“Morgan was fantastic! This is my first experience with a pet sitter and I am beyond impressed! My dogs absolutely love Morgan. She was so attentive to their individual needs and sent multiple text updates, pictures and video. I was totally at ease while away from home. Morgan went above and beyond with my boys and even took care of laundry and cleaning. My home was actually in better condition than when I left. I cannot recommend Morgan enough and I will absolutely use her in the future. Give her a try! I guarantee that you will be beyond impressed!”
About: Over the past 15 years, I have had experience in a wide variety of breeds, temperaments and energy levels. I approach each pet uniquely, considering specific routines, quirks and comfort zones. I’m observant of their body language and attuned to signs of discomfort, anxiety, feeling safe or calm. I am comfortable caring for them at home or on a walk. I have experience giving animals medication’s and adhering to strict diets. I am happy to send you photos & videos as well as check in’s on how your fur baby is doing. I’d love to give my full attention to your pet—they deserve it! Right now I’m able to fit daily or weekly routine and I’m available at any time right now. I’m available most times of the day. I am able to take your dog for walks or take care of them at your home where they are comfortable. And play with them in your backyard.
“Emily was extremely kind, honest, and helpful. She watched our house and 3 dogs for us while we were out of town for an entire week. She communicated and sent pictures throughout the day to keep us updated on the dogs and when she was leaving the house. I had so much peace of mind knowing she was there. She even did the laundry and tidied up! Would definitely recommend and I’m sure we will book with Emily again 💚🐶”
“Heidi was great! My boys took to her well and she went above and beyond taking them on multiple walks a day and sending me pics and consistent and updates! Will definitely use her again!”
“Timia was great to our pups while we were away! She was a joy to get to meet beforehand. She took her time letting the dogs get to know her. Dogs seemed to have a great time with her here, and we came home to two well cared for pups. Thanks Timia for easing our minds while we were away, and loving on them extra well. If schedules align, we will definitely have Timia back!”
“Shirley is wonderful with our dog who doesn't like to be left anywhere without us! She enjoyed Shirley's company, got in some walking (her passion) and was content when we got home. Shirley pays attention to details and was very thoughtful. Thanks so much!!”
About: Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve looked after pets for friends and family treating each one like my own. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience, I make sure every animal gets the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my home, they’ll enjoy a calm, loving environment with plenty of play, cuddles, and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine so they feel secure and comfortable. I make sure they’re well-fed, exercised, and given lots of love while you’re away. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get the time and attention they deserve. While I work Monday–Thursday from 8–5, I’m available before and after work for walks, feedings, and quality time. I have full availability on weekends, so I can dedicate extra time for play, longer walks, and overnight care.
“Sheryl was amazing with my fur babies. They love her!! She was great at communicating!! She sent pictures and they all looked happy and content. Sheryl is super nice and kind she definitely has love for animals. I would highly recommend her and we will certainly have her sit with our fur babies again. I didn’t have to worry about them and totally trusted her taking care of them and house sitting. Thank you Sheryl for doing an amazing job!! Leonard,Olive,Henrietta, and Hazel say thank you and can’t wait for the next time you sit with us!!”

About: I grew up in a household full of animals, three dogs and three cats. I’ve experienced my fair share of pets needs for as long as I can remember. I also love to foster puppies when I get the chance, even though they can be really tricky. I raised my puppy malibu during quarantine and took care of her constantly making sure she was potty trained and getting all her puppy energy out. I also know how to treat older pups because of one of mine that recently passed away due to health issues. she was diabetic and needed insulin shots daily and constant care. I’m currently a junior at the university of south carolina and love to care for animals during my free time. I’m constantly fostering from the local shelter to help out in any way I can. I normally take long walks with them in between class and play outside to give them the attention they deserve. I live in an animal friendly apartment that has a dog park and plenty of outside area to walk around and play. I always make sure the animals needs come first so they always have water, food, and plenty of toys.
“What a godsend! We were hesitant to take a trip as our Benji has high anxiety but Meghann was an absolute gift! She took such great care of our pup and our home. She provided outstanding communication with updates and pictures that made our time away so much more relaxing. We couldn’t believe how Benji warmed up to her. She’s a whisperer! Our home was tidy and clean and she even came back and stayed with our Boy since our return was delayed. Five stars are not enough…. We will definitely book her again and again.”
“Mallory is an exceptional person and the best sitter we could have had for our puppy, Yuki! She was attentive, empathetic and friendly, giving us updates and sharing how she was handling any problems that came up during the night (and cute photos). We felt totally trusting of her being in our home, caring for Yuki and that they both were having a good time! In fact, when we came home, Yuki was having a hard time saying bye to Mallory! They already had such a sweet bond in just 4 short hours ?. We would highly recommend her to anyone with a young dog who is still learning how to be on its own— she made ours feel so safe and happy!”
“Chris was amazing!! We were able to leave Remi home and know that he was being taken care of. He was accommodating at the last minute— Definitely a life saver! Will be recommending him to friends and using him for future sittings.”
“Hannah is an absolute joy and took care of our baby as if she was her own! Never worried about a thing while we were away. She is our girl for all of Freckles' needs! Thank you Hannah!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Edmund on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Edmund. 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 Edmund 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 Edmund 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 Edmund 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Edmund. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
