“Yesenia is fantastic! She cared for our kitties like they're her own. One, in particular, was going through some health challenges, and Yesenia took extra care to tend to her medication and special diet. She also played with them and kept us updated throughout, including lots of pictures.”
“Will was amazing with Willow and Wick. He was timely, communicative, and reliable. He was so great even our shy cat came out to hang out with him. He even took our puppy for her first run! He sent us pictures and videos of them everyday and if we had questions throughout our trip he responded promptly to them. We will definitely be booking Will for any future things we may need with our fur babies!”
“Emily has turned into a first choice for our fur baby. She makes him feel like a rockstar with walks and cuddles and play time and his own photo shoot. Emily is the main reason I believe in Rover!”
“Kaitlin was a wonderful companion and caregiver to our suite and shy dog Sadie. She came over and stayed with our dog while we were out of town and I could not be more pleased. She won our dog over with her sweetness and caring, and our dog has a hard time trusting anyone! She showed Sadie the love that she needed and was phenomenal! I would hire her again and again!!!!!”
“One of the best sitters I have had some pet sitters on this app are absolutely horrible and have mis treated my Pomeranian.But she was so nice and respectful and did so amazing with my dog highly recommended and I booked her again immediately God bless”
“Fantastic sitter! Super nice, very professional, and took care of our little ones expertly. I love that she sent multiple videos as updates. I could tell they were having a really good time 😁”
About: I am a Dog lover!!! I have experience with my dogs, and I take care of my friends and family dogs when they go out or travel. I would treat your baby like it was mine. Also I would send you an upgrade and pictures so you can see how much fun your dog is having. I think dogs are the best gift a human can have, and that is why they deserve the best care, attention, and Love!! I can provide that to your dog. Sometimes can be overwhelming for them to spend so much hours alone, without attention or without playing, so I would love to be part of that happiness, to take them for a run or walk, go visit them, pet him and play with him. Dogs are our best friends in life, so they deserve to have always the best!
“Sarah was an excellent dog and house sitter. We left for 10 days and felt completely comfortable and at ease with Sarah being with our two dogs. She provided regular updates, gave them snuggles, played with them and was great watering our plants while we were away to keep the house nice. Our dogs love her so it was a match made in heaven!”
“Karilou stayed in our home with our senior dog and puppy while we were out of town and she was fabulous! She sent lots of pictures, reached out if she had questions, and even rescued a little creature in our backyard! Our senior dog needs quite a few pills—and Karilou was sure she give her all her meds. We felt confident and comfortable with Karilou in our home and will 100% book her again!”
“Jennifer is kind, responsive, and very attentive to animals. My dog loved her the moment she walked into the house. It is obvious that she loves animals! She also is timely, responsible, and took great care of my home.”
“Dominique took excellent care of my pups and my place. She followed the dog and house care instructions to the letter. They instantly took to her at the meet and greet. She sent tons of updates and pictures throughout the sitting. Will definitely always book her to care for my pups during any future getaways.”
“I highly recommend Enrique as a dog and house sitter! He was incredibly attentive to my dogs, making sure they were well-cared for, walked, and happy while I was away. He kept my house spotless, which was a great bonus. Enrique also communicated frequently, sending me regular updates and photos of my dogs so I could see how well they were doing. It was clear that he genuinely cared about them, and it gave me peace of mind to know they were in such great hands. I’d absolutely trust him again for any future dog sitting needs!”
“Kahill has a very gentle soft demeanor. My dog went right up to him. She does not do that to everybody. He was always very polite, and Lucy seemed to have been well taken care of upon my return. I would definitely recommend him”
“Haley and Dev were great with both our cat, Andy and our house. They were communicative and attentive. Andy was happy and so were we. Would definitely recommend and use again.”
“Jaelyn has been excellent. She met the dogs before her scheduled time and my dogs quickly grew comfortable with her. One of my dogs had a bad experience with a previous dog sitter and Jaelyn made sure to pay special attention to my dog. She even bought some medication to use on him and helped my dog so much. In fact I feel like she helped nurse him to a better state. Jaelyn is super communicative and transparent. She was really sweet and I am happy to have trusted her with my doggies <3 I would use her services again!!”
About: Hello! I'm Charlie I've been working for over 12 years taking care of children and on occasion, pets. I'm hoping to add more animals to my life as I am going through nursing school, the stress relief and excuse to get outside that furry friends offer is immeasurable! I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs as an occasional sitter/walker and home co-habitant and have had a wonderful feisty cat for over 14 years. (She stays at home unless otherwise specified) I have the most experience with older dogs, and manage to win over even the most tentative of furry family members. (I'm also shy, so I attribute it to mutual awkwardness.) I have experience giving eye drops, disguising medications as treats (or convincing stubbon animals to take medication) and I am experienced in giving injections. I'm more comfortable and experienced with medium and larger dogs , cats of all sizes and temperaments (but i will not turn down the opportunity to make a small dog, bunny, scaley or feathered friend!) . I've experienced some mischievous puppy antics that have led to my finding out that I can keep level headed in an emergency. As I mentioned above, I work in childcare, so I have experience performing work unsupervised in other peoples' homes, am in nursing school (so background checks are no issue) and can provide necessary references if requested to ensure my trustworthiness. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about me and my experience. Thank you. I'm currently in school part-time for my BSN while searching for new grad RN positions and helping out with a local nursing association. I have a very flexible schedule and can often work around your needs. I usually housesit In a client's home while they are away, but am open to drop-ins. I try and follow a furry friend's routine as closely as possible and if I can't on a day, I make sure that they always get enough potty breaks and adjust walks accordingly. I do tend to take the longest walks in the AM (30-45 min) + before bed (30-1 hr) with shorter 15-30 min "potty" walks during the day . I take into account their needs (feeding/medication/b&b evacuation times) & normal excursion times and my schedule and plan the week out in advance. Written instructions help me with daily tasks or pet personality quirks if they are more set in their ways. I'm happy to water plants, gather mail, take out trash and am comfortable communicating with vendors (repairment, pest control etc) if they need to visit when you are away. I treat the home better than I treat my own and aim to maintain (or exceed) the level of cleanliness that existed when I arrived. I'm not shy when it comes to vacuuming, laundering linens & pet bedding as needed while I am staying.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Emerald Hills is $63
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Emerald Hills
Eileengrace cared for our for dogs and home and was amazing! She was available last minute and even squeezed in a requested meet and greet before we left. Her communication is great, she is eager to learn about your pet(s), and follows through. Overall, she is genuinely kind, polite, and most of all, the dogs loved her!
Arianna was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely loves animals and would treat our pup like one of her own. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Arianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!
Jaelyn was absolutely amazing. We’ve been the ringer with dog sitters and Jaelyn came in and was like a dream. She was so responsible with our home and with our pup. She sent a lot of photos and updates that kept us in the loop and was able to take our big dog that pulls a lot on daily walks. We have found our regular dog sitter in Jaelyn and you should as well.
Emily took care of our 3 medium/large dogs and gave us great updates each day, that were very accurate to their personalities and shared adorable pictures of them while we were away! We felt super reassured with Emily and would love to have her watch our pups again! We came home to a clean house and happy dogs!!
Jenna was absolutely amazing with my two animals! She always made sure they were safe and well cared for. I got lots of tickets every day and honest-detailed updates. Jenna went above and beyond, and truly has such a touch to her. My cat, who hates people, warmed within just a day of Jenna arriving. I felt so relieved to have someone so amazing care for them. Thank you again from me, Moon, and Luna! 🐶🐈⬛
Jacob took care of our 8 month old puppy at our house for over two weeks! He was super communicative and responsive. He not only helped us with our puppy, but kept our house neat and taken care of! Our puppy was well attended, she was a happy girl when we returned. He is polite, respectful, and trustworthy! I totally recommend Jacob!
Jane is such a wonderful petsitter! I have two cats that are usually very apprehensive around new people but they love when Jane visits; her patience and gentleness earned my shy boys' trust so quickly! My cats are always happy and in good spirits when I come back so I know they feel safe and well taken care of when Jane is watching them. She also sends awesome pictures and detailed updates with extra info if she notices any behavior changes which always reassure me and help me feel less nervous about being away. Jane is super reliable, trustworthy, and such a fantastic person all around - I would absolutely recommend her petsitting services!
Kimberly was wonderful with my dog and took such great care of him while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and made sure all of his needs were met. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend Kimberly and would happily book with her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Emerald Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Emerald Hills on Rover is $52.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 6,374 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Emerald Hills. 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills 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 Emerald Hills. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
