”
“Keaton did a fantastic job sitting for our 3 cats. They were so attentive to the instructions we left, understood each cat’s different needs, and made sure to send regular, detailed updates and photos. It gave us such peace of mind to know Keaton was there with our cats - the best experience we’ve had with a sitter on Rover so far.”
“Would absolutely recommend Tristen to dogsit in your home! Tristen was very patient with learning about my pup's quirks and made me feel comfortable that his needs would be met while we were away. Tristen was an excellent communicator throughout and we got some wonderful update pictures of our dog that are frameworthy! My dog was loving life. Tristen also took care of our plants as requested. Much appreciated. Thank you so much Tristen.”
“Really appreciate Jared's attention to detail. Our pets have a somewhat complicated feeding schedule! Communication level was great and gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Alex was amazing with our senior dog. Marvin has both mental and physical issues and Alex was able to earn his trust. He was very respectful of our home, even taking out the trash and emptying the dishwasher. Alex also sent plenty of updates and pictures that kept my anxiety at Bay. We will be using Alex as much as possible!”
“Megan is absolutely stellar! She took great care of our very high maintenance bulldog and cat for a week while we were on vacation. Our pets both have complicated medical needs but Megan was a real rock star in navigating them. She sent us updates with pictures daily and kept us updated during the stay. We came home to very happy animals! We will absolutely call on Megan any time we need future help. Highly recommended!”
About: I have a lot of experience with animals of different sizes breeds and genders so I know the pros and cons and I am prepared to take on a challenge. I am currently, unemployed, so I have all the free in the world to watch and care for your fur baby so don’t be afraid to book me whenever you need I live in a condo with a very open field and multiple dog walking spots and there’s a lot of other friendly dogs your dogs can bond with
“Cora was an excellent sitter that got Ozzy and Dee out for many walks. They loved her and she was attentive and an extremely good communicator which put our minds at ease. Definitely will look to book again and highly recommend to all pet owners!”
“Alayza was very attentive and patient with my pup! Updates and communication were quick and constant. My flight home was delayed but she accommodated the unexpected schedule change. Will definitely be asking for her expertise again! My pup absolutely loved her.”
“Aliyah was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! One of our dogs still has ‘puppy energy’ but she was calm and firm with her. And I swear my house was cleaner than when I left. We absolutely will be booking with her again!”
“Shannon was great and took really good care of Lady! She sent pictures and was very communicative the whole time. I could tell she really cared for Lady while she watched her.”

“Micaela was amazing! She responded to a last minute booking and was very communicative the whole time. She sent pictures and asked questions and my pup loved her! Will definitely book again!”
“Rachel was a truly stellar house sitter/cat-watcher. My spouse and I spent nearly three weeks out of the country and hired Rachel to tend to our needy cat and house while we were away. She put us completely at ease, took wonderful care of our often-whiny kitty, and left our house in perfect condition. We received updates as often as we wanted and it was clear from the photos we received that Rachel has a wonderful touch with animals and was well-loved by our cat. We would hire her again in an instant; her services were well worth the cost.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds and sizes for over 5 years. Coworker and friends trust me with their precious fur babies. I’m patient enough to work with puppies or senior dogs as well. I’m also very comfortable with cats and their different temperaments. I’m currently working part time remotely so I have the flexibility and time to give your pets all the love and care they need. With enough notice I can be available any day of the week at any time. I currently live where there is a pet limit but I am free and available to travel to you to look after any of your pets.
“This is Andrew's second time with Stephanie pet sitting and I know it will not be his last! He was calm and clearly well-cared for when we got home. Andrew is blind so it's not easy for him to have new adventures but Stephanie kept him occupied with massages, games and lots of affection. He is not crazy about taking walks but Stephanie somehow got him to take a 45 minute walk! She sent us detailed updates and funny, adorable photos. I feel very comfortable with Stephanie. We were able to take our trip without worry. Plus, the house was beautiful when we got home.”
“Alexandra was wonderful! She filled in with little notice when another person canceled on us. Alexandra was friendly, communicative and our dogs loved her! She put us at ease especially because this was only our second time using Rover and we had never left our dogs for this long before. I would absolutely recommend her and we definitely hope she will be available when we need her in the future.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Edmonston is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edmonston
We had a wonderful experience with Nadia as our house and dog sitter! This was her first stay with us, and she immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our home and our two dogs in her care. Nadia was incredibly communicative, attentive, and thoughtful throughout her stay. She kept us updated on how the dogs were doing, made sure they were fed and taken outside, and even asked questions about their routines when she wasn’t sure about something. She was also very respectful of our home and followed all of the little instructions we left for her. What really stood out to us was how much she genuinely cared about making sure the dogs were comfortable and taken care of. She even reached out for advice when one of the dogs was giving her a little trouble with his diaper, which showed us that she was patient and willing to make sure she was doing things the right way. By the end of the stay, we felt completely comfortable with Nadia. In fact, we’re having her come back to watch our two dogs for 9 nights while we’re away on our upcoming trip, which says a lot about how positive our experience was. Nadia was friendly, responsible, communicative, and treated our dogs and home with care. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets and their home!
Elise took wonderful care of Albert while we were away! She sent lots of pics and updates, and he seemed very happy and comfortable with her. She also took great care of our house and left it cleaner than it was before we left. We'd happily recommend Elise to anyone in need of a kind, caring, responsible pet sitter! Thanks, Elise!
Megan is an excellent pet sitter! She is very attentive to our dog who is older and requires medicine. She took time to reintroduce herself to our dog so that our dog would be comfortable with her while we were away. Megan is very professional and sends great updates. We can tell our dog was happy and well taken care of. Megan puts a lot of care into her work and we would highly recommend her!
Maria was absolutely fantastic. I loved that she came over for a meet and greet before the sitting. She was always on time and very communicative. Most importantly Halo loved her so much. Maria was so kind and gentle and sweet with Halo. She was really attentive to her needs. I will 1000% be booking her again.
Tyette was fantastic. She sent us pics of all the dogs several times during the week, and offered to stay later on the last day in case our flight was delayed (it wasn't). She knew to keep the dogs inside during the smoke/air quality alert from the Canadian forest fires. We would absolutely hire her again.
Sean was absolutely fantastic! He watched our two Goldendoodles, Leo and Milo, for a full week and did an amazing job taking care of both the dogs and our home. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire stay, sent us regular pictures and updates, and always made sure to ask if there was anything else he could do to help while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs and a house that was in great shape. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Leo and Milo were in good hands while we were gone. We would absolutely trust Sean to watch them again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!
Bryanna was great - very very kind and great with our two cats! She was able to help us a bit last minute and took all of our directions in stride. The cats really liked her and she took excellent care of them while we were away for almost a week. We needed drop in visits and I loved the photo updates she gave each time. She also was willing to look after our disabled gecko, so I highly recommend Bryanna if you also need someone to check in on your reptile!
Sharon was fantastic with our anxiety-ridden pit bull mix, Cookie. She snuggled with Cookie whenever she needed some extra TLC and made sure she got both a morning and an afternoon walk. From the moment we met Sharon, it was clear she has a natural bond with animals that is hard to define. She is easygoing, calm, and, most importantly, updates you daily with a brief summary and pictures of your pet. I would love to have her dog sit again and will definitely recommend her services to friends in the future!
Cannot say enough good things about Keaton. They looked after our 3 cats for two weeks. They capably handled multiple different kinds of meds for each cat, made sure each had their different needs for playtime and feeding met, and did it all with so much care for each. They sent multiple updates every day throughout the 2 weeks, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing the cats were in such good hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Edmonston
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Edmonston on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 10,948 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edmonston. 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 Edmonston 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 Edmonston 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 Edmonston 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.
